Edit need sdkcerts if stock rom.
I saw it too and tried it out. I like it. It does speed some things up, messaging was really bugging me and now I can tolerate it. But using DCD's 4.1.2 there hasn't been any drastic improvements, it's already a fast rom. Still good app, noticed my battery lasting longer using the hack too.
Nice to now it helps
I have noticed slight improvements everywhere. but im running 6.5 so it probably had some room for improvements as far as speed.
I've just finished rooting my Hero and I've got noticeable increase in speed, less lag and a generally snappier interface.
Has anyone else noticed anything like this? (It may just be me, but I don't think so!)

Well..I think you might have a point there. I experience the Hero now faster as well...
My phone is rooted - seems same to me.
UHM...very strange. Did you check your CPU speed?
Had the opposite effect for me, once I rooted and started adding swapper etc it all went wrong and slow etc.
Flashed back the stock from here and now all good and speedy.

Since rooting the phone just gives you root-access I very much doupt that it alone would affect the speed of your phone in any direction.

Which method did you use to root your hero?
I used the guide on: h**p://theunlockr.com/2009/08/08/how-to-gain-root-access-on-your-htc-hero
I've been hearing a lot about a ROM called Baked Snack and have tried to do some research on it to no avail. I would like to know more about the latest version Baked Snack 1.3 but am unable to. Has anyone tried this? How is the battery life/performance?
Thanks,
P.S. Hope this thread survives, I know it seems to be a touchy subject on XDA.
Did you think maybe... just MAYBE... you could use the magical tool called GOOGLE?
Google's search Engine is very easy to use folks!

Already been to the website. It gives me facts about what is removed and what is added to the ROM but not any kind of opinion on it, which is what i'm looking for. I know some of you use it. Any useful input would be great.

I'm using it. Works pretty well. Has some issues (what ROM doesn't?). Mostly the Launcher (doesn't matter which launcher) will crash and you have to push the "Force Close" button. It then recovers almost instantly and is fine for awhile again.
Honestly, even though it can run at 1.3GHz and you can surely measure the difference in benchmark, I really don't notice any difference in speed. Maybe some very resource demanding app might be faster on this ROM as compared to the stock ROM, I just didn't notice any lagging on either ROM.
Slingplayer doesn't work just right as often the sound and video isn't synched, but apparently the problem isn't the slower processor speed as the performance is the same at 1.0 and 1.3 GHz.
I must say I'm kinda miffed at Hero (the developer) as he has a website with a forum. You have to donate to gain access to his forum which I have. I cannot get him to respond to my requests to grant access to his forum. I'd consider donating more that the minimum but not until he starts responding and allows me access to his forum.
i used it for a while. its pretty sharp, totally themed with a black/green concept. very fast, snappy ROM. my phone kept freezing when OCed to 1.3 but runs like a champ at 1.2.
i switched to bubs aosp magic 0.4.1 to try out the more stock aosp android feel but kept the baked snack kernel for a while.
i actually then ran some linpack tests and switched to phoenix 1.4.3 to compare and the phoenix just barely edged it out with those tests (also OCed to 1.2) which surprised me!
overall i really liked the baked snack ROM, VVM works fine (doesnt on AOSP ROMs) but it was time to try something else out. i'd give it a shot, i might go back to it at some point it really is a cool ROM.
EDIT: i never had launcher or anything else FC on me, was very stable.
Thanks for the replys, have you noticed anything about battery life? I'm getting currently around 16 hrs with light to moderate use using fluffkernel ver. C.
I'm running a modified version of 1.3 with the mix up kernel. Its the most stable combo I have tried. I got a couple more bus to work out and then I will be releasing my version to the public

I used it for a bit, its cool but oc at 1.3 isn't too stable. Hero_over dud done nice theming too but i switched to heroic epic rom and I like it a bit better visually.

