I love using CM7 but feel like there are always issues with bluetooth, GPS or the camera. Right now I am using Fresh, which is great, but I really prefer the stock OS over HTC Sense. Is there a ROM out there that has the HTC Kernel so that it works with all of the hardware right but does not run Sense? I'm not sure that is even possible and I might be misunderstanding the difference between the Kernel and the OS, but I thought if anyone could give me some suggestions this group is it!
If it uses the htc kernel its running sense. Non-sense roms remove the look of sense but it is still running in the background.

What's the difference between CM7 rom and Virtuous rom???
Because I'm thing about updating from virtuous to cm7
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
One big difference is that CM doesn't have HTC Sense, but Virtuous does.
Also, CM is based on 2.3, whereas Virtuous is 2.2.1

Best thing to do is flash and see for youself! Look at the specs of the roms and flash! That's what I do.

I agree. I was doing the same thing as you trying to find the difference between two different ROMs and I found that it was just easier to flash and try them yourself. Plus it was fun flashing different ROMs
I really like Roto CM7 rom So far out of all of all the roms I have tryed and it seems more stable as well as fast. but I am flashing B#54 because it has the tethering in it. seems he has taken it out after that and since I do not have Internet at home anymore... Moved and have not gotten it.... I tether...
Hey,
Well Virtuous is based on the stock rom (therefore it comes with sense). On the other hand is CM which is build on top of vanilla android (therefore it can use 2.3).
If you like the look and feel and the bundled apps of the desire z with stock rom, you will love Virtuous because its just an extension.
If you think the stock one is overloaded and you like the vanilla android experience, CM is the way to go.
In both cases you get a custom kernel with a lot of nice features.
I use CM on my G1 and Virtuous on my G2. And I like both! well more the G2 but that has nothing to do with the rom

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?
Andre
Virtuous ROM 1.0.1 with Standard Kernel @ 1GHz for me. No lag what-so-ever and working great! lovin' it
The best Sense ROM is the one that uninstalls itself and loads CM7 or some AOSP variant
I'm using gingersense 2.3, so far so good

Id wait a few days as now Sense and Gingerbread work together so there are going to be alot of releases based on that.
does anyone know if there is word of a stock update to Gingerbread 2.3 for the Desire Z. and if there are going to be roms made with Sense and Gbread, will they be available in ROM Manager. I am very interested in this GingerSense. where is it available.
Thanks.

HTC said that the Desire family of devices would be getting an official update to v2.3 in June or July.
Is there a fully working rom on this forum? I see tons of roms but I see that many have issues like mms not working..
I'm looking for a rom where all the features work just as the stock 2.2.1 rom...
Suggestions? Thanks!

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

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.

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.

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..

Yeah :3 SenseLX 4.0 is like the best Sense rom available. Runs smooth like butter. No issues outside Bluetooth, and Video Recording. So Sense LX look it up. It's constantly updated, and they'll fix anything you ask.

Because it is polluted with trash (aka "sense"). Delete that cruft and everything will work.
All things considered some of the best ROMs available.
