Does anyone know of the fastest HTC Hero rom that is on 2.1. Like Super D's roms? Or any other really fast roms. Any helpsfull comments are greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance!
SenseHero 2.1!
I will say VanillaEclair 1.2.1 is the best 2.1 rom out
According to the benchmarks posted on the forums, Legendroid is the fastest 2.1 around here.

This was only tested for video / gameplay.
I would usually say there all about the same. You probably wont notice a significant difference between the different versions.
My experience with VillainROM5.22 - stable, but slow. without sense ui little quicker.
ahero0.7 and Androbin 1.1110 (both without JIT) with better speed.
latest version ahero0.8 and Androbin 1.11.... beta r2 (both with JIT) with significant increase of speed. but ahero with lot of reboot, Androbin without problem.
my opinion, same as nprussell (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6275129&postcount=344) , Androbin beta r2 is best.
VanillaEclair its the most fast rom i ever test..
Villain 5.3 its the best SenseUI rom i ever test..
Want a fast ROM? Dont use 2.1!
Use Kimera 1.6 or Modaco 3.2 !!!!! In my opinion Kimera is faster just because of its new overclocked Kernel =) But not my problem next Week my Desire arrive =) =) =)
Has that kernel still got the issue of the camera not working?
have been trying Chpoubs 4.0 Expresso this afternoon. its one of the quicker 2.1 roms, if you are comfortable with using a beta test rom.
I haven't tried any other 2.1 ROMs, but Villain 5.3 is way faster than 5.2.
there have been soooo many threads on this. just do a search!
http://android.modaco.com/content/h.../304106/revote-for-best-2-1-rom-w-benchmarks/
PS. plus, this is in the wrong forum.
What's the real need of a fast ROM?
I've almost tried all of the ROM's, since 1.5 to 2.1, none of them without Sense, because the HTC Hero without it, it's only on more PDA on the scene.
I want for lots of reasons a new ROM based on 2.1 running Sense, but so far none it's good enough. All of the ROM's have lots of bugs, lots of missing features, such gmail, facebook (for contacts sync and completion). Another crucial missing features are MMS and APN settings never working fine.
Here I should say that VillainROM 5.3 it's the best/stable/fast until now. However I rollback to stock 1.5 rooted... It's so far the only one real fast and stable.
An idea for developers: Try to put on all of yours cooked ROM's some file browser. It's very useful for the first time to run, before goes to market.
Thanks to all!

Looking in the Adroid Development forum, there seem to be lots of Eclair roms out there. Some in very early alpha stages, others which have had many revisions. And with the camera fix, it now seems that most/all issues of usability have been addressed.
Just so I don't have to flash ALL the Eclair roms out there, can someone pose their experience with these Eclair roms, and which they prefer for day to day usage on their G1?
My current rom is the latest Cyanogen rom. How are the Eclair roms speedwise compared to the Cyanogen roms? Are they responsive, or sluggish?
Hopefully others can benefit from your experience with these new roms.

using JAC's xRom 1.0 and its very smooth, with the exception of video playback. I'd say its almost onpar with cyanogen. Using the 10mb ram hack for both xRom and cyanogen.

Im using manup 1.5 with the 10mb rom hack mod (posted by another member) and it is blazing fast...almost as fast as the super d i was using and i don't get any fc except on bootup the stuff starting up says fc/wait and you just pick wait then its fine.
i'd highly recommend it and everything is smooth on it. video playback looks fine.

Ive worked with two or three different eclair ROMs, and I can say, as a generalization, two things:
1) RAM hack == good idea. G1 seems too sluggish without the extra RAM, especially once I get all my programs going. Not a 3D gamer, so it hasnt shown any down side from my point of view.
2) BFS == bad idea. Don't know if this is just me, but any ROM I've tried that has been based on BFS has been significantly less stable. FCs, hangs. Ive even had the music app just stop entirely on me once or twice (something that I've never had happen on other ROMs, even Hero ones. Maybe one of the Devs will make up a better ROM for this, but as of now... meh.
Just my two cents.
Glad Dwang (really, what's a dwang?...) hasn't made an eclair build yet, or this would be "Oh, look, that thread again!"
Fastest Eclair Build

