[Q] Froyo 2.2 ROM resembling original HTC one?

Hi all,
been playing around with my Magic last night and currently have the CM6 - FroyoRedux Mod v1.9 installed, gave the CM6-D/S a go as well but it didn't appear to have market?
Anyway, these roms do not look anything like the Froyo on my HTC Desire, if I recall correctly they are ported from/resemble Samsung Galaxy S?
Was wondering if there are any ROMs that do look and work like the original HTC one?
Cheers
//J

hey,
what you are looking for is roms with the HTC Sense user interface (your desire is running android 2.1 with the htc sense on top).
i don't know of any 2.2 roms that have sense, but if you don't mind having 2.1+sense then try RCMix from capychimp or Smoki from klothius. both in the development section/forum. if you just want to have the sense interface on your magic and don't need the latest android (2.1 or 2.2) then i'd really recommend cursorsense from cursor droid. that's a 1.5 rom with sense and it runs perfectly - you can even overclock the cpu up to 710mhz with that rom (of course you have to flash the overclocked kernel over the rom and then use the program setcpu to overclock the cpu). you'll find cursorsense and the thread that has the overclocked kernel in the "rom bible" thread in the development section/forum.
so:
2.2 + sense: don't think there's one out yet
2.1 + sense: RCMix or Smoki
1.5 + sense: cursorsense (fast, very, very stable no problems at all plus option to overclock cpu).
try them out if you like!
greetz,
vercetti.

Cheers for the reply!
I'm running 2.2 on the Desire though, they released it in the beginning of August.
To be honest I don't really know the differences between 1.5 and 2.1, might try all of your suggestions while I'm at it
//Joris

no prob,
biggest difference for me between 1.5 and 2.1 is that google maps has navigation feature. to get a good glance what the differences between the versions are i'd suggest to just google "android 1.5", "android 2.1" and look for a features/improvements/comparison list.
if you don't need the changes they made since 1.5 then definetely go with cursorsense + overclocked cpu. you won't regret it...
greetz,

What kind of audio issues you're talking about?
I have used radio 2.14.50.4 comes with stock 3.14, but it gave me some echoes with some builds, then I reverted back to 2.12.50.02 and didn't any problems with it.

Ok, I will add this to the list.

Audio issues
I dont know whether it is audio issues or due to signal interference,this is what i did and found out
1) i installed the miri rom that froyostone recommends and the radio 2 14 50 04, i called my friend who was in the same house (with my home wireless on) there was a lot of echoing as soon as i turn the speaker mode on on either phones(other phone is samsung highlight).there was minimal echo present when i did with speaker off.
2)i flashed the new energy rom standard build and installed the radio 2 10 50 26 , and the froyostone 3.1 android build and called my friend who was at home with home wireless on.there was minimal echo with both or either phone speakers on when calling but none with speakers off. Then i did the same after my friend returned to his home and i called him from my phone(hd2) with either / both speakers on there was no echo on either ends.
Conclusion i dont know why i was getting the echo in my house, is the us version slightly different in hardware other than the rom/ram on it. Or the radio signal frequency interference, you can try this at home and please let me know what happens.
I dont know whether darkstone uses us hd2 or non us hd2.but the
energy rom is highly specific for us hd2 model ,i dont have any issues with it now.

US HD2
I think it will be good for all us hd 2 users to use the us hd2 specific roms for android testing for better results

I tested many Android ROMs... as some one already said.. some builds has robo voice issues.. so you can't say that all android builds are OK with TMOUS
Keep testing and update the thread

I've tested these two builds and are working superb!!

It seems as if every current build works with TMOUS 3.14 - this thread is obsolete

Obsolete list? t-mous stock ROM still having issues with new android builds.
ROMS tried and failed due to robo voice:
hyperdroid1.7/CM6-michyprimaR11
mattc LEO+froyo sense 1.8
HD2ONE0.3.2/CM6.1
bangstersv.1.5
Currently running successfully on stock t-mous ROM 3.14, 2.15.50 radio, HSPL 2.08, 8GB class 4 microSD :
M-Deejay froyo sense clean v. 2.4-kernel MDJ S6.1 with the green camera tint fixed with M-Deejay's desire based build.prop.
1. format your sd card to fat32. Copy the android folder to SD.
2. unload all today plugins including sense.
3. turn off voice command in settings.
4. reboot, run clrcad.exe and haret.exe as soon as possible after boot up.
I manage 4-5 mah draw in standby, 12-14 hours of use with normal usage (30 minutes of calls, 20 to 30 SMS, 30 minutes of web browsing). If you wait too long to run clrcad.exe and haret.exe, the minimum power drain was 54 mah in standby. YMMV

If you are interested in Sense 3.0 GB 2.3, I would recommend either Angeldeath's or Dungphp's Roms. Everything works in both with the exception of the camcorder and some minor graphic glitches.....

