It's very personal. Trial and error. Work out what you like. Try viper, a non-sense Rom and sense 5. They should give you a good idea of what you like.

Favorite Rom threads are frowned upon. Hopefully there aren't other threads like this. Try the different roms and see what you like rather than asking.

But yeah seriously just test out the ones you're interested in and compare them and see what you like best. I flashed maybe 4 different roms before i stuck with one and just recently went over to sense 5.

These are the same kind of questions as the "Whats your favorite case?" or... "Whos your favorite carrier?"... those don't get closed so I don't see why these have to be closed? Some people don't have time to flash multiple ROM's, and to be honest you can't really decide if it's right for you in one day... These kind of threads help narrow down the right ROM for you, chances are if other people like it, you will too.... just look at how many people use CyanogenMod.
But anyways back on topic, I would suggest using Cyanogenmod. Overall it is the fastest ROM I have found. Most people like fast, so if that's your thing go with Cyanogenmod. They are currently working on 4.3 Android, they have a version out already but SMS/MSM isn't working so I suggest to wait it out until they fix the bugs.
Viper ROM is great for customizations, however it won't be as fast as Cyanogenmod, at least in my experience it won't..
That's all I've got, I've narrowed it down to 2 ROM's for you. However if you feel daring and want to try out some more ROM's I suggest you look at the post counts of the ROM's thread and usually if they have more people posting in it it usually means it's a better ROM and has an active developer fixing all the bugs and what not.
Thanks and enjoy!
Okay, let's do some thinking here.
Hypothetically, if ALMOST everyone were to suggest the same ROM, what benefit would that bring for the other devs working on the ROM they're providing? What would happen if we all said leave your phone stock? Would you? It works, it's reliable, there are no bugs, and no problems for you to complain about.
So let's all try to play along with that idea for just a bit.
Leave your phone stock. Unrooted. Why? No problems or bugs for anyone because it's stable. :good:

It means their likings aren't the same as the majority of other people, or they need to work harder to make their ROM better.

It's considered to be very disrespectful to devs to say one ROM is better than another. And really, no ROM is better than another ROM. ROMs suit different people for different reasons, therefore nobody can definitively say ROM a is better than ROM b. Just flash a few and find out for yourself, it's REALLY simple.

Those don't get closed because its completely different. Products like cases/phones and carrier services are paid for. So I can easily see why these are allowed. Voice your opinion on what you paid for, and furthermore, att doesn't care what we say here. They get their money, they aren't discouraged if I say I hate their service.
Roms are different. A developer doesn't sit down and say "let me earn a pay check by building a new ROM". In fact, they do it in spare time, after their real job/friends and family. To say someone's volunteer work is bad and that you don't like it, and that a certain ROM is better is preposterous. Saying things like "well A is good for X, but I like to do Y, so I chose B" is a perfectly logical statement. Everything regarding a ROM is opinion based. They are all rock solid and do different things. What you choose depends on what you need the ROM to do for you.
To say a ROM is the best (is what these threads turn into) is plain stupid. Everyone has their own opinion, and should share it within reason.
So these Devs that do this in their free time certainly don't want to hear why a ROM is better than theirs, especially since nobody has an obligation to do this for us.
That's why these threads get closed.

It really depends.. There's only 3 types. Either you're a Sense, AOSP, or MIUI guy.

AOSP: Royal Ginger IMO
MIUI: SpeedDemon

OP there is no such thing as that depends on user to user. Some like MIUI, Sense, other like mainline AOSP. If you want stable rom most of us use CM7(AOSP2.3.4) as its always up to date.

You don't even have to read a lot of posts, you read maybe one or two pages at the most and you'll find out, for instance absolution(the only Rom I use on my inspire) is extremely stable for me and is perfect for my needs but it may not be the same for you it may not work for you, you may prefer sense, so really its all personal preference. Threads like these get closed all the time because they're unnecessary since most of the roms in this forumare plenty stable except the ones that say they are betas and have things that don't work.

Guy this question has been asked a thousand times with a thousand different answers. There is no top or stable ROM, they are ALL GREAT. Only what you feel best using and your needs of it. Try a few on for size and see what works for you and feels best for you. Coredroid for a stock look or absolution 3.7 for a no sense. But then these are my favorites but watch how many more responses you get till you get closed.

Look, I use my phone as a work phone (so I need an amount of stability), and I find aospx AR28 stable enough for a daily (that said, AR26 saw fewer freezes and reboots, food for though).
However, if you need camcorder, aospx (any ICS?) isn't for you.

