Cyanogenmod or Coredroid...

I just got my new inspire 4g and was thinking to flash it with Cyanogenmod but I like the sence UI I found that coredroid V 4.6 includes the sence UI and runs on 2.3.3 which is pretty good, but is it worth?

try them both see which one you like just make a nandroid back up.
Its like asking which is better chocolate or vanilla..

ive tried both and liked both. but i stuck with the coredroid rom myself. its the best ive tried and i also used the core roms on my hd2.

Does the dual microphone work with it? I'm not sure how you'd check though lol
And how is the sound?

Does anyone know which has better battery life?

CoreDroid 5 FTW!

I was reluctant to give up Sense- it's a great shell. But I have made the switch and I am glad I did.

I love CM7..... I have tried a bunch of the 2.2 roms and even with juice defender i can't get any better battery life.

Personally I would go with CM7, but I hate Sense and the inevitable lag that always comes with Sense ROM's. CoreDroid has to be the best Sense ROM I've tried, though.

Dilligaf has a really smooth ROM with Sense, too. I'd be back on it if I weren't digging MIUI so much.

Non-Sense Roms and Sync?
Do you lose the ability to sync to your PC with HTC Sync if you are using a ROM without the Sense UI?

In my experience if you cover the mic on the back you will sound muffled to callers on the other end of a phone call. That could be one way to test.

I started out with CM7 and haven't left it yet. I just love the vanilla Android experience over Sense. Don't get me wrong I like Sense but I think Android is better off without skins on top of it.

I liked both, but sticking with CM7 for now... It just comes down to personal preference as they are both good.

I think that Sense is the best of the skins out there comparing it to motoblur and touchwiz especially but it will always be the least of all evils instead of actually adding something to my user experience with Android.

I decided to go with CM7, and am quite happy. I was very happy to get rid of Sense, especially the twitter app.
The running battery life is definitely worse than stock, but not too bad. I'm using SetCPU to limit the clock to 375 whenever the display is turned off, and that has helped my standby/sleeping battery life noticeably.

[Q] Is the miui rom safe to use

I have been using this rom for a week already just wanted to know is this rom safe to use?
love the rom but i also do work for myself just wanted to know before I use this rom to check bank, pay for anything on the go I need etc....
your feedback would be nice

Absolutely. It is a very popular ROM, built off CM7 source. If you really are concerned, check out miui-dev.com or the post on MIUI in the Inspire 4G development section here.

I hear it could cause thermonuclear war. Or was that Cyanogenmod?

LMAO +1 made my night reading that lol.

It's one of the more stable ones, now anyways. But, im currently downloading CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.1 Just because I prefer it. If i wanted my phone to look like an iphone i would have bought an iphone. But if your ever looking at other ROMS check out CoreDroid. It has been good to me for all the time i've used it before.

I hear Chuck Norris beta-tested MIUI... on a iPhone.
I'm not a fan of the iPhone look either. Just add a launcher and you will be back to what you are used to seeing, only slicker.

That's why I don't want to use it myself. I just came from iPhone 4 so if I wanted an iPhone UI I would have remained there. I love vanilla styled ROMs hence my choice of CM7!

Like I said, if you put a launcher on it like a lot of us do anyway (ADW, Laucherpro, GOLauncher), it doesn't look like a iPhone anymore, it looks like the launcher on any other ROM; app drawer is back, all the widgets work, it's what you are used to seeing and using. Then you see the difference in the little things, like settings screens, performance, ect. Seriously, if you are flashing ROMs anyway, it's worth a try.

DITTO to CoreDroid 5.1
Cannot go wrong if you want troublefree use from your device!

What's your favorite Sense 3.5 rom and why!

What is your preffered Sense 3.5 rom on Sensation today?
Is it the fastest one? The more stable one? the more ...?
I am using Senseay and though it's very stable I wonder if there is any rom faster and funnier out there.

LeeDroid's is the best one

InserCoin is the best ,then Elegancia

I'm currently using Sens-O-Matic (or so) and i like it. At the first day i had some random reboots but not anymore (just didnt accur anymore).
The good thing about it is, that you can choose which bloatware (HTC Hub, HTC Notes, HTC whatever) you want and what you don't want.

There is a thread with a poll, where you can see what people think. I think it is in forum general!
I agree with the poll, that is ARHD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849) is the best;-)
Why fast smooth and so on.

Elegencia is faster than Senseay? I mean in scrolling,drawer...
I which we can have the sgs2 speed with a sense 3.5 rom

The only 3.5 roms that ever ran up to snuff for me was Energy, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226564, and LeeDroid was probably just as good. I'm not sure how it is now, but when 3.5 roms first starting being uploaded, they ran really bad on my phone. They're good now though, but I prefer AOSP.

that maybe the best rom for sensation (i never used it), but you will have sense 3.0 and not 3.5 with it.

I prefer sense-o-maniac because of "bloatware free" and many good features. Battery life, too

+1 Sense-O-Maniac is a very cool fast 3.5 rom!

