HTC Custom ROMs

Yeah I'm sure most of the other ROMs are great, but I am happy with LeeDrOiD for now... I am actually thinking of going to the Psychosis 5.0 ROM which is based on LeeDrOiD, just senseless, and a couple of tweaks here and there...
 
I had such trouble with LeeDroid 1.9...had a random restart or 2 every day while I had it on. Upgraded to 2.0 now so will see if it is better.

Btw, trinityEon, awesome work! Had it on my previous previous install(I think it was 2 back), will probably put it on again if I have time later this week:-)
 
Well, I took the leap and flashed DeFroST and I must say, I am very impressed coming from LeeDrOiD! Very nippy, nice customizations taken from CM. I will check it tomorrow through the day, its supposedly a bit nicer on the battery life as well :)
 
howzit guys for those that have tried leedroid are there any things that dont work?
how is the battery life?
 
guys how long does the latest leedroid take to boot up?

Hey man, Leedroid is quite fast when booting, except the first time after flashing, mine took 6 minutes one time... I am running 2.2d at the moment, and its so far the best I could get the battery. As for the things that don't work, I have not had anything not work so there is nothing that I can mention.

EDIT: Don't know why cookandroid is down.

thanks alot man
does the led notifications work? for miss calls,msgs,alarms etc etc?

was at the wrong cookandroid link
its working now
 
Also on LeeDroid, and I think also still 2.2d... It's a full Sense ROM so everything works as it does on the stock one. I'm trying to decide whether I should give DeFRoST/Launcher Pro a go again as it really does run amazingly well, but Sense's cloud integration is just so much better... :confused:
 
Yeah the LED notifications work :)

I am running Launcher Pro, I don't like sense anymore, but the ROM is just to good to pass by. But yeah I will stay on 2.2d for as long as possible, everything is working like I want it to at the moment! I tried Defrost as well but I had weird problems with the phone just not unlocking and the screen just staying black, forcing a battery pull and restart, but it could have just been something else I guess.
 
I like the sense hd rom, but whats the point if the camera does not work, and from what I hear doesn't seem like they'll find s fix anytime soon

The rumours seem solid that the Desire will get the new Sense sometime next year anyway. Although, having a bit of history with HTC phones, I've seen XDA do some pretty incredible things. They'll crack it eventually.
 
On leedroid - first time rooting and rom. Works brilliantly. V2.2f with carbon theme - i like the transparent notifications. Also using launcher pro even though leedroid is a sense rom.

Only thing has have noticed about the "install to SD card thing" is, when you plug the phone into the PC and use Disc Drive, it breaks all the app wigdets on the home screen.

If you have apps2sd+ then there's no real need to install to sd card, either way don't move widget apps to the sd card.

I currently have a 4GB standard card that came with desire, i ordered a 16Gb but im curios to find out if i can just copy everything over to the new card or do i have to format the 16Gb card as i did with A2SD, and all should work?

I would think its exactly the same procedure, just format th 16gb to get the ext partition, and copy your files over from the sd card into the fat partition. Then run titanium backup to restore your apps.
 
Yeah that post of mine was quite a while back. Been running A2SD+ for quite a decent amount of time now :)

yes i hope the new sense comes soon
 
So who has been playing around with one of the Gingerbread ROMs available? I myself have been running Oxygen v2.0-RC2 on my Desire for a couple of days now. One thing that I have noticed is the change in battery life, for some reason, mine seems to last longer now and by longer I mean quite a bit longer! Usually when I get back from work around 17:00 my phone would be between 20 - 30%, and since I have been running this ROM it would be around 50% at that time which is very good for me!

Only thing still not working in Gingerbread ROMs is the video recorder, which is fine by me cause I don't use it that often... Other than that I have not found anything that doesn't work or that does not work better coming from Froyo! I would recommend everybody that can to have a look at it, very impressive!
 
I agree, been running Ginger Villain 0.4 for the last few days and the battery life is considerably better! I used to have to charge my phone every evening, now it honestly lasts 2 full days! Don't know how they have managed to do that, but it's awesome.

Been using my phone exactly the same, so it's not like I have stopped phoning less, if anything I may have been using it a bit more than normal over the festive season.

Honestly guys, if you can live without video recording, then give it a bash, you won't be sorry.
