Best Sense rom? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I recently had my Dream jtagged/rooted (thanks ezterry!) and have been shopping for roms. I am currently running SuperD which is working great, however I really wanted to give a Sense rom a try. Any suggestions? Nothing too experimental, just something fast and stable enough for daily use. Thanks!

Well JC's hero was the fastest and stable but it ran on 1.5. If you want something 2.1-ish then use King's Droid Eris rom or Vega's Legend both are quite equal in speed and stability(imo). Running the Eris port(don't know why) and find myself frustrated on app load times and battery intake. I would consider not using 2.1 first though, I would actually recommend selling the G1 as not much is going on in the dev section OE is still in 2.0 development and nothing has come out of 2.1 yet that is full and stable/fast. Either you don't have to take my word for it . Have fun with your new-ish G1!
Off note-ish: Lotta people getting their G1 un-bricked eh?

Partitioned SDCard. 128MB at least. VegaMan's Legend ROM V0.9.1 is AMAZING! I can give you a version with LWP and LED's if you want?

^That would be good. Is it better than KiNgxKxlick Legend2G1 and DroidEris2G1?

Sense UI on Donut?
Is there a rom that run Sense that is based on Donut?

^Hey you are using Droid2ErisG1, how is the battery life?

Not too bad, but I don't use my phone much durring the day. Heavy use drains the battery bad.

So if I want Sense I am stuck with 2.1 builds? None are all that fast.
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk

no, you can have fast and stable sense on 1.5 roms. none 1.6. and sluggish on 2.1

Wow, thanks for all the tips. Looks like I have some experimenting to do. I'm thinking I'll give Vegaman's Legend a try and if that doesn't work out, wait for a better 2.1 sense build...can't see myself going back to 1.5 just for a few visual trinkets here and there.
@protomanez: mine wasn't exactly bricked...it was the stupid Rogers 911 update...so, about as useful as a brick

im almost as excited to see this as i was froyo probably not going to be as smooth with sense and all but still looks great
incubus, as much as its great to have the latest OS (froyo) on our trusty old vogues, its starting to feel like running windows vista on my old celeron. Meaning maybe FROYO and all its capabilites are weighing us down. Maybe Froyo is just not fully optimized yet. How is the speed of this rom relative to the ROM you and DZO are putting out?

That's pretty much the impression I get when I run froyo, which is why it's so hard for me to give up donut. If I had a copy of eclair with improved performance, though, I would jump ship in a minute!
Sent from my Sprint Vogue with Myn's odexed Warm Donut
Hmmm... I'm surprised you're finding Froyo slow - for me it's as snappy as Donut if not even faster on the Vogue. Regardless it's nice to have this ROM from a native 320x240 device to try out.

Plemen, which NBH and build are you using? I've been using Myn's Odexed Warm Donut for a while, and before that I used DZO's Odexed Donut for a bit. Every week or so, I back up my Donut and test out the newest Froyo iteration, and the speed difference is pretty drastic. From my experience, it is about as fast as Eclair, but in no way as fast as Donut.
However, I would LOVE to be wrong. If I have just been using a buggy Froyo build and /or NBH, and the thing is actually really fast, I will so be there!
NICE!
I would love to have a faster sense available for my Vogue just for tampering.. But hands down Froyo is by far the fastest release for my phone. It even beats the NFSFAN Winmo rom that I use sometimes (just for pocketufo). Warm Donut was great but I havent found a single reason to stray from Froyo. While ive had some issues with rls 11 and 12.. rls 10 has been nothing short of amazing for me

not gonna happen, we are waiting for another phone comparable with the hero to get it then it can be ported. on another note rumor has it sprint will be releasing another hero update in october. keep your fingers crossed that it could be froyo.
This may sound dumb...but what more could happen if the hero gets froyo since we already have it anyway?

Right now Hero users have to choose between 2.2 without Sense, or 2.1 with Sense. A lot of people would like 2.2 with Sense.

2 months ago I was saying the same thing. Been running CM6 since day 1 and got sense deprived for 2 days. Flashed CM6 back and found some alternatives to the sense look. Now I could care less about sense and any official update. IMHO, my phone runs better, faster and actually looks better without sense. The only good thing that would come of it would be to fix the very few issues that are left in the froyo ROM.

