as the title says. i was running CM7 on my DHD and my sensation for the longest time and was anxious for the CM9 release. i tried CM9 for a bit then decided to flash HNS and then Virtuous. my point is, CM9 still has a few bugs and CM10 beta has been released. will CM9 be left since CM10 will now be the focus? i was waiting for a solid CM9 rom to be released but i guess i'll see how the progress of CM10 comes along.

CM10 is still in alpha stages... very little important aspects even work
CM7 and CM9 are based on two completely different Android builds, CM10 based on JB is very similar to CM9 based on ICS
If the developers manage to get a fairly stable build of cm10 they may well move on to cm10 altogether. Does not make sense to develop cm9 anymore. Well unless there is something important in cm9 that cannot be fixed in 10
I thought I read somewhere that CM9 will still be worked on and right now they are looking to release the CM9 RC. CM10 was out quicker because it's base off of CM9 and is not a build from the ground up like it was for CM9. Because of this, they can use most of the build to work on CM10.
Cm9 is on RC2 now so I think cm9 came quicker and its basically fully stable. I use it as a daily

I second that. I stayed away from CM9 on the Sensation for a long time since it was just not quite stable/functional enough for me (stable maybe but some of the key functions weren't stable enough and battery life was killing me for a while).
Anyway, I installed CM9 RC2 late last week; I think the day it came out. Anyway... to the point... CM9 RC2 has been extremely stable for me, battery life has been great (not QUITE as good as some of the Sense-Less ROMs out there like Virtuous or ExtremeSensation but close enough). I much prefer a clean AOSP system anyway so I'm sticking with it.
With CM10 on the way I'm encouraged by the fact that we finally have a stable CM9 for them to build off of. Thanks to the whole crew who has been working on it!

What i dont like about cm9 is the overall volume... its very low compared to sense roms...
Hmm....the volume issue would be something worth investigating.
CM9 took quite a while for ROMs/kangs/unofficial nightlies to start appearing. This was because they needed to rewrite the whole CM source tree (the modifications CM makes to Android) from scratch. Jelly Bean, under the hood, is quite similar to ICS, so it's a lot lot easier to port things from CM9 to CM10. Porting things from CM7 to CM9 was almost, if not impossible.

I have been running the HFS rom since v1, and for the most part it's been very nice. However, I was saddened to learn today that the dev will not be working on the g2x anymore. I know there are a few other ICS roms available, but I do not know a whole lot about them as I've mostly been in the HFS forum. If this dev does in fact leave, which ROM would you recommend for replacement (ICS only plz) and why? (highlights and lowlights to be aware of??)
Thanks!! (hopefully this information will help out a lot of people)
I could be wrong but didn't the HellFire ROMs come from the Phoenix Blood ROMs? If they did then they took queues from EaglesBlood. That would be the one I would recommend. I am currently on a Gingerbread MIUI ROM but anytime I want to used a CM based ROM I always go with EaglesBlood because it has always seemed really stable and gets good battery life. The dev also is quick to respond and does his best to fix any problems. Just as an FYI there are 2 versions of EaglesBlood ICS:
This one is based off of the AOSP source code Here
This one is based off of the CyanogenMod CM9 source Here
Hope this helps!
I doubt hell is going to end his rom. All the cm9 based ROMs are about the same. AOKP is pretty nice. I like the clean and bare bones AOSP thing that eagle's blood has going on. Really these are just toys for now tho.

i've used pretty much all the ICS roms on here and by far the best have been Genesis and HFS
I'm not sure if I like Domination or HFS better because I haven't used HFS since 1.7 and I've been on Domination for quite sometime now. I'll be on HFS once the next update comes out. HFS has always been a favorite of mine, but Owain's ROM tempted me over and I've been on it since.
Genesis is really cool, but I prefer the CM9 power widget over the AOKP one.
I actually haven't tried EB since build 1. Maybe if I get bored, I'll switch to it again sometime, but I'm pretty happy with Domination and HFS.
In my opinion you just have to use some roms and find which fits your feel the best. I've went through maybe 3-4 ICS roms before finally sticking with ASOP 4.0.4 EaglesBlood for the (in my opinion) battery life and performance.
My phone loves Domination by Owain94, all others seem to not agree with mine so just try all of them and see what she likes

