Ice Cream Sandwich - Insertcoin VS Android Revolution HD

The title says it all. for those of you that Have Ice Cream Sandwich on your Sensation , and you have tried both roms, which one is better?

I havn't tried ICS insertcoin since I updated to hboot to 1.20 and the latest radio.
I do think that makes a big difference to performance though, and at the moment I'm very happy with ARHD 5.02

Virtuous FTW!

ARHD - IMHO Stable and support.

i think it's RCMix Ice, 24 hour, and stable.

lots of different opinions here! I myself have Android Revolution HD but havnt tried any others.

I have InsertCoin, tried also ARHD
Chosed InsertCoin because.. I don't know

Aren't they all based on the same leaked HTC rom with a few minor personal changes?

Aren't all of these ROMs a tuned variant of the HTC Sensation Sense leak?
Aside from obvious kernel / speed mods, each should perform similarly, so when you ask which is better, are you asking what is special or better in each variant?
If I may ask, I'd like to know what percentage of each ROM is 'just right' and what percentage 'needs work' - to assist answering the question.
Is that a helpful way to ask? Which is more of a reliable 'daily driver' that you enjoy and can rely on?

I tried insertcoin, ARHD, Ultimate, RCMix and Elegancia ICS ROM. All felt the same. May be because of base leaked HTC ROM and Sense (look wise). All had problem with Exchange ActiveSync policies and Security settings FC. I am back to insertcoin GB based ROM.

Virtuous Inquisition.

How does it compare to his AOSP version? I really like the speed of the AOSP but it can't be a daily driver without working mail and mms.

it has a few sense ics problems, the most closest aosp rom available with speed and everything working

I have tried both, and BOTH have the same problems when used in my phone...
"Random reboot", about every 20 mins...
So i am off now to try yet an other rom...
ICS on my Desire HD works rock solid (but without cam), so i am a little suppriced so discover that these more complete sensation roms have those kind of issues...
Right now the phone is on insert coin, and aperrently in a bootloop... :-S
- it have worked for 15 mins up until that point...

TripNice tr001b ASOP:
The ROM is perfect except:
1. GMAIL/FB tiles bug
2. scrolling to slow
3. camera
4. battery percentage missing

none
2 cents & 10 char

ive tried a few i like onceICS the most it has the best battery life but if your looking for something would sense i recommend InsertCoin

aren't they pretty much the same? ICS so new, I dont think ive seen the descriptions under the different roms vary much. What we need is kernel source dam HTC cawcks
I think id rather see an interest poll cause these things tend to cause too much conflict
kernel dev fights, aosp dev fights, too much drama.

That's curious. I've been using ARHD 5.0.2 on a daily basis with no problems whatsoever. I flashed the firmware update too.

[Q] Are the custom ICS roms completely stable now?

I just got my Asurion replacement Senny(my previous Senny was stolen on Friday 3/16). I now need to S-Off, SuperCID, root, change recovery, etc all over again. I was thinking about keeping it stock since I thought the T-Mobile ICS update was imminent. If it's not, I might as well install ARHD, InsertCoin, or Virtuous. In lieu of trying to read through the 200+ pages of posts in the developer's sections, can someone quickly outline how far the developers have come with the ICS roms. I installed ICS (InsertCoin) a few months ago, but there were too many bugs. With official ICS Ruu's being released, are the custom ICS Roms stable enough for the Tmobile branded Senny 4G?
Are we at Daily Driver stage?!
P.S.
It seems like the only issue with ICS right now is TMob's Wifi Calling, which I never use.

Now the kernel source has been released we're pretty much there in terms of stability. TMOUS OTA will round things up nicely

every ICS custom ROM ive flashed has been stable. Every ICS ROM thread ive read said it was stable.
Id say they are stable lol

Most ROMs are stable even AOSP but only ROMs based on 3.6 have everything working.

Been running VI4.0 for the past 2 weeks not a single problem excellent ROM for a daily if u ask me.

