[Q] Best Rom?

Hey guys, I was just looking for your opinion on the best, and most stable rom for the incredible s, currently I'm running miui 1.9.9 and am pretty pleased with it, Im just wondering what else is out there, I tried htc bliss beta 2 sense 3.5 because i missed sense but it had camera issues so Im wondering what your opinion is and what youve tried

android revolution hd is the best hands down imo

"Best rom" is very subjective, as I'm sure a few other people will point out. I for one am using CyanogenMod and can say that I am very happy with it and don't plan to change any time soon. If you want to find more roms you can go take a look at the Development section of the Incredible S forums, there you will find threads concerning roms that you can try out for your device.

Hope you'll find something that suites you,
Cheers!

I agree with scoob on this one rev HD deff is one of the most stable ROMs out there. Cyanogen is very stable as well however I can't get over not having sense. I'd choose from those two both awesome HD is super fast while cyanogen is slightly slower yet is highly customizable and does not include sense.

well, as pointed out , the choice is very personal.
it depends on your preferences as there are some differences in most of the major roms.
so far i've tried ARHD, CM7, MIUI & Virtuous unity.
CM7 is quite good if you are interested in having a non-sense rom but the functionality, stability is top notch. CM7 has set a standard not just for stand alone developers but for corporate production as well.
ARHD is a very popular rom and most people using it will swear by it.
it is sense based, and it will feel like a charged up stock rom.
very professional as well.
MIUI is what i used the longest & i must admit it is a brilliant rom in the fact that it stands out in appearance & customization.
every app and every part of the system is beautified and it feels like a totally different phone. if you are looking to have a 'different' yet amazing phone, MIUI is the way to go.
but the major drawback with MIUI is that it is not officially supported for the INCs and thus there are some minimal bugs which can get a bit annoying.
And of course it has no app drawer, works like the iphone.
this can be handled by the wonderful app created by a member here called alt drawer.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154299
i feel this is a must for MIUI.
finally, using VU at the moment and i feel it is a perfect blend of sense components and that little something extra.
looks, feels and works amazingly well, minimal bugs and almost feels like the perfect rom again...
i did however run into a few loop boots recently, but i think that can be worked on.
that's my personal opinion on all the roms...
and i think it would be a good opportunity to give a heartfelt 'thank you' for all the developers here working so damn hard on providing world class roms for us.
Thank you guys, we all do silently thank and appreciate all your efforts!

Inc S is officially supported at miui.us. The two things I miss with MIUI is SRS and handsfree mic. Other than that, its the best lightweight rom available for Inc S atm.
MIUI with Tiamat Kernel works very well.

If you like Sense 2.1 or 3.0 i prefer ARHD.
If you don't like Sense i would go for CyanogenMod 7 Nightly #68.
But that's just what i think ;-)

i've been a user of ARHD, it's the most popular if i may say and developer is very responsive. i haven't gotten to try the other ROMs on an extended time but i'm pretty sold to the ARHD

I'm using CyanogenMod 7 and love it - very fast, good battery (after clearing battery data), and lightweight.
However it is the first ROM I've flashed and while I'm very happy with it, I'll still try others just to see what there is. But if you haven't tried it, give it a shot -you can easily download straight from the ROM manager app

i like revolution hd,but its sense 2.1

Im using arhd and it improves the batt life too. My first rom i flashed on my incredible s.

I'm using virtuos rom v2.37 by far the best rom with sense 3.0!! I've tried them all but the virtuos rom runs very smooth and no fc's.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App

I m using ARHD 1.1.7 with sense 3.0 patch. everything works fine. however the guy who don't like sense UI must b use CM7. it comes with a lot of customization. miui also a good one. but i dun like it , lack of appdrawer. look like with iphone.

Best ROM For Battery Life - Personal Experience?

Hey guys. I might be Rooting and flashing soon, and I'm looking for which ROM I should go for.
I was looking for one with good battery life (I use my phone for Music, Game's Etc.) and hopefully a ROM that has better battery life then stock.
I was also looking for one that had Sense 3.0.
Any chance such ROM exists? Any one tried a few Sense 3.0 Rom's and has had good battery life from one?
Thanks

Virtuous unity 2.35 does go good.... The sense 3.0 is just amaZIng! IF U WANT I'LL POST THE LINK HERE...
arhd is good too but then its over clocked to 1.5Ghz by default, so alot has complained for it doesn't boot up, stays in the HTC screen.
This ROM too gives u amazing performance but its mostly the users taste here...
And not to forget, Coredroid ROM... Man this ROM OS simply fantastic, I've used it before just because of the backlight issues removed it, the backlighta aka the 4 menu butons, doesn't work sadly.... But, there's gonna be an update soon, so yeaaaaaa! It's gonnna have sense 3 with the backlights fixed too...
Hope this helps....

