Which ROM is the fastest?

I need the fastest ROM. The one which uses least resources. Which is it?
I need memory for apps to start, so I need basic ROM with low resource usage.
Thank u!

My experience : Froydvillain (vanilla based on 2.2.1)

Sense: VillainROM 13 (Android 2.1)
AOSP: Elelinux Speedmachine (Froyo) or Gingerbread 1.9

1) VillainRom 13 (Ecclair + HTC Sense)
2) Chronos Ginger 2.0.1 (Gingerbread)
3) FroydVillain
VillainRom 13 is definitely "extremely" responsive compared to the others, although they are also quite fast.

I can not install any app from Maket in my Villainrom 13, anyone else has the same problem to me ?

According to my experience:
With sense(android 2.1)- VillianROM 13
Without sense(Android 2.2)- Cyanogen Mod 6.1 + Flykernel 12a to 652Mhz Max.

I am using Elelinux Speedmachine v3 /Froyo... works perfectly and fast for me.

Cronos ginger 2.0.1 is fast for gingerbread.no bug

Please read the FAQ before posting questions. I might of already answered your question in the FAQ.
If you have any general questions post them in the Thunderbolt Q&A.
If you have any ROM/kernel/radio/RUU specific question ask in the appropriate thread for that. Please do not post them in the thread for this listing as you are not as likely to get your question answered as quickly as you would in the appropriate thread.
For those wondering about DemoMan's Verizon Trade In experience.

IX – FAQ
Q: How do I get my ROM/kernel listed on here?
A: Your ROM/kernel must meet all the requirements to be listed on XDA. Along with that it must be listed on XDA in the proper Thunderbolt Development area with the latest release listed in the title of the thread so I can easily know when a new version is released. Finally you must properly credit anyone else's work. I will not tolerate listing any ROMs/kernels that kang from other developers and not give proper credit where its due.
Q: How can I submit info for my ROM?
A: Just private message me here on XDA with any info you want me to include with your ROM infos such as developer credits, potential chat room for discussion for said ROM, and other infos you would find of use to the listing. Also if you want me to update any info about your ROM you can private message that to me as well.
Q: Okay I got questions to ask about ROMs such as which is the best one to use... where can I get answers?
A: The best place I recommend is to post in the Thunderbolt Q&A area here on XDA. Be sure to click on the "Yes, this is a Question" option as well when putting together your post asking your important question.
Q: AOSP? CyanogenMod? Debloat? RUU? What does all this gibber talk mean?
A: The Thunderbolt Root User's Dictonary maintained by MattBeyers does a great job at explaining all of this.
Q: What happened to Chingy's ROMs? What happened to Team BAMF ROMs? Why are they no longer listed?
A: All three have for various reasons decided to leave XDA. Therefore by XDA rules I can no longer list them. I greatly apologize for this.
Q: What happened to KDKobes ROMs?
A: Due to KDKobes kanging from other developers I am no longer listing those ROMs.
X – Thanks And Credits
Demolition Man thanks.... First and foremost thanks to all the developers for all the hard work that has been put into all the amazing work. With you developers we would have none of the amazing ROMs, kernels... let alone this listing wouldn't exist.
Thanks to both XDA and Droid Forums for letting me run this listing.
Thanks to the numerous contributions from members on both forums including some great feedback which has help make this listing even better. I might not have said you by name but you know who you are. Trust me I'm very thankful for all your feedback.
Thanks to Blizzard for creating the worst crack ever... World Of Warcraft. Thanks to Major League Soccer. Thanks to the city of Pawnee, IN especially their Parks And Recreations department. Thanks to Mountain Dew Throwback for giving me some fuel when updating the listing. Thanks to Ring Of Honor. Thanks to both the New England Patriots and Minnesota Vikings.
And thank you all XDA and Droid Forum members for all the support!

Got the first few GB Sense ROMs listed. Please everyone follow the instructions that are given to install these as they both require the new radio to work. Also FYI from a few attempts I have not been able to get any of the kernels out now for either Froyo Sense based or CM7/AOSP based to work with the new leaked GB Sense.

just a suggestion, perhaps you could include a section for the various themes that have been built for the TB. Love the organization by the way.

IMO, the only way that would work CLEANLY is if it was locked except to add new stuff. Any other way and the thread would be massively polluted with questions/answers/random crap. There are a TON of themes.

thank you for keeping this up to date. Nice Job.

[Q] Wildfire Non-HTC Stock ROM?

Hey guys, i really just want to flash a ROM to my wildfire that does not have HTC branded all over it as in my eyes HTC Sense is a pain in the bum and all it does is take power and performance so what I would like to know is, is there a FROYO ROM made for the wildfire without sense for example a port of an untouched nexus 2.1 ROM or something like that?
please don't tell me to use a launcher or to download a heavily edited ROM that has bloat ware all over it plus i do not want gingerbread.

