Database Develop

Just bought a droid.

I just bought a droid to mess with when I'm board of my thunderbolt. I'm really excited about the phone because for about 8 months I've really been missing my G2. I know I that I probably wont permanently leave my tbolt for the droid but at least ill have a keyboard again whenever I want it. What smooth roms are there for the droid? I really want to run CM7 or maybe miui. CM7 working nicely on the droid?

If a Droid as twice the RAM a Milestone have so you will have much fun with any GB-ROM.
Because you have the same smal RAM like a Milestone, then you will have a App-Kicking Mono-Task ROM with any GB.
The fastest and smoothest ROM is Eclair (Stock) following by a Froyo based MOD.

For droid if u want gb use liquid gb or project elite they b oth have their cons and pros and a overclock kernel would be good like chevys ULV kernels to save battery if they work and make sure u use supercharged v6 script it helps it run realy smooth and use rzrecovery for recovery and make sure you back up before you so anything you have any other question just ask

Had my droid for almost two years. Been through MANY roms. Standard CM7 is a little too buggy for my liking. And liquid ginger has a bunch of call bugs.
I am LOVING Chevyno1's simply stunning 2.3.4 rom right now. No FC'S or bugs so far. Very stable.
Also running his LV 1000 kernel. But running it at only 800. I've noticed that anything over 800 mhz and the Droid becomes a handwarmer. Plus I've noticed no additional output in performance either.
Lastly yes, absolutely run V6 supercharger. It will make a very snappy phone for ya.
Pm me if you have any questions!

Awesome phone. I've used many ROMs over the past two years but Bugless and MIUI are my favorites.

Peter Alfonso has a pretty good AOSP Gingerbread ROM that I'm currently running in tandem with Chevy's low-voltage 1GHz kernel. It's basically a stock ROM with a few minor modifications. GPA16 is good, and GPA17 is currently in open beta but I use it as my daily driver without issue.

I tried CyanogenMod7 on my (now on warranty) Milestone, and I have to say.. CM7 is great, but, I really want a usable phone, the last days with my phone and CM7 I couldn't use the browser, after I tried to click on some link of google search, the browser close.. And if this happen on the browser, just imagine how was with other apps.
But, according to what I'm reading, CM7 RC14 is great.. Maybe when I have my phone back I'll try it, but for now I'll try FroyoMod.
BTW, Android 2.3/CM7 just bring to us 2 big things: SIP calls and be able to use Google Talk with voice and video, so, maybe is not a big enhancement.

Have tried both CM7 and MIUI, but sticking with CM7 for now.

And, here I'm with my new Milestone phone (changed by warranty)...
I decided to go with CyanogenMod 6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155454). This is a really great ROM, and for my, 14 hours of charge using the phone is pretty good

Are ICS ROMs Good? Stable?

I'm running Gingerbread ROMs right now and hesitant to move to ICS. When are ICS ROMs good enough for daily use? I'm looking for stability and speed that is comparable to Apex and Mosaic. Prefer to use Apex right now because it's the most up to date and most stable.

You could read through the threads to see what others are saying. But I installed it on my Dads cappy a few weeks ago, and he hasn't had a single issue with it so far. Before that he was on Mosaic and was having a ton of issues. I used it for a couple of days when I put it on his phone, and it was probably the fastest, smoothest rom that I had ever run while I had the cappy. I would go for it.

Ya I'm taking a brief look, but not sure which to choose if I do move to ICS.

Basic AOSP (clean untouched googgle android) is Onecosmic's. The soon to be CM9 is team Hacksung. There is a themed modded one based of Team Hacksung's work. Wich one is more stable or not depends on the user, up to you to read and try.

