By doing it, the sense interface and browser scrolling becomes smoother? I was wondering if it was possible to have a page scrolling as fast as my ipod touch 2g

I can't believe that no one is using it...

I'm not using a Sense ROM so I'm unable to help you with this, but I suggest to you to do a nandroid backup in recovery, try installing the mod and see if it helps. If you don't like what you get, you can easily restore your nandroid backup. My opinion is it that it probably won't have an effect on browser scrolling speed.
EDIT: typo
My legend is not rooted... I don't want to loose warranty just to try it

Hey guys, I'm running stock htc sense right now without root. I've done my homework on rooting and am looking to install a stock android rom onto my hero. I would like to get pikiprs wii controller app to work on my phone but it does not work with sense. What is a good rom without sense and with overclock?
Also, what is a good rom without overclock? What are the chances that I fry my processor using overclock?

Darchdroid is pretty good, and quite fast.
Try alysius pure hero 2.1 maps/overclocked. Make sure to also do apps2sd its awesome. Good luck

Chances of frying the processor are slim. It's been thoroughly tested on our phones and others with the same chip.

Does this rom have live wall papers? I can't seem to find one that has maps, lwp, and overclock.

Doesn't exist. You either get maps with overclock....or lwp with overclock. That's just how it is unfortunately....but honestly lwp are just dumb imo haha. Our phones can 'barely' get it to work and only with the most basic ones.
Supposebly the ROM says it does not but LWP does work I tested it myself. It is the fastest most stable rom that I have tried and believe me it took me a week to decide into this one so much talent pool in these forums. It depends what you want for phone for and what you want to do with it. Pure hero works with TV/NFL and all the apps i've been installing. As I mentioned make sure you do apps2sd as well so you can take full advantage of the phone performance.
I am also running PureHero 2.1 and love it.
Don't worry I'm not asking "Which rom is the best". After all thats an insult to developers and its a matter of preference anyway. I'm asking which one meets my needs or most of them anyway. I'm looking for a rom with the following:
*No annoying "android is upgrading" on every boot
*All animations enabled
*wifi tethering unlocked
*ability to disable lte and use hspa+/Edge only
Other things that would be nice but not as important:
*bloatware removed (I can do this with TB anyway if rooted)
*ASOP notification bar theme, no more gb looking icons (probably can do this with uot kitchen dunno)
*"visual voicemail" button removed from dialer Google voice button instead? (Is this possible? If anything just linking gvoice to it would work)
*Sense 4 launcher or just a modified 3.6 launcher with Widgets in the app drawer (I don't think it exists but I know I could just as well use apex or nova but I love the sense Widgets)
*removed recent apps from notification area (whats the point? I can just hold home anyway)
*configurable quick settings
Also ROM has to work on the HTC vivid on at&t. Quick question too does permaroot mean permanent forever? Like there's no way back? Also I noticed the vivid tools and the rooting ics guide which one should I use? And lastly do I need to achieve s-off or is rooting enough? I apologize for all the questions but I came from the captivate and its stock with an unlocked bootloader and almost designed for rooting and custom roms

So you would defenitely want either PGs rum float or (just Google: androidninjas)
Or wild child's from. Google wcxxperia...
As for permroot , it means it is permanent you want loose root on reboot or power downs. But not permanent as in never go back. There are a hand full of ways to go back...
Try using the super guide first. I think In the guide he puts a link to his toolkit. But since you aren't really familiar with this use the super guide. It goes step by step.
Hope this helped.

How about you read all of the ROM's threads, test each one out and see which one you like.
I've been reading up on them but its a bit confusing ATM.
you can't go wrong with the Virtuous Inquisition rom or the wajee ones, search the development thread, there are like 5 new roms.
Yeah gotta admit with the great one x reviews and the gs3 launch I was starting to regret getting this phone but seeing the recent surge in development makes me feel more confident. I originally didn't plan on rooting and installing a custom rom but I kept my captivate stock for all of 2 weeks and its killing me how limited I am to customizing plus I loved using my cappys wifi tether with my flyer and lte is eating my batteries and killing my phone when using Pandora over Bluetooth! If anything I may just root soon so I can tweak the phone
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
Sounds like either the virtuous or Wajee's from would be a good choice for you. They are ports of sensation rooms so all three current ones have hspa/edge connectivity only from what I've seen. They are very slick and quick with running either the stock ics launcher (wajee's unsensed) or apex (virtuous). There might be a few bugs still being worked out but those are the closest to what you seem to require at the moment!
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
Yeah I was looking at both of those. Does hspa+ aka fake 4G work?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
as far as I can tell all signs points to yes. I ran some speed test and they are holding close to what I got stock in my non-lte town

