What is the best custom rom?

I like the default theme and am not opposed to it, and most custom rom themes I do not enjoy. Nonetheless I want a faster system and the ability for live wallpapers.
Are there any reccomendations on the best custom rom for this situation?

Also looking for the same thing, an overclocked SENSE UI ROM? Currently running DD2.7
Any Help For US?
Thanx,
Tee Jay

The best help you're going to get is
"This is what I'm running, but you need to try everything"
The reason why there are so many ROMs is because there is no "best ROM"

For sense run fresh rom or dc
And flash the oc kernel on top

ive tried all of the custom sense roms and i find this one to be the best. with this kernel OC to 710. its the fastest on my phone. and you can get live wallpapers from here.

There were two versions of the kernel there. I found out that the Fresh and Damage version is NOT the correct version.

Well if you like stability, and your gps and accelorometer to work properly. Ie you want to be able to use geocaching programs, and exercising programs like cardiotrainer then I would choose a rom based of of the official stock rom like fresh

incredikernel | no0b question

How should I go abount intalling intellikernel on cm7rc3 . I am a noob and do not really understand the importance of having a seperate kernel (incredikernel is supposed to be superior than the default CM7) .. would I have to do some tweaks after I flash this?
Do I need to wipe anything before I flahs this or any new kernel? is it stable?

Where did you get the "intellikernel" at. Is it supported for the Glacier?

That is for the Droid Incredible.
That is why it will not work on our phone.
You can only flash 3rd party kernels related to your phone, and your skin design. meaning you cannot flash an AOSP kernel for Sense ROM, nor a DInc kernel to a OG Droid.

But I am running CM7 RC3 ... which is AOSP.... I am a little confused.

But the Kernel you are looking at is for the Droid Incredible, not for the HTC Glacier. They are two different phones, with two different hardware packages. You must use AOSP kernels for the HTC Glacier.

Could you suggest one that you really like? and do I have to wipe anything before I flash any kernel?

Personally i suggest running the stock kernel that came with your ROM. And i will only use the kernel that comes with the ROM. The developers have built the ROM to run around that kernel. So it should work the best. I know Faux123 has built some top notch kernels....but i cannot speak first hand.

scroll down until you get to cm7 kernels and download the latest grandkin kernel! instructions are on the page =)

I use fauxs oc/uv just cause he's awesome and you can oc it to 1.8 ghz but you have to be careful when overclocking I'd suggest setting up the governers and profiles in setcpu after flashing the kernel. But no you don't need to wipe anything just boot into recovery and install

Hey y'all, I have CM7 on my Evo and tried to flash incredikernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848453 using clockwordmod rom manager. Everything seemed to go fine but now it will not get past the white htc evo 4g boot screen. How shall I proceed? I was going to just reflash CM7 but wanted to see what the 'correct' thing to do is, help please!
SOLVED, I definitely learned something new today. Kernels are phone specific haha!

AOSP 2.2 vs Utopia

So, which ROM is better for GT540??

2.3.5 is best in my opinion I tried the 2.2 roms didn't like them tried mur4iks work loved it never looked back

Wonder when there'll be Android 4.0 for the LG GT540. Will it be even compatible?

Guys, author wrote question of comparision between two froyo roms, so why you recommend gb roms ?

I know, and that is why I ask about Froyo ROMs..

Well, if you just want a stock looking, fast ROM, then go for AOSP, but if you want more themes, and other mods then go for Utopia.

I'm staying on Utopia.. and I will make MIUI theme for it when I get my phone back..

Works fine for me, try flashing gapps. Download this, put it on the SDCard and flash it using Clockwork Recovery.

Utopia anytime, miroslav_mm is working really hard on it. It's a lot more 'complete' than AOSP

Oops! I completely forgot my signature. As I'm always between ROMs! Thanks for pointing out!!

HAHAHAA

Utopia was my favorite until the RC3 version came out. I had a lot of trouble trying to make Link2SD work (I experimented with different versions of Busybox and finally I got it to recognize the second partition) but today I had another problem with WiFi, which suddenly stopped seeing my WPA2 home network. I had to go back to my previous version, where everything works...

I'm really intrigued about Utopia. I've read that it's fast yet it doesn't eat up battery like other roms. I'm just wondering how do I upgrade to that. I currently have stock eclair and somewhat of a noob when it comes to rom upgrading. Thanks

You could flash a Fastboot ROM vis KDZ. It could be one of the many ways.

[ROM] ICS-Themed OmegaROMv2/v3 (TeamCooper's) [Stock] [03-03-12]

I truly think that a ICS-themed OmegaROMv2/v3 is sufficient these days
I could truly understand the struggles TeamCopper is experiencing now.
With TeamCooper's permission, I present to you
ICS-themed OmegaROMv2 and v3
Theme is ported from the OmegaICS. Again, this is not OmegaICS. The links below provide ICS-themed OmegaROMv2 and OmegaROMv3.
I personally added OptimizeToolBox and SMSPopup apps
Launcher used (for both) as default is the xperia launcher used in OmegaROMv2
DOWNLOAD LINKS
ICSMOD_OmegaROM-v2
ICSMOD_OmegaROM-v3
INSTALLATION
Flash CWM5 (if you do not have it yet)
Wipe data/factory reset twice
Wipe cache twice
Wipe dalvik cache
Choose 'Install zip from sd card'
Choose the the corresponding zip file.
Reboot after the flashing completes.
CREDITS
I do not take any credit. Credit will be theirs with
TeamCooper
Devilsking for the ICS theme
Ketut.kumajaya for the awesome cf-root kernel
Slaid480 for lagfree
Gadgetcheck for TurboBoost
Samsung for the stock rom
madman_amit for 14 toggles mod
imbawind for Adrenaline Boost
No screenshots shall I provide.

You can download other widget in the market for that. The OmegaROM is bareboned ROM as you know so many things were removed to make the ROM light.

i;m using the awesome omegav3 .. thx for this but can we have just the theme ?? .. because flashing a new rom just for theme is kinda unreasonable .. i hope you'll not misunderstand me ..

I can certainly make a flashable script for you but I can't try it now on my phone. If you are willing, I can surely let you test it.

Yes. I recommend you this one if you like to use stock rom. For games, the kernel can be overclocked to max 902mhz.
But if you use wifi and 3g always, no doubt, you will lose battery fast. Using these can greatly affect any phone. But in general, the battery is quite good compared to the original stock rom.

I wouldn't recommend JellyBlast because development for that rom has already stopped plus jellyblast is a banned rom, others may not help you when you encounter problems.
get BeautySense if you like sense ui (htc phones).
however, you may want to check out other roms out there
I tested alot of stock based roms and I liked hyperion 8 pre gm the most.
+jelly bean themed
+Transparency in some apps
+Stable (no statusbar fc or anything)
+fast

I was stressing on the fact that we don't know what you like or are interested in , so for example I like AOSP Roms (Pure Roms form google) which has been slightly modiied but you may like Touchwiz more than stock android

I suggest you to Try CyanogenMod 7.2 Optimized by Android-XDA. Thos rom is an AOSP rom. Hyper Light (65 MB = More space for user apps.) Then this rom is really fast and Smooth. I didn't checked if thos rom has Arabic support, maybe. However, i think it's possible to add it. Check this rom you will not be disappointed.
