Hi there,
I just rooted my 2.1 Eclair phone to Froyo's 2.2.1. Although I love how its made my phone faster its missing some basic features like the camera not working, (which is useless to me because i am always takin pics on my phone) and not having the ability to import contacts from SIM. Am guessing theres other things that make this Rom uncomplete compaired to the official release. Anyways am not here to complain. My question is, Is there a Eclair 2.1 rom that is customizable just like any other custom Rom out there ? I want the rom to be the same as the official release but just with the ability to download custom software basically...or if anyone can suggest a rom that retains all features like camera and import to sim....
sorry for the long request but once I know then I guess I know what choices I have.....thanks !
All Froyo builds, or most of them that i know of, have a camera working, don't know what is wrong with yours =/
Try Floyo or VillainRom, they surely have camera working.
Now if you want to go back to sense, there's a 2.2 Sense version flying around here (sorry don't know the name), and we even have 2.1's still about. There aren't that many Roms around anymore, so you can easily help yourself around. Just look in this section, and the thread titles should be fairly descriptive, along with the first post in each rom's thread.
Well I did try the latest Froyo, it was the special edition version and the camera didn't work. I then tried the stock version and the camera worked but I still had import to sim problems. There are a lot of Sense and non Sense roms out there, someone made a list and i've had a look at it so will try one of them. Thanks for the reply !
P.S. What in your opinion is the most stable rom out there for 2.1 ?
Floyo, FroydVillain, and elelinux's ROMs all have reputations for being quite stable. There may be others. I'm running Floyo and it's been totally solid and speedy, with rocking battery life. And everything works.
EDIT: Oops, sorry you asked for 2.1. The above ROMs that I listed are all 2.2.1. I've no idea about 2.1, sorry!
VanillaEclair has everything working, search for it on the board..

What is the best/stable ROM or AOSP out right now?
I have used....
- Gumbo 1.5 (plain and boring but of course a great ROM, just not visually)
- Fresh 1.1 (great all around)
This is has been asked time & time again. Please search. And really the best ROM for one person isn't necessarily the best ROM for someone else. Please do the research on each ROM's differences & hell maybe even flash a few; it takes a few minutes & you can always go back if you make a Nandroid backup.

Gumbo was plain and boring? Wow, that's news to me... You must have not customized it then, because its an excellent ROM. Every ROM has its pros and cons, that said; you'll have to test all of them to really get a feel for what you like.
All the 1.5 ROM's are very stable, the AOSP's have some minor problems (BT issues, last I checked), and of course there's the 2.0/2.1 ROM's, which have issues and need work and are still being worked on for that matter.
Again, there is not "perfect" ROM, you need to test for yourself and figure out what you like. As long as you do a Nandroid backup, testing all the ROM's shouldn't be a problem. Good luck.
plus the 2.x ROMs are missing the camera framework (though the DEVs are working on this!)
Anything not based on 1.5 has been found to have bluetooth issues
Plus 1.6 might get you SMS problems.
I m searching the best rom for WildFire.
i l tryet all are on this section ... an nothing like s me.
For exemple : Stock roms not working Angry birds for exemple and you can t overclock you proc ( instaled and last kernel ...)
Others , at least the Froyo versions ... hmmm my opinion Battery drainers ... With Stock Roms ( mine and one i dw ed ) my battery keep my device alive 4-5 days with Froyo roms with a lil luck 2 days.
So , in you opinions guys ... What is the best rom what exist in this moment?
The best rom possible it will be a clean one (my opinion) without tweeter,facebook,youtube,Actions,Meteo,Peep,Sense .... A clean one of Froyo.
It is a personal choice however I use the WildPuzzleROM_2.1 Eclair v1.0.1 because I have not found any bugs with it. It also has HTC sense so I can use friend stream. and with support for apps2sd good for all of my apps. I personally do not like 2.2 Froyo version as of yet as the friend stream application does not function.
However If you tell us what your looking for from your custom wildfire Rom then we might be able to help more
Im a very new xda member and im also searching for a totally stripped clean rom
And i couldnt find nothin
So i thought im gonna create one by myself
im still very new to all this so if u know anybody who could help me with that?
I tried using the kitchen but also that is kind a confusing
If you want a clean rom the best is openfire 2.3 doesn't have nothing installed and is the fastest rom for htc wildfire, but I rather the cyanogenmod rom and it is by far the best rom, but how dnelson94 says it is a personal choice.
Clean Rom
yes I would recommend openfire 2.3 for a clean Rom and good look with making your own
I only got a Wildfire a few days ago, how do I go about installing a rom. Does it void warranty or anything?
Hmmmm

