De-romming HTC Hero + best current rom? - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hey guys, I bought some on insurance on my phone while I went on holiday and obviously it got broken, so Orange are ever so sweetly replacing my phone tonight with a brand new one. However, to avoid the questions, I'd like to make my phone exactly like I first got it, if that is atall possible.
Second issue, once I unpack my new baby I'd like to install the newest, most stable rom.. good battery life, fast, efficient.. etc. Any advice?
Thanks guys.

Well...seems that you want a custom ROM. If you want to run the stock Sense ROM with android 2.1 you can install VillainROM 13 (it has some tweaks that make the phone rocket )...but you can try an AOSP ROM with android 2.3.5
Here are the links were you can download them
1.VillainROM 13 [Stock ROM with tweaks] -> HERE
2.Elelinux AOSP v3.3 [Android 2.3.5 with some tweaks and extra stuff] -> HERE
3.OMFGB AOSP by JieeHD [Android 2.3.5 with little modifications] -> HERE
4.Elelinux Speedmachine V5 [Android 2.2.1 with custom settings] -> HERE
5.Floyo 1.2 [Android 2.2.1 with custom settings] -> HERE
I recommend all of them, but you choose what you like, i used the first 3 and like them a lot. PS: i put some of the roms with the direct download link, if you want to see the page go to the development section
Keep me posted if you have any problems
Stefan

Sorry if I'm hi-jacking the thread, but thanks for the helpful post stefpaul. I'm getting a Hero this week (won it on eBay for under £100) and going through the development section to look for a good ROM is like looking for a needle in a haystack!

Not that the ROMs are rubbish you understand, it's just hard to find one I like out of all the choice!

The fastest rom atm, is Vanilla Eclair. By a mile! it's awesome, good battery, as stable as it gets and the speed is incredible!

youve convinced me, im going for this one. what does 140/160 DPI mean though? and can I still run most apps that the HTC hero itself can run? Thanks.

on the 140 dpi version everything gets a little smaller. For me there's no problem to read the text and it is pretty useful to display more content at the screen. I've not found any apps that don't like the new lcd density

Yes i agree VE is the fastest rom, but still there's something need to fix, the graphic when you press the power button there is a line should not in that place.. Just a small thing, but arent we want a perfection right?

I've been using VillainRom since I got my Hero and never turned back, only reason I've upgraded is that mines getting slow and I cant use any apps

There maybe some apps on 140 DPI that look funny. But in spareparts there is an option for that. Compatibility mode. change that and then reboot and all apps show full screen

MIUI for EVO... SPEECHLESS! UPDATE: TIPS ADDED!

Folks, I just installed MIUI 0.1.14-RC2.5 and I am totally SPEECHLESS! It feels like a totally different phone! It doesn't even look like a typical Android phone anymore. Yes, it gives the phone an iPhonish feel, but it's amazing indeed. If you have been thinking about giving it a shot, NANDROID and give it a try!
http://miui-dev.com/forums/showthread.php?2053-UPDATE-New-Official-Release-Thread-0.1.14
UPDATE: Just wanted to add and compile a list of the little things that make this ROM great and UNIQUE. If you have any tip or things you have discovered, just post them in this thread and I will update the OP.
1. Built-in screenshot feature. Simply press volume down + menu, and you will be able to save a screenshot if your current display.
2. When making a call, you can RECORD the conversation. Once the number is dialed, simply click CALL TOOLS | REC and the call will be recorded and saved as an audio .amr file to your sdcard.
That's exactly how I felt when I first flashed it. Heck that's how I still feel after running it for close to 3 months. It's amazing.

Dude, I am in awe as to how flexible Android OS is. It's just amazing. I just finished flashing RC2.5 where they fixed the MMS issue. I think RC3 will be released tonight.
The ROM looks so professional and fluidly smooth. I don't even have to install Launcher Pro on it nor ChompSMS.

My opinions of course:
Sense ROMs - Myns, Fresh
AOSP ROMs - CM of course and MIUI (is MIUI considered an AOSP ROM?)
Kernels - Any that has SBC integrated

I'm actually running LauncherPro on top of it, and it is even smoother. Have you had a chance to check out any themes yet? I recommend the Darkness theme, it's pretty awesome.
I ran MIUI for a while, not sure if much has changed on it but it was pretty nice. Looks, functionality, and smoothness was awesome. Battery life was in between CM and Sense based rom. who knows with newer kernels and builds but thats how it went for me about two months ago
Yeah I don't know what battery life is like on Sense ROMs anymore but I always have 55-65% left every morning when I swap out batteries. If I forget to swap the battery I still make it through the second day no problem. I'm using these batteries though, and they do last a bit longer than stock.

