Great link and just as useful
The Answer
hey there. im gonna actually answer ur question instead of telling u to search. okay well there is really two things u can do, maybe three.
1) install cyanogen's ROM
2) hero ROM
3) donut optimized ROM
my first choice would be cyanogen. visit his site:
www.cyanogenmod.com
this rom is basically the most stable and fastest rom out there. its running the 1.6 donut firmware but it is highly optimized. this is what i am using now. second option is to install a hero rom. i would try either eugenes rom or maxisma's hero roms. they are the best and they offer the best support without being rude. check them out here:

third option (which i dont recommend) is to use an optimized donut rom that ISNT cyanogen. i wouldnt even bother with these. these are the three roms i would use. take care.

People would be more willing to help instead of just saying to search for the answer, if the OP had posted this in the right section of the forum. This belongs in general, not development. That's why Evil and I did not help. As you can tell by my link, I posted the forum rules and how you need to post in the right section because development is not general, like this question is.

All opinions are subjective. I would flash dwang 1.11 to your MT3G as it runs a lot more smoothly than Cyanogen. Look for dwang's rom on this board as IMO it is the fastest and most optimised rom for the 32b Magic/MT3G.
Yeah dwang's rom is really good. Using it right now. And there are good alternatives for some of the Hero features. Beautiful widgets or weather widget (skinnable!) instead of Hero flip clock. Advanced Launcher if you want more home screens, spelldial for responsive touch dialing (can't live without this one). And the touch keyboard from Hero is available (search HTC IME, this keyboard also includes XT9).
As for the wrong section;
Maybe subtexts for the categories would help a bit?

Welcome to Android and hello from a fellow MT3G user. Important things to know about modding your android phone, the Mytouch 3g = Magic 32b. This is important and how developers explain which rom (build) is for which phone. The second most important thing to invest in is a CLASS 6 micro SD card. This is very important, class 6 is the speed of the SD card and a very fast SD card is needed for running any HERO rom. HERO roms put files on the SD card that are needed with normal usage so if you use the SD card that comes with the phone (class 2) it will run slow as hell. A good, cheap class 6 SD card is this 8gb Adata card for 17.75. This is the SD card I use. If you're still on the SD card that comes with the phone, you're not out of luck. I would start out with Cyanogen's 4.3.2.1, his current build. His builds have the latest and greatest features while not starting from a hero build. It does not have the super fancy UI, but still looks a lot prettier than stock, is rock solid stable and runs extremely fast. Check it out here.
I'm assuming you've never rooted an android phone before, so when you're ready, which this step-by-step video on how to root . I would certainly recommend watching the video a few times before you do it and make SURE to follow it exactly. Good luck, have fun and post up with your thoughts and experiences.

So what are the benefits from running different roms? Will the processing be faster? In other words, if you (the reader of this reply) was a salesman and I (acscott22) was the customer why would I want to switch roms? What am I going to notice from making the switch?
does the mt3g need partitions or do you need them only for certain roms?
quick question
Since HTC has already stated they wont release Sense UI for any google branded phones (Mytouch 3g, etc) instead of flashing a Hero rom, wouldn't it be easier to flash a vanilla unbranded Donut ROM onto the Mytouch and then add the Sense UI?
not sure if anyone has tried this yet though

Well, a salesman wouldn't really tell you to as it's all a bit nudge-nudge wink-wink and voids your warranty.
Pretty much you'll be allowing yourself to do things you wouldn't normally be able to do with a stock ROM, some of which would help speed up your phone a bit. It's not so much about just speeding things up but exploring the potential of the phone to its fullest. Not only that but you'll have all the latest and greatest updates without waiting for you carrier to release them over OTA! Impress your friends! Befuddal your enemies (see; iPhone users)!

Only with ROMs that support/require them, primarily for App2SD (instead of storing applications in the phones internal storage storing them in on the SD) and/or a swap partition to free up RAM. Most of the time it's not necessary but you'll be missing out on the additional, beneficial functionality.

Unfortunately I'm pretty sure Sense UI requires a lot of dependencies that are only present in Hero ROMs, and can't just be brought across wholesale from said Hero ROM to AOSP builds.
ok but HTC has said that they are going to release sense UI to unbranded Magics. Not sure when, but they did say that it was going to happen. I guess I'll have to hold out. I cant go without bluetooth, but I really like the Sense UI of the Hero Roms.

I've been a lurker for quite some time... and I always feel like i'm missing something. I've already got the cyanogenmod, but what you posted I found was helpful. There's a lot of roms out there, there's lots of lists, and many have a lot of information in them. Informations good, but it's nice to see it summarized in just a few sentences.
Sure a lot of posts are reposts... but sometimes those good because older stuff needs updating/clarification.
Thanks!

HTC were talking about HTC branded Magics (32A). The 32B Magic (MyTouch3G) is Google branded and doesn't have enough RAM to run Sense UI.

As of today? I am looking to install a 2.2 rom for a co worker. Since i will not be around to trouble shoot after installation I need something very very stable and w/ everything working. Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!
p.s. I know there is an identical thread but no one has posted there in over 2 months and at the speed of these new releases that post is like ancient now.

flame on....
here we go again.
anyway, hyperdroid v1.6 (non-sense build) works really good for daily use. For a sense build, i can't answer, cause i just don't use it (it's frugly)
Round 10000th.
All builds are stable.
By now, who make the builds stable are the Kernels.
So the builds, who have the last updates in kernel sutff, are the most completely.
The build I most like are the HD and Z, but they don't have the camera working, so for now, I chose another one with it and the last kernel who fix the premature flash.
Choise by your taste.
U should have posted it and get flamed in Android General section...

The most stable is the 1.D.10.T 10-16-10...
Kidding aside, it's a little tough to call, different folks -- different strokes i guess, after trying differnet combos, radio's etc....
for me the best has been the mDeeJay's Froyo sense.... (specially with hastarian kernals)
i like v2.5... over 1.1 clean....
I was gonna post the link, damn i'm not allowed to!
ey the most stable for me is
android ..Mdeejay_FroYo_HD_v._3.6
wm... Dexter-TheDarkOne,Radio Leo 2.15.50.14
camera dont work
Difficult to answer and a bit dangerous also The latest ones would be amoug the most stable although not always necessarily so.
i think anyone who posts these types of questions, especially in DEVELOPMENT!!!

It's called Windows Mobile 6.5.
The HD2 comes with an OS that is exactly what your colleague needs. Why would you even consider sticking them on Android if they cannot fix any issues that crop up?
I'm a big fan of Android and would recommend it to anybody, as long as they can deal with any issues that ensue. If they can't, I'd recommend they stick with Windows.
In before the move perhaps..this should be posted in he HD2 Android General section with the other 100 "whats the best?"
So don't know if the question is as clear as it should be, but I just wanted to know if there was a way to get a list of all the base builds of Android we can put on our HD2's.
From what I know, we have an
Evo base,
Desire base,
HD Desire base,
Stock Android Rom from the Nexus 1,
Streak base,
Glacier (MyTouch4G) and
Cyanogen base. Not sure if there are others but I just wanted to confirm what the builds are based on. Did I miss one? Should one go into another category?
If anyone can help or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
No one has any ideas?

No problem.
There's a few others, like Defrost and Ultimatedroid, but they are both strongly based on Cyanogen base (sounds weird), so they're not really worth mentioning.

Are any of those on this forum? I may have seen the Ultimatedroid, but I've never used it and I've never heard of Defrost.
Reason why I'm asking is we get so many questions from people new to the site and I was hoping to compile a list of the current ROMS we can put on our HD2s from this site and what they were based off of and whats working for everyone. I haven't seen that yet even though I'm still looking.

I understood completely, that's why I said what I said. If you want to start a completely new thread with a complete list of ROMS then it would have to go into the HD2 forums, but if you were going to list Android Builds then you are in the right place. Once you go into Android Builds within the HD2 forums then there you go. But, it sounds like you want recommendations and are waiting on those to compile a list. I would start the thread, ask for input and then update your list.

No you either didn't understand his question, or are just replying completely irrelevant. He's compiling a list of bases, not builds, which you seem to be referring to. Big difference, and compiling a list of bases isn't just going through the topics list.
@TS: First of all, when speaking of Android we call it builds here, because we run it from SD card. ROMs refer to WinMo. Just a small detail.
Both Ultimatedroid and Defrost have been used in JDMS. Version 1.1 (I believe) had CM, 1.5 was Defrost and 1.6 now has Ultimatedroid.
I've been hearing many people complimenting about [MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v2.6 A2SD+].
I am a total beginner. So, i am just curious about this rom.
What's makes it worth the talk i am thinking? Or are there any rom that is very outstanding as well?
Honestly, I believe it is quite hard to compare.
Anyone care to enlighten?
I would like to know how they differ from each other.
Any form of help is appreciated, even links to guide.
Thanks in advance.

Its all a matter of opinion....hard to answer your question. The way i pick a rom to try out is...
Look for one that was recently updated
Read the first posts from the developer..your looking for changelogs, and whats working and not working.
Remember the date of the last update....go to the end of the thread and read all the way back to the date of the last update. This will let you see problems other users have found. Decide if these problems are related to the build or user error. Most will be user error. If you dont see a lot of complaints or problems with ...gps, data, wifi or phone turns into a blood sucking vampire then flash it and see for yourself. This is the ONLY way to find yhe best rom for you.
Believe it or not every hd2 is different. They all react differently to setups that are exactly the same. Its weird and hard to explain so just believe it.
2.15 radio
2.2miui stock via cwm
definately one of the most stable & smooth IMO. ive tried quite a few other ROMs and always end up flashing back to MDJ CM7 2.6 good for daily use

I totally agree with the statement above, and while mdj's rom was "stable" for my particular hd2, so are many other roms, its all about your personal preference i would say get clockwork working and make a few nand backups of roms you like and switch off every few days until you find the one for you, but do as you want man, they are all pretty awesome with unique features, i think mdj's build is slightly outdated due to kernel and system breakthroughs as of late... just my personal opinion though, decide for yourself

For .zip roms, you gotta use CWM to install. a little more confusing at first. But you will know how as you read more. For now, try to get use to flashing NAND.

I am pretty sure that your guys are tried of topics like these already but i dont know where else to go . Can you guys please help me figure out which NAND android Rom would be the best suitable for me?
this is what i need my phone to do :
*use it as an everyday rom so has to be pretty stable.
* need normal phone operations working e.g - GPS, Bluetooth, texting,dialing,speaker phone, wifi,camera,video camera,flash
*want flash,swype ,app2sd,internet tethering with usb and wifi hotspot and of course the android market app.
*A somewhat fast rom , and need to be able install and use apps from the sd card. live wallpapers would be cool but not a necessity.
Again in advance I am really sorry if i came across as smug or needy or ignorant or not willing to use the search feature.That was not my intention , read a lot of posts here and there forums and all different kind of roms are only confusing me further.Thats why i registered and decided to write this post.I'll post this at XDA as well hope i get some help .
again thats in advance and sorry if my post was annoying, just trying to learn.

depends whether you want with or without "sense"
core droid has sense
tytung does not
Most of the things you outlined like GPS etc. work on every ROM now.

dont like ice cream
Why not read one of the existing threads about which build is best and base your decision from that? Just so you know, there is no right and wrong answer. Just because I like Hispanic chicks, with fat #$%$# doesn't mean you have to like Hispanic chicks with fat #$^#$.
Really??? What I do is read the entire build thread usually there are one to four pages about each build on each indivisual ROM. This is where you are going to obtain information about the ROM itself. Then download one, hell download 10 try them out. I am personally a fan of the Desire ROM's.

There is no way you can expect a Guy to come in here and read all the build threads in their entirety, and I also find it hard to believe you do. Just recommend the Guy a solid nand rom, I would but I'm only running SD builds with wp7 on nand

I HAVE and do read the entire build thread on the ones I am interested in, doing so is a good idea. Again this is where you get the information about the build. It is only going to take 5-10 minutes to read through an entire developers first post (1-4 pages max) So lets see, if you read through 12 builds at 5 minutes you have only invested an hour of time and gained a lot of knowledge. Most builds take about 30 minutes to download so while you are downloading ONE build you can educate yourself on at least 5 other builds you might be interested in. Some builds I start reading turn me off right away, those I dont bother going back too. Also if you are too lazy to read through a build then you are probably going to install it wrong and spend double the amount of time it should of taken. I AM JUST SAYING!
TO THE OP:
I like desire builds:

I'm not saying i have read every single thread in relation to a certain build that i may have flashed on my phone but ive read a lot on here and have flashed a lot, no interest in WINMO anymore although i used to especially like the NRG ROM's also Laurentius but as regards Android until such time a stable Honeycomb build comes about ill stick with Sergio Coredroid it is IMO the best there is, i must give a mention to previous builds ive had which were excellent like Darkstones NAND SUPERAM,exceptionally fast but discontinued, also MDJ, Xboarder and Rafpigna but Sergio's is for me no 1.
I used what is called ...."most stable" froyo 2.2 . GPS dont work.

I've read the first, and last five pages of almost every NAND build thread. He needs to do what we did, and install different builds until he finds one that suits his needs. Like it's been said a thousand times, just because I like hispanic chicks doesn't mean he's going to like Hispanic chicks.
Plus, he could have opened one of the numerous, "what rom is best?" threads and gotten the same answer he would have gotten here.
It also makes me laugh that you're calling buddy a liar. If you're so concerned with the OP getting a solid build, then why don't you toss the SD version, install all of the NAND builds, and turn in an essay about which build is best?

No problem bro. LOL @ the guy calling you a liar. Some people amaze me.
seriously guys , my intention was not to create a problem.I am not lazy either, i have done my fair share of reading but you have to understand for a guy who has no idea about linux or android ( except that its a kickass software for phones) all the information out there could be a little overwhelming.I didn't read quiet a few" which rom is the best " and they all confused me even more .The most prevalent answers those pots got was a lot a bashing with some " every rom is different , pick one that suits your needs" . Thats why when i started my thread i specifically mentions what i "desired" from the rom.I am really confused about the phone now. Some people on other forums are saying that since HD2 wasn't made for Android you would't get a stable rom for everyday use it is sure to mess up.Its posts like these that are confusing me even more and i am actually thinking about returning the phone and take the easy route of getting a samsung Vibrant.
again thanks for all the guys who mentioned their roms and the ones thats tried to help .honestly just because someone is asking a question doest mean that they were lazy and didnt read anything . If i didn't read anything then i would't have known about NAND .
PS: i love hispanic chicks with huge @%%^ too. Infact i love them all with huge )*##*#
