Hi I saw somewhere that a 'Rogers' ROM is basically a cupcake with the HTC dialler added, could anyone recommend a recent Rogers ROM worth flashing?
Had a search in the dev section but couldn't find anything recent. Any cons to the Rogers ROMs?
(Giving up on Hero due to lag. Yeah, I tried!)
Soullife's Rogers 2.9.2. I'm recently changing roms, testing new experimental and Drizzy's builds, but Rogers is great due to speed + full exchange support.
Cool thanks. Is it the actual HTC dialler or something similar?..

There's several versions of the "Roger" ROM Build in the dev section. Most of them though, aren't being working on currently besides a few, but here's a complete list to get you going:

I've tried all the different Rogers build & can recommend both Virtudude's V3, or Soulife's Roger Remix depending on what you want to get out of the rom. Soulife does a great job bringing Cyanogen's new kernel's & trying to optimize his build to be as fast as possible along w/ the great features you'd expect like apps2sd, stable, themes, etc.
If you want just a stock build that don't automatically push apps to sd, stable, etc. I'd recommend either Virtudude's V3 Mod, or my own updated version of Virtudude's V3. It's built w/ the latest updates which is basically equivalent to a CRC1 build of the HTC builds plus other updates as well.
Most people who run the Rogers builds need the build in support for Exchange, the dialer, & the camera. I personally like the mail program, dialer, camera apps. The Rogers build do have a quirk about some widgets don't like to update after a while or get "stuck." It personally don't bother me, but I can see how it would annoy some. As much as I was excited about hero, I prefer the stability of the Rogers build. In the end, it all comes down to personal choice. Hope you find the build you like. Oh btw, right now personally, I'm swapping between my V4 mod & a modified Soulife 2.9.1+ the CRC1 updates & a couple of other updates. Both are running great. Hope that helps. Take care.
Ditto... Soulife Rogers is the most recent and updated Rogers rom.
It IS the actual HTC Dialer and has full exchange support. It's extremely stable and fast much like Cupcake.
I'm running Soulife's latest, and this is the first time I've run a ROM and felt absolutely no need or desire to change to something newer or different, been using Soulife for a few weeks now and don't plan on changing anytime soon, super fast, super stable, all the features I need and want (and I run OpenHome on it with Hero theme).

Hey vr24,
Did you ever try CRC1 update build I did for Soulife's 2.9.2 posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4289989&postcount=629
Just curious, I know NexVision was testing it & said it was running well, but we didn't seem to get any other feedback on it. I'm looking forward to Soulife getting his laptop so he can start working on things again. Since other were saying they were having some issues w/ 2.9.2, I did another re-build of 2.9.1 w/ the CRC1 update & was able to get Cyanogen's Dalvik VM from Donut from 3.9.1 working on it as well. That's what I'm currently testing. I've been running that for 48 hours now & haven't had any issues. I was going to post it in Soulife's thread if others were interested.
I'm running a straight 2.9.2 with the Hero theme slapped on top.
I am running Swapper and it's speeding it up noticeably even more, and the latest release of OpenHome is much faster too as they updated the process handling.
I'm really having no issues, nada. I may not be doing the same things that others are having issues with, but I wach videos, take pictures/video, use full exchange, have a ton of apps, widgets, etc... and everything run's super fast, no lag.
So I probably won't upgrade to anything for a little while.
Wow, thanks so much, missed these replies!
Will try out Soullife's now...
Also ... quick question about backup / restore if anyone can help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4367316#post4367316
I like Ramjet r7.
So, I see that there is a 2.1 update for the HTC Hero CDMA from Sprint and I'm very interested in upgrading to be able to use some of the better software out there that doesn't work on 1.5.
The thing is, I finally managed to fix this phone from a bad rooting procedure (it's a used phone, the previous owner rooted it using who-knows-what method and ROM, which caused the wifi to stop working) after spending weeks on the problem and finally have a good, fully-functional phone. So, now, I'm a bit paranoid about any rooting or upgrade procedure, though I suspect and official update from a Sprint shouldn't cause a problem.
I'm also considering doing a basic rooting (no custom ROM) so I can boot into ClockworkMod Recovery and make a complete backup, but, again, I'm very leery about it.
Is there any possibility that rooting, in and of itself, could cause the wifi to stop working or was it that the specific ROM that was installed didn't have the right wifi driver?

