what is the difference between the three? are they suppose to be combined? which one is most useful for the sensation
The kernel is a small file that you flash that pretty much runs the phone... And tells it how to run. A Rom is the actual OS on the phone.. it's everything you see. A theme just changes the look of the Rom... Usually wallpaper and menu color etc....
I guess if I had to compare it to a car... Kernel = engine
Rom = car
Theme = paint job

LOL, a ton of answers to that, most folks have personal preferences. It's the most often asked question.
I guess the first question is Sense or AOSP based. This is a more fundamental change than the Theme. Using the car analogy, 4 x 4 with loads of bling vs a pruned down sports car. ;-)) Then again I use CM7 as I wanted a lighter (ASOP) system.
Best advice is to flash a few ROMs and decide for yourself. They are all good, just some do bits better than others. Just remember to take plenty of Nandroid backups so you can revert back if needed.
EDIT: Meant to add that any ROM you install will also include a "base" kernel. So install a ROM and it's good to go.

If you want a non-Sense ROM, I think that CM7 is the best, very smooth, stable. CM9 with Ice Cream Sandwich should be out soon too. I use bricked kernel, but faux is very good too.
If you want a Sense (3.0 or 3.5) ROM, InsertCoin or Revolution HD are both very good, pick one, try and decide ;-)
so when you take nandriod backup for your current ROM, how do get back to it for extraction? and how do do you back up 2 ROMs without deleting the other? where do the back ups go (SD card or internal)?

Hi,
Nandroid backups are stored on your sd card in /sd card/clockworkmod/backup.
You can make as many as your sd card can hold.
In order to get a ROM back,simply "restore" it from within CWM.
firmware vs ROM
sorry for stupid question, although I wanna ask what is the difference between firmware and ROM? is flashing the firmware the same thing as flashing ROM?
Firmwear is kinda like what runs the Rom, if you don't have the correct firmwear your Rom won't work or bootloop. So its VERY important to flash the correct firmware with your Rom. If its ICS based Rom the firmweare is 3.32. That will need to be changed if you want a GB based Rom. Just make sure when flashing its the same firmweare as you have. Usually if your unsure the firmware is available to flash with the Rom. I hope this helps! Have fun!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
this is a bit of topic, but when you flash firmware , you actually flash the kernel, right? you get ftf package. then after unpacking it there is a kernel.sin(.img etc) file which you flash to your phone. I am new to this stuff so I wanna be sure how it really works
Yes that's right and for Rom Most any Rom will INCLUDE,a good base kernel so you can flash the firmweare, flash the Rom and be good. Hope this helps.

I'll probably take a beating for saying this...
Just recently I switched from TPGB (AOSP) to AR HD (Sense) with no problem. I had to format to ext4 for ARHD before I flashed, but that was easy enough.
I was on ARHD for a long time, then wanted to try out an AOSP ROM and was using TPGB (which I love!!), but then I wanted to start playing around with the Kingdom lock screen and other Sense 3.0 mods that were available, so now I'm back to ARHD and loving it as well. I will say it's not as snappy as TPGB was, but I've installed Leedroid's kernel on top of it to give me a little more OC ability and it's doing wonderfully!
Wow really!!! First things first most roms state in the install instructions what you need to do. Second you should have asked this in the dev section under ther ROM your interested in. Flashing roms is never the same from rom to rom. You must read the devs instructions.

I've never seen a chef tell you that you have to flash back to stock before you flash their ROM. That was the question. It wasn't ROM specific. He wanted to know if you could switch from an AOSP ROM to a Sense ROM without first flashing back to stock. The answer is yes, you can, and the question was asked in the proper place.