I use 1.3 and nothing force closes on me. Battery life is pretty good for me....I'm on my phone ALL the time and it lasts about 12or so hours. Personally, im stable @ 1.3 and if speed is your thing i get an avg of 10.5s on Linpack with the highest being 10.9xx...all in all is pretty good but everyone has there preferences. One more thing i will say, i don't agree without his forum setup/donation but hero has replied fairly quickly to me

A very interesting project. I like to have the basics of my phone and desktop as "free" as possible and there appears to be roms available to try on our phone.
I haven't seen any comments on this ROM, but I can't imagine nobody tried it.
http://replicant.us/about/
Especially interested in speed, battery life and stability. Anyone tried it? Any other comments?
i love this ROM. tried a few others, but wanted a clean ROM with limited theme-ing. GPS works great. battery seems better. only thing that was missing was Google Talk with video capability, but found that add-on which is flashable through CWM. i feel like i have the perfect phone now. i'm a newbie, so couldn't post this on the development threads, but THANK YOU toadlife!!!
here's the CleanGB ROM thread:

Agreed toad has done a great job with his rom and is so very responsive to feedback and quick to fix any issues. Plus I love his commitment to open source and the gpl. I also like how he is ignoring the tweaks and scripts and focusing on stability.
Sent from my Epic - auto correct mistakes and all.
Been waiting for a rom like this forever. I usually have problems with FCs every custom rom by now. But this one isz a winner~ maybe because of it being so close to stock, but without CIQ.

Clean GB ROM by toadlife was the first GB ROM I installed = no problems whatsoever - easily recommend it to everyone
what they said....
Ditto....I recently rooted and went with CleanGB as my first non-stock ROM. I'm seeing noticeable battery improvements and good quandrant stats. I'm quite pleased.
Thanks for the gtalk video link....I'll be doing the same.
So, who knows how to mod the boot animation on the CleanGB ROM?

DL the Paid version of ROM Toolbox from the Market = it allows you to change it ( plus some other useful stuff it can do )
That Gtalk app screws up the LBE Security app I had installed. Does anybody know if it messes up any other apps.
Wonder why it does that.

Market is having problems recognizing my apps on SD card after I updated this ROM. Anyone else having this problem ? I don't have enough posts to post in the dev section.

X2.... First ROM I have ever installed!
Awesome Rom without a doubt, been running since it came out. Usually Jump Around Trying them all out. Happy Here!!! Keep up the Good Work!!!
I almost started a thread like this last week, because I've used a lot of GB roms, ever since they started leaking. CleanGB is easily the best one out there. Everything about my phone always works now. That's a nice feature to have in a ROM. Unless the Epic is your second phone, or you don't do anything important ever, reliability should always come first. CleanGB is what the Epic should have been from the manufacturer.
Everything that should be there, without anything that shouldn't.
Super reliable - everything works.
Great battery life.
Nice and fast, with no slow downs for me.
A clean, subtle, and improved theme.
What more could you ask for?
Yea.. I just installed this ROM and love it so far..
I'm looking to install JUST the 10lock mod that's compatible with this ROM..
do anyone have a link for it??
all the ones I see are themed.. I don't really want to theme anything.. I just want the mod..
Please help if you can..
Thanks,
This is the first ROM I installed. I resisted b/c I don't want another time sink. But Toadlife is right. CleanGB is for people who just want their phone to work.
I realized today that I LIKE my phone. Before, I was really disapointed with it.
THANK YOU TOADLIFE.
Snowy70... I had the same issue and I had to restore my backup and reflash this ROM. Since then no issues.

How is the Battery compared to Stock Gingerbead? Ive Tried dozens of Roms but ended up back on stock and since ive gone back my battery last twice as long
This ROM is great, I have 2 people in my family with Epic 4G's and they wanted a good stable phone, so I installed this ROM for them and they have had no complaints. Awesome work toadlife!

have it running on the 3 epics in my household and we love this rom. great battery buttery smooth and quick.
Have shied away from custom ROMs due to issues introduced and been on rooted stock but this sounds like it's worth giving a shot. So far so good with everything working.
My favorite rom for sure! Stable, fast, and great battery!
put this on my phone last night and it fixed all of the issues i was having from the other 2 roms i was having and the data was running so much faster.
think this is the only rom i'll be running from here on out
