I understand that everyone's builds are different and with different tweaks and apps but what are the primary differences between Cupcake, Ion and Roger's based Roms?
I come from a Windows Mobile background and I know the different sys files in a rom made a world of differences from performance to features, is this the same with Android?

Thats the best answer you will get, it tells you everything you need to know.
Oh and obviously the rogers rom is only for rogers .

That's the only answer I have gotten through PMs and it is not what i am asking.
I understand the difference between the different Rom builds but what is the difference between 3 Roms with the same tweaks and apps but 1 is Ion based, 1 is cupcake based and ,1 is roger's based (and I am running a Rogers Rom on Tmob so they are not only for Rogers )

Isn't Rogers still cupcake based?
They're all "cupcake based." The Ion version runs quick, but lacks the T-mobile features of AmazonMP3 and the IM that has Yahoo, AIM and MSN. Rogers adds Exchange support to that (and isn't only for Rogers).

So then if I understand correctly ion just strips down the rom and optimizes the build and rogers just adds some other support (exchange) but they are all basically the same as far as abilities and features?
What is the difference between the HTC and Google builds? I recall HTC and Microsoft having 2 separate development trees for WM6.5. Is this similar?
Thanks for the help guys, I have limited Linux experience but tons of WM experience and have had the G1 for 3 weeks now. I am still trying to wrap my head around the structure and organization of the Roms.

The only differences you will really see betweek the two are the Dialer, Camera, VK, some marble game, and a PDF viewer.
I think thats all...
None of these responses really answer the first posters question. Those links are all great for showing the different features but it would be great for someone to post something that will help us understand just what those charts even mean. For example, one of the sites, Androidspin is fantastic as a chart for picking your ROM but it assumes already that you know what cupcake, doughnut, rogers, hero... is. Here in Utah, I had no idea that Rogers was a carrier. I thought it was a model of HTC phone?
Can someone explain all the different terms. Something like (pulling out of my butt cause I'm in the dark here)
Physical phones:
Dream
Magic
Hero
Operating systems:
cupcake
rosie
doughnut
Carriers:
Rogers
T-Mobile
Cyanogenmod = great for speed but lacks features
JacHeroski = based on Hero, yadda yadda yadda..
There are so many different ROM's I'm totally lost as to which one I would want to load on my G1 that is fast, stable and has lots of great features.
Man, all I can say is spend a few hours on these boards and read the stickies
Im not trying to be a **** by any means... Its just that at this point theres so many different flavors of Android out there that it would take us longer to explain it as opposed to you just readin those posts.
As far as:
Operating systems:
cupcake
rosie
doughnut
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
is concerned... In short Android is the overall OS... Cupcake is the first of many updates to the operating system which included things such as soft keyboard, MMS attachment save, etc. Rosie has NOTHING to do with Android, rather its an update created by HTC to lay over the existing home screen and provide some nice eye candy. Donut is the latest update on the verge of being released.

Hi guys
After reading around the forum a bit, it seems some people were in similar situations as me, but I still don't have a definite answer.
I have been using a HTC Dream for about a year, and have been an avid fan of cyanogenmod. Although I like the fact that it's rooted and I can install any ROM i liked, I stuck with cyanogen because:
1. It's extremely stable
2. It's well established - they guys got their own site, a central location for all ROM info, all files are found in the same place, they continuously update the ROMs and it pretty much always gets better
The above points for me were reason enough to not even bother with any other ROM. I bought a HTC HD2 a few days back, and I now want to have the phone dual boot Android. What android rom is as good as cyanogen, where "good" is defined by my points above? I know there is a ported cyanogenmod rom, but how well does the port work, will it be updated often as new cyanogenmods get released, etc? Also, I'm no fan of nightly builds, so I don't want a port based on a nightly build - it must either be experimental, release candidate or stable. I also want to stick with the ROM I choose, so it should be continuously updated for the foreseeable future..
First of all, you say you don't want nightly builds, but experimental is okay? Not exactly following, but hey.
There are a couple of CM based roms, if i'm not mistaken 3 are still being maintained:
-JDMS
-HD2ONE
-Mychiprima's (not sure if I'm spelling his name right here) build, it doesn't really have a name (thread contains "htc_linux_wince" at the very beginning)
Mychiprima's builds are based on the autobuild, and are therefor not checked and may contain bugs. JDMS and HD2ONE however are being thoroughly checked & optimized by the respective chefs, so I don't really see a point in not trying them.
Still, if you really want builds based on CM-stable there's always shubcraft and hyperdroid, but both have been discontinued for some weeks already, so you won't get the recent optimizations.

Thanks for that info. When I said experimental, I meant their beta versions - maybe my terminology is a bit wrong, but I know with the Dream, sometimes they used to release a beta version, then a RC, then a stable. From my understanding nightly builds were often buggy as they weren't tested. I'l have a look at those ROMs you suggest though. Aside from cyanogen, are there any other ROMs you think fit my two point criteria I gave in my first post?