Dude there are literally thousands of people running custom roms flawlessly ....taking that in to consideration, what do you think the answer to your question is? Lol for liability purposes we all have to say "there's a risk" but my 11 year old sister rooted her evo and flashed cm7 without any help

Well we've had some that had broken wifi long ago but really you probably just could've flashed a new working kernel over it and the problem would be gone. If you wanna stay stock-ish I'd recommend fresh 2.1 but if you wanna really see it fly flash kush-deck gb. Flash the. 29 kernel after you boot and you will never regret it

Thanks, I'll check those out sometime. Have you got links for them?
Believe me, you don't want the stock Sprint 2.1 on your Hero. It's terrible. Super slow and it freezes constantly. I ran it for a short time after Sprint released it and that's when I decided to root. If I remember correctly you also can't put your apps on the SD card with it which really limits how many apps you can install.
I am running CyanogenMod 6.0 Froyo with ADW Launcher (built into the Rom) and its snappy and reliable but still has a lot of the bells and whistles. Try Beautiful Widgets and you can have a homescreen clock with animated weather just like the HTC Sense homescreen.
I tried CM 6.1.1 recently (updated froyo with new features) but it used more internal memory than 6.0 which made my phone laggy.
Be sure to get the appropriate Google apps zip file with the new Market

I managed to find some of the software I was looking for and I'm actually pretty happy to run 1.5; I actually find it quite usable.
i recently flashed Faux123's M7 (UV/Intelliplug/dfsync/FauxSound/s2w/Hybrid Linux 3.4+) [May-25] Kernel using TWRP. Now after checking everything else out, everything is in full working order except the Camera's. This is extremely upsetting because although I've been in the android modding scene for nearly a year now, ive never encountered this problem, nor do i know what to do. If anyone can offer help or links to help, I'd appreciate it very much. Thank You in advance.

Oh yes
i should also mention im running stock Sense 5 w/ 4.1.2 and tried flashing both listed camera fixes in the Fauxkernel thread to no avail. This is the biggest pain ever, and i am finding many other people are having this problem too.

Are you trying to run a custom kernel on a stock ROM? If so, there's might be your problem. Further, stop doing that--it's a very bad idea.

Yeah I am. Any stable custom ROMs you suggest for me to try? And supposedly it was only changing the Liboemcamera.so file or something like that. It doesn't matter though. I figured out that restoring it to a backup I made before I flashed the kernel fixed it. But now I have the problem I did before, with not being able to OC or especially UV and Fast Charge. As you know, this phones battery dies fast, and in the short time I was using Faux's kernel with UV/FC its battery life already had drastic improvements. So, can you help me get something stable like that?

Honestly, I'm surprised your phone booted without an issue. I've seen other folks who've flashed custom kernels on stock ROMs and be stuck in bootloops from hell.
TrickDroid and ARHD are both fantastic and I've frequently used both. They're also both running on Android 4.2.2, so they're the absolute latest you can get. ARHD focuses on refining and bettering the stock experience as much as possible without much changes. TrickDroid also has a stock look, but it lets you customize things a little more like the battery icon, clock location, etc. It's more your typical custom ROM, but it's not typical in it's awesomeness.
Thank god I'm so lucky. I never saw these problems in the forums for the kernels... No warnings, no instructions. I just followed the ones I remembered from my flashing days with the GS3.
I can find both of those on the forums, correct? And which do you prefer as a daily driver? Which one can I keep until stable CM10.1 comes out? Or maybe might want to keep even past that?

