I know many of us MIUI users have been having trouble with some of the bugs in the most recent MIUI release (2.1.20). I know the devs are busy working on ICS for MIUI, so a few bugs for these gingerbread releases is understandable.
If you're having problems also, then go ahead and flash back to 1.12.30. Since going back, all of my problems have been fixed!
I'm planning on sticking with this version until a more stable MIUI or MIUI ICS is released.
Hi Rod,
I have MIUI 2.1.20 and don't have so much problems with this yet.
Which big bugs/troubles you mean exactly.
yes.. even i am not having much issues with 2.1.20
oh no wonder I experience weirdness in my rom MIUI,
on the home screen can not portrait mode,
if so I'm flashing back just
Sorry for the delay guys. I think this is only an issue with the HTC Sensation as far as I can tell, but the Mod moved this thread to the general forum.
The problem was more or less a newbie mistake. I had flashed the leaked updated firmware 3.24 for my HTC Sensation, so I could flash a few different ICS roms. I found that the only MIUI rom that worked for me without any FC's or random reboots was the MIUI rom from 12-30.
I finally decided to flash the old official 1.17 firmware for the HTC Sensation. I found that after I did this the 2-1-20 MIUI rom worked flawlessly!
Again, just a basic newbie mistake.

Hi This will be my first time try and I want to do this once and leave it as it is
Before I update my htc hd2 windows mobile to HD2 NDT GINGER ROM Version 18.0
with this ROM can we change the themes within the settings of the phone so its like stock themed skin?
and one more thing "sonscheiss" in this post mentioned that they had to "disabled 128MHz" because he had problems at boot if I encounter a problem at the boot how would I disable this setting?
I will be flashing this ROM to my HTC HD2 LEO512 (their shouldn't be any problem with that right?)
I know I ask a few questions sorry about that
Thank you in advance
ok got the theme question answered by just reading a bit more
looks like you can
I just flashed this rom 2 days ago and since then I have had multiple re-boots and problems with the phone freezing and having to pull the battery out. I’m just wondering if anyone else has had these issues or there is a way to stabilize it. Before I had the NDT MIUI rom installed with no problems and I’m using the same radio (2.12.50) as I was with the MIUI rom.
I have tried to re-flashed my HD2 to the stock rom and re-flashed the radio, MGLDR and recovery still with no resolve. I really enjoy NDT’s roms and hope there is a fix for this so I don’t have to change roms.
Hi, I have recently rooted my Desire S, with revolutionary, clockwork etc, and I currently ported this rom HTC_DESIRE_S_2.3.5-2.10.401.4.zip
Everything is working just fine, but theoretically, when I decide to port a new rom, how would I know which will work, and which won't?
Actually, I'm waiting until ICS is released for desire s, so I can find it and install it...
Are there any methods to identify which rom would be compatible?
Thank you!

hey mate
your're actually talking about two different things: porting a ROM and flashing a ROM.
Porting means, you take a ROM from another device and modify it so it works on your device too.
flashing means, you take a ROM which is already optimized for your device
and install it, so you wipe the stock firmware and get a custom rom.
which of the two things is what you want to do? i think its just the flashing.
so you can take any ROM from the "development section", and if you follow the guides that you can find everywhere here im sure you will be succesfull and happy with it.
bytheway
there is no "best" ROM for your device. it all depends on what you need and want. there are alot sense 3.5 Roms, Endymion 3.4 is the one i would recommend. you can also try AOSP ROMs (android open source project, means no sense), cyanogenmod7 could be a good first choice. and you can also try ics right now, since there are at least 3 (?) ICS AOSP ROMs right now:
CM9, Virtuous Quattro RC3, IceColdSandwich
have fun!
Yes I meant "flashing" a rom
Thanks for all the information. That's the general idea I have as well, however I had this question because after I flashed another rom (official rom through htc sync - that could have been the problem) over my first flashed one , the phone was "bricked"....

i would never recommend to flash an official ROM over a custom ROM. But anyways, i think if you would have done a full wipe before flashing the official rom you wouldnt have got a "you call it brick"
a real "BRICK" is a useless phone, where there is no way to use it again.if there is still a way, its no brick.. but who cares about definitions
I recommend you to flash the ROMs only through recovery mode. AND ALWAYS DO A FULL WIPE BEFORE FLASHING A NEW ROM. very important
and dont forget to backup as always
Yes you are absolutely right. I'll have that in mind the next time I'll decide to flash a new one
Yeah the device wasn't completely useless, it hanged at boot...but I guess that was due to not following the right procedure as you previously described..
Thanks eyahl
Start flashing different roms and trying them for a day or two. First
Sens 3.0 and then sense 3.5 roms to see the difference. Only then you will know which rom is best for you.
+1 for Endymion 3.4,
+1 for Endymion
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
+1 Endymion
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
edymion, will try it
+1266592.23 for Endymion

