[ICS] Best (most stable) ICS Rom on the web? - HTC Sensation

Hey guys! Just wondering what experiences you are having with the stock roms and sense based roms? Best features? Most stable? Lag? Bugs? Let me know your opinions!
Keep within the terms of use, and be respectful!
All respect and props given to devs! Thanks a ton and merry Christmas!
Personally, I'm looking for a Rom that will work with titanium backup, any suggestions?

You should probably wait for the ROM over at MoDaCo to update, the next update has everything working other than BT and Camera with Full hardware acceleration.
Merry Christmas to you too!

I thought everything was already working in 7.7 aside from BT, camera, and HWA?

Yeah Matt you are 100% correct. Everything is working extremely well, the ICS Rom over @ Modaco, created by a Guy named TripNIce is absolutely great. Its definetly possible to use it as a daily rom, if u can live with out the Camera, Hardware Acceleration, and Bluetooth. I would use it if the Camera @ least worked, I don't use it regularly but with the holidays here I already know I'm going to need to snap a quick pic or two. Lol

I've flashed the InsertCoin and ARHD and then removed the sense parts with the no-sense script. InsertCoin ICS is pretty nice but so are most of them I figure since they're all coming from the same place. I'd like a nice CM9 Xmas present myself. Perhaps a Santa-delivered nightly?
There's a cool thread on the developer forum on fixes and enhancements which is really getting good now. Lots of great fixes for things, ways to get AOSP things working.
The current round of ICS and Sense ROMS are a lot of fun to play with. Backups are nice too

webstar1's Ultimite ICS is the most stable no-sense I've tried. It is literally fully fledged AOSP. Most sense ICS rooms are laggy :s I would recommend this one for sure!

Been running the rom from MoDaCo for about 3 weeks. Usable as daily driver for me as I don't use bluetooth and camera ( I have a 5D for that ).
Waiting for new beta update scheduled for tonight.

Virtuous Inquisition v1.2.0 :: Senseless ICS (4.0.1)
I am a noob using HTC Sensation. Installed my first non-stock ROM today..
Am currently running Virtuous Inquisition v1.2.0 :: Senseless ICS (4.0.1) and here is summary of my feedback for this version.
Used ROM Manager to install from SD Card. No hassles and was over in less than 10 minutes.
Really Smooth.
Known lockscreen issue with incoming calls.
Known lockscreen issue with unlock to Camera not working.
Issue with WhatsApp being unstable. Not sure if it is a WhatsApp issue.
By default, mobile data is switched off. (Need to switch ON in Settings/Usage Monitor)
Notification messages blur while going away.
WiFi works great.
I agree with others. HTC contacts and dialer are much better than ICS stock versions. Specifically for contact linking and T9 dialing.
Merry Christmas everyone..
p.s. I just watched the noob XDA Developer video. Awesome.

I've been using ARHD 5.02 for 3 or 4 days now. I ran the no-sense script and love it.
The camera works, not sure about BT since I never use it.
The only bugs that I've noticed are very minor, i.e. FML widget not able to cycle through FML posts. I have to actually open FML to get my daily fix.
Also, Titanium backup isn't playing nice with it, Mike knows about the problem though.
This rom will definitely be my daily driver until I can try out CM9.

[Q] Which is the best ICS ROM for HTC Sensation 4G?

I want to upgrade to ICS 4.0 so was wondering which is the best ICS 4.0 rom in terms of least number of bugs and the one which is most stable as I dont want keep changing/upgrading ROMS.
Please do help me with your user comments/feedbacks/reviews
I have stuck with ARHD 6 at the moment.
Their first ICS release was buggy and gaming was a bit of a no go, so i went over to InsertCoin for a while until the 4.0.3 came from ARHD.
Been using that since yesterday with 1.5cpu 300gpu kernel and so far it seems very stable, still no dungeon hunter though

Kernel issue, you'll have to wait till HTC releases the source/another version leaks.
I'm on the 4.0.3 Virtuous. 2.0.1 is fast and has slick hardware accel in the UI. 99% AOSP with Sense cam and Sense notification tray. Love it.

