Ok guys, so this thread is to help those who are undecided like me on which of these two roms to use. I am looking for input from people who have experienced both of them and which one do you prefer and why. Also which one is fastest, has better battery performance, best features, looks etc. Basically what sold you to that rom.
PLEASE dont take this as some sort of competition between this to DEVS, as I am sure that both of these roms are great, and maybe it comes down to personal prference, but I will like some input from the guys that have tried them both.
Im currently using WB 008 2.3.3 and it rocks!!
no problems

best answer is test them both!
ThGo2 v0.80
Simple, reliable. And I'm pretty sure it will be the first few roms to come with custom kernel of Goro, as the dev himself is also Japan based.

i liked fresh a lot and just loaded up culkins and am messing around with his and am liking it so far as well.... this dev community for this phone is crazy. It hasn't been a month yet!
lol first vote anyway im using damage right now and it works beautifully
It is subjective and best left to each person to determine which one they like best.
There are many good chefs here and that makes this community unique.
Read up on what chef has to offer and enjoy.
Avalaunchmods EVOlutionV8-Froyo. I love this ROM, I can live without a camera, for now anyway. Besides that, I'd have to say BuglessPete's latest.

Yeah, So far I really like Bugless. But just unlocked so am gonna try out FRESH!!! Can't WAIT to see where all this goes.
Right now I would give the nod to Damage Control but all the ROMs available are pretty excellent right now, and it's only going to get better, especially whenever HTC releases the source.

Click on one of your posts to edit.
Click 'Advanced settings' or something similar.
Edit.
Also, I was running BuglessBeast and then just flashed Fresh to see what it had to offer..
I'm going back to Bugless.
-No Ads
-Better battery life
-just looks a little smoother too.
That's interesting. I wounder if I get the same results, I do love Bugless though. Thanks for the feedback. I did try to edit it, but even in Advanced mode there is nothing that refers to the poll, at least that I see.
Damage control is my Rom of choice right now I love how it works battery life is better than it was before. And once the themes start rolling out it will be a rap. I wanna see a theme like froyo but with sense that would be great

Yeah, I feel ya. I like Bugless Too. But there was too many problems with his current release. The idea is good and I loved it, but too many fc issues, USB/Storage Drive issues etc. So in the meantime I hit up Froyo.
I flashed the Froyo Rom only because I don't use my camera that much. I probably use it once or twice a year at that. But anyway I flashed this Froyo and it's fast and just smooth. One of issues is that when you unplug it from a computer the LED light stays on, but most people that's using the rom just went to the market and bought this app that turns the LED off. So that's no big deal. Idk if 4g works or not either. Plus I'm not in a 4G area so it didn't matter to me. But if camera's is something you don't need everyday, chance check it out.
not sure that i have had a single one on long enough to give a truly valid opinion. So far (after i got my recovery issues fixed) they all seem pretty awesome...
I cannot believe the community that the evo is getting... its ridiculous!!
My hat is off to all the devs.... I wish i could do what you do!! Lets keep up the amazing work and keep the community fun!!
Right now I'm using froyo v8. Love it.
Damage control is also awesome
Bugless is also awesome
Fresh's is also awesome
See a trend here? Everyone should check each and every one of them out. They all excel in their own way and have tons to offer.
No vote for Baked Snack? v.7 has worked great for me ever since I flashed it. Also, the battery life on it is INSANE.
hi guys. i got a TMOUS hd2. i want to install android on it. i'm looking for the most modern, sleek looking droid out there. also, one thats fast, has excellent batt life, and has no issues. please keep in mind i'm looking for a good looking droid that looks modern. thanks!
Lots out there to try!
Are you looking for GB or not fussy?

Well, in your other thread you were talking about the iphone. Why not try MIUI? There are several fast and stable builds and looks very similar to the iphone with icons i think you may prefer. I have tested Ladyboo's build most recently and it is very stable.

Go youtube HTC HD2 Android ROMs or similar and look at newer entries. Great way to see the different ROMs in action and decide what you like. As is any thread with "best phone" or "best ROM" it all comes down to user preference.

ive been trying roms here and there but cant find the perfect one, but i want opinions on the best Sense rom and best ICS rom since im torn between the two. i personally likes sense when i had a MT4G and i like how the layout of ICS is. so opinions every one?