The look is the least of the MIUI rom. The theme manager makes it very very easy to change the look of the UI.
I've been on this rom since the beginning. It has (had?) features before many Sense roms. One reason I kept going back is the controls in the pull-down screen. Then there's the file manager (ok, right now it doesn't work but 1.1.14 may fix it), the camera, the lock screen. I also like having folders to organize my apps.
I'm hoping that the Wimax on CM means MIUI can also get Wimax. It would be nice to have 4G.

How can I check it out? I'm still learning how to navigate around MIUI.
i feel like trying it, which version should i try? lol only things that dont work is 4g and hdmi?
LED's fully functional with Wimax LED Notification
version 1.1.7
Does this mean 4g is working on this version?
For those wanting to try it, official release thread here: http://miui-dev.com/forums/showthread.php?2053-New-Official-Release-Thread-1.1.7
The story with this ROM is that it is not developed for the EVO. It's officially made the for the Nexus One (I think), and we have a generous team of devs to port it over to the Evo each time the official devs release a new version (every seven days or so). Also the ROM is developed in Chinese so there's a lot of translation work to do.
1.14 was just released so those wanting to try out MIUI might want to wait a day or two for the Evo port to drop. If not, 1.7 is working great

[ROM] Juiced v2.0.5~3/25/11~Even Less Charging, Even More Power

1. I am not responsible for loss, damages, tornados, tsunamis, unemployment or any other kind of issue that can arrise from installing custom ROMS.
2. No donations for me, if you want to do something nice theres plenty of people right now in need of support in Japan.
DO NOT FORGET TO Calibrate BATTERY (sorry for the confusion) AFTER INSTALL OR YOUR BATTERY LIFE MAY VERY WELL GO DOWN.
This is built off the 2.2.1 JL1 from samfirmware.com.
This is the very first rom that i have made. I hope you like it!
It was made for one purpose to maintain battery life. (Very Successfully)
Features:
*AMAZING BATTERY LIFE
*Great GPS
*4 Unlock Screens
*Small File Size
*Extended Power Menu
*JK4 Modem
* Onix v2.0.1 23MAR[SIO][OC/UV 1.6ghz][VoodooSnd 6]
*Themed Status Bar
*No Unneccessary processes or applications
*Fixed LogsProvider
*It's SUPER STABLE.
*I have probably left out a few things
Incl. Apps
Tibu
SGS Tools

Please dont Flame, i am learning more and more every day and i try my best to bring you the best rom i can.

Well if your going for straight performance i would suggest trying an oc kernel over my rom because i have had awsome results as far as speed. i cant guarentee you the same results as few are able to but i was able to run 1.4ghz on my rom with -75mv across the board all day long i was getting around 19 and 20 linpack. hope that gives you some ideas.
Will def give this one a try!

may change my mind on things i got suckerpunch and serendipity if that puts it in focus pun intended
any reason that you took the link down?? i started downloading a bit ago and i saw that you took the link down about 1 min after i started the download. i think that this rom is just what my captivate needs i need about 1 hr more battery life than what im getting now. cant wait till my battery is fully charged.
i noticed 2 small things and it was not signed. it will be up in a min
Good luck with your ROM, I know I've learned a ton in such a short amount of time.

Looking for a stable Ron for my friends new G1

So I just bought a G1 for $40 locally in lnib condition. He is not very phone savvy so I am looking for a 100% stable and working rim for him on froyo or GB. I was thinking about cm7 but I don't know how stable it is for the g1. Like I said I need something that would give him little to no problems.
I would also like a kernel that would allow for a little bit of overclocking and undervolting.
If anyone can give me some good suggestions I would appreciate it very much. I need to do some more reading up before rooting and installing so I will coke back here later for any suggestions.
Droid Charge/Gummy GBE 1.91rc
try ez gingerbread or froyo by laszlo if you dont care about features. otherwise go with cm7 magpie by firerat
They are all about the same, it come down to what you like. My personal preference is SuperAosp. I am currently using 6.4.2.
This Ron looks pretty stable.

So did they solve the slower-than-molasses problems that plagued the G1 when running Eclair, Froyo, etc? Because the last time that I checked, 'stable' isn't the pertinent question to be inquiring about when it comes to the G1 ...its speed.
For stability and speed you can't hardly beat the Super D rom on a G1.

