Hi all,
Now that you can grab the official 2.2 ROM (thanks devs!!), what would you class the main reasons for running it, over something like Azure, which we've had for some time?
Please list your reasons here, as I really can't see the need to change from Azure?! This is what I can think of...
- For Sense
- For Radio (FM, etc)
- For working WiFi
Root can void warranty?

During the last month and a half I have used Azure, CM nighlies and CM 6.1 RC1. Today I flashed the official 2.2 ROM update. I was very impressed by CM because of its speed and smoothness, especially CM 6.1RC1. The benchmark tests give almost identical results. Having in mind that CM is using the old .29 kernel I think it will get higher performance levels with the new .32 kernel. The only things I really miss on CM is the Sense dialer and the Sense weather widget. I really cannot tell which is better. The more ROMs available the better! I think it will be great if someone could implement dual-boot for the Legend
The obvious one being sense - I love it.
Working FM Radio, GPS, and Bluetooth (unlike most custom 2.2's I've used recently)
Working Market Place
Live wallpapers as standard
Better Radio (improved reception and wifi)
Ability to move programs to SD card without reformatting (a2sd)
Oh and the only program I used to root for is already built in - Flashlight! - its much better than any variants I've used before (3 light brightness settings etc).
oh and more HTC sensey widgets available too and WIFI hotspot program built in as standard
and I prefer the standard HTC keyboard instead of the bogstandard android one
Freedom of choice, ain't it great!
I like sense, I like not having to reformat my sd card to move apps. I tried launcher pro plus (bought it) and adw, bought beautiful widgets expecting more from it but was disappointed.

Couldn't agree more. Also, having your wifi work is kinda nice.
Wifi is working loads better now, the new drivers are awesome.
I am actually not that impressed with the 2.2 update but I wasn`t expecting too much either.
The WiFi reception is great of course and a major plus. The camera is also very smooth and overall speed is superior to the old kernel. The list of official Froyo only features I need ends here though.
On the other hand...
- I don't mind reformating my SD Card to use App2SD
- I am not enough into FB or Twitter to "need" the Sense widgets
- Never used the FM radio before rooting and probably never will
- Already replaced the official keyboard with SlideIt
- I really hate not being able to clean up my app drawer
- The Froyo dock is ugly and lacks usability. LauncherPro and ADW are way better.
- I have freshly cleaned windows and my neck is flexible enough to check the weather myself. If I am already standing outside in the rain, I don't need my phone to tell me that my haircut is in danger.
- The flip clock is way too dominant for my taste. I prefer TypoClock's purity
- Pure Calendar Widget > HTC Calendar Widget
- Barnacle Wifi Tether works just fine. No urgent neccessity for the the official Hotspot feature. Other then that I don't mind using the USB cable to tether if I am already carrying the laptop with me. Wouldn't know who else to tether for anyways.
- No homescreen rotation with the official ROM
- I don't need 3 different settings for the flashlight. The one coming with Cyanogen is good enough. Just let there be light.
- CyanogenMod can be customized and has a lot of useful setting that you can't change with the official Froyo
Of course I am happy that we finally received the update but only to see the new kernel and radio (and maybe some other Froyo goodies) in one of the next CM releases.

-Offcial = stable. There will be no "not working/won't fix" list. It uses newest drivers, CM is still far behind.
-Everything in Sense is chained : Contacts ~ Facebook/Twitter/Flickr ~ Gallery ~ Calendar/Agenda ~ Clock/Weather
- Official Froyo Quadrant's pts = Azure's pts (800~900)
- And ofcourse, the infamous FM Radio rocks!
My biggest reason to use an official is Sense. I love the Clock widgets because I have several timezones to keep track of, and I love them to all be visible on my first home screen. I can see the time where I am in the status bar, my home in the USA, and for my girlfriend in Qatar. I could never find another app as good as HTC's clock when I was using CM-based ROMs.
The fact that whitetigerdk and Paul had the official ROM rooted in less than 24 hours after release gave me no reason not to move from Gratiend.
I like the stock ROM for few things. Have currently loaded Vodafone based ROM and no issues so far.
- Stable exchange connectivity (email APK in other custom ROMS stops working after couple of send/receive (push) - have tried almost everything. Maybe MoDoCo rom was kind of stable, but again it was based on the stock ROM.
- Wi-Fi tethering is perfect
- FM Radio
Finnally a stable and official rom
Yeah the main thing for me was getting exchange email working nicely.
Push mail (exchange) working fine on you guys' official froyo? I still find CM RC1 email apps to be better for my exchange push mail.
And actually one of the thing I missed the most from RC1 is notification power widget.
Official v.s. Custom
Hi,
I enjoy using the official rom because the GPS, FM Radio, Bluetooth, Wifi work. I use the FM Radio quite often. I prefer sense of the stock interface, everything just works nicely and fits in perfectly.
Regards
Remeez
My answer is short and simple: i won't switch to stock Froyo ROM no mather what happens
Now i'm running CM6.1 RC and extremely satisfied with. The only thing i'm missing is flash support.