Sent from my HTC Hero with Froyo...
I would only start using a 2.2 Sense ROM if it had the speed and options like CyanogenMOD has... which will never happen. So I guess I'll never use a 2.2 Sense ROM.
Everyone needs to just ignore fixxer. I don't think a 2.2 sense rom on our phone will be better or faster than CM6.
I find zenrom and NFX-hero to be the same if not faster than our 2.2 rom. Plus it's sense which means it just looks a billion times better than aosp, plus our phones were meant to have sense on it so naturally the battery life will be a whole lot better. And then you throw froyo in it and get one of our devs to spruce it up then we got ourselves a mini evo. Why have a rom that looks worse no matter what you do to it and gets worse battey life and download 100 different things to make it look kind of like sense and get somewhat better battery life when you can have the real thing? I'm not trying to start a flame war, just throwing in my 2 bills.

Out of Every sense rom and aosp rom I've gotten a minimum of 6 hours more battery life out of the sense roms. I'm not saying aosp is slow either, but with the new zenrom and nfx-hero, sense is just as fast if not faster than our 2.2 aosp rom. And yes...that's a fact! The only thing that is a little slow on the sense roms is the messaging app. Aosp has always been great for me at the beginning, but after a few days it just gets slowed down for no reason. And I only have like 7 apps that I downloaded. Aosp is plain, sense has style! Sense will always no matter what look better than plain ol aosp.......

Well...alrighty then. It sounds like you had a set up issue on your phone because out of my 4 Hero's..the way mine is set up now it flat out runs the stock sense rom's that I have here and has more gas at the end of the day, and everything turned on that I have to have turned off on the stock roms if I expect more than 8 hours of battery life. I haven't tried either of the other 2 roms you are talking about yet,but I might just to see if your just blowing smoke which I believe you are..since you still haven't validated any of you facts opinions yet..

I agree that zenrom and nfx-hero are light-years faster than the stock 2.1 sense rom. I'd even venture to say that its as fast as 2.1 sense can get, its pretty damn snappy. But I hope when you say its faster than CM6, you aren't talking something quantitatively ... because frankly, the statistics don't back up that claim.
And you're right, regular AOSP is plain and boring. The reason it's like that is to start with as clean a slate as possible, and let you theme and mod to the nth degree. You can do the same thing with Sense, but not as easily, and it will never be as lightweight because of the extra HTC apps. Some phones can handle the extra weight, some can't. I guess it comes down to if you want to work to make your Hero uniquely beautiful, or commonly pallatable.
I respect your own opinion (my wife is a Sense lover, so I have this debate constantly, and respect the other side), however recognize the difference between facts and opinions, please. If you want to provide subjective "facts", please call them what FOX News calls them: truth.
I'll just say this, my phone with CM6 was not as fast as it is with Aloysius 2.1. I get higher mflops and quadrant scores with Aloysius. I also get about double the battery life. I think it all depends on the user. I am not saying sense is better, but in my phone (and the way I use it) the sense roms are faster and far less buggy. I like that I only have to flash one file and I am good to go. No flash rom, then gapps, then kernel, then battery tweak, then theme, etc, etc, etc.
I just think the Hero runs better with what it was intended to run. Thats my $0.02 anyways.
Even though Sense looks great compared to vanilla AOSP, visual appeal is not what I look for when comparing the two ROMS. I love how lightweight AOSP is, but wish it came with some of the awesome HTC widgets that are exlusive to Sense. To this day, the HTC keyboard, weather and calendar widgets, and a few other items have no equal in the FREE apps section of the Market.

I agree. I tried CM6 and barely noticed a speed difference. I noticed several features and customizations, but nothing special that I can't do on my 2.1 sense rom. Actually, froyo isn't even all that to me. The only thing I want from Froyo is the marking/vending, but other than that there's nothing special like everyone says. BTW, I'm also using Aloysius 2.1 with my own theme I created.
This is also my 2 cents. And I am in no way saying that Aloysius is better than CM6, just that 2.1 sense roms have more of what I prefer.

Obviously you've never used Zen-ROM before. It is MUCH much faster than CM6 ever was for me. I've had zero lag and fantastic battery life.

Yeah, because no one else in your house is using a rooted Hero with something like Zen-ROM on it..
I charged my phone today around 6 in the evening to 100%. It's now 5am and I STILL have over 70% battery life left, after using it pretty heavily with GMaps. CM6 never made it that far for me.

Best froyo ROM?