Each ROM type suits different personal tastes, so there isn't an 'best' ROM for everyone. Trial and Error which ones suit you!
General opinions:
Stock
Pro: Straight from HTC, *newest kernel/drivers*, least likely to have compatibility issues.
Cons: HTC is slow to release updates, and sense interface is usually resource hungry.
Sense-like
Pro: usually keep the Sense interface, but custom kernals offer speed / various other improvements.Runnymead versions are kernals ported across from HTC Sensation (which offer some of the goodies like Beats Audio etc. that were not originally developed for Saga.
Cons: Sense interface is resource hungry...
CyanogenMod based
Pro: offer lots of customisations
Cons: not the most user friendly
AOSP
Pro: Roms from the android source, usually less resource hungry, so lighter and faster.
Cons: Obviously, no sense.
ICS Alpha/Beta
Not strictly a new category, but builds from the new Android 4.0 (ICS).
Currently some things (like camera) isn't fully working yet.
Note: new Desire S may suffer from camera/video lag bug with non-stock / non-sense ROMs, this is due to HTC putting in new hardware / driver into the new DS phones and the other kernels not reflecting this change yet.
Personally, I use SenseMOD Lite V1.2 build 2 as it is one of the few AOSP like builds that don't have the camera bug. Oxygen would have been best choice for me but unfortunately camera bug makes it unusable.
Hey guys. I don't want to drive over your feet, but I think the OP is already very satisfied with all those replies. specially the post above is really trying to help, but you spend much time to type what has already been written on the first page.
I appreciate your intend to help, bit I think the OP isn't gonna read this anymore..
Btw: endy!...

Hey guys,
I have flashed an ICS ROM 3 days ago, but it doesn't really work that well it was my first custom ROM I flashed in my life
But I decided to try MIUI. So I found this guy called Wajk, and he made this ROM called WIUI. My question to you guys is, can I expect the same (or even better) of a custom MIUI ROM as an official one? And even more important: Will I get the weekly updates?
Maybe some of you have had expierences with custom MIUI ROMs, should I choose the official MIUI ROM or a custom one?
Thanks guys!
P.S. Hope I'm doing this right, first time here on XDA for a long time
You'll get weekly updates if the developer updates his/hers rom every week, and you flash it again every time. But this is unlikely.
I'm myself using a custom MIUI rom, and I love it. Only problems are the built-in screenshot app doesn't work, and the Extended Settings app works neither.
Anyways, it is worth at least trying. Frankly, I think this is the best rom for my phone. All kinds of themes and lockscreens work.
Hi Guys,
I'm hoping you knowledgeable people can point me in the right direction in updating the ROM on my Sensation.
It's currently on InsertCoin 4.0.3, Android 4.0.1, Radio 10.14.9035.01_M. I've not updated the ROM for months as last time I tried, I messed something up and I was relieved just to be able to get back to the old version. Looking at the situation today, that ROM has been merged with another team's efforts and I'm a bit confused as to how to progress.
The latest Chrome seems to have played havoc on my device, hence the need to update. Has anyone else experienced these issues? Freezing, crashing, resetting the phone.
I was interested in Cyanogen Mod, but there doesn't appear to be a stable build as yet. Which ROM should I go for?
Any help is most appreciated from this clueless chap.

Hi,
It seems from your radio that you are still on GB.
In order to update your phone's firmware to be able to use the latest CM9 ROMS,look HERE
Many thanks for the advice, I'll start with that. I'm on ICS already tho?
Thanks again
Yes you will need to update your firmweare to 3.32 for Ics roms.
Once your firmweare is updated correctly you can flash a ics ROM then. Remember gb wont run with Ics firmweare and ics wont run with gingerbread firmweare. Hope this helps some.

Hi,
Your radio number is a GB one.
That is probably what is causing your Chrome issues.
Follow the thread I gave you and update your firmware fully(which includes the radio)
Remember,when the firmware has finished,it will say update complete.
Thanks Guys, will have a look.
Many thanks malybru & realsis, your help is much appreciated.
Hi, Had a HTC One X for a while now but recently got stolen so now i am back on my Desire S. I haven't been modding or flashing this phone in ages and haven't really followed all the threads.
Is there any one that can tell me what ROM works best for daily use at the moment. It is currently running on Fallout but i saw that hasn't been updated in a long time soo i think it is time to upgrade?
Any suggestions?
And yes i am a lazy person sorry
When will people learn?!
We don't do "best rom" threads on xda.
you must try SVHD 2.1.0 rom its stable and smooth , or ICS DS v8.0 final
The best ROM is the one you like the most.
I've gone from GB to HTC ICS to cm10. I've tried some custom ICS Roms but like the look, feel and functionality of Jellybean.
Some great work is being done on cm10.2 right now and hopefully soon cm11 KitKat. Fingers crossed.
The one I keep going back to is blindndumbs cm10.1 but development may have stopped.
Do a nandroid and flash away. See what works best for you. You won't know unless you try.
I'm sorry for my bad english, I'm italian.
You may look there:
