what is wrong with myhero?
I think it's one of the snappiest roms for the 32A, hero or non-hero.
Cyanogen is my recommendation too for a non-hero rom. Try the experimental donut one.

Cyanogen is the best non Hero ROm i think , just tried it out for the last Days but anyway for me the MyHero Roms are faster in scrolling , if haven't too much programs in the background loaded i would still prefer the MyHero

2.3 for Legend

i'm not really a noob but noob to the Legend, i used to have Xperia X10 and HTC HD2 and it was easy to root and installing ROMs
now i have this Legendary Legend and i want to root it and install different ROMs i'm currently running 2.2, radio-7.13.35.05, and on the boot it says
LEGEND PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.01.0000
MICROP-0816
TOUCH PANEL-SYN07_0105
i've been reading the stickies foe awhile but i didnt know what is the difference between S-ON and OFF and if 2.2 is rootable or i have to downgrade to 2.1 and if i have to root this HBOOT thing!! actually i'm lost!! one last thing what is the best ROM for Legend? is there 2.3 or CM7 out for it?
P.S. excuse my poor english

why did you post 2 same thread???

maybe it's a forum lagg, and it was like "double posting"

It looks like you're in the same situation I was! Here's how I rooted, in laymans terms.
1. Turned my SD card into a goldcard.
2. Flashed a pre-rooted 2.1 ROM using the stock recovery method.
3. Downloaded CM6.1, placed it on my memory card.
4. Did a little messing around with ROM Manager, ended up doing the stuff I explained in this thread instead which worked just fine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962357
5. Flashed CM6.1 (which was buggy as hell).
6. Downloaded blay0's ROM, placed it on my memory card.
7. Repeated step 4 and flashed blay0's ROM.
Please note that blay0's ROM is 2.2 and not 2.3.
In regards to ROMs, personally I love blay0's b 0.7 ROM, it runs like a dream. It's not too far away from the Sense UI and it isn't buggy as hell for me like CM6.1 is... Haven't tried CM7 yet so I can't say, but TheGrammarFreak (a respected regular here) shows praise for it.

Im in CM7 and is a super ROM

Is it true that CM7 doesn't have Flash? That's a pretty big dealbreaker for me.

Yes, but the good news is that none of the rom (legit or custom) has it as well.

What about the Lite version of Flash which HTC ship with the Legend? If that's still present I might just switch to CM7.

It isn't.
CM can't legally include it because they don't have a licence to redistribute it, don't want to since they don't have access to the source, and even if they could and wanted to, it probably requires the sense framework, so technically it would still be somewhere between "impossible" and "damn inconvenient".

If you use Rom Manager it can install CM7 its pretty good for me my last rom was b0.5 which was great but im loving CM7 way more

If you really want 2.3 use CM7 - it's still beta but it's very stable and does everything I ask it to do, if you want a stock(ish) 2.2 then Blay0's ROM is sweet.

yep, I would also recommend cm7. and it's only partly true that it has no flash - I downloaded it from applanet and works perfectly fine with embedded youtube videos and ads (although I don't want the latter)

CM7 works great. Why do you need flash lite? I haven't missed it once when I owned an iPhone and I haven't missed it in CM7, nor did I use it with the stock rom. Youtube works anyway and if you must, Skyfire plays most flash videos fine as well.

[Q] ROM based on WWE Android 2.1 with htc sense with all the +++ !

Hi - my Hero's !
Are U looking for a real hero ROM?
I totally agree with the quote from rdejager @ villainrom.co.uk/forum :
We can all face it - the hero is not made for 2.2 and even more 2.3 .... Our phones are just not made for 2.3 sense and 2.2 sense .... 2.1 sense roms run fine on the hero. and you can really see that they are made for it, cuss everything just works for it, the hardware is made to the software...

So - do U want to use the power of our long development journey in a fresh ROM?(based on WWE Android 2.1 with htc sense 2.1)
Good News:
-> Repack ROM from elelinux based on stock ROM 3.36.405.1!
-> VillainROM v13.0 Release * WWE * Android 2.1 *
-> other 2.1 roms
How do U tweak them? How du U like them?
Thankx for any helpful suggestions!

http://www.ekg-clan.de/pasta/hrdb/index.php?site=a21 choose the one you like most they are all good. but if you want only one named: Cronos 2.1.4.1 Sense Eclair

@iPasta: Thankx for the link - nice overview!
Like to try a 2.1 SenseROM again after spending a couple of months on Ginger & Froyo.
At first I want a speedy and stable build.
I have just tried to flash 7.0 v1.0 (Elelinux) - and no, it is still noticeably slower than Elelinux-6.2.0-RC0-Hero-Speedmachine rom (6.2). Slightly faster that 7.0 v0.9, but still far beyond 2.2. So; is it possible that a 2.1 feels again more faster?
Will report back my impressions - if U like!

I would suggest Mr. Bang's 2.1 Sense ROM. It is, apart of Cronos, the latest updated 2.1 ROM, and is by far smaller in size (nearly 30 MB!). In addition FlyKernel-12a is a good choice

@Krizp0 : Thankx! So:
Do U agree with:
"After a long time playing with 2.2-non-sense-ROM's, I returned to 2.1-Sense.
--> Nothing smoother than 'Mr. Bang's 2.1 Sense ROM' with FlyKernel 12a."

