[Q] Best ROM for TMOUS Sensation?

In my humble opinion, it is quite annoying how they aren't giving these ROM threads any prefixes as to if they were designed on foreign devices or US devices.
For the TMOUS Sensation owners, which ROM are you using? And why?
I have been using the Senseless Extreme 2.0 for awhile...it is lite but I have been noticing some lag and often the sliders on the lockscreen disappear and I have to slide my finger across an empty area to unlock the phone..

Android Revolution 3.0.4 is amazingly fast and stable on my TMOUS Sensation. You won't be disapointed.

TMOUS here and I have tried a few roms, from the ARHD, Leedroid, Virtuous and now on Coredroid. All have there pluses and minus'.
But I look for roms that still keep most of what I want, regardless of Tmous or not. If it has wifi calling and is mainly in English then I'll try it. So for coredroid with the latest faux kernel is smooth and fast for me. No lag to speak of.
Have you tried insert coin? I haven't but many others have said that has been the fastest rom thus far.

I'm on T-Mobile USA also, InsertCoin is by far the best rom I've used so far on this phone and the only rom I've used. It's fast and great support and gets updated many times a week. The dev is always in the thread helping out, looking for bugs and whatnot. Great rom, I'll be using it until I get bored of Sense, and hopefully then Badnewz will start also dev-ing asop roms too.

Most ROMs should have no problem running on TMOUS phones. Some people have problems with radios, but you can always try different ones. I've been using InsertCoin for weeks with the recommended radio with no problems even though it's been based off the European ROM. Flash different ROMs until you find the one that works best for you. There are some based off the TMOUS ROM if you want to start there.

Insertcoin 2.4.2 + 0.1.2 faux kernal. thats perfect. smooth and fast. then flash t6he latest radio. sure work with tmous sensation. enjoy.

Are you using the NoHz or the JRCU edition of the faux kernel?

Battery life
Those who have tried multiple ROMs which would you say gives you the best battery life?

Flash JRCU 1.56ghz work very fast and stable (no bug) on my lovely sensation !!

Frankinstine and eavleblood are 2 tmo based Roms. I'm using frankinstine right now and so far so good. It was also updated today with some nice features. Havnt had a chance to flash update yet

ARHD 3.0.4 with faux NoHZ 0.1.2 1.56 kernel.
Absolutely smooth and fast, no lag and very good battery life.

I've tried several, but by far, in my opinion, the best two are InsertCoin and Android Revolution HD 3.0.4. The new Faux kernel makes both of these run fast and smooth.
Honestly I still can't decide which of the two I like more. Try them out.

I'm using Android Revolution HD 3.5.0 and want to try other roms. If not satisfied I'll go back to stock rom.

I don't care too much for HTC Sense - AOSP guy myself. The XboarderMOD 1.0.5 ROM - which is based on CM7 is pretty cool. Phone feels so fast with sense gone.

yep, u got to luv getting rid of sense/bloat for speed!

I'm on LEEDROiD myself. Since he's UK based, I just gotta change the gps.conf and change the horrendous lockring, then I'm good to go. Took a look at the other ROMs, but saw no reason to switch. Tried CM7, but came back after a week.
Good battery life, really stable, works really well in general. It's what Sense should have been imo.

Pretty much personal opinions. Why not read through the forums in the Dev section and make a selection.
I'm on Insertcoin currently but have tried quite a few before settling on a couple.
YMMV

There are a few. Miui releases every two weeks or so, ARHD, InsertCoin, Pyramid 3D, Senseay, and LEEDROiD release pretty frequently.
I would say ARHD, InsertCoin, and Pyramid are currently the best supported right now. I'm running Pyramid.
Sent from my HTC Sensation

I would agree with ARHD,Insert Coin updated regularly -its depending on what you are looking for Miui is just getting off the ground but the official version you can update through Rom Manager makes it sweet CM7 is also starting up my personal daily is Insert Coin if your looking for a stable sense Rom I would also Recommend CoreDroid V2.5 updates are slow to come but when they do they have little to no issues the thread is organized and easy to understand and most of its members are there to help

insertcoin gets updated daily sometimes lol

I'll get round to doing it soon. Thanks guys

I would second that. Its added features are very useful and its performance is top notch. Dev for it is pretty cool too. There really is no perfect rom and I feel like how it is installed can make or break its performance.
I would advise you to try them all out and then settle down. Don't waste so much time flashing, it's really a waste of time when all will probably work fine. And don't always go with the newest versions. Like for instance, I've found ARHD 3.11 to be the best one as far as performance for that rom.

