Ahh, i agree to an extent. For sense, it kinda depends on what you like. Virtuous Unity runs on Sense 3.0. If you ask me, i would tell you to choose the DARKSIDE sense which runs on sense 3.5 and has beats audio. I understand that u are new and everything but i fully suggest that u give a fair share of roms a try. Remember, make a nandroid backup of your faves...expecially of stock, thats very important because its most stable. Here's a quick list of roms that i suggest you try.
STABLE:
MySense (Stock Gingerbread)
MIUI
CM
Virtuous Unity
Virtuous Affinity or the DARKside Sense (both are pretty good and very similar)
Not Stable
Creamed Glacier (I highly recommend this rom)

CyanogenMod 7 (CM7), extremely stable for me, great battery life, highly compatible with apps. Maybe not as glitzy as sense from stock. I don't really remember what stock was like. It lasted all of 3 weeks or less a bit over a year ago.

Don't bother, he didn't even give the rom a chance. He basically flashed it, looked at it and was like 'no me gusta'

I flashed rooted stock & installed Go launcher ex.I will go to Creamed Glacier when it become stable(camera).Thank you all for your help!

ROM
well, I think that it all depends on your preference. But if I had to choose which ones were the most stable, I would say either Virtuous Unity, CM7, or MIUI. CM7 is stock android, with a bunch of tweaks. Virtuous Unity is a straight-up Sense 3.0 rom, without any tweaks. MIUI is kind of it's own thing, you would have to go look it up. I only use MIUI when I get bored of using android ROMs, because MIUI is so different; it's like your not even running Android

[Q] [REQUEST] Android 2.3.5 on G2

Hey all,
I've been dying to have a fantastic essentially stock (real) gingerbread ROM for the G2. While the OTA update is pretty good, it still is missing a few key aspects of what gingerbread should be - blinking LED notifications, the CRT screen turning off effect, a bunch of other stuff. I just recently threw android onto my mother's HD2 Leo, and put this ROM on there. Stock, obviously rooted, with a bunch of awesome features that you can see in the link there. It is FANTASTIC. Probably the best ROM I have ever dealt with.
I guess what I am looking for is a Gingerbread AOSP stock that is currently on the Nexus One - (2.3.5 Gingerbread)
I would love to see a rom identical to this on the G2! Does anyone know of a rom available for the G2 like this?
Or, even better, would someone like to help me figure out how to port this ROM to the g2?
Cheers all
- D
You could try CyanogenMod 7.1-RC1, it has all the features you said you wanted. It does use ADW.launcher, but you can install the stock launcher by following the instructions here.
CM is actually pretty good - my issue is that the look, feel, and operation is nothing like stock gingerbread! I really want something like the stock AOSP Gingerbread Nexus One rom.
EDIT - Hey! One hundred posts!
Cm 7.1 isn't 2.3.5. U need to install the latest nightly. Have a new rom to install every morning is not only exciting, u get new features as they are implemented. What are u talking about CM not being like stock ginger? It IS aosp gingerbread. The true android with zero carrier additions or overlays. You must be confused as to what stock ginger is. Also, get rid of adw the second you install ginger. Adw is a piece of garbage that brings CM WAY down. First thing I always do is search gingerbread launcher in the market and install the real stock ginger launcher. Then your experience will be perfect

Ah - I think that adw launcher is what turned me off of it! I'll give it a go there.
Use the stock launcher, and CM7 is exactly what you want.

This. I've been running a stock GB launcher on CM7 for months now. Check the thread in my sig for it.
I used cyanogen's latest nightly (2.3.5) then xboarder56's converter. Works like a charm!

[Q] 2.2.1 Iced Glacier to Rooted 2.3.4 FootBall ROM Help

It's been a while since I have messed with Root on my phone since putting on Iced Glacier 1.6 for 2.2.1 Android for my MyTouch 4G.
So I need a little help or clarification.
Following this post directions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175536
I updated to the 2.3.4 ROM and for some reason occasionally get the phone showing the "MyTouch" white screen after exiting an app.
Also get "MySense" failed to load or forceclosed when starting up the phone. I think that is what it says...
I re-installed my apps using Titanium Backup, but I think I am missing a few even though I made a full App and System back up the night before doing any of this new ROM rooting. I also did a "Fix Permissions" in ROM Manager.
1: Is Footballs the most basic stable rooted ROM out right now?
Or what is recommended for battery length and smoothness?
2: How does Virtuous Unity compare in stability and speed and battery life compared to other ROMs right now?
I liked Iced Glacier for it's baseness and speed and lack of bloat-ware and I don't change ROMs often. I want one that works and is stable and I want to stick to it.
Not wanting to brick my phone moving to new stuff.
My other big question is:
After installing Footballs Rooted ROM, I still get the 2.3.4 OTA update reminder.
How do I remove that ????
And yes I did a lot of searching before posting this in order to refresh my brain but could not find a precise answer...
So thank you to anyone that can help with these questions and steer me in the right direction.......
I run virtuous unity on one of my my touch 4gas and it is stable and all functions work including tango,,, love the fact there is no bloatware.

It all depends on what you like actually. For a stable rom that you will stick with for awhile that is just like the update to 2.3.4 without the bloat. I would recommend GenerationX v5, its the most up to date rooted/debloated stock version. If you like sense, but not mysense. They Virtuous Unity 1.29 seems to be the favorite stable right now. Keep in mine there are AOSP roms out there like faux's and cm7 that people enjoy as well which are excellent speeds and awesome battery life over stock type roms.

