Start by reading Qs and ANS section than read the features on FUSION KERNEL and VIPER S ROM (first and second posts) in developer section. They explain the shortcomings and possible improvements in hardware and software of HTC One S!

can you help

im on 4.0.4 trying to root but getting no were what is the best way to do this

There are many threads (both junk and old and good) stickied in the Development section that show how to unlock the bootloader and obtain a custom recovery and root. Then search the custom ROMs on the dev section for more options. Custom ROMs give you many OS tweaks, better performance, and better battery life. Check the thread's OP + recent comments to find out what each ROM has. I would suggest the Viper/Venom ROM or Axiom S. For a custom kernel, try Fusion. There is also AOSP (stock Android) for ICS and Jellybean (CM9 + CM10). Have fun!

I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427 for root. ATM I'm running http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1850917 Great ROM. You could also try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604677 Worked great for a friend.

New to rooting and custom ROMs, few questions...

Hi everyone,
I'm fairly new to customizing my android phone. Have only had a Galaxy SII before, which I flashed to CyanogenMod.
Now I might be interested in flashing my new One S, particularly due to better battery life but also for enhanced possibilities.
I can of course read the guides on how to root & flash (although it seems a lot more complicated than on my Galaxy SII).
What I'm more worried about is, how do I flash back to stock, if that should be necessary later on? Is it very complicated?
Now, I actually like Sense 4.0, HTC keyboard and some other HTC things, so I would like to flash a ROM with Sense. I've looked through the forum and concluded, that either Noble or Trickdroid might be suitable for me. I know that it's not polite to shoot down the one or other ROM, but could some of you tell me the differences between the two? I can't really point them out myself.
Thank you very much!
Best regards
Casper

If you can read, you would know the differences between the 2 roms, and you would also know that THIS IS DEVELOPMENT SECTION, NOT Q&A !!
Wrong Section.
Sorry, how to move?

Harsh.
But yes, it is the wrong section. A mod will probably move this post soon enough.
That said, I just read them over. They look to be mostly the same. Stock with a few tweaks here and there. Noble looked the better of the two to me.
Both have some very vague language though
Fully optimized and tweaked
RAM optimizations
Speed optimizations
Excellent battery life!
Better CPU Performance

You can always just take a backup and flash each one and give them a day or two test run.

How what? All you need is to unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery and then you could flash whatever ROM you want.

No there isn't a pure google based rom yet for the oneS . Your best option for now is the cyanogenmod 10 rom, which look very close to stock google.

To sum up what was mentioned...
No, there is not currently a pure, stock, AOSP rom for the 1S. Cyanogenmod 10 is the closest you can get, as it looks and operates the most like stock, however has many additional features (both visual and performance wise). Here is the link to download CM10 for our device http://get.cm/?device=ville .
Note: CM is releasing "nightlies" which means pretty much everyday an updated rom is released to fix or add features. As of right now, the rom works great, however there are some issues with the camera (video camera does not work properly, although there is a fix).
If you have not flashed a rom to your 1S yet, you will have to do quite a bit of research to get it done. This requires unlocking your bootloader through the HTCdev website, and downloading and installing several files before you can install a new rom. This guide can help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427 .
Hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions you may have.
BTW, yes Q&A would have been the correct section, but don't sweat it. Brandonrz is apparently disturbed in some manner.

Welcome :good: You need to read, read and read some more.
There are some great ROMs out there. If you want stability then stick with a GB-based one for the moment (Reaper for non-Sense and Endymion for Sense). If you want to be a bit more adventurous then try Fallout v5.0, based on the ICS RUU.
TO learn what you are doing - there are plenty of guides out there so make sure you read and understand exactly what you are doing and why before you risk doing anything to your phone.
Gratz on getting yourself the Ds, first if all!
1. First of all, by getting the mobile you just got into friendliest forum in xda!
2. And Secondly, before you start asking questions, there's some comprehensive guide about the specs, guides and tutorials, info, etc stickied in the general section
Edit : ah already see Simon has beat me to the welcoming committee

Thx for kind words of welcome, and just so to let you know i am reading all the beginers guides (not done yet). And at the same time i saw that ICS is officially on this phone now. So i am trying to install it but as it seems i need adb drivers and i have some difficulty finding them on my windows8. I found some for windows 7 but is says unsuported os on win8
UPDATE: grabed my Moms laptop with win7 and started to install this official ICS, but i cant keep doing that every time i need to flash rom (mom would come and turn it off right in middle )
Welcome, see link in my signature for the INDEX thread that should hopefully contain links to all you seek.
I'll echo what is said above in read read and read some more
Enjoy and there is an OFF TOPIC thread for social chat etc
Sywepd form my DsereiS
Hello man)
ROM installed on my device is ICE_DS 5.0 with kernel Tweaked 7.1 (battery life is great!)
ROM on 4.0.4 version need update manualy.
p.s. its older to buy
hey there, welcome to the club! if you want great stability and also ICS experience, and don't want to experiment, you can also flash Ice Cream Saga v1. you get the latest HTC stock rom, rooted, with only the most basic tweaks. you can customise it if you wish with amidabudha's tweaked kernel or leave it as it is.

Hi Kesh,
When you post a link, it gives you the option to change the text that appears 'above' the hyperlink . Well worth using the feature as it shows people exactly what you are linking to, rather than just the actual URL. :thumbup:

hello, the desire s is a beautiful phone that will give you much satisfaction, I think that the best rom is the fallout 5 and ICE DS 5.0. But made ​​a little culture by reading the forum.

what is the best ROM for S3-C2VILLE

im new to this stuff, and last year i managed to brick my phone but luckily they let me replace it.
Since i finally managed to root my phone, can you tell the best custom rom for C2-ville?
i wanted to try cyanogenmod 10.2, but it seems like that is unofficial and the camera doesn't work? please confirm
thanks~ much appreciated
Based on stability either miui or viperc2 sense 5.
They are all good ui wise

cm are good too on villec2, camera works although
Best aosp roms r avalible for ville (s4)
As Flashalot mentioned, these types of threads are not allowed on XDA.
The main reasons for this are;
* It often causes arguments/disputes between users of different ROMs.
*It seems quite disrespectful to ask which is the BEST (I'm sure that's not your intention but that's how it appears).
The best way to find out which ROM is most suitable for you is to try them for yourself. Even though doing so takes more time, it gives you a proper opportunity to find out which ROM features you most prefer and you may also discover a brilliant ROM which wasn't even suggested by others.
For the reasons mentioned above, Thread Closed

I'm a little new to this forum stuff but I'm looking for a kernel and ROM for the one plus one that has a lot of customization to help my battery and performance please help!!

It is hard to say, there are tons of kernels. But if you are new you must be using oxygenos os or cos12.1. So according to your system you can try boeffla oxygen/cos kernel.. But of course you need to unlock your bootloader, flash custom recovery and then flash kernel. Then you must try to tweak your kernel inside some app (boeffla has own noob friendly app). If you search, you will all information you need to succesfully install custom kernel and profit from it.

Just a little advice. Forums are just as much for reading as posting questions. At the top of the General section, you'll see a sticky called:
The "What is the Best or Favorite ROM/Kernel" Roll Up Thread
That's the best place to find people's opinions of the various ROMs available. Also, questions shouldn't get posted in the General section. We have a help / Q&A section for that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/