I'm loving Virtuous Inquisition (4.0.1). I got to mess with my uncle's Galaxy Nexus and really liked the stock ICS feel. If u like sense tho, ARHD never fails to impress.

I use RCMix ICE v2.1 with stock kernel. It's fast and dualcore works there! Perfect!
+1 virtuous.
- no problems so far..
- even Blutooth Stereo A2dp was working
- battery life 1-2 days
- fast .. smooth.
Virtuous Inquisition all day, I hate sense and this is a tidy ICS Rom.

Nothing BEST you can find. The only available is FIT with your need. Tell us what you like, what you want, what you need. User here probably can assist to give you some opinion. I'm on ARHD 6.0.2 but discharging all 3d widget, and all widget. I do like plain AOSP, but I feel comfortable with htc mail, contact and keyboard. when take "combined" rom aosp-sense ... some featur not work properly. i.e incoming call not show Icon on combining aosp+sense. HTC camera driver is better than aosp, thus I made ARHD 6.0.2 as plain as possible only 145 app left. changed roboto font to bitstreamVerasan ... roboto is too small for me.
It's main reason we join xda ... to learn and having fit ROM ... stock always give you what you dont need and dont use

Well, I enjoy flashing all of them while they are in the stages of development. I like to think of each Rom like that of a child. They all start out seeking the same goal, but instinctively over time each one starts to develop a different personality. Some, and no fault of their own, are a little slow while some are pushed to fast and suffer a lack of control. Some can be predictably stable but not overly exciting. While the other side wonder about with a mind of their own seeking direction. So, to best answer your question, have some fun and challenge yourself by giving them all a chance. Isn't that why you are here on XDA? Lastly, and without a bit of irony, I have paused curiously checking out this kid that was quirky at first, but now is starting to feel comfortable and trustworthy. Ive noticed over the days a quick pace in mind which ends at the finish without any lag or do overs yet knows their is much to be learned. Finally, standing strong, front and center, I refer to you "Virtuous Inquisition 2.0.1"
Wld u consider these roms for daily use? A lot of folks end up gng back to GB...

There's no going back for me or many other members using ICS!
Well, I did like Virtuous Inquisition 1.4.2 very much, but have found many bugs in 2.0.1 that took my pleasure away (FCs here and there, can't choose Ringtones, etc.). I am using 1.4.2 as my daily driver and think it's pretty far away from an early alpha stage. But there are bugs... e.g. can't use the QuickLinks more than once in Dolphin Browser Mini, Winamp seems to be buggy etc.
Came from CM7 Alpha, so I'm used to use an alpha for my sensation Hate Sense, so AOSP or nearly AOSP fits me most.
Just my 2 Cents
If you didn't upgrade to ICS yet don't do it!
Why?
Because:
-Scrolling is slow
-Some games are not working
-Many apps FC
-Battery is horrible if using wifi
-SD messing up from time to time
-ZERO mods because htc's systemui is not compatible with apktool
So better stay with GB or wait for CM9
Have to admit, scrolling is a turn-off... Also had many FCs. Otherwise, I like the speed improvement. Don't have much battery drain.
@vegetaleb: Which ICS Rom(s) did you try?
Read somewhere, that InsertCoins ICS might be very good...
.edit: Virtuous Inquisition 2.0.1 is now working a lot better. Probably installed some 1.4.2 Apps from HTC via Titanium Backup which caused htc.com FCs.
I am using ARHD 6.0.2(ICS 4.0.3) And is amazingly smooth ,fast, very good battery life, waiting for CM ICS stable now .

Advertise CoreDroid elsewhere, he's asking specifically about CM7. Anyhow, I used to run it but the AOSP camera is a joke. There's always Senseless roms that keep the camera, but they don't feel as light weight as CM7 did. Right now, I'm waiting for CM9 before I go back to Cyanogenmod.
Id like to keep this a cm thread but thanks for letting us know bossman.

