Since the SideKick has heavy social integration you might like the Sense based OSs. 2.37 VU is an uber OS.

I recommend virtuous unity v2.39.0, which have been proved to be fast, stable and battery efficient. I'm currently using the lastest virtuous release virtuous affinity v1.46.0. Everything with this rom seems fine so far.

so my advice to you would be just try them all till you find 1 you like
Here comes 20 posts about cm7 >_>...
Thanks for the info I do understand that and I guess I'm looking for other combo's Rom and kern. That work well together. But I will try others.

I think I may have opened a can of worms. I did read about cm7 and see pros and cons. I have been looking at leedroid's Rom. Mudknot I would like to thank you for your guide very nice. Do you have any recommendation's?

As doo doo said and I have said in other threads, there is no "BEST" rom. They all are good in their own right, and all of them have their downfalls some more then others.
I have flashed all of them, and I like some more then others. Honestly its all personal preference.
Leedroid for stability and battery with all the features working. CM 7 for the stock feeling but has terrible drain TERRIBLE
I like the sense ones.
However I almost always return to a stock. The best to me are stock with all the bloat ripped out. There is no need to OC yet as the phone is plenty fast. Maybe in 4 or 5 months. /Shrug
I've been using RCmixHD for quite some time and I love it. They just realeased a new rom with SENSE 3.0 and it's beautiful. This latest rom is quite new and there are some improvements that I know will come with some time.
As everybody here will tell you, you will need to experiment and make your own decision on which is best for you.
Stock and Inpired Ace for me.
I am loving team phoenix's new rom. Takes the best of cm 7, + lord mods smartass kernel and makes a very smooth and battery efficient offering.

I really like RCMix Kingdom ROM. It is a work in progress, but sense 3.0 is pretty sweet in my opinion. But like others have said, it all comes down to your own personal preferences. Have fun with it and just go flash crazy lol
I'm loving konikubs elite 3 and kings cocoa 2.

I'm liking Android Revolution right now, but I'm just getting into this whole thing of flashing and what not. I had CoreDroid before, but just found it a bit too complex/too many options for now. Android Revolution to me seems somewhat like stock, but just better optimized. But I plan on trying some other ROMs out there, looking at some of the RCMixes and maybe LeeDroid's

Revolution is a very nice Sense based Rom, I flip back to that one when I get a taste for Sense.

Why not try them both?
Both are awesome you can't go wrong

I have used both RCMix for over a month and have had VU for almost a month. I liked RCMix, but in my honest opinion VU has it beat all to Hell in terms of stability, speed and overall performance. I would not go back to using RCMix.
Havent tried rcmix3d but I can tell you that unity works amazkng and I have been using it for around two months and don't expect to switch soon. It's so stable that I feel like my inspire came with sense 3.0

Took the words right out of my mouth. I can't say one is better than the other as I haven't tried rcmix3d either, but it's hard to imagine anything running better than VU
I installed VU yesterday, and while it's only been a day, I'm loving it.
However, VU is currently on hold and development may not ever start again. If you go to their website there's a blog about how people have been stealing their work and they're being disrespected, and they're sick of it, understandably. So while VU may be the best choice today, it seems like that could change.
Having said that, just try'em both!

Oh nice! I dunno, I just read the blog and assumed they would've updated the website once they reached a decision. I'm too lazy to sort through the hundreds of pages in the thread. (Yep, I'm one of those people!)

Is RCMix Kingdom the ROM that has the "noob"video for the bootanimation?...I think I reacall it is. I would have tied it, except the descriptions of this kinda turned me off before I even tried it...nevertheless I might someday. Of course bootanimations can be changed.
Thank u very much everyone i have installed Virtuous Unity and i m lovin it

what is the difference between sense 3.0 and 3.5? and which one was on the stock sensation 4g?
3.0 came on sensation 4g
i think that we needed a new platform to support these new senses 3.0 and 3.5
InsertCoin is the best ROM for the Sensation hands down. Performance and battery life is outstanding.

