What is the best ROM right now in your opinion for the Magic/Sapphire/MT?
I currently have the hero 1.5 ROM and am thinking about upgrade since i keep hearing about the new hero 2.1 ROM.
I have a 32A btw, Thanks for any responses!
In my opinion, the best rom is the one that i settled on after trying all the ROMs that were interesting to me.
Didn't really answer my question but i see what you are saying...
hands down CyanogenMod latest version. its fast stable.

Hey guys. Been off the scene for a while.
Which are the fastest, most stable ROMs out there now? I know cyanogen, but now I see ROMs coming up with Donut + Hero, are there any good ones for 32A?

There is no such thing as "best rom" since we all have difference requirements for our mobile. Just find a rom there will cover your needs and decide what you think is best for yourself
Hi WaterMan
Welcome back.
I am currently torn between CaSense 1.1.1 and Magic GyD 2.1.1.
Both are excellent ROM's. I don't use Bluetooth so I usually flash the 2.6.29 kernel, which is faster than the 2.6.27 kernel.
Both are fast and equal in functionality, but for some reason the Magic GyD seems a little heavier on memory resources, but I have not experienced any problems with speed or lag on either of them.
And both ROM's are, in my opinon/experience, bugfree.
Hope this helps!
EDIT: These are of course Sense ROMs. Magic GyD also offer a nonSense ROM, but I have not tried it. I'm a Sense-addict.
I searched for the best rom. There are a lot of ROM' s, I am some confused. Which is the best for now for Eclair? I cannot wait for HTC anymore.
And are there any information about how to install a new ROM?
none of the ecliar roms will work perfectly untill the devs can get hold of the hero build, best advice is wait for htc
Hello,
I'm really sorry to ask such a dumb question, but its really hard for me to see the advantages between the thousands of different ROMs out there. I'm still using the old 1.48 ROm version and I want to update to something new. But I don't know to which ROM?
Is there maybe something like a ranking? Like most people use this ROM, 2nd place this etc.? Which are the most popular ones? best ones?
I know this is always subjective but for the moment some hints would help me.
Thanks a lot!!
do you mean a stock rom or a cooked rom
i have xannytech evo 1.4 its good.. i have tried alot of roms but i think xannyi the best..

The Skyy,
Sorry but we don't do Best Rom threads any more. The best ROM is the one that works best for you.
My advice is either to stick with the stock roms from HTC or, if you are interested in cooked roms, read the features of each ROM in the Rom Dev forum, try a few, weigh them all up then make up your own mind.
Good luck with it

Hey guys,
New to the forum
I've had my HTC HD2 for about 2-3 months now, and recently its been running really slow and crashing all the time.
Now I was wondering, would it be wise for me to upgrade to the latest ROM, or Android?
Thank's in advance.

welcome. you can have both - new rom and android. i would do that!
The HD2 is an awesome phone, you honestly won't find much better stuff out there.
Don't run the stock winmo rom, it's crap. Flash a custom rom and install android, which imo is much better. Soon we will have a nand version of android on our phones making it just as quick in android as native android phones.
Thank you for the replies guys.
Now off to find tutorials lol
Any recommendations?
lots of reading!!!!
Start with updating your info so we know where you are located and what carrier you have.
There are 3 versions of the hd2.
Euro version
Aussie version
T-mobile usa version
I would read here for a tutorial on flashing custom ROMs for the t-mobile hd2:

For all others:

To flash a custom ROM you need to hspl unlock your phone.
go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
This will unlock all versions of the hd2.
For Android, the best 2 radios are usually 2.10 and 2.12 found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
These radios will work on all phones and are usually good radios for all ROMs. You need a .50 radio to flash most of the custom ROMs not to mention to run Android so might as well install one of these.
Next go here and pick out a ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
Most ROMs are compatible with all phones. Make sure if you have a tmous phone, not to flash any radio that has .51 in it. To run android you need .50 radios anyways.
I would suggest these ROMs as good ROMs to run android from:

and then finally, the Android builds that run from your SD card are here:

I have personally only used this Android ROM as I have found Android to be too much like IOS and only really find the web browser to be better than WinMo:

I really think that you should start with a custom ROM, get to know it, get to know about flashing before jumping into Android, but hey, it's your phone. How many other phones can dual boot?
Alternatively, you can flash the latest Stock ROM from HTCs website.
The stock ROM isn't necessarily crap, its usually down to opinion.
I use an O2 stock ROM, and have no performance issues.

I agree on the fact that the Stock Hd2 ROM isn't crap at all: if anything its the perfect one for me (so far)
I've tried the energy rom, the mirri rom, basic wm rom and all of them didn't do it for me looks wise.
All I really want is the basic 9 apps (iPhone style that I am used to) as my homescreen so I really don't need a ROM outside of wanting to find one with even better battery life. The Hd2's battery life has been great so far for me but is there a rom out there that is even better?
nrfitchett4,thanks thats really helpful
Hi,
at the moment I use a LG GT540 Optimus, with a modded Gingerbread ROM based on the latest CyanogenMod. Well, I'm looking for a new phone and I find the HTC Legend very nice.
Even I haven't got it yet (will buy one in the next weeks), I'm asking myself which is the best ROM. I know that the HTC Legend is official supported by the CM7.1. But why are there so may custom MODs with other kernels? Which are most famous ROM projects for the HTC Legend and what are there advantages?
Also I'd like to know which ROM runs most stable?
Thanks
Right now I am with ogo2's RC4b Gingerbread 2.3.3 with HTC Sense 2.1+. Very beautiful ROM, also very fast, but still unstable ( random reboots, etc. ).
But still, I can offer you to go to the Development Area (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=610) and see the amount of available ROMS and read user's reviews
There is no such thing as the best Rom.
Try them and find out.
Every developer puys an effort to give a good Rom.
No point in this