They have been stable for months. Try a few and enjoy

Iv been around since the sensation was released and it has been a long haul to get some stability and performance from these phones, they had the power just didn't have the right pair with software code. The transfer from GB to ICS showed a noticeable increase in performance even from the untouched 3.6 OTA ROM but the performance is not perfect, it is good and a lot better than GB but not perfect (perfectionist here). AOSP ROMS offer higher performance in regards to UI experience but lack in stability and variety, i have managed to find the cm9 rom recently the most stable and fastest rom in UI performance and stability.
This is my list of great rom's for the different ones that there are.
ARHD 6.5.2 (STABLE AND MOFO FAST) (SENSE 3.6)
OPENSENSATION CM9 (STABLE AND FASTEST) (AOSP)
MIUI (STABLE BUT NOT FAST) (SENSELESS NOT AOSP)
MIUI TRIPNRAVER (FAST BUT NOT STABLE) (AOSP)
Yet to find a sense 4.0 stable rom yet.
I have tried many others but these stand out on top of each of the different roms there are.
JUST MY OPINION.

Biggest issues with ICS ROMs for us TMobilie US users are the included TMo apps (My Account/Account manager) and WiFi Calling.
Account manger doesn't work, flat out.
Wi Fi calling will work, but it'll drop calls sometimes a minute or two in.
The latest AHRD with the change that keeps the launcher in memory is really smoking.
Great battery life, super stable and smoking fast...
Just nandroid and try a few....

Thanks for all of the fast responses. There is a reason that I spend so much time on XDA. Awesome Community!!

Rockfoo.
I know there were posts with official ICS ROMs, you can flash one.
As T-mo user I'm a bit hesitant to flush it now, waiting for official OTA.
Of course T-mo is loading ROM with their crap right now and who knows when it will be released. I'll wait for coupe of weeks and if nothing comes out, I will flash the one I saw in EddyOS' post somewhere. It's an original HTC ROM minus T-mo bloatware.
JMO.

I took the dive and S-off'd, rooted, SuperCID'd, installed 4ext, nandroid backup'd, upgraded the firmware, and installed ARHD. It's fast, smooth and so far everything works. Only issue is that I HATE SENSE 3.6. I came from the LG G2X with all of it's AOSP goodness. Problem was the actual hardware was a travesty! My brother-in-law and my girlfriend had HTC phones and I used to think their phones were the ****! And Sense was great until I started downloading and using other developers launchers, messaging apps, etc.
Somehow, Sense 3.0 never really bothered me, but 3.6 completely hides all of ICS's goodness in my opinion. As most of the innovation that HTC developed in Sense is has been incorporated into ICS, Sense 3.6 is largely irrelevant. Sense 3.6 is just in the way!
Since most of the heavy lifting is done, I think that I can now just flash a different ICS rom...right?
I'd like to try ICS as it was intended.

Yes they are cause we have final ota base and also the kernel source... They're perfect

I've been running custom ICS roms for a long time, and i will say that they are now completely stable, no FC's or stuff that does not work

Stock Ice Cream Sandwich with Sense 4.0 ROM

So as far as I can tell sense 4.0 will not becoming to the Sensation via HTC and from reading these boards I notice that some of the Developers out there have begun porting sense 4.0 into ROM's which can be used on the Sensation
My question is which ROM is the most stable and bug free and closest to the stock HTC One which has sense 4.0 and can be used on the Sensation?
Thank you for any help and advice given

4.0

There is no right answer to this, no two Sensations are exactly the same and in terms of ROM'S, radio's, kernal's and so on opinions WILL vary. The ports are getting better but that tends to happen with time. Best advise we can give you is try them for yourself and decide. Its your phone, use whats best for you. Getting off my soapbox now, I thought Virtuous was pretty good but when back to ARHD until ports are better.

ARHD isn't a Sense 4.0 ROM, it's Sense 3.6, and Virtuous Inquisition isn't Sense 4.0, it's a de-sensed ROM from Sense 3.6 but still contains Sense libs and camera.

The most stable out of the Sense 4.0 ROMs is Ordroid, others simply haven't caught up to it yet. Virtuous has started one but it will be a wait before it catches up to Ordroid - Ordroid was established before most of the other Sense 4.0 ROMs so that will probably be the most stable and bug free, not to mention closest to the One Series. Elegancia 4.0 has a differently themed status bar, so it isn't stock.

OrDroid is the best Sense 4 ROM. It gets updated everyday, literally, everyday. It does have a few bugs but as far as random reboots and crashes, none of those. It's very stable I use it as my daily driver.

