Best Sense rom?

Hey all,
I recently had my Dream jtagged/rooted (thanks ezterry!) and have been shopping for roms. I am currently running SuperD which is working great, however I really wanted to give a Sense rom a try. Any suggestions? Nothing too experimental, just something fast and stable enough for daily use. Thanks!

Well JC's hero was the fastest and stable but it ran on 1.5. If you want something 2.1-ish then use King's Droid Eris rom or Vega's Legend both are quite equal in speed and stability(imo). Running the Eris port(don't know why) and find myself frustrated on app load times and battery intake. I would consider not using 2.1 first though, I would actually recommend selling the G1 as not much is going on in the dev section OE is still in 2.0 development and nothing has come out of 2.1 yet that is full and stable/fast. Either you don't have to take my word for it . Have fun with your new-ish G1!
Off note-ish: Lotta people getting their G1 un-bricked eh?

Partitioned SDCard. 128MB at least. VegaMan's Legend ROM V0.9.1 is AMAZING! I can give you a version with LWP and LED's if you want?

^That would be good. Is it better than KiNgxKxlick Legend2G1 and DroidEris2G1?

Sense UI on Donut?
Is there a rom that run Sense that is based on Donut?

^Hey you are using Droid2ErisG1, how is the battery life?

Not too bad, but I don't use my phone much durring the day. Heavy use drains the battery bad.

So if I want Sense I am stuck with 2.1 builds? None are all that fast.

no, you can have fast and stable sense on 1.5 roms. none 1.6. and sluggish on 2.1

Wow, thanks for all the tips. Looks like I have some experimenting to do. I'm thinking I'll give Vegaman's Legend a try and if that doesn't work out, wait for a better 2.1 sense build...can't see myself going back to 1.5 just for a few visual trinkets here and there.
@protomanez: mine wasn't exactly bricked...it was the stupid Rogers 911 update...so, about as useful as a brick

Can you PM me a version with LWP and LED's too?

I would also like the LWP version if you do not mind.

anyone want froyo?

I thought that this should get its own thread. In light of recent events, i am now trying to try to port froyo to the dinc. If anyone is interested...well notify me

YES! Most Def.

I already have one person on my waiting list, so i take it that u want to be on my list, too?

Can you add sense to it...? Of course with the option to run it when you want

I agree 100%, nothing against the N1, but I would have gotten one if I liked the UI--I had enough of it on the G1, I'm glad to have a very fast sense and would like to keep it with 2.2!

I for one dislike sense. I prefer the stock vanilla ui, but if i can port sense to froyo than i wont hesitate in doing so

si senior.

vanillia Froyo all the way!!

Of course, sense with an official release of Froyo

I think this is a no brainer, most if not all want froyo
I like sense, but I would take it either way

A de-sensed froyo would be great. Even a de-sensed 2.1 would be nice. I really like the vanilla android

i'm definitely interested in some froyo action on my inc

If not full Froyo, at least its version of the gmail app to replace the stock one on the INC...

Vanilla android is awesome. I miss it after coming from the droid.

I've been waiting for froyo since the day I got this phone! So yes, count me in for wanting it!

I agree, which is why I don't completely understand why it needs it's own thread and why it's in the development section instead of general (since you are pretty much taking a poll).
If you are really going for a 2.2 port, I suggest getting together/talking to already well-known porters/Incredible coders if you aren't already, as a similar task may already be going on and the more the merrier (also faster =p).

+1 It's almost like asking if we want root... I doubt too many are hoping to install 2.0 or 1.6 on the phone.

Froyo allows rotation of the main android screens right? I hate that when my Inc is in my car dock(landscape) the main screens never rotate!
So yes, once I can get rooted, I would love Froyo for my Incredible. (I like sense too!)
TY

Hey rr12106 I would love to have froyo when its ready. Thanks for the effort.

[Q] Evo 2.2 port to Hero possible?

This may have already been discussed but I couldn't find anything in the search. Has anyone done this or is it even possible to do? Are there any other ways to get 2.2 with sense on the Hero?

Not possible from evo. Its build for a different processor. Best bet will be when the legend gets there official release and gets ported over.

Q&A, not development.

so one of my buddies that works at sprint told me august 13th the hero might get an official 2.2 update, i hope he is right

Which is why it goes in the Q&A section.... because it's for Questions .... You'll come to understand that we like things orderly around here... Anyway... as been answered, no not possible...
And 2.2 getting to Hero? Hah... no, not happening

Anything is possible. Officially? Probably not. Besides JIT, I cant see it offering anything worthwhile for me personally. I have a computer for junk requiring flash. My hero, currently, is blazing fast and so responsive that Im left thinking about my next touch...my device is always waiting on me.
I want a cdma legend.

