Figured i find out which roms you guys out there have tried and what your experience have been,
For myself
i have tried out any i can find but have always wiped cleaned, and found that the most stable from my experience has been
5.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N15.0.3.1-N1
any thoughts and or comments are appreciated
and thank guys working on roms
for all your work
regards,
M3manny
Stock ROM... no issues at all...
Sense UI/Cyanogen..currently running Cyanogen till Sense UI gets cleaned up
Normally, I am one to root as soon as it is unboxed, however, with this phone, I have not rooted it yet.
Mainly for the fact that it is working so well, I can't see why...
Now, I LOVE the dev's here and WILL root my phone once some of these ROM's are a bit more stable. I'm not saying they are bad, just that the features I use regularly are not working as well as I would like based on feedback.
As always though, the Dev's here step up and do a fantastic job getting things done and working, I will be compelled to root and mod... I can't wait for that day!

Thanks for letting me know... I'll be sure to watch for ya...
In all seriousness though, the stock ROM, at the moment, has its benefits over those that are out now.
Mainly, everything works (at least for me).
BT, Wi-Fi, Camera/Flash, sync and the list goes on and on...
Once ERE36B is release OTA, I am sure most of these custom ROM issues will clear up and there will be more reason to root and flash.
For now, just going to keep watching the forums.
I made it a whole day on the Desire Alpha 10, but the battery life was killing me. I really like the HTC Exchange integration and all the Sense widgets, but there were too many other trade offs.
I'm back on cynanogen. It's not flashy but everything works.
Not trying to Convince you to root your phone, or make an argument here, but in my own experience. The custom N1 ROMs that are up for grab right now are pretty stable. It does everything the stock ROM can do and more. Heck even Modaco's alpha version of the desire ROM is near perfect.
As far as picking my favorite though, of have to give it up to Enomther, and Cyanogen's N1 ROMs and Modaco's Desire ROM.
Can't thank these guys enough and all the devs here, that's making this a fun ride for all of us!

I want to switch from a N1, but I don't see any custom roms w/ 2.2 yet... Any guess as to an eta? Thanks
They have only just started development on CM6 for the Vibrant and I haven't seen anything about anyone working on 2.2 yet.
Development progress is located: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=729364
CM6 is 2.2... and there is never really an ETA, when it's done.. its done.
Yeah they are just slowly starting, as they are finishing up the worlk on the slide still.
Did you read the sticky attached to this sub forum?
always remember that one of cyans rules are to never ask the eta =)

2.2 will be here soon enough. CM6 is in the early stages. Read some of the threads and you'll have your question answered a hundred times over.
I'm sure stock 2.2 will be out before CM6. So, Just wait. I think the phone works just fine on 2.1

Uhm. no? CM6 will be released before stock 2.2
And it doesnt matter if the phone works "fine" on 2.1, it'll work 20000x (okay exaggerated) better because of JIT, Adobe Flash Player and all of the other features added

Cause its fascinating, otherwise, whats the purpose of being on these forums? I've been flashing bleeding edge stuff for years!
I dig touch wiz, didn't think I would. Just replaced launcher with adw, and goodnto go. Samsung music app with 5.1 surround and Eq is really neat, love it. Messaging is awesome looking, but if you're texting lots of people, it starts to lag and bad. That's my only complaint here.
Rule number 1, you don't talk about ETAs.
Rule number 2, you do not talk about ETAs!
Rule number 3 questions go in the general question area.
Rule number 4 CM6 will be at the top of the development folder once its good to go, the phone has been in the CM dev's hands for a whole day now, relax, and keep an eye out, I guarantee it'll be waiting for you.
On a Vibrant, using this app-thingy

First step is a bootloader for rom backup and restore.
That seems to be done, people say its stable, so after enough people play with that, I'd expect the roms to flow.
I see custom kernels already discussed, so I'd expect new full roms to show up by next weekend.

Your expectations are very high.
I only say this because a custom recovery was never needed for custom roms. You can throw custom roms on the phone with odin. So a custom recovery doesn't mean much.

New ROMS based on what??? We have HTC Sense ROMs for Eclair 2.1 and Froyo 2.2 and AOSP CM 6.1. What else are you looking?
Personally I hate visiting the other device forums because everybody and their brother has 'cooked' up another ROM (mostly just new themes or added favorite apps). IMO who has time to stiff through all the various ROMs and threads? I find it much easier to review 3 different ROM threads and try to help others than to try and go through 10 or 15 threads and seeing messages such as 'well this worked on this ROM but it doesn't on that ROM, why not?'
OK, I'll get off my soap box now...
I agree. Plenty of good variety in the ROMs we have.

There's nothing wrong with that actually. Sometimes it's a good thing because there are more people developing towards something greater. We have 1 or 2 guys doing all this work. There are some pretty badass ROMs for the more popular phones out there. If we had more people developing and cooking, we'd no doubt have something better than what we have even now.
Screw those giant phones.
But a little more ROMS would be cool, we just need more people with the Aria.
It's not a bad phone...hah.

it's not a bad thing that we may only have 3 roms, but they are actually good quality roms, not just thrown together, and they are constantly being updated, but it would be kool if they had more help with them.

