[Q] Which is the best Sense ROM for you?

Recently I joined here again and I've seen some new ROMs with the comming of the official FroYo. I've been here for a while looking for some Froyo Sense ROM and they all look really nice. I've been running Wildpuzzle after CM but it's a bit slow and now I'm searching a better one (if it's possible).
Which Sense ROM would you highly recommend?
Thanks for all and sorry for my bad english!!

All Sense ROM's will be slower than AOSP (Non-Sense) ROM's because Sense requires a lot of processing power. You can look at Sunaabh as an alternative to WildPuzzle but I doubt it will be as fast as CyanogenMod.
For me personally, I use WildPuzzle because I like to keep a Sense ROM, and, Live Wallpapers in Sense = Win for me.

I haven't tried any others, but WildPuzzle 0.7 seems very good currently, and not too slow at all, specially if you overclock it.

wildpuzzle v8.0 is the best Rom .

Im using wildpuzzle...
But
For me cyanogen is better,too bad camera recording and radio is not working and some other bugs.
Thats the only reason why im on wildpuzzle.

I hope for you that there will be an different way

WildpuzzleROM,even thou i'm using launcherpro to replace sense,i still prefer it over CyanogenMod due to the bugs and different apps(gallery,flashlight,etc.)
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

If you're looking for something that is reliable and fairly close to stock, just tweaked here and there, I'd say Sunaabh.
If you want a more tweakable and enhanced version of Sense then head over to Wildpuzzle. Can't really go wrong with that one.
I'd recommend trying out an AOSP ROM with a different launcher, like Launcher Pro, if you're game; the phone tends to be a lot smoother that way.

what is wrong with ADW launcher in AOSP?

Nothing. Some people do get crashes and instability using it though. Although I have been using the inbuilt ADW Launcher with CM7 since I have been using it, and, there have been no issues.
Also, for people who have spent time with both launchers, they are of the opinion that LP offers more features, and, is more stable.

hm ok...i've been using ADW on wildfire and X10 and 0 crashes or problems...

Hd2 very slow using sense roms

I have been using only Sense roms since I switched from WinM. Sense 2.0/2.1 have always been fine and there are a lot of Roms available that work great. I am currently using Dungphps Sense 3.0 Rom and I'll admit that at first it was really laggy and had a bunch of issues but it has progressively gotten much better. Currently the V2.3 Magldr Rom by Dungphp is awesome. It might be worth a check if your interested in making a change

Try this rom..
Miui with sense, ultrafast and stable..
regards

it is how it is. Sense roms = slow, miui/cm7 roms = fast. I was allways the Sense guy, till i tried miui Now, i cant imagine going back to Sense any more.

What exactly do you mean by 'slow'? I've found that froyo/sense ROMs run a lot smoother than CM7 ROMs. They seem to flow much better, for example when opening switching homescreens or opening previews, the transition is much more smooth than on typhoon, and that's from experience with MCCM's HD on SD, which should be slower. I get much more RAM on CM7 and apps etc open a LOT faster though, so I think I'll stick with it until a stable Gingerbread/sense rom is released. I'm also tempted to try MIUI, although I hate the launcher.

Sense uses a lot of memory (RAM), so for good performance a good memory manager is necessary. I use that and a start-up manager to control what programs run in the back ground.
Most programs don't need to run in the back ground, they will start-up when executed.

Same here. GB Sense, I tried all of them, never give you more then 1000 on Quadrant. CM7 or MIUI will give you 1200 or 1300.

can any one suggest a good sense rom plz

I use [10.Aug] BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA Ginger 2.3.3 HTC Sense 3.0_V5 rom for 2-3 weeks I think it is smooth but wi-fi tethering cannot use - -' and the graphic while loading not completely smooth.
Totally I think is ok now for HTc sene 3.0 rom while I waiting a new one ^^

Hi,
I would recommend this ROM

I've used few Sense 3.0 ROM on my HD2 till my digitizer dies on me. I would suggest you include V6 supercharger with your rom n you should see the difference. Phone is much snappier but the graphics are still a little buggy.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App

try Dungphps, they are the best sense 3.0 roms I would just recommend using auto killer memory optimizer to Get rid of the lag and set to 70, 80, 90. I personally have it set to 90, 100, and 110. Remember there is no substitute for a real sense rom

I like cm7.

I have been using YACK (Yet Another CM7 Kang) for a while and loved the speed of it. Before that, CM7. I believe you stick with a CM7 based rom and your good. You can still enjoy HDMI features also.

Perfect. Thank you. You have a link our URL for yack?

I am unsure if I am allowed to post a link here, so I will explain how to get to it. Its on RootzWiki site, in the DroidX Development section. It is not in its own sub-category, I believe its on the second page. You should have no problems finding it.

If she is new to android i would suggest Miui due to its user friendliness and its customizability.

I also would recommend MIUI, regardless.
MIUI is probably the most full featured stable rom for the Droid X.
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2

MIUI is nice, but I prefer the speed and stability of CM7. I always seem to have weird issues with MIUI, mainly bluetooth problems.