There is no 'best ROM'. You'll have to try them out and find one for yourself. What works for one person won't necessarily work for another. Also, if you're going to respond to this directly come up with something better than 'oh I just want opinions' because all you have to do to find that is to look in the ROM thread at some of the posts and to look at the viewcount + post count of each ROM.
Try NexusHD2 CM9 HWA by TyTung
I don't think there is an ICS ROM with Sense. Sbryan 1124 has an alpha version of the 4.0.3 Sense 4 ROM from the One V but it's not fit for daily use. Try the NexusHD2 CM9 HWA by TyTung. It's vanilla ICS but it has very few issues

thats why i said "but i want opinions on the best Sense rom and best ICS" which means i want opinions on why they think its the best, not just what i think is best.. i much rather hear what other people have to say about the rom. if i wanted on just tuned for me i would just make my own.

Lol i know that much, but when i tried sense roms i had some lag. But with the ICS roms i have more reliability, im using Nexus HD2 i like it but its been buggy on me where it doesnt notify me when i get a text so its kinda of making me go "eehh" to that rom for now.

Having made my point about there being no best ROM, I can say that NexusHD2 works absolutely perfectly for me. I've been notified about every text and it's without doubt the fastest ROM I've tried for playing games and web browsing in particular. I won't say it's the best ROM because this is EXACTLY what I mean about 'what works for one won't necessarily work for another' but it's certainly good. Sense ROMs are in general slow, and you're not experiencing anything out of the ordinary. If you don't like one of them, chances are you're not going to like any of them.

I know what you mean, im sorry for mis-wording the thread, but i just like seeing opinions on Rom's before i try them. But if i dont like one sense rom doesnt mean i wont like a different one, every developer has there on way how they make their rom, so what could be in this rom could be completely different in this one, but hey thats the fun of making a rom. Also NexusHD2 my current daily use rom just because of how clean and stable it is, i probably messed something up to get the notification problem, but it has high potential along with paranoidandroid. but the main reason i like opinions on this subject is because maybe there is a underdog rom some where that isnt really get as much attention as the bigger ones right now that could be actually decent and what im looking for, or maybe and aspiring developer is making something.

I agree with you on wanting opinions I like to see the same... just ignore the above person because there is no where in the rules that's states this is wrong.....he just has nothing better to do..... anyway back on topic..... I have tried paranoid ( which I'm on and I LOVE) the later update allows alot of spirit changes that allow me to have everything to my liking... I have a half table half phone thing going on and its great. I tried aokp but I felt it was too buggy maybe after its off hold it will be better. I myself have been wondering about gb roms my self i haven't tried any hope this helps

The main reason i liked paranoidandroid was becaus of how stable it was and the uniqueness of the tablet phone. It looked nice and felt nice but the keyboard was a giant turn off and when i installed a different keyboard it would bug out like crazy and i couldnt find a way to fix it. But overall it has really good and clean.

Thats why Nexus HD2 is my daily use rom, the only bugs in it are small ones that will be worked out. but other than that its overall great, but personally parnoidandroid does have my attention because i like the whole hybrid style, just some kinks need to be ironed out.

It definitely is IMO it has even more detail into what dpi's can be controlled and it has a new keyboard... the giant keyboard was a true turn off but I fixed that by adjusting the dpi for the keyboard and its great now I have hack zero reeboots or issues and battery life with juice defender and slightly oc is like 17 hrs moderate use for me

Whilst I'm not here to get into any sort of argument, I'd just like to point out that just because something isn't stated in the rules doesn't mean it's not wrong. Back on topic though, Paranoidandroid is really good and different from other ROMs, although as of when I tried it NexusHD2 was far more stable and I preferred it.
Which is the best ICS ROM out there?
I'm having a hard time choosing the fastest and most stable ROM.
As I can see, there are three contenders :
ISCREAMDX
MiniCM
AOKP (KangXperiaProject)
Any suggestions?
Try them and see...I have no idea why people like asking for others opinion when it comes to rom choosing. Different people = different tastes. If 90% of people said they like rom X because its super laggy, has many bugs, always reboots and hangs, will you use it ? No. Just try all three and see which suits you
hi friend, recommended in X8, the MiniCM9 - ICS ...its great

Btw. I did flash all the three.
AOKP (KangXperiaProject) ROM is the one that's most fluid for me. There are certain big bugs such as autorotate but it's pretty usable.

There is a lot of info about the roms, which rom suits the best is mostly personal.

There's no such thing as "the best ROM". Everybody wants something different. Take your time and try things out. You'll soon find out what matters to you. It took me about 6 months of playing around with lots of different ROMs to finally settled on what works best for me.

BAMF paradigm is a really nice combination of custom settings options (like customizable nav buttons, ability to make them any color, built in battery skin chooser, theme chooser, and more) and stability and in my opinion just makes a really nice well rounded daily driver.
