Hi guys ,
I am a proud owner of HTC explorer for past 7 months and i have been trying different roms because I like trying out new stuff and upgrade my little wonder into a high-fi gadget.So I came to XDA and I was happy to found out a whole forum for HTC explorer.I tried almost all the roms from jaggyrom to the latest builds of CM9 and CM10,out of which most of them impressed me a lot.My 2 most favourites are (till now):
1.Sense based roms:
a)Jaggyrom 3.2.1 with charlie tweaks
b)nextgen 1.4(not that much bcoz green is everywhere)
2.Non-sense based roms:
a)Xperia ICS build #13 with little modifications from my side(new update)
b)LG UI based ROM v2(2-3 things need to be changed like overlocking to 800 MHz,parandroid is too weird,etc.)
c)CM9.1 Build#8(by lirokoa) (no overlocking and CPU and GPU tweaks for better HD games performance)
So guys after all this work i would like to say that some people like sakindia123,lirokoa,adityalahiri13,jaggyjags and many more are trying to make a difference and I really appreciate them for doing it and just like any other lover of custom roms,I would like to take the oppurtunity from all the users to thank them and motivate them to create better mods and roms for not only our explorer but many more......If anybody else has to comment about the best roms for htc explorer they have used,they are most welcome....MAY GOD BLESSS U GUYS

but i think this is a MIUI with ics interface...not pure ics...isn'it?
Galnet MIUI ICS is our experimental builds for the Ice Cream Sandwich framework being introduced into MIUI. These builds don’t look any different, however they do come with some of the ICS benefits such as power management and ram management.

So i think it is ICS, but i don't know for sure.
hmmm... I dont know what is inside, but it looks still like MIUI
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhmdrdWJ6gQ
It has a mixed framework. Ram and cpu management are improved. Will post a benchmark later. Galaxy S2 scored a whooping 5000+ score in quadrant.

Hello all,
I am planning to again install a custom Rom. Among Cyanogen mod 9.1 and MIUI which you find best.
Any other Rom which you would like to suggest then please do.
Hoping to hear from you all soon.

Build #8 is the latest, and most stable, version. But some people have reported poor wifi signals.
It's a matter of personal opinion. If you just want a phone that's fast and smooth, use CM9.1. If you want your device to be look good then use one of the MIUI builds. They're based on older builds of CM9 though, so aren't as efficient.
But it's your choice. CM9.1 or MIUI? Try them both and stick with your favourite

hi,
recently got a htc explorer, smartphones and always had them and it changed the roms but usually tend to be of top phones.
I wanted to ask if the roms that are available here are fast as the original rom or lose a bit of performance?
I am I'm inclined to try the rom cm9.1 build8 from what I've read here in the forum
I was also very skeptical about the performance. But I'm on CM9 bulid#8 almost a week and it is very smooth. I would even say a little bit better than the stock rom, but it could just be me. The only lag I recognize is when opening the app drawer for the first time. It's my first custom rom and I don't know why I have waited so long =)

You lose warranty as soon as you do the HTCdev bootloader unlock.
But what reblock bootloader?

Bootloader unlock is need to root the htc so i can get costum roms or is just so to unlock the htc to vodafone, tmn, etc... ?
...but I have few problem to chose one!!!
Actually I have an old Rom named Pixel ROM 1.72. Do you remember it?
I like this rom because is simple and fast and I'm looking for something like it.
I really like to try a Rom based on Jelly Bean but I fear to severely slow down my terminal,
and I have to use it also for my job...
If anyone have a suggestion...

You should really try the incredible JellyShot v0.5.2. It's JB 4.2.1, the most recent android ever. Google will not officialy release it for Nexus S, but this version is absolutely incredible! No kidding.
Slimbean is ok, but gets buggy along the way.
Bugless Beast is good, but a little outdated
Cyanogen 10 was not good for my battery and I thought it had too many fireworks, I like simple stuff.
Download JellyShot.
Just follow the instructions. I'm using Marmite v 1.7.5 (plain not the CM)
I use the one at column C5, is working great, no lag, no nothing just incredibleness!!
Look in search, it's my first post, so I can't post urls yet...
Cheers from sunny Brasil!
sorry for late response..
the name version v3.1 it's not related to android version is still jb 4.1.2
but as former stated I've tried jellyshot v0.3 and 0.5 now... WOW amazing fast!!!
not so minimal as slim ones but my Nexus seem to be supercharged now..(not related to zeppelinrox scripts!!)

Hi. I'n not a dev or anything and I am really happy about the large choice of ROMs for our little explorer
I personally like iOS, even though some Android users hate it. The only rom which was based on something similar to iOS was Joyos which was based on CM7 which has major bugs such as camera.. Is it possible to create a rom based on iOS 6 using CM9.1 or CM10 as a base?
Something similar to this maybe: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1834375
I know there are launchers and stuff but I'd like to get the closest iOS experience possible on an android.
I'm not that much of an expert here so calling me a noob won't do any good.
Hope I get a positive response
I will try but not now afterwards...

Can you provide a ios like Rom based on ics? I can try porting it.. Since we already got joyos based on cm 7 and in which camera doesn't work there's no use porting it :s

I Rooted my pico 2 days ago, yesterday i put jaggyrom 4 and now im starting to get a general ideia on thing. Since CyanogenMod is the most recent version of android why are there so many builds 7 9 10 what does that mean and witch is the most stable/relaiable less buggy?
Am I going over my head and should just go with my current ROM or just go for a icecreamsandwich one?
Thx in advance
Brigas
Builds are like this..... Build 1 is the first one, and so on, normally latest builds are with less bugs,as simple as that. About what to flash..... it's up to you, check out at least last 4 pages of whichever rom you choose and you'll get what's wrong with it(if there is something) and that's it.
If you are asking about between cm9(there are 11builds of it) and cm 10, that's different. Cm9 is ics, and cm10 is jb, and so on.

Well that's a good thing you can choose something from an index thread(it's in dev section),also you can check this out

Actually the ROMs are ported from sources by devs. Mostly they are
not official. That's because the CyanogenMod (please dont ask me what is that) team doesn't likes to spend time on phones like HTC Explorer. I don't know why so better not asking me. So as they are unofficial, they are not prefect and stable. They've got bugs and new builds are made to remove those bugs and make all the thing work. CM9(ICS) Build #11 and CM10(JB) Beta #3 are fine for you. Almost no bugs. Find the links yourself I'm too lazy to do that.
Please hit 'Thanks' for this detailed info.