I installed YACK on my wife's x based of the recommendation. I found a couple of things annoying but might be a problem with many roms.
The button lights are either always on or always off. I would like them to come on with the screen back-light.
The notification LEDs don't work. I've tried to set them up in the KANG settings but so far haven't had any luck.
And last but not least my wife is on my ass about not having the "Droid" sound. (I can't win!)

MUIU for customization, CM7 is very sleek & stable. I like l
Liberty the best as all stock functions still work, very stable and seems to be the fastest of them.

Quickest But Stable Roms

I am currently running Andromadus Mimicry, but I have found it to be quite slow. Has anyone experienced any quick, but stable roms.
Thanks

Another one of these?
Whatever one you use that meets your expectations. There are people here that will run ICS without issues, but state they have issues with Jelly Bean or Gingerbread. It is all a matter of what works for you.
That being said, CM7 based ROMs are your best bet. They are the most developed and mature for the device.

Thanks, I ran CM7 for a while, but found it quite slow and laggy on my g2. I was just wondering if anyone had found any quick ICS roms.

If you find Andromadus Mimicry and CM7.2 too slow, than I’m afraid you need a new phone
Minicry might not be 100% stable, but it is pretty close. I think the ICS (or JB) would not be significantly faster even with official HTC kernel (without hacks).
You can overclock your phone and try different governors. This way you can improve the “smoothness” at a cost of battery life. Also be sure you are running ext4 filesystem. And a fast SD card may help too, check if it is at least class 8.

Mimicry flies for me at 1.5ghz

Andromadus test builds with JellyBean are the fastest of all I've tested so far (cm7.*, cm9.*, MIUI, stock sense ROMs etc.). There are some bugs however (in latest build - #71 - for example camera stopped working), but speed, smoothness, and all JB-related-features of this ROM are really outstanding. I believe, that all annoying bugs will be smashed really soon and my G2 will last until new nexus comes out.

Both of them tend to have some VERY slow slowdown periods, where I have to take out the battery, just to get It responsive.
When I try to overclock it, anything higher than about 1209 (with smartass governor) gives me a bootloop.

1) Flash 4EXT recovery.
2) Repartition your phone.
3) Flash either an ICS or a JB ROM.
4) Enjoy the faster phone.

How about sense roms?
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app

I'm coming from GB + CM7 rom, is the new JB or ICS much faster and still retain the phone's full functionality? I'm considering changing to Andromadus Minicry ICS/CM9. Currently, there is considerable lag when I just try to open up e-mail or respond to a text msg.
If there is much improvements, I rather just stay with my current build try not fix something that isn't (completely) broken. Is there a good way to migrate current apps over to the new rom? I'm currently running some crack apps that may not be available anymore.

Sense beyond 2.1/3.5(gingerbread) generally speaking is too much bloat for desirez/g2, sense 4.0A would be fine cept its been worsen and slowed down with the 3.0 kernel for sake of a working camera. The full sense 4.0 they took the kernel from is slow to the point of practically unusable on our devices.

Jelly bean still has a bit of work to put into, but there are plenty of fast ICS roms (non-sense) out there with "functional" camera app (post-gb its mainly the camera people complain about)
I've found for me, ICS to be quicker/smoother than stock or CM7.2.
Regarding apps (while I don't condone piracy) titanium backup would be the solution, assuming said apps are compatible with ICS.

If you want sense, flash sense 4.0 by geneysense it thinks the name. And then use romcleaner and flash after you flash rom and its smmoooth

PS: "CM9" by Jerl is not CM9 Official (ie: it didn't come from the cyanogenmod people), it's just bout the same (if not worse in my opinion) than Mimicry which is based off Andromadus which is based off Cyanogenmod 9's source. Though if you do try Jerl's port of it, I strongly advise you not to use the 3.0 kernel, too many problems with it and he apparently didn't bother testing it before releasing it (or least didn't bother to tell people the risk).
Far as google account syncing, it depends on whether or not you made sure to flash google apps afterwards, and if you accidently booted prior to flashing it, then you need to make sure to remove all your accounts on the phone then re-add them as it says in the OP of that thread.

The original camera on some miui 4x versions indeed works. Mainly all the 4X I've tested from miui.us miuiandroid and miui.com excluding JellyMIUI *latest builds* camera works but camcorder force closes. The fixed camera apk is floating around here somewhere in the forums I'll probably upload the link later If I can find it.
*Edit* here it is make sure you download the fixed 2 apk version works *camera & camcorder* with a majority of 4X miui ROMs just install it like any other app the first run maybe a little laggy so give it a few minutes to settle and it'll run smooth after that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15307536&postcount=167

But the old miui cannot edit the drawer size as some people prefer the icon to be 4x5 but new version can.

I wouldn't know I only had it for all of ten minutes, the theme app was retarded on this one, had to sign up to xaomi just to try and change it. Plus Gmail never worked properly, just jitters weirdly when you open it.

I'm using latest miuiandroid (3.1.18) with ics 4.0.4 and it's pretty stable. The only issue I noticed is the wifi hotspot. It has a sense camera as it is based on desire s sense rom. It also has the sense fm radio. Inspire users have to flash a patch to improve the sound quality. Gapps have to be flashed separately.
I'm telling you this in case anyone is interested.
