ROM Section suggestion! - HD2 General

Hi there,
Im new on the XDA Community cause i recently buyed a HTC HD2,before the HTC i was using an iPhone 3GS and im like "reborn" till im using the HTC...
Well i just have one suggestion that i want to propose to the ROM Section on this forum...
Is possible to add on the main page a prewiew of the ROM,on the right side,so all the people could know how is customized the rom,i know it will use more pages but is better...like the modmyi forum have...
I've made a poll to see what people think about this...
Is just a suggestion,if is the wrong section just Move the thread..
Cheers guys
P.S: Sorry for my english,im from croatia.

Here is how it should look:

nice idea but I think that seeing as many roms have different interfaces eg. Cht, gtc, maxsense. etc it may be slightly difficult to do.

The problem I have found on HD2 forum, is so many old ROMs listed rather than being in one chefs thread with latest version.

In fact that isnt a problem...if a rom have different version the preview would be 1 but like sliding pictures ...so u can see all the versions!
I like a lot this idea,hope that some admin could say something about this...

Grats on being a tool.
I am using panosha's think rom ( 6.0 ) and i am loving it man, i might as well try 6.1 in couple of days but for the time being think rom suits me .
I'm using bepe 0.54 (without TomTom) cos its windows 6.1. It seems faster than standard and stable... Give it a go!
Stable = Panosha's Light & Butterfly Edition.
Faster = Bepe's 5.4 Special Edition Full.(Really Rocks)

Are you for real?
How hard it is to read through the original threads of the roms and SEE USER OPINIONS ALREADY on each of the roms?
AND why would you just take someones word on it without trying it your self?

Have you seen the number of pages for each? Also, how many of those posts are about little user problems? I personally found this thread useful as it COMPARES each release to one another. I really hate it when someone replies to a post with the typical troll comments like "search" or "have you not read the (500 pg) post?" If you don't have something helpful for a poster, just don't write anything at all.

Absolutely, this thread has encouraged me to make the leap.
Question though; has anyone flashed their UK O2 Polaris phones?
THX for the recommendations, hey what about this project where some people did collect some money to create a ROM and named Polaris Project...???
Did they something...???

reading all the post is not better that a full direct recommendation from the users, thats the way that i asked for, it helps too another users to filter unneeded information as i've found on the ROM's threads. Also we can chart the quality and usability of all the ROM posted up to now. Anyway THX for the answer. Don't forget we're in a Forum, Q&A.

Newbie - What can be done?

Hey guys new to the forum - i've had a HD for about 3 months now and done nothing with it just used it as i would a nokia 402! lol I chose this over the iphone simply because of the keybad option when typing texts etc.
What cool things can be done to make my HD better?
My HD runs slow all the time -it's not loaded up with junk or any files at all really and yet it runs slow when the hardware specs suggest it shouldnt. I'm on orange (so prolly got a bs orange rom, right?)
Can you get cool games for the HD for when im at work like you can the iphone?
Many Thanks.
I recomend having a look in the ROM dev forum and wait until dutty releases his 3.9xt ROM.
If you flash this rom you will think you have a new phone!
Read up on crackwhores guide to flashing as i'm guessing you will have the stock spl.
So you have to flash an official HTC 1.54 ROM first. Then flash duttys.
I may sound complicated but it really isn't.
Also, if i were you i'd use USPL as appose to HSPL as the latter voids your phone warranty!
Jake
so you think i should wait for a new release from Dutty?

Well he's got 3.8 out atm but said he'll upload 3.9 tonight so ye, i'd wait a day tbh.
Also, there have been some problems with people using backup&restore programs for sms, contacts and things so if you can sync your calendar and contacts using outlook that would be even better.
His new ROM will also be UC compatible which is going to make installing all your main cabs the easiest thing in the world
Jake
Flash some different chef roms and add a little spice to your device!
are there any decent games and things like there are for iphones?

Are you using search because your questions have been answered many times all over this site look above and type what you want in search you will be surprised by what you can learn or you can check the wiki as well they even list what works and what doesnt including games
Read all you can about flashing and then, try new ROM's.
My ROM if Laurentius L26, and I'm really satisfied with it...
Also take a look on apps to install...
Im dim.... what's flashing and how would I load duttys new rom version, can I break my phone in doing so??....sorry
Yeah sorry i made this thread because it's quick and easy to keep an eye on - i'm at work you see and they wouldnt appreciate it if i was on one site for 50-60mins searching around, i perhaps should have stated that in my first thread. Sorry.

Mate, the best thing to do is search and learn...
Flashing is changing the ROM (software) of your mobile. You can change the stock ROM by a lot of cooked ROMs that are posted here at the site.
But until you decide on what to do, read carefully all threads to understand how it works...
i've flashed it to Dutty's XT Turbo 3.9... it's pretty nice. I was just asking about the gsensor games lol
there are plently.. at least for starters u are in the right forum !!!!
search around look around.. ask questions at QnA
you can take a look at my humble blog too... there are some useful freewares made by folks here mentioned there too
I want that Dusk Manila theme, not entirely sure how to do it though and cant find any info on it Any shed any light on it for me?

There are some theme projects going on (search the themes/apps forum) but haven't seen them cooked into any one's rom yet. Maybe talk to the folks doing the themes and collaborate on a rom? I wouldn't mind running a well done WP7 themed rom tbh.

