Leanest ROM for Sprint Hero?

What's the leanest ROM out there for a Sprint Hero? By lean, I mean no Sense UI, no Sprint apps, but still full Android, all the hardware works, Market works, etc.
Is there one? If there is more than one, what seems to be people's faves?

That would be AOSP 1.6, and you need to flash the google bits as well.

The most current, leanest rom is Darchdroid, it's about as vanilla as you're gonna get.

But really, Regawmod is pretty good with the lack of things installed and being lean with still having sense...

Try Ic3Rom. It looks exactly like AOSP but has the speed of DamageControl and the stability of a HTC rom.

I just finished installing darthvanilla. it's pretty slick. thanks

So far it's pretty sweet. Been using it a day now. The only thing it seems to be missing that is of any consequence to me is the voicemail downloader app. There is no YouTube app either, but the .apk is linked in the thread for the ROM if you're into that. Myself not so much.

You are referring to the Sense UI. You must choose a rom that keeps the Sense UI that the Eris comes with.
The Sense-able or Evil Eris roms are ideal, but the Senseless and Cyanogen roms do not include it.
This is the fundamental debate on roms - Sense or No-Sense...

And can someone please move this to the Apps forum? I thought I was originally posting in there, but alas, I was not.

Whoa partner, slow your roll with the hash comments. No need for negativity toward the hard work done by some great devs!
Plus, you are missing the point. The many helpful devs posting above ^ have stated that you cannot install the Sense components onto a non Sense based rom. It just won't happen...

Okay, I apologize if I have offended anyone with my "blue" comment, but personally I enjoy the natural green glow of the android.
Okay, thanks for the clarification. I just wish there was somehow a ROM with everything I want.

there are alot of good sense based roms out there...you just need to use one of those ....and if you are not fond of the colors ...try using a theme to change it up....

other sense based roms (that i can think of right now)
senseable
evil eris
aloysius (very themeable)
kaoslegendary
ivans official
ZenExp (very nice build)

No sense widgets exactly, but you can grab Beautiful Widgets from the Market which are pretty as well.

I think Beautiful Widgets was actuall y the first thing I paid for on android

I used them before back when I first got my phone. They really seemed to lag me up. I might give them a shot again when I install White Widow/Senseless.

Fastest ROM "on the Market" (2010)

Hey everyone back again with another poll for 2011 results on January 1st, 2011 of what ROM is the fastest ROM period. We ARE NOT talking battery life or anything else just PURE PERFORMANCE. So post your your vote by stating:
- what ROM you are using
- what kernal
- overclock speed
- JIT or No JIT
- and any other things you may have applied to get peak performance from the HTC Hero

Umm Really? In Development?
Let the Flames Begin!!!!

Yea. Definitely wrong section bro. Throw this in the general section.
Does the user have the option to close a thread?

the BEST part of this threads location is that it was actually MOVED here, into development!!! from themes and apps!!!! WTF.

when I get on my laptop later ill move it into general section lol sorry I can not delete the threads on my phone lol

I think you are better off with whatever ROM you have right now... atleast till you learn to read.

Not according to the logs, which say it was originally posted here...

okay after getting the moving and deleting situated its time to get this show on the road....i'll kick it off
after trying damagecontrol, fresh 2.4.0, and liquidsense 2.1 stable my vote goes to.....
ROM - LiquidSense 2.1 Stable
Kernal - Zen's AnyKernel with no Perflock
JIT - N/A
Other Performance Additions - N/A
this by far is the fastest in my opinion....if this rom ends up tying with another rom then i'll go into DEEP explanation as to why i think this is the fasest "on the market" in our debate between the top 2 if there ends up being a tie (btw roms are NOT available on the market i'm just saying that as like the fastest rom available lol )

that thread "was never there" in the themes and apps or in the android development sub forum....what are you talking about?
but back to the main topic

I believe Cyanogenmod with Braninfuct kernel is the fastest. Cyanogenmod has much better Graphic drivers than that of any HTC sense rom, which makes the performance much better.

I can respect your opinion so we have two votes now

aospMod is easily the fastest ROM I've ever used. Definitely faster than CM6.1, which I've also used. I don't even need to OC it or anything.

It's OC'd by default. lol. Every hero rom with a custom kernel is oc'd.

Correct. I meant not OC'd above what it is by default, which is 691mhz I believe.

I have used a lot of different ROMs and so far the fastest has been NFX stock ROM. CM6.1 was very nice but had moments of lag. I keep a Nandriod of it because I want it be my ROM of choice but when ever I actually you it, I get frustrated and go back to NFX.

that is why I love liquid sense b/c IT IS NFX's stock Rom just otimized by NFX and others to make the Rom as fast as possible

What is 'Frost'

I've been seeing a lot of talk around the forums about this ROM called 'Frost', what exactly is it? Gingerbread? AOSP? Someone please explain to me! Thank you.

themed 2.2.1 by teamwhiskey

Yea its a theme built for the 4g Rom 2.2.1
Currently running ______________! (<----Insert Rom Name Here)

Frost is the solid deposition of water vapor from saturated air.

The cold white stuff one finds in a freezer.

warning don't install frost on your vibrant it will "freeze" your vibrant to a frosty goodness

Frost= What's between My exwifes legs

in physical science, froze/freezing or solidification is the process in which a liquid turns into a solid when cold enough. The freezing point is the temperature at which this happens. Melting, the process of turning a solid to a liquid, is almost the exact opposite of freezing.

I haven't seen it or used it obviously, but I can tell you with a reasonable amount of certainty it's not a "theme". Krylon's been working, for some time now, on getting the Vibrant+ 2.2.1 rom stable and optimized for our phones. This is now know as "Frost". Yes, I'm sure there is also some theming, but please don't call it a theme.

Frost beta and in its current build still has issues, but with the drop of source, its been pushed to the side momentarily.

So is Frost an actual ROM or a theme? I have searched but have only come up with vague responses.
Any help is greatly appreciated, without flaming.
Thanks in advance.

I'm willing to bet that since it has that base listed under Features of V1.6 and the following changelogs DON'T have a different base listed that the answer would be yes.

Awesome using 1.8 now cause gb rooms all have hiccups IMO. Is there any chance we could get a no percentage battery update.zip?

Post 7 and you're already asking for things? A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.

Pumping out another new Rom, you guys are crazy. Wonder if you ever sleep.

Guys, I accidently broke wifi, so flash the kernel right underneath the rom download url.

Perfect timing. I was about to revert from 2.1 REMIX to 1.8. I didn't remember how my battery/gps was with the MR1 radio. So you think that the MR2.0 radio is better than the MR1?
Thanks Adryn!

Just curious, which version out of the Bamf lineup do you use daily Adryn?

Many.
Although this one is on my daily driver phone.

Anyone on the ROM that can't get their SD Card mounted?

Mine is mounting ok. Let me check something.

Hm, this may be the sdcard broken one. Let me upload it. Mah bad. I'll fix wifi while I am at it.