I use teamhacksung's every day as my main ROM, and it works fantastically. I'm still running build 12, so there are some improvements since then, but I don't have any issues with it at all. It is significantly faster than all the other ROMS I have tried (I used to use Mosaic...). The only thing that is slightly worse is the battery life. If I use my phone a lot (more than texting...like, web browsing, youtube, etc), my phone dies before an entire day of usage. Granted, I did get my captivate the first day it came out, so there might be a hardware issue there too.
I highly recommend it. It was the best jump I have made, and it stopped me from getting the GS2. Now I can wait for the GC3

The 'best' ROM is whatever you find suits you. Best to just try a few out and make your own decision.

[Q] fastest rom

Looking for the fastest yet most stable rom out there. Need to dust this thing off cause my mom suddenly wants a "smartphone" so i need a rom with no issues. What do you recommend?

i would recommend Froyo by Laszlo its android 2.2. fast and stable and ive been using it for a couple of months now

fastest and most stable will still have to be donut and cupcake roms, and truthfully if your mother dosent need much for a smart phone thats the way to go. if you thing she needs a bit more froyobylazslo is one of the best full featured yet pretty fast and stable roms out there. there are plenty that are good, but ill tell you this i gave my mom a g1 about six months ago and flashed her a gingerbread port, then froyobylaszlo, then super e, and finally down to super d with 2708 + update and she finally likes it!
so if your mom is only going to call, text, email, occasional maps and internet - go with donut - if she wants to be "cool" go fbl

[Q] Recommeneded ROM for Stability

My wife has Motorola Milestone that of course is no longer updated so it is stuck on 2.1, and recently it has started acting slow and freezing frequently, as well as more and more of the apps that she wants require 2.2. So I am looking to root and update so she can have a fresh start (I am sure some of the freezing will be resolved by cleaning the slate), enjoy the features of a newer kernel, and be able to get the apps she wants. I do have experience with ROMs (flashed a lot of ROMs to my old HTC Touch Pro, and even made a couple myself), so I doubt I will have any issue there.
My question, as the title states, is which is the best ROM for her? She definitely likes having cutting edge technology, but needs it to be stable. Or rather, I do, since I will be the one that has to fix any problems I would prefer that I don't have to reboot or reflash it every other day. Once or twice a month for an update is fine, maybe once a week if the ROM is bleeding edge but stable. I have looked at the new Cyanogen Mod 9 with ICS, but not sure if that is stable enough, so any input on that is appreciated.
Things to keep in mind:
1. This phone is from a smaller carrier (Nex-tech wireless)
2. This phone IS NOT active, i.e. it doesn't connect to a mobile data connection or a cellular tower. It uses wi-fi and is basically a portable computer for her (switched to an old non-smart phone to cut costs while we save up to switch to a new carrier when our contract is up)
If there are any other things that might help in picking a good ROM for her let me know so I can tell you.
Thanks!

I would personally recommend MIUI, if only I'm not having trouble with it messing up my Recovery.
and idk what u mean by the Milestone is stuck on 2.1. It can be updated to 2.2 officially.
To me, the most stable rom I've ever used is CM7 version 7.1.3 by HOHO Tho there are newer version, but to me, the latest version has black screen issues.

Thanks for the reply. I am actually in the US, so apparently even though my carrier distubutes it as a Milestone, it runs as a Droid. I have a small regional carrier that uses custom software, and it stopped updating it at 2.1. I was able to get it rooted and ended up using Cyanogen 7, so my wife is happily testing out android 2.3.1

I've run at least 30 different roms on my droid over the last three years and I can tell you hands down that peter's bugless beast wins hands down.
http://www.peteralfonso.com/2011/10/download-bugless-beast-v-gpa19-android.html
Stripped down, no bloat ASOP looks like the real rom and is fast as hell. I was able to run at 1300mhz no other rom has allowed me to go past 1200mhz without reboots/slowdowns.
Pete is the king of the OG Droid.

I run Steel Droid 10
After bricking My Droid 3 I had to literally dust off and charge up my OG Droid that's been sitting for over a year, did a clean install and I am in love with it my OG droid like I was the day it came out

he has milestone, not droid.
HONO is the stablest I've ever tried..
but this phone has some real issues with his locked boot loader,
so he freezes ALLOT no matter what..