People can you recomend me a good froyo ROM? I would like it to have fair battery life, speed, stability, and good for day to day use. Give me what you think is best under these conditions thanks!
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using XDA App
I would kinda like an answer to this question as well. I am going to be rooting my friends G1 and he would really like a 2.2 rom with good battery life. I am new to anything G1 so any help would be great. Note: I have experience rooting and installing custom rom's on my EVO. Thanks guys.
So far, BiffMod 2.0.1 has been the best Froyo ROM that I've tried out. It has stability, speed, and customization. There's like 5 themes to choose from, which I thought was cool. It also has all the unnecessary stuff taken out of it. I'd recommend trying it out.
Thanks for the suggestion Skate. I appreciate it. Ill have my friend try it out and see if he likes it.

Been using this for awhile, never had any issues, decent battery life and has great speed. Search for [ROM][Beta][in-development] jMod 2.2/AOSP 2.2 - Android for the rest of us - 08/05/10 its no longer developed though.
@Wright. Make sure that you show your friend the ropes about flashing froyo. Running froyo isn't a easy task at all. I've tried all of them and they always end up with some issue. Try Biff for now its the most stable froyo rom to date.

i disagree i am running biffmodV2.1 and it is fast as any eclair rom ive tried it has working camera and video recording i cannot find a flaw in this rom.

Yeah same here biffmodV2.1 is the ****, the only thing is that i might have to buy an extended battery since i only navigate with wifi, but when it is on idle it probably loses 1 percent in 5 hours.
i reccomend froyo by laszlo, froyo yoshi, biffmod and sparksmod

[Q] I need a fast, stable ROM, can I have suggestions?

I've grown to hate my G1 over the last few days (got an iPad [don't be hatin'] a few days ago and my dad got a G2 today) because it's so incredibly slow. But, due to the iPad I now only use it for calls, texts and tethering.
Can anyone suggest me a fast, stable ROM to hold me over 'till I get the G2? Donut or later is preferred.

Simply, stock Android 1.6. I always get back to this, this is my home ROM, my favourite. I just jump to other from it, but always come back. Speed, stability and great battery life (2 days isn't a problem).
i would say cyanogen 6 is fast, stable and excellent on battery life
Super froyo

how do you handle apps on it. as there is no apps2sd
i agree that stock is fast and stable. but 7xmb is too few for apps isnt it? i need about 150-200mb of my ext partition..
Best suggestion find someone who can make a rom for ya ^^ get them to add apps2sd to a stock rom and minor modifications including UV kernel and you have one of the longest lasting rom's and very stable plus a tiny bit faster than stock so win win win also by minor modifications I meant very minor as too keep fully stable you can always use the rom kitchen I keep hearing about lol if you don't wanna ask someone to make one for ya ^^

xD don't ask me im busy with zx and miui atm xD if you can wait till friday yeah should be able to ^^
Wow, that's a lot of suggestions.
I just went with HTCClay's SuperFast. Works great, although I need to find a version of MMS.apk that lets you change the font size.
Many thanks, gentlemen.

I agree. TheOfficial is so stable than the HTC Oficial ROM but with some interesting improvements about the speed and new features (tethering...).
The problem is a lot of new apps won't work: it's a Donut ROM.

Lol. I guess I can wait or figure out how to compile kernels. If you do have the time make it based off of CM 4

[Q] Fastest G1 Rom

Hey
I am giving my g1 to mom. I got a nexus s for $35 (I Know.......Awesome). I wanted a rom that is very fast stable and run basic apps like opera mini gmail and friendcaster with ease. I was hoping for a donut rom with 2708 kernel.
I dont want FBL. It is the best g1 Rom but it get slow after time and my mom in not a patience person to wait for a app.
Also is there a way to lock dialer in memory.
Thanks a lot guys

I use dream team froyo (ics themed) with no Google apps and it is rather fast

dreamteam froyo is very fast. I used it since November and it hasn't slowed down at all
If you want donut, take Enomther's Official rom in combination with the 14MB ram hack. That's really fast ... unfortunately I do not like the old fashioned layout and I am missing some GB features, otherwise ...

I switched from FBL to the Dreamteam Froyo ROM a little while back and the difference was incredibly noticeable. You're right that FBL seems to slow down, but even when I first installed FBL it was still slower than the Dreamteam ROM is now. I've noticed no slow down in the week or so I've been using it, very impressed. I was considering going back to Donut just to get better performance, but this has impressed me enough to stick with Froyo and keep all of its benefits.
Link?
In the development threads under dreamteam froyo
Anyone search anymore?

This.
G1 is not as fast on newer firmwares, as it was on donut.
