After a bit of rude replies and non answers to another similar thread I decided i would post this one Asking the question. "What ROM are you running?"
What I would like to see is something to the effect of
"I am running TruPureXMM I like it seems like stock with extras. Feature x doesn't work but everything else does..."

Hi guys, I'm a little new to this ROM thing and I would like to change mine because it keeps freezing. How do I know which ROM is the best for me and how do I know whats different between them. Sorry for the ignorance but I've read a few of the posts adn feel confident that I can do it I would just like a little help/ insight before I actually just go throwing something on here. Thanks Nyne!

Well, first thing, I think this post belongs over in the General Forum. This is the place for Chef's to post their ROMs. But we'll let a Mod decide that and since I'm not a Mod...
The great thing about flashing ROMs is that there are so many to choose from. I can't tell you from week to week which one is my favorite, but then I do a weekly flash just to stay on top of the latest stuff
If your phone is freezing due to the well-known SMS bug, you can either find a ROM that replaced the HTC Messaging with something more stable.
If you are like me, you will probably pick your first ROM based on looks, and then from there you may end up flashing different ones that satisfy your current needs.
I've never heard of anyone breaking their phone by flashing too much, but you still want to be careful and only flash ROMs that have positive feedback in the comments. At least, at first.
After you get some experience, you may just decide to start going crazy and make your own
Best approach is to read the first few posts of the roms you are interested in, map them against any requirements you have and try a few. Read the various stickies and tutorials carefully first.
Closing this thread now.

Can anyone let me know which is the best ROM to upgrade my xperia from
WM6.1 to WM6.5. On which everything works perfectly and is fast...
Thanks in advance
dude, you are going to get different answers from different people, and only a few people too, and chances are not everyone flashed every rom here...
only you can determine the best rom for you, by testing and keeping the best and narrow down each to one you love...
asking a question like this is just like paying attention to polls, what if everyone you asked during the election survey were all tea-baggers? you think u can give an answer close to the real facts?
this question was asked more than a dozen times already.... try before you buy
@Spike thx, my opinion too
have a search in general sub forum, you will find "what is the best rom..." threads there in case you do like some alternate opinions
in rom dev there should be an "incomplete comparison..." that might give additional insight, but all said and done it's your decision
Mod. edit: CLOSED
Before anyone points out that I didn't post this is the main CM thread, I'd rather not keep up with sorting through the dozens of new posts to find out which ones are in response to my question if I don't immediately visit the forums after receiving a notification E-Mail, that is if anyone even notices mine among the already thousands of posts within the same thread. So, with that being said:
I loaded CM7 v2.5 into the NAND of my HD2. Everything ran great for about the first week. Now I am experiencing random reboots on an average of about once a day. At first, I thought ti might be related to overclocking. But even after returning to the default profile and on top of that UNINSTALLING SetCPU, the problem still persists.
It doesn't reboot the entire phone as in starting from the bootloader. It will freeze in the middle of whatever and fall back to the CM7 loading screen.
I see many people having this same problem and also many people with CM7 working just great. Has anyone yet determined the cause of this issue?
With that being said you still posted in the wrong section. This should be in the Q&A section. After blatantly stating your too lazy to follow a possible response to your question, its not that hard to just go to your statistics, then your posts and follow it from there. Its not like it would be pages ahead if your original question. To answer your question, you should upgrade your build.

Hey Matt, here is a suggestion for you:
The next time you feel as if you are going to have diarrhea of the mouth, take it to the toilet instead of spewing it all over someone else. I already stated the obvious, and there is no need to be a complete D-Bag and start something that doesn't need to be started by rubbing it in.
If I posted in the wrong forum, oops oh well no big deal but there are better ways to let someone know. The first mod that sees this would move it anyways It's that simple.
And in response to your statement about being too lazy, I went through this whole route when I was running WM6.5 and the CleanEX ROM. I was told to post any issues in the main ROM thread, and usually I would have to sort through 2 - 3 pages of replies to find anything that was addressed to my question that is, as already stated, if it didn't go unnoticed among the thousands of other posts. This might be the way you and many others do things, but honestly it is an extremely unorganized way of getting a response. Tried it, and didn't care for it.
So with that being said, I kind of find it hard to believe that it is just the build that's causing the phone to act this way, unless it was discovered that this was actually a bug with the build (?). No offense, but people tend to see upgrading to a newer version as a universal fix-all.
You cant just ignore the rules and post anywhere you want, just because you cant be arsed to post and wait in the roms own thread. This forum is for posting developments/dev info etc, NOT for posting question topics.
Go use the Q&A section or post in your roms thread.
User/Thread reported.
Moved this thread to "HD2 Android Q&A and General" section.
Oh yeah. I closed the thread too. There is no reason to deliberately violate the rules and post in your OP that you did exactly that.
I don't really care how much you dislike the idea of posting an issue in the ROM release thread because that's how things are done.
This is the kind of thread that really irks me. You know all you're doing is getting yourself flamed and irritating a moderator....
The next time I see a thread like this from you, I'm not only going to close it but I'm going to delete it and infract you for deliberately breaking the rules.
Consider yourself warned.

Hi everyone,
So XDA has made it clear that they dislike the question "Which is the best ROM" and will delete any posts based on this question.
I think we can have a thread that is more factual rather than opinionated. An actual comparison charts of some sort, with a long list of ROMs and which features they have or don't have being identified by checkboxes.
I know the general reply to the question is try them out yourself and pick what you like, but the idea here is not to say which is best, its just to provide as much information as possible so that we don't have to test each rom individually or go through threads and threads to find what we like.
I don't know exactly how this would be approached but if a this thread can become a sticky thread I think there will be a lot less questions on ROM features. Maybe the ROM developers can make submissions or whatever to the list with the features they have/don't have and new features can be added as they are made.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, feel free to move/delete this if inappropriate.
Thread closed,
While your idea is interesting it still falls under the rom comparison thread which is against forum rules.
The reason we do not allow these is, if you are a rom developer who has spent hours and days worth of work, putting a rom together, then somebody comes in and says this rom is better because it has X Y and Z, you can see how that developer would not take it too well.
The best thing to do is to simply read the OP's of the different roms in question and try it for yourself.
Best rom threads do not work in general because each user is different. If you give a rom to 3 people and say to use it, each person will get different results.
It does boil down to the fact the you need to decide what you want out of your phone and then try roms yourself to see which one is best for you.
Many thanks,
Ghost
Just curious. Thinking of buying one of these to replace my deceased MXP.
How is the custom ROM quality? Often something is a little wonky like the cameras or some sensors/inputs don't work or are a little funky or slow. It's hard to pick up the current state of ROMs from browsing the forums. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
HEY Mods! If one of you happens to notice this, please move thread to Q&A. I swear Chrome ate that section when I first browsed this device's forum page. Apparently I can't report my own thread. I'll show myself out.
I think the only thing that doesn't work currently is the "ok Google" hot word.
I personally haven't used any of them yet.
