Which Rom? - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hi folks,
I've been out of touch with custom rom going on's for a while - at the moment I'm running MoDaCo's 2.9 on the 1.5 firmware. Am I right in thinking there are now custom roms I could flash to my Hero that will also update the firmware? What are the particulary good ones at the moment (I haven't seen a MoDaCo Rom for ages - I think 3.2 was the last one?)
Sorry for being such a pain, there just seems to be MOUNTAINS to catch up on.
Thanks,
Pete.

Best 1.5 ROM is SenseHERO 1.6.

there is a new modaco rom, based on the latest 2.1 and it's great. fast and stable.

You have cronos droid which is based on the official 2.1 release (cronos 1.7) and you have villainrom which is also based on the official release (villainrom 10).
Both are rock solid choices.

best eclair/hero port for mt3g?

anyone have any suggestions... i need one thats kinda stable with not a whole lot of lag with primo features... =]
thanks in advance.
moved from development
MLIGN 3.2b is really fast and pretty stable in my opinion.
Hero ROM= MLIGN 3.2B but you need to flash twisted deport 1.0 right after flashing the ROM. no wiping in between. You can find the twisted deport in the MLIGN 3.3 thread.
Eclair ROM = KingKlick's latest 2.1 ROM or OpenEclair's latest 2.1 ROM. Very fast and stable and they both got a 99% working nexus launcher (all it is missing is the 3D roll effect) but they both have all the problems of an eclair ROM for the MT3G/g1. no camcorder or video playback since the drivers aren't released.

ROMs your Waiting for...

Currently waiting for:
Crono's 1.8 pure performance ROM
Villain's SuperHero ROM
Villain's Froyo ROM
Currently using:
ChocolateEclair 1.0.1 ROM
Modaco 4!!!
now 2.2 coming out before official 2.1 for desire maybe we will get it too
WAITING FOR THAT! lol

[Q] any preferred Custom ROM?

hi there!
yesterday I rooted my bro's Legend(stock 1.31) with the r4-legend-root pack and then I loaded MoDaCo's cROM. when he asked me to setup the A2SD, I made a second ext2 part., but then after some reboot the apps disappeared and then showed up again, and then almost all of them lost. so I loaded the root ROM again, which randomly reboots(dunno why).
so I ask you to prefer a GOOD, FAST, SLIM ROM with Sense, and probably a non-app-killer-A2SD.
thanks in advance, Adolf(and my bro too )
This is the best custom rom at the moment... (In my opinion)

Azure .. Froyo (Android 2.2)
Thanks, this looks good, but there is no Sense(that's a pity) ):
I think it will be using any *beta* Froyo modified ROM's. Azure 6 was giving me some problems with YouTube video uploads. I switched back to SweetVanilla RLS 3 (EClair 2.1) and I didn't have any issues. Azure is not slim by any means.

You can only get the SenseUI if you use the official ROM(s) by HTC.

[Q] Switching Roms

*Originally posted elsewhere and got no response*
Hi Chaps, I'm considering switching builds to the current Typhoon nand rom, I'm currently on the old M-DeeJay nand Rom for those of you with long memories, and for the most part it's been very stable. Unfortunately just recently I've been having issues and have decided to have a fresh install.
Reading through the last 60 pages or so of the typhoon rom, it seems like the ROM has become somewhat unstable with the latest versions, with data dropping out, batteries being drained etc
I've experienced no real issues like this with my current Rom (no issues that I can't solve), are these real problems for typhoons rom at the minute that I should wait to see fixed, or is it a case of user error and I'm fine to go for it?
I've never used cwm, so haven't flashed nightlies, I prefer to find a Rom that works and stick with it rather than risk screwing up my phone
Also - just how improved are current roms over ones that were cooked up around christmas time?
The other ROM I considered was the Dorimanx one, it seems to be just a little too tweaked for my liking
current cm7 roms have android 2.3.5 base. instead of them you can use roms with android 2.3.4 base (which are stable).i typhoon rom op there are old rom download links.i'm not sure but version 3.4.1 is said to be very stable.
best stable rom i ever tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
and fast ...
thanks chaps - now running typhoon 3.4.1
best rom with sense is Android 2.2.1 Sense 2.0 NAND Firmware (based on stock Desire HD RUU Ace 1.84) by Mikhei777
I cant speak for non Tmobile HD2 devices. But for the TMobile version this ROM is the fastest, cleanest, and most stable I have used. I have been using it for almost a year. So far have not run into any issues especially once I switched to the CLK version. [OCT16] AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB2.3.7 CM7 | bk2sdext [KERNEL:ACA823]

