Even more speed possible? - HD2 General

Hey all, is there any way to decrease the scalar lag on my HD2? I don't care about battery life, so if it consumes more, that's fine. By scalar I mean lag such as...when you flip the clock up on the home tab, it's slow. Switching to the Album tab and back dramatically speeds up the flip clock speed. I already have LeoCpuSpeed enabled so it helps but doesn't get rid of this lag. Any help appreciated.
Ps. The lag disappears for a while when I switch to album tab or Internet tab and scroll up or down a little. Thx

Flashing a custom rom.

If you are into flashing cooked roms, ive found that roms that use EXTENDIR have drastically better sweep/scroll than ones without.
Of course the roms are tweaked for performance too, but it is still noticeably smoother.
i rarely recommend roms, but THIS one, v1.37 is by far my favourite rom,. i go back to it again and again.

Any ultra light version?

First of all, sorry if this is a stupid question but I dont want to post the same in any topic.
I ask if anyone made or can make a WM6.1 ultra light version. I mean, the more recent OS version, but without any application like HTC Home, albuns, players, personal themes or else. Just the plain and simple Operative System, for anyone that want to install his prefered applications.
I'm not a cooker and try some ROM's, but the ones that work fast and stable, got too much programs that never used, and the ones really light, have too many bugs or are realy slow.
Thanks in advice....
i want to know that too
edit: but the closest on i've seen is Mary's Super Light 3.7 (currently using it)

Hi SuperSport,
Have you compared this with FIniXNover 3.4 Light? In your opinion which is more stable, faster with less bugs...
Thanks for your help.

Actually, I haven't compared them. As it is now, I use my phone heavily on a daily basis, so I cannot be down with problems. From what I read, there are still some problems with 3.4. I may be wrong, but I have not tested yet.
Don't get me wrong, I think FIniXNover is a GREAT chef, and have tried his ROMS in the past, but for now, will stick with these...

TF3D views appriciated?

Hi,
I've been using daran_clarke's TF3D Beta 3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448178) for a short while now and really like it. Thanks Daran!
However I've been toying with installing a new rom, something I've been putting off for a while now.
I'd like people's opinions on the benefits / difference's between the above TF3D and the ROM below which also looks awesome?
Smaberg's Touch X 10.1 ULTIMATE X-TREME "MrRusch BLUE EDITION" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493848)
Anyone tried both? This is my day to day phone so stability and performance matter most to me.
Many thanks in advance for views offered.
Richard
Hi Richard,
I recently updated my ROM to itje's TouchX edition and it's honestly fantastic. Not had a single problem bug wise with it yet and has massively increased my battery life compared to the UK Vodafone ROM.
Not sure if this helps you but just thought I'd give you some info!
The Diggler
Thanks, presumably you're more than happy with the speed then judging by your post?
I was thinking of going with either that or the Blue version above.
before flasing smaberg's touchx 10 rom (blue), i used the tf3db3 cab by daran clarke.
it works fine but having the rom installed is much much faster and stable. the finger gestures, scrolling and menus are smoother.
if u want speed and performance definitely go for the rom.
+1 for itje's Touch-IT Xperience 10.2
It's fast, smooth, nicely featured and most importantly works without special tweaks. I had one difference of opinion on Opera but installing the old version solved that problem. Battery life is MUCH better than older ROM versions and memory use has been optimised so RAM is freed up when you close apps.

Am I the only one that likes the stock?