Say what you would like. The question was about installing a rom. If you read the instructions on how to install the rom you want then it will tell you how to flash it. Which would have answered his question. To be honest I also don't know a single rom that you have to flash back to stock in order to use a different rom (not saying there isn't one just don't know of any you should read the instructions to be sure your flashing properly). There I answered the question the way you would have liked to see it. Thanks for being the op's voice. Again installing any rom is not the same from rom to rom read my comment before criticizing it (I gave him the correct answer just not the way you wanted to see it). If your interested in a rom read the instruction. And your not the first person to have a problem or question for that matter search search search.
P.S. Since you cant say that flashing every rom is exactly the same then it is a rom specific question.
How to Dual Boot Multiple ROMs on Your Android Phone
Whether you want to test out a new ROM for daily use or just keep an eye on one that's being developed, you can run multiple ROMs on your rooted Android phone with BootManager, and pick which one to use when you start it up.
Having multiple ROMs to choose from is great, but flashing and re-flashing new ROMs just to try them out is annoying. If you want to try one out but don't want to fully flash it over your current ROM, BootManager will let you flash it (and up to three others) to your SD card, so you can try multiple ROMs at once. The ROMs you run from your SD card won't be quite as fast, and not every ROM out there will work, but it should give you a chance to try out most other ROMs without fully flashing them.
Right now the app is officially supported on the original Motorola Droid, Droid Incredible, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC Vision, HTC EVO 4G, HTC Inspire 4G, HTC Desire, and the HTC Desire HD. It may work on other phones, though, they just aren't officially supported yet.
Note: This tutorial contains some pretty advanced stuff, and we don't recommend it if you're unfamiliar with rooting and flashing ROMs. If you're just starting out, check out how to root your Android phone and how to flash Android ROMs before moving onto something like this.
Step One: Flash a Second ROM
Before you do anything, make a nandroid backup of your current ROM with ROM Manager or through your recovery module. If anything goes wrong, you can always restore from this backup to get things back to the way they were.
To set up BootManager, just download and install it from the Market, and start it up. You'll also want to grab a ROM of your choice and save the zip file on your SD card.
When you first start up BootManager, it'll prompt you to back up your boot.img, which you should do before installing any ROMs. Once you've done that, head to "Install ROMs". Pick the zip file from your SD card containing the ROM you want to flash, and check all three boxes: Wipe System, Wipe Data, and Wipe Cache. Let it do its thing (which will take awhile). When you're done, it will give you the option of booting into your new ROM. Hit Done; we aren't ready to boot into it just yet.
Step Two: Install Google Apps and Other ROM Add-Ons
Most ROMs don't come with Google's copyrighted apps, like Gmail, the Market, and others. This is a problem, since when you boot into your new ROM you need BootManager to function if you ever want to boot out of it, and it won't work unless you're signed into the Android Market. Luckily, there's an easy fix (note: if you know your ROM comes with Google Apps installed, you can skip this step).
Download the Google Apps zip file for the ROM you just installed and go back to BootManager. Hit Install ROMs. This time, pick Google Apps' zip file, and use the same slot that you used in step one. Leave all three "wipe" boxes unchecked this time. When it's done, booting into that slot will take you to the original ROM, but with the Google apps installed.
If you want to install a theme or other zip-based mod in the future, you can do that using this method too. Just remember: if you're flashing a new ROM, check all three "wipe" boxes, but if you're just installing an add-on to a ROM, don't check any of them.
Step Three: Switch Between ROMs
To boot into one of your other ROMs, just head into BootManager and choose "Boot Installed ROM". It'll show you a list of ROMs you have installed on your device, and after choosing one of them it will reboot into that ROM. BootManager will come installed on each of your other ROMs as well, and as long as you're signed into the Android Market on that ROM, you can boot into it from there as well and switch back to your main ROM.
That's it! You can flash up to five ROMs at a time, so you'll never be bored by one measly operating system. Hit the link to download BootManager.
BootManager is a $2.99 download for Android 2.1 and up. See the Market page below for officially supported devices.

Hi everyone, this is my first post in the sensation forums. Here is my question. A friend of mine has the sensation in stock form and wants to me to install AOKP on it. I've been reading up on how to get s-off and installing cwr. Now I have a vibrant and if on a stock or froyo rom installing a cm7 rom is recommended prior to installing any ics rom to get partitions and such correctly. Is there a rom that needs to be flashed before I can flash his sensation with the aokp rom or is it safe to flash straight from stock rom. Thanks in advanced.
Sent from tapatalk V2 B6 from ics powered vibrant
The process goes basically like this:
A) Unlock the bootloader by means of Revolutionary.io
B) Root the Stock Rom
C) Flash 4EXT recovery from the APK downloaded at 4ext.net
D) Download the 3.32 unlocked firmware from the dev thread.
E) Put firmware PG58IMG file on root of SD card and hit up the bootloader, apply firmware.
F) Remove firmware file from SD card so you can get to 4EXT recovery from the bootloader.
G) Put rom on SD card, reboot into recovery, flash rom.
Only one problem is that AOKP isn't really supported, or 100% ready to roll on this device. Virtuous Inquisition or ARHD + Shnizlon's AOSP mod is a much more stable, feature-packed approach.
Thanks sshede, that's a pretty good tut you wrote for me there. And I'll definitely search and look into the roms you recommend. And also time for me to start downloading all those files and the drivers for his phone. I probably won't mod his phone till this weekend so it will give me more time to do my reading up. Thanks once again.