in my opnion ...is irevocable, so you will lose you warranty ... But this phone never crush , until you make something wrong, search, read and make IN THIS ORDER .
+1 for OpenFire 2.3. Made my phone much faster and smoother to work with and extended battery life a little bit.
Can't comment on Cyanogen as I haven't tried it yet.
+1 for OpenFire 2.3 too.
I have started with Openfire 2.3, then tried Cyanogen, but after flashinng patched market and getting FCs after each install, got back to backup of OpenFire. This roms is blazzingly fast and lightweight. Thus, Cyanogen has way more customization options. Maybe i'll try to put it again with some nightly build this weekend.
I will try to help you in installing rom..

Well fastest Sense ROM is SUnAaBh .. See it in my signature..
when I make or receive phone calls the person on the other end says I sound like I am under water or in a tin can lol
anyone else experience this?
if yes how can I fix it?
thanks
Litening Rom sucks. It has too many bugs and glitches. Use 1.5 verison of Litening Rom - it most stable. Or use the other much better roms like CyanogenMod (some features not working for now) or CriskeloRom (everything works fine in this rom).
oh i didnt realise lightening rom was that bad ...
you sure CriskeloRom is better? any particular version you recommend? i take it thats the CriskeloRom is the best of the lot then at the moment?
thanks for your help
Each on their own. While one is saying Litening ROM is bad others will say it's their favorite, so it's pretty useless to ask other than using by yourself. See these threads,

Regards.
Litening ROM is the best of the number of bugs and glitches. I try versions after 1.5 and they were all terribly unstable and unusable.
Try latest CriskeloROM, I dont find any problems in it. And it has normal stock android lockscreen, what is needed for me.
in the faq for the CriskeloRom it states:
when flashing from another ROM you need to
flash back to a HK3 stock rom and ensure you have CF root
where do i find both of these?
please help
thanks
p.s. i found the problem with the sounding like underwater or in a tin room, it happens because the fone is too far from your mouth
Try MIUI, it's the best rom on android IMO in terms of user experience and interface. Most other roms have good function but got undermined by android interface or ugly color scheme.

Hi all,

Please help me chose one or two

Please give me your favorite! I want see the best with sense and without (clean+modes)
Thanks !

May be this is not you are asking for Sense but I recommend NDT ROM.... I'm also newbie and try several ROM. I'm using NDT MIUI ROM right now. I like the way they organize the theme. Just IMO
NDT
I would second the NDT MIUI rom. It is very stable, clean and fast. MIUI also has some nice themes. I would stay away from most of the sense 3.0 threads if you are looking to use wifi hotpsot and the camera as they are not real stable
The Cm7 roms are pretty stable to. Once you get Magldr you can backup and try a few till you find one you like
as stated before. if you want to enjoy your phone in all its ways, stay away from the new sense 3 roms. I was also the Sense guy, untill i tried miui. For me this the way my phone should work. Miui has ton of features its fast, its stable (Systeminfo shows almost 300 hours without reboots) and very versatile. Read the miui bible, cos there are features (usefull ones) there, which most users have never heard about. If you like theming etc. miui is the way to go. Everyday new themes which are applied by a click, no editing of apks needed. I seriously cant imagine go back to another rom, that would be a major downgrade for me.
the rom i use is JW miui from jan-willem3. jan knows what he is doing, so i recommend this highly

Hi,
at the moment I use a LG GT540 Optimus, with a modded Gingerbread ROM based on the latest CyanogenMod. Well, I'm looking for a new phone and I find the HTC Legend very nice.
Even I haven't got it yet (will buy one in the next weeks), I'm asking myself which is the best ROM. I know that the HTC Legend is official supported by the CM7.1. But why are there so may custom MODs with other kernels? Which are most famous ROM projects for the HTC Legend and what are there advantages?
Also I'd like to know which ROM runs most stable?
Thanks
Right now I am with ogo2's RC4b Gingerbread 2.3.3 with HTC Sense 2.1+. Very beautiful ROM, also very fast, but still unstable ( random reboots, etc. ).
But still, I can offer you to go to the Development Area (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=610) and see the amount of available ROMS and read user's reviews
There is no such thing as the best Rom.
Try them and find out.
Every developer puys an effort to give a good Rom.
No point in this