Cool. Only thing is I do love the sense widgets and the lockscreen shortcuts. Guess you can't have it all.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
The unsensed beta has lock screen shortcuts, but no HTC Widgets tho unfortunately. That's a sacrifice for such a nice rom. But with beautiful widget you don't really need the HTC Widgets.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
Yeah I got beautiful Widgets and fancy Widgets actually. Bought fancy Widgets when I got my captivate and beautiful Widgets was on sale for 10 cents during Google's 10 days of 10 cent apps. They do a great job no doubt but one thing they can't do is animations. But they do have an advantage with the ability to link custom weather apps because honestly the sense one is meh.
The unsensed one must of borrowed that from cm. CM7 had the rings lock screen where you could add a third ring and add up to 4 shortcuts with it. What is the aosp ics lock screen like? The way Google made it sound was lock screen shortcuts are built in. Honestly as long as I can access my camera I'm good.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
From what I can tell its pretty much the same lock screen then. Camera/phone/SMS/unlock from that screen.one bonus too is lock screen control for music apps . Rdio/slacker is so much better now
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
Sounds good I'll give them a try when I get time to sit down with this thing. My flyer took a bit to get it rooted, lots of adb commands etc. Don't think the vivid will be as bad as the flyer doesn't have a GUI to use.

Rooting the phone is quite simple. Even doing the s-off is fairly a easy process when it comes down to it. Follow the guide and you should be fine. If you need help post here or jump on the irc, a lot of smart people hang out there and love helping out.

Wait, they don't have LTE? Why would that be the case, since it is using a Holiday radio? I personally haven't tested it, as I don't live in an LTE area.
Also, Virtuous is using Nova, which I instantly replaced with the stock ICS launcher.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA Premium App
I don't even really care about lte now. Only real use of it is to show off your download speed to your friends. But it eats your battery alive and causes overheating issues and just pointless anyway with a 2 gig data cap. When I went on vacation a coupled weeks ago I went out of lte coverage and battery life was worlds better and I was still getting 12 meg down. 12 meg is what my home internet is so hspa+ is all you really need.

As far as I've seen the ports don't have late because they are straight ports. These roms don't have lte support built in. You can confirm this by going in the dialer and typing *#*#4636#*#* and under phone information. The option for late isn't available. But like the op said. Its mostly not required while using your phone 90% of the time. It just uses your data a lot faster and doesn't really change much else in your web browsing experience.

Hey one quick question. I was looking at the Junopeterbear S-off and it looks kind of complicated...wire trick? Do I need to even concern myself with that or is just unlocking the bootloader and obtaining root access enough? ugh... I have to take the phone apart? Man I don't even wanna mess with that. Hopefully they'll have an ADB method or cwm flashable method in the future. I'll just stay away from that!
Edit: yeah sure enough the screw on the panel I need to pull off has a sticker that says "void" on it. I don't want to void my warrenty. Obviously flashing a rom technically does that but only if they can proove it! Might be different if I ever even once made it through a contract without having to swap my phone out for various hardware failures (Captivates speaker broke swapped it out and 3 months later the power button died on the refirb)

According to cruzin_cruising, the Virtuous ROM still has LTE support. I don't really know, since I don't live in an LTE area.
Using Holics v1.1 and it seems when i go to settings, sound, music effects setings stops working, noticed this since day 1 of this rom, any fix? Otherwise it works great, Thanks to the developer, thumbs up

Did you do a full wipe befor flashing holics 1.1? I don't have music effects option in settings>sounds> so maybe its left over from a previous Rom...cause mine doesn't have the option under sounds...

Hey Guyz,
I recently downloaded GTA 3 on my IncS with Viper, and I found that I cannot get past a cutscene without phone rebooting.. Does anyone relate to this and if so, is there a fix/work-around for this? It used to work on Stock Sense 3.6, bit it doesn't now...

It might be an app issue. Contact the dev.

I found viper to be glitchey while running large processes for example on most ROMs I can have a torrent client running in the background while I use my phone to play games however on viper rom I can't even use torrent because the lag is through the roof even when overclocked to 1651. Viper rom does not and will not allow you to run large processes.

So should I switch? I was thinking of switching to BlackOut..

It really depends what your looking for in a rom. For me it's speed, stability and light customization. For you, it might be something else.

Try what's in my signature, it's over a year old but rock solid and I get 3 days of heavy use out of it. I think people need to get over this whole ics and jb thing we could just improve upon gb ROMs and there would be no problems.

Hello I have a problem a long time ago, same with older sense versions. The problem is after I install a new App and then I go to the App drawer its darker than usual. I have to hit home and then its normal again. Screenshot attached to see the difference. I use stock rom with custom kernel. It did happen before too when the phone was completly stock

Do you change the speed of animations in developers? Set it back to 1 if you on 0.5
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app
I had that on all sense 5.5 ROMs. After upgrading to sense 6 it dissapeared. Obviously it was some kind of sense 5.5 bug and changing animartion speed didn't help. I even asked service about it, but they didn't know how to fix it