I assumed that's what you meant, but RC's and nightlies are both just called experimental.
It's true nightlies as such aren't tested, because they are autobuilt. But the code that goes into it (in modules) does get tested first, so you'll usually have a nice working rom. (I'm talking about officially supported CM devices now, I already said how we do it with HD2).
There are other established builds (on HD2, you don't call them Android ROMs, but builds, because they run from sd card. ROMs are WinMo) yes, MDJ's got a whole series but I'm not a big fan of Sense myself. They're pretty popular though!

Ah i see. Thanks man - I got a lot to learn
This is a request to all the developers developing for HD2, If you want a fully working, fully stable build on HD2 with top performance you would have to stop treating your device as Bravo, everywhere i look from recoveries to kernel i see Bravo, Evo, Passion. For God's sake the phone is different from all other snapdragon phones.The display, the drivers etc are different. Also please stop keeping the source of your edited files to yourself, if you open source them, they can be improved upon and HD2 can be made faster and better device. Also developers thing beyond overclocking. There are other things HD2 needs in the kernel. If you waste your energy in just overclocking then i would say its pretty dumb. Just a kind request to everyone. Your device is htcleo/leo not bravo/passion/supersonic. They are similar but not same. use htcleo as device name in build, init rather than bravo/passion/supersonic. Your device isnt a mix of device anymore, its a different device that stands apart
im not a dev but ... yes , is time when all work must be unified.
+1 on this.
All devs should work together and share their results.
Bump.
This thread needs to be looked at and acknowledged. Charansingh is trying hard to get our device working to its best possible method and not just patch everything constantly. If some kernel developers (Tytung, rafpigna, iamgpc, etc.) set up conversations with charansingh, I'm pretty sure all outstanding issues could be worked on and we could even fix issues we didn't know we had. Come on, devs! Work together to bring our HD2s to truly compete with android devices out there as a native solution!
Definitely worth a bump
Super bump. Seems like a lot of these roms are sort of half-baked ports of other devices. It's extremely difficult to find a stable rom to use as a daily driver. Coming from the Nexus One, the difference in rom development is staggering. If you go to the Nexus forum you can find tons of stable, fully functional roms optimized for the Nexus. I still haven't found a rom that's come close to the usability, speed, and stability of those for the Nexus. I don't mean to knock t he devs on the board, because they do great work, but I think the HD2 has the potential to be amazing.
Just my 2 cents.

The Nexus is a native Android device. Of course the ROM development will be different. It's a miracle we have Android on the HD2 at all. It was always going to be a painful development process. That said, wise words from charnsingh.
Keep rocking, Devs.
I'm not a dev, and this topic is not addressed to me but I think you should correct the name of the thread to "A request to All developers' except Pongster. Perhaps not only Pongster but I'm sure that He uses the real name our phone in bulid.prop for example and His bulid's it's not just a port from Bravo, Evo etc, etc. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Have you bothered checking the source I use? and the device specific stuff by charan for the HD2 in there? I don't use the desire base. The source of the ROM is something any device can use, given the right kernel and proprietary libs the device may need. Just like CM7 is not just for the HD2, but for a myriad of different devices, the source can be used by anyone with the right device specific stuff.
In my ROM, I use the device specific stuff that charan has done for CM7 HD2 (with a few edits for GBX overlays and HD2 specific Settings).
Like charan has mentioned, most of what we currently have here (ROMs) are ports/kangs from other devices. In fact my old SD build was one of them.
His hard work paved the way for a device specific ROM, that being the CM7 RC's he builds (and you can build, which I also do for testing, from source) and the GBX I build now. If you take the source and add the device specific stuff (drivers, ramdisk, kernel, libs) you can build a ROM for other devices using the the device specific stuff available in the CM7 git. (Desire HD, Nexus One, etc. can be built using the source on Git)
As I understand it, from my limited knowledge on this, the device specific stuff is where the difference lies, from the 2D and 3D drivers, to the overlays for every device, down to the kernel for each device.
I don't know much about the kernel development at this point and how we came about using what we do now, but there is definitely room for improvement and we're lucky to have charan, tytung and the rest of the HD2 devs to help us out in this regard.