My last WinMo phone was the XPERIA X1. With the stock ROM, it was an absolute train wreck. I loved to browse XDA and flash custom ROMs for the interesting hybrid SE Panels / TouchFlo3D ROMs. They were so fast, too, compared to the original SE 6.1. The original was just slow and laggy and frequently buggy as hell.
That was just a year ago.
With the HD2 I find myself not nearly as compelled to flash the ROM. I purchased my HD2 T9193 used (got it in mint condition for a screaming good deal) and the past owner had a custom ROM on there. I actually flashed to an official ROM -- the 1.66 WWE. I also flashed the radio, and I was damn impressed after applying g.lewarne's brilliant registry tricks. The device was snappy, fast, lag-free, and just plain ultra-responsive. I actually liked everything about it, from HTC Messaging and the HTC keyboard to the stock Opera browser to the stock task manager and whatnot. I just felt really at home, and I was really pleased with Sense both visually and in respect to its performance.
Then I see people deriding the stock ROMs thread after thread, blaming it for people's random problems with the HD2. They claim that custom ROMs can fix the problems, but I'm running a stock ROM pretty much trouble-free. The problems I read about that are frequently attributed to stock ROMs are problems I myself am far-removed from, including but not limited to crashing, lag, bugs, and general unsatisfactory performance.
So is it really the stock ROMs that cause so many problems? I'm fairly convinced they represent an excellent way to get a known experience that you can customize fairly easily to exactly the configuration that works for you. I'm very happy with my HD2 and once I get the bloody data connection issue fixed for good I can't imagine the stock ROM will ever give me a misstep. It's just stable and fast as hell for me.
Does the stock ROM just "work" for anyone else?
(I apologize if this is considered a ROM discussion thread [not my intention, but I understand if it is considered so or devolves into one])
I'd prefer a cooked stock-like ROM than any heavily-themed one...if that's what you mean.
I have a stock T-mo Rom, and it's work well for me...Coupla of reg tweaks, and apps. Still has some bugs though..
I too went from the X1 to the Leo (as I affectionally call it over the HD2). I am using the stock 1.72 WWE/HK ROM and am quite happy with it. The thing is there are several things about cooked ROMs that you simply cannot get from a stock ROM (not even by adding .cabs), but the cooked ROMs are always heavily themed.
If I remember correctly, there was only like a handful of X1-based cooked ROMs that matched the look of the stock but had the usability of a cooked ROM, that was my preferred choice.
As for the Leo, there isn't that option just yet.. and regardless, some people (like me) usually stay on the stock ROM to let the cooked ROMs mature, then maybe I'll test one or two out..
p.s. Anyone feel sometimes some cooks go insane (in a humorous way) with heavily skinning the interface? Just makes me go oh my god! (completely personal opinion with NO mentioning of names ).

Isn't an option yet? Have you look at the ChuckyROM kitchen? Not all Cooked ROMs are skinned to death (though I agree, some people do have bad taste in themes ) and some are done exactly like stock. If that's not enough, you can always cook your own stock ROM with the added stability and performance tweaks.
I am actually quite happy with the stock T-Mo US ROM. I have not done much tweaking of any kind really. Someday I am sure I will but for now I am quite happy with the phone as it is.
I love stock as well. Tried a couple of coocked (artemis and another one I can't remember) but I am not happy with them at all.
Stock is good. 1.66WWE.
I understand the benefits of cooked ROMs with regard to features and incremental bug fixes, but I don't understand why these benefits come at the expense of the stock ROM's reputation -- that is what I am getting at. I find nothing egregiously wrong with the stock ROM for me now that I've tweaked it sufficiently.
The BEST part about the HD2 is that I always have the option. And the options are all attractive.. I guess there's just too many of them for me to pick just one.
i like my stock ROM don't see any point yet to go for a custom one.i updated to the official one from htc website and hot nolag or problems
There's no stock ROM with WM6.5.x available, so using a stock ROM is not an option.
I use stock 1.66 ... no problems for me! (well no major ones anyway... got a minor issue with text size when writing an sms but i think every rom has this)
I have the stock 1.72 and I have to say im very happy with it. I would consider a cooked Rom but it will be for curiosity not because of any probs with the stock one.
RReckless
It depends on people's taste
I love cook roms because I like 6.5.x finger-friendly style, and in cook rom I dont have to install some apps 1-by-1, and dont have to apply tweaks 1-by-1. Another good things is cook rom decorate the start menu quite well.

I stayed on the stock ROM for a day. TBH, I bought the HD2 knowing I was going to flash to a Cooked ROM, which I did as soon as I could.
btw, when you're ready for a cooked ROM, you should consider g.lewarne's Series of ROM's which include even more of these tweaks (including the ones for battery life)

I like this statement. Very true.
I use a custom ROM because the OS has a footprint of under 50Mb with a few tweaks, it's fast, and good looking. WM 6.5 stock ROMs are ugly, and I am spoilt with the finger friendliness of 6.5.x.

Now that I've got my data connection issue resolved I'm not sure I'll ever want to reflash to anything. Seriously, every time I hard reset the data connection has issues staying alive for more than 5 minutes. It just perishes dramatically and doesn't return unless I soft reset the device (even the CommMgr wouldn't do it).
I'll figure out the battery tweaks on my own; shouldn't be too hard with an unlocked registry. When I'm ready to flash to a cooked ROM it'll likely be an ultra-lite ROM that's almost totally naked (little to no cooked-in apps, perhaps even Sense natively absent) so I could get it to exactly the way I want from there.

