Hay guys im new to this forum and new to rooting and roming phones. First of all i was able to root the my touch 4g and add a new rom the first rom i add was royal ginger older version before i noticed the update. I liked that room but the problem was that i could not watch stream videos at all or flash even though i updated the room to royal ginger 3.0 latest version and nothing it seemed that the flash did not work properly. So last night i decided to try a new rom so i ended up using Android Revolution HD with sense 3.5. The rom works perfect and streams flash and usual stream sites my only problem is that the 3g and 4g switch on and off when im not using the internet or looking at streams it goes on 3g but when i do go online or stream it goes to 4g. My friends phones always stay on 4g but my doesn't so im wondering if its the rom. Also in advance what would be a really good rom that doesn't go back and fourth with the 3g and 4g and that is able to stream videos and flash working. Doesn't matter if its sense with android or stock vanilla with android thanks in advance.
The device actually does this to help you out. It goes to 3g to save you battery when not on the net.
Oh really i did not know that at all. What do you recommend as a really good rom.
I was on dark sense for a long time. Still think is a good rom. Decided to try something new though. I'm on android revolution hd now and its a great rom.
Oh ok i was going to try coredroid i heard its really good have you tired it before.
never tried core.
Well i let you know im going to try it out tomorrow and seee if i like it.

I am currently using COREDROID and its a great Rom..haven't noticed any bugs either..

I suggest darkside sense as well, i havn't found any bugs and it is my daily driver. otherwise you can try infernosense which is really good as well
Also check out MikRunny 1.01. I've had a great experience with it in terms of battery life and it is, I believe, the only other ROM besides Cyanogenmod that supports changing music tracks by long pressing the volume buttons when your screen is off. That is one feature I cannot live without
You can also look at cyanogenmod, miui, or virtuous. I have my eyes on creamed glacier, and looking forward to flashing this rom asap. Cannot base my opinion on yet since I have not tried it.
good roms
Bliss Droid & MikRunny are great. Fast, stable, all features working. If you want a little challenge, flash Creamed Glacier. It's a great ICS Rom, just still in the early stages, so be prepared for some bugs.

htc flash hero to Android 3.2 Ginger Bread or prefer to Android 2.2 Froyo
I wanted to ask how it is flashed to Android 2.3.Denn as I can read it here it is indeed the rom, but it is generally weak for the Hero? Or rather 2.2 flashed? For I bröchte already a rom, the but also in German
I still have Froyd Villain Rom but I read a lot of good about the 2.3 roms and I am waiting to change over as soon as the RC are done and Elelinux puts out a definite version of his rom(or Cyanogen).
For the german part, I decided for myself to go with english because it is easier to find as it is standart on the roms and it is also easier to describe with the english words when I have problems (also the descriptions use the english terms). As far as I know in most roms you can chose the language and it should work without problems...
but how do I braid at all? because I have 2.1 on it yet
I am not sure what you mean by braid, but if you mean root, than here you go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4257045
The roms can be downloaded here in the forums and then just flash them as indicated.
pigtail I mean how can I flashed it?
I'm using latest version of Elelinux-7.0.0-RC1-Hero-v0.9 and it's running good so far
Will check GPS connectivity tonight on the way from the office

I'm still on froyo but with a gingerbread theme. I'll probably wait until cm7 is final.

I think I'd very much prefer 2.3 Gingerbread
Will probably flash CM7 tonight just to check out... hopefully it will become final SOON ^^
BTW, I'm new on the forum
I prefer gingerbread using cm7 nightlies atm
I'm on the cm7 nighties too. The default keyboard alone makes 2.3 worthwhile!
First time ROM user....
I was at a loose end yesterday and ended up using ROM manager to install Elelinux 7.0.0 version of Gingerbread on my GSM HTC Hero, TMobile branded G2. I have been messing about with root and launcher pro/ADW for ages and was getting really bored with my Hero, too slow for lots of apps, too old etc. This ROM has given it a new lease of life and lots to play with. I haven't fully worked out what's what etc and am loathe to fill it up with lots of personalised settings and apps because I might well find myself flashing another ROM before long. Thanks be to Google for storing most of my stuff in 'the cloud' and making me NEVER have to lose my contacts again.
I am impressed with this ROM, no crashes, fast and efficient. Only a bit of graphics lag on swiping across screens.
Also, does anyone know why there is no pinch on homescreen to show miniature versions of the screens?
Thanks,
Hamish