Is it stable enough to use it every Day, also for working? Is the performance Like on Sense 3.6? I'm asking cause I was that silly to download the update to ics -> I'm s-on. need to wait for juopunutbear tool to test it myself. :banghead:

VI is not an AOSP ROM. It is a de-sensed ROM, which looks like AOSP. However, it is based on Sense 3.6 and contains many of the libs still there. A true AOSP ROM is compiled from scratch or based on the CM9/AOKP source.
Otherwise, Ordroid is much more established than S4V.

As mentoined above OrDroid is an excellent Sense-4 rom with a helpful dev-team. There is also InsertCoin which is as stsble and fast as OrDroid. Both roms auto loads your apps from Play Store after flashing.Very convenient for a flashaholic like myself.

I already knew about the other Virtuous ROM, however, S4V is much less established, and when you mentioned ARHD, you could be easily talking about VI too. It isn't my fault you chose not to mention the actual name of the ROM.

How is the battery life on OrDroid and InsertCoin? Compared to Sense 3.6 Roms? I really want to flash Sense 4 but I need battery life that is at least on par with most Sense 3.6 roms, I need to make it through a day. Thanks

I've just flashed my phone with 2 sense 4 roms. first with Blue Sense. looks fine but it tweaked a lot and and with the DX, sometimes it's just confusing.
With OrDroid, everything seems to be work fine even some says they unable to pair with other device, but I managed to get my phone paired with my laptop..
I wanted to go on and try other sense 4 roms but seems to me, I will stick with OrDroid for a while until there is complete bug free rom released.

Don't forget the following non-functioning items:
- wifi hot spot
- HTC Watch (can not watch rented movies)
- camera bugs (face detection, HDR)
It is a great ROM, but still has a ways to go to get out of beta. I love it but cannot use it as a daily ROM because of the bugs. Of course all the Sense 4 ROMs have these bugs.

I have Sensation, and I tried InsertCoin.
It seems that InserCoin is the most recommender rom with "stable" sense 4.
Well it is hardly stable, had many bugs.
I am using Revolution ICS by Mike1986, it has sense 3.6, I think you should try it until Mike1986 releases a stable sense 4 version, because when Mike1986 says the rom is stable, IT REALLY IS.
Goodluck, and if you find a really stable sense 4 rom, please share

If your aim is stability then avoid Sense 4. The most stable roms are going to be the ones based on the 3.6 ICS update made for our phones. I'm not saying Sense 4 roms aren't stable, but a rom like ARHD ICS is certainly more so.

If you need the Bluetooth Hands Free option on your phone then you will not want Sense 4. Unfortunately that is one option that all the Devs have yet to fix.
Personally I cannot wait for them to do it, Sense 4 is great, but the Hands free is a necessity for me, so I'm back on 3.6.

I try a lot of roms with Sense 4, but stable, really stable only CoinDroid by Shnlon n Baad

I'd agree with this. I'm running CoinDroid and I like it, but I have frequent lockups. This seems to be related to wifi (with wifi off it runs all day, but if wifi is on and I move between access points I end up doing a battery pull or use adb to reboot). Bluetooth, FM radio, and internet pass-through don't fully work. If you don't rely on those capabilities it's "stable", but otherwise stick with 3.6.

