[Solved] Genius Button for Sense ROM's other than Iced Glacier? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been switching back and forth between several ROM's and I've been using Iced Glacier 1.1.4 as my everyday ROM for about 2 weeks now. I really like it because I can use most all the features that came with the phone when I bought it.
I do like the Genius Button and use the car dock when I'm driving to give voice commands/read texts while driving. Can I use the Genius Button with any of the new Sense ROM's that are being developed (Evil D's)? And if yes, then how?
And maybe a side question... Is wifi calling working with any of Evil D's ROM's for the MT4G?
Really happy to see how much the development has come along since the phone launched.... Great work guys!

The genius button works with Gorilla's ROM, and I know the Wi-Fi Calling works with eVil D's Desire HD, Desire Z and G2 ROMs not sure about MIUI

Thanks I'll try his out. Is it like the HD Rom from Evil? Or is it like Iced Glacier?

it's similar to eVil D's Desire HD ROM, it has higher OC and some other tweaks and apps added, he also has a couple of themes you can flash over his
edit: only thing giving issues with genius button on Gorilla's ROM is when trying to use it to do a text it brings up the person but doesn't put the body of the text in the window.

It is in the devolopment forum but here is the link. http://files.androidspin.com/downloa...5.1_signed.zip
And the reason you dont have the market with CM is you need to download and install Gapps.zip for all CM roms. They are not included.
Not really sure why everyone seems to swear by iced glacier on here (other than its been out Longest) but I personally enjoy the sense ROMs provided by evil and gorilla a lot. The look of true HTC sense is beautiful by itself, though there are a lot of ways to theme them to your own liking. Plus, you get your HTC widgets by default, as well as other awesome HTC services. Plus, if speed is your thing, both can be overclocked. Battery life is good in both.
Anyhow, that's my two cents. Everyone has theit own opinions on what ROMs are best, and that's mine.

I dont swear by Ice Glacier. It is a good rom, but the others you mentioned are very good also. It is really about what you like personally. That is the great thing about Android and a rooted phone. You can check them all out and then decide what you like. All of them can be themed and every one can be overclocked for speed. Including Ice Glacier.

Best sense ROM?

Just curious and wondering what is the best sense rom in terms of batter life?

I have virtuous running on one of the phones in the house, it runs great.
Lol just try the roms for yourself my friend and see which one you like

I could do that.. but id like to hear what the general public says before adventuring into the world of sense roms. I'm running virtuous Rom right now. It's okay. Seems little laggy. Should be faster on the g2 then the evo which i have in front of me as we speak. Id like to say the G2 is much faster than the evo.

Are you using the standard or advanced kernel, and if the latter what are you OC'ing your phone to? I'm using the standard kernel, and my phone doesn't seem laggy at all. There are the occasional moments of slowness, but nothing to the point where I would consider it troublesome to me.

I'm using the advanced kernel, overclocked to 1.0ghz. I like the TeamVillian Sense rom, cant stand the bugy landscape mode..
Does anyone know of a Sense-based ROM which has the Bluetooth A2DP bitpool size problem fixed?

Virtuous ROM 1.0.1 with Standard Kernel @ 1GHz for me. No lag what-so-ever and working great! lovin' it

Suggestions for a solid/stable ROM -> So many to choose from

Hey xda,
I just got a HTC G2, straight of ebay. I'll be following the tutorials posted to perma-root, CID unlock and S-off (not using visionary).
My only question and concern is, just because I am new to this phone, apart from CM being at the top, what other roms are stable? fast? and reliable? (decent battery life, not too many fc's etc)
I'm very much interested in something with HTC Sense, but meh, am willing to compromise if its too buggy. I've been reading here and there that there are tons of problems with scaling etc when phones switches from portrait/landscape etc.
Any suggestions will be great! Thank you for reading this far!!
Sorry, but you're going to have to do what everyone else does. Try them out and decide for yourself.
Hello and welcome!
My suggestions:
If you want sense, look up Virtuous 1.0.2 for froyo. If you want sense 3.0, look up Virtuous Fusion 1.0.0.
If you want stock android, look up Virtuous G-lite 1.0.2.
All of the above ROMs are by the same dev, are very stable and I have used all of the above. Currently using G-lite because as much as I love sense, it does take alot of memory.
As posted before, try the ROMs for about a week each and see how you like them. It's all personal preference.

I couldn't agree more; as far as ROMs go, rmk's are the most stable. CyanogenMod7 is actually extremely buggy still on the G2 (at least, when I used it a few weeks ago). While CM7 is probably the fastest ROM I've used, there are lots of little things that don't work correctly, and newer builds sometimes will break things that worked on older builds. I'm currently running G-Lite and I'm extremely satisfied.

Cm6.1.1 is nice and stable with decent battery life. It isn't as aesthetically pleasing as the myriad gingerbread releases but it gets the job done and can be tweaked to appear incredibly 'speedy' by using spare parts from the app market and Launcher Pro.
Ill throw my vote in there for Pyrorom. Its fast and is based off of CM7 if I remember correctly. I had tried a few, but as soon as I booted Pyro, I knew it was the one.
Good luck anyways.

fwiw I have yet to find another ROM as stable as GingerVillain 1.5 with the 4.02.17 radio. Everything works perfect and I can get 18 hours battery life.
Tried Glite 1.02, super smooth, great ROM with the 4.30 radio BUT could not get the bluetooth to pair. Plus a few minor quirks with the camera flash not working. This is mostly due to the hw differences between the G2 and desire Z. I have a bell Can Desire Z
if u don't want sense...
If you have a G2, go for Glite 1.02 otherwise GV 1.5 is stable and can't be beat ..yet imo
Cm7 has been the only rom I stayed with. I tried sense roms and wanted to pull NY hair out, I simply just cannot stand sense.

Can I flash stock sense 3.0 rom on DHD?

Hi
I know there are various custom roms and RCMix Rom for DHD which give you sense 3.0. but I was wondering if I am able to flash a stock HTC Sensation ROM onto my DHD?
just like to keep the stop font and menus. Apologies if this has been raised before, I have searched before posting this and failed miserably..
thanks and appreciate your help
cheers
NO
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
It isn't possible.
If you for example compare the specs of Sensation and DHD, you will find out that the hardware in these two phones are quite different. That's why ROMs are usually ported to fit another device. There ain't a working Sensation ROM for the DHD yet.
of course not.
but you can try some ported sense 3.0 roms from

Thats like asking if you can run Apple Mac OS on your PC. Out of the box its certainly not possible but 1337 hax0rs have been able to find a way.
I tried the Virtuous Unity port and it seems nice but nothing so amazing I'd **** my pants over it. Sense 2.1 with Sense 3.0 additions seems like a better proposition at this stage to me at least.
you can try using rcmix roms... they have sense 3.0 ported .. it works perfectly too (i am using one) no bugs and very stable ..here is the link

+1, I've been using the ARHD 5.1.x roms with the Sense 3.0 all-in-one package and it's a great way to experience Sense 3.0. I've also heard the RCMix roms are pretty nice as well. I have recently switched to the Virtuous Unity 1.26.0 rom and I'm lovin' it!

Running Virtuous Affinity, modified a bit by me.
Doubleshot camera for correct FFC functionality.
The ROM has more quirks than Sense 3.0, and I dislike the new Calendar, but I got kinda used to it. Maybe I'll try to override it with Sense 3.0 calendar. Or maybe I'll go back to Sense 3.0 and work out the Calendar issues there (there is a bug in VU, working with Exchange Calendar and multi-contact invitations is problematic - the first person is overridden by the phone user, and when opening the event for editing, it crashes). Still thinking about it.
