i have been running cyanogens roms since i rooted my g1. there are so many roms out there and i would like to try some different ones but i have no idea where to start. im into features and looks. any recommendations? TY
1st choice should be the version: eclair or donut?
on donut i would recommend CSDI as it was the best looking rom and its fast to. dwang worked even better for me but there is no eyecandy
atm i use cyanogen 5. its ok but i didnt tried another eclair rom yet so i have no comparison
im on eclair right now with CM5.0.7 test 3
Best of both worlds:
Super E for Eclair
and
Super D for Donut
Theme options for both those Roms are very high.
Try either one and you will recognize this fact.

Hi,
last time i tested the MLIGN Hero Rom...
I really like the look of the whole rom like noothers!
Now i search a faster and very stable rom of the hero look.
The CyanogenMod hasn't such a good theme....
The best is when the Rom with hero look have the newest features of Android 2.1, but that isn't a must, because with 1.5 i haven't any reduction compare to newer android roms or???

You should try try Jac's hero rom its pretty fast.
Is it regulary updated???
Is it the best hero rom???
Have i any disadvantages because android 1.5??? (compare to CM 1.6 or 2.1...)???

Maybe certain apps wont show up but Jac's hero hasnt been updated in like 4 months but its faster than the newer 1.5 heros like MLIGN or sensehero and the others.But King's 2.1 hero is good cause i can open the KB on home and its 2.1 so new apps show in market.
So kings hero is android 2.1 with new features etc and has hero look???
Is it also fast and stable???
Do bluetooth work???
Kings hero the best???

Bluetooth will never work on hero for 32B hardware but it works fine for 32A magic users.There are only 2 2.1 heros out, Espresso & Eclair hero. Depends on what you mean fast, for basic task its fine but not for everyday use. Espresso has been my daily rom and backup but its fine for me.
I have a HTC Dream, so never Bluetooth?
Where do i find espresso or eclair hero???
Is there a good CyanogenMod normal hero theme for CM, because i find only special mix of hero themes, like community hero mix. But i want normal hero theme...
They are all in the dev section, just page through it or search. Do a nandroid backup first and try them out yourself.
i want to know what is a good clean rom to use on my mytouch android 1.6 with out messing it up thanks?
I think you would like Dwang (the one I use now). Pretty fast and really really stable. You don't need to make partitions and care about other stuff.
But, if you like to have some Eclair stuff then, SuperD is a good choice too.

Concerning your post...wrong section, buddy. But it's okay, now you've learned. But go to these, and you should find some good ones. I personally recommend Cyanogen 4.2.14.1 on the g1 android development page(first link). Happy flashing!

Perfect ROM
The best rom that I have ever used, and I have used about 20 roms, is dwang 1.17.1. It is stock donut with some enhancements. Its fast as hell and it will stay fast. Super D is along the same lines as with different enhancements. Good look
Okay, Hi! 1st! (am new)
I did some research over at xda and which one of these will pay nice with my new G1?
SuperD | Chromatic | KiNgxKxlicK | Or Cyanogen
I prefer eye candy and apps... am a student. And a designer. What dya think?
SuperD is 1.6 ROM. SuperE is 2.1 ROM.
KingKlick made of lots of ROMs, I don't know to which one you are reffering now .
Cyanogen is something like base, master custom ROM. Only few try to build their ROMs based off AOSP source code, most of devs mod Cyanogen...Mod.
Chromatic is just themed Cyanogen.
About look - Android looks pretty the same, most ROMs affect things like kernel or system behaviour, not looks. Sense ROMs are pretty eye-candy, but IMO they are too heavy for G1. Only few vanilla Android ROMs are themed.
Android alone gives you AWESOME ability of customising alomst everything you want. You just have to search long enough. Trust me, you can change everything (of course it have some borders, too).
So what do you think i should use? It comes down to SuperE and Cyanogen.
Kinklic thing is kinda wierd lol..
Why not try both? Start with SuperE, it is meant to be fast CyanogenMod 5. I think you'll like it.
For me The best 2.1 I flashed is HTCCLAY's SuperBAD CM5 v1.7 awesome work its fast stable and i love this one. you can give it a try..
here's the link