Lol wut. Aokp is faster, more stable and smoother than VI. I have been using it for like 1 month without a single reboot. Only few bugs (480p camcorder) that don't affect the experience at all. Give it a try, you will think CM is a joke after using AOKP's ROM Control (which is a compilation of a LOT of tweaks/mods/etc).

Totally subjective. Some people prefer 480p because it doesn't use nearly as much space. Bluetooth isn't 100% functioning either. It may not bother you, but some people need them. And I've tried my fair share of both Sense and AOSP-based roms, nothing is more stable than Sense-based roms right now. All the drivers are straight from HTC, nothing's been patched together.

You can get s-off with the juopunutbear method. Which now does not need the htc dev-off, so htc does not know you are tinkering with your phone.
Returning your phone completely to stock can be done, but from what i've read it can be tricky as you must become S-ON again. (however, there is a unbrickable team here).
There is a way to flash with S-ON but it requires HTC DEV unlock, and for you to manually flash the boot.img, and keep the stock kernel. A noob myself i went for the whole S-OFF, lets bring it on experience.
From what I read on a local forum in my country, Ordroid gives you the sense 4 experience. And the developer regularly updates his / her rom.
Then again there is sense 4 from Baadnewz (insertcoin) and many more. A popular sense 3.6 rom is ARHD.
You can flash different kernels to increase your battery life.
As for the vanilla ICS, you can either go for CM9 (respect to Vorbeth) or the AOKP. The latter is based on the cm9 nightlies (i believe). I run such a rom. I love the vanilla looks and the added tweaks.
However, I believe recent nighlies have worse battery life. And there is an audio routing issue. For full reliability you might consisder those sense.
what's vanilla and aokp?
Please help?

I think your best bet would be installing endymion. A fast and stable custom ROM. If your comfortable with returning your phone to stock then that's fine but since the phone is already rooted it would be easier and probably safer to install a custom ROM
Endymion:

sounds like a good idea, that rom is the most stable out there with sense 3.5?
Can you please give me a link for flashing roms on this phone, i did it a long time ago on a galaxy 550 i had but i dont remember most of it... One more thing, will the phone run the 2 roms multibooting like a pc or will the flashing of this rom erase the cyanogen one?
Thanks!
No, the phone will not run 2 ROM's.
If you require a backup of your current ROM, go into recovery & make a nandroid backup of your current ROM.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You need to erase system , boot, data, cache, dalvik cache partitions before installing a new ROM (Endymion in your case).
Refer the INDEX thread for all your querries regarding Root, Installing new ROM , or Return to stock Guides !
While I haven't been on Sense in a while, I am confident Endymion is the most stable. It's the only Gingerbread ROM managing to stay on top of the development section. The developer has put in a lot of work into this ROM.
For the rest Tapur007 is pretty much correct. All your answers can be found here:

Luckily for you the hard part has already been done. All you need to do is boot into recovery, make a backup, wipe and install the ROM.
And to backup things like the apps what do you recommend? Something like titanium backup?

Titanium Backup is your bet for backup of applications and their data. Although you need to be careful restoring across different ROMs.
You could try the latest ICS ROM called Fallout (what I consider to be the Endymion replacement as its made by the same guy) this is reaching a level of performance and stability.

If you're already on endymion, give ICS a try. So fallout or virtuous saga. Or if you don't like sense try out reaper for a stable and fast gingerbread experience or AOKP for an ICS approach.
There will never be one answer to the best ROM. It's up to you to find out which one fits your standards

Sense 4.0 ROMs: lots to choose from (most still have minor bugs that needs ironing out, but Sense 4 will give you the HTC One experience...)
Again it goes to show that HTC only cares on tempting you to buy a new phone (with new software) rather than providing proper support for old phones... Great thanks for the devs who keep old phones alive that htc has left to die...
non-sense Gingerbread: Oxygen port (some issue with camera on some newer phones) or CM7 (latest CM7 RC3?)
non-sense ICS: CM9 latest alpha (a clear upgrade, only minor glitches now), AOKP port etc.
These ROMs are the way Android should have been released (like the Nexus S / GalaxyNexus) without HTC butchering it up with Sense.

Hi, i bought this phone on second hand and it came with the cianogen mod 9, and its full of bugs , and i need to send and receive mms, one thing i cant do with this rom...
How can i put the phone like it came out of the box? With the oficial htc rom, or a new one that doesnt have bugs and is able to send mms...
I appreciate the help! a link to a tutorial or something like that would be great!

Get the latest alpha (31/5?) This should solve most of your mms problems.
