Which Rom next?

Hey guys I've been looking to try another rom.
I've had gingerbeast, leedroid, miui, and now I'm on inspired ace.
I want a Rom the focuses on speed and stability. I want sense and I don't want force close issues. I've been looking at maybe trying virtuous unity, dilligafs sense Rom, or maybe ninja.
I want a Rom that has very few bugs and doesn't necessarily need to be updated all the time.
I should note that I'm very happy with inspired ace but I need more speed and hoping to find a Rom with stronger WiFi.
Eye candy is not a primary focus.
Which do you think should be my next Rom?

um, i already tried leedroid...
worked pretty good, but i want to try more roms before i can say that that is the best one for me...

CoreDroid hands down has the most/best features and you can always expermient with the kernels (unity and Lee's) to see which you prefer. Both are great kernels.

Virtuous. Do it.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

I loved virtuous but I'm trying cleardroid for a while see how this goes. So far the battery life has been amazing.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

Try Ingersoll.
Fast, stable, near stock experience...performance with no bells and whistles.
Still one of my fav ROM's even though I'm running with the Beast currently.

I love virtuous unity 1.25. Auto CPU dameon, tweaked sense 3.0, stable fast and good battery life to boot.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

I've most recently tried Virtuous and it looked good, but the audio (phone calls) sounded terrible. I'm not sure if I missed something, because I only flashed it to get a quick look at it. Maybe there was a fix in the OP or something specific to my device. Either way, I haven't heard other people with the issue and if I wanted Sense, that's what I'd want to run. Sense 3.0 is nice.

yea, i would like to try sense 3.0, so i think ill give virtuous a try
thanks for the feedback guys, ill revive my thread if i find it missing things i really want

I didn't see anyone recommend Android revolution. It's an optimized stock Rom. Very stable and doesn't update as often as others. Give it a try.

Ingersoll is pretty legit, I bounce from that to cm7, currently using Unity and It's pretty great except for battery drain and seems laggy at times and that could also be operator error

I installed it last night. Loving it so far, but I had to install the audio fix; as you said, the sound was crappy, but the audio fix took care of it. So far it's great. Best data speeds I've seen since Inspired Ace.

Virtuous
Sent from my Inspire 4G

I've run most every ROM, multiple times, for Sense, Virtuous Unity is the most trouble free. Lee, Core, Clear, AR, all had some issues for me.
For non-GB, Ingersoll is very, very good.
If you are having audio trouble on Virtuous Unity, it's most likely a kernel issue, not a Virtuous problem. Clear data, cach, dalvik and reflash. The audio is perfect on that ROM.

Might i ask where the audio fix is thanks

Best ROM

In my opinion Pyrimid3D is the best ROM going around, and Ive tried quite a few.

Be sure to vote for it if u like, and donations are always welcome.

it is really quick, but expect this thread to get closed almost immidiately, there are already a few of these around, and you didnt really explain your opinion
but to properly respond, my personal fav and daily driver is InsertCoin gb2.3.5, been using it since 1.x, and loving it ever since

Been using Bulletproof lately as I'm loving the tweaks menu.

Using Senseless Extreme3.1 as I got tired of Sense. Will use CM7 when it comes out.

No CM7 or MIUI till now Getting bored of Sense now I want MIUI!!!

Sorry for not going into detail.
Think the P3D ROM is great mainly because of the quickness, love the blue neon theme, and so many other things. Check out the features on the above link.
And sorry I'm a noon, but why would they close my thread?

Android Revolution HD 3.0.4 is the best ROM ever for htc Sensation
Super Fast
Super Smooth
Stable
Good Battery Life

I agree, at one is pretty cool. If I wasn't using P3D I would be using it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium

just because there are several kinds of this thread already going, but i suppose its pertinant, considering how many new roms are available now, and how many ppl have posted so far

I prefer the stock look over any themed ROM. Especially on the P3D. That neon theme is a love it hate it type of thing. Me, I wanna have full control on what I want on my phone rather than habing it themed for me. Same as with the font used on the ROM. Anyways, I'm running the beta 2.3.5 by baad with faux kernel and it's really fast and smooth. Also, I've tried every other ROM on the sensation and so far the stock based, meaning the untouched but deodexed or odex are the fastest and smoothest.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium

I have tried most of the ROMs and ended up staying with Energy. It is close to stock but themed just enough to be perfect, and I have never had any problems with it. It gets the best battery life, it's very quick and stable, and best of all the dev is on top of it, any found bug will be fixed instantly.