Been swapping ROMs every few days lately, but at the moment I'm on HyperSensation which is based on CM7.
CM7 is great, apart from the lack of 1080p support and sub-par camera app (compared to Sense), along with the buggy sensor usage (i.e., battery drain after an app has used the compass). Apparently the 3D Gallery was causing some issues with battery drain too.
The camera works great for me quality wise and we all know that the video recorder just crashes the phone but who cares? Unless u film stuff on the reg.

For me, a 95% working AOSP ROM is better than a 100% working Sense ROM.
So I'm running CM7 as a daily. The battery life is good (At least a full day. 2 if I don't get a lot of calls on day 1)
It's smooth and speedy.
There are a few quirks though. I can't get wifi calling to work for some reason (though it apparently works for others in CM7) and I have 1 app that won't play properly.
Other than that....
Which app wont play?
Sent from my Sensation on CM7 Alpha#10
Currently running HyperSensation, and it's absolutely perfect.. I love how minimalistic it is, I actually uninstalled more apps that I don't use. Videorecording Isn't that important to me, and and I don't think the aosp camera is THAT bad lol. I also underclocked to 1ghz, because it doesn't need to be higher Imo. I'm 100% happy with this until a mode stable ICS rom is available.

Full Screen Caller ID.
The app loads and I can adjust all the settings, but it won't overlay the full screen caller picture. Doesn't work in SelfKang's version or Hyper Sensation.
Daily driver is RevertedASOP 1.2 (CM7 based) with Faux's latest kernel. Everything works well for me, and underclocked to around 1ghz it is way faster and smoother than my test ICS rom. More than a full day of battery life too.

Only thing kept me from using is the crappy Launcher Pro performance.
I'm only commenting because you asked. I love CM, but not any of the Sensation builds. I've tried several kernels to no avail. 4-5 times a day I'm removing my battery because of freezing. I've done clean installs and not even installed programs to see if my installed apps were the problems and I still had reboots. I'll wait for a stable version of CM9. My glacier(mytouch 4g) has 7.2 unofficial and it never reboots or freezes. I'm waiting for that kind of stability. Don't get me wrong though I absolutely love CM! Go devs!
I have not liked the sensation build of cyanogen mod either. Lost of stuff that made it apparent to me that this was definitely not a priority to the cyanogen mod team. I am however anxiously waiting for the cm9 for the sensation

I feel ya however i havnt had a single reboot or freeze in the past month. Launcher pro performs just as good on cm7 sensation than on my previous devices. The only bug i have found is the video cam but that is expected. Thanks for your input. Cant wait for cm9 for the sensation.

I would use MIUI but the latest build has a wifi bug where it auto turns wifi on and eats the battery.

Well I don't mean to be a downer again but I have noticed sense about the 15 of last month we Sensation owners haven't heard anything new towards the advancement of CM9 for our device. Maybe it might be time for me to get a Nexus. Has anyone else here heard of anything at all about CM9 and Sensation?
If u mean nexus s i just came from one. Awesome phones but they get boring really fast. Il sum it up for you. Nexus s runs cm7 perfect. It runs miui buttery smooth. The cm9 alpha roms suck. The ics official rom for the nexus is garbage. More power to ya for going with a nexus it just got boring for me fast. Plus the phone feels like a plastic toy compared to our sensations. Im sure good stuff will cone to the sensation.

[Q] The best ROM ?

