[Q] Best Non Sense ROM

Guys what is the best aosp rom so far. In terms of speed and abscence of bugs?

I think Saga LBC Mod and Virtuous Unity Miui has the best looking UI n faster but lots of bugs

Oh sorry. U r asking about non sense based ROM. Only MIUi is going to be best after some days as it becomes stable. Superkid is working Hard. Let's wait.

MIUI is one of the best, bugs are minimal.

Thanks for that.. thats one of my chiices.. miui and cm7

I have been using Cyanogenmod for a while now. I have found it to be really stable. The latest version (NeoLojik's v1.0.2) has much improved battery life and all the configurability of CM.

Using ZuluGen now. Got no bugs at all since I used it.
Battery life is also very well. And it based on CM7.
By the way, need to install some application to use T9 keypad.
Overall, very superb.

I can 100% agree with runagate17. I switched from Stock Rom 1.47 to this CyanogenMod and it feels like having a new device in terms of speed. I encountered no stability problems yet. You can also apply a sense theme, if you need some eye candy.

ZuluGen also based on CyanogenMod, so, can totally agree with you too.

I think all are becoming quite mature with minimal bugs. Just have to try each one and see which you like the most.

Best advice, i completely agree.

Omg, i wasnt in this part of the forums for years
Well, in my opinion your decision shouldnt be about who is faster or who is not. all non sense roms here ( at least miui, cm and zulu) works fast as hell.
The idea is the gui, zulu have a really nice gui that looks and fells like android, cm have a pretty standard android gui and miui have a more ios look
Your choice!

MIUI and ZuluGen from my experience.
Both have great battery life and minimal bugs.
It's most likely a choice of which one you like the feel of most.

just lookin for a rom like Hydrogen..
is there one without bugs tho.?

Agreed! MIUI is a great rom, and is very fast! just takes a bit of getting used to as its completely different to sense!

Anyone flashed the latest MIUI? Does it have any bugs?

[Q] Your best Sense-less ROM

All,
I have a sensation as well as a galaxy nexus. I love the senseless ARHD on my nexus and would like to get something similar for my sensation.
Anyone tried out a sense-less ROM and love it?
What is it?
Thanks.

Check the developer forum. Virtuous Inquisition is one of the most popular ones.

either that or cyanogen mod, although i prefer it less, still quite good

Those were the two I have been eyeballing already.
Any others worth taking a look at?
Thanks.

I'm really happy with HyperSensation. It's a CM 7 fork and is super stable.

I'd agree with the guys, Virtuous Inquisition would be my first try, although I am current having a test with the Quattro rom, another from the Virtuous guys and seeing its still an alpha its looking good.

Virtuous Inquisition is my favorite senseless ROM ! ;-)
Super stable, no reboots for more than a week, fast and no junkware on it

Virtuous Inquisition is as sweet as IceCreamSandwiches

CM7 running awesome with Baked Sensation Kernel.

In looking at the change log...
I imagine the lockscreen issue when a call comes in can be frustrating.

What do you want AOSP, CM9 or Sense 3.6 or 4?
CM9 and AOSP you should go to modaco.com and search for TripNRaveR's Roms.
If you want Sense you should try InsertCoin here on XDA.

I just got mine about three days ago.
Coming from a Galaxy, EVERYTHING about HTC sense makes me sick to my stomach.
Went with the one with most views I saw - AndroidRevolutionHD, and went through the INSANE process of going from stock to ICS.
Now running 1.7GHz, replaced HTC sense with the AOSP themes.
Only bugs I see so far are htc.bg crashing, messaging app getting rather wonky with multiple texts, and the music controls sticking on the lockscreen after Google Music closes. Also no MMS at home for me. No signal, Wifi calling only, but the AOSP app doesnt support that. Boohoo.
So that's my reccomendation.

Why use a Sense Rom and replace it with AOSP theme and launcher??
Flash an AOSP or CM9 Rom if you dont like Sense.
Best ones to find on modaco.com by Trip.

No video camera or bluetooth is a pretty good reason. And honestly, the Sense to AOSP roms aren't noticably slower than straight up AOSP.

Ah o.k. And no MMS, no Signal and only WiFi calling is so much better?
Didn't try this Rom but if it realy have this bugs its not useable i think.
For most people its more important to make calls than use BT or make videos.
But o.k everybody has their own needs.
Did you ever try One of Trips roms?
Dont think so because than you would not say that there is not much difference in speed between Sense with AOSP theme / launcher and pure AOSP.

