Some people might happen to like sense (not one of them but the reviewers sure seem to love it)

Let me ask you this. What is not working on that rom?

The only thing that I have found so far is 4g. I tried cm6 and had tons of problems.none of which I have had in this one.

Not sure if it is or not but I can tell you it runs 10 times smoother....
WiFi is buggy when trying to connect to a secured network, 4G does not work, battery is the same as every ROM, if you use all the features and apps that came with the phone it Sucks, They all Suck.

I've been using this ROM for a few days, I'd tried the CM Nightly builds and I always come back to Decks ROM. None of them are 100% but they both are solid, I just prefer Decks, I also prefer a Sense ROM.

the battery on Deck's is def better
and it's way less buggy. I know CM6 is just a nightly but if you're looking for a Froyo rom that has camera available I recommend Deck's
the biggest bug is that the LED does not work at all. Also I am getting awful scores in quadrant with it.
pick your poison I guess

I am still having WiFi problems on secured networks.
Sent on my cursed EVO

anyone else tried this ROM yet??? Feedback??

Well, on that note... Baked Pastries isn't th at bad... It seems to have a lot of things going for it as well...

I used both cm6 nightly and Deck. I lean towards Deck for the sense. Both are great though. Deck is an excellent chef coming over from windows mobile. He is top notch.

Why would anyone want to ruin Froyo with Sense?

What's so great about Froyo??? IYO

Is it just me, maybe I missed something, .. been anxiously awaiting 2.2, flashed it today, what are the pros? No wifi tether, capped fps, no UI enhancements (that I noticed). Anyone wanna tell me they are lovin it, and why? Maybe I was expecting too much.

this should not be posted here. post in q and a.

and how about making your phone 3 to 5 times faster!!!
use the search button to the top right

It's much faster for one and more refined than earlier builds. That last past is much more apparent in aosp builds then with sense. And there is WiFi tether. You just have to use the latest apk. And just an FYI, prepare to ne flamed by someone. This type of post belongs in q&a.

so WiFi Tethering is working on your ROM? if so that is great to hear.
I going to go read your thread and try to get some confirmation of this.

You really really can tell the phone is less sluggish. Video-taking is much improved because of this. The speed of which i can snap photos of funny **** my kids are doing is so important to me. They can be doing funny things for half a second and can't stand any lag.
The signal seems improved to me in my area with the new radio flash. so thats good
The phone is just loads better at what it is supposed to do.

The only one worth mentioning in that lot is 4g.

Ya...Try one of the Kernels floatin around to speed things up

I just flashed BakedSnack's rom (Thank you kind sir) and it's scary fast. 47 MFLOPS compared to 7 on 2.1. I just tested the wifi-tethering and it worked seamlessly. I also don't have the FPS capped situation. I'm averaging around 50 at the moment.

I was just about to say the same.

I think the Froyo update was over-hyped. I haven't noticed any significant increase in speed or battery life, same 4G/3G performance, and Hulu doesn't work.

phone is too damn slow

I'm tired of my phone being too slow, responding too slow to touch, lagging..
I have the android 2.1 OS on my HTC Hero CDMA and I was wondering if there were any general recommendations to speed up my phone.
I would be willing to put on a hacked OS, root it, or do whatever it takes as long as the phone is still fully functional. I'm pretty new with this stuff so bear with me.
Thanks,
Surfline

I rooted, installed CM6, my phone was totally transformed.

Cm 6 - rc1 is a good start simply amazing going from stock. I get 0 lag. I must warn you always do a nandroid back up before changing ROMs. Its basically a clone of your phone's software and settings allowing you to recover from a bad issue.

+1 to all previous posts.
The Hero running out of the box stock with Sense is really pretty slow. I liked Sense, but I like a faster device better.
Follow the well documented instructions found on this site for rooting the Hero and then play around with different ROMs until you find one that fits you.
Personally I've been running Darchdroid and don't plan on ever switching again.
I don't even know what lag is any more.

Thank you for your responses.
Is there a link for a tutorial or forum topic about where to download CM6 and how to install it?

The problem with installing something like CM is that those ROMs are missing a lot of the stuff that you are used to using. And you might spend a long time downloading, and looking for the apps you need. I found CM to be not much faster and a pain in the ass in some ways (the dialer is weak, same with the keyboard, etc.)
I know people are going to start pointing to all the apps you can download to replace what is there, but it's a pain, and time consuming.
If anything I would try one of Fresh's ROMs, which have Sense and most of the HTC apps. And his Toast versions allow for overclocking as well.
On another note, your Hero should not be slow. Have you tried a factory reset?? I have used slow Heros before, but when they are working properly there should be almost no lag with the stock 2.1 OS.