Well lets start with congrats man on getting an Inspire. The Inspire community is awesome and there is a constant flow of great work being done by the amazing devs here. First, please search. I don't mean to come off as a jerk but it is part of the rules you agreed to when you signed up and literally if you searched "best rom" or "stable rom" you would most likely see what we have all been telling you and that is: There is no best stable ROM. Every ROM has its issues. What one person swears by another person won't. Only you know what you're willing to live with and live without. Try some ROMs out and see what works best. Here are my recommendations but they are by no means an all inclusive list of "best ROMs", just my personal preference.
Sense 3.5 = Bindroid
Basically stock = Cleardroid
AOSP/CM = Absolution
ICS = Redemption or Melchizedek
if i could stay on one rom long enough to find out if it's stable or not would be a great thing. stupid ROM A.D.D.

Don't forget cyanogen7.2 (newest release) for a wide variaty of customization.
Like others said before there are tons of roms in the developer section of the xda/inspire4g.
Welcome to the freedom of android. The best thing about rooting is the personalization. You can find just about any theme, os, app, or widget you can imagine.
Start with the ace hack kit, read the effin manual (that's what its called) do some reading on the available roms, download from the site or open up rom manager (if available) flash from rom manager.
Which ever rom you choose remember read the first post on the dev thread back and forth up and down. Once you do that...... read it again. All the important info you need for that rom is in the first post.
If you have questions on terms or what something is. Just Google said something followed by xda htc inspire 4g and you should find exactly what your looking for.
Good luck and welcome to the forum.

As stated none can tell you what rom will work best or be the most stable on your device and your set up. Even stock roms have bugs. It is just something you live with or dig in and try to fix when you own a smart phone.
Just pay attention to the OP of each thread and so the proper research and you will be fine.

I know that making a rom takes a very long time but our device seems to only have 5-10 (maybe more) good/stable roms. every one else seems to be getting a lot more love. is it cause we have a miSense device?
Just because we don't have 30 CM9 roms with each a different name doesn't mean we don't have roms. It means we respect each others work and choose not to duplicate it and call it our own.

This. I honestly don't think we're lacking in types of rom that we have.
I mean, we have stock-tweaked, aosp, sense roms, CM roms, different versions of MIUI's. Hell, we even have JB in the making!
So, yes, they're still alive and making roms.
Well, the reason I don't complain is because I can't dev. There's just no time for it. Yeah I get jealous of other forums from time to time, but the alternative is learning how to make my own rom.
Better not to bite the hand that feeds you.
I personally think we have a group of great devs for this device who are very willing to share each others' work to benefit the community at large I am curious as to what TBalden has going right now cuz he's been awfully quiet lately.

I dont say much around here...but man oh man, i have to this time. First of all, a huge thanks to all the devs. I'd go by name but someone deserving would be left out...we may be short on kangs but we've got great roms. I'll take quality over quantity.
I had an ace previously. Dozens and dozens of roms, but they've just repeated themselves. There's only a handful of systems to be ported anyways.
Kernel development on this phone has been off the chains. Anything running on tbalden and kornyone's work has been smooth and slick.
Frankly, I knew when I got the phone that since sliders are kind of niche the scene would be smaller. Used the demo phone in the store to verify that cm was in a complete state. Which it most definitely is. Feeling pretty confidant that cm10/jb will reach completion.
Anyways, I'm probably gonna cry when this phone dies. Maybe you can sell me yours for a spare. Cuz if I ever have to turn mine in on insurance they'll probably try to hand me a different model.

It isn't anger you detect as much as it is frustration K7. What is plainly obvious to developers & other coders isn't so much to the rest of us just looking at the threads & available ROMs. I HAVE noticed though because of helping a friend out with an EVO 4G that many of the ROMs are little more than a redistributed but newly themed, customized & slightly altered versions of another popular ROM. Do that several times and you have 5 ROMs with little differences to the core program multiplied across 5 or 6 basic initial formats & you have plenty....kinda. If that was what was happening to the MT4Gs then we'd have 40+ ROMs 'listed' but few differences other than the new name.
This isn't meant to disparage any developers in other forums for other devices and it may very well be an isolated case but it is something I noticed.
Just my nickel's worth.....