You just described g.lewarne's ROM Series mate
I've flased the O2 1.72 stock rom and I have no problems to report. It even solved the SMS lag. Along with Cookie, BSB, HD2 Tweak and all the fab clocks from everybody, the stock rom suits me fine.

how's the battery life?
CleanEX Core Rom
Why? Very fast, very stable, good battery life, and most of all its clean.
No 35 extra apps installed wich half of them you don't use anyway like in most other roms. The ROM is pure and clean and leaves you the choise what apps you want to install yourselve, thats the way I like my ROMs.

Why Are Custom Roms Worse Than Stock Roms?

i had installed a custom rom based on 6.5 on my hd2. its supposed to be a stripped down version of the stock rom, so its supposed to give longer battery and better performance. but its got terrible battery life, and camera and pictures look horrible. the stock rom gives batter cam and pics, and the battery is WAYYY better. can someone explain why this is so if this is supposed to be better than a stock rom?

hi, digiholic.. thanks for the reply. the rom i used was dutty's reference rom. i installed it and it looks good. but the camera and pictures look so dull that it looked horrible. and the batt life was a huge drain. but on a stock rom, the the batt life is better than the refernce rom. and the pics and cam are the best i've seen.. which is why i ask why is a customized rom worse than a stock rom?
and i installed 2 droid roms, gb 2.3 and cymod7, i think. and they suck. the call quality was staticy. the cam and camcorder were sluggish and dull looking, and the batt was horrible.
but i am wanting to install wp7.. as long as they are apps for what i need. for example, i'm l;ooking for a nyc subway app. i hope theres one for wp7.

I haven't had any of those problems with HyperdroidGBX. Only static I get in a call is from having the volume up too loud and that's not from the call. My cameras work fine and take good quality pics for a phone. Battery life is good... for Android.
I tend to go into all types of settings after a new install and tweak and optimize as much as possible so I might be getting better results.
I tried WM6.5 for half a day when I got the phone. Hated it so I rooted and ROM'd quickly. Can't attest to it's abilities. I am curious to test WM7 but Android does everything I need and more I don't know if I'll ever test it.

I had no idea you were the same dude who has been posting the various threads on porting iOS and running WP7 apps and now with why are custom ROMs bad.
It really sounds like you got the wrong phone.
Here's the deal:
All custom ROMs are different, just as all stock ROMs are different.
I personally hate the Stock WM6.5 ROM on the HD2, it is buggy, slower, and you can't really do much with it. Have a little fun if you are going to use WM6.5
Flash NRG or another custom ROM that really lets you have some fun with your device, maybe a CHT2 ROM that you can change all the UI elements and add widgets and other mods as well as some awesome themes and such.
Battery life depends on your radio, ROM, and settings, so anything could be the culprit there, you might try different radios.
I am not following you around and couldn't care less about where you go, you just happened to start 3 threads that I happened to to read and reply to the effect that you didn't even attempt to search or learn about the device before you posted, that was all.
I had no idea you started all 3 threads until I just read this response right now.
Either way, if you are actually serious about this thread, I would suggest you really try out some really good custom ROMs and be sure to flash task29 before switching ROMs because this will really eliminate latent NAND issues that could carry over to the next ROM.
My suggestion is the latest NRG 6.5.x sencity CHT2 ROM.
edit:
for Android try running American Android from SD, everything works perfect for me on the latest build.

Thanks you for your permission, I will ensure I do not cross you lest I suffer the consequences.
As far as flashing WP7, try one of the new NoDo ROMs and remember you can actually dual-boot the ROM I suggested from your SD card. So upon booting you can choose WP7 or Android depending on your needs that day.

because you cannot compare an operating system that has drivers specifically written for that device and compare it to a hacked ported operating system, you have not compared a stock rom to a custom rom, if you are going to compare them please use a winmo6.5 rom not android!

ok, now we're making progress.. and thanks for the reply. you mentioned installing the new NoDo rom for WP7. does this new rom possess live services and marketplace? i read somewhere that WP7 roms dont have that.. but you can enable them with some hack. i want a rom equipped with services and marketplace without having to ruin the hack.. too tedious.

you will probably have to contact M$ to get a code to enable the live services

Yes, you call MS and say you're running WP7 and need an activation code. They will give it to you, you then enter it into your phone and Live Services work just fine.
All custom ROMs are pre-configured with the "hack" and other settings. You just need the activation code from MS. This is the same process someone who has to hard-reset an HD7 would have to go thru.
Dual-Boot is pretty easy, you just stick a ROM on your SD card and choose to boot that if you want, it actually is pretty simple.
