Are there any screenshots or threads that give detailed descriptions of the Desire Z and Desire HD rom?

So far it seems Ice Glacier is the best ROM for this phone, there are bugs in the others. The G2 has more development to date though. I'm not disappointed in the least bit with this phone, wish there were more custom ROMs though.

Try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878320 Evil's done a GREAT JOB. It's the best I've seen and coming to an MT4G from an EVO, it feels better, snappier with that HTC look I've grown acustomed to, but even better than my rooted EVO. No espresso, no Tmobile pink, it's hard core HTC with all the goodies and boosted speed. It's amazing!...in my opinion.

Personally I would go with virtuous. Even though it's still in beta, it seems to have lots of fixes.

[Q] favorite Rom?

I just got the mytouch, and I was wondering if there is a consensus best rom, our favorite rom. I saw that iced-glacier has the most replies, so I assume that probably is what is most used.
Which rom do you guys suggest I flash?
iced glacier is a very good rom if u like mysense. i personally am more of a stock type person and am loving cm7.1
personally i use cm 7.1 which is android 2.3 iced glacier among others are very strong roms. it just depends what kind of user you are. the mysense and sense have a lot of nice things to them but tend to be bloated a bit. i prefer a more basic, stock experience.
Hmm folks on this forum are a lot less opinionated than other forums.
Thanks for the input guys.

I guess by best, I meant what is everyone's favorite rom.
I wondered if there is a rom that most prefer over the others. Thanks for the suggestion.

Ian currently using the gorilla sense enjoy it but I think personally ny face is the MIUI, it just needs a lite more added to it
Just my Input
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Well not very impressed by the Android's joke attempt at mockery of linux ppc but I have like 10days to return the device lol so today I flashed Iced Glacier. Ill test it and see as I can't stand the stock bolted version. My next target is Evil 4G HD, GorillaSens DHD and then CM7 if I like it I just might keep the device. After all I can't refuse it for the hardware implication.
My favorite is iced glacier because I get the best battery life with moderate to heavy use.

Thanks for the input. I tried all the sense roms and I am sticking with gorilla for a little while.

In my experience, The best daily driver ROM is Iced Glacier v1.0.4 which is found here , its pretty much closest to the stock ROM feel without the bloatware, 1.7Ghz over clock ready, and is already themed and optimized. It is Mysense based (Stock Mytouch UI) which IMO not really a bad UI, to each their own... And since the Stock ROM that came with the mytouch already works very well, this definitely has the least issues if theres even any, out of all the ROMs available right now.
Alot of stable ROMs are out there right now so I still suggest you try them, and see for yourself
Best looking ROM MIUI by Evil D
If you want android AOSP based ROM, then its a given CM ROM by Zinc
Good luck and happy flashing
I am a huge fan of AOSP ROM's so as of current i am using Cyanogen's CM6.1.2RC2, I tried I/G but i felt it was slower than the stock 2.2.1. CM6.1.2RC2 FLIES when i comes to speed.
I am using cm7 ROM, love it....Before that I was using iced glacier, which was my favorite because it was most stable, and optimized..got great performance and great battery life out of it.

Help please

Im running a rooted desire at moment got my dhd today on upgrade i was going to sell it and keep my desire. Is this a bad idea? Just havent looked into the rooting scene with the dhd is it as easy and is thr as many roms ect?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I went from a Hero to a DHD so the jump was massive, but I'm not sure you will notice that much of an improvement over a Desire.
Rooting is very easy if you know what you're doing though, and there are some great ROMs available. Probably not as many as Desire, but the quality is there.
Why not take a look where all the magic happens:

I'd use the DHD as it's newer and has bigger screen etc, but ultimately your decision

Desire HD ROM?

Is there a Desire HD Rom anywhere for the G2?? I know there is a Desire S ROM.. but I would imagine that's not about the same as the HD rom?

There is absolutely no need to be a ****. Did you get this far (in your apparent superior knowledge) without ever asking a question? And have you as a human being ever asked a stupid question? Id bet money you have. And to my knowledge there is no Desire HD rom out currently. cheers!

I might be wrong here, but I thought the Desire Z and Desire HD stock ROMs were identical (from a features viewpoint). I've got the Desire Z and my friend has a Desire HD and whilst I'm now on CM7, her HD looks/feels exactly like my Z did (well a little bit quicker probably because of the bigger CPU)
They launched about the same time and were both originally the only ones which could use htcsense.com as well so realistically if you're just looking for a Sense ROM for your G2 I would just suggest Virtuous (which to me felt like the stock ROM, but a million times better) or one of the other DZ ROMs. Hope this is of some help!

What diff in HD rom?
Well it might be the same sense but you would still need to port it. Remember Disire Z has a keyboard and HD does not.

You mean the Desire HD and the Desire Z, I think.
Desire S is Gingerbread.
there is a desire hd gingerbread sense rom, but its exactly the same as the desire s rom. no point in porting it.

[Q] ICS Sense port?

I noticed that the Sensation now has a leaked alpha HTC ICS ROM with Sense. I know that other ROMs have in the past been ported between HTC devices. Is there any chance the Sensation ROM could get ported over?
Marseillesw was trying last I heard. If he is making progress, its going to be tough. There are no ICS Sense kernels for our device, and according to TDJ, "Good luck. Sense kernels are a b****."
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
let's hope once there's a new HTC device with sense and ICS, then that can be the source
better yet... does sense 4.0 with ICS sound good?

I was wondering the same thing. HTC pretties up stock "Vanilla" Andriod, but ICS looks pretty good as is. They'd have to bust out some serious magic to make me want it.

Yes but what I'm saying is there's already an HTC device with official Sense and ICS - it's not a final build but it's direct from HTC. So there is a source available.

HTC has been working hard to get its Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades ready, and we’re excited to announce that our first round of ICS upgrades will roll out by the end of March for the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation 4G and HTC Sensation XE, followed soon there after by the HTC Sensation XL.
In addition, we can confirm Ice Cream Sandwich upgrades will be coming later this year to the HTC Rezound, HTC Vivid, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC Desire HD. Stay tuned for more updates on Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming weeks.

Given that they'll eventually bring the Desire S and Desire HD to ICS... at that point you'd probably be able to make a fully functional ICS port. I may be wrong but doesn't one of those phones even have the exact same camera hardware as Glacier? That'd provide us with a driver.
Mind you I have already moved on to GNex land
Seems cool. But looks like all of the good MT4G devs are gone now since I had the phone couple months ago.

Yeah, my port was a pain in the ass since at the moment we don't have a working 3.0 kernel. However once the official is out for dhd, porting the rom and kernel libs will be much easier. One the bright side, keep ur eyes open in the dev thread the next few days...can't say much more lol