Well
In my experience Dwang was the fastest 1.6 I tried, Dwang is his name - David Wang or something like that, But your right sadly he ain't made a eclair build which is a little disappointing as that would of been my option & this question wouldn't be needed...
This Question: What IS the most fastest & stable eclair build out there, something like Dwang 1.7.1 but for eclair.
By this I mean not the fastest on start-up after flashing as all ROMS are fast on start-up, I mean after a week of use with a bucket-load of apps installed & if your using mods (e.g 10MB RAM Hack) add that in your post so I know how to get it as good as I can.
I believe my details of phone I'm using are in my sig but because some don't notice it no matter how bright you make it then here it is - HTC Magic 32B (also know as the Sapphire 32B & MT3G).
Your guys help will be great.
Thanks
BUMP - I'm reviving this old thread because I'm totally overwhelmed with rom shopping.
I need speed, stability, and multitasking.
I use Pandora and Navi at the same time pretty regularly, just to give you an idea.

I tried the TMUS rom and it was ok, but battery life and speed are nowhere near on par with my oem androoted donut. Is TMUS about as good as it gets?
I'm thinking of trying superE, biffmod and maybe a couple of the other ota remixes next. Maybe even CM5 again.
Try Super E and Chromatic 3.9.1 because Froyo still have buggs.
the bugs are out of froyo for a while there is "stable" imo cyanogen rom and there is the OTA with a little tweakage in the dev section...
Complete eclair 2.21 is awesome very quick very stable havnt got an fc yet ive been using it for about a day im frequently changing roms and i think you can ram hack on complete eclair so it will be amazing anywho good luck
Is there a working 2.1 ROM for the G1 which has Live Wallpapers with minimal battery drain and also something close to running at a fast speed with GPS/camera/maps/streetview etc all working?
At the moment I'm using SuperEclair V8.2 by XxKOLOHExX and it's fine and all, but the system slows down to the point of becoming near unusable when Live Wallpapers are on - not to mention the huge battery drain. Are there any ROMs which have such issues corrected?
Thanks in advance~
I'm using superD 1.6. I would change to 2.1 if there was something as fast as 1.6. I have yet to see an eclair rom to match the speed of donut.
It's been a while since I've used a 2.1 rom, but when I did, I didnt notice any battery loss from the live wallpapers. From what I know, live wallpapers doesn't even run when your phone is off/sleeping. LWP's turn back on when your phone comes back on, so it's not constantly running.
edit: That didnt really answer your question =)

Hmm yeah that's true - I don't mind if it's not as fast as donut, just as long as it's not really really slow. The 2.1 ROM I was using had great features but it was just too laggy for me.

+1 for Open Eclair. I used it for my everyday rom for months with no problems. Recently switched back to SuperD out of boredom though.
Ohhh, cool. Looks like Open Eclair is the best way to go. Thanks!
latest open eclair or kingklick's ASOP 2.1 v1.9
Cannon 1.2 with 3d patch 2.0 is fully of fc.
SuperEclair v2.4 or v3.0 I suggest v2.4 with Extended Pack.
Kolehe beta 3.0 Rom. I bet theres no Eclair rom faster. flash and see for yourself. But no LWP's though. And you shouldnt be asking for a fast eclair that has minimal battery drain and complain about something slowing down and your using LWP's.
OpenEclair 1.3.0.1 is very feature-complete, stable and the "no 3D" version is fast enough for daily use. The 3D version though is slow. I've missed several phone calls because it takes that long for the phone to wake up and show caller ID.
The OpenEclair devs are promising improvements on that front in the upcoming 2.0 version, so I'd try that out when it becomes available.

is there anything that does not work yet in OpenEclair, such as video capture, camera, SMS, etc?
I have an original MT3G (using Cyanogen right now) if that makes any difference.
Sorry because of the extremely late reply man :S but...
I think you DEFINITELY have to try this ROM if you wanna know what's speed and reliability. It's based off the official aosp ota for the mt3g (my touch 3g) and tweaked out to run flawlessly on the G1

HI!
Awesome!!! I'm thinking about change phone because it's too laggy but this ROM makes all the diference! Thanks for the suggestion.
Now i only have two questions because i had Cyanogenmod and it has Power Control in the status bar like the samsung galaxy i think and i can also change the number of lines and collumns my desktop has, and chage the weight of the widgets.
Anyone knows what can i do to make that things work in this version?
THANKS!!!

