Just out of interest; why is this forum full of people who jump into threads by people the slightest mistake and subsequently make their best effort to slag off/humiliate the OP?
If you don't have anything nice to say, it's probably better to say nothing at all... Does it really totally ruin your day to have to look down one thread further to find the next 'real' dev thread? At least smjfosho explained where to post - you were just 'jumping on the bandwagon.'

You can never go wrong with Cyanogen.

To the contrary Nick, I've found 5.0.* to be really slow for me, I was very disappointed. SpeedTeam latest roms are amazingly fast in comparison. About to try Cannons too.

Thanks up there guys!^
Which Rom do you perfer, CaNNoN's lateest or SuperEs latest? Talking in speed, batterylife, and everyday use

v1.0.1 Super E has it all!
Flash it and you will see for yourself.

Super E.
You get stable (cyanogen build) and you get speed (Ben is crafty). It is the only 2.1 I consider FAST AND STABLE.

Yeah guys!^ it is extremely fast! Im absolutely amazed. When will they fix the spare parts glitch though? Its kinda bugging me since i want a black theme. And you think Cyanogen 5.0.8 Stable is going to be as near as fast as SuperE or more to the CaNNoN speed?

Ohh and i put an avatar, why isnt it showing when i post?
EDIT: Got it.

In regards to the Spare Parts Color selector for the status bar use v1.0.1 to fix that issue for now.
Ben Buchacher is set to release another version of Super E soon, could be that he will use Cyanogen v5.0.8 stable

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.

Any new roms coming ???

Hey all loving the work you guys are doing ..i was just wondering if any new roms are coming out and wondering what people are working on

im updating blue echo and red dawn on a regular basis. maybe working on a new rom with a few guys from this site.

I just got done with Dirteh South - Fast Dubz. There are no real themes built in but it's mostly stock without bloat, overclocked, and fast.

I can't wait to see a froyo with sense.always love using sense. Just smooth and simple.

I can't wait! I love the AOSP ROM's but am excited to see what you come up with for this new ROM!

all ya really need is dd2.7 or CM6

not if you want sense lol, dd2.7 and cm6 are plain jane. i love um, but some are waiting for a sense bases 2.2 to come out...

most devs have moved on to the evo or the epic..the hero won't get near as many updates as it once had. ive tried a few roms including the froyo beta and i always end up back on the stock rooted sprint rom...with my own touches to it of course!

We've still got some dev's around. Evo gets their 2.2 update soon so out there will be a copy of 2.2 with sense in it floating around, doubt it will be long before someone figures out how to port it over to our hero's.

Go spit that crap somewhere else. The only dev that has fully left the hero is damageless. I've seen u do nothing but complain. Here's an idea go complain elsewhere.

No fixxxer no nerve touched. Let's see since evo came out....hmmm things that have come out...semi working froyo. Battery percentage mod. Overclock and under volt. Multiple roms. Battery tweaks. rooted 2.1. Plus many other mods and tweaks. Also many new users that have added to the hero. As far as I've seen this place is just as active as before. Its just since cdmahero got its own portal that its spread out a bit. There is less complaining (mainly cause u were gone) and most the convos r within threads that u prob don't visit. Plus lots of dev work is done via gtalk or irc and then released here. BTW who really goes to ppcgeeks.

next flash: Darky's or Insanity? Recommendations/endorsements?

have tried just about every custom out there with the exception of insanity and darkys roms.
Pondering both for my next flash....anyone have recommendations for which they prefer.
all comments welcome and encouraged but would doubly appreciate feedback from those who have used both.

Several threads like this have already been locked in the past 2 days. Why start another one?

I apologize if i am in error. I didn't realize there was any problem asking for specific feedback or recommendations on a particular rom or roms.
According to the forum rules what is wrong with my post?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=263#td_post_81
If i am in error please delete thread.

Just look through both Dev threads. That will give you lots of information on what people like about each one. And if you have flashed about everything under the sun flash both because chances are you will eventually.