I agree. I tried HFS and it was really laggy on my phone. Performance wise eagles blood was much better.

been using it for 2 months, just flashed build 5, still not laggy. best ics rom ive used for g2x
until there is a rom that EVERYTHING is fully functional, i'll pass on ICS for right now.
Which one do you think is better? Im ready to flash my first rom on my sensation xe
Try both to see which one suits you more.
Virtuous Inquisition is more to the AOSP side, And it's stable as stable can get.
CM9 Is more on the AOKP side, Full of customizations but there are a few minor bugs.
They're both good. If you really love customizing your phone, I suggest you go for CM9, But you can't really say no to the smoothness of Virtuous Inquisition.
Ok thanks for your reply, trying CM9 first now
go for Virtuous Inquisition or HyperNonsense. CM9 still has a lot of minor bugs that need to be worked out. i have a feeling by the time CM9 is 100% complete, i'd probably upgrade to a new phone by then.
sent from the Penh.
Virtuous is more stable than any other ROM I've ever tried, looks great and it's fast too. Gets my vote. The only thing it's missing in my opinion is CRT animations.
Simply if you can handle some things not working 100 percent correctly, use Open Sensation as it is faster. If EVERYTHING must work, use VI 4.02.
Both are great roms.

This is wrong. VI is no where near AOSP. It just simulates the look. CM9 and AOKP are built on AOSP.

I like virtuous but I might try cm9 also. I've had No problems with virtuous at all what so ever
Best for u 2 try them both for a better self examination...happy flashing!
I think CM is the solution for longer term support, but I rely on my phone for work and I need stability so I've been on Inquisition. Opensensation is on rolling updates so if a particular image gives you problems, don't get discouraged--try another one from a different date.
I am with OpenSensation now and it's getting better all the time. VI is OK but to me it's like trying to eat soy beef.

This. Subtle little hints of Sense left and right. Granted it's patched now, but for example the dual usb dialogs. The sound when adjusting the volume. Etc. My hatred towards Sense drove me FAR away from these ROMs despite using VI for more than 90% of my daily use. Forcing myself to AOKP now.
Actually is smoother than VI in my case. I'd have all sorts of funky errors usually triggered by browsers (yes, plural, Chrome Mobile, Stock, and beyond) having to do .. something. More or less the ROM would bog itself down to getting about 1 screen refresh every 20 seconds.
AOKP hasn't done that to me. Yet.
Ironically, I'm prepping to flash the stock TMOUS leak to see if it's any better. Doubtful, really.
+1 for CM9, Virtuous run a litter slow for me

I'm on VI and that has never happened to me once. I don't get any crashes or slowdown at all, so I'm not sure what's caused it for you. Did you add any mods to it which could have caused it? Oh, and the sense USB connection screen is gone, that was removed a couple of ROM builds ago.

VI forever on my phone.. no other rom can beat this...
I was on opensensation and tried virtuous inquisition not really different but vi is more responsive, I think, but more heavy than cm9 ( not a problem for me)..
virtuous inquisition is only senseless STOCK ROM. if you want to try use virtuous quattro(asop) http://www.virtuousrom.com/p/quattro.html
With the release of CM 7.2 to a slew of new devices yesterday, why has the Skyrocket never had official CM7?
Because many felt that it was pointless because of ics I asked the same question long ago the answer always the same ics is coming why do cm7 yes I agree it would be nice to have a full cm7 build specifically for skyrocket and not the port but Eugene's cm7 is very capable and I must commend him for the effort he put in
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Well it seems that the CM7 team think it is still not pointless, as 7.2 stable was released for many devices. Including the NS4G, a phone that has had official ICS for a while as well as CM9 support.
It is obvious that our ICS leaks are not 100 percent nor is the new CM9 nightlies. All I am saying is that a stable CM 7.2 would be great for a device with only a couple of options of 100 percent stable fully working roms. Is there not enough people that agree with this?