I would have recommended OpenFire as well, since it is a pure untouched AOSP Froyo ROM, but the D/L link is dead, and there's no alternative location to download it yet. An alternative should be UtMostROM (Based off OpenFire)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=862561
Remember though, all of these are minus FM Radio, and Video Recording.
Lastly, you can look at Hybrid ROMs as well, which keep the Sense Framework, but replace the Sense Apps:

Froyo ROMS [2.2]
1)XenoROM R1
-Stock ROM
-Custom XenoROM kernel
-Great performance
-Froyo based, 2.2 ROM
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905758
Opinion : A fast, lightweight ROM with great performance. An excellent ROM for users looking for a taste of the dated Froyo UI. However, it is not generally preferred due to the release of newer Android platforms such as 2.3 and 4.0
2)Japanese Jellyfish RLS8
-Custom ROM
-Custom kernel
-Overclockable
-Froyo based, 2.2 ROM

Opinion : A smooth custom ROM with an overclocked kernel. One of the most popular ROMs before the release of GingerBread ROMs for the ZTE Blade. However, it is not generally preferred due to the release of newer Android platforms such as 2.3 and 4.0

Opinion : One of the early GingerBread builds for the ZTE Blade, the EliteMovil series of ROMs provide a great deal of customization to users coming from stock ROMs. Features such as SD ext support, overclockable kernels, etc. give EliteMovil’s ROMs a certain flair over the stock ROMs

-Gingerbread based, 2.3 ROM
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910356

4)DianXin OS
-Loads of customization
-Stable ROM
-Great UI
-Gingerbread based, 2.3 ROM
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1479188

7) Swedish Snow

-Smooth, good performance
-One of the fastest Blade ROMs
-Gingerbread based, 2.3 ROM
Link : http://www.modaco.com/topic/350875-romgen2-swedish-snow-rls7-android-235/
Opinion : Even as the Blade joins the rank of stable ICS phones, Swedish Snow is still one of the most widely used ROMs. With smooth performance, zero lags and quick responsiveness, it is considered the smoothest Blade ROM and is popular among users who prefer performance over visuals
IceCreamSandwich ROMS [4.0+]
1)CyanogenMod 9
-ICS UI
-Original CyanogenMod9
-Unstable
-No updates since quite a while
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
Opinion : This is the original CyanogenMod 9 unofficial build for the ZTE Blade. At the time of release it was highly anticipated as THE ICS ROM for the ZTE Blade, however due to absence of updates and lack of support, it remains at an early alpha stage, with developers focusing on ColdFusionX
2)BurstLam’s AOKP
-Great ICS AOKP
-ICS GoogleApps
-ICS UI
-Adjustable Softbuttons
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
Opinion : As opposed to ColdFusionX, Burstlam chooses to take time and make major differences tan to release small updates. Currently on Alpha 6.3, the only features not working are YouTube HQ, Video Recording and FM Radio. Hopefully the next update will fix these issues
3)ColdFusionX
-Fully Stable ICS ROM
-Hardware Acceleration
-OpenMaXX camera drivers
-Qualcomm drivers
-CM Repos
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
WP7 Themed : http://www.modaco.com/topic/355702-romcm9wp7-styledlink-up/
Opinion : ColdFusionX is the most favored ICS ROM to date. With beautifully fast updates and minimal bugs, this looks to be a promising ICS ROM. However, some features like WiFi tethering, YouTube HQ and Voice Typig aren’t working, though it is fit for daily use
4)MIUI v4
-MIUI user interface
-ICS themed
-Smooth UI
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
Opinion : This one’s for all MIUI fans. Combining the sleekness of MIUI and the beauty of the ICS user in one ROM, MIUI v4 is a great ROM optimized for daily usage
5) KonstaKANG
-Slim ICS ROM
-Fast, smooth
-Development stage similar to ColdFusionX
Link : http://www.modaco.com/index.php?/to....]-CyanogenMod-9---KonstaKANG-(Android-4.0.4)
Opinion : With a small partition requirement and minimal bugs, this looks to be a promising ICS ROM. However, some features like WiFi tethering, YouTube HQ and Voice Typig aren’t working, though it is fit for daily use.
6) ParanoidAndroid
-Hybrid Tablet UI
-Fast, smooth
-Port from ZTE Skate
Link : http://www.modaco.com/topic/355347-romport-paranoid-android-updated-020712/
Opinion : A much hyped and awaited ROM, ParanoidAndroid brings the tablet UI to the ZTE Blade screen. With features like the tablet home launcher and dual pane settings, ParanoidAndroid surely catches the eye
7) ParanoidAndroid

-Good battery life
-ICS 4.0.4 ROM
Link : http://www.modaco.com/topic/355540-eco-blade-aiming-for-stability-and-battery-efficiency/

-Camera, GPS, Tethering, Headphones and FM Radio not working
-Project Butter accelerated

Burstlam : http://bbs.hiapk.com/forum.php?mod=...=page=1&filter=typeid&typeid=4361&typeid=4361
Opinion : So here we have it. JellyBean for our Blade. One of the first armv6 devices to get it. And it's surprisingly quite stable compared to the early ICS builds. With almost everything except camera, gps, tethering, headphones and radio working, this is not for daily use but is great for a little taste of the latest Android version

Nice list you've put together here mate!

Xenorom? Never heard it

Everyone gets that but the updates are by now months old and he's providing direct links rather than links to the changelog-download pages.
CFX is two versions newer and that is the least outdated.
It's just not working if the thread starter doesn't want to spend the time updating the info, that might hurt the threadstarters feelings but still, running old versions just to spare his feelings?
Just go to http://blade.az.pl/ and copy the info, it would take five seconds out of every day.
Or just redirect to there, they have the newest of everything including CFX.

ColdFusionX is the only one that has the Alpha 13 tag. The rest are all linked to the roms threads here on xda. If u want the Changelog, follow the link and read it in the thread
Where, if I may ask, are the direct links?

CFX FM radio still not working...

I think you should add CM7 KANGs from http://blade.windows98.co.uk/ (targetbsp's one).
They feature some custom libs that improve 3d perfomance and on that page is linked also upgraded gapps (for Gingerbread) and an alternative kernel that fix battery issues on CM 7.2.

It is possible, but very very difficult to do. A sense 2.3.5 rom is there already, but with some bugs.
Everything needs to be risezed to ldpi, Its a full time job. And even then there are many bugs. Dont suspect to get a fully working 2.3.5 rom for wildfire with sense, without sense being open source.
