Recomended Rom+Radio - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am a new owner of a Nexus One, and I would like to install a new rom in it. Which one do you recomend?
Thnaks.

As enomther is gone (havn't read all the posts lately on his thread) I'm on cyanogen 7 RC4 currently (since 2 days) and I'm really pleased for now. Nothing that bad happened and I got most of the features I liked from enomthers rom. I'm not sure if it's right but it seems to me that cyanogen is currently the way to go (at least for me).
Maybe this thread isn't located right here, has nothing development related, general would be much better I think.

try this one http://www.evervolv.com/
great rom, fast, stable, works great for a day use without wonk
you can flash with it darktremor beta 4 and a new kernel from inetersecraven

Reading is your friend. And as far as time go try them till you find one you like. Simple.
Also wrong section. Should be in general. This has nothing to do with development.

If you want sense than use MODACOS Desire_port... of you want gingerbread use cyanogen rc 4! Very stable and fast!

Use MM HTC Desire HD v1.7 ROM, it is by far the smoothest ROM and the best UI using HTC Sense. The ROM can be further modded and tweaked to maximize your Nexus One.

The thread of MM is VERY confusing! Which is the neweset version, the 1.7 final or the 2.14? Is it based on desire or desireHD? Is it possible to get the stock look of htc sense? Is that ROM smoother than MoDaCos original desire port?

Stock ?
No-one prepared to stick up for stock Gingerbread ?
I am, was on custom ROMs all of last year but now dropped onto stock 2.3.3 & enjoying the speed, stability and features. You can always add themes and apps to change it around.
I am struggling with the Radio - it takes a long time to pick up the GPS signal, need to look for a Radio fix somewhere.

For Desire HD port, the v1.7 is Final and you can flash just that.
For the earlier Desire port (non-HD), the v2.16 is the final version.
Flashing either one will give you the stock look of HTC Sense by default (except for the 3G and battery icons) when you first boot into the ROM. The theme and skin is basically changeable, so you have choices of stock look or another theme/skin.
Yes, I have tried MoDaCos and ALL the other ROMs and have compared them for almost 1 week non-stop. The smoothness of Desire ported ROM cannot be beat. It may not be the fastest ROM, but it's very smooth and stable (and you get the beautiful HTC feel). One main thing I like about HTC Sense UI is that it's got many useful phone functions when you use it as a phone on a daily basis. Let's face it, the best smartphone should also act like the best phone. I am currently on MM Desire HD v1.7, and if you want the stock 3G & battery icons back, there is a guy that posted a modified framework-res.apk that can be flashed to get the stock icons back. Everything works in the ROM except for HTC Locations which I just cannot get to work. Built-in WiFi Hotspot does not work, but there is Wireless Tethering included in v1.7 which will provide you the same function. Also, make sure you flash 5.12 radio for the best signal performance.
Good luck!

So... you made me curious
So the Desire Port (2.16) is smoother than MoDaCos ROM and the desire HD port (1.7) is even smoother than the desire port (2.16)?
Do one have to create an ext-partition o sd-card?
The only thing that bothers me is that HTC Locations does not work

Hi,
The 5.12 radio isn't exclusive for Korean models?
Thanks.

The Espresso Sense one on MoDaCo is the best by far. Extremely fast, very good signal and not bogged up with ****e apps
But the espresso have the Sense?
I have the 1.31.XXX legend
If I root whit the r4 it's possible to flash this ROM?
Yeah it has the new version of sense, which looks very nice, better than stock imo.
And yes just copy to SD and flash
But ther isn't the italian language!
I don't find this rom on Modaco ? Espresso Sense legend htc MoDaCo ? can you the link ? thx
I found this to be the best rooted rom.

I have used stock, rodriguez style 2.3 and one of modacos. I must say every single detail is more satisfactory with the one linked above.
-Less bloat (like stock)
-Newest and better (?) radio
-Stable and fast
-Far more memory left after install. I have around 100 mb left AFTER installing all the programs and ****e i like to have, whereas the rodriguezstyle had 120-something after fresh install and around 40-60 after installing everything.
-Google maps pinch zoom
preety good

With data2ext enabled I almost doubled my quadrant score. But the phone lagged like mad. Without it it feels just like any other stock-based ROM

[Q] Which is the most stable/ reliable?