Hi guys. I want to know which is the best ROM for daily use ? My gf has a Desire S and the light sensor doesn't work properly during a call so it's very easy to accidentally touch the 'mute' button (or any button).
Anyway, as I am not a Desire S owner I don't really know which ROM is the most stable and battery friendly.
Thanks.
LE: Sorry for the wrong section, I didn't see the 'Q and A' section on the main page so I thought it doesn't exist at all
Hi mate,
Obviously it's a bit subjective, but I really don't think you can beat lowveld's Endymion 3.3 ROM. It's still htc sense so your girlfriend won't have to get used to a new UI, only a more updated one! I've tried everything else and I'm always back to it!
It's very stable, I've never once had any problems. Battery life is the best of any ROMs I've tried too, I get nearly 2 days of moderate/heavy usage.
But the ROM requires any partition layout (on my Desire I have 1GB ext4 on my SD card for apps) ?
I think the best ROM for Saga is Endymion.
It is very stable and best thing is that the support thread is amazing.
Not jus the developer, but also the users are so knowledgeable and helpful. It's almost like a professional support center team!!
I like Endymion too...
But i also like CM7, becuause it is much faster!
Take oxygen Rom rock solid
Best Sense-Roms (for me): Endymion and Coredroid
My choice atm Reaper 1.2 (CM7.2 based) with an older version of zeam-launcher (for scrollable widgets). Fastest/Smoothest Rom i every used, no problems noticed and the battery last longer than on other Roms.
Depends on what your gf wants. If she just wants a rom with everything straight out of the box, it's better to pick a Sense-based rom. If she likes customizing, pick CM. And if she want an iOS feel for her Desire S, pick Miui.
The problem with the light sensor doesn't sound good. You should download an app to check the values of the light sensor. You might need to send the Desire S for repair. Better wait with flashing a new rom.
For me best room is ICS.
With sense 3.5 and android 2.3.5 (ics Virtuous Quattro RC1 is almost but not enough ready for me), i prefer RunnyDrOiD By PVTEAM
Thanks guys. My gf is not a ROM freak so she doesn't want to flash new updates for her ROM every day... so I'll stick to Sense 3.5. ATM I'm downloading Endymion V3.3 ROM and hopefully it'll work like a charm . I'll post here after I flash it...
CM 7 Room
I wanna try the CM 7 Room.. wich is the best? with no bugs or problems
Check out lowveld's "Reaper" ROM, it's based on CyanogenMod but with a number of tweaks.
I switched to it yesterday out of boredom, and I'm amazed by it, it's superfast, I've had zero FC's, and best of all it has lowveld's seal of quality so you know the support is top notch!
Check it out in the development thread.
Cm7 is super fast and has a great battery life but u won't have all the sense features, so It's up to u. I'm running on endymion 3.3 and i like it very much. Think I'm gonna wait for a stable ics Rom before shifting.
Cheers

I use CM7 because it fast and clean, I don't like HTC sense at all. And with ICS roms getting more stable I will probably switch to one of those soon.
I think CyanogenMod is the best for performance )

I like Endymion because of HTC Sense and its functionality.
But I love CM7 due to its legendary performance.
Its up to your GF. But you should note, the smaller font size on Endymion does take quite a while to get used to!