Hero won't get an official 2.2 update. Sprint has said so already. That's not to say they won't release an update on August 13, but it won't be 2.2

who cares where this is supposed to be but it's here now. Anyways what really should be asked is whether someone is gonna port the desire 2.2 official rom to busy watching evo

Knowing Sprint it will be an update back to 1.5.

As far as I know, the closest thing to a fully functional Froyo on the CDMA Hero would be Cyanogenmod 6.
According to this link, the only thing NOT working is the PREVIEW for the camera apps. Otherwise, from what I've read, its an all around stable ROM ready for daily use.. As long as you're not co-dependent on your camera.
I'm thinking of taking the leap today.

Desire froyo is way to big to be ported. The best chances for a full port of froyo is from a legend build which when it comes out in the next month or so I already know someone who is getting ready for the port. Other than that the home made froyo is all that's gonna work for now.

Been using CM6T4 for over a month as daily... camera preview? Just use camera magic for that and for camcorder... well that's the sacrifice I made to have this phone run waaayyy faster and the battery life last waaayy longer than any other ROM out there

Are you serious??? Have you not seen the post for CM6.0.0?
Just so you know, that's Froyo, build FRF91, overclocked to 768mhz. Only thing that doesn't work is flash, b/c it's written for an arm7 processor, not an arm6.

Yes im using FRF91 but I have not seen a reason to upgrade past T4... I am overclocked to 768 and using everything that the new build has.... but again, no reason to upgrade past that.

the new nightly builds have camera preview and camcorder working

[Q] 2.2 sense type roms?

Are there any 2.2 roms with sense or sense like for cdma hero. Want to drop cm6 it keeps freezing on me

are you kidding me??? we have a development thread. did you not look in there. There is not a fully working sense but the wildfire port is the closest.

Sorry kinda new to this bit will look first next time. Thanks

Yea. Check ROM manager and you will find some. Or use theUnlockr. Pretty good stuff on there too.

The only 2.2 sense ROM available is the Wildfire port. But it is EXTREMELY alpha. I heard it's going to be dropped until the Legend gets froyo since porting will be a lot easier.

Does anyone know when the legend will get froyo sense

Now they have the htc gracia(don't know if I spelled that right). It has the smame exact specs as the hero. The the only things not working on this so far is the wifi mms and gps. Everything else is perfect including resolution. This one will be finished quicker than the wildfire. check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818733

Camera is nonfunctional too. I've been running this for a few days now, and it is excellent. Fast, armed to the teeth, and smooth.
Also, Zen said he had mms working last night and will have an update pretty soon.
+1 on using search. Hell, both of them are tagged for froyo sense.

Legend gets 2.2 FroYo - whats this mean for us Hero users?

I saw an article that the Legend has received the 2.2 FroYo. Whats this mean for us Hero users? Im not a dev by any means but I imagine we're so much closer to a full on 2.2, sense and all...again, Im not a dev and really dont know much about cooking, roms that is, but this seems good.

Legend is even more similar haha Legend should be the best port we can get, unless the Gratia is even more simliar.

Yeah but the gratia is more different than the Hero. The legend is basically a remade Hero with a 600mhz processor in it. This will definitely mean something
Also this helps bridge the gap closer to our own fully functioning 2.2w/sense rom. If this rom helps us fix bluetooth, gps, and camera issues, it's all downhill from there, and we will finally have our own 2.2

Go go gadget XDA!

I thought we were running AOSP 2.2 because Sense BOGGS down our Hero's. Maybe the kernel with be worth it
This shows Legend before and after Froyo!!

We might be able to port the new kernel from it, most likely.
The Legend is the phone most common phone with ours if I'm not correct.

The real question is if the Legend can run Froyo. Why doesnt HTC just give it to the damn hero already.

Legend is MSM7227 while we're MSM7600... we'll see when the kernel source is released.

without googling, pretty sure the gsm hero has it... i could be wrong. kinda hope i am. i love the legend. id take a cdma legend and be happy until cdma2 or whatever...a very long time.
please sprint, htc gimme a cdma legend(cause the read xda all the time)

Because Sprint doesn't care about supporting the Hero anymore. They want you to upgrade to a newer phone/lock yourself into another 2 year.