Hi im going to root my nexus one with the Universal Androroot 1.5.3 app.
Basically i need a custom rom that is very stable, fast.
I would like to try out sense UI, The roms for sense ui that seem possibilites are Evils Q&D port of sense and Kingklicks. Which one of those would be better?
IF i dont like sense i would like to try one of these roms, either cyanogen mod 6 or enothmers. Which one would be better and more reliable between those 2?
As you can all probably tell im a noob with all these custom roms and rooting.
Im currently on stock android 2.2.
I rooted yesterday and installed CM6 and love it. Can't tell you about the other Roms though.

[Poll]Which ROM is the best that you've ever used in HTC Buzz: Wildfire?
My first customize rom was puzzlerom but this rom is very bugged, the kernel isnt working good and had a loot of freezes. Now I use cyanogen mod 6.1 and I' m very happy. This is great rom with updates. Cyanogen's rooms are the best because I have wildfire, my frend have G1 and we both using cyanogen rooms. I never using openfire and I cant say anything abaut this... This is my opinion

Cyanogen would be my fav if it had flash in it... for now.. wildpuzzle 8.0.10 since 11 gives me lots of network dc problems..

Id go for OpenFire for now. Until CM gets the sim PIN fixed. Then id permanently switch to that
I do not get it - what is the point of "Whats the best..." poll threads?
You should probably understand that every single person is different, likes and prefers something else.
Imho Wildpuzzle 2.1 1.0.1 and Openfire 2.3.

Cm6 no need for flash imo, watching the youtube videos is enough for me anyways
I am going to let out a secret here............

there is..... NO SUCH THING as the best of anything. EVER. There is a Majority, and a minority, AND in between, BUT there is NEVER EVER a case for the best of anything. We ALL have different needs and tastes.
Want to Know MY favorite rom? Stock. Its runs near flawless, EVERYTHING works and there are no major bugs.
Want to Know ^^Kevins^^, CyanogenMOD.
Neither of us are right or wrong, it just so happens that our needs are fufilled by that particular rom.
Flash EACH ONE, play around with it for a few days and then try the next and you will find one that just 'feels right' for you.

rarrrr internetz!!! the poll is asking an opinion? which is the best rom you have used.....personally the best rom i ever used was the private beta preview of w[ildfire]ndows 98 with added blue screen goodness. available only to me in my head. second best is openfire, but at least it tries.
This poll is just for voting your favorite rom. I don't want any arguments happening in forums :X

all roms where full of bugs.anyway.the best rom is cyanogen.but as i said:every rom is full of bugs.
they shouldnt do it with the chinish version
The best rom i tryed when i used my wildfire was handsdown Openfire.
Fast as hell stable and smooth.
if you ever have force closes you only have to run "fix permissions" in rom manager + reboot.
Meh cyanogenmod, wins alot of votes only by the name.
VillainROM for Wildfire!
Openfire 2.3 combined with SetCpu, cant get any faster than that
Stock - v.stable and has sence and resolves clockwork charging issue (I'm not rooted) and I couldnt get wildpuzzle to boot

What charging issue?
Well, to be honest, i went back to stock rom, just using another kernel that's rooted, and gives me oc capabilities.
I did it because even tho the devs are doing a great job on these custom roms, they are still flawed, some minor bugs here and there, but it adds up, and i can't just fix the issues my self, maybe some can, but i can't.
I've tried WildPuzzleROM 2.2 Froyo v8.0.11 & CyanogenMod 6.1.0 RC2
i liked wildpuzzle best.
My vote goes for stock Rom , then comes OPENFIRE fastest and stable too

[Q] Question on ROM

Hi there !
I got my first Android (HTC WildFire) so can imagine I'm noob to these. I rooted the phone everything works fine now. I tried the CyanogenMod 6.1.0 (Stable) for HTC Buzz it works great but the main problem is the Location services is not detecting my location(India). GPS was enabled. Then the next problem was HTC take atleast 5 - 6 mins to reboot everytime. The Live Wallpapers just says it's loading and I left there for 30 mins still no improvement. So went restore the backup before i installed the ROM. So I wanted to know is there a way to fix this so i can use CyanogenMod If not then could you suggest me a ROM that has HTC Sense in it. I really like the features.
Thanks in advance,
Shyam
If u want sense... stock 2.1, wildpuzzle 2.1 (more performance than stock but more bugs) or modaco's 2.2 are the way imo.
As far as non-sense roms none do it for me, I guess I'm a sense whore lol
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Thanks Mate ! In your opinion which is good ROM without HTC Sense ?
I had a hero before wildfire and it was always between cyanogen and vanillainRom. I learnt then that I really love sense so since getting my wildfire I've stayed with sense based roms so I can't really say. Just nandroid and try I guess
even the most talented devs were noobs once... so there's hope for the rest of us!
openfire v2.3 has worked well for me, although im also looking for a 2.2 rom with sense that actually works

[Q] Best ROM for INCS?

