so far i have tried hero roms not a big fan of it
Check the dream Android development section take your pic of the 32b ROMses.
I say start with dwang cause its simple and fast. Flash a few others and see what you like.

With all the new roms out for 32A can anyone tell me which is pretty good.
I've narrowed it all down to the ones with Amon_RA's new kernel.
Basically there is Cyanogen 4.0.2, JacXHeroski v1.4 and Hyakuro 1.79.482.3.
I want a balance between features and speed. Been using jacheroski 2.7.4r2 but thats a bit out dated now...I think.
Any info is good
Thanks
What about Amon_RA's own rom based on Google ION. It's the fastest and stable if that is what you are lookng for.
Nah want a Hero rom. I also like the prettiness. Hence features.
This isn't really the right forum to be asking this. Read the sticky at the top of the forum.
That being said, Hero ROMs are mainly fairly slow, they are getting better and will get better as the 32A kernels get customized...but the Cupcake based ones, i think, are a better balance of speed and features.
Whats the developmental aspect of this thread??
None.........so please post in General.
Warning given.
JACxHEROski-v1.4 for 32A + Amon_RA's 1.0.1 kernel
So far there are very few problems with this and it is very fast.
Hello!
I bought a MyTouch 3G and I'm shopping for a new ROM. There are so many and I'm truly confused. What is the best Sense UI for the 32B and is it really worth it?
This forum has always been a hard to use source of information, so I'm asking your help and I will write a guide in return
i prefer SENSEHERO. its the fastest, smoothest hero out there. the theme is pretty sick too. you already have root though right? fyi, a lot of good 32B hero roms are actually in the dream section, i frequently browse both! because on here, its more 32A orientated.
From my experience ROMs with Rosie are not that fast on pvt 32b board. Donut 1.6 is still faster and more stable to me. Although I like the Hero Sense UI contact application.
i agree, when i had a g1 I really liked rosie/sense at first, but no matter how hard the geniuses here try, the g1 just doesnt have the RAM for sense ui, period. And TMobile inexplicably gave the MyTouch the exact same amount of RAM as the g1, so i havent bothered trying sense i got a mytouch. even TMO's newest Android only has 200mb RAM, still not enough for sense and it even lags with stock Android.
Id like to know the business strategy of testing their customer's faith and patience like this
What is the safest, fastest, nicest looking ROM that has has flash and most functionality for a 32B myTouch?
If you could give me some directions on the install that would be amazing too. I am not familiar with the hero rom process. I'd prefer it to be as simple as possible, just like Cyan's.
Thanks in advance!!
11 Days later and still nothing. I'm sure someone has some idea!
it depends on what you're looking for. There are plenty of 1.5 hero's. My personal favorites are Ttran001's 3.0 and Qtek's 1.7 or 1.8.
If you are looking for an eclair hero, look in the dream forums for a 32B. there are a few there, but they are not quite up to par yet and have some bugs including the camera does not work yet due to not having the drivers
just broke my phone, and now need to get either a dream or sapphire. but had some questions
dose the cam work on 2.0/ 2.0.1/droid or hero
dose the hero rom lag like it dose on the g1?
and when rooting do you have to use ADB because there is no keyboard?
thanks for any help on this.
Get a hero or droid
haha
just get a droid or a hero bro. Unless you're cool running cyan or some other 1.6-2.0 rom. Any hero on my mytouch hasnt proven to be a daily user. albeit im a novice at best, but if you're asking then i would assume you're no pro.
My two cents
there are several hero roms that are daily users here. The only problem is, it is not going to be as snappy as a modded-stock rom like Cyanogen. If you set your phone up right, there is no reason why most of these roms could not be daily users.
Qtek and Ttran001 have great 32B roms IMO that are great for daily use.
wouldnt say im a pro, just dont have the time anymore to keep up on everything, but i have been flashin roms on the g1 since the beginning. never got onto the sapphire boards, so just tryin to get some more info before i decide.
what i know is that the Sapphire has more ram than the g1 so that makes me wonder about the speed. I noticed that on some roms they dont use Swap when they are used with the 32a.
just wonderin more on what changes from one to another.
the 32B has the same ram as the G1. The 32A has the same ram as the Hero. That's why there is no need for the linux swap.
It all depends on the phone you are going to get. MyTouch and Google Ion, etc. are 32B. HTC Magic's are 32A.
ok well i guess the big question is dose the cam work on 2.0 roms?
im guessing that the cams are both the same but was looking at a 2.0 rom made for the sapphire only and it didnt say that it didnt work.
G1 or Sapphire
Is the sapphire as good as the dream as far as capabilities. I had a G1 and loved it but unfortunately i dropped it off a roof at work. I was pretty familiar with all the featres and was using a Cyan ROM. Is the sapphire as versatile as the Dream?
2.01 roms on saphire
I have been using manups 2.01 eclair rom on my saphire 32b for about a week now and have been quite surprised at the speed and funcitonality differences. Unfortunatly the camera does not work, but i am sure manup will fix this. But overall I am very happy with the saphire/mytouch.
i recommend the magic to you, it's just so much better looking than the dream. to help you with your rom questions: it's only a matter of time, til the first 2.0 oder 2.1 rom, which supports camera and all the other beautiful features, will be released. for now, i've been using "crusorsense"-rom (a sense-ui/"hero" rom) for about three weeks. it's the best rom i've ever seen! battery life and performance are even better than while using orignal rom.
There isn't any Android 2.0+ camera or bluetooth driver for the Sapphire yet. And we probably have to wait for a HTC update with those before any developers will make these work.
But why not get a NexusOne or a Droid instead ?