I recently rooted and installed CM6.1.0RC2, and only thing I'd say it's missing is Flash Lite compared to Sense. Wish there was a way to get Flash Lite on CM, sadly not possible. Still loving CM though. Might test Sense again when there's an official Froyo update from AT&T and attn1 has taken out all the bloatware.

That's right folks- get your supercharged Froyo sense goodness now with the newer kernel source released by HTC for the HTC legend. Everything works as far as I know, except for the built in wifi hotspot app for which we have replaced with the working Wireless Tether app thanks to the work of shakerhero. Final thanks go to attn1 and jznomoney for their hard work on the CM kernel, ladios for bundling up the kernel, trackpad wake fix, and wireless tether in a single, proper package.

I have been looking into 2.3 Rom and there are few out there as of today that include gingerbread. I am not sure which is best, what would be recommended by users experience.
I did take a look at the Wiki Page about roms and browsed through the pages.
I would like to get some feedback from you guys that already updated their roms to what would you recommend and pros and cons that you found.
Thank you
Cyanogenmod 7 is the undisputable best. No other ROM will work as flawlessy. A manufacturer could not have written a better ROM. It's perfect in every aspect. If it's your first time messing with ROMs then I would suggest this one because otherwise you will have issues with other ROMs. Besides every function works for CM7. GPS, camera, 4g, etc...
Deck's or Salvage mod are the way to go.

You are telling me that those ROMs work as perfect as CM7? I don't believe it.
Depends on your preference. Sense or aosp? A lot of them still have some bugs but if you search the forums you can find fixes. Just make sure to make a backup before you flash! What may work great for you might not for someone else due to different hardware and what not. Trial and error is the only way!

My aosp daily is Kings out of this world and my daily sense is Evolvedrom shifted. I second JRE77 though. My phone doesn't like certain roms that work great on another phone. Just use RA recovery, have a good working backup, wipe everything and flash away. You'll find one. Half the fun of being rooted is trying a bunch a different roms. Lord knows I have and still do even though I have my daily drivers
If your new to roms I would try CM7 first. I personally prefer myn's stuff because I like sense better.

Try out CM9.
It's pretty popping fresh.
Also, MIUI.
And in the future, we discourage best ROM threads.
Depends on how you use your phone. CM9 beta 0 is stable for a daily ROM. But If your a power user like on your phone nonstop then you will find yourself wanting a charger.
Also gotta ask the question to you want to move to the MTD side.... best bet is to read up on everything, then test out different roms till you find one that you like.
Sent from a CM9 powered Epic.
If you want a good stable Rom the marcusant rom version3 and the shake and bake theme are a nice combo. Also cm9 is also kinda nice but its still in beta
Threads are long because everyone is trying to butt hurt everyone else, and there are a lot of useless postings (such as this one). Just be sure whatever rom you use has the appropriate thanks, documentation and GPL reference or you will get blasted even as just a user.
Just try them all, go nuts, have fun! Just be sure to do whatever you can to brick your device so you can provide yourself with the logical reasoning to upgrade as quickly as possible.
Sent from my, is it safe to claim, personally semi-tweaked (but not shared) and still therefore kanged??? sammiEpic running some CM9b0 shiznizzle.....
Thanks to all that offered good advise and options.
And to clarify a few points:
1 - I did not ask what was the best ROM (I know better than that).
2 - I respect the advise of the users here and do not wish to try them all. It simply takes too much time when all the ROMs say to wipe everything clean including data. It's a very long process putting everything back the way it was. The last 2 updates I did did not update my programs so I had to install them all manually plus their data. And as some of you may know, restoring from backup is not always a good thing to do.
So... I really appreciate those that provided a few options for me to try. Will do soon. And btw I alway provide feedback to the thread on the ROMs that I try. Comes from being a technology administrator for many years.
Thanks again,

In order for someone to answer this you have to let people know how you use your phone. Are you hooled on the Touchwiz interface? Then it would require some work and getting similiar apps for CM7, CM9 or any other AOSP ROM. If you just want to update to the newer firmware and like how your phone is running now, then Sleeper or CleanGB. If you need more app space then you want to go to an MTD ROM like CleanGB MTD. At least read the OP's of any ROM you are considering to know all the features.

What is this vertical scrolling? Bloatware???" So yeah, beta 0 seems good enough for me for now, plus the battery life is way better than stock.
CM9 for sure. The only real issue was the phantom voicemail but there is a fix for it now (as of today).
Loving the CM9. It's like a new phone!

Tried CM9 and it was allot more stable than I expected. However it still needs work and is not as solid as stock. The lag overall started to annoy me along with other things like garbled text messaging, 4G issues, occasional reboots, and no visual voicemail, but the devs are doing a great job.
I am on Clean GB right now and will jump back to Thunderhawk when Random updates to El30.
Dont flame my opinion, please.

Hmm, No. I tried the RC0, but not the Beta. I think I am picky and just need everything to work as good as stock or better.
