Miui.us by thederekjay

To learn about each ROM, just read their individual threads.
As far as performance, the Darkside MIUI is amazing, and it was just updated today. I am not a Sense fan at all, so I will never recommend it, it's usually laggy and battery draining, no matter who compiles it.
For stability, battery, and performance, any ROM based off of CyanogenMod 7 is by far the best way to go.
MIUI rom is very nice, fast, and good in terms of battery life.
Thanks everyone I'm gonna try MIUI.us then since I'm hearing good things about it regarding battery life & performance

I m running meXdroidMod Ghost Chili Aio nd is very fast . Battery long lasting nd has great animations nd tweaks... nd the only bad thing about miui .thederekjay is that if u have ultimate iphone theme the battery wont last 5! Hours for that i recommend cm7 based roms
For shear speed and ultimate responsiveness it's a close tie between a [nearly] pure AOSP ROM like CM7 and MIUI like TDJ's official port. It's hard to say which is faster.
However, although a Sense ROMs aren't quite as quick, they're nearly so. I compare to it to putter larger-than-stock wheels on your car. The added weight might slow it down a little, but the much improved looks and visual appeal are more than worth it.
MIUI is good, my in-law used it for months and he liked it.

I just got the mytouch, and I was wondering if there is a consensus best rom, our favorite rom. I saw that iced-glacier has the most replies, so I assume that probably is what is most used.
Which rom do you guys suggest I flash?
iced glacier is a very good rom if u like mysense. i personally am more of a stock type person and am loving cm7.1
personally i use cm 7.1 which is android 2.3 iced glacier among others are very strong roms. it just depends what kind of user you are. the mysense and sense have a lot of nice things to them but tend to be bloated a bit. i prefer a more basic, stock experience.
Hmm folks on this forum are a lot less opinionated than other forums.
Thanks for the input guys.

Define "best rom", you may get more responses.

I guess by best, I meant what is everyone's favorite rom.
I wondered if there is a rom that most prefer over the others. Thanks for the suggestion.

Ian currently using the gorilla sense enjoy it but I think personally ny face is the MIUI, it just needs a lite more added to it
Just my Input

Well not very impressed by the Android's joke attempt at mockery of linux ppc but I have like 10days to return the device lol so today I flashed Iced Glacier. Ill test it and see as I can't stand the stock bolted version. My next target is Evil 4G HD, GorillaSens DHD and then CM7 if I like it I just might keep the device. After all I can't refuse it for the hardware implication.
My favorite is iced glacier because I get the best battery life with moderate to heavy use.

Thanks for the input. I tried all the sense roms and I am sticking with gorilla for a little while.

In my experience, The best daily driver ROM is Iced Glacier v1.0.4 which is found here , its pretty much closest to the stock ROM feel without the bloatware, 1.7Ghz over clock ready, and is already themed and optimized. It is Mysense based (Stock Mytouch UI) which IMO not really a bad UI, to each their own... And since the Stock ROM that came with the mytouch already works very well, this definitely has the least issues if theres even any, out of all the ROMs available right now.
Alot of stable ROMs are out there right now so I still suggest you try them, and see for yourself
Best looking ROM MIUI by Evil D
If you want android AOSP based ROM, then its a given CM ROM by Zinc
Good luck and happy flashing
I am a huge fan of AOSP ROM's so as of current i am using Cyanogen's CM6.1.2RC2, I tried I/G but i felt it was slower than the stock 2.2.1. CM6.1.2RC2 FLIES when i comes to speed.
I am using cm7 ROM, love it....Before that I was using iced glacier, which was my favorite because it was most stable, and optimized..got great performance and great battery life out of it.
Hello all,
I recently decided that I wanted to play with my mytouch 4G for a while. I was looking through the ROM section, and there were a lot of ROMs...very overbearing for someone like me. So, I decided to reach out to the community, and ask for a ROM that would suit my needs.
Requirements:
1. Good Battery Life
- I don't use my phone too often, and I hate it how with one day of low use my phone will go down to around 50%
2. Fast
- Speed Demon!
3. Stable
- Don't want apps crashing, now do we?
4. Updated
- Would prefer something that gets updated, so I know that I'm continually being supported with bigger and better things.
Think that's pretty much it. Thanks for all your help!
First post on XDA. Hope there's more to come!
CM7 or Faux's AOSP. Both fast with great battery life.
Sent from my HTC Glacier
Most of the roms get to a "final release" where everything thats going to get worked out is worked out so that's where the older roms are but if you want one with a consistent update and speed try miui demonspeed as it gets updated every week hope that helps and welcome to XDA!

Try the mexdroid pre ghostchili ROM. Ghostchili runs very fast especially with the kernel on scary setting.

I use Team Royal's Royal Panache. It's based off the canadian version of the MyTouch4G and is a very smooth gingerbread sense ROM. Battery life is great and it works with Netflix. It uses a great kernel that can overclock to 1.8 Ghz. I went to it after Fusion and prefer it.

Is it costomizable and could you add some screenshots. Lol I love my screenshots
Nick'sAMytouch4GLover<3
If anyone else coments this will you also please add screenshots?

i was using faux's aosp rom. I'm now running streamlined cm7 and love it. both roms are super fast and smooth. streamlined has just a few more attractive features. clear pulldown, g2x launcher and the cm customization options. flash some roms and see what you like. thats the best way to figure out what you want. i started with iced glacier which was basically stock without the bloat installed from tmobile. then i did royal's version of that. then faux's aosp which doesnt have all the sense features like you would be used too and i found i liked that better. the phone runs so much faster and the battery life is much better without sense roms burning it up.
I just want peoples opinions and see how other people think of there favorite rom. Could you add some screenshots
Nick'sAMytouch4GLover<3
dude you started 3 threads and they all basically say the same thing??? all the info you need is in the development section....
I was trying to delete it but idk gow man

If you want a lot of customization try a miui rom. The demonspeed miui ROM is as smooth as eggs.