Thats no AOSP rom. Its a Sense Rom with most Sense parts removed and some AOSP apps included.
But its still a HTC Sense Rom.
Sent from my ICS Sensation powered by TripNRaVeR

Well the only "sense" rom I played with was stock on 2.3 - and in five minutes I knew I hated it.
And actually bluetooth is a must for me. I don't make calls at all, but I use a keyboard and use my phone for writing documents and taking notes.
I'll give Prime a try if these bugs get any more severe. Getting really tired of constantly wiping.

Than a tablet may be the better choice for you.
Biger screen to work with and a Keyboard Dock with Touchpad (Asus Transformer).
Also available with 3G module to make calls.

I switched from ARHD to OrDroid and I freakin love it. Sense 4.0 is awesome and runs smooth on the Sensation 4G. Just dump the Sense launcher and use something like Apex or LauncherPro instead.

Try them all and see which one you like best. They are all good. Try sense and senseless Roms. My personal favorite is Elegancia after trying many.

I love my Sensation XE now more than ever after I flashed ORDroid v5.0.2 + SoundBoost + Equalizer + faux kernel.
I don't know if its just me but the beats sounds way much better than when I was on ARHD v6.6.3. The only downside is I get a better battery life on my last installed rom.
As the previous poster mentioned above, use other launcher like Apex or Nova.
Here's ORDroid v5.0.2

Same here. Although, I like the Sense launcher, to me 3rd party launchers with Sense feel really out of place.
On a side note, I hope LauncherPro gets updated someday. It was excellent on Gingerbread and Froyo on previous phones.

Really, another which Rom is best thread.
What's wrong with the countless other identical threads out there.

While I mostly agree, I need to correct some things....no offense.
Virtuous isn't AOSP, it's an AOSP "experience" based off sense base. True AOSP right now is Opensensation which is (CM9).....also as listed in your last suggestion cm9 (opensensation) isn't that customizable right now.
Also, while many suggest to try them for yourself......to someone who just rooted their new sensation, this can be a long process, with plenty of time consuming reading and configurations....
So I think it's best to offer the OP a starting point:
Pure stock like sense (3.6) - ARHD
Pure Stock like Sense (4.0) - Don't know if there is one, most I've tried are too laggy, and have too many bugs....but try any one to get the feel...maybe Coindroid
Pure AOSP - Opensensation (I don't even notice the bugs as listed)
Pure MIUI - There isn't one
- MIUI.us and MIUI android are based off sense base
- UltimiuIcs is based off AOSP, but developer is finishing exams
Given the above, they offer a starting point (with MIUI and sense 4.0 a starting point just to see what it's about) IMO, I'd wait for MIUI AOSP based if you like that, and wait for bug free sense 4.0 if you like that.
The rest of the roms, sense and AOSP are just variations on the starting points above.....with some being tiny, tiny visual variations (the rest under the hood), and others quite a few modifications.
As far as my onions:
- I find sense too laggy, I mean our phones can handle it....but of you want battery life, your gonna have lag.
- I recently moved to Opensensation, and can't even compare the speed....even underclocked, undervolted....while I do miss some sense features, they don't even compare to the speed.
- I recently tried "eyecandy" AOKP, based off AOSP....and there is a lot of tweakability and theming works as I'm sure more will be available.
As far as kernels.....if running sense, I'd use bricked, if running AOSP, use stock kernel with rom, or faux kernel.
Hope that helps for a starting point....and NANDROID...NANDROID!
That way you can easily revert back if you don't like one or get into trouble.
Cheers!

Sent from my Sensation 4G using XDA

You can try miui, open sensation and cm9. I'd recommend open sensation as blue tooth and audio routing works there.
If you don't like aosp or aokp, try virtuous inquisition, though it's sense based, but you don't see/experience sense anyway as it's all removed.
And oh, use the search button next time. These are pretty basic stuff which you can get info from reading and searching the various threads here in xda.

Take VI for a spin!

Running ARHD with NoSense.. best there is..

Try aokp. It was pretty fun. Ran it for quite a while as a daily driver. I was on official build 38.

Try smartdroid, it's sense based but many sense parts were removed, just like VI there's no sense to see

flash aokp b39, last release. you won't regret.
is very stable, you can customize everything, and is THE FASTEST ROM for sensation. even more than sense 3.6...

cm9 here. it's great.

What's NoSense? I have ARHD running, but I don't see any links to NoSense on the tweaks page.

All working good for me.
On a side note, I don't believe that using the search bar to find a good senseless rom is a good suggestion. While I do believe in searching for problems or fixes.....the aosp/aokp world can be quite confusing with all the roms out there. Considering that ones opinion is a valuable resource in making a decision out of many......I see a thread like this a valuable resource.....as I also do with the opinions on best rom threads.