The great thing about rooting and flashing is that you can create a back up and from there flash everything possible until you find what your looking for. One thing to remember is that you cannot kill your phone flashing new roms as they do not change your BIOS.

Thanks for all your replies guys - does anyone have a link to ARHD?
Sounds quite good
EDIT: ARHD Isn't full Sense 3.0, might leave that one... is Virtuous Unity a good one to go with then? (No bugs, good battery etc.)

i refer to ARHD 1.1.6
with kernel 4

Thanks Nabeeltanz for quoting my post
well, to add to the above post, i have personally experienced MIUI to have the longest battery life among all the ROMS.
My usage is quite heavy, 3g on all day, regular surfing with streaming of music for most part, a little gaming here and there, emailing and of course the messaging and calls. most of the ROMS i've used lasted me a full day.. MIUI did a little more.. consistently it would last for close to 2 days. it would definitely need recharging by the end of the second day..
but compared to the stock rom, all the custom roms do provide good enough battery life.

Cm7 nightly with tiamat 1.14 has been hands down the best imo.

I've also tried pretty much every ROM on here and its by far the best. I've had 2.5 days with standard use on one charge.

+1 for cm7n and tiamat

Just so say, I'm using Virtuous Unity and it's been brilliant so far.

To all those guys that use CM7 Nightlies (Test Release) with timat 1.1.4 , just want to clarify with you guys that do you guys get crashes on it?
I downloaded the latest test release last night and flashed it after I flashed my ROM and I've got to say that I keep get crashes (com.android.phone process has ended) . So what is the ROM that I should flash? Is it the stable version or the test version.
and can I flash the kernel (timat 1.1.4) on my Virtuous Unity 2.3.9? So what is that is power saving? The kernel or the ROM or both together? (im confused)

Nope no crashes here!
Did you wipe before you flashed it?
Also tiamat is for aosp roms only not sense..

I did a full wipe using ARHD 's (Super Wipe) and also using my Clockworkmod's wipe . I performed a NANdroid before flashing (of course im scared) . I had problems on the nightly ROM as I don't know why my Airplane mode keeps turning on by itself.
It will be great if you can help me by posting the exact link for the ROM you use and the kernel you used and even the recovery you used to wipe your entire ROM before flashing the new one ..
I'm still using VU 2.3.9 and I just realized that my battery life sux the previous time because I didnt flash the kernel of VU 2.3.9 (LOL) . I just flashed it and I'm currently letting it run to see how well is the battery.
as smartphone users, most of our main concern is the battery usage.. I would very much like to use CyanogenMod 7 Nightlies but just that I have second thoughts about it because it didnt have the "Quick Settings" or HTC keyboard that I was using on my VU . and I can't find and nice framework which is suitable..
so i guess if you could help me on this issue. I'll really appreciate it .

Best, Fastest Rom out there at the moment?

Hey guys, I've been changing roms alot recently and was wanting one that's nice and fast and has decent battery life.At the moment I have ARHD as I hear quite alot of good thoughts of it, but I think it's pretty average. It's slow and choppy. I've tried a reflash and I got rid of everything on my SD (I knew it wouldn't work, but thought I'd give it a shot)
So yeah, thoughts? Preferably one which has a kernel which supports OC'ing. Needs to be fast and nice to use, thanks all

This should really have been posted in General!!!! But according to me, try Virtuous Infinity (Still in Alpha but every feature except WiFi Hotspot Works) or try CoolDroid Revolution S by SurajKumar.

Ice Cold Sandwich 8.3 - You will appreciate the potential and amazing-ness of Android since you have no Sense and its an AOKP/AOSP. Battery will last for 2 days minimum with v4 Kernel. I'd say try it out, you won't be disappointed...you'll find that Sense is a waste of space and battery.

CM7.2 RC3!
I've been trying all the other roms that come out just for fun and some of them really are great but I can't help myself - I keep returning to CM7.2 after a week or so of each... It just works perfectly in every way, it's fast, stable and has a great battery life. Can't really ask for more. Second place is The Incredible 1.1 but that's not a surprise seeing as it is a mod of CM - the only thing not so great is the use of Launcher Pro instead of ADW but I guess that is down to personal choice.
Anyway, in the unlikely event of you not having tried CM7.2 I'd say fire it up

Don't know why you found battery life terrible...sometimes it's also a matter of what you like really...but once you try open Android you'll start fully appreciating it and start hating Sense from my experience...different people different opinions though.

