Why froyo?? Jump to Gingerbread .. Our Heroe's can run gingerbread thanks to the lovely Dev's and there's two of them ( infact 4 in total ) you can try out in the development section .. check them out
Just Replace Ur Recovery to RA 's one andthen Flash Ur Rom
I am using Elelinux one , quite good

Actually I prefer Froyo, but only because it's alot smoother. I dunno about benchmarks and stuff, but it does run more smooth than any of the Gingerbread roms I've tried.
Though if you can survive with a little bit of stuttering, go TastyGinger (by RaDuG) or Elelinux' Gingerbread. If you want Froyo, I strongly recommend Cyanogen 6.1.
Well, here is the complete guide.

You can try TastyFroyo or TastyGinger by RaduG. Links in dev forum
Ok so at the moment i have froydvillain which is ok but am looking to use cyanogen mod. I installed the file (update-cm-6.1.0-rc1-hero-signed.zip) on my htc hero and it worked perfect except the rom didnt have a market for buying apps? Anyone know why or how to get it?

hmm you'll probably need to flash a gapps package as well...search for it on the cyanogen site

Since the HTC legend recently got Android 2.2 Froyo w/ sense, is there going to be someone to port the rom to the Slide?
I love the functionality of sense but I don't want to have to downgrade to eclair to get it.
So if anybody knows about work being done on that or if someone wants to volunteer, please inform me and anyone else who passes by this thread
Its gonna have the same problems as the 3rd sense rom because we don't have the official 2.2 kernel for mytouch slide! Which means I don't think anyone is going to port it! Check out 3rd sense though its stable enough and is the same sense ui

yep, and actually i think 3rd sense is based on a froyo sense rom for the legend called gratiend so thats your rom right there, at least thats what the credits on the thread say..
I am currently running cyanogen mod 6.1 stable for my slide with clockwork recovery. Do I need to flash/install anything else before flashing this rom?

Nope, all you need to do is a wipe before installing it so you dont get any weird errors
Okay thanks I will flash it, froyo aside, are there any REALLY good stable sense roms out there? Not espresso roms but original HTC sense? flash would be nice

Oh man it works amazingly, I had to disable javascript for the browser to run alright though. Otherwise it is an amazing rom. I ran into some less than polite stuff when I posted in the thread, but I suppose I am a noob. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi. I am keen to learn how to port a Gingerbread ROM which I like to HD2 and would appreciate if someone could advice or recommend me the place to start. The closest I found was in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898215 but someone mentioned that it is already outdated as the advice would only work with older android version.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

I am not sure if this is call making an android Rom ... what I want to know is if I see a good gingerbread rom from the HTC desire for example, how can I "cook" it for hd2?
Yeah I think u mean making,cooking a rom for HD2,not flashing it to HD2 ,right?
I think u need to put alot of time to make a good stable rom.that's y I prefer to download one and just flash it and see how it runs

Yes. I am not referring to flashing it but cooking it for hd2. I have already tried a couple of the custom Gingerbread Rom for hd2 but am not entirely satisfied so I decide to cook one for myself based on the other HTC handsets.
Aha I see,I'm using BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA GINGER 2.3.3 RAM_V5 and so far it's great.
ppl also recommend this:
TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 RC2 v2.6.2 [2.3.3][A2SD][tytung r7]
but if u wanna make ur own rom ,if I'm not wrong u can find a Chief program easy to cook a rom for ur desires ,but I'm not 100 percent sure it's an entire rom or just the interface ,I never tried that, have a look at that.
Been using TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 rom on my device this rom updates very quickly
Just wondering if it's possible to download and install the HTC Sense 3.0 interface/widgets? I have a stock droid rom which is nice but I want the HTC Sense 3 widgets
LOL
We all want new sense! Flash custom rom!
Can someone get me the keyboard from it ?

There are some Sense 3.0 ROMs popping up, don't they have everything you'd be looking for?

Doesn't look like he's rooted. You can't just install Sense 3.0 like you install Launcher Pro.

Nope, but give this one a try: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.moo.android.inputmethod.latin.free
I just rooted my phone today and flashed a rom with sense 3.0. It's pretty awesome, i think i am gonna stick with it for a while.
If you are not rooted, please do give it a try. Just make sure you make the appropriate backups.

Guys please search a bit on the forums. You can find the custom roms in the android development forum
Also yes sense 3 roms are gingerbread.
Now, since they are mostly.experimental, do some research first, get to know some android terms (like nandroid ,clockworkmod, fastboot, adb ,RUU etc) read all of the stickies and then go flashing a rom. What's important when flashing roms/radio/recoveries/bootloaders is to understand what you are doing before doing it. If you do it that way, there are high chances your device won't end as a decorative rock/brick on a bookshelf
Also this is not the correct section

Yes, the guy is correct. Reading up is very important.
You could try one with 3.0 mods, 3.0 lockscreen, weather etc.
The rom that i am on now is InsertCoin, stable build. Very stable, and it's on gingerbread. I highly recommend it.
I'm running Cyanogenmod 7.0.3, but I don't really like it. If one exists, can someone post a link to a custom ROM that is based on gingerbread with an updated HTC Sense on it?
Thanks in advance

There's just one, and its incomplete:

For daily use ones, you will have to look at Froyo Sense ROMs. Listing here:

Yeah as 3xeno said there is only one and it's not complete, I tried it and it was pretty useless as SN everyday rom. Try wildpuzzle (its 2.2) but it's a very good sense rom

Yes you are using a Froyo ROM, Gingerbread has several advantages over Froyo, one being a better keyboard. Also there is a lot of apps that do not run on Froyo but do on Gingerbread.
hi if i have androied on my phone htc hd2 can i just down load a new rom and install it?
You need to be reading around in the HD2 Android forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=743
Yes, all you need to do is download and install another ROM. There are instructions for installation in whatever ROM you choose to install. There are a lot to choose from.
whats the best one?

Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, Neopolitan, Spumoni?
Really, you can't ask that kind of question around here and expect a serious reply. Try Tytung, that was previously recommended to you. Or Hyperdroid, or AmeriCan Android.
Try any or all of them.
hey sorry im new to this dont know the steps to take like i said its an hdc hd2 and i have android on it im happy whit what i have i just wanted to know if the only thing i have to down load is the new rom and install?