That would be awesome. I'm really enjoying flashing between all these roms available. I don't think CM is the end all of roms but it definitely adds to the variety in a very good way. Nothing wrong with options.

CM is really cool after all only the battery life ....

My top 3 as of Today...
1. Insert Coin 2.3.5. beta...Fast, Color is amazing, flawless
2. CoreDroid latest....Eye Candy is nice/fast/smooth
3. P3D 7.0 fast/great battery
havent tried LEEdroid or rcmix...

What was faster for you? CoreDroid or P3D? I'm on CoreDroid 2.3 right now and I love the theme, but I feel like it still isn't the quickest ROM and I'm getting in the mood to try a different ROM (CoreDroid has basically been the only ROM I've tried). If P3D is indeed faster I'll try it out since it has its own nice theme.

does the new faux kernel fix all the 3d and gaming issues?

I always go hack to eagleblood Rom.

After flashing several 3.0 and 3.5 ROMS I have to say the Virtuous ROM is very stable. I've had no problems, lags or FCs.
I have not tried any ICS ROMS so can't comment on their stability.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE Z710e using Tapatalk

I have three nandroids of Roms that I use, all of which are pretty good:
Virtuous Sensation - has most Sense
HyperNonSense - has a little Sense
RevertedAOSP - zero Sense, stock Android
My daily driver is RevertedAOSP because it is fast, solid, and with a few tweaks does everything I need it to do.

Good stuff.
Thanks guys

He's asking for ICS not gingerbread!
Anyways, I'm using webstar1's Ultimite ROM. Very smooth when compared to the other sense based roms. pretty much is AOSP, except for the Dialler/Contacts and camera apps. would recommend, very stable, hadn't had one FC yet. :]
EDIT: LOL sorry I misread the OP. -.- oh well!

Android Revolution HD (currently im using the 3.6.8 version see my signature) is good. It's stable and it's just like the stock ROM only more tweaked and overclocked to 1.5GHz. Despite that all the battery life is longer than the stock ROM itself while performance improves, so I would recommend you this ROM.
Must say that I haven't tried other ROMS yet (only the ARHD ICS ROM once, but after 30 minutes playing around I was bored so put it back to 2.3 with nandroid backup)

I just flashed Virtuous ICS 1.3.0 today and so far, while certainly beta, looks really stable! Unless something creeps out of the corners, looks like this will be my new daily driver for a while.

I haven't tried an AOSP yet. Thanks for the recommendation. 100% trying that right now !

Well, have flashed twice daily, since I owned the Sensation a couple weeks back, tried every rom in the android forum, a couple of roms i feel are rock solid stable, not force closing once, and a nice amount of battery, they are LeeDroids rom and CoreDroid rom, thats my opinion only, and for you just keep flashing, I also too am not a fan (yet) of ICS roms....... what am I using now???? see my signature

First I would like to say hello. I'm coming from the mytouch 4g slide. I wanted a bigger screen and didn't like the side's keyboard. I have yet to root. I figured I could wait till the official ICS update but I remembered I really hate sense. Any suggestions on aosp roms?

+1, virtuous inquisition is really good, but i prefer sense so i moved back to insertcoin

Opensensation cm9 > Inquisition guys. VI is a sense rom, anyway, not aosp. Now that we have bt and 1080p I don't know why anyone would stay on VI.
OP: Go with cm9 April 1st build, it's very stable, silky smooth and fast

Virtuous inquisition is senseless but once cm9 is out and stable switch to that. Its aosp and you will get the most out of your phone. Also flash a kernel that's 1.5 gigahertz like the Sebastian fm kernel. If you look on wikipedia the 4g sensation is under clocked. Same processor as the xe. Hope I hoped!