I'm getting a One X for my girlfriend either tonight or tomorrow. She's very technically incapable, she just wanted something better than that Lumia 900 she's had for a while and I found this One X on the cheap lol. Basically I'm gonna root, unlock, and flash a ROM on day 1 cause I've had HTC devices before and the battery and stock performance is usually....meh, to put it nicely. So I'd rather avoid that headache and just cut the problem straight at the beginning.
I'm looking through the development section and I've narrowed it down to 3. Maximus, Android Revolution, and ORDroid. Now the key things I'm looking for here are:
1) Ease of use
2) Stability
3) Battery life
4) Preferably OTA updates cause it's so easy even a girlfriend can do it.
5) Preferably no compromises on camera, wifi, bt, or anything.
I know it seems like I'm asking a lot, but really I just want to know what's my best option here and since I don't have a One X myself to test these ROMs out there's nobody better to ask than you guys. Thanks a lot for the feedback!

Likes stock but can mod, try viper, it has everything. Likes the look and feel of jellybean? I say flash dirty rom. Want best of both? MergeX is sense themed out like aosp.
We have any and everything you want

Oh, dear. At least you asked. In order, this is what you get:
1. Brick
2. Brick
3. Brick
All three of those are for the international One X. Please go to the development section in this forum and start over.
Edit: Whoops. That's what I get for letting my reply dialog sit for 10 minutes.

Thanks, so I'm assuming without checking it out that Cleanrom is ICS based? I'd like something JB based so I can steal her phone every once in a while to check out Google Now lol (Optimus G has practically zero development going on right now lol)
And yes I realize that I listed a bunch of international ROMs, I accidentally posted this thread over there not knowing there was an AT&T One X forum so I just copy and pasted without looking in the development section over here. Thanks for the feedback though guys.

CleanROM is based off one of the most recent ICS and Sense 4.1 bases. There are no Sense Jelly Bean roms just yet, except only very alpha port from the international phone.
If you want JB, you need CM10.

Stick to ROMs in the AT&T One X specific section of the forum, and you'll be safe: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1538
Don't flash any ROMs from the forum that is labelled simply "HTC One X" as that versions has completely different hardware internally, and any ROMs from their will either not work, and/or will brick your phone.
There is no best ROM. Everyone has different preferences and expectations. To recommend one over another is an insult to our devs that work so hard to give us free software, as saying one is not 'the best' is implying it somehow inferior, when it is not.
I know about the International One X, like I said earlier that was my fault for looking through the wrong forum. As far as asking for the best ROM I was asking what's the best one for my needs that I listed. I'm not trying to make somebody's work seem like it's "less" than someone else's but obviously one ROM is gonna fit me better than another. And if I tell everybody what I'm looking for and ask for help on which would suit my needs then that shouldn't be misconstrued as insulting other developers.

All due respect, those are the same rationalizations that are often given when someone starts a "best ROM" thread.
You're parameters aren't anything special. Its not like people are walking around requesting ROMs that get bad battery, or are hard to use.
Its not that hard to look through the features of the ROMs, see which ones fit your need, and try out a couple.
"Best ROM" threads are simply not allowed here (whatever you think your rationale may be), and mods will close this thread soon.
You'd be surprised how impossible it is to actually try out a ROM before you get the phone. And I wasn't trying to flame a best ROM thread, if you just read through the posts you'd realize I was looking for a stock ROM that wouldn't be overwhelming for someone completely unfamiliar with this sort of stuff. I said options and tweaks weren't important and stability definitely was. Sounds a little less generic than you're making it out to be.
Could I have looked through the development section myself? Absolutely. Was it lazy and more convenient for me to do this? Of course it was. Is it undermining the entire concept of a Q&A section when you say which questions can and can't be asked? A little. Especially when the whole point of this was that I don't have the phone myself so I HAVE to ask people what their opinions are.

Obviously, regardless of whether you start a thread asking about ROMs, or research them yourself, its all purely academic until you actually get the device and start flashing ROMs. If you want to do some preparation before you receive your phone, your time is probably better spent reading about how to unlock the bootloader and root the phone, as the steps are not completely obvious or straightforward.
I'm not trying to beat on you, seriously. But if every person new to this phone made a thread asking what ROM is best "for him" arguing that their needs were somehow unique and special (and therefore deserved their own thread), the Q&A forum would quickly be rendered useless by a flood of hundreds of such threads.

And, they are against xda rules. Period.
Whether we like it or not, that's the decision that the forum operators made, and the mods have asked us to abide by.
