[Q] What is your favorite ROM as of today?

Been fine on stock TMO rom. However I do want to upgrade to 2.3.4 So I have been studying the ROM section here on forum for Sensation.
I want Sense and as close as stock as I can get. Been leaning towards REVOLUTION or InsertCoin ROms. However I have read some issues with Insert Coin.
Could you give me what your using and if its stable?
Thanks team!

LeeDroid is the best IMO

What kind of issues have u heard about with insertcoin? I installed this the other day and it works great! Would also like to know what the leeroid has over insertcoin cause i was thinking about that one as well

Been using Insertcoin for the last few days, works great. No issues so far.

CoreDroid, all the 2.3.4 goodies along with one SEXY ass theme!

CoreDroid V4 (2.3.4) works well!

x 2 on CoreDroid. I've been using it without problems (other than the fact that autobrightness doesn't transition smoothly for me), and I haven't read of anyone else having that problem. Overall very fast and good looking rom.

Yeah coredroid really looks good on this phone. Rom is super slick too. Finally feels like a dual core is inside of it.

InsertCoin v2.1. I'll eventually upgrade to 2.2.1 or whatever the current release is soon. The stock kernal flies. I haven't given the custom kernal a go yet.

Senseless 1.3 =] Great rom with a great gingerbread theme.. Hopefully upgraded to 2.3.4 soon!

As soon as most of us switched to S-Off, I was heistant on flashing since most ROMS as already mentioned were unstable with very few options for T-Mo USA users.
However after messing around with a few stock rooted roms, I jumped on InsertCoin and have not looked back. Some hiccups in the begining, but stable overall. Great ROM.

Did you switch to the recommended radio for insertcoin as well? I really want to try insertcoin but am afraid of flashing radios, and CoreDroid has just happened to work fine with stock tmous radio, so it's a great solution as of now.

coredroid try it if u haven't yet what u have to lose

Using latest MDJ Virtous rom. He knows what he's doing.

Insert Coin far and away the fastest imo.

i don't have htc sensation but what about Android Revolution HD ROM ???

I first check RevolutionHD, but didn't find it much better than the stock rom, so I changed to Leedroid and with the brand new 2.3.4 inside I definitely love it.
Maybe will have a look on Insert Coin in the future ase many here are favoring it.

I agree - the first step you should do is to decide whether you'd like to use Sense-based ROM or not, as there's a great difference between those. For Sense you may check Virtuous Unity, for AOSP - Cyanogenmod 7.1. Only after that you may go deeper for more customized versions of either Sense or not builds.

I wonder if there's any noticeable differences between Virtuous Unity and Affinity. I know - the first is Sense 3.0, the second - Sense 3.5. But isn't the 3.5 just an optimized version of 3.0, and why do many people prefer 3.0 over 3.5? Most reviews I read didn't make it clear to me.

Thank you guys. I going to try sense. Rom. What do you guys think about miui roms. ?

Might be a dumb question but....

When the official ota is released will the ROMs be any smoother/different? I want to switch to stock Rom(sense eats up my battery) virtuous inquisition is only senseless. I want a completley stock Rom.... If so any idea of when this will happen? I love sense, just not the battery life
Sent from my insertcoined Sensation 4G with Beats Audio

The official OTA has already been released, ROM's like ARHD 6.5 are based on it.

But the official ota is also only in certain areas right now, but there r some stock roms out there already. Just browse the development section

I know but I don't want sense... And most are just sensless though... The only true stock I've seen is virtous Quattro but its out dated

There is never going to be an official stock or AOSP ROM...

You do realize that ANY stock rom for Sensation will come with sense don't you??? I only ask cause you state sense eats the battery but stock will come with sense as well. Not to mention bloatware that will probably use some battery too.
If you are looking for battery saving stuff, you are better off with a modded rom from some dev here.

Actually rooted roms run way another and faster than stock roms since must if them are stripped of bloatware and other ram eating applications.

Yeah, which? I'd like t know... There are some, unfortunately they all come with something broken, I wouldn't consider them super stable yet! Correct me if I'm wrong but CyanogenMod isn't even available for the sensation! (I think I'm wrong.. I think it works but tons of bugs. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong!)

Senseless Roms don't count either
Sent from my insertcoined Sensation 4G with Beats Audio

You're confusing people with the terminology you're using. Official means from the manufacturer and stock just means untouched. With HTC being the manufacturer any official stock ROM will come with Sense.
The real point is when HTC release their ICS kernel source and drivers, then developers can really get to work and hopefully release fully-functional AOSP ROMs.

Ok sorry for the confusion..
I mean like a Rom that's ICS with no sense... But not a senseless Rom like inquisition...
Sent from my insertcoined Sensation 4G with Beats Audio

of course HTC won't release it OTA. Because they're always with their Sense. Maybe they will update to sense 4.0. but not to AOSP.
u can wait or try the avaiable CM9 though

just rooted and S-off, wich ROM.... ?

I just rooted my Sensation XE and got it S-off. :victory:
Installed Rom Manager and Titanium backup (backed-up everything).
Now i don't know wich Rom i would use....there are so many...
I want it to be stable, i use Go Launcher instead of Sense because Sense had the ennoying problem it was closing to free memory when i was using a load of memory. In Go Launcher i can select it to remain always open.
I would like a stable ROM wich keeps camera, bluetooth etc....all working without problems.
In addition of this question i would like to know if i can just remove Sense true titanium backup from my phone without problems? (on stock rom or other ROM ? )
I hope i put this thread in the right section 'cos i'm not used to using this forum yet
Thanks in advance for every reply :good:

You should seriously try Virtuous Inquisition very fast and stable. It's running Android ICS. But I don't know if you installed the required firmware. If not, do so.
Oh, and it's an AOSP Rom and it's senseless. Everything works fine.

Were can i find that rom and info about the requierd firmware ?

You can find the required firmware specs on the developers site of each Rom. I highly suggest trying out SEVERAL roms and see which one fits you the best. I'm using lightening Rom now.its brand new sense 4 and is fast and smooth! I think you would like it! No problems with it. But see its all a matter of personal taste . So do yourself a favor and try out SEVERAL! Have fun and happy flashing

In my opinion Android Revolution HD us the best rom I tryed, Mike does not use portings to ensure maximum stability and speeds... It comes with sense 3.6 bit on the thread he provides a script to completely remove HTC Sense...
It has a completely stock look... It's just optimized and updated.

What are you all retarded ?!?!?!? You gotta go aosp!!!! CM9 is the best choice only retards and crackheads like sense overlay (all offense) lol

I must say that on factory ROM i was using Go Launcher because Sense got closed sometimes when I was using many RAM. Reloading Sense always took a bit of time wich I found annoying. The downside of using go launcher was the loss of the HTC widgets... Go contacts wasn't so good in my opinion. In my current ROM Sense didn't close once so for me it's perfect. It looks very beautiful and it's faster than ever before.

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
Kernel: Stock
Recovery: 4EXT
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!