Google for HTC Sensation - Android 4.0.4 Sense 4.1 Firmware (based on stock Ville C RUU 2.31.401.5) by Mikhei777
Is a very nice real HTC-stock-feel ROM, that's currently supported 24/7.
No tweaking tools, no custom themes/icons, based on original HTC pyramid-ics-crc-3.0.16-31a4fc7 - just a pure working HTC Sence 4.1
Weird, but this guy is not on XDA

Team Venom Roms
Team Venom support their ROMs very well. Not many updates recently because they were working on their 3.0.0 ROM but I'm sure that will be getting updated as frequently as their previous ROM when it was being developed.

Which ROM are you using on sensation v3[44 ROMs]

Hello,
Lets see which ROM has more fans, now we have ICS
And tell what ROMs did you test it, and if you wanna, some ROM opinions

Wow so many ROM's to choose ..
But will just stick to. CD for GB, Extreme and DF for ICS

Blitz 5 is rockin! And blitz 6 is on the horizon!!

ARHD 6.21 here, although I wish I'd stayed with 3.6.13. I'm not getting any FCs with 6.21, but after a few days everything slows down to a crawl, especially the browser. Not mike's fault, the base is buggy.

---------- Post added at 03:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 AM ----------
blitz 6 is my daily driver

Still on Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread) + Sense UI 3.0 + Beats Audio.
Will wait for the stable release of ICS before i upgrade.

ARHD 3.6.13. I have tested ARHD 6.2.1, but too many bugs
I am willing to try new rom. I will wait couple of days to see what is result of this pool. Maybe InsertCoin?

Virtuous Inquisition, for me is the best

I've tried a few ICS ROMS
Android Revolution HD
ELEGANCIA
HyperNonSense
Virtuous Inquisition
I've tried all of the above ROM's over the past few weeks. But I'm back to ARHD 6.2.1 at the moment. I've installed the APM, Extended Quick Settings, and stock battery % mod. Pretty happy with it.
One day I might get round to flashing the no-sense script to get rid of some of the HTC junk.
I wasn't a big fan of Sense at first. But now it has grown on me. I'm just not a big fan of the AOSP look. Biggest gripe is the new ICS look functionality of the people app.

obviously insertcoin 4.5.4 the best out there

I've tried most, if not all. Every time I keep coming back to InsertCoin.

ARHD 6.2.1 is the best.
I have tried many but I returned back to my lovely ARHD the most stable with no bugs at least for me..
Shnizlon v.21.1 works perfectly with no errors.

Virtuous Inquisition is where is at. It feels like a refined AOSP ROM, feels complete. Is so elegant. It even has the sense camera.
Amazing ROM!

[Q] What's ROM is better for you?

Good evening
I just read the new ViperSs 1.0 ROM and it looks awesome! I have ARHD 6.6.7 with faux kernel and HQ camera MOD, and I want to change to something new, maybe Sense 4.0 based on news HTC's or non-Sense ROM (Cyanogenmod or MIUI).
I like CyanogenMod, but there is no stable version yet.
MIUI has a spanish stable version based on v2.4.27.
ViperSs ROM have only one bug: HDMI out doesn't work, but it isn't a problem for me. ARHD and ViperSs are very similar in features, but ViperSs use bricked kernel. I didn't use it before, but it seems very good.
Is there another ROM with new features? What ROM you recommend me?
Thank you in advance!

I'm downloading ViperSs now at the moment ARHD 6.6.4 and I haven't used any other Rom in my Sensation, so is the moment to try another one

I think so. ARHD is a very stable ROM, but I want something new and I want it now! xD I'm waiting for your first impression of ViperSs =)

It all comes down to your personal
taste. I always liked the sense look and feel. I'm running the new Viper ROM right now and it is really fast.