Hes right,we have to treat our HD2 like a native android device otherwise were not gonna advance that far if we treat it like anougher device.Our HD2s are amazing so lets advance and be happy
I'm in no way a dev, but its great to see common sense prevailing. I wish I had more time to get my head into these ROM's/kernal's etc but I don't. And I for one am eternally grateful for all the hard work done on this site to keep the likes of me interested in the HD2. It's a crackin phone, lets keep it that way!
i agree with you in lots of things but some roms just have to be ported.
htc won´t release a sense build for the hd2 or just a rom to get ported.
guys that want sense just need a ported rom.
and sorry buti dont´t think this is right in the development section.
maybe you should contact them on irc
I agree it would be nice if everything was done just for the LEO, but Im not going to say anything bad about Typoon his ports rock, are uber stable, and anything but half baked.
The reason why the bravo/passion base is used is:
a) Some apps only show up on the android market for known official Android devices. The LEO is not an official Android device.
b) There's no official/main AOSP/CM7 repository with LEO specific changes in them.
EDIT: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_leo I guess this can be the closest thing to official.
c) In terms of compatibility, the bravo is the hardware closest to our own hardware. Yes there ARE differences which is expected. We do not have a ROM designed for our own hardware that we can refer to.
d) Sense ROM's aren't open source.
I completely agree on the overclocking front. We need improvements in kernel, not just kicking up the CPU clock-speed.
Yes, sources should be shared, however, chefs tend to keep changes to themselves. This is an issue.
In my opinion, an 'official' AOSP/CM7 ROM/repository would be ideal.
That said, I can't think of any bugs/issues now with bravo/passion based ROM's Most issues stem from using ROM's from other devices/chipsets. I'm personally happy with GingerBread based on Passion sources!

Hello,
I'm pretty new to custom ROMs, searched for a while the forum and other source and came to the conclusion that CM7/9, Splashmod and rempuzzle are by far the most popular ROMs for the HTC Wildfire. However, very rarely I found information about the advantages or reasons to choose one over the others.
Hence, could you guys using the ROMs above briefly explain what has driven your decision for that particular ROM?
Thanks!
CyanogenMod7:
Gingerbread 2.3.7
Highly customizable
Lots of themes to choose from
Pretty stable
CyanogenMod9
ICS 4.0.4
A bit less customizable
Lots of themes to choose from
Sorta stable
Rempuzzle
Froyo 2.2.1
Rock solid stability
In my tests, faster than CM7/9
HTC Sense (If you want it)
Can't really vouch for Splashmod, as I've never used it.

I've started with CM7 when I rooted my Willy, used the stable first and also nightlies, RC's etc. later. I didn't try out many ROM's as I didn't have much time to make a lot of experiments and I've been pretty much satisfied with CM7.
At the moment I'm on the LeWa port which I like much as it feels snappier and faster than CM7. Going to try the Mokee OS port when I find the time as it looks good, too.
In general I'd like to mention a few things (to give you an idea which direction to look first):
CM7 is the most stable ROM. Reasons: it's not only a port but a true ROM developed (also) for the Buzz, huge professional developer community, huge user community, short update frequency, clean structure etc.
Most ROM ports for the Buzz are based on CM7.
CM7 and ports are faster (because lighter) than sense based ROMs (although I've read reports that Rempuzzle was pretty fast, too - but I don't have any personal experience with sense based ROMs)
CM9, although already working and stable, could still be considered as experimental. ICS has been developed for devices with a GPU which our Willy doesn't have - that can't be just discussed away or worked around without any shortcomes.
Sense based ROMs (if I'm not mistaken) are all on Froyo until this point.
There's a lot more to know for sure - but perhaps it's already some basic knowledge to work with.
I'd like to mention that there are some even more basic things, like custom mtd partitions. If you want to tweak performance from the ground up (and don't plan to use a sense based ROM) you seriously should think about it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233340
I'm sure that a few others will give their impressions and suggestions, too. If you have any questions you can't find answers in the forum: this is a small but still very active community
Thanks for your replies.
As for ICS roms, am I right that the most popular ones are the unofficial CM9, AOKP Milstone 6 Port and [v4] KoolMIUI 2.6.8 Beta 1?

It depends lot upon the developer,aokp has been well maintained by tathanhlam66(forgive me if mis spelled) but its not necessary to rebase it on every cm9 release.I guess he will rebase it once a major cm9 update is out.

All ROMs use LineageOS's shamu kernel and device code, so you won't see much of a difference.
I've used several Android 10 ROMs, including LOS, and have settled on crDroid because it has a lot of customisation (though in itself that's normal) but also Face Unlock, which I really like. Other ROMs may also have it - I haven't checked. Overall I agree with Elektroschmock - since they use the same code base you'll find it difficult to find huge differences. They have all been stable for me - just Face Unlock made the difference for me, but I reckon you'll be happy with pretty much any one of them.
Edit after three days. Right, that's it for me. I'm taking my own advice. This is definitely the last time I'll offer any help or support to a junior member. I'm done with their lack of interest in answers.

So "Android Development" is the right place for most ROMs as the only thing they do is rename some LineageOS stuff.

I was just answering his question.
I was answering with Android 10 ROMs in my mind.
If you do a proper Android 11 bringup for shamu, it would be justified to post it in original development.
And Yes I would use your repositories - thats the spirit oft open source. But I suspect they are in a state where it's better to keep them closed as I do with mine.
I love full gestures in Android 10, so I tried several roms to find the smoothest one with full gestures on: Lineage, crDroid, Pure Pixel, Carbon. All with original kernels, nanoGapps and some 20 apps of mine installed.
The smoothest performance over time I found with Pixel Experience, using Lawnchair2 as a home launcher.
Cheers
PS: all of them roms run super smooth if you do not use full gestures, and each has its super nice tweaks