Best Sensation Rom

Hi guys I thought I'd share my rom experience and ask for general opinions on HTC sensation roms.
I have tried the following:
DarkForest sense 3.6 - Solid rom but not as smooth ARHD.
ARHD 6.8.0 - My current rom - I experience the best gaming performance on this. As far as I can see this is a better and more reliable version of stock. It also has the unique sense stuff - (slow motion camera, useful save SD space interface and the best battery life ect)
JBMIUIv4.1 - This is a very interesting rom that felt really fast and very iOS like. However it lacks an app draw which makes restoring apps from titanium backup a problem.
CM10 - Best rom with Jelly Bean. Awesome rom with a fast buttery interface. However the Trebuchet launcher begins to lag after a while, though swapping to Apex did improve this. Though it was faster than ARHD, games lagged more for some reason - perhaps it is not fully optimised for the sensation.
Ordroid - This was my first sense 4 rom. Also it is the most smooth sense rom I have ever tried. I loved this but unfortunately it is no longer supported so I am forced to move on.
Finally we have ViperS 1.3.5 This is certainly the most advanced of all the roms I have tried and brings a full sense 4 experience to the sensation. However before the sense 4.1 update it was almost unusable with more than 50 or so apps installed. The home screen lagged a lot. Now with the sense 4.1 update this has certainly improved and it is less laggy. I am unable to understand how it is still less responsive than Ordroid Even though Ordroid is supposedly from a less responsive version of sense. Maybe when the jelly bean update is released this will finally change.
So I now ask you guys: Which Sensation rom is your favorite and why? Also does anyone know why ARHD provides better gaming performance than any other rom?
i started from arhd 6.7.2, as it was the easiest custom rom to flash, closest to stock.
then i moved to viperS, 1.0.1 to 1.3.5. sense 4.1 definitely feels smoother, and i had no issue with 1.3.5.
after s-off, I tried paranoid android, it was cool but still experimental at that time, so I settled with hypernonsense and happy with it.
soon after, cyanogenmod 10 fixed the front camera bug, so I tried it (v4.1.2). i love the buttery smooth animations, replaced trebuchet with nova launcher. would have keep on using it as it was stable. alas the mms function is broken in my case.
so i finally return to using hypernonsense 3.5, and so far it has been great! the only thing i miss is theme customization (cyanogenmod theme spoiled me a bit), but the black & white looks good anyway.
i'm not a gamer, so i cant compare gaming performance between those roms. my highest antutu benchmark score is 8060, using vipers 1.3.5 and faux kernel with vsync disabled. on cm10, highest antutu score is around 5500.

Nova Launcher is slightly faster IMO, used both alot.
Even I've switched between roms.. but presently due to some constraints the flashoholic thingy is away.
I'm presently on viper s 1.3.5
Jb miui s89: wonderfully smooth... Butter
(And titanium backup even works without app drawer, as the op says it doesn't)
But Jb has some bugs surely...
Elegance:
1. Pegasus seemed cool with blue kinda stock but after installation the blue color didn't seem so awesome.
N I experienced random restarts after titanium backup restores(I don't know which app particularly created the issue)
2. Blitz: now that would be the best stock 3.6 sense rom I've tried.
I simply loved the camera app in it.
Though it looks almost similar to stock but the color contrasts, vibrancy in color, the dof, the macro photography capturing capability... Everything was superb.
I used it for quite a long time.
(The reason I'm not using it now... I dropped my phone from a height of 15 frets. And the screen started behaving erratically. Response faded, things I didn't click started getting activated.
Firstly I thought it's surely a hardware issue since I dropped the phone, but just random thought, I decided to restore the nandroid of viper s, and it worked like a charm.
I know it seems awkward to say hardware/screen issues vanishing by replacing rom, but that's what happened)
Hyper nonsense:a good smooth rom with minimalistic app but good library supports.
I've even tried other roms, but just mentioned a few.
Now I'm quite bored of the cm 9/10 look(trebuchet, apex n nova)
And even to an extent sense. Hoping some visual change in android soon.

Yeah, also Bruce's rom, got me laughing here, too, re: "hardly" typo, should be "hard" or "heartily".
@OP: you could improve your benches when using a different governor, e.g. "lagfree" instead of "badass" etc.
InsertCoin Evolution is a good rom too

