tried searching...best non sense gingerbread rom

I know there have been many threads about this, but for some reason my search is not pulling up any answers....
Just a simple question,
What is the best/most stable non sense/sense stripped Gingerbread rom?
Please note, Im not asking about CM7, ASOP, or ICS roms as I know none are 100%.
I dont know why my search is not pulling up related threads, so what is the most stable and fastest non sense gingerbread rom? I though I remember reading Virtusous was awesome, but I cant even find that...
Guessing something is wrong with the search so can you guys give me a few choices with the links?
Thanks

I suggest ARHD the gb version is perfect.

I thought it had sense, is there a version with sense stripped out?

There have been a few mods that say you can turn the sense off, but I have never tried as I love my sense and actually won't use a rom now unless it has Sense 3.5 as I like the features of that sense rendition better than 3.0.

Funny, I went through a massive search today to find the best non-sense GB rom. Sadly, HyperNonSense GB is no more and has been replaced with the ICS version. Two others, Beastmod and Senseless Extreme are hosted on multiupload, and that goddamn website seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth.
That being said, I'm back on Virtuous Inquisition, which is great, but I don't want to use ICS until custom roms are based on an official release.

I started to try out different ROMs and the "Knowledgeable Ones" said, there is no best one to point out other than trying every ROM. Man it's soooo true ! The best one for me may not even suit you. I HAVE tried every GB ROM out there and settled with "SENSEAY ROM removing the sense with No-Sense script" keeping the essential parts of sense like lockscreen but making it super smooth & i think as the development of GB ROMs are complete, further upgrade or assistance is no more needed and that's why developers are giving their time for ICS. You can use the search button for whole week looking for best ROM, but i think it will only make you more confused . Start with a ROM u like (Use no-sense script if u wanna get rid of sense), if u like it more, make a nandroid backup & try another one. U have to be the one to decide the "BEST ROM"

Use ARHD 3.6.13 and use the No-sense script. It's very speedy and great battery life to boot!

it is not speedy.... i went from arhd (gb) to arhd (ics) to virtuous inquisition (ics) and the peformance difference is night and day.. arhd even with the no sense script is definitely laggy compared to AOSP

so your using the GB version of Virtuous Inquisition? I can only find the ICS version... can you link me to it?

MIUI 2.2.3!!!!!

Would prefer the Coredroid 3.3 GB really stable and fast/smooth interface has a lot of tweaks also, tried others keeps FC on some application, cant remember which app but mostly the sense. Goodluck. Now im on DF ICS and im keeping my Coredroid 3.3 backup just in case i want to revert back.

Best non-Sense ICS rom? and is this the best way to upgrade?

hey guys,
So im still on Gingerbread. Thinking of finally upgrading to ICS. I have a Tmo Sensation 4g.
So I was going to use this guide to follow as the upgrade procedure to ICS:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472298
But instead of flashing the exact rom in the guide, I was thinking of flashing a non-sense version...
So 2 questions:
1. Can I just follow that guide and flash any ICS rom, or since Im following that guide do i need to flash the same rom that is in that guide rom? If I do flash the rom in that guide, since Ill be on the correct firmware, can I just go then and flash any of the new ICS Roms?
2. what would you guys consider to be the most stable, cleanest, or best non Sense/Senseless/ or Sense-stripped ICS Rom?
Thanks so much everyone. I realize there are lots of related posts, but I cant find an exact answer for my question

If you want a non-sense rom, flash the Virtuous Inquisition. It's pretty stable and i highly recommend it. Remember to flash the 3.32 firmware before flashing the rom.
And no, you don't have to flash the rom found in the guide if you don't want to.

thanks.
another quick question.
when ICS roms first started coming out, i seem to remember that there was some sort of setting where you had to enable or force both cores to run. is this still the case? if so, how?
thanks

Go with HyperNonSense, its really the only functional "no sense" ROM at this time. It also happens to be pretty good!

thanks for the response
i was thinking of going with Virtous Inquisition... but have not flashed it yet. Can you please tell me why Hypernonsense would be a better choice?
Thanks

flash different roms and see which one you like

Agree with this guy. Try it out yourself!
As for the other guy, he claims it's the only functional "no-sense" Rom without any backup/proof... It's already clear here that it's all opinion. I wouldn't believe him and I think he's just blurting that out, due to love for his fav rom. I'd do the same!

i use hypernonsense 1.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350492

thanks for all the responses. I first flashed ARHD ICS from GB yesterday as my first ICS rom. then i flashed hypernonsense due to the suggestion above as i am completely sick of sense.
all I can say is wow. this is by far the most i have loved my phone in a long time. will probably try VI at some point or any other non sense roms. but after leaving sense, I sure can not see myself going back to sense.
I used to have a first gen mytouch3g, then Vibrant, and now I finally like my Sensation
if anyone has yet to try a non sense rom, I strongly urge you to try one. the phone is so damn buttery smooth and it feels like a completely different phone

In sense roms i prefer : ARHD , InsertCoin
Non sense : Virtous , hypernosense

Best Stable Custom Rom?