I can't wait for someone to reply to this thread in six months time and be all 'Dude, you gotta check out this honeycomb ROM, it runs amazing on the G1!!' and everyone else will be all 'lulwut?'.
Have had Super-E, but changed to BiffMod.
BiffMod is faster on my G1.
Greetings
Braaaaiiiiiings.... mmmmm... BRAIIIINS!!!
The one I have now is blazing fast, I use from cm4 to cm6 and this thing maybe best so far I have use, no fc and bs since I got it, fancy looks but still maintain good speed. But not sure about juice, my battery is extended one like 3.7 VDC 3000m monster battery so it still last me good 10hr+ even everything is on......
Waiting for good sense mod. ;-)

Hi, i feel like my original Hero ROM is slow as hell.. freezing for 5-10 sec when i write an SMS.. So i'd like some tips on the "best, fastest and less buggy (Completed)" ROM out there for Hero.. There will probably be different tips from different people.. but the most popular ones perhaps?
Thx

That graph is a fair bit outdated, and most of the ROMs have since been updated maybe 5 or so times...
Just take a look in the ROM forums, read what people say, and pick one, give it a go, and move from there. Remember Froyo ROMs will be a fair bit faster than an eclair one, since they use JIT properly, and froyo is a newer version of android anyway (2.2 instead of 2.1)
hello there
I'm using villainrom 12, it's 2.1 sense rom, and it's ok
I heard some great things about robomix, kimera (all 2.1 sense).
If You are a fan of vanilla, I think that You should invest in 2.2 - froyd, elelinux (hope I spelled that correctly).
cheers
brat.haneq
So, Froyo is the new name of the new version of Android?
What is Froyo in depth?
Just installed VanillaEclair and i got problem already
Which Froyo would you recommend? A stable one that is
The first and only ROM ive used was elelinux.. i loved it.. now i see there's a Froyo elelinux
swedroid.se/forum/showthread.php?t=16471&highlight=elelinux
Any good?
I think that there are no bad roms here
all Froyo (2.2) roms are similar, or at least I see them liek that, some have issues, that are promptly fixed.
Froyo is faster. simple as that. Some apps require froyo.
Also - there are some gadgets as "chrome2android".
native app2sd option is also nice.
automatic updates in market.
So quite nice features

Im a dedicated elelinux-user.. Love all his work so far.. AND he's swedish! makes everything so much better !
Hey guys, I'm looking for a new Hero rom, would prefer it being Froyo or Gingerbread. Hopefully I can get a sense rom because I like the syncing options and the sense clock. Are there any roms out there that would suit my need, I know the camera is a bit of a PITA with Sense but I can live without a working cam. Running one of the CM7 betas still on my phone at the moment and I'm kinda getting bored with it. Hope you can help
TIA
Well VR13 is the best IMO but it's 2.1.
SalsaSense is the best 2.3 Sense ROM but it's a bit slow at times. Hopefully that will improve over time since it is beta.
Thanks for the reply, I was running SalsaSense for a few hours but was a bit laggy for me at times, If it weren't for push notifications I'd love to go back to Eclair
2.3 sense was too unstable for me, though I have to say I was impressed of SalsaSense. Erasmux HeroLatte has got some real potential if the work continues, it's still way faster than SalsaSense. The fastest sense rom is probably VR13/ Elelinux 2.1 reloaded, but my favorite is the Tegro Sense rom. It's espresso sense (=good looking) and supports landscape
I decided to go ahead and flash tegro so far its easily my favourite Rom I've used. Minimum amount of bugs , sense and froyo, all together I'm happy thanks for the suggestions guys

hey man if you like sense you can try VillainROM-v13 it's awesome and very fast and camera also work in it but i adore salsasense so i have solve the problem of laggy by flashing (salsasense laite version ) it's awesome and fast
Where did you download salsasense laite version?
In the SalsaSense thread.