[Q] Full function android on HD2

I had an HD2 before but did not like windows at all and there was not a suitable android release for it so I sold it.
I really liked the phone but was wondering if there is a good android replacement where everything works available for it now?
Thanks for any help
I use the BOYPPC SHIFTPDA DHD V18 Rom (Desire HD) on my HD and it works perfectly on it.
if you have TMOUS LEO1024 i would check out this ROM. i have found that its pretty much bug free (none that i've found anyway) and a great ROM overall. also a great fast/stable ROM would be RAFDROID HD found here.
if you need a guide on re-installing Android i would check this thread out
I have not bought one yet but I'm looking on Craig's list and will find one soon.
Are the ones you guys mentioned Gingerbread?
Thanks for your help
I've tried almost all available NAND builds for HD2 and I can say that I found only one stable and fast build which is NexusHD2-Gingerbread".
I've tried those big, ram eaters - HTC SENSE ROM's
The thing that convinced me to install it was obviously HTC Sense, but I realized that it's unless if I am not using it's widgets (facebook, twitter, messages, etc).
But that wasn't the main reason why I left these roms, the main reason was the performance. Booting took much longer than on normal clean non-sense rom, I had to wait until it stabilize itself after each boot (1-2 minutes, htc sense had to load up and other processes). Scrolling wasn't smooth as on clean rom. These roms are more likely designed for 1024mb hd2's because on 512 hd2's it just doesn't fit (i don't know how it works on 1024mb but i guess the same, the only reason why I said it is for 1024mb hd2's was because mostly every htc sense build requires sd parition). The phone did not respond as quick as on clean gingerbread build. I just think that camera is better than on clean rom, pictures looks nice, sharp with good contrast.
I've also tried MUI roms.
These roms are nice and simple, eye catchy UI and advanced settings. Ability to change lots of things such as boot image and sound, custom firewall, etc. everything can be easily found, just few taps, everything is nicely designed.
However it is not as quick as clean rom, it can hang somewhere, and not always completely translated from Chinese to English. You can customize it for your own needs.
Normal clean roms are the best in my opinion.
I've used mostly all different roms, Android and Windows 7, and I always come back to NexusHD2-Gingerbread rom. I think that the only thing that makes me changing this rom is it's simplicity. It is the cleanest rom I ever seen and quickest one (you just need to change home launcher to GOLAUNCHER as it make the phone super fast and responsible, because on standard one scrolling through apps lags).
So I prefer this rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060 thanks to it's fast booting, fast responding and stability.
HTC SENSE ROM's might have better benchmarks but believe me it can't be compared with Clean NexusHD2-Gingerbread rom. Every gameloft game
work flawlessly on it.
It is just my opinion from the experience with those roms.
Do we have to have this same topic re-created and re-cycled every single [email protected]*king day?
Its not hard to use search or go through a couple of pages, Its just pure lazyness to create this topic, pure and simple.
Second vote for Gingerbread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060 It is just great and hassle-free, gave me no trouble of any kind.
As far as threads like this are concerned, I don't see why members can't ask for other members' opinions on what they like or dislike. Of course they can go and check out the available versions by going through the threads and posts, but personal recommendations would be the best way of finding out the outstanding work, rather than waste time going back and forth even after all the reading is done and all the problems are noted. It's not only time consuming, it can be daunting with the amount of information and releases that's out there. Perhaps we should run the best release poll and have it stickied to save time. After that whoever wants to try other things is free to rummage through the section and flash at their heart's desire.
@Gabriel51 your bound to get so many different answers because everyone likes different things as already pointed out
@dawid your right that if you dont use the widgets theres really no point at all so i have to give you that but lets talk about scores for a second. i personally clocked 41.something mflops on RAFDROID HD using linpack, a 2816 quadrant score & vellamo was only 29 points behind the dual core Sensation. now im not saying numbers are everything but you would have to admit thats pretty fast. although i really like the wifi calling feature available on the NexusHD2 ROM which im sadly missing :'( this feature alone is worth flashing that ROM
@TheATHEiST it does seem like this is covered on a daily basis from different people and a search would yeild results if people would ever use it. i will say though in all fairness that i use the search feature everytime im trying to find something but i feel the search function on this site is a little subpar causing it to be difficult at times to find what your looking for. most of the time i dont have any problem at all though.

They can, thats not the point, The point is this is the same question, over and over and over, Why create the same topic and ask it again instead of reading one of the other topics? You are going to get just as relevant answers by reading them as you are creating another topic. All topics like this do is clutter the place up.
For example, If I was to get a new device tomorrow, I wouldnt go and create a silly topic like this in my new devices section as its common sense it will have already been asked and answered, Instead I would go and read the topics that already exist and try some roms out for myself. The fun part is learning and adapting.

There is a no stupid question for most educators and then there are those that expect you to glean through hoards of information in hopes of finding and discerning information relevant to ones needs.
I intend to continue to ask those with knowledge their opinion on topics such as this and those who wish to contribute understand then need to do so.

I've had this argument a few times now. The point is if you all keep creating threads on topics that have already been Answered your making it harder for people to search for their answers because your cluttering up the forums with sh+t. I'm happy to spend some of MY time answering questions but when the op could of simply typed "revert hd2 to stock xda" into Google and found his answer it becomes quite tedious because this question does get asked everyday.
/edit and the op shouldn't be installing custom roms if he doesn't know how to remove them