I was just pointing out that these kinds of threads have been getting closed left and right the past few days. ROM recommendations are really very subjective. No one knows what your requirements are and how a ROM will fit them. What works for one will not necessarily work for all others. And the ROM Dev forum is really a better place to be looking.

I will add that anything i9000 based like Darky's has plusses and minuses. The plus is that you get great HSUPA speed. The downside is you get the EU flavor and features that don't work. Spelling of some things is EU, options for FFC are there but don't work.
There are many other details.... I just hope for the Captivate source/official release soon so we can get a true captivate 2.2 kernel and tools to build from.

Assonance all the way.

1. I was asking for feedback most specifically from people who has used both roms. This wasn't a Whats the best rom ever thread.
2. The developer thread definitely would not have been a place to post this and in my extensive use of the forum and reading and re-reading of the rules i fail to see how this post violates them. So again if i am mistaken...my apologies to all and i beg on the mercy of a mod to just delete the thread. (i have read both threads for the two stated roms....was hoping to hook more direct compare and contrast from users who have played with both.

lol have used assonance so i was just looking for feedback and comparison between darkys and insanity.
flashed darkys earlier and its a pretty rom but don't think i am liking it any more than Doc's or Chronus so i may give Insanity a run before going back to chronos or doc's.

hey thanks for being one of the first to post feedback thats actually relevant =)
i had went with darkys and what you said is right on. I think i still prefer Chronus Rom and Doc's most recent so will probably flash back to one of them but may give insanity a quick trial before.

So Darky's rom ported over to the Captivate as seen in this thread switches what exactly to make it Captivate-specific...just the modem, kernel and a few GPS-related modifications?

appreciate the link. had already trialed darkys...nice but i went back to chronus 2.0 for now.

Personally, I am partial to the breaded chicken sandwich with cheese and bacon. It is quite the treat, and you should only eat one per year to avoid heart conditions, lol.
On topic... I've been looking to start venturing into custom ROM's on my Cappy, but I am tempted to wait and see if Cyanogen ever devs their 6 or 7 for Captivate now that they are dev'ing for Nexus S...

I have used pretty much every ROM out there, even the ones that do not make it to the Captivate forum and so far Darkys is my usual go to ROM.
For some reason, when selecting the Gallery images, it is the only one that does not lag before going to the zoom in and out window.
I am not using Lag fixes btw with any 2.2.1 rom.

have had a chance to play with both....no more recommendations needed.

Cyanogen has got nobody working on gingerbread on G1. EzTerry is the legacy master for G1 gingerbread and many variations of his gingerbread roms have become available. The best I found and currently using is Ginger Yoshi by Yoshua. You can find it in the HTC SAPPHIRE/MAGIC forum. Its almost hundred percent. Very fast and cool. Try it

They have been talking about Cyanogen taking on (or asking somebody to take on) gingerbread for G1/Magic since the day gingerbread was announced but that has been categorically denied by Cyanogen himself several times. As for trying Froyo roms goes, its your choice brother......but its a huge PSYCHOLOGICAL pleasure and satisfaction when you see "ANDROID VERSION 2.3.2" written in your phone settings......that phone which is two and a half years old....well I love it that we dream/sapphire users have fast and cool gingerbread roms while Samsung Galaxy people have just got froyo only.........LOL

You should definitely try FroyoByLaszlo. Its probably the best ROM I've ever used. I've been using it since v1, and I usually never stay on a ROM for this long. It's by far way faster than any other Froyo ROM I've used. Plus, there's quite a lot of themes for it, so you can do a lot of customizing.

Laszlo is fast and from what I've been reading, has good battery life. I'm actually downloading the rom now to try out the new version. I've been using CM 6.1. That is also a good rom. You might want to try both of them and maybe other roms to. Just to see which one you like. Use them for a few days so you can check stability and batterylife.

Thanks man, I am currently using ezterry's AOSP and I can tell you that it is much2 faster than biffmod, you guys should try it! you have to upgrade the spl and radio first but it is not hard!
Happy flashingggg!!