I think Froyo is probably the fastest on Hero from what I've heard and personally experienced with a mix of Ele CM6.2 Speed, and Ele/Cronos Gingerbread builds.
The difference though, especially with Ele 1.1.1 for me at least who doesn't really have the animations and runs at 691MHz isn't enough for me to want extra speed by downgrading to 2.2. I'm happy enough eating some gingerbread everyday now, although it took a while!
Since my last post I realised that I was on 0.9. I then tried froyd villain but got scared. I now have 1.1.1 and it's great. One problem is the gps losing it's fix. Any ideas on how to fix?
I LOVE the new photo gallery and the camera seems better too.

There's a fix on post (change gps libs from CM7 nightlies..)

I put gingerbread 2.3 on my hero and it was so much better for a while.
But now for some reason it has started to run a bit slow not loading the home screen. I have not able to figure out why yet.
Do not want to go back to 2.2 now.
Launcher pro does not seem to like gingerbread for some reason. keeps force closing.
Still learning android an dhow to troubleshoot and optimize.
Hi, i'm now using rafdroid hd 4.0.2 at my eu-leo and want to cange rom.

Sup dude, if you want suggestions you should give us an idea of what you're looking for first.
I'm currently using CM7 HyperDroid which suits me cos it's minimalistic, dark and fast. So if you like those things to, I definitely recommend it. Another good thing about this ROM is that you only need a 150mb CWM partition, which is good for us EU owners.
I've only tried one other ROM and that was UltimateDroid. It's another fast ROM (I'm pretty sure it's based off CM7) which has a lot of theme options. It's got a more stock feeling to it, but if you don't like the default green it's got red, blue etc.
I'd also suggest having a look at the MIUI ROMs too, I haven't tried one yet but they have some interesting features.
Hope this helps man.

Thx,
i need a sens rom, and it must be stable. and fast is always good
I've had no luck with Sense ROMs so far. Not fast enough for the added eye candy. Been a long time CM user and finally tried MIUI yesterday morning. OMG! Within two hours I became a diehard MIUI fanboy. Been hammering it ever since and it's blowing me away. More functionality than CM, same level of zippy performance, but much better eye candy. It have yet to find one thing I don't like and it keeps amazing me as I stumble upon new feature after new feature. I don't think I can go back to any other ROM now.

MIUI needs a 120mb CWM so it's low profile like CM. Both good for EU owners. Unlike that damn 400mb for Sense.

One of it's few lacking features... true. Always forget about that since I listen to mp3, podcasts, and internet radio. FM radio pretty much unnecessary here in the states with the other alternatives.
I'm also on miui but I installed launcher pro because I didn't like the iphone like launcher. you should try it. the roms are very smooth and fast. i'm using the ndt one and won't go back unless the gingersense roms are working without bugs.
sure but i think it won't work on gingerbread when none of the roms have included it.
and well, honeycomb has the highest build number but it's for tablets.... just use 2.3.4

+1 to both posts. Don't use the honeycomb version. The one in my sig is solid. No force closes yet and smooth. I run everything at once and no issues.
As mentioned above, hypderdroid cm7 is one i recommend as well, it is very fast. You will need cwm installed thought but its worth it. Here give it a try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769026
Best sense Rom is cmxylogo hands down. V2.

Avoid asking about the best if you can. As for a ROM you may like try AmeriCanAndroid. It's a CM7 port that Copenhagen and I work on. I'm a TMo person too btw.

