I am back to a Samsung after having used HTC for the past few years. On the HTC m8 I was running renovate and Venom custom ROMs. Does anybody have any ROM recommendations for the T-mobile Note 4?

Dynamic Kat or infamous would suit you well if you like the customizations like in viper. I myself run FireKat, but that's what suits me best. Best bet is to go over all and give the ones that interest you a try.

So, I had my heart set on the One with Sense since it was announced and heard nothing but good reviews about it, but then the Google Edition was recently announced, it's basically a Super-Nexus. I currently have a Nexus 7 and a Droid X2 running CM10, so I'm familiar with Jellybean and like it very much!
So when I heard about the Nexus edition of the One, I was amazed. But then, I remembered since it's running stock Jellybean, it won't have the HTC only features like Zoe among others.
I'm open to the idea of changing the ROMs to get stock android if I bought the One with Sense on it...wait, is there a ROM that you can install to change to Sense 5 if I bought the Google edition!? That would be perfect if there was because I could try Sense if I wanted, but have Stock as my default and get all of Google's updates immediately!
I basically have to choose between:
HTC's Sense with all the Sense features and change the ROM to get to stock android. Slow to no OTA updates from Google.
Stock android with constant updates from Google as soon as they come out AND the stock experience. (Can still change the ROM)
I known this is a forum for the Sense HTC One, but what do you guys think? If you had this choice what would you do?
I just bought my HTC One a week ago, already having in mind that a Google Edition will be coming out, but as I don't live in the USA and given that it's going to be exclusive for the time being that wasn't such a big deal to me.
But I'm actually quite convinced that you are going to be able to switch from Sense to AOSP and vice versa, because they're the exact same hardware. Remember that tweak for the Optimus G that allowed you to basically turn it into a Nexus 4 from a software stand point? I'm sure there will be something similar to that and even if it's not supported officially, developers are going to find one way or another
I could even imagine something like an RUU to turn a regular One into a Google Edition. Well the 26th isn't that far away now, we'll see...
yes u will be able to switch roms

So there is ROM that will allow me to switch to Sense 5 if I buy a Google Edition HTC One?

There are several stock like roms with sense 5 in the android development section.
Read through and see which one suits you best.
Get the sense one. We already can change the phones identity so making it a Google edition shouldn't be any different

The HTC camera is enough of a reason for me not to care about

Just get either one, it doesn't matter much, to be honest. The Google Edition one has an unlocked bootloader and is probably S-OFF, and you can do both on the Sense edition as well. You can install any ROM you want on either one with no problems, whether sense-based or AOSP.
If u want a super nexus than this isn't the phone for you. Its not a nexus and never will be. I would go with the sense to get the great features. If you want stock it's better to get a nexus. (Just my opinion)

Having already bricked my phone trying to put Revolution HD on it, (no sprint support) I thought I'd ask what people are currently running and their opinions. Most of the roms in our Development section are mostly graphical changes it seems, and lighter versions of cleanROM.
Are there any roms that are really popular for us poor Sprint customers?
I've run OMJ's, Mack's Dark Horse and settled on d3rp. Love the mobile commander and bareback options.
I feel like we have plenty of options, don't feel left out at all.

I agree with the general sentiment, but if you want variety, have a go at the Original Development section. AOSP ROMs for this device are certainly out and about-- I didn't mind my experience with it (besides the then-prevalent sleep of death "bug").
Go to Sprint HTC One Android Development
Now go look at the views and mainly "replies" to each rom. That will give you a general idea of the favored roms. The method I use when getting a new phone or when a friend or family member comes over with a new phone and wanting a rom installed

It's under original because there is no other rom like it. No other rom has the customization tranquil one does. It's original work

Hello everyone, I am new to android but have been modding my iPhone since the beginning. I recently purchased my first android and its the HTC One. I rooted it and installed the Orio One Rom.
I was wondering if there is a way to have a different multitask launcher instead of the one that comes with Sense 5.0. I hate the stock one and have seen a DNA that I much prefer.
Any thoughts, thanks.
I was just curious why the rom from sprint or even Google itself have even a third of the features that say venom or bad boy rooms have? Is it a root thing or a too many options confuse people?

Good question. You should ask Apple why they just have calling, messaging and camera features mainly. No customizations allowed like in android. At least google allowed us to modify
When you see these ROMs and customizations these are not from google/htc. These are the genius brains among us who made our devices beautiful. Did you ever bought them a beer/coffee
I do appreciate all the awesome ideas from the rom devs. I have the paid venom thing from the play store to show my appreciation.

I'm running 2 different roms and am interested in installing HTC Sense 2 or 3 to my device. I am aware that Sense 8 or/and 9 are available to flash via TWRP/CWM ( currently have installed), but I really enjoy the older Sense versions more then the latest. That being stated, is there a way to install Sense 2 or Sense 3? I do have a HTC Boubleshot (Sense 3) and half a dozen of HTC Glaciers (Sense 2) with the Stock or stock rooted roms available. I do want the Stock HTC Sense experience and not a launcher from the play store as they are not the same by a long shot. Any information is strongly appreciated. Would like to make this my first XDA project. Thanks
I don't think it is possible. Sense 2 and sense 3 are really old and I too miss them sometimes. M7 shipped with sense 5 by default and it is lowest it can go. If there was a htc phone with similar hardware like m7 in 2011 or 2012 then we could port it to m7 but since there is no phone like that it can't be ported. When sense 6 arrived there was ported htc apps which worked on all devices and now with sense 8 and 9 there are even more htc apps which work on all devices no matter if it runs on sense, touchwiz or aosp based rom and can be installed without modifying any files. I remember back in sense 3 days there was no way to get almost any htc app to work on any non htc device without sense rom.
If you want to use sense 3 on m7 you have to use themed launchers or to buy older htc phone like sensation or desire hd.

As I stated, older devices I do have. Unfortunate, they can run on only edge even tho they are 4G devices. Isn't it only the sense framework that would be required to install and run? Let's bring up Team Venom And their Viper Roms

Sense framework is hard to port. It requires time and a lot bug fixing and resizing as sense 3 was never on full hd device. I don't think team venom will do it. They stopped development for m7 some time ago.
IIRC Sense 2/3 was for Android 2.1/2.2 and 2.3 (Eclair/Froyo and Gingerbread). Porting somethig from Lollipop to Gingerbread would be no small task....