Well, I know I went from 2.3 Gingerbread to Mr. Bang's 2.1 Sense ROM and felt very satisfied with the speed and stability of good old 2.1, especially since Sense makes your phone full and not fragmented so you have to download widgets and other things to get it as you want. The only thing you may miss is the new functions and apps that require 2.2+.
Edit: I also encourage you to take a look at Tegro 2.5 RC3, it is very Sense-like, but I haven't tested it.

If you want a rom that is A sense rom 2.1 for the HTC Hero GSM and build for it and that just works 100%.
Use Villainrom 12. You can customize it with their kitchen. It may be old, but that doesnt mean its crap .
I myself flashed FlyKernel 11C BFS over it and it works fine here .

Why not cook a VillainROM 12 + (12.1 / 13) !?
Thankx for the suggestions - looking again for VillainROM (i'm a donator)!
I'm impressed and feel backed in my plan to downgrade to 2.1 sense Rom.
My question now is:
How do we can make "VillainROM 12" or other "2.1" Roms more stripped and tweaked?
What do U recommend?
- FlyKernel 12 / Implement Kernel tweaks.
- OpenGL
- EGL
- Gallery 3D
- Latest Gapps
- Implement HTC Hero OTA update 3.36.405.1
So - why not cook a VillainROM 12 + (12.1) !?

I am trying to implement this OTA into VR12.1.
Will play with the OpenGL things too

Jahooo! *perfectly happy*
Which kernel do U include into 12.1?

So far as I know a modded version of FlyKernel 11C Cuss 12A is buggy, for me it is unstable and I dont like it. now running 11C on Villainrom and well it runs smoother then 12A

Pulsar had a modded version of Flykernel 11C in his Froydvillain release. I was refearing to that.
What did I tweak. well the lockscreen, battery Icon, and I removed like 90% of the apps. and I updated EGL. And well I love it.
Now I am on Flykernel 12A M652-M176-noatime
I got awesome battery life.
I went back to Ginger for a test. and well no that was a no go....
The speed in Villainrom is insane.

RCMix is nice and all, but still even VR12 is bloated but RCMix, man... even if you remove all that crap. You can never get the speed of VR12.

[Q] HTC Magic 32B recommended ROM's

Hi there, HTC Magic user here.
I've gone back to stock ROMs for a bit but lately I've been wanting to go back to a rooted phone.
My previous experience with Cyanogenmod 5 and 6 has been terrible, the phone ran slow and even completely stock there would be either launcher restarts after running even the messaging app or app force closes if the launcher was kept in memory. The only ROM's that worked well were 1.6 based ones but of the three that most people use, they all have problems which make them difficult to use in the long run.
tl;dr What ROM's are you using with your 32B Magic and what optimisations do you do to stop lag and memory overflows happening?

Ezgingerbread (link in my sig) is what I usually use. Its pretty light and fast.
If you want as many cm features as possible while still having some speed try cos-ds.
If you really like cm features, there's greenromproject cm7 or anotger cm7 rom who's name I can't remember. I haven't used those yet so I can't say anything about speed there.
And these are all gingerbread roms. Idk what to suggest for other versions.. I got into android right before cm6.1

Nope. There are gingerbread roms for every radio. If you are talking about the 2708+ radio then I would recommended it for the extra ram

I'm currently running Ginger Yoshi 1.2 and love it. I've used CM 5.0.8, CM6, Ginger Yoshi 1.1 and now 1.2. All have worked great on my phone. The one thing for me is that I wipe everything...everytime. To include my SD card manually. I save my files on my computer and put them back after I load up the ROM.

Hi Everybody,
do you known or do you have a link to download the ROM please.

Search is your friend

If your phone is rooted you could always get Rom Manager Free from the Market and get the rom of your choice. I use CyanogenMod-6.0.0-DS and the phone runs great. It's actually the only ROM my phone has been able to handle fully with no issues. OS 2.2 is the highest I would put on the MT3G. I've tried Yoshi's, EzTerry, Greenrom, etc.. and all either had issues or just wouldn't work.

Search in this forum, RC Magic V7, SFM 1.2 sense 2.1 (Its great recomended), or clean magic (Fast). All whit htc sense! I tested all and work greats!

Have used both SFM 1.2 and Clean Magic 5.01. Would highly recommend either of them. The new lock screen in SFM 1.2 is very cool though

Sorry, just realised they are both 32A only ROMs. Maybe take a look at Ginger Yoshi 1.2

I've tried biffmod, gingeryoshi and few others before them, unfortunately each left me wanting to try another rom. Now I'm on froyobylaszlo I simply don't have that yearning for another rom anymore, and I suppose that says it all. I think I made a couple of tweaks but nothing major(can't remember though!) and it runs great, very smooth and fast.
Only issue I have is running speedtest, where it reboots occasionally.

Thanks for that, but they're both 32A ROMs.
My phone is the 32B and only has 192mb of RAM so I don't think they'd run

Ok i have the HTC HD2 i been away for like a year and just come back and there seems to be new android 2.3 and that am using 2.2 froyostone sense.. so whats new then? which one would u recommend for me as there loads now cheers

Well, loads has obviously changed now. I would recommend looking here for instructions on how to start over and using this ROM, but you should obviously experiment in terms of ROMs.