If you are looking for the most stable and fast rom, try tytung Gingerbread v2.9. Many will tell you that it is simply the best andriod rom out there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905060
This is kinda like asking what do you prefer crunchy or creamy peanut butter...your bound to get many different responces. lol.
Check out this site. It lists almost all the nand android ROMs found here on XDA in a place thats much easier to find it.
AmeriCanAndroid is a great ROM and its updated often so thats always a good starting point. if your one that prefers HTC sense then maybe try out RAFDROID HD. i've personally found this ROM very fast and stable. If you like more of a iphone type feel then try a miui ROM out. i would suggest LADY MIUI or D4RK MIUI.
There really is no one best ROM, i think anyway. This is because everyone has their phone set up slightly different and also want different things on their cell. just try out a few ROMs intill you find something you want to stick with for a little bit of time and see how it goes. It took me several months to settle on a ROM because i always wanted to flash every new ROM that came out. lol.
I tried Miui, Sense and cynogen based roms; Miui has the best home applications like the camera app, phone app, etc. The fastest (real difference), with lots of tweaks and the best baterry for me is Dorimanx High end rom, although some of his builds are not stable because he is always updating his rom. Im using dorimanx rom right now, although im waiting to see if Hyperdroid is updated wich is another excellent rom.
Hello,
I tried BoyPPC ROMs and it's quite fast, stable and regularly updated so it seems well followed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1199917
But I agree with previous comments that it depends on your configuration and your needs. each one has pros and cons and you should just test the one that best fits to your needs.
Since Feb I'm using AmeriCanAndroid (well, cope's sd rom at that time, before he and warrenb started together AmeriCanAndroid). Haven't changed to anything else since then. Have switched to the nand version since 2-3 weeks and I'm happy with it.
Pyramid
I tested many Roms.
Because I like that HTC stuff, I searched a long time for a stable Sense 3 ROM.
This ROM is amazing and works verry well and smooth:
Pyramid HTC WWE 1.35.401.1 - Real 3D [V2.2][RAF 1.9GB]
Iv been trying to get that one for awhile but is not working

If you never use your 4G, then MIUI is the ROM for you. It's fast, stable, and energy-efficient despite all the "bugs" people ramble about. It's also very customizable and updates every Friday to ensure you always get the latest versions and bug fixes.

I can't wait to get my hands on a stable ICS rom. It will just give us EVO owners that much more shelf life.
Question, I know there is an Alpha for ICS in the works right now. Do the developers already have everything they need to develop the rom or does a phone like the Galaxy Nexus which will have ICS stock have to come out first?
As for a good current rom, I'm running Mik 2.61, very clean, stable and great battery life. It's a Sense rom, different themes are available.

I am really enjoying using [ROM]11/22/11 RCMix3d Runny® ☰SENSE 3.5 Blue/Glass
i posted this over on cyanogenmod but no one answered. its dead over there now, i dont see very many new posts anymore. u guys over here r awsome with not leting go of the hero.
I had cm6 and everything worked ok but was slow. have cm7 now and its fast but don't have all of my functions. I have it working on metropcs and i cant send or recive pics, web works fine. so what rom do u guys think is the best? cause i was going to go back to cm6 but i hate having to go back to the slowness.
its all a matter of personal choice. i usually jump back and forth between nandroid backups of zero hero and cm 7, and both suit my needs perfectly. check out the roms section here, there are plenty of choices, and one rom or another will serve your needs.
edit: if you flashed over to metropcs, you need to load up the stock sense rom and go to ##3282# (##data#) and change a setting in there under advanced, and change the entry that says something like mms.sprintpcs.com to something that works for metropcs. if you google it you should be able to find what you need to go there.
I must agree is it a matter of personal choice...Zero Hero is tops when it comes to sense ROMS, but then you also have TeamHeroC...which is more AOSP with some CM worked in...and then there are the 2 new ones (Ajrty33, and Team Hyrda's respectively) that both seem to be promising.
In the end you really need to sift though the forums of the different ROMS and look at the pros and cons of each, and then turn into a flash whore like myself and some of the others and bounce back and forth from day to day because THEY ALL ROCK!!!
I was thinking about trying that zero hero Rom. but I read that sense Roms run slow on the hero.

Try to wipe and reflash. Zero Hero is a very good daily driver.
ya I wipe everything. I'm going to try the aosp......or whatever next.
If you like a daily use rom. You can try Team Hydras DX OS 2.3.4. I love its functionality and to me it seems to be the smoothest right off the bat. There are a few concerns I have with it but its nothing I can't live without.
Team Hydra recently released Zero Hero Tweaked. Im loving it. I cant post on the dev forum cause im a noob. But i thought i would show my appreciation here.
Its definitely worth flashing.
Thanks a million
:thumbup: glad you like it
rom
zero-hero or DX-OS
The fastest, smoothest, most stable ROM I've ever used is deck's gingerbread-hero-deck-1.3 (2.3.7).
If you prefer sense over aosp, that zero hero is pretty nice. I've never used it as daily, though.