Are you sure it s a stable version.

Is that true.

Yes, I'm sure they are stable. I have been switching between both of them for the last month. I am happy with both Rom's. The camcorder issue is an issue with sense 3.0 roms on the HD2. The 3rd party apps can make it work but it will lag a bit...

WHEN and i mean IF my phone gets fixed, im switching up to boyppc ginger sense..I hear good things about it! anybody running his rom and what version? sorry for TJ'ing

Is there any newer version to gingerbread that can be installed on HD2 ?
Like android 3.1 or 3.2 ?

3 is honeycomb which is for tablets

reaction
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060 this one seems pretty stable.
If there will be an update of android for smartphones, i think it will be 2.4 and 2.5

2.3.5 is on it's way to the nexus s at the moment and cyanogen is qlready trying to implement it.
Stable versions where all is working are ndt miui 20.1 or hd2ginger or ndt ginger or hyperdroid ROMs. But most cm7 ROMs have higher battery drain than miui or stock ginger ROMs.

I am trying to flash teh steps in your link, but after I run ROMUpdateUtility, nothing is happeneing, it s always showing 0 % ...
any idea what to do ?

I tried both CLK and MAGLDR and both they show HTC screen, and teh bar stays on 0 % ...

If looking for non sensed roms, i recommend you to flash tytung's Nexushd2 v2.8 + GPS 1.8.. very stable no graphic glitch nor camcorder issue. GPC's pure gingerbread rom is also great but its discountinued since v2.6f
These roms are capable to play 720p of youtube
For the faster user interface, download launcher pro from market (the stock launcher is slow on our old hd2)
also these roms support cLK and MAGLDR

I'm new to the forums (of hd2, so new in the flashing progress)
Although, you have to install Hspl, I know from the touch diamond
I'm very sorry, but got nothing to test it on, got an HD2 in 3 weeks...
Need to wait Maybe an other member can help
(link to hspl install guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433 - Think this one is pretty good.)
//Hardspl is needed to flash everything, thats why you'll need it

[Q] Idiot Q. Coredroid v3 or v1.7 ?

Very very new to android (less than a month!), got hold of a HD2, ran windows for about 10 minutes and then wiped it and loaded up coredroid v1.7. (using 2.2.1)
Now after a bit more nosing around, i've found there is a v3 (using 2.3.3), but it's confusing me as the 1.7 has a later release date and logically that should mean it's had more development, etc.
Now i see the main CD thread has a teaser vid of what could be v1.8 ....
Am i going mad or just being simple? (there is a viable third option of both!)
Thanks

2.2 versions is Froyo, 2.3 gingerbread
to much differences to list, just search froyo or gingerbread.

Froyo 1.7 or V1.7 is more stable everything works. V3 or gingerbread works but it is kind of slow its like running gingerbread on a cliq! all Gingerbread sense roms are still under development due to different issues pertaining to our HD2 kernels. regular gingerbread from Cyanogen(CM 7) and MIUI are more stable and everything works. A kernel is in progress to get sense running properly but it needs more development. we will probably have Ice Cream sandwich on our HD2 before that happens but thats just my opinion concerning the latter(kernel development). Hope this helps.

Much appreciated, thanks.

[Q] Best Nand rom for HD2 with sense to you

Hello all
I ve tested some releases on sd card, those drain all my battery, so i ve decided to go a nand rom.
But i need a clean release without any tweak (exept those for hd2) with SENSE.
And really simple to instal (win .exe maybe)?
Which release can you recommend to me?
TIA
(I have an eurpean one)

Energy Desire HD is the best nand rom with sense go to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733649

There are loads of SD Sense ROMs? Just look for pretty much anything by MCCM or BoxMax, you can find Sense 3.0, 2.0, 2.1 and 3.5. I would recommend Sense 2.0 as the best (Froyo), it's almost as fast and stable as the average CM7/MIUI/AOSP ROM.

i would go with Team Blue droid.
phenomenal rom and super fast,
used to be a fan of energy series, but
would occasional hiccups here and there.
Good luck!