Even the alpha 2 release of cm9 is way better than any cm7 I've ever tried. Why spend valuable time completely redoing an old version when the new version can be made even better instead and more work has already been done on it?
It just kind of seems like an all eggs in one basket kind of thing. With development only being done on CM9 we are stuck waiting until CM9 is final for a finished product.Meanwhile a final build of CM 7.2 is out there and could be ported to our device giving everyone more options. It seems like all anyone wants to develop for is ICS. But all our phone has for ICS is unfinished leaks with bugs and a CM9 beta that has bugs as well. Just saying more options would be better, especially when one of those is a finished build of CM 7.

While I agree with this point at the same time I must say a cm7 build would be great for porting over a plethora of roms and cm has always had great features

I have scoured the roms and flashed a bunch and all of the "vanilla" roms i see are just sense with apex or nova. Are there any stable, all vanilla roms?
CM9 alpha 4 is quite stable at the moment. I've used it for a few days without any major problems. That would probably be what you are after.
I've been using CM9 alpha 3 as my daily driver since it came out. Its pretty stable you just have to live with the bugs. To he honest I never run into any, after letting it all settle down.
I thought about cm9 but it seemed kinda unstable but thanks, i'll try it.
EDIT: I use camcorder and nfc a lot so I think i'll pass.....
Hello, can you recommande good working and stable clean ICS ROM(like Galaxy Nexus stock interface) for daily use that has no htc sense? thx
Try Fallout or AOKP. Both are pretty good, but have some bugs.
Anyway, they won't be as stable and good as we wish until new kernel from HTC will be released.
As far I know, there isn't any absolutely problem-free and bugfree ICS ROM due to that kernel.
Fallout is a great rom indeed, but it's sense.
Try IceColdSandwich, or Tectas Unofficial.
BlindIce is what you want! Almost perfect!

because of my obsessive-compulsive-rom-flashing fetish, I have tried Fallout, Miui, IceColdSandwich, BlindIce and Primo. While Primo and Fallout have sense 4 lite, they are not what you are looking for. Miui is stable and has a good set of features, however, the ICS version of Miui is laggy and slow. Another major drawback is that Miui seems to ape ios in terms of UI and that gets really boring really fast. After all, that is why we are on android no? I have heard that the AOKP stock from Tectas is not as fast as the IceColdSandwich rom (possibly because IceColdSandwich incorporates tweaks from a number of sources including linaro and has the camera working, which I haven't seen any posts confirming this for the AOKP rom). i've tried BlindIce too, and found it a bit too laggy for my taste. So, you are probably best off with IceColdSandwich, which I have found to be the least laggy, less buggy, with most bits and pieces working and regularly updated. All flashing was done with clean install, full wipe/factory reset and no restoring of apps. Yeah, OCD like I mentioned earlier. This is just my opinion, however, I'd love to hear more from others with different experiences.

I've tried CM9, tectas' AOKP and IceColdSammy. IceColdSandwich does feel like the smoothest and fastest of those 3. Didnt last long on CM9 and barely a day into it i went back to Reaper (still my favorite ROM). but that was one of the earlier CM9 builds, haven't gone back because every time i think about venturing away from Reaper, i try AOKP first (the latest one from Tectas is probably the most stable one of that series i've tried) then the IceColdSandwich (the latest version 8.3 is, again, the most stable) which is what I'm running now. I think i like the "cleaner", more stock android feel of AOKP. the smoothness of IceColdSandwich on top of that is plus too.
Been away from Reaper just a little over a week now and i might not come back or switch to another (yeah, right) until lowveld (fingers crossed) decides to build an ICS or JB version of Reaper.
ICE_DS by ronks is most probably the closest we can get to our official ICS OTA! With sense 3.6 though, might wanna try it out...