dont thanks me...thank CLAy that he build such a gr8 ROM
I don't really use my phone for much besides texting and listening to music. I was wondering if you guys could recommend a ROM that would be good for me? I think I'd just want the lightest, best battery life ROM. I've never really dipped too deep into this sort of stuff, so browsing threads in the development section isn't really getting me anywhere.
If any of this info helps, this is what I've currently got on my phone (T-Mobile G1):
Biffmod 2.1
Dream PVT 32b Ship S-On
1.33.0013d SPL
2.22.27.08 Radio
RA-dream-v1.7.0 Recovery
Thanks for any help in advance.
I believe that biffmod is one of the fastest, cleanest, and most stable roms around. If you want anything faster, you would have to revert back to android 1.6. Either stock or by a dev here. However, I think biffmod fits the bill perfectly.

theres ezgingerbread, and ezterry's froyo aosp
both light and stable
There is also SuperAosp 6.4. To me it's stable enough. It also run fast for me.
i agree with maximo360. ezgingerbread, ezterry froyo ota, xillius donut if you dont mind android version. superbad cm5 is good also. ads magpie is like ezgingerbread.

+1 to all the above posters, to really get speed out of the G1, you must revert to 1.6 to get the best experience, you will be very happy with that. Gingerbread is pushing it if you want to get the best speed, froyo might be a go since it does feature JIT to increase speed, same goes for ginger...But Ginger is very heavy on older devices, so I would say stick with donut, when I used the G1 I stuck with Enom's donut ROM or Ben bauncher[is that how you spell it?], I don't know of the other donut builds but those two are my top choices for anyone.
Donut or Froyo...
Hi,if you want everything to work without troubles and stable flash HtClay fastest 3.0.3 or Froyo by Lazslo with Farmatito kernel... Š•verything works brilinat and batery life is long
My wife's phone died today and I'm going to resurrect my old G1 and give it to her ... I was running CM-something on it and was not happy because it was very slow and crashed a lot ...
So ... what is the fastest and most stable G1 rom? She doesn't care about GPS or special features -- she just wants a phone that will work well.
"We are offering three kind of ROMs: fast, stable and full featured
you can choose any two characteristics:
- fast and stable will not be full featured
- fast and full featured will not be stable
- stable and full featured will not be fast"
It depends much on what you want. First you have to choose the base, i.e. Gingerbread, Froyo, Eclair, Donut, Cupcake?
Then you have to decide if you need apps2ext?
Then you need to decide about additional features / settings.
Some ROMs which are working well in my opinion are:
ezGingerbread/ADS_Magpie, CM 7.1 Magpie, FroyoByLazlo, Enomther's Original Donut, ... there are much more, but I do not know them well.
If she just wants a basic phone that you can text/call/email/browse web then use dwangs 1.6 rom. Never crashes or FC's
Then download opera mini browser

or use superD. I find it pretty fast with my ancient of days g1..
You can choose in value of what do you want:
1. Fast games and programmes - froyobylaszlo (or CyanogenMod6, or BiffMod)
2. Beauty graphic - LegSense.
3. Stable - donut 1.6
Choose =)

Check out any 1.5 or 1.6 from dev HTCCLAY. Very very smooth and stable.
Well if that's all, I then recommend u to use gingerbread, it's so stable with very very few crashes
Thank me later

I'm sorry, I have used a lot of gingerbread ROMs and Gingerbread is one of the unstable kind. I would prefer, if you're not into lots of apps and only for music, use a Donut ROM, where the phone is made for. Super D is an awesome ROM, good speed, but if you are into apps and want one of the latest firmwares, use FroyoByLazslo with a ICS theme, looks awesome, can't find the thread though.