Try this one >>>> Smartdroid Berserk 2.3
highly recommended :good:
I tried a few..
ARHD First ROM i flashed. WAS Great after 3.33 was released, things started to act up weird.. I got random reboots, the whole ROM was also laggy in the end. I gave up on it. Was a suberb ROM pre 3.33 release and super stable. This Rom also gave me best batterylife.
CM9 (stable) gave me horrid batterylife. I loved CyanogenRom´s back in the Nexus One / Gingerbread days but since then i have found them not that good..Until i got..
CM10 by Bruce2728.. which i am currently running. Gives me good batterylife, however some wakelocks is still there, but not that big a threat to my battery. Rom is Beta but works great to me on most parts.
Ordroid Best ROM i tried after ARHD. Stable, good batterylife. Good allrounder. How it is now, i dunno. I used it while it was still developed.
JBMIUIv4.1 Nice looking, but really not my thing. i prefer my ROM simple, hasslefree and with minimal 3rd party features. Something this has plenty off.
Tried Virtous as well long ago, but don´t remember how it was.
To me, best Rom right now is Bruce´s CM10.
CM 10
Bruce's CM10 ROM is the best sensation ROM for me. It utilises Jellybean, is so smooth and is near perfect in my opinion. Any small issues are being dealt with, with regular updates.
Also another great thing is that you no longer have to do a full wipe for the updates which is such a great bonus.
CM10
My first ROM was ARHD, then I try whit ViperS 1.3.5, then I past to Dark Forest... Actualy I'm using CM10 is pretty good. =)
My first rom is elegance pegasus with apex pro and I like it a lot better that stock. i will try Bruces's CM10 rom next after reading these helpful posts.
I also use Bruce's CM10 ROM. Minor bugs, nothing which renders the phone unusable. It might enter the nightly phase soon.

Bought this phone second hand, was already installed with Elegancia rom. Nice Rom, but I just like CM!

Hi, I'm new here on the Sensation users, got mine l less then a week ago, still need to s-off but unlocked bootloader and superuser are done. Smart flash allowed me to try some roms thanks for that, so here is me brief experience:
- team venom: very complete and one of the most updated I think, but the load of default configuration almost makes sensation crawl a bit sometimes. Not bad battery life but it's a unforgivefull rom, so it's justified. The most complete sense rom.
- miui jb : I like miui, used it before for a long time on my desire, the JB release is great. Fast, beautiful, highly customizable, no issues. If you're into something different it's a great alternative. You can add a app drawer if you miss it or just organize things with folders .
- JB AOKP: Using it now. Fast, clean, the AOKP customization makes it really something unique experience. Good battery life, good performance. I'm still on a flashing spree though, my opinion can change without notifications lol.

[Q] (Q) Best sense 4.0 or ics sense 3.0 rom to use??

Just wondering which rom may be the most stable when it comesto ics and sense
As far as sense goes I think rooted stock or mik ROM is the only ones for that as for jb there is lots of ROMs out there I'm currently using official CyanogenMod preview 7 and I love it. Fast smooth stable but I would recommend you just try them all

sun_dream ported several ROMs, an ICS with Sense4 and Sense4.1a, as well as an ICS with Sense3.6. I never could get the Sense4 ROMs to work reliably on my phone, especially the headset audio (it is extremely picky about which earplugs it will accept). His ICS 4.0.3 ROM with Sense3.6, however, worked reasonably well for me, has great audio. There are two versions of it, one is based on Sensation 3.3.2, other is 3.3.3. I found the 3.3.2 to be the more stable and fluid with really good battery life. My only issue with it was sometimes data would drop off unexpectedly. It would come back usually on its own, but sometimes you'd have to toggle airplane mode to get it back. An annoyance. Also, there was a Gallery issue with it FC'ing. But, I solved that by ripping Gallery out of another Sense3.6 ROM and pushing it to my phone. You can read about that in the ROM's thread in the Dev forum.
But really, for overall stability and a ROM where everything works like it is supposed to work without having to jiggle and toggle and stand on your head or sacrifice chickens, Miktouch is the one I use every day. I do like the features of ICS and especially those of the new JB ROMs. But, this is my only phone and must work 100% 100% of the time.

Yes I must agree I use mik sense 3.0 cause its most reloable as of right now and everything works. Baytery lofe is not bad for sense also. Dont get me wrong I love cm roms bit need more stability also I hope cm based roms fix the video out.
EDIT: can someone post me links to some customizations for mik 3.0 would be greatly appreciated.

No one can answer this question correctly except you. Try the various ROMs available to you and decide which one is best for you.