It's kind of pointless to throw up a CM7 screen shot, because it's so customizable that I can make it look like any other ROM, including Sense and Miui.
You're just gonna have to give each ROM a try and see which one is your favorite. Depends what you like the best, AOSP, Sense or MIUI?
Btw, I suggest to not make anymore threads about the same subject. You'll attract a MODS attention.

Anything good non sense ?

Royal Ginger 3.0.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Well, I've been using HoneySense 8 released a few days ago and battery life is incredible. Give it a shot maybe? UI is awesome. Has some quirks yet though' but it's stable. Only problems I've found is the innability to use front-facing camera in the stock app and well, what everyone is talking about in the thread, not being able to use wi-fi calling.
EDIT: OH sorry, if you're looking for anything other than sense, MIUI is my other choice. Used it for a few months back when I had a T-Mo G2/desire Z. I don't know the specs on how it works on the MyTouch 4g, but there's already an official release and some mods out there~ look em up.
my progression:
CM7, Unity, Royal Ginger and now MIUI
Loved Royal Ginger but I like the camera, messaging and dialer on MIUI so i'm staying with it. Plus you can sent MMS on WIFI with MIUI.
MIUI all the way. using the demonspeed mod and TDJ's kernel, its just awesome. great battery life(my best was 23hrs on a full charge), performs very well, and has many themes for customizing. check it out

Derek offers a excellent ROM, and he's quite helpful with your problems(unless you're rude), but besides that it's my top recommendation.
but i think MIUI is unstable sometime
especially when im playing music ,it break down and i just cant shut the power down since it doesnt response ,the only way to solve is to remove battery
My first rom was virtuous unity(sence3.0).. great one! then I tried virtuous doubleshot(sence3.0) and now using MexDroidmod (based on Cyanogen?) Fast and good battery life. Now I need to figure out what next lol

I am currently on CM7 and i am just wondering what rom everyone is running. And why they are running it like whats the pro's and con's to the other roms i am very happy with cm7 just wanting to know about everything else.
Very broad question. No real clear answer. If yer looking to stay with non-gingerbread based, I would suggest Neutrino, as its new, maintained, and is built on cm7 weekly 4. Highly themed,/ customized, and very fast. If yer looking for a stock experience, the new 2.3.6 version of gingerbread is available to flash in the fruitcake section and there is a rom called Gingermod built from it.

Cm9 kang. Honestly not that unstable, using it for 2 days now and its fine. Great breath of fresh air for my atrix

Neutrino 1.4-S EE because it's slim, sexy, fast and compact. It's also based on CM7 and Faux's Kernel(s), which pretty much covers all the bases for me.
MIUI once it is more stable. i use it because i love themes and it is super smooth. good luck. try everything for yourself and see what fits you best.
LiGux fore sure
Thanks AtriXDA Developers!!!
Galnet MIUI ICS , it's speed is unmatchable.
Pros: ICS Framework, speed, and great battery life. Oh and because its MIUI
Cons: Poor game support for some reason :/ I'm assuming its because of the ICS Framework but not sure.
Overall my favorite rom so far
Definitely go with Neutrino 1.4 EE-S, great battery life, smooth ROM, and extremely fast!
Aura here! I think CM7 will be the best rom, but still unstable until final version.
I use CM7 weekly #4 at the moment, mostly because of (a) power control in notifications, (b) lockscreen gestures, and (c) skip tracks using volume long-press. If any Blur-based ROM had those features I'd switch back to Blur, for WebTop (and conversely would not consider switching if CM had WebTop or HDMI mirroring).
Neutrino looks like it could be good, but to be honest I'm always wary of ROMs that promise to be "faster", "more stable" or "better battery life" than CM or Stock. 9 times out of 10 I don't notice a difference

Yup. I have noticed slightly better battery life than CM7 Weekly 4. It just seems to work fine and fast with no hiccups.

I highly agree. Its impossible to be faster that stock cm7.I hate how a Dev uses I'm faster than your rom techniques. Miui for me. Nuetrino and others promise so much but its so plain and buggy. Might as well have bling with my bugs

Darkside. It is incredibly smooth and trouble-free, supports as much or as little of Blur that I want, supports all features of the Atrix 4G, and has absolutely incredible battery life. Additionally, the developer is very responsive to requests and is diligent with upgrades.
For the Atrix I recommend the Neutrino rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398819
He took cm7 and ripped out all the bloat for the Atrix
I also think that the Neutrino Rom is the best. I am excitedly awaiting ICS, but for now, Neutrino EE is what I am using.
Neutrino. Everything works unlike other roms right now

Had to move back to cm7 since every other ROM gives me screen bugs. Gonna try out the ics kang soon

Darkside for me. I loved cm7 but lapdock requires a Motorola Rom. Darkside is the most up-to-date with a superb developer.
For those who need lapdock functionalities, it's wonderful. I also feel the battery life is better than cm7.

i kindof feel a special connection to neutrino rom spent afew days being a flash aholic wile test builds were uploaded and downloaded by me
overall its real fast,smooth its been the best experience on a cm7 based rom to date