I was excited to look at Super D, until I see that it is a stripped CM6 and has not been updated per that link in over 1.5 years.
What we need are viable options for a GB rom that is comparable or better than COS-DS, and one that is being updated.
I got CM6 installed but I cannot get the market working for the life of me. I have tried just about everything.
I am going to try froyo by lazlo tonight but don't want to brick his G1. Do I just need to go into recovery, wipe, flash the correct radio/spl, flash rom?
:edit: I guess I also need ext4. I am searching around for how to convert to the g1 to ext4(does this conver the entire system or just the sd card...sorry not 100% on the G1).
If anyone could give me a rough guide to follow on how to go from CM6 to Froyo by Lazlo that would be awesome. Also...he will be here in 20 minutes lol. I will hit that thanks meter son.
Also sorry...I know xda is flooded with noobish questions now but I am not at all familiar with old HTC(know how to root the Tbolt and that's about it). I have always used Samsung phones(which are cake to root/flash).
I would greatly greatly appreciate it if anyone can point me in the right direction for this one.
Got it..my friend is now on froyo by lazlo and it runs smooth as hell and everything works fine.
P.s. I am sticking to samsung. That was wayyyyy to much reading to flash one rom ;-)

Best one for such an old phone, and you get a lot of space...Be sure to use MTD with "95" "2", get you around 100MB int or so.

You have to flash a base rom prior to flashing SuperD, this is the fastest ROM i've ever used on the G1 back when I used it. Anything past Donut, is to sluggish and slow on the G1, especially if you don't OC . Even eclair was very slow on my G1, when @768, on Donut I could use 384 and it would be quite usable. I wouldn't even bother with Ginger or ICS or GingerSense if I were you. No disrespect to the Devs or anything, but the G1 can't handle the newer firmwares. But if you like sense, a lot of the cupcake sense ROMs were really good and fast, with good battery life too.
Froyo By Laszlo.....bestest rom!!

BAKED Blackbean-3
Flashed and running it , VERY customisable ....even more than a standard AOKP build. Apex launcher as default with a landscape dock as standard.
Loving it so far ! Lil bit buggy but still usable. ( Icons , wallpaper and widgets not in the ROM )

My Initial Thoughts
Well I'm extremely annoyed - I was promised a few bugs (OP) and there are none! Drat! I wiped everything within an inch of it's life, then flashed the ROM followed by inverted gapps. I have not had one force close, no burps, no screen flicker, nada, nothing bad in 6 hours of heavy running.
This ROM is as smooth as , well, teflon - easily the equal of any CM10 I have tried. I noted with pleasure the toggles and particularly the "put the screen to sleep toggle" (I like to save mechanical switches whenever possible) and I can never understand why other devs don't include this very simple toggle.
Truth is, I will be using this as my DD on my GTP3113 - I'm not sure that any significant improvement is warranted.
Thanks much to hjkr and the original dev for this great piece of work.

I'll be sure to pass this over to the dev - I flashed this morning, tinkered with some settings, etc. Haven't tried the inverted apps nor tried to drop Jonsels awesome kernel on it - wanted to let the dev know if anything came across this forum, I'd be more than happy to relay over to him, etc.

The camera is borked - I think this true for CM10 generally (no way to exit app) so I d/l'd Camera JB+ and will use that. Only issue so far.

This rom is really nice. I flashed the inverted gapps and after several hours of steady use I haven't even had a stutter. Kangorade was the very first rom I flashed on this tab and this is the only one I've used since with this many features. Amazing job guys. Best alpha ever...
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app
Only major issue I had when I first flashed it was, Superuser was having problems allowing permissions and it froze up once or twice and had to do a hard reboot.But it seems to have settled in now and is playing nice. Froze up a few times initially when using some apps as well Maybe it was a bad flash from AOKP ? who knows ....
Really Impressed with it so far , nice to mess about with and customise that little bit more than you can with AOKP. Pretty cool you can edit build.props ( even though i use Rom Toolbox to do it , but a good feature to have none the less).Themes work well on the ROM.
Apex in landscape is a blessing !!!! Customisable settings menu as well . For the first build its pretty damn good , will be my ROM of choice that's for sure.Cant wait for the next builds to be released.
Only thing that i can fault is when you install an app and the icon is added automatically to your home page it seems to be cut off at the bottom , but deleting the icon and adding it from the app drawer again remedies that problem ( anyone else have that ?) Not sure it that's a problem with Apex as I'm using a theme on it with custom Icons.
On the navigation bar when you add new icons they show as "reflected " in the selection menu but don't seem to work in reality , but I'm making some new ones that you can add pretty much exactly the same as the ones in the ROM with a reflection, anyone wants them send me PM and i will send them over.Got a few more to do but wont take that long.
Apart from that its a sweet ROM ! Loving it big time
Plzzzzzz...........need it for P3100 too...........

You're always left out on these. I was flashing 3100s on my 3113 but obviously mine has no phone function :silly:
I'm digging this so far. Can't seem to find anything wrong except for getting the screen to rotate when using trebuchet. Besides that all is hunky doory. Thanks! :thumbup:
