hey everybody.
ive been having some issues installing roms from coredroid i have tried their desire 2.3 rom and it was soo slow soo soo slow i had to get rid of it. not sure why.
now i installed the froyo rom and the rom is working like a pro but i have no keyboard no keyboard shows up after installation.
i followed their install instructions step by step by step just need to know what is going on whether its the desire or the froyo it sucks pretty bad for me.
secondly
i have been looking around and saw something called miui its been bugging my curiosity so i checked out their website and i guess its a different brand of roms for android. question is what is soo special or unique about them ? and any recommended ones that i can try out maybe ? do let me know i would appreciate the help greatly
thanks
keyboard was a problem with v1.7 froyo. you can ask help for it, in rom's thread, because there were some fixes for it. or you can download a keyboard from market.
miui roms have a launcher similar to iphone. they are smaller in size and fast. they have updates every weekend regularly. their backup-restore function is unique. they have many alternative themes and lockscreens.

Hi, i am looking for a stable and fast ROM for my Hero. I've tried SenseHero and im currently using BeHero 1.3.2, but i keep loosing my connection, and it restarts for no reasons at all and there are some minor bugs. Only good thing is the camera responds much better with BeHero 1.3.2..
I'm not gonna install SPL or anything dangerous, just need a 2.1 Android ROM that's fast and stable. I'm using 3rd party software for most things so pretty much need a clean rom. I would also prefer if i only have to install 1 file..
What would you guys recommend me to get? (I've spent alot of time getting to know this whole business of rooting and installing hacked roms but still know very little.. It's a big subject )
Thanks in advance

Well, I can only say that you have to try different ROM's because they can behave different on each device.
I recently flashed mine with VillainROM 3.3, and it became really laggy. I haven't bothered to reflash, as the official 2.1 is out soon, and I've preordered a Desire.
So, my recommendation is that if you don't REALLY need 2.1 NOW, just wait for the official update. If you do need it, then try different ones because they are all good, but may behave a little different on each device and even between flashing on the same device too.

Hi!
I have the strangest question
My phone is reaaallly slow, so I figured I'd do a hard reset and reinstall everything.
My question is, what should I do
Basically I just want the latest version of windows mobile and HD2 updates. To get it really up to date
So can you give me any recommendations on what exactly I should update?
Thanks
The easiest way is probably to flash a custom rom..... one of the newer ones.
Should contain all the freshest updatey goodness and give the speed your looking for.......
Best thing to do is work out which apps you liked and what worked and do a hard reset back to factory spec and only install the apps you like...
After getting the phone most of us install every app that comes along, settling for a few that are essential... Hard resetting and fresh installs will help greatly...
Only go a custom rom if you really know what you are doing and only if you are dedicated to try several to find one that suits you...

I know I used to do so with my old telephone (TYTN II), but recently I spoke with a friend of mine (he has a HD2 too). He's really into computers etc, and he has the latest roms and everything. He told me that his phone is A LOT faster now.
The only thing is: I have no idea where to start. Just download the latest windows mobile? or should I download the latest HTC HD2 rom? Or both? In what order? Any other updates?

Before i went down the custom rom route i did modify a stock 1.66 rom so i can make a comparison here between as shipped stock, modded stock and custom 6.5.5. I can tell you that 6.5.5 is miles better, faster and if you get a custom rom with a newer version of sense that's even better.
Flashing custom roms has been covered so many times many people are bored of replying but i'll see what i can do in one post.
First you need a copy of HSPL3. Search for it, it will turn up. Don't ask how to install it. All you need to do is run the exe in the file you download.
Then you have a choice. You can either install and updated radio rom (will possibly improve signal and battery life but to find the best one for you and your area may take a couple of flashes and some testing) or just skip straight to the main event. I recommend that all new rom flashers use Energy 23569 standard sense 2.5 because it's fast, pretty lightweight and very close to a HTC stock rom in looks which makes it pretty easy to use. To install follow the instructions in the first couple of posts of the energy rom thread.
I also recommend that you have a look at leocpuspeed V4 and chainfire's 3D driver patch v2 (search for those). Once configured they will greatly improve the performance of the device running any rom you install and it's well worth it.
if you dont wanna go custom rom, i guess you could check see if you have all the latest updates from the HTC site, take it from there, only install apps to the device that need to be on the device such as tweaking apps and install everything else on the sd card, and get your self clean ram or bsb ram sweeper, will reclaim the ram for you from the programs you thought you may have closed but didnt really close.
hi guys!
lately i tried several MIUI roms that can be found around, from: ladyboo, langthang, jan willem and boyppc until recent differend with ladyboo
no matter how i tried, i am not able to find the differences between those roms
i ask you guys, with more knowledge then me to try to pinpoint for me some differences between those roms, other then theme used by each of those great chefs.
disclaimer: this is not a versus thread or which rom is better.

