Update: attempting root, flash etc... help a brother out, lol
I keep editing my last post for problems I am finding, thx
what i've seen so far are other way round, that is rooting could make you unable to get OTA updates..
you can find rooting guides and roms in development section

I noticed u are from SG.. have u got the DHD yet or still waiting like the rest of us?
To the TS, there's a good sticky in the DHD Android Dev section, the very first thread by Ivo.. u should read that.

I read somewhere that the OTA could possibly stop me from rooting my phone? Is there somewhere/something specific I should check before I make the attempt?
With the help of this forum, I did get into rooting my nexus one... and flashing often... but if someone could point me to a proper how to.... and a known solid rom/kernel....
I would appreciate it, thx in advance

this is quite OT, but I was wondering how come DHDs overclocked to 1.5Ghz can achieve 3k+ Quadrant scores but the G2 needs to be OCed to 1.8 or 1.9Ghz to achieve similar scores? The extra RAM of the DHD makes so much difference?
Well its a different processor, not just lower clocked.
I dont know the specs off the top of my head but i would guess it has smaller caches. That does make a difference. I doubt ram comes into it for most of the benchmarks.

thx for that, I had a brutal day at work... and then I had a very, very late "tour" at a correctional facility..... so i did not get to any of this. Hopefully tomorrow.... I absolutely love this phone and case..... my windows 7 phone came today... and wifi compared to wife.... the dhd destroys it.... not to mention... things look normal on the dhd... on the w7p, it looks like crap until you zoom in... I just wanted to try the phone for myself, lol
so for me, it all comes down to 2g vs 3g.... dhd is better has down, for many things and reasons..... but the 2g vs 3g is causing me turmoil... oh well, once I root and see the goodness... maybe it will be a much easier decision

Not going to lie, I had NO idea what I was doing... but I think I just stumbled through it all.....
are the kernels dangerous.... how can I test/check to see if it is worthwhile.... will they drain the battery even more so? thx
Depending what kernel and what clock speed you set, you should be able to underclock to around 700 +/- mhz and not have any noticeable slow downs.
Just make sure you set a lower speed when your screen is off and you battery will last upwards of 24 hours.
thx, I just that 1.51 one for now.... seems to be working well, I put a profile in for screen off.... dropping it to 256-756 or whatever it is! did some light benching, angry birds, no lag or issues so far.... woke up and the phone is still alive, lol

Just curious, as that is why I am not putting the latest FreshToast v1 on my phone - I use the camera every day...
So, are there any overclocked ROMs with the camera?? That would be great!

OK, so I am supposed to read 10,000 pages of random comments about the custom ROMs instead of asking?
I have searched by the way, and found no definitive answer. If it's obvious and you know the answer, why not post "no" or "yes" instead of the wise-ass reply?
And if the answer is not obvious - well, that's why I posed the question.

WOW! That must be new.... there is a search on here?
putting it simply, if there was an overclocked rom with working camera, everyone would copy that and have the same thing. then it would be easy to find one. did you see any roms on the front page with working camera and overclock?
ill hijack this thread...id like to see a stable 2.1 rom with everything working but stripped of sense totally, can it happen?
Only if you run a 1.5 rom.
I released a modified boot.img and wlan.ko that you can patch gumbo 1.5c rom with.
you can find it here http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-hero-roms-hacks/10138-gumbo-1-5c-overclock.html
I made it for my own personal use and just put it out there for anyone who might want it. All I did was apply the patch to the boot.img from gumbo 1.5c tweaker edition then flashed it to my phone. I was already running gumbo 1.5c tweaker edition so it has only been tested to work flashed over that.
It most likely would flash just fine over any 1.5 rom, but it will add gumbos custom low memory killer and a script that modifies the cpu scaling. If you use it you can't use setcpu. The rom already does what setcpu does.
If you do want it, flash at your own risk, and make sure to backup first.
I could release an overclocked 1.5 kernel that does not use gumbo, or is based off another rom if there is any demand for it, but I think with 2.1 around the corner, and so many almost fully functional 2.1 roms out there, the only people that would even be interested are those who can't run a 2.1 rom due to audio loss issues. that is not too many.

I compiled the oc patch into a 1.5 boot.img based off of gumbo 1.5c tweaker. Post #9 in this thread!
I am getting similar benchmarks as a OC 2.1 rom w/o JIT.
3.1 MFLOPS on linpack
28-29 fps on neocore not killing any tasks
6535 ms on benchmark Pi.
Stock 1.5 rom was
26 fps with all tasks killed
2.36 MFLOPs linpack
10635 ms benchmark pi
Thanks for the info obelisk, justin and obchaos.
Now, was that so hard? ;-)
For the rest of you, just because the search function does not yield an answer does not mean the answer is not out there, now does it?
I had better not see any of you ever posting a question on here ;-)
In any case, I remember 2.1 did not have the camera working for a while, then someone fixed it, right? So it seems that this is not a crazy question to ask.

i dunno about overclocked ones. you could use autokiller off the market to free up a ton of ram. i know setcpu does not work on 2.1
This is probably a stupid question but I was just curious. I know the rooting procedure is nearly identical for both so I thought I would ask.
With my MT3G I would often look through the G1 section for ROMs, wondering if it will be the same way here?