The incredible 1.1: fully stable and using supercharger actually slows it down. It's lightning fast after install.

i too found that with the IceCold series up until 7.2/7.3 battery life was horrible. Sense roms seem to give a very good battery life lasting me well over a day. and i prefer the sense ui way better than stock aosp/aokp roms.

Well I'm back with ice cold and it is great! Haven't used it since 7.0 or somwthinf,... its just so much better compared to sense. Its faster and looks way nicer. Only thing is mms doesn't work. *sad face*

In IceCold 8.4 there's a solved MMS/SMS issue - at leat the one I had and I was one of the first people who experienced the problem in the first place. Plus if the automatic settings don't work out, the manual override is working without a glitch .... So it's fully working ROM for now but depends on how you install it/download it and other stuff.... It's all written in the thread but so far there's no other ROM that's as fast and as stable for me. Battery wise - I got through a full day of at least an hour talk time, browsing, WiFi moderate usage and I still have at least 50% when I get home. And my phone is on 3G/H mode all the time - on 2G/EDGE - it lasts two days :good: If that's bad you need Motorola Razr MAXX with the 3,3Ah battery

Apart from CM7.2! As it's GB based it is rock solid and everything works flawlessly. I use maps a lot and MMS too a bit and the compass works perfectly in maps and MMS is not an issue. No FCs, no compatibility issues (the earlier ICS roms seemed to be incompatible with some apps but that seems to be resolved completely now) and just no worries at all.
It'll be a different story once the devs get hold of the kernal source of course... once that happens I'll be grabbing CM9 so fast it'll get whiplash!

The only gripe i have with AOSP/AOKP is the camera.
It just cant churn out the same quality that the sense roms can

There's always Cyanogenmod 7 if you don't specifically look for an ICS rom. It works perfectly

I've tried a lot of roms and I always back to cyanogenmod, it has great battery life and performance and everything is working in it

I use cooldroid revolution s. It's almost full sense 4 and speed is amazing. It never lags. After flashing camera fix its great.
I tried other roms but no matter what I try I always come back to this rom.

ARHD, project x, we want ics, revolution, UKB....... All pretty much are working perfect minor a few bugs which you won't even notice.
I'm on project x and never had any issues yet.

Don't know if you're still into Gingerbread but I'm on Trinity SensationXL 5.0 with Unity 10 kernel on top and I can honestly tell you it does not lag whatsoever and battery life is great as well, it's the stablest custom GB rom out there you can get. The possibilities on GB are endless, with full V6 Supercharger support and customs kernels! You can never get bored overclocking your phone. :fingers-crossed:
As far as tweaking and theme'ing goes, there are numerous mods and themes out there that allows you to fully customize the rom to your personal needs, here's a couple;
Code:

Also I've discovered that a little bit of a system file (media_profiles.xml) tweaking can make your Sense 3.5 camera take crisp clear photos and great quality videos.

Project X smooth(anyway sometimes I can see a little lag, not bother me so much) in page transition, open drawer, pull down notification. Love it
Native Hotspot not working
Like me, sometimes I would like to stream video or photo from my IS to WD TV Live, this ROM(android 4.0.3) can't pre-select my WD TV Live as my media player to play all my Video or Photo. I need to re-select my media player for each video that I need to stream.
I don't how to add panel with this ROM. Probably I can't.

Thanks mate. I ll look into wat ya hav suggested.

[Q] What would be a good ROM for my Captivate?

What would be a good ROM for my Captivate? Like good battery usage, greate UI, all the other great stuff that we dream about

Good, great, awesome, is all in the eye of the beholder. These type of questions get locked pretty quick so before it does let me just say try a few different ROMs and see what you and your device likes best.

I tried hellybean, it was ok but I didn't see any huge advantages to it. Next I tried slimbean and was very impressed with it except for the latest update (2.9) knocked the gallery out of commission for me and I haven't been able to find a solution to correct it so I'm going to move on to something else.
They're easy enough to install that I'd say just throw one of the more popular ones on and use it for a few days and if you don't like it move on to another one until you find one that makes you giggly. :silly:

in my eyes.. helly bean is awesome.!

I liked helly bean a lot (was my first ROM actually) but for some reason it lags a LOT on my Captivate. The nightly cyanogenmod ROMs are much more fluid for me.
I'm still struggling some with battery life but I'm hoping to fix that with Better Battery Stats.

LaNight extreme butter project with sephi theme.
extreme smooth, battery friendly AOSP ROM.
highly recommended.