I bounce between these forums and the AT&T One forums trying to help folks out so I'm not sure where I first started seeing the stock ROM/custom kernel issues. Also I may spend too much time on these forums... >_>
Regardless, I'm a flashaholic. I swapped between ARHD and TrickDroid quite regularly. ARHD seems to be updated a lot quicker, probably due to the fact that it's tweaked less than TrickDroid. The fact that Mike has been around forever too probably helps. I don't know Torxx's work quite as well. That being said, I prefer TrickDroid over ARHD because of a couple tweaks that I like such as SMS screen on, center clock, and replacing the battery icon with a numbered percentage. Not sure if those tweaks are in yet, though, since the change to 4.2.2
Just a head's up on the AOSP front, there's been alot of reports that AOSP-based ROMs are having issues with the camera. Not that it isn't working mind you but that it's taking absolutely absymal shots. This is likely because HTC baked in some software magic to improve the the image quality and those features are missing from AOSP. I wouldn't use an AOSP ROM as my daily driver until the HTC One Google Edition has been released and hopefully it will have that software magic. Figured you'd like to know since the title of this thread is regarding the camera. :
Alrite well, cool. I think I'll check out ARHD tomorrow when I get home from finals. And thanks for the foresight on the AOSP, I doubt that I would've thought of that before hand. Don't wanna lose this camera, its beautiful. xD Anyways, I'll PM you tomorrow with an update on how that ROM works out or if I have questions before hand. For now, goodnight, and thanks for all your help!!!!

Good evening! I apologize if this question is already answered but I could not find, if so, please forgive! The Renovate ROM 4.1 clearly shows Sprint as an Option and during install it has a button for Sprint but at the end just before reboot, it says the Sprint kernel failed. Am I missing something. It won't reboot and I have to force back to Recovery and restore Old Rom. Rom looks great so I would really like to try but can't seem to find the issue. Thanks again for your time!! Mike
I doesn't work for sprint phones, only flash roms from the sprint one forum
From My TweakedOut ONE
Actually the 4.1 version works perfectly on sprint, make sure you are flashing the right version. Saw some posts where some could no longer find it, so maybe you are flashing the 4.2. The 4.2 will boot and run just fine with TL's kernel, but no radio, no data. Don't mess with that one for now.
Really enjoyed the 4.1, but moved away since development moved to 4.2

Thank you! I guess I am just confused, I was looking at the change log version 4.1 but I assume you are speaking of moving from Android 4.1 to Android 4.2?? Anyway, the only version available fails to load the Sprint Boot image at the very end of the install so I guess that's my warning to stay away. Thanks much!! I will try some others that specifically say Sprint. Thanks again!!

theres no source for sense 5 android 4.2.2 on sprint. The aroma installer that has the sprint option for the renovate rom was for android 4.1.2 sense 5. currently theres talk that sprint might skip the 4.2.2 update straight to 4.3
The title says it all. Is anybody interested in a Stock GPE Build for the Sprint S4? The purpose of this build would be a Stock GPE ROM with changes only needed to make it function correctly.
Basically, Keeping it as close as possible to stock GPE for the device with the exception of root/supersu and busybox.
The reason for this would be so dirty flashes work better and be somewhat supported and tested.
Danvdh's GPE build is awesome with many features however there is people like me that need a somewhat stable phone and don't feel like re-building and wiping the phone every time for a new flash.
Let me know what you think.
I think it would definitely be a good idea. Everyone has different needs and as you can see from reading the threads, it seems each phone acts differently on each of these Roms. Thank you for taking time to work on it if you do. If you need someone to test to see if your work causes a phone to glow in the dark, let me know!

No, it doesn't. That rom has been modded to hell and back and has nore issues with each release (which usually requires a complete wipe to even function). The OP of this thread is asking if we are interested in a more closely stock, more stable GPE rom without the mods and CM junk.