Most of the roms in the magic forum were geared toward 32a anyway, but i don't anticipate that being an issue with mt4g. Let's see what happens.

lol, yup. I overclock the **** out of my mt3g, but that's because it desperately needs it. Just flashed ezterry's 614 kernel the other night, and wow, what an improvement. It's still slow, but not nearly as bad as it was.
Once I have a clean version of Android on the mt4g (CM6 or anything without sense) I can't imagine I'll ever need to overclock.

That's true. When I first OC'd my mt3g to 245-528, it ran much faster and battery life actually improved significantly. Why in the HELL they didn't set it that way from the factory is beyond me.
Hey everyone back again with another poll for 2011 results on January 1st, 2011 of what ROM is the fastest ROM period. We ARE NOT talking battery life or anything else just PURE PERFORMANCE. So post your your vote by stating:
- what ROM you are using
- what kernal
- overclock speed
- JIT or No JIT

okay after getting the moving and deleting situated its time to get this show on the road....i'll kick it off

ROM - LiquidSense 2.1 Stable
Kernal - Zen's AnyKernel with no Perflock
JIT - N/A
Other Performance Additions - N/A
this by far is the fastest in my opinion....if this rom ends up tying with another rom then i'll go into DEEP explanation as to why i think this is the fasest "on the market" in our debate between the top 2 if there ends up being a tie (btw roms are NOT available on the market i'm just saying that as like the fastest rom available lol )

Correct. I meant not OC'd above what it is by default, which is 691mhz I believe.
I have used a lot of different ROMs and so far the fastest has been NFX stock ROM. CM6.1 was very nice but had moments of lag. I keep a Nandriod of it because I want it be my ROM of choice but when ever I actually you it, I get frustrated and go back to NFX.

I haven't updated my ROM in a while, mainly because I don't have the time to. I was running Baked Snack 1.9, but now I want to upgrade to Gingerbread.
There are tons of ROMS in the development forum, and I'm not sure which one to pick. I'm not really concerned with how a ROM looks, since I'm going to load LauncherPro on there anyway.
So, here are the requirements that I have:
- Running Gingerbread
- 4G, GPS, both cameras supported
- Good battery life
- HDMI mirroring
- No FPS limit
- Preferably can run CIFS Manager
Is there anything else that I should be looking for??
Thanks in advance!

OFFICIALLY CM7 says it supports 4G.
However, my experience with CM7 WiMax has been shoddy at best. If you move from a 4G area to a non-4G area then back, most of the time the 4G breaks and you must reboot your phone to reconnect. Even if you stay in a 4G area, sometimes the 4G simply drops out, and you are stuck with both 4G and 3G icons on the screen, once again having to reboot to restore the 4G. There are some work-arounds, but it's definitely not stable, even in RC3. Don't even get me started on trying to wireless tether via 4G on CM7, even if you are lucky enough to get it to connect, you get about 2-3Mbits down whereas on Sense with Wireless Tether for Root Users you get 5-6 Mbits down.
Very annoying.
Anyway, I've given up on CM until the 4G issues are ironed out. I'm not paying an extra $10 a month for 4G if it's not stable enough to use.
My recommendation is to hop over to a MikFroyo ROM. It's as stable an fast as I've seen with everything working. You can apply themes and mods to get the Gingerbread look you want while you wait with the rest of us for the EVO to get official 2.3 support.
Good luck and hope this helped!

there are tons of reasons to root, as you probably know. i would like to use CIFS manager, tether, and use HDMI mirroring.
i was not aware that the stock rom now has unlocked FPS, but this was why i went to a non-stock rom in the first place. but now that i've gone to non-stock, i find that they are faster and have better battery life than stock.
Very tru they are way better with way more options. Idk wat the cifs is. But as far as tether goes there is pda-net for stock. But imho half the fun of rooting is trying all the roms from all the fabulous devs here on xda. It really doesn't take to long to see if a particular Rom is for u. Especially if u have TB. Then if a Rom isn't for u just nand restore to ur old Rom and in my experience its about 20 mins to try it and restore if its not for you. Plus everyone will have their own opinion about a Rom so in order for u to kno which one is for u u gotta try it

I gotta stick up for the OP here a little bit. He's asking for our help, and that's not a helpful comment to ask him "Why root?"
Not having to pay $30 to tether your EVO to a PC was reason enough for me. Or to overclock. Or to theme it to the max. There are many reasons to root.
This is a community for people who want to make the most of their phones. That is why we root.
Please don't come to XDA and ask "Hurr durr why did you root if you're not gonna blah, blah."
If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all, amirite?