I realised that stock HTC rom is better.
Androot STILL WORKS for softroots and give me the flexibility to do all i need to do with root access. (take snaps, clean cache, titanium backup, etc).
So while my country hasn't actually received the updates, i am looking forward to it.
True right now stock Froyo might be better. But when the cyanogenmod guys release gingerbread, that would be better.
The thing is that developers are always faster than HTC. Plus this might be the last update from HTC. Then stock will be far less than good enough.

Your speech sounds like pro linuxers over everything... maybe you don't need any goodies in your
Phone, so please buy a 3210 nokia then... weather in time widget is fun, useful sometimes and why not, we love to see our phones doing some eye candy. The way everything is linked is simply amazing... and maybe you don't use any social features.... but today people who want a smarphone is for social uses mainly.
Maybe a cell phone doesn't need radio feature 'per se ' but if the phone has, a why don't use it?? I'm sure more people than you think buy this phone because the radio....
Since I have my legend i install every rom was released and I loved them, but sense interface even tough if it swallow a lot of resources is a very good interface for a cell phone and it's copied in a lot of apps or widgets.... maybe your intention is not to be rude but you sound soooo rough....
Peace and long life for android...

i have tried almost 7 rom, and only One made a big diffrent on speed, now i just installed DL.Desire and im about to take it off cuz i dont like it. slow down my device
try to put your HD2 on a treadmill and see which one RUNS the FASTEST !!!
+1 ohhh yeahhhh !!!
I'm going to release my rom tomorrow. It's super fast. I mean, even when installing an app through market, there is literally no lagg, or decrease in the speed. Plu sI can play a 1080p youtube video, and video. Also, i've done what no other developer has done, get 720p recording working on our phones. Plus I've readjusted the camera drivers so the camera captures more detail, and the colors are more on spot, but of course with a taste of contrast which everyone likes.
Buy a galaxy s 2 for all that stuff. xD

Desire HD builds need time for system to settle before they are useable properly and lag has gone.
If you want a smooth, fast rom you should install a non-sense version like NexusHD2, Its very stable and very fast.
I'm on my second ROM. Its the NexusHD ROM and its super fast and stable.
I'm going to try Typhoon Cyanogen this weekend.
I think its out of NexusHD and Typhoon Cyanogen for fastest ROM's.
I tried a Sense ROM first but to was way to laggy for my liking and it did give it a week with about 6 reboots - it was still too laggy.
I have until recently used Ultimate Droid 3 since my beggining of magdlr and it is a super fast and stable rom. But since its development came to a long pause I tried several 2.3.4 roms. Currently using Pongsters HyperDroid and it is very good rom. Before that I used tytungs NexusHD which is by far the fastest rom I have tried, but it is a very basic rom so I wanted to try a CM7 rom. Tyweens rom seamed laggy comparing to UD3 and NexusHD so I tried HyperDroid and still using it.
Haven't used any Sense rom since I moved to magdlr. I found out on SD builds that I dont really need it.
Best rom is the TyphooN_CM7_v3.3.7-MAGLDR.zip + my tweaks from my tweaks page!
It's just best! try and stay with us!
see you on tyween tread and my tread!
Try any cyanogenmod (ported or not all of them are fast) build.
The winner is....
IMO Hyperdroid GBX is the "fastest", turn off all animations in display settings and it flies! Hyperdroid Cm7 is right behind it in terms of speed (again IMO) probably tied by Typhoon Cm7. Ive recently become a big fan of "Sense of Eclipse" and if you want a Sense ROM thats the way to go I havent tried all the great ROMs on xda but those are my choices. Good luck!

Stock 2.3.4 is great stability wise and has tremendous battery life.
Iv been running zuluzulu for about a week now and it flies. Great battery life although I am a heavy user. I haven't experienced random reboots at all with it. Also if you like the notification power widget from cm7 its built into zuluzulu.