VI is about 99% aosp & has just a few Sense parts to make it work. It's fast, smooth, very stable, and very popular. If you wish to debate this, then contact it's great developer RMK40 & the Virtuous Team!

Hi,
You can also test ARHD 6.5.5 with the no-sense script ...
It's a very smooth and stable ROM

What bugs remain in both?

agree with you. ARHD is a wonderful ROM and is very smooth and stable..been using it for quite a while with no crash whatsoever..although it is based on sense 3.6, which in my opinion is awesome. heh

[POLL] Which ROM are you using?

Seeing that there are many options to choose from, I guess than a poll may help us decide. Which ROM are you using now. Are you happy with it and would you suggest it to others?

i'm using the stock one as it shows in my signature.i'm very happy with it
there is no need to suggest it to every one else because everybody has seen it:silly:

I am using bruces CM10 ROM. Working great!

I'm on DragunKorr's Paranoid Android 2.11.
Buttery as hell and i love the hybrid modes. It's not 100% working yet, but the missing elements are so minor that they don't affect me for how I use my phone.
If I weren't using this, I'd be on Bruce's CM10. He really set the standard there with that one and it's only cos I love the hybrid modes that I'm not using it.
Both ROMs have breathed new life into my phone - finally, the full power of the sensation has been realised!!!

pyromod CM9 here, pretty stable and fast. Good battery life too. I would definitely suggest it.

On Bruce's cmx and enjoying it very much very pleased that the CRT animations are fully functioning and the stock SMS app had pop ups now like hand cent does ^^ once they manage to get the front facing camera functioning I will never leave it I have also used berserk mode on by memnoc which I thought was very nice but the fact that I couldn't use wii remotes through Bluetooth on my emulators pushed me to full aosp not too sure where I am going with this aside from Bruce's cmX is highly recommended by me :thumbup: front facing camera and usbotg is all we need now

What about battery life, how is it?

I've tried several different roms. Virtuous Inquisition is good but it was giving me wrong battery reading, kept jumping up and down and I couldn't tell how much battery I had. CM9 is nice but the front facing camera doesn't work (at least on the versions I've tried). CM10 Jelly Bean by Bruce is great but it's unfinished, a couple of things are not working (front facing camera for 1).
I'm on ViperS 1.2.1 right now and I LOVE it. The rom is pretty fast and stable. I enjoy the tweaks the devs have put on it a lot. Battery life is pretty decent. I got around 18 hours on average use.
I think if you want speed and smoothness, go for the CM or AOSP builds, they beat all other in that department. I personally enjoy Sense 4 so I go with Viper S.

I used HyperNonSense for 5 months and just flashed Android Revolution HD an hour ago, no reason other than trying new rom

you have not forgotten anything? smartdroid daemon sense 4? I do not see

Used OpenSensation for some time and was very satisfied except that many icons and fonts are just too small for me. Switched to Anroid Revolution HD 6.7.2 and I love it.
Battery life is just average I think. Since I disabled Wifi, I can live with it.

Hi there, I'm using Viper Rom. I am happy with it! The update had made it much better I do have some weird issues sometimes like Bluetooth turning on by itself but for me that's about the only negative issue I'm experiencing. I do like the customization and really like sense 4.1. I would like to see better battery life from the Rom.but I'm now using sebastian kernel with mod and a slight under volt plus a new mugen battery and I've actually managed to stay on 100% for three hours! Thank God! So hopefully the battery issue is solved. But all in all for the people who like sense roms, yes I would recommend viper. Hope this information helps some how and I wish you the best!

I use Viper 1.3.0
Major categories of custom ROM according to me are -
Sense based - sense 4.0 based or
Sense 3.6 based
sense 4 based
Eg viper, insertcoin, ordroid etc
Sense 3.6 based -
Eg arhd, elegancia, etc
IPhone look - MIUI
Samsung look - cyanogen mod
Plain android - AOKP/AOSP Based
I have very less experience on these. I prefer sense based.