It depends what you expect from daily use ... I use bluetooth every day so it makes it impossible for me to use any hero roms.
As for Android 2.0 bluetooth is working and someone has the camera working in the dream development forum, they compiled their own driver using some of the 1.6 binary and a bit of guesswork and got it working, camcorder does not work yet but it won't be long before this makes its way to 2.0 roms (sapphire uses the same driver). The graphics acceleration still sucks though, making it jerky to swipe on launcher screens as well as anything else that uses gpu (which is what is stopping me from moving to a 2.0 rom)
I second what ronni.rasmussen said, why not get a Nexus One or Moto Droid? Or even an HTC Hero or Droid Eris. There are a lot of better handsets out now that leave the dream and sapphire a long way behind in terms of specs.
Btw sorry to be a nitpicking bastard but not all HTC Magic's are not 32A, it depends on where in the world you buy your phone and on what carrier. I have an HTC Magic and it is a 32B.
OK, so the MyTouch and the HTC Magic at Rogers (http://www.htc.com/us/support/magic-rogers/downloads/) look like exactly the same phone - but the rogers has had a 2.1 + Sense UI update and its faster than any other Sense UI rom here at xda.
What are the differences between these two phones? Can we port over the rogers 1.5 w/ Sense UI to get the fastest Sense UI rom on the MT3G?
Is it against the forum rules to ask a Rogers user for their serial number so I can download the update from HTC's website and work on porting it myself? If not, would anyone be willing to PM me their serial so I can get to work on it?
The thing is - speed has always been an issue with sense roms - the rogers has other bugs but maybe the speed increases would be enough for users to start using this rom (if we could cut it) and then we can fix all the bugs HTC won't fix in it. And yes, I know this is based off of 1.5 - but its also written specifically for similar hardware. - Granted, I understand the difference in RAM between the 32a and 32b devices (288 vs 192)
Isn't Cursorsense already based on the Rogers rom?
it is, but its been made for the 32A not the 32B, 32A has more ram than 32B so we need a smaller, less intensive rom like the rogers.

Giving HTC phones Sense is based on the phone provider; ROGERS decided to give HTC Magic users Sense UI, some other people are not so lucky as each provider wants to customize each ROM to their own liking (adding their own apps, wallpapers, boot up screens, etc) and some want to add new features like Sense.
I hope people also realize that the update ROGERS put out was NOT 2.1. People have to stop thinking this; the ROM is still 1.5 and the 2.1 update is supposed to be coming out soon.
If you want a Sense UI, download one of the 1.6+ ROMS, ROGERS was a good ROM while I had it but there was too many bugs in the ROM itself; there are probably better, faster ROMS already out there that are vastly superior to ROGERS ROM.

The OP clearly stated he know it was 1.5...
To OP:
The ROM is a 32A designed ROM. I don't think any amount of tweeking will make it run better on a MT3G to be frank.

The original post has an edit; I didn't see the last part until after my post.
Best Rom
search for binary100100 he ported a rom too the 32a (fender/1.2) but it is a g1 port with support for the mytouch original and the new ones as well as all the g1's out there..
on my friends g1 it boots in about 1 minute 30sec
and on my 1.2 it boots in under a min..
anyways its like KiNGxKlickDroidEris2G1 just search for it or look for Binary100100 who ported it and he has a link to the original thread
Dude... the thread is from may 2010!!!!!
the rom runs flawlessly, it boots nicely, nd with the CR_Slide OC it works even faster, the kernel frm the overclock puts my 1.2 mytouch at 845mhz
with an already stable nd speedy sense rom!!!
damn its fast with that kernel its booting faster than ever