Agreed. AdamG's Oxygen Rom is my favourite right now. It's AOSP GRJ22 with some of the great features from CyanogenMOD built in (status bar power widget, improved widget picker, etc) and fantastic battery life!
A stable cm 7.1 (2.34) will be out very soon. No worries

With many devices over many years, I've consistently found that stock firmware is more stable and functional than enthusiast-developed firmware.
I have literally never found an enthusiast-developed firmware that doesn't have at least some minor interface glitches. Most have some problem that's major enough that after a few hours of playing I revert to stock.
Occasionally I will run something other than stock, but that is typically after the device has aged to the point that this is the only way to get a feature. By that point, it's usually time to replace the device, anyway.

I agree in general, but of course there are exception. When I had an HTC Evo 4G, I ended up running CM6 as my daily and it was exceptionally stable. At least as good as stock HTC Sense. Unfortunately when Gingerbread came around, that changed, and CM7 was not in the same ballpark.
On my Nexus, though... yeah I run stock ROM. CM7 is cool and if I had any other device (that came with a carrier OS and not pure Android), I would dump that shiz and rock CM7 for sure. But plain pure stock Android developed by a team of amazing developers specifically for this device, that's just not going to be beat
Hah. Google's "official" code isn't really better then what rom devs provide if they know what they're doing. The way google keeps pushing buggy code without giving a s*** is really disappointing. They release updates and then they stop caring about it. As some pointed out the gb update brought call delay and broke aac support, it really seems like they don't even do some basic testing before releasing a new version (which even the crappiest developer on the block generally does). On top of that, there is still no support at all for gpu acceleration in the ui, which is kinda retarded. Day after day i'm getting more and more disappointed about google dev team's job, they don't really deserve half the respect that many geeks keep tributing them.
Stock vs Custom rom on the NS was something I always thought about too! I only ran stock for a few hours because I immediately flashed a new rom when I got my phone LOL But what I can remember from the stock 2.3.4 was that it was fast, faster than any phone I've ever had. But there are so many features that are incorporated in custom roms and it's really hard to forgo these things.
Anyone out there who has used both stock 2.3.4 and oxygen who can attest to better battery life and performance? I am curious as well.
The last phone I used for a long time running stock was my N1 but after flashing CM6 I never really looked back. Speed increase was very noticeable and battery life was better. This is the reason why I never really bothered to use stock software for my next phones.
well, to be honest, i kinda regret to be flashed customs. Stock is so stable and has so good battery life, but now i can't live without cm7 features, just can't...
it's sad story that shows that you can't miss what you don't know! =oP
I agree for the most part, stock gb is pretty good. Using Oxygen now, and the stability and speed from stock + some nice features makes it a good choice!

In the case of Oxygen not much difference but I believe CM pretty much guts the framework and replaces it with their own heavily modded version.
does facebook sync work on all ASOP roms? or is it just CM7?
Just wondering - does CM 7 for Nexus S still have the video capture glitch where a couple of seconds are skipped near the beginning when played back?

Hey guys I know this question quite possibly gets asked all of the time. I'm looking for the fastest and most stable rom for my 32b.
Here is what I need to know.
Best rom, radio and spl combo.
I wouldnt mind it being cyanogen based as im a huge fan of the power control widget in the notifications bar and some of the options.
Doesnt matter to me what version is it, as long as its 2.1 or higher. Reason? App compatibility.
So please. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thanks again and sorry for the "n00b" question.
I just put Frosense by Rushness on and it is the fastest I have ever used. I have ezTerry's non-engineered spl and the alternate radio which gives +14 MB RAM
Sent from my Frosense G1 using xda Premium
I am using Frosense by Rushness & i think it's fastest rom that i ever see!
I actually just installed cyanogenmod 5.0.8 with the 2708+ mod for it and its extremely fast. I'll have to make an nandroid backup and see what frosense is all about.
Anyone know rom witch i can run Angry Birds without "laggs"?
Try an older version. I personally do not play the game or care how it runs. My main concern is how to make my phone run well on a day to day basis.
Cyanogenmod with the 2708 radio, and swapper2 using a 64mb swap partition has proven to be the fastest yet for me. All of my apps work and although i had to downgrade zeam to make it work with Eclair, i'm still happy with it.
everything is snappy. My widgets work just fine and the overall experience and usability of my phone is what i would expect it to be.
I would love a froyo rom and i may try frosense in the future. for now im content with what i have.
Froyo for Trout is very fast.
If your looking for a super fast GB rom use mine. It has 60Mb of free space, aways 20MB or ram free. Look for Nomy's CM7.1 2.3.7 in the Dev fourm. There's no swap,or MTD. It's under 40MB Zipped. Hopefully will be under 40Mb unzipped