Obligatory mention of MIUI. Now that certain websites are building for the Sensation from source, AOSP and Sense based, you get some serious performance and some really great software.
But that's only if you want to let go of Sense.

i agree its just to hard to let go of the htc camera and a couple widgets that cannot be matched on any other rom.

i prefer NonSense roms, caus i dont like sense, and rom is much smoother without it...
i like Asop but for me, battery life is not as good as on sense based roms...

just moved to viperss, after using arhd such a long time and i believe sense 4 is a little faster in applications however scrolling is very slow on all sense 4 roms, i tried elegancia, ordroid, insertcoin evolution and at the end viperss all have scrolling problem, maybe not a problem but i got used to scroll fast

Trying out viper now. So far amazing battery life and the viper tweaks are cool!

Thank you to all. I think I'll try ViperSs ROM and if I don't like it, I'll try non-Sense ROM like MIUI.
CM not is a stable ROM, that's true. My girlfriend has CM 7.2 and she has some important bugs...
I'll post my experiences with new ROMs! ;-)
Thank you again!

tray ORDROID 9.0 very stable and sense 4.0. bricked is one of the best kernels I have tested... so i recommend that combination... good luck!

I think you will be happy with viper.i know the battery life seemed better than ordroid . I'm actually quite shocked at how great the battery is on viper. Its always been a issue in the past now its great. Also haven't tried yet but wifi tethering is supposed to work. Only bug reported so far is HDMI output. I'm running now will try out tethering soon.

One question, What wipe I have to use to flash viperS ROM? SuperWipe of ARHD or wipe all data of 4EXT Recovery?
I suppose that the method is:
.- Backup old ROM, apps and SMS/contacts (personal information in general).
.- Reboot into recovery
.- Wipe all.
.- Install from SD card
END =)

The ViperS installer makes a full wipe at the beginning I think...let's see, when I changed from ARHD to ViperS I flashed "ARHD Super Wipe", then wipe all from 4ext, and then flashed the new rom btw I remember that those wipes deleted my games data (like N.O.V.A. or Asphalt downloaded data)...the "Android" folder one.

I second the notion.
If the stock look and feel with a bit more stability are your criteria then ARHD is your choice.
However if you want some more options, tweaks, and customized UI then explore some of the other sense ROMS.
If Sense is critical to you, avoid all AOKP AOSP and Cyanogen ROMS.

Don't be lazy and find it yourself.

ARHD ftw if you like sense

revolution hd would be my recommendation as well

After root, flash showp1984 kernel.
No need ARHD.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium

I would recommend insert coin. It is so much faster tan ARHD in my opinion.

You should try a few! Currently on Frankinstine's JB aokp. Happy flashing!

Vipers 1.1.0 is quite good. I keep getting bored of Sense ROM's so I keep switching .

On my Sensation I prefer something light and fast. I currently using JB AOKP and trying out the JB MIUI as well. Try AOKP, MIUI, or AOSP builds as they make the Sensation a lot faster. If you want a Sense build ARHD and Baadnews are good. If you want Sense 4.0 then try ViperS rom.
After you try out a rom for a couple of days, then try out a Kernel. There are a few different options, depending if you do a AOSP or Sense base Rom.

I have used Virtuous Inquisition for a long time now. Not a single problem. Fast, Excellent battery life, and very stable.

I would also recommend ARHD.
You may also want to check out Virtuous Inquisition if you can do without Sense. I was running it for quite a few months and it was great. Long battery life and stable.
Check out a few and see what you like the most.
-----------------------------
Current Device: HTC Sensation 4G S-off/Super CID
Current Rom: CyanogenMod 10 (Bruce2728 Beta)
Previous Rom: Virtuous Inquisition
Kernel: Stock
Recovery: 4EXT
Previous Device: NexusOne

ARHD for stock look and its fast (slightly better battery life than stock) Downside its Sense 3.6
Viper S little slower compared to ARHD but tons of tweaks and Sense 4.0 (same battery as ARHD)
Happy hunting.

Hi there, you really need to try SEVERAL out for yourself because what might be right for someone else might not at all be what your looking for! Everyone has different opinions and its ALWAYS best to form YOUR own opinion. This is the fun part the experimentation! Please take my advice , read the change logs on the roms, if one catches your eye, try it! Make sure you do to your nandroid backups and shop around.we are fortunate to have so many available! Do your self a favor and try out many!