fr speed stick to 2.1 sense roms like elilinux reloaded http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1003381
i believe erasmux released a new update to his herolatte,0.5 version was really fast n check out the 0.9 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026699
During my plenty of test, this is the one i finally stated at :
[ROM]Elelinux-Hero-2.1-update1-Reloaded * WWE *2011-05-26
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1003381
it's done by elelinux, which is obvious, 2.1 ROM, as world wide stock, plenty of languages no CHinese. Official alike, just rooted and with app2sd which is essential for Hero to install more.
VillainROM-v13 KERNEL?
What kernel should I use for VillainROM-v13?
FlyKernel or stock one IMO.
Can you post link to kernels? Thanks!
SalsaSense
Now testing SalsaSence RC1 with kernel LV 0.4.6. The developers have released version RC2, I don`t want to firm it, waiting for all of bugs would be corrected.
RC1 in conjunction with the kernel LV pleasantly surprised by his fast work,
and of course there`re some minuses.
When you upload content from the Market, downloading status is lost. The same thing happens when booting from HTC Hub. The truth is not always the case.
In general, I will hope that the developers will bring work to the end and make a decent and reliable firmware-based Salsa
SalsaSence RC2.5 with kernel LV 0.4.7!!
I test the last RC2 and it works fine (for me...)
The greatest sense ROM i have tested!!
And sense 2.1 is Awesome! (for my Hero!)
i agree salsa sense is good but it still has its problems, the sense 2.1 roms are much more usable
I also prefer salsa 2.3

Just got a Hero again a few after i got my old one destroyed.. Back then there wasnt even made a custom rom, so now im going to ask here.
What Custom Rom do you guys recommend ? I have tried allready tried ChocolateFroyo and SalsaSense 4 .. However none of these two roms seems to perform good enough for me to use..
Actually its not that i want that much.. I just want a Android 2.x rom with a good performance and OC kernel + HTC Sense.. I just tend to stick to the 2.2 roms because 2.3 has too many bugs and i've heard that the Android 2.1 roms still suffer from the Random SMS sending issue..
Can you guys recommend anything ? Thanks !
If you want performace, go Vanilla Eclair. If you want Sense and over 2.1, it is a bit trickier. You can try Herolatte, but if you think ChocolateFroyo was too slow, there probably is no current rom which suits you.

I haven't even tried out the Stock 2.1 rom yet.. Hows the performance on that ? And its not like ChocolateFroyo is slow, i just a lot of lag spikes.. Like its performing well enough but then suddenly it all freezes for like 15 seconds and then comes back..
I reccomend Kimera 3.0. Its almost as fast as Vanilla, IMO a bit more stable. I used it for around a month, and recived all my texts, and calls. Only problem is that there is no Apps2SD if you use Fly13 (It's the best kernel imo)

I've tried loads of different rom's and the herodeck 1.3e from my sig is my favourite. I try others but keep going back to it. Why not backup your existing..... flash a new one..... try it out for your own needs and if it's no good.... flash something else that's been recommended or revert back to your backup.

Using Cyangenod released by Elelinux. It contains the latest android version 2.3.7 and is very stable. However this rom is in my opinion not very fast.
I've only really tried a few, sense roms are always slow with all the features. Try elelinux speedmachine running 2.2, I don't know of a faster rom, I haven't tried them all though.

I've always used VillainRom 13 - nice and fast with Sense. If you don't need sense then VanillaEclair seems to be the best judging by what I've heard. I used Elelinux's Gingerbread for a while and that was nice too, but I like Sense too much
Good GB rom
The decked again Hero CDMA ported rom is the fastest GB rom I have tried ALOT of them, so I would recommend that for you!
I use
I use Elelinux-7.1-Hero-Custom-v2 on a every day basis.
Works fine, no FC and quite fast.
I can recommend it.
If you want a fast, stable build I'd recommend Villain Rom since the hero was build to support Android 2.1 and you'll have sense. If you like new and improved and are no stranger to tweaking I'd recommend HTX zero rom wit Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3.5. Very cool and fast.I use it daily now.
VR13 and the new release Heroine++ are the fastest for the hero. (if you like sense to much)...if you like AOSP you go for a CM rom or others
for aosp i tested:
1.CM7 - CM team
2.Eles Rom
3.OMFGB - JieeHD

Can you explain, what's the difference between AOSP and non-AOSP and why should i like and care if it is AOSP or not?

AOSP (android open source project) is regular android with no overlay like Sense or TouchWiz.
Non-AOSP is android with an overlay like Sense.
Sometimes the AOSP rom is faster because there is no extra overlay.
It comes down to preference - look and feel.