Which is the best ICS stable & beautiful custom rom for HTC sensation?
I have seen lot of roms and i m really confused.. can anyone pl suggest one or two?
Thanks

Omg there is tons of thread like this ! Im sick of this seriously it just depends on peoples taste go try a rom and see for yourself if you like it or not ...
Its like asking what is the best car to drive ..
It just depends on you..
Not trying to be a douche or anything just sayin.

Sense 3.6 I'd say ARHD
Sense 4.0 I'd say OrDroid or InsertCoin.
But try a few and see what works best for you as said above.

no issues buddy.. i was just curious to know which is more stable as i m new to this..I will try those one by one on my own.. thanks..

ive had a pleasant experience with virtuous inquisition, eye candy w/ stability

I just flashed over Ordroid a couple of days ago sence 4. I was Amazed at the available customization during flashing with Aroma installer and AFTER installation with Ordroid tweaks! I just LOVE the options available to me! Is a stable rom, I get WiFi but not tethering. But besides the tethering its AWESOME so far! So much depends on what your personal needs are but by your post it sounds like you would really love ordroid. Little customizations make it uniquely personal. I highly recommend you try Ordroid 8.6.5. Sense 4 is amazing! But what like most is the ability to custoize. I don't think you will be sorry if you choose Ordroid!

This is horrible :/ i loved it on virtuous it was very well balanced.. can a 3rd party app help ?
And htc music causes wakelocks so alot of battery drain idk what to do battery isnt so good for me and all i do is listen to music

VI v4.0.2 works a treat for me!

Stock T-Mobile Sense 3.6 Elegancia rom. ****ing awesome! 1.1.0 to be exact. It's the stock rom with nothing added, just rooted.

Would definitely recommend Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.2
If you're more of a sense person, why not try Ordroid(Sense 4.0) or InsertCoin(Sense 3.6)?

Thanks guys got lot of info abt three custom roms... Seems ordoid and VI are the best..i m not into more sense but would like to try once sense 4.0...
Also i just rooted my phone and s-offd it. And downloaded some custom roms btr everywhere it says one warning that firmware should be 3.30 or something..and i have stock firmware 1.52 something.. I guess i need to upgrade it but got confused after seeing lot of threads..

bro, if you're new to rooting and flashing new ROM, i suggest you to try ARHD first because most of the guide are using ARHD as example. i started rooting two months ago, and read most of the info from there.

Yes upgrade to 3.32 firmware BEFORE you flash any Ics rom. And yes you will love ordroid especially if you like customization! Sense 4 is wonderful! Never had trouble with it yet. But please remember the firmweare is EXTREMELY important, you will get into trouble if you try to use any Ics (4.0.3) rom with out upgrading the firmweare first. So please upgrade to the 3.32 firmware FIRST. Hope this clears up the confusion and helps! It's very important you do this without question if you want the Ics Roms. Which your saying you do. Have fun and good luck! I know you will just love sense 4! Happy flashing!

Thank you very much everybody..i updated it to 3.32 and flashed it worth custom roms..i tried ARHD and VI and both are amazing.. Battery life has been the best..i have put ordroid on download and eager to check it also..never thought it would look so beautiful with those roms... Following i have downloaded:
ARHD (5 out of 5)
Energy (not tried yet)
Opensensation (not tried yet)
Hypersensation (not tried yet)
Virtuous Inquisition (5 out of 5)
InsertCoin Evolution (not yet tried)
There are lot of roms for this phone. Wish my razr also had roms like these.
Thanks

Best Sense Roms
OrDroid with sense 4.0, most bloatware removed, frequent updates, bugs HDMI out, WiFi Tether,
InsertCoin same as above, different theming
Team Pokemon, new sense 4.0, same bugs as above, however, Pokemon team has great tweaks as well as some of the best dev's, including the dev on OrDroid,
ARHD is the best sense rom without bugs, however Sense 3.6 with most bloatware removed, updating is slow, however, due to stability or the rom isn't a problem

You can try them all, you will end in the Elegancia's threads anyway!

I'd give Cyanogen Mod 9's Nightly build a try. I flashed over from Android Revolution HD and I'll never go back. The entire build is sleak and smooth. Android 4.0 brought a whole new way to see things when it comes to Android for me.

Sense 4 Roms

Which one r u guys using ?
To me, there is really difference between all the different sense 4 Roms...
Excluding the themes.
Insertcoin seems the most stable n no bugs or twitches.

I'm using the ViperS sense 4 Rom its fast stable and has OTA updates
Sent from my 1.8 GHz HTC Sensation 4G

If i haven't understand it wrong, OrDroid and InsertCoin became CoinDroid, after some development the name changed to OrDroid again, next became PkMn and last ViperS, so if you want the best Sense 4 rom experience i wil go with ViperS..

Mmm is this true ?
I tried viper s but it doesn't have a lot of tweaks that insertcoin has when first installing in aroma
Sent from my Sensation 4G using Tapatalk

ViperS has a big Tweaks App after flashing.
You can customize a lot.
Best Sense 4 from at the moment.

Also using viper
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

Elegancia because I really like the theming. Well except for the statusbar icons, but I replaced those with stock and all is good. The rest of the framework looks amazing!
I tried ViperS briefly, but really missed the Elegancia look.