Anyone able to tell me which is the best rom for the incs?
I really want cyanogenmod but there's the camera problem being so laggy and im always getting late txts and people aint able to call through even though it says I have full reception is there a fix to this issue besides flashing a new radio cause im unable to do that atm due to my hboot being ver 1.16.0000
Im currently using Android Rev HD and its ok but battery life fails. any roms better than ARHD?
Thanks
Its been asked befor, and the threads usually ends up beeing closed because its the same as asking: what color is the prettiest?
You can't answer that becuase its a matter of personal taste and not fact...
And then there is the whole matter about Sense or no Sense, speed or battery life, new features or stablity...
arhd: most stable..
u can try nik's rom: very cool visuals and sense 3.5
rcmix rom is released too try that one too

to the op...
you are gonna get various answers from people because everyone has different preference/taste. for me, arhd and vu2.39 have been rock solid. it's weird that you're having battery issues with arhd. it's one of the best roms in terms of battery life. there are numerous things you can do to improve battery life. i'm not gonna go into it here since it will take all day and it's been discussed to death. go to the first post in the arhd rom thread and scroll down to the faq section. under the very first question, there are a couple of links to guides that will help you improve battery life.
I'm using CyanogenMod at the moment, but if you want a Sense ROM, I've had great experiences with Nikhil007's Sensation XL.. It was super stable and I got great battery life out of it.
the virtuous team just released their sense 3.5 rom: virtuous affinity. you can find it in the dev section. i've been using it for the last few hours. it's awesome. as expected from the virtuous team.
there are a couple of things missing when comparing to VUv2.39 though...crt animation, extended quicksetting. therefore, my vote for best rom still goes to VUv2.39, only until the virtuous team adds the features i just mentioned to the new rom
Yes, I am a big fan of Virtuous Unity v2.39. I install that, then use ROM Cleaner to scrub off traces of useless HTC stuff, then use OC/UV Beater to underclock (245 Mhz to 998Mhz) and undervolt. My battery drain when idle as reported by Battery Monitor Widget hovers around 19-22mA, which is great! Note that current drain for IncS seems to be reported wrongly using Battery Monitor Widget - we can't get values like 4mA or 6mA compared to other phones like DHD. Cheers!
---------- Post added at 12:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------
Going to try the new Virtuous Affinity ROM in a couple of days after seeing what the other users have to say about it. And there's a new ROM from RCMix3D too! So many roms to try.. =)
Actually there is no best ROM...But there are few most famous ROM... like ARHD, CM7, Nik Trinity Sensation XL and bla bla bla...
Is totally depend on personality, some people like sense some people not...
So ask yourself what you need?
Pretty look? Long Battery life? or what....
If you like sense... maybe can test it out Nik ROM... is cool and i am using it, so far stable and smooth, battery life for me is good too...
Trust us : Nik_IncredibleS_TriNiTy_SensationXL v 1.5.

to determine this question... is just simply ask yourself.. what do you want..
Ram?quadrant score? CM7
HTC newest sense? with 3.5rom
just for root and want to get a better 2.1 sense?
there is a lot that which requires your preference..
I dun think CM7 is very smooth.. just similar to those adjusted sense rom by yourself with suitable kernel.
Try Nik Rom

for sense 3.5, try nik's rom. a few bugs still but some people swear by it. or virtuous affinity. can't go wrong with virtuous.

Main question u wanna ask urself is do u want sense or not and if so do u want the latest sense? Personally one of the reason's I bought an HTC is HTC sense, otherwise I would have bought a Samsung or Sony Ericson or something like that. Sense= ehab, VU or Niks Trinity xl which is what I'm using...new version out very soon..No sense=arhd etc. Flash a couple, back them up and switch between them to see which u prefer. Whatever u decide, this will become very addictive!
