The best rom, up to date?

Sorry for such a general question but, what's the best, fastest and most stable rom up to date? Something that runs on the Hero layout would be nice =). I am currently running MoDaCo's Hero rom(5.3) which is quite fast, but seems a bit outdated now. I've tried other roms like Eclair 2.2 and KingKlair's 1.0 rom(which was incredibly slow and had FCs D. If anyone could give me suggestions(don't say search bar, as that thing hates me) to what roms are good it'd be great . Sorry if I'm asking too much here, but some eyecandy would be good too =D.

Herver's EclairOG

Do you know if video on that rom lags ._.' as some Ecalir roms I've tried had laggy video whenever I tried to view something.

all eclair drivers will have problems playing video since there are no video drivers that have been released for the G1/MT3G...

That news is quite depressing :'(. Guess I'll just stick with Modaco's until a fix arrives.

best rom

in my opinion super D 1.6 or 1.6.6 < waiting for 1.7 should be out any time. are the BEST roms. fast, no problems so far. and runs market and all the good stuff...
idk if it's what your looking for since it's not much for eye candy, but it's an efficiant rom.
hope i helped

super D 1.6 is amazing. I loved it, and still have it on my switchrom for when I need a fast phone. Other than that I use MLIGN 3.2B hero. Maybe wait it out a few months until switching to espresso. Happy flashing

honestly, the best advice i can give you is to just try out different roms. each rom runs differently on every different device. xROM Eclair by JAC runs beautifully for me. absolutely amazing, but for someone else, it may be awful. it's all about how it does on your device, so just try out different ones and pick the one that suits you best.

I would recommend CSDIv1...its super fast and stable. But if you do like Sense UI, I use MLIGN Hero 3.1B...but as grandomegabosses recomended, I suggest you to try each rom and decide by yourself, because not everybody have the same setup, ie. Swap, Ext, Swapiness, Clock...and that may cause differencies of speed on one phone and another

Best ROM up to date
King's AOSP 2.1 [v1.2] hands down!
The fastest and most stable Eclair rom yet. It has tons of eye candy and lightning fast for an eclair rom.
Flash it now!

No, it's not a lockscreen at all. It's the Clock app for Eclair that comes with the rom.

Oh, nice....i have never opened that app lol

Thanks for all the help, ended up going with Super D's rom and I must say this rom is hella fast =)

Best rom to date is the stock rom on Nexus

Which is your favorite and why?

I'm stuck between KiNgxKxlicK AOSP 2.1 v1.6.1 vs CM v4.2.14.1
What would you choose/using and why??

CM because it has all the drivers atm. I love eclair, but I want everything to work. Once those are out, Cyanogen will make an eclair also, so I will probably flash that over once it comes around.

that's like comparing apples to oranges. you can't really compare them because they're completely different beasts.

Using latest dwang's because it works flawlessly

that wasn't one of the choices!

I'll End it right here.
If you want a 2.1 ROM= OpenEclair
If you want Donut=Dunkin Donuts
...If you want a 1.6 ROM=Super D

if i were to recommend a 2.1 rom, i would suggest Cloverdale's Blue_Haze OE v1.1. yes, it's not on xda, but do some research and you will be rewarded.

I like Super D 1.9.2 because of the speed but then it has the downfall of the 10mb hack during games like ShootU! Which I loved, had to refund it

I did research all i found was his theme. Besides how much better can his be compared to others? Honestly coming from a Kinglick AOSP 2.1 ROM i love it and its by far the best compared to other 2.1 roms i've tested. As far as speed and stability goes, Anyways.
And I've been seeing alot of Super D flying around, But how fast are his ROMS? Like 'Super tap an app and open fully' fast or 'Tap an app and wait 2-3 seconds for it to fully show'?
And by the way, @xabierd Any ROM is ACCEPTED! Just wanna know what people are using and WHY? I mean, because it has video working. It's lighting fast. It's stable. It has a certain feel you like, WHATEVER!
DROP IN YOUR 2!!

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.
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk

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

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

Best ROM for Sense UI?

I'm curious what the Nexus One community thinks is the best, most stable rom for running a Nexus with Sense UI. I tried evil D's Sense Froyo and it was decent but the graphical artifacts were a deal breaker (as he himself points out, they are pretty bad). There is that Foolpoof Guide in the development boards for running Sense with 2.1, but it seems very laggy on my Nexus One.
Are there any Sense UI Nexus One roms out there for the general public that are possibly running 2.2 that anyone here could recommend?

Sense 2.1 Rom request

Hey i was wondering if there were any new gingersense roms that are only 2.1 with no added 3.0 features. as much as i like 3.0 i find all the roms a bit buggy. i think its due to the low memory and big file size of the 3.0 apps
im just looking for a full sense 2.1 rom so i can have the pull down toggles and the new app drawer. any roms out there?

I am currently running the Optimized Gingersense Beta 1 rom. It is strictly Sense 2.1 and is very stable for me. I have been using it as my daily driver since it was released. I know the latest Betas have been a mix of Sense 2.1 and 3.0, but I am waiting for them to become a little more stable.
Good luck.

That rom incorporates bits of Sense 3.0 as well. I think the idea of a 2.1 port would be great!
EDIT: I missed the beta 1 portion, my apologies.

what are some of the bugs in beta1? mms?

yea i dont think it would be to much to change. the lockscreen and weather app are a big bulk of the size i believe

I would also love a stock sense 2.1 rom

Arent all of the Sense 2.1 ports GSM based? Everytime I used a Z Rom or Sense 2.1 or 3.0 (Whatever hybrids they are now) I would get phantom calls, funny mobile data switching, and the like.
If there was a CDMA based port perhaps this would all be moot?

There's a Thunderbolt gingerbread leak that one of the devs said he'd look into seeing if it was easy to port - assuming data worked when he tried. Not sure on his progress... but I too would like to see a stock 2.X rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996193 - link to TBolt leak.

warm z 2.0 ran wonderful on my phone and i had no phantom calls. these were some problems for others i believe. its just hard coming from warm z which was super smooth and going to a 2.1/3.0 hybrid with all that bulk and then getting lag in places i never experienced before

I'm behind this one too. Not saying that the 2.1/3.0 hybrids are bad, rather quite the opposite. They are amazing ROMs with amazing developers behind them. Just the 3.0 features create lag in places and eat just a little too much of our quite limited ram for what I do with my device. Would have made a full stock 2.1 with the new fixes myself except ... lol ... I don't know how.

I would love to see a port right from the EVO Shift...it's cdma and some 2.1/3.0 ports are already floating around out there...nothing it stock 2.1 though.

I think you will find that the 2.1/3.0 Roms have come a long way. Nils ginger sense is getting great reviews. If you have a spare 30-40 minutes, flash Newts Hybrid. He has fixed a lot of the issues. He just found the 720 cam fix and it also fixed the gallery. No lag in lock screen and no Rosie loading issues. Worth playing with.

not saying they havent, the definitely have, i just prefer sense 2.1 everything pretty much, at least for the dinc, only camera and weather do i like @ 3.0

The newest ones are cdma based (evo shift and evo 3d) so the phantom call issue is nonexistent on those