I've tried both Elegancia and ViperS. I prefer the ViperS rom. It has a lot more tweak to sense 4, like infinite scrolling. Although I do like the theming on Elegancia a bit better. I haven't had any major bugs with either and the both have pretty good battery life.

ViperS ROM with overclocked 1.4.1 kernel seem to be very good for me so far! Fast & smooth and lots of tweaks!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda app-developers app

Viper is what I'm using. I really like it. It has many tweaks and even ota (over the air) updates for the Rom! I believe it's the only Rom that does the ota updates. Makes installing a upgrade very simple. When the update comes out you simply download over the air . No need for the computer. This is a wonderful feature.

incorrect, ordroid and insertcoin merged to coindroid, then a while later separated out, then shnizlon joined pkmn team which then became team venom. insertcoin is still separate

Ahem, just pointing out my Sense 3.6 ROM has had OTA updates since version 3 - about 6 months ago
Fair enough its through an app and not intergrated into the OS but if m0narx would share how he does it (yeah he posted a thread about it a while back but the hack he posted back then doesnt work properly as it does in viper rom) then it would be intergrated

VipersS is pretty stable and smooth, lots of customizations. It could use more speed, updates are getting slower though.

The next update will include speed increases, or so venom hub says. And the updates are getting slower too because it's pretty damn stable with a mountain of tweaks. Speed increases and bugfixes are all that's left to add to it really, maybe some more tweaks. It couldn't be more of a complete ROM if you tried. HTC could certainly learn a thing or two from team Venom, makes a big global corp. look like a bunch of amateur devs who toss out the first thing that "works".

Oh it's one hell of a rom of course, & it has been, even back when Venom was called Team Pokemon. And I guess I have been a little spoiled with these Sense 4 rom updates

Light sensor of Bricked
Anyone who uses Vipers 1.0.1 rom with Bricked kernel discovers that the background light is not changing as smooth as Faux Kernel ?
I've tried ViperS but as i switched the kernel to Faux's, the wifi cannot turn on normally.
有任何使用Vipers 1.0.1的各位發現當我用Bricked的核心時，背光的漸亮/漸暗會不順暢，但是用Faux的核心時，不管是開或關螢幕，背光都很流暢的漸亮漸暗。而且用ViperS只能搭配Bricked的核心，換了其他核心wifi就沒辦法正常開啟了！:crying:

You can't get WiFi to function normally because you switched the kernel to faux. On the first page of the Rom the developer gives a warning to NOT switch kernels as it can lead to WiFi issues . If you want WiFi working again wipe and re flash the Rom but use the kernel that came with the Rom and you will have both WiFi AND hotspot tethering working as it should . Hope this helps! Best wishes.

Best rom for me

Im going to root my sensation in the coming days/weeks, and I want to install a sense 3.6 rom that has........
Longer battery life then stock
Really stabile
Fast
And a good camera/or stock camera

I second the notion.
If the stock look and feel with a bit more stability are your criteria then ARHD is your choice.
However if you want some more options, tweaks, and customized UI then explore some of the other sense ROMS.
If Sense is critical to you, avoid all AOKP AOSP and Cyanogen ROMS.

Don't be lazy and find it yourself.

ARHD ftw if you like sense

revolution hd would be my recommendation as well

After root, flash showp1984 kernel.
No need ARHD.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium

I would recommend insert coin. It is so much faster tan ARHD in my opinion.

You should try a few! Currently on Frankinstine's JB aokp. Happy flashing!

Vipers 1.1.0 is quite good. I keep getting bored of Sense ROM's so I keep switching .

On my Sensation I prefer something light and fast. I currently using JB AOKP and trying out the JB MIUI as well. Try AOKP, MIUI, or AOSP builds as they make the Sensation a lot faster. If you want a Sense build ARHD and Baadnews are good. If you want Sense 4.0 then try ViperS rom.
After you try out a rom for a couple of days, then try out a Kernel. There are a few different options, depending if you do a AOSP or Sense base Rom.

I have used Virtuous Inquisition for a long time now. Not a single problem. Fast, Excellent battery life, and very stable.

I would also recommend ARHD.
You may also want to check out Virtuous Inquisition if you can do without Sense. I was running it for quite a few months and it was great. Long battery life and stable.
Check out a few and see what you like the most.
-----------------------------
Current Device: HTC Sensation 4G S-off/Super CID
Current Rom: CyanogenMod 10 (Bruce2728 Beta)
Previous Rom: Virtuous Inquisition

Previous Device: NexusOne

ARHD for stock look and its fast (slightly better battery life than stock) Downside its Sense 3.6
Viper S little slower compared to ARHD but tons of tweaks and Sense 4.0 (same battery as ARHD)
Happy hunting.

Hi there, you really need to try SEVERAL out for yourself because what might be right for someone else might not at all be what your looking for! Everyone has different opinions and its ALWAYS best to form YOUR own opinion. This is the fun part the experimentation! Please take my advice , read the change logs on the roms, if one catches your eye, try it! Make sure you do to your nandroid backups and shop around.we are fortunate to have so many available! Do your self a favor and try out many!