This is funny!
I would say you try by yourself and decide for yourself, Everyone has different opinions and will probably give you their own personal perspective.
You might have a different opinion and like something else or maybe not. just flash the most used ones and see if you like them and go from there.

I agree with this guy here as opposed to the other two members. I've tried BOTH roms listed and they're basically the same. Just very ever so slightly different. I used to use ARHD but then I started using other roms because Mike doesn't update his often. InsertCoin gets updated pretty good but I experience issues once in a while (it's nothing severe though) and it's not a bad rom at all. I'm using bulletproof though because I love all the mods he adds on. It's really up to you, gotta try and find out what you want and like.
Agree that it's up to you to try, test, tune, etc what's best for your needs & likes! Take a deep read in the Development section...happy flashing!
CM7 is the best rom on sensation by far.
CM7.

I started using custom ROMs with my G1 and CyanogenMod. I stuck with that exclusively for a really long time through different devices. Since it has taken a while for CM to come out on the Sensation, I started flashing all kinds of different ROMs. That's the beauty of Android and XDA. You can try all kinds of stuff out and decide what you like the best. I currently use Android Revolution HD 4.1.3 (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3.5) with the Amaze camera. I'll use this until a stable version of CM comes out with a better camera. I also use ADW.Ex launcher. This works for me for now because it has a really nice camera, but I've tried a TON of ROMs. Whatever you do, ALWAYS search for answers, use the appropriate forums (General, Q&A, Themes & Apps) properly, and have fun.

Cm7. If I want a sense buzz I'll go with bulletproof 2.15. You can't beat those tweaks.

I checked the following thread and made my decision: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200118
I don't want to give recommedations since there are a couple of awsome mods floating out there...
If you like Sense and eye pleasing colours and animations go with CoreDroid. Wipe battery stats when you flash a new rom (made a big difference for me).

CoreDroid vs Elegancia?

Which one is better?
I'm running Elegancia right now and its very smooth...but CoreDroid seems similar with lots of good.feedback too.
So all you flash-aholics have feedback from using both?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I have tried Elegancia.... looks cool to me... not tried CD...... rightnow on Energy....
Very stable, smooth and bug-free ROM
I have been running Coredroid since Sergio started cooking ROMS for it. If you like Sense it's great, no need for weekly updates because the releases are great from the start. They have a great team, lots of support and great themers. Try it for yourself, it's really the only way for you to decide.

New user from Mytouch 4G forums

Hey everyone tomorrow morning I'm getting my sensation and can't be more excited.
Just wanted to say tomorrow I will be rooting my phone asap
Any suggestions on some good starter Roms?
This forum is 100 times larger and more active then the mytouch 4g forums

awesome bro i remember seeing you in those forums I too switched
as for roms depends whether you want sense or not
MIUI is perfect AT this moment. based on the HTC ICS Base so you get both the camera and everything else working.
Official HTC Rom like ARHD, coredroid etc - Stable and fast rom with Sense 3.6(personally dislike Sense but you can install a mod to make it just like stock android, look under themes and apps)
CM9 - video camera doesnt work so well, bluetooth no go,
sense 4 - camera not so much with no autofocus, but almost good enough
I suggest - ICS stock rom with HTC base. like hypernonsense

Good luck!

I came from mt4g and found the sensation easier to root. I am running coredroid on the mt4g and on my sensation. The mt4g is for my son, he bought one off a kid at school for $20, because the kid didn't like the battery life. I am real happy with coredroid on both phones. Just make sure to go through a few battery cycles before judging any of the roms, most will break in and give great battery life in a few days, at least in my experience.
+1 for ARHD - its the most stable, the most fastest and the support is amazing.... (IMO)
I highly recommend trying it out. Throw in Sebastians kernel and having a Full day AND a half battery wont be a rarity any more.
there are a lot of guides on how to flash it, Its the most popular ROM, The guides are fairly simple, and if you dont like it, flash to something else
