I really appreciate all the developers for there hard work. I just dont understand why they make back to back hero roms, slightly better then the other, still with no bluetooth. They all appear to be fast. I'm not posting this to discuss the speed of one hero rom vs another, but seriously. Let get that bluetooth working!
go check out towards the last few pages of the bluetooth in hero thread the shafty023 (can't recall exact digits) started, bluetooth works in the mytouch, but not in the dream, despite them having almost similar hardware, there is a slight difference in the bluetooth (or something) chip that is causing it not to work on the dream but in the mytouch. that thread explains it a lot better than i can.
its not that people don't want to get it working, its just very hard and doesn't actually pay as opposed to other things that do.
I've gone back to trusty Donuts, currently WG Build Y2.6 - btw, great work guys! - but I'm still looking for my HERO. Such a great accomplishment with all development attempts, monkeying around to achieve variety of flavors.
But no sound via bluetooth is a deal breaker for me. I have yet to find ONE hero that would give mytouch the sound via bluetooth.
Hi, I am using CM4.0.4 and I am attracted by the usability of Hero so I would like to have a try of Hero Roms.
However, I knew that Hero Roms' bluetooth is broken before.
Is it working now?
Which one is better for G1?
No they dont
and i recommend ether
Jacxhero ski or
MLIGN hero
if bluetooth worked the OP of every hero post would have it written in amazingly large flashing letters.
Now that the whole Cyanogen deal happened I've been having a hard time finding the perfect donut release to follow. Any suggestions? Also what would you guys say to be the most stable Hero to be used day to day at this current time?
This is in the wrong section, but I use KingxKxKlick 1.9
Wrong section....
Yes, this definitely in the wrong section, check out Q&A instead. Soon a mod will fix this, but keep it up, and you'll be temp banned.
That said, CyanMod is still an excellent, stable, fast Donut build. If you're looking to try Hero, I have used about a dozen, and Kingklick's is easily the best, and since about 1.7 has been completely stable--no swap partition or cpu overclocking needed, and it's still so fast it's just disgusting.
Cyanogen is still actively developing his ROM. I would suggest following him on twitter.. @cyanogen
I would suggest that you just keep using Cyanogen. If you have too much trouble installing, just install this version. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569825
In theory, once installed, you can just install Cyan's official updates when he releases them.
With Hero ROMs, I found that in EVERY Hero release people claim its THE best Hero ROM available, so you gonna have to do some flashing to find out for yourself.
Now I use Hero3G UNI, others swear by Evil Hero 3.0 and MLIGN-HeroV2.5.5. These 3 ROM will need different and most likely customized user.conf settings. For Hero3G I found 196 swap w/100 swappiness and CC OFF works best. For Evil Hero you also need 196 swap partition.

There are some that are good, but some are the best. It all depends on how it runs on your device and how you config the user.conf.
Just remember, even with Donut, Hero ROMs have a lot of bells and whistles, but still lack core function like BT or Google Voice Support.
Cyan is my recommendation, and cyan is hinting at a very very soon update.
If you want to play with a new toy, try Motoblur, just be aware it lacks wifi.
it all depends on you. right now we have 3 working roms not including the pulse rom.
original android by cyanogen, [everything works]
hero by about 8 people (htcs own google ui), [bluetooth doesnt work, also im noticing flash doesnt either.]
blur [stable but slow, but good for social networks, no wifi]
just download the 3 different roms and test em out, dont just test one hero rom tho test em all and find what you like. but please do post in the q&a.

Google Voice works fine for me on KingKlick's 1.9...
Also, some other Hero threads claim to have bluetooth working, but I have tried them and keep going back to KingKlick because they are all too slow.
I also wouldn't recommend MotoBLUR yet, unless you are very experienced and want to help the devs. It's still waaay experimental, way more than just wifi doesn't work.
But all the Hero/Blur/experimental stuff aside, if you just want a good, stable, feature-rich, fast ROM, stick with Cyanogen. Hate to be so blunt, but he is simply the best.

Oh Nice! You can use it with the normal dialer? Not through contacts?
i've been using enomther's donut rom. seems to be working very nicely. haven't used cyan's 'newest' rom because he kept saying 4.2 was around the corner and I kept waiting. Last week also said he had some updates for the .999 build and was going to add another 9, but never released it. Also enom's rom has a hero theme addon for his latest release. Whereas nabzilla is also waiting on cyan's 4.2 to release an updated theme for that.

Dude why u being an ass u r not a moder to treat some1 with perm ban, I think they can deal with this with out.
But yea Cyans roms r good but its been running kinda slow for me so I started flashing
hero roms I tried a few and so far Mlign's worked the best for me. its something u have to find out for urself
I don't understand why many Developers work on the 2.1 roms when the g1 is no match to the processes of those phones who actually run on them? I know they want the biggest and baddest thing out their on their g1 but it doesn't even have a match towards the droid or the legend. Why don't devs perfect something that is closer to the Ram and rom of the g1? Hero isnt that far off but it seems that it lost interest when these slower and unstable roms came out.
*I'm not trying to start a flame war but I just don't understand the concept of the reason behind. Nor Am I a dev to talk about what they can/can't do in their own free times. I love all of the work that the DEVs have done towards the community so don't take that against me*

It's the demand and it has been like this since Cupcake.
When we all had RC33 we all were dying for Cupcake.
Haykuro came around with an HTC version of it and people loved it!
Then it got old when Donut started to come around and devs were working on that.
Now we have Donut and Eclair is just around the corner. Guess what? Same thing.
There are dozens of Donut roms out there. Why would we want another? The most popular ones would be Cyanogen and SuperD.
Sure there are several Eclair roms but hardly any of them is as stable as our Donut roms. That's why.
This donut is getting stale and moldy, we're baking a batch of eclairs and your wondering why our mouths are watering?
Hey guys I understand all the hype right now surrounds CM7 and all the ports for that coming out.
However that being said I used to own an HTC Aria and I used to love Cyanogen and all of his work.
I was wondering if anyone has any idea if this is:
a. Works
b. Is still being developed
i. A newer build out
c. If youve used it.
Here are the two links all feedback and comments are really appreciated:

designgears never did contribute to CM6.1 and glitterballs' kernel was just a modification of codeworkx's/coolya's 6.1 kernel.
6.1 is dead now in favor of 7, if you were to have any interest in trying to work on 6.1, there is some of their original work located here: https://github.com/cmsgs
though it's mostly broken and unoptimized.
