Difference between cm7 and royalginger? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just recently started learning how to root and flash. I flashed my mytouch 4g with cm7 stable I started wondering what is the difference between cm7 and royalginger rom?

RoyalGinger is much faster and has alot of the unnecessary stuff cut out of it. It is based off of CM7, so if you like CM7, you should give it a try.

I think I will give it a try then if its based off of this rom, and this one is tons better over stock. Just hate going through everything and customizing to my liking.

Yea, but with RoyalGinger, it is definitely worth it.

[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.

Define "best rom", you may get more responses.

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

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.

Which is the most stable rom?

So which rom would be the best day to day rom?

CM7 is the best right now I believe, it has everything working.

The nightly or rc2
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Agreed!
I've used quite a few of the different ROM's on here and Cyanogen's CM7 is the best.
Very stable. I'm really not a fan boy either because I eventually switched over to SuperD's ROM for the Mytouch 3G.
I'm currently running Royal Glacier and I've been getting some weird force closes and other stuff that I didn't have with CM7.
Try as many as you like. Do a backup and run with one for a few days to see if you like it. You can always switch back.
Edit: They just posted up CM7 RC3
CM7 is the most stable gingerbread rom you'll find.

Royal glacier vs iced glacier vs orange glacier

I'm tired of crackflashing. I've stayed on cm7 for a while, was about to upgrade to final last night but I think I'm done. so what's your favorite stockbased rom?
Sent from my myTouch 4G using XDA App
Once a crackflasher.... always a crackflasher
As far as sense roms .. I love orange. Very smooth. Good battery life... but could never get mms to work using wificalling.
If you aren't reliant on wificalling... then I highly recommend it.

I love royal awesome. Better than iced haven't tried orange
HTC Glacier Black, Royal Glacier V1.2,droid boot sound, rooted splash, blazing....
My fav is RoyalGlacier Fast, smooth and all stock features available. A new version of it is coming out soon.
ive tried all and these are my top 3 in order:
evil 4g
royalglacier
ice glacier
all with new kernel youll get the best battery life and speed. im on royalglacier now and its faster than every other rom i tried minus gingerbread because im not a fan. but sense wise evil 4g is the way to go. if you want stock look and speed/battery long life choose royal glacier.
I don't want sense. stock=expresso
Sent from my myTouch 4G using XDA App
Stock is MySense. It just a slimmer version of HTC Sense. I personally think HTC Sense is far better than MySense. I would go with Royal Glacier if it were me.
FWIW I hate Sense with a passion. I went from CM7 to Royal Glacier to RoyalThunder to now RoyalGinger. I'll stay with Royal Ginger most likely until I get a new phone.

I like Royal Glacier just flashed it seems very snappy and fast, but I have noticed some battery drain? I just flashed version 1.2 and that's it. Do I need to do anything else?

No you don't need to do anything else except, if you like, download and install updated faux's froyo/sense kernel, which I use, from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941141) or any other kernels that you like.
Flashed over the new kernel...still seem to get battery drain? I am thinking of re-reflashing the royal glacier rom but with added sounds that I will put into the notifications. Will I have redo everything or can I leave the kernel as is?
Using evil 4G with new cfs kernel. Great combo

I have tried Evil and Gorilla's Desire HD Rom's, Ice Glacier, CM 7, Royal Thunderbolt...have never ran into any issues on either of those. Each phone is unique and will not give you the same results. My advice is to decide what you like stock or sense and then try the different roms out and go from there.

Once your "rooted" and your no longer running stock there is no such thing of "100% FULLY working"..
But try CM7 nightlies there awesome.
You can give my AOSP 1.0.1 a shot... It is functional... I don't believe it has any visible bugs...
My vote is on Orange sense, such a great Rom haven't found much, if anything at all, wrong with it

I have no problems with Royal Ginger 1.6. Its awesome, I run this one all the time.

Not to be a party pooper, but shouldn't this be in Q&A?
Yes it should be in Q&A.
But, with any AOSP Rom you are going to have data slowdown. After a while of the phone being in standby the data will drop to about 1mb downloads. WiFi will cap at about the same.
Once you toggle airplane mode it wakes something up and you will have your usual speed back.
No one has been able to solve this yet, and is the only drawback to aosp.

I been runnin royalginger v1.4.1 for the longest & never had an issue,internet speeds never slowed dwn & wifi was just plain fast,as for 2.2 royalglacier has been the most stable,Team Royal's rom are smooth,fast & stable but again once rooted no rom is 100%,**** no phone is 100%.....
Roylalthunder is a great and fast Rom too and your speeds increase as well

Royal glacier is the most stable build I've ever had on a phone. It's so good that I have a brand new g2x that isn't being used at the moment.

[Q] Whats better....? CM7 or RoyalGinger 1.6

Over all i want to know comparison please if y'all can help! If you had to choose which one would be better CM7 or RoyalGinger 1.6. I am on CM7 just trying to see if its worth getting RG1.6 help me out here!! Thanks in advance!!!!!
CM7 Nightlies
Thanks I'm really liking it but I heard the RG looks great and saves battery life
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I switched from cm7 to royal Ginger 1.6. Very fast and responsive. Moving from screen to screen is quick. Apps load up fast. Actually i am having trouble using up my battery everyday before charging it at night. Sometimes it will last two days without needing to be charged. Coupled with faux's latest kernel Cfs lv I have not run into any problems so far. Signals are good and strong.

I moved from CM7 to RG1.6 and can say it runs a bit faster and good on battery.

I have to give that a try sometime. faux keeps releasing a new version every day...i am tempted. I have always been fan of pure google experience (and then customize on my own)
use the new CM7 (7.0.2) its very stable.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
If you want pure aosp that is fast as hell without the extra crap... get faux's rom. Its amazing.

Don't really like questions like this but every rom is different. It is all personal preference. Your phone is different as well it may not like certain roms. You should do try out different roms to see what your phone likes best.

Running faux's AOSP rom! Fabulous!

which one is better...
I think what is being asked here is not which one is better, because that answer would be based on opinion; the info sought here is what are the ups and downs of each ROM so he will know which one would be best for him.

The only way to know based on your own preference is to try them all. It only takes a few minutes to change roms. I suggest you try them all for a few days each ans go from there.
My personal preference is pure Google. I hate extra stuff. Some people need a little flavor so CM is great. Just try them all and make your own choice

I would say that is the best thing to do try them all... I'll be honest with ya out of the GB experience i like what Royal Ginger has done lately and the new Cm7 is really really stable good experience.. But i always and i mean always go back to Royal Glacier (mysense) i know i know.. but it's fast as hell in my eyes.... and i have ALL of my phones functions... anyways, to each his own..
Cm7 is og and royalginger is bg meanning baby gangstar