I've really liked InsertCoin's stuff, especially 3.4.5 (the current one). It might be my imagination, but some of the releases are hit-and-miss, but 3.4.5 is absolutely a hit.
Smooth as silk, great battery life, no random reboots or force closures. Love it.
I also liked ARHD, but I had random reboots and boot loops that drove me insane. May have been the specific release I used though, who knows.

Sensay, insert coin, sense-o-maniac and digitalized are my favorites all are fast smooth and don't have bugs that I found just look at there features and pick

Actually it is 3.5, depends which flavor you going to flash of the ROM.
Either 3.x.x = sense 3.0 or 4.x.x = sense 3.5

Senseay is great and stable but battery life is terrible,playing games more than 10 mins will eat 20%!
What about the new ''a la mode'' Elegencia rom?
I think I will choose between ARHD and Elegencia (for the themes).
Later when ICS port will be fully functional (Trip one) I will try it

I'm new to the sensation and I was going to post this same general question. I know many have their own favorite and it's an individual choice but I'd really like help narrowing things down. I came from the G2 and it seems like a LOT of these sensation roms are very close to each other, I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out the differences between them. I think it'd be helpful if more of you described WHY you like the one you like.

Synergy r93. Hands down nicest 3.5 ROM I have used.
Thanks *damo*

Official MIUI V4 for HTC One S is coming soon!

Source: http://a.pytt.nl/miui-one-s
Facebook source: http://a.pytt.nl/miui-one-s-fb
Translated: http://a.pytt.nl/miui-one-s-en
Seems MIUI is working on getting their new version working on the HTC One S! They say testing by the Beta Team will start soon!
Looks like it includes the original HTC Camera App? (unless that's like that in very MIUI V4?)
Who's thinking of using this instead of Sense or AOSP, when it's released?

This is great news!

I will try it, if it fast like the AOSP, becuase now i have some data connection problems...
And i like the HTC Camera..

VERY nice, finally with a working Camera.
Im probably gonna switch over to MIUI, since I prefer to customize the UI the way I want to make my device even more unique :-3

The HTC camera its a pretty good thing! I'll totally give it a shot!

It will be better with a sense base. Cm and aokp are just not stable enough to use as a base.for the sensation they used a sense base as well and it worked perfect

I'm glad to see One S users will have a choice. When this becomes official MIUI.us will release both, as I will be continuing my CM9 based port. The different ROMS will have different advantages over the other. I've never actually used one of these sense-based roms but some of the complaints have been file size and theme compatibility. But like I said we will release both versions just like we currently do with the Sensation.

Theme compatability is a big issue phone and camera and other frameworks don't theme cause of the sense framework. So it depends if u want a themable cm9 version with bugs. Or a non themable version with no bugs. Its a tough choice.
But the sense version didn't seem to loose any speed compared to the cm9 counterpart at least on the sensation

I loved MIUI on my G2x, but I've been hesitating to root my HOS solely because of the camera. If they keep it in the official Rom I will puke rainbows and root faster than Usain Bolt can run 100 meters.

I've used miui for the mt4g for a long time before switching over to the One S but I'll wait to see how well they do with it, I can handle not themeing certain things as long as everything is working properly .

Holy hell.

This will be EPIC.

There's a temp fix for the radio issue posted towards the end of my thread. Once they figure it out I am updating the base.

MIUI v4 always based on stock roms, thats why htc´s camera is working on MIUI too.
Actually i am in the closed beta team from miui and waiting for the first version for testing all that ****. :good:
@luddeblaesild Multilanguage is planned for future releases.

Oh my gosh. That's amazing news, I really like MIUI, but i stayed with leedroid only bc of the camera

Fyi miui.us has the English version posted on their home page...like I said I'm continuing using my port but would like to hear some feedback on it. I'll be posting an official thread on MIUI.us a little later today

[Q] What do ppl do with their AOSP based ROM?

Just my opinion, all of the UI's like Sense UI or Touchwiz looks much better than the AOSP stock UI. So maybe I am missing some information here...but do people get AOSP based roms like Cyanogenmod/AOKP just for the performance? And then do they just get their own themes to make it look like TouchWiz/Sense or whatever UI they like?

There aren't any touchwiz like themes for aosp nor are there any sense ui based themes that I know of. Most of the aosp theme creators don't theme to make it look like touchwiz as its look is one of the reason they went with an aosp rom instead.

I respect your sarcasm my friend.

I just tried Touchwiz the other day and I like it, but I've been an AOSP user for a very long time. I like the look and feel of AOSP much more and there are a very large amount of people who agree.

I like the look of aosp but the only rom that I tried with similar signal strength with touchwiz was Avatar 4.1.2.

I'm all about the vanilla android feel that I get with AOSP and AOKP ROMs. I love the drastic difference in battery life since not many background processes and it is just much snappier and lightweight.
I've never been a fan of TouchWiz... it reminds me too much of iOS in some strange way. Before I bought my S3, I had to look around at some good AOSP ROMs so that I'd be able to tolerate it. Lol. HTC Sense, to me, is awesome though... but my old HTC phone ended up with an AOSP ROM.

I got bored with TW features. AOSP constantly has new features/changes and tweaks to play with on older features.

Battery life with AOSP will usually be better. My explanation is stated in my previous post.
