MIUI is a lot like iOS, in so far as it doesn't have a app drawer, but it maintains all the functionality of a custom ROM, and it massively customisable to boot. If you prefer something that feels close to what you've come from, there's a decent custom build of the latest ICS version here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1912064
Word of warning: whilst all the Jellybean ROMs that are available for our device are very smooth, they're all quite buggy. I wouldn't say they're quite up to daily driver standards yet.

pff iPhone users... haha okay, Sense 4 is the best way to go imo, so try Project X or ViperVIVO as soon as it comes out

HTC Sense Droid 3 Rom

So I know it probably is really hard, but I was wondering if anyone has plans to make a HTC Sense rom for the droid 3. I would make it myself, but I have no idea how. I saw a video on Sense running on Droid 1 via Rom. So I know it is possible. To all the developers, it would be very popular, a lot of people like Sense.

This thread does not belong here.
I also doubt that we'll ever have a Sense rom (unless we have a very experienced dev who has worked in both Sense and Blur environments that could port it over) at least anytime soon. If we were to have one, lots of things would be broken.
i already have a iphone 4s rom with full working siri ported to the droid 3, full working cm8 and miui ics, htc sense shouldnt be that hard do you want htc sense v4.0? on ics?

You're best bet is to contact that d1 dev and see if he'll work on a droid 3 version. That and throw him some cash. I would love sense on my d3.

I can't understand the irony here.
Was done for the MS1, I cant see why can't be done for the D3.
And altough I casnt like a lot the Sense aesthetic, is pretty evident that the sense fw is light years ahead the amateur motorola UI.
So yes would be nice to have the sense FW ported to the D3.

Wow, your a beast with roms. Sense 3.0 is good with me, anything else is icing on the cake. You should totally do it. You gonna do it? I know just by looking at this, that it will be pretty popular. PM if u need a rom tester, i currently am not rooted because so far, have not seen an roms worth it. But this would be worth it by far to me.

Lol enough with the sarcasm. It won't happen. Sense 3.0 won't happen on the Droid 3. Period. Even people like Koush can't do it. If you want to know why its impossible, google it. You will find your answer.

Who said sense 3 ?
The OP asked about sense in general. Sense 2 is still light years more powerful and refined then the very latest motoblur.
If there's a reason because we sont see this happen is because the user base, original milestones and droids were true milestones, and come practically in the desert.
the D3 is just an average phone, sold side by side with a zillion of other phones.
Droid 3 was sold in millions of pieces, ms1 in hundreds of thousands, this surely won't happen with the D3.
And, as usual, larger user base = more developers involved = more chances to have the SW you need.
I said Sense 3.0. Got a problem with that?

HTC Vivid Dead Lack of Devs

Why is it that when I just upgrade to the HTC vivid all the devs quit working on it now I'm stuck with the phone...
Does anyone think there will be any new development for this phone or did I just waste my money? Thanks in advance also does anyone have any idea how much American Currency my White 10/10 condition S-OFFed Unlocked with Holics Rom would be worth I'm probably gonna sell it and buy a new phone like a SII or SII
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Some have moved on yes and its quite from time to time but there are still some great roms , kernels , and programmes out there for the device as there is still a few good devs working on stuff , I'd give it a chance and try some out here and other forums and find one ya like , but if your a flash catholic then maybe its not the device of choice .
Good luck and enjoy .
There's a Sony xperia port in the works over at rootzwiki....
And you wouldn't get more than $300 for a perfect condition...I got mine for $225 8/10 like 4 months ago...that was the typical price...since the phone has aged...prices/demand has also dropped...
Next time before upgrading do research on more then just the hardware of the phone...

What's is the difference between a Xperia port and any other Rom and yeah I know I didn't really think of it when I bought the phone
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Its because the device is a nightmare to develop for. Most developers have moved on to more developer friendly hardware, you can't blame them really. Aside from battery life, this is a great phone for a non techie, or an iphone user who wants to try "something else". But its not for the hardcore android fan, and its not a geeks phone at all.
My mistake buying this phone was (a) thinking sense was better than at actually was and (b) thinking I was done with custom roms and just wanted a good stable phone. The biggest mistake was extending my contract another 2 years to get it, I can correct the phone easily, Galaxy nexuses are only $350 off google play, you sell this phone on ebay, you'll get over half of it there. But being stuck with overpriced AT&T for 2 years, thats the real regret!

An xperia port is basically a Sony phone...so its whole New UI, its not sense and its not aosp...its Sony UI...whatever that is lol
But like Motorola has motoblur, Samsung has touchwiz, HTC has sense...Sony has...idk, but its getting ported
Oh yeah, its gonna be ics 4.0.4, not 4.0.3 like the rest of our rims...

How come no one has mentioned WCX? He's about the best dev for our phone and his Roms are completely stable with 0 bugs and awesome battery life and plenty of updates. Rafy is going strong with his ports too and they are good but battery life isn't as good for me so I tend to stick with WCX.

post which rom are you using and reason for it?

hello to all of you buddies...
i am opening this thread so as to make easy for everyone to get views about various roms available for nexus 7...i think it will also decrease the counts of threads asking "which is the best rom?"
pls also post the model (3g or wifi only) so as to avoid confusion with the post...
anybody fell free to post your views about kernels also...
I use Rasbeanjelly with Motleys modified kernel for kexec, so I can multiboot with ubuntu.

Not rooting a nexus device is like owning a Bugatti Veron and not using the the key to unlock the performance mode lol. Just joshing you a little. It does do well stock I must say.
Right now I am cm10.1 but sure I will be a flashaholic like I am with my bolt. Lots of ROMs and kernels to choose from. I am like a kid in a candy store

Paranoid android 2.99 on my Nexus 7 wifi - I use it over stock because of the hybrid ui options and control over dpi on an app by app basis. Other stuff I like is 'fullscreen' mode option on the power button pop up thing.

I know it, but I bought it when my laptop was out of commission due to HDD failure and by the time I got my HDD and realized I needed recovery discs and finally got it going again I didn't want to unlock my boot loader and lose all my game progress. So as long as I'm satisfied with stock I'll use my g'nex for flashing purposes

Just like a 'best ROM' thread, this is thread useless. You can easily see what ROMs are the most popular by looking at their threads in the Dev section and seeing the level of activity. Knowing that still doesn't tell you what ROM is best for you. Only you can decide that based on your own needs and usage.
Sorry folks.,
One of the big no-no's is asking which rom is best.
This, can only be answered by installing several roms, and deciding which is best for "You".
One can read the threads, and see which rom has the least issues, and also see what features are best for your needs.
WE can't make that choice for you. If we could, then there would only be "1" rom for all users, based on the highest amount of posts.
In the end, YOU have to decide.
Thread closed, in an effort to prevent flaming.

Which rom would yall prefer? Google edition Rom or debloated sense?

Currently I'm not an htc owner but my introduction to Android was through htc phones. Htc one looks amazing. Ive grown to like the stock Android aosp experience because of its overall speed and performance. But do like some of the add ons that some phone manufacturers have implemented.
If I owned a one I'd probably go with a debloated sense with nova launcher.
But Now that the Google editions Roms are out what have you grown to like better?

Try them both and see which one you prefer. Our opinions are totally irrelevant when it comes to what you prefer.

They aren't relevant at all..
There are enough youtube videos of both roms for you to make your own mind up. Just get the phone, use sense for a couple of days, then use a GE rom for a couple of days and see which one you prefer.

All necessary said. There is no "best" or "better" in roms. Only personal preferences. So try yourself and decide.

There is no such thing as a "best" rom... there is only personal taste... Try different rom and see what the have to offer that you like...I personally like to stay as close to stock as possible so I don't like roms that have for example the app side bar....but you might.
yeah I understand why youre asking but at the end of the day the best rom for you is the one you like best.
I currently use stock it does what I need until there is an option I am missing or a rom with a far and away performance boost im cool with that.
Just ask yourself what specific things do I want?
Look for a rom with those. If there arent any specific ones do what was mentioned and look for 3 or 4 roms that you find interesting and dive right in
Oh and Backups = Awesome!
While i agree with everything said.
If you specify what your after in a rom. We could point you to one that fits the bill.
I personally like stable with everything and the kitchen sink.
Currently using euphoria and extremely happy.
What car is the best? ...... see
It's subjective. There is no best rom, that's like asking what's the best shoe to wear? Everybody has their own choices.
Its your responsibility to see what's out there and then give them a try.