Now I'm not trying to be rude. I see this same q on here all the time and ppl usually give their opinion about the Rom they like. Then proceed to say they need to try them to find the one they like. And op is saying he doesn't have time to do that. It's just odd to me that ppl go and root their phone then ask for others to tell them wat the best Rom is. And that's a subjective term. I agree that paying for tethering and all the other charges are bs but honestly if ur gonna root its cool to ask for ppls opinions about the "best" Rom but if u don't have time to try them y bother. So somebody says so and so Rom is the best then he trys it and hates it so y not just try them urself. Usually the op for the roms will tell u what works and not working

Sorry if I jumped the gun in assuming you were rude. As you can see, I've been lurking the forums for a few months, but today is my first time posting. I can understand if you get tired of "What's the best ROM?" threads, because you are right, the "best" ROM doesn't exist, only the best ROM for YOU.
Ya no worries. I lurked for a while too. Now I post rarely trying to help when I can but I'm just a guy loving all the devs great work. And if u want a custom Rom u should c which one u like. Nobody can tell u which Rom will b best for you. Unless u can't think/decide was best for you

Two roms you must try..
First is miui. It is amazing and I gurantee you will love it. Second is destroyer v2. Its based off of cm7 and excepy for some minor quirks, mosy of which have fixes, its a great rom.
If you dont agree with something why do you guys insist on posting? This isnt your forum and your not the moderators so stop acting righteous.

Maybe becausae on the first page of this particular forum alone are 4, FOUR threads all asking the same question.
Hi ,
I have used almost al roms for the Desire Z , many are exelent , many bad.. But no-one rom is perfect. For example you can flash CM7 , very good Rom and super fast but the visuals are not like Sense..Or you can flash for example a Sense ROM , very good visuals but not so much ram , and laggy sometimes.
So this guide is for user that want to have Sense Rom's running well , and to speed up their device.
Here there are my suggestions to help you , if your sense-rom is not fast as you want , and it's laggy.
All of this suggestion try for your own risk.
Ok let's start legit..
First of all , do not use live wallpapers , because your CPU will load to much , even if you have overclocked it.
Move your apps-games into the SDCard , in this way you will keep more possible your device "clean"
Overclock your device , alias Desire Z. You can choose between a lot of kernels , my suggest is not to overclock it more than 1.3Ghz or you will have to re-boot your phone many times. I use Unity's Kernel wich allows swap , and overclocking to 2Ghz. And i remeber , to have a clean overclocking you need free ram , or your phone will be not responsable.
Use the v6Supercharger with the option "Mega Ram 2" , this is a very good script and working , i got +30MB of ram with using this script wich is a very good solution if you have a sense-rom like me. link is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
I add if you use the script to not use task-killers
Swap your SDcard , honestly i do not get to much advantages with doing it , but meybe for someone will be interesting
For now this are my small suggest's , when i will have another suggestions i will update the thread

Rom suggestion: RcMix 4.0 by NRGZ , the fastest sense-rom for now with sense 3.5
Maybe you should fix your language and your interpunction.
It makes me crazy.
Or you could use Sense 2.0 (a.k.a. Stock) until ICS is up and ready, as it has good looks AND performance.
At least that's what I did. Got sick of jumping from one ROM to another on a weekly (sometimes even daily) basis just to find one that runs smooth.
Shame, though, really love Sense 3.5.
No offence but this thread pretty useless. Mostly everybody knows about these.
Maybe you should put this in the General section so new users can know what to do.
Just my opinion.
Looks like our new mod will be doing some housekeeping pretty soon.
SWEET THREAD!

You were supposed to open this thread in Android General Thread Section (treaks and etc.), but not here. So, wrong thread section yet pretty useless.

After trying all these awesome tips my DZ is flying!!! Like..... really flying..................
Yikes guys, take it easy on the him eh?
He's only trying to be helpful, and there are a few things I just read that I did not know beforehand.
"to have a clean overclocking you need free ram"
I have noticed that my phone does slow down when I opened/exited many apps, no matter how much I overclock it. I do resort to using a rudimentary task killer at times to free up ram on CM7. That's the only way my device becomes snappy again. Either that or reboot.
The G2 has a healthy amount of RAM, but can be overwhelmed a little easily.
And yes, our phones cannot handle live wallpapers with ease. You can notice a little lag. I guess the G2 is not as high end as I once thought it was.
I'd like to know from another source before we take the better overclocking with free ram idea as gospel.
Anyone confirm this? Not through testing - with actual facts?

It's not so much that more ram = better overclock but rather more free ram = more cached processes = less calculations needed to be done by the cpu so THEORETICALLY fast processing
It's very useful tip.. for me at least.. ..thanks man..
Same here thanks for the info
It's got some useful tips actually.
But it should probably be moved to the General section.
Thanks op.
his username is xdadevolpers - so obviously this thread should be moved to the brand new devolpment section
hey, I have a tip for OP - I heard that iPhones really are the best, you never even have to remove the battery, they even got rid of that pesky battery door!