Hi,
It looks to me that you are an experienced member. According to your sig "ROM: Depending on the week day" you could maybe do us all a favor and try out the various ROMS and report back and let us know your findings.
as i said in the first post, i DO try a rom almost every day. but i can't identify the differences between roms i mentioned. that's why i asked for somebody with more skills
that sig came from windows mobile days, but it is still actual
im also a flash aholic ive tested almost all the miui roms. i dont notice much of a difference but i have noticed with jan willem rom is that everything works including the system update app i also think its slightly smoother than the rest.
The differences between these roms are little to none, so it all comes down to which theme you prefer. Personally I would grab the original MIUI from their english website, and then update every friday via MIUI ROM Download, which is included in the rom. Remember the english pack.
But eventually you will get annoyed by the MIUI launcher and install another on top of MIUI. And if you do that, you might as well install HyperDroid GBX V12 or NexusHD2, 'cause they're smoother and faster.
thanks for the thread, that's what is annoying me too. SO many roms but most of them don't have difference, and SO many roms just being tweaked so much that there is no real working stock rom anymore XD
There will always be a stock rom.. The great thing about all this is that everyone is making their own version. You can just select which one you like and install it. That makes it so choosable. The one is adding some extra apps/themes, the other is tweaking it to be amazing fast. Now you can choose between all those ROM's which best suits your requirements.
as i said i am not interested in theme differences because one can always change the theme to one he likes best, no matter what rom is using
about speed - the 3 roms i mentioned looks the same to me and device mark gives similar results for all 3 of them
and no, i don't want to install hyperdroid or nexus roms because miui are smooth enough and i can't see the speed difference (maybe in quadrant but that's useless).
and, for the moment, miui appeals me more then other releases.
so, no one can find, let's say, 10 different things between these 3 roms?
as no one respond, can we conclude there is no real differences?
Hi all,
First im sorry for my english
I have HTC HD2 EU version and everybody know windows sucks ;p I decided to change OS to android. And Im little confused, so many roms and distribution.
Please help me chose one or two
I want install NAND version.
Please give me your favorite! I want see the best with sense and without (clean+modes)
Thanks !
Jack
May be this is not you are asking for Sense but I recommend NDT ROM.... I'm also newbie and try several ROM. I'm using NDT MIUI ROM right now. I like the way they organize the theme. Just IMO
NDT
I would second the NDT MIUI rom. It is very stable, clean and fast. MIUI also has some nice themes. I would stay away from most of the sense 3.0 threads if you are looking to use wifi hotpsot and the camera as they are not real stable
The Cm7 roms are pretty stable to. Once you get Magldr you can backup and try a few till you find one you like
as stated before. if you want to enjoy your phone in all its ways, stay away from the new sense 3 roms. I was also the Sense guy, untill i tried miui. For me this the way my phone should work. Miui has ton of features its fast, its stable (Systeminfo shows almost 300 hours without reboots) and very versatile. Read the miui bible, cos there are features (usefull ones) there, which most users have never heard about. If you like theming etc. miui is the way to go. Everyday new themes which are applied by a click, no editing of apks needed. I seriously cant imagine go back to another rom, that would be a major downgrade for me.
the rom i use is JW miui from jan-willem3. jan knows what he is doing, so i recommend this highly

Hi folks.
I've just been given this phone by a friend who has just upgraded to a Galaxy S2. I'm running a HTC Sensation myself but the handset looks like it should still be a useful upgrade for my daughter if I could get a custom ROM on it.
Almost all the DL links from the DEV sub-section seem down though. I did get Jazzman's ROM eventually but can anyone still playing with this device tell me if this is a good, bad or indifferent ROM to try. I don't want to waste time installing a bad'un.
I see from reading other threads that all custom ROMs seemed to have inherited a camera bug which could be partially fixed by reinstalling the default camera app (but no settings are ever saved). Did anyone ever get beyond that or did folks simply get newer phones and move on?
Lastly, if anyone still has a few of the old ROMS DL'd on their computer (Artos' anyone??) and could upload them somewhere for me and others to get access again, then that would be great.
Hoping someone can help. It's definitely too good to be binning it without trying something.....
Same Request , i need a stable and the best out there , any suggestions , cuz the stock on full of bugs....

Hey Crommy, did you upgrade to the latest stock rom? That really soves most of the issues with the device and is quite decent by itself.