Thanks for the replies so far.
I'm honestly not sure what the difference between Sense and MySense is since I don't keep up with this stuff anymore.
And if I flash one of the ROMs I of course need to make a full wipe and then install. will this erase the homepage icons and need to re-install all my apps again ?
Like i said before i'm not looking for flashy themes, just no issues & good battery life & speedy response when doing things on the phone.
Thanks again for the help....

[Q] Most stable NAND rom for EU version?

Hello,
I'm searching for the most stable and function complete android rom for the EU HD2. I searched on the forum and found some similar threads, but they are old, so maybe recent roms gained much stability.
I would prefer gingerbread and a sense UI, but if it's more stable without sense, no problem
It is more stable (and faster) without sense.
Get NDT MIUI, Typhoon or HyperDroid.
depends on what you define as stable
sense and gingerbread still has issues with the camcorder and glitches but there is a fix that disables hardware acceleration that fixes the glitches
I really root for cm7, everything is just so smooth and well functioning. I'm using launcherpro in addition, as I don't really dig the launcher it comes with. With the latest ROM I haven't had a single process being force stopped!
Sent from my HTC HD2
This is the ROM that i have on my device
Android GBLeo Build
Ist very fast, very stable and with sense
and when you want to have it smoother put a radiorom with 576MB ram hack on your device!
cm7 or ultimate droid 3.3
Cyanogenmod 7!
I will vote Cyanogenmod 7 as well and to be more specific this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013852
Gingerbeard 2.3.5
Stable
Fast
Low battery consume (about 5-7mA)
and with some good tweaks!
Give it a try
it depends on what kind of rom you want
I for one and used many and satisfied me most is iMilk's Vision Sense v5.0
I'm testing the rom Android ROM GBLeoR3 2.3.3SENSE2.1 HD2
and so far I'm very happy you only have a small bug and Video Camcoder not 100%
Hyperdroid CM7 - best rom for EU HD2.
Fast, smooth, light and NO LAGS.
All recent sense builds lag for EU HD2
Have some one stable, fast and energy save ROM on Android 2.3.x with SENSE 3
I'm using a EU mobile and I have to say these two are the best for Simplicity, fast, Stable, and Clean ROM (my personal experience)

I experiment with alot of the ROMs especially trying out the new Sense 3.5 ones but I always keep a copy of NexusHD2 on my memory card as I can pretty much guarantee eventually I'll come across something that doesn't work properly and end up reverting back to it. Probably the most stable ROM out there and everything works.
Using RAfdroid with sense...works perfect!!a part for the camcorder....
Yes, its good Rom. But I need Rom with HTC Sense 3...

I'm using Typhoon CM7 and LauncherPro and have the launcher force closed sometimes - especially when I switch from an active app back to the homescreen. Otherwise, it works fine.

RCMix3D- Capy-Sense 3.5-Android 2.3.5
DARKSIDE SENSE 3.5-TDJ-Sense 3.5-Android 2.3.5
Virtuous Unity-Unity team-Sense 3.0-Android 2.3.4

My favorite right now is Absolution, give it a try. fast, stable, good battery and nice lookin.
+1 for Virtuous Unity
I haven't found a rom I didn't like
Virtuous Unity 2.39
But here's what you do:
1. Ensure you have the latest Gingerbread radio
2. Do a full wipe and install Virtuous Unity
2. Download Root Explorer
3. Download GO Launcher EX
4. Set Go Launcher as the default launcher
5. Using Root Explorer, remove all Sense, widgets, themes, and other bloat you don't need from /data/app AND /system/app.
You will now have the fastest, and most stable ROM available.

Look in the development section, there are plenty of roms that work perfectly right after you flash them.
My favorite is mikrunny v1.01 its like capy's rcmix but a few more tweaked stable fast and great battery life odex version
It all depends what you perfer out of a rom you want all the stock stuff with a little tweaks go with sense roms. You want customize your theme real crazy and great smooth performance then go with roms like miui or cm7 type roms.

I would suggest sticking with Sense 3.5 and all of the above I enjoyed a great deal. Of those though I have used Darkside Sense the most. I love everything cooked by thederekjay and I mean love! I can't say enough about how fantastic his roms are. As of right now though, I am using COREDROID and I would highly recommend it. It is the smoothest, fastest, and most stable of the Sense 3.5 roms I have experienced. One caveat is that it is HEAVILY themed. I enjoy the theme but I could see it being a deal breaker for some.
Does it matter if you flash the Radio before or after flashing a third party rom?
BTW, is this the latest radio for MyTouch 4G
From the 2.32.531.1 RUU: 12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19

2. If Cyanogenmod which one do you recommend stable or nightly?
3. Which Kernel should i use after rooting my phone that works correctly and has no problems?
Please share with me some of your thoughts and opinions.

Myn's Warm series have always been very smooth and stable for me. I'm not going to give you a link, you can find it yourself in the Dev section.
Energy 2/6/12 rom is awesome... nice and smooth pretty much bug free. can be a bit hefty on the internal storage, but with dt a2sd and dalvik on sd card its not bad.

I second this. Wife wanted an iPhone, I wasn't having that. She got an Evo and complained since day one....until this build of MIUI. She is overjoyed now. I've flashed a lot of stuff on mine and am very happy with the look and feel. Much better than any Sense based ROM I have tried by far and doesn't look like any other Android build without heavy customization. Just runs nicely out out of the box.
Doesn't have 4g but I never turned it on anyway.