The kernel is under the thread cdma android development and as far as cm6 u can overclock as well with a different kernel and as for aosp vs sense its just user preference tryem both c which one u like best and stick with what works for u that's what there here for both are outstanding

That's the beautiful thing about CM6 though is the customization. I know its personal choice, but I actually love the CM6 Phone Dialer (one of the guys over on the theme board customized the background for in call to be a nice cyan color other than green) and like the AOSP keyboard moreso than the Sense Keyboard. You can however, install a variety of HTC_IME keyboards and get that same Sense functionality on CM6.
I only do a new nightly every few days and it might take me... 10 minutes or so to get my phone setup. That includes a Full Wipe, ROM Flash, Kernel Flash, Circle Battery Flash and now a Phone Dialer Flash. I connect to my wifi and the Market downloads all of my apps for me and I restore my settings with ADW Backups. Logging into an app every now and then doesn't bother me after I've flashed a new ROM.
This is an "to each his own" situation and I did use FreshROM for quite some time before making the switch. To me, I don't plan on looking back. I may be switching to the T-Mobile G2 when it's released and as soon as CM is made available for it I'll be rooted and running it in no time.

How do you get the market to automatically download your apps? Is it another app or backup? It won't even save all of the apps I had downloaded last time. It only seems to save around 8.

Miui Odexed Evo Link

Found this link to a miui build for the 10.08.2011 build that is odexed. How cool.

For some reason when I use the AOSP roms, my wifi/3g/voice signal levels are lower than my sense based rom. Is Miui better in that regard?

I believe it has something to do with the 3g signal strenght on cyanogen mod vs sense which measure voice so miui will read the same as aosp .

This really means nothing. Signal strength should be the same, just how they calculate the bars makes the difference. Signal strength is based on the antenna and the radio is determining a number based on the quality of the signal. The ROM will have to decide when to display a certain numbers of bars. Remember when the iPhone 4 came out and had "antennagate," part of apples fix to make it look better was to recalculate how bars are calculated:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-30686_3-20009564-266.html
So, even though you may see few bars on AOSP or MIUI vs Sense, the actual signal quality should be the same. Try speed tests or voice calls to confirm that actual usage is not any worse.

Lith,
Question for you, I have installed and am currently running the MIUI with great results. The only issues I have so far is the notification for voice mail that appears in the top left of the screen is showing three voice mails and I can not get it to go away, and the *86 number for VM did not work, I got it to function by entering my cell number and it goes to vm now.
Great ROM though and the battery life has been far better than any of the android ROM's I have been working with recently.
Thank you,

Okay, I am pretty sure now that there are data issues with the MR4 build...
After BrickCity was released, I had issues with the phone saying I was connected at 1X and not LTE. I tried both the MR4 leak radio AND THE 605.9 release radio AND combinations of the two; the results were the same each time. I first used SpeedTest.Net, then I went directly through the SpeakEasy.Net website, in both cases the DL speed was always south of 0.5MB and the UL speeds were generally between 1.5 and 2.0 MB. This is compared directly with running a different Sense 3.0 ROM, based based on the 605.9 release with the same radio combination AND from the same location.
When Nino was released, I jumped on it, thinking that the build prop and kernel changes would have resolved the issue.
As an additional check, I tried to watch the NFL mobile video while showing a full 4G LTE signal, and the app produced an error indicating I was on a 1X signal and the video could not be streamed.
I liked this ROM enough to donate to the DEV, so don't think this is just me being a hater. This ROM is a true work of art. It is smooth and looks phenomenal!
If you sort out the data issues, this would hands down be the best ROM out there, bar none!
Thanks for all your time and hard work.

+ 1. In fact, though I am not running NINO, this ROM is awesome! I didn't have a single FC in the roughly 12 hours I was testing it!
Also, to answer a previous question about kernels,... I used both the stock kernel and Imoseyon's 6.1 kernel. Data rates were not noticeably different, still at about 0.3 MB down.

This rom is working excellent for me. I'm completely stock and have not experienced a single force close. Data speeds are fine with stock kernel. Check your speeds with the xfinity speed test website online. Thank you R3Ds for another winner.