I would recommend Cyanogenmod 7.1. That's android 2.3.7. Very stable. Working great on my Original Droid. I don't think the Milestone or the Droid have the hardware to run ICS.

There is CM9 for the Milestone by kabaldan on here and there is UltimateICS I have CM9 installed and it runs ok the only problem I personally have is the limited space means I can't install the apps I had installed when I was using CM7.2.
Also UltimateICS was fast but it didn't work on my Milestone as I couldn't receive calls.

He has a CDMA version of the droid. They are called milestones by most of the carriers. It's the A855 I believe.
Anyways. Bugless beast is good if you want a ROM as close to stock as possible. Chevyno1' Simply Stunning 5.6 is a good Gingerbread rom and Chevy's Steel Droid is another really good gingerbread ROM. Chevy is also one of the few still developing for the original droid.
Peter Alfonso has probably some of the best kernels on his site for the droid. Very stable and lightweight. You may have to try a few of them until you find the right one for the phone. Each of these phones is different when it comes to the kernel. My phone I can't clock over 1000 or starts to boot loop. My wifes phone I can crank up to 1200 without an issue and it runs cooler then mine at 1000. Go figure.
I would also look up raidzero's rz recovery for the droid. It makes installing roms a snap.
Here is the thread I refered to when I rooted my phone. Download superuser before you start the root process. makes it easier.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764470&highlight=z4root
Also a quick item. To get into recovery after you root turn the phone off. Hold down the x key as you are turning it on. release the x key when the M logo appears. this is helpful if you wind up in a boot loop.

Cm9 worked really good but if your wife isn't techy and wants a fast rom and good battery I would say cm6

[Q] Best (1stable 2fast 3new) HTC Dream G1 ROM out there?

Hi all,
The other day i have got HTC Dream G1, the ROM i have used a littlebit on it was Froyobylazslo. Since i googled and results told me (from polls here) that its best one. Last view month ive been using BB 9780 instead so havent used HTC anymore. But a view days ago i wanted to play arond with it. And ive noticed that it sometimes crashes. And since i have also been hacking around with a BB and tried getting Hybride on it. And in the end, after spending a whole weekend without a result just installed plain simple one of the latest official releases on it. And it just works. I want the same expirience on this HTC.
So do you guys have any suggestion what would be the ultimate ROM for me? Since my consideration is: 1 stability 2 speed 3 new.
Well features are nice but if it costs me stability or speed no thx. Because my BB bow without BIS and installed Gmail app and Opera does everything i need from it. Comfortable, nice design, Phone, sms, email and some surf. And a map to. And i dont even care that twetter and some other apps doesnt work. I dont really use them anyway. So as u see consideration for me is stability and overall good working.
Is the 1.6 original android the choice that would give me the stable system? Or is there still some other Cyanogen version that is old but stable ?
Thanks in advance,
Nikolai

1.6 android is still and probably will always be the fastest on the g1. now you can use the newer/better kernels and updated radio/spl to achieve more speed (14mb ram hack)
there are lots of 1.6 roms that are great. of course there are 2.1 2.2 and 2.3 roms out there for the g1 but they tend to have a few lags here and there.dosent mean i dont recommend them! im a big fan of lots of the newer roms but they dont have the speed of donut

hi,
U didnt mention any names that u prefer
ty

...
I prefer FBL -that is a stabel,fastes end battery save rom (whit farmatito kernels)
If you wont -there its HTCClay beuteful ROMs - superfast end superstabel, i mean fastest 3.2 end 3.3 this 2 roms -killerqueen.

Sorry, there hasn't been anything other than froyo and gingerbread created in a long time so I assumed you new the old ones. For donut the best is csdiv4 and eclaire super e, that's my opinion but check out the rom bible to see other views on the older roms