Try Cyanogen 5.0.8 2708+
Aleks. Thats what im currently using with the updated biffmod kernel. Works great!
Wondering if the 6.1 2708+ would have the same success plus the little extra i like like notification bar power control and updated zeam by using froyo.
If i could get that and keep the same nice batterylife and speed of 5.0.8 2708+ i would be one happy camper
Still wouldnt mind a froyo+ rom. looks like when it comes to speed and stability its either going to be biffmod or froyobylaszlo. any thoughts?
xtreme-froyo-1.9.5-signed.zip
Google that rom or find Xtreme froyo, this ROM is best 2.2 I've found for G1...The battery drain is okay, in Biff it was faster, and in Ginger the battery was awful. I tried 2.1 ROMs but they seemed sluggish.
Seems everyone likes froyo by laszlo as the best feature/speed/battery balanced rom. does this do better?
never seen it here so i figured i may as well ask.
froyobylaszlo 5.2, spl latest, swap 128 +512 mb ext4 - my option
it seem to be fast!
What kernel? What compcache settings? Etc.
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA App
Just curious. Since i get great results (performance is satisfactory and battery life is great) with the biffmod kernel over the ezgb kernel in cm5, couldn't the same be said for almost any other rom so long as i use that kernel? The only downside ive had with said kernel is i cannot take 3mp pictures. The camera is sort've crap anyway so i can live with 2mp.
The reason i ask is because i would like to bump it up to froyo but would like comparable performance with about the same battery. Our am i just living a pipe dream?
What I need out of my G1 is battery life. I pretty much use it only for email (wifi and mobile). I've tried pretty much every rom out there for G1, even went all the way back to Donut assuming its battery needs would be minimal. I saw ezTerry's gingerbread and thought, hmm, I'll install it just to see what its like. I assumed it would be very hungry and I'd go back to something lighter. I was very pleasantly surprised.
I've had it running for about a week and a half now. I have wifi on all the time, and the stock email client is setup with a fairly busy exchange server account (push). The gmail client is also setup with my main gmail account.
I am averaging 30 hours like this between charges.
I should say that I do not do alot of voice, perhaps 20-30 minutes per day (on a busy day), so this is strictly an internet device for me, no games, not alot of surfing.
Hey guys,
today I spent all day reading about Android ROMs, but I'm going more and more confused. I'm using EU HD2 and have not enough space for application updates etc. For this reason I want to move some apps (navigation, games) on SD card. Can somebody advice me good, tiny and stable ROM? Great benefit would be ROM working in landscape mode, because I want to use my phone in my car in landscape. ROMs that I like are :
myMIUI 14 B6 [MAGLDR/CLK║Dorimanx║GB║APP2SD║CACHE2DATA║ZIPALIGN]

NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.5 (Kernel: tytung_HWA_r3.2
BTW good working camera is very appreciated.
Reading is not enough, you have to try them to decide which is better.
Most of these roms are already stable, and most of them are tiny (150-200).
For the best camera, I recommend gingerbread. what do you mean by "landscape" ? all roms have rotation, don't they?
Having a EU HD2 means you probably won't be able to use a ROM without an a2sdd script, or at least moving apps to the sd card, so I propose using an a2sd script when installing any ROM.

By "landscape" I mean rotation of main screen, phone dialer, weather or music widget for example instead of navigation or other stand alone applications only.

Most roms are already stable, and most of them are tiny (150-200)
but it all depends on what you want ie sense or no sense if you want a lite rom take the rom you like and delete apps from it to make it lite "ie all the aps you can get from market " then you can move them to sd card tbh i use a lite rom but the lowest ive managed to get it to is 150mb .(on phone)
why not download a rom and experiment with it theres a lot you can delete from them /apps to language boot loader gifs ringtones
download and install 7zip its a lot easy'r to delete things you can extract the rom from the zip to see what size it will come out at
I can say for myself only. By my opinion, AOKP has best combination of settings and tweaks which really make life easier. Battery life and speed of this rom are very very good. But unfortunately this rom was not very stable for me, I experienced hot reboots regularly.
So I switched back to NexusHD2. It has comparable battery life and speed, but less tweaking possibilities. Stability of this rom has always been out of question for me. It is solid rock.
TyphooN CyanogenMod ROM was my first rom on HD2 and I have only positive impressions of it. Switched to ICS just because this phone let me do that. Prefer newer versions when possible.
Hyperdroid GBX is a 50 - 60mb file and takes just 92mb of system. If your priority is to save memory that would be the best option.

I think you should try the paranoid rom. Shoukd
After install you have around the 230 mb free, and it was not neccesary for me to use an a2sd script, and god, the rom is soooo stable

Why not the Blue-orange mix v1.2 by jamal2367, pretty good ics Rom, quite fast and has the main screen in landscape mode like u want.. I'm sure it will meet ur needs.