My ROM experience

People are always posting up new threads asking for advice on this ROM vs. that ROM. Well, I haven't tried them all, but I've tried quite a few of the more popular ones recently. I'm not going to pick these ROMS apart. If you want more info about what I liked or didn't like about a particular ROM I've tried, go ahead and ask.
I got my Sensation back in January. I used the stock Gingerbread for a couple of months. Then got frustrated when the T-Mobile ICS update got delayed and have been on a flashing frenzy ever since.
I've been trying a lot of ROMs lately. I started with ARHD, then went to Elegancia, then Hypernonsense, then back to Elegancia, then Sense 4 Elegancia, then back to 3.6, then Virtuous Inquisition, then Opensensation (CM9), and back to Elegancia again. I've also tried Sebastion, faux, and bricked kernels - I prefer bricked best.
I honestly don't a see a performance difference between Sense, stripped Sense, or AOSP ROMs. I have System Tuner Pro and always monitor memory usage. I thought that the stripped and AOSP ROMs would have gobs of free memory available, but they just don't. They're no better or worse. I also was compelled to try those ROMs to improve battery life. Again, the experience didn't match the hype.
It all comes down to personal preference. Each ROM has its own glitches. But from my experience, full Sense 3.6 ROMs are the most functional and most stable. I loved the Sense 4.0 ROM I tried, except that Sense crashed on me like 3 times a day having to pull the battery each time. For me, nothing beats the Sense widgets. I live in the email and calendar widgets for work and the music widget in the car. No other widgets come close.
I think I'm gonna quit screwing around with it for a while. I am very happy with the Elegancia Sense 3.6 ROM / Bricked kernal combo. It's pretty much already modded/themed the I way I would do it. I can just flash it and go. I will try the Sense 4.0 version again when it's more mature. I loved it, I just can't have my phone crashing on me constantly.
I still want to try MIUI and will probably try CM9 again when it's official. I really like some of the home screen setups people have been able to pull off with their AOSP ROMs. But I think the widgets will always pull me back to a full Sense ROM. The only widgets that can compete, you have to pay for - and they're still not as good. Also, the AOSP camera blows compared to the Sense camera. In the end, it's all about what's functional for you.
In conclusion, try a few, try a bunch... don't get lost in the hunt for better battery life and more performance, because - 1) those 2 things don't go together... & 2) those 2 things are largely the same across all ROMS whether you're full Sense, stripped-Sense, or AOSP. Just find what you like and enjoy!

SO wutZ da best roms to use?
Just joking, but it's too bad some people are serious.

Its all about your liking that's it otherwise there is not a rom whit better battery life than any others

I've been using Ordroid (Sense4) for a week or so now and I've found it quiet stable to be honest. I haven't experienced any crashes.
The batterylife was in 5.0.X about 17 hours (2 hours of screen turned on).
V6.0.0; I can't say if there are anything wrong just yet since its been out for about 2 days only and I've used it for 1 day. but the first batterycycle was about 21 hours with 2h 5m screen turned on. Only thing I could complain about with Ordroid is the partially working BT, I can't say anything about the Wifi-tethering issue because I am not using it.
Hmm, well I guess that was that.

The partially working Bluetooth issue is across all Sense 4 ROMs. It has to do with the fact that Sense 4 was ported from another device with different BT hardware - so the Sense drivers aren't fully compatible.
With the release of T-Mobile's official RUU, it may be time try Sense 4 again and see if some of the previous issues I experienced are fixed now. But BT will probably always only be partially working due to the driver issue.

I tried Elegancia Sense 4 again last night. I thought it was time to give it another go since there have a few builds released since the last time. Unfortunately, nothing has changed. Whatever issues I'm having are buried deeper than what gets changed from build to build.
My phone has crashed on my twice in the last 5 hours. It's unfortunate. I really like Sense 4 - I think it's cleaner & smoother than 3.6. The camera is better and faster than 3.6. But if your phone crashes on you while changing menus or doesn't wake up and you have to pull the battery all the time, then it's useless.
Does anyone else have these issues with Sense 4? Maybe another Sense 4 ROM is better? I have not yet tried another Sense 4 ROM because it seems they all use the same base. Maybe I should try another and see if it works better...

The new InsertCoin ROM Sense 4.0 is out now, looks very stable, only FM Radio not working. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546731

I just flashed OrDroid Sense 4. I'll give that one a shot. It has a different base - the new leaked Ville RUU instead of the One S. The Ville and Sensation share the same processor, so maybe that will do the trick.
EDIT: That one's no good for me either. It has its own set of glitches I'm not willing to live with.
Now trying Steve's new TMOUS Elegancia with Bricked kernel.

Any tradeoffs for non Sense ROMs? I know the camera app is better on HTC's but other than that? Is there a Torch app similar to the stock one? Etc..

...and back on Elegancia 3.7.6. lol
I am running the updated TMOUS firmware now, tho. along with the other radio fix for TMOUS users. This might be the best combo I've run yet. But I'm still anxious for a fully functional Sense 4 ROM.

For me, I love the overclocking of custom roms/kernels. Stock Sensation is 1.2ghz. My custom rom Sensation is 1.7ghz. Man is it speedy. I took the time to read countless posts and spent a ton of time learning how to mod my Sensation. No way am I going back to stock carrier rom.