Custom ROMs on official gingerbread

Hi all,
For everyone asking about custom roms ont 2.3.4 here is the situation :
For everyone who have upgraded the MS2 to the Official 2.3.4, no step back is possible to Froyo 2.2 or 2.2.2.
custom ROMs based on Froyo will not work (like CM7/9 from Tezet.)
=> Someone will have to build on based on the 2.3.4 kernel.
custom ROMs based on Chinese GB seems to work...
=> MS2Ginger for exemple.
custom ROMS based on Defy+ ROMs ?
So, who want that the CM or MIUI ROMs are ported to the newer Motorola kernel ? (So everyone could choose between BLUR, CM and others ?)
I say it on an other thread that the ms2ginger and the argen2stone roms are running on an ms2 with stock gb rom. Somebody must make an cm7 with the 2.3 kernel than wie can use customroms.
thanks for your thread.
But my question is, this official rom 2.3.4 does work better than froyo? or the custom rom 2.3.7 de CM7? It might be a dumb question or it's answered in another thread, if that case sorry.
Thanks
Yes i want Miui with the new kernel ! For a better touchsreen sensitivity for eg.
I try Argen2Stone 2.7 RE but i dont see adjust scrips and keep the old dialer from stock rom.
The 2.3.4 brings some bug fixes, and some upgrades.
From the kernel point of view, the same release is used (Linux Kernel 2.6.32.9). So no major bug fixes at kernel level for my point of view. Maybe some parameters changed.
The main point is for the "upgraders" to Gingerbread that can't go back to Froyo.

I tryed to flash MS2Ginger but the MS2 doesn't turn on.
I don't know.
could Anyone post how to flash step by step ?
tks
I think that the new kernel can improve MS2 performace so a rom based on the new kernel it's much better than the old modded rom.

I have the same idea...waiting for some MIUI or CM7 based on this new kernel.
I'd like someone who knows what they are doing to de-blur it. I have removed as much as I dare but still have too much moto... rubbish on the phone.
yeah agreed with u guys i wish a custom rom based on new gb 2.3.4

or new FR
is true. I think it's time to leave the kernel of froyo that is old and start to compile with the new kernel brings improvements and is of GB!
GB kernel is in fact the same linux kernel version as froyo kernel, so there are not any improvements except for some minor patches.... So no reason to leave froyo.
I just don't get why you all guys updated to GB and then you all crying, you can't use custom roms and that froyo kernel is old and why gingerbread isn't used... GB kernel in custom roms isn't high priority in dev right now. Deal with it. GB kernel don't bring any valuable improvements, so only reason to leave froyo and get in GB are you all, who did that mistake and upgraded to official GB without even reading the forum here (because it was already written so many times there...).
No offense please, I'm just sayin' that GB kernel in custom roms don't have high priority, because of missing downgrade capability and because they don't bring nothing so exciting and big or valuable, nothing worth. So when dev update to GB, he can't go back to froyo - and this is quite big limitation...
Actually CM9 does work over Euro GB kernel. It is based on Chinese GB kernel. And I must say Tezet has made some really good progress with CM9.
And Defy ROMs based on Defy+ kernel have also been proved to work on Euro GB kernel.
These ROMs work if we remove devtree.img and boot.img from the update.zip and thus only flash system.
So I guess it is only a matter of time.

No crying here, just discussion, which is what the forum is for. What was your point?
may be it's better to find a way to downgrade.

I think I said my point clearly... But once again then:

And don't take my words too personal. Easy man, easy...
Sometimes it's cool to have stock ROM. But,it will be much cooler if we can switch to custom ROM's. Stock ROMs are slower and less free RAM than CM7 or MIUI. Now,I'm getting bored with MS2Ginger2.1.
All we have to do is just wait..
hi, did anyone manage to overclock after updated to stock 2.3?
android overclock doesn't work anymore after i updated
