MIUI isnt that fast these days..

Try SGBS rom (v1.7) have sense and is very fast and stable.

Better wait for the official 2.3. I am using Cyanogenmod 7.0.3 Stable, but there is issue with call delay and mobile data connection problem. Now I am waiting for 2.3 official

I am running Insertcoin from around last 2 months and frankly speaking i never had any issues with the ROM. U can give it a try. U can get the rom from my signature.
Note: I never use HD recording or Playback on mobile, so i have never tested these functionality.

Yes, InsertCoin stable 1.0.8 seems to be bug free.
I used it also since about 2 months.

RCMix S v. 2.0.1 snm.

Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113070&highlight=Recent+Apps easy to install.

For me AcesMod007 v24
Tried all roms but this one stands to be most stable and fast...
Leedroid is good too but battery hog.
Insertcoin is not bad but slow compared to acemod007.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

From my personal experience I can highly recommend oxygen. It's a very clean and stable rom and I get a great battery life. Before using oxygen I tried leedroid, rcmix s, miui and redux. They are all nice and fast, but I really like the cleanness of oxygen and redux. I would have stayed with redux, but the developer did not have any time for further development for nearly two months, so I changed to oxygen. But I cannot see a big difference between redux and oxygen.

Ive tried loads, but an issue that kept recurring was depletion of internal memory. Therefore for the desire in my opinion the best roms are ones that allow data2ext or data2we which tricks your phone into thinking it has the internal memory limit you choose. I like gingerburst, a sense Rom since the whole thing is easy to set up and is stable. Just Google it and follow the instructions on the site
Cyanogen 7.0.3 works with the data2we. zip. If you don't like HTC sense, and is my close second Fave Rom

Stable Gingbread Sense ROM

Hi,
Can anyone point out to me a Gingerbread ROM with the latest HTC Sense not (3.0 obv) that is bug-free or more so Stable enough to use and is not modified to an extent that it wouldn't be considered as Stock.
I've looked through the Development section and found ROMS that meets some of my criteria but the common this is a 'Camera/Camcorder bug of some-sort.
Thank you!
Rcmix s rom v0.8.. im using the cm7 version so te cm7 tables need to be flashed.
then a fat32 and an ext3 partion on your scard.
also use a2sgui from the market to move dalvic to your ext partition to free up more internal memory if you have alot of appa
been using it for a week or so without any problems, although the video camera doesnt work.
But its better and faster than those based on the leaked desire gingerbread rom, an has the better sense version.
Well i tried both RcmixS and InsercoinS and Cool S ...based on AceS rom,and they're slow as hell >_> Stable,but slow,not worth it (yet...i have hopes for the future).As for the Roms based on the leaked Desire Asia WWE rom,they're all stable,but still have some bugs and speed issues...my opinion,wait a bit more until the Official Europe WWE rom comes out,and some1 makes a good rom out of that
I wonder if the final gingerbread rom from HTC will be 2.3.4 instead of 2.3.3..

Doubt it, we don't even have a front camera.
I am thinking more the bugfixes for the '3 second delay' stuff that 'may' be included in 2.3.4
is it worth the effort to keep sense?
i left the stock rom a few months ago and tried out cm, then gingervilain and now use oxygen/devnull
i quickly decided the massive speed increase and extra memory was worth not having sense.
I have the same problem. A Gingerbread ROM based on the new Sense with the video recording working...
I'm using insertcoin Rom and i'm happy with this. I tried couple of other roms, but this one is really fast and this one have many quick updates. IC' s developer is very hard working man ;-)
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
I'm currently using InsertCoin A2SD CM7 HBOOT/A2SD+ STOCK HBOOT v15, and I'm very happy with it. Using it from v02.
InsertCoin is the best rom 2.3.3 with sense currently. You should take the A2SD+ because you'll don't have to change the HBOOT.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
I've tried just about every GB sense ROM besides the Desire HD versions and they all have bugs but they are stable and ok for everyday use. The best GB ROMS are the AOSP ones, CM7, GingerVillain and Oxygen if you want a complete GB experience.
I favour AuraxTSense as my ROM of choice as it meets my needs and there is a GB version out but with bugs. I'm going to wait till all the bugs are fixed then make my move, as right now 2.2 ROMS are flawless.
Sent from my AuraxTSense Desire
its likely to be only a month or two before the dev's can be working on an official gingerbread release anyway.
i cant wait to see what they will do but i expect it to be a lot better than HTC manage
RCMix S went v1.0 today. It's really stable and fast as far as I know. I'm on the v09 at the moment.

Same with me.
Tried leedroid, oxygen, cm6, cm7, various HD ports and settled down to miui.us 1.7.22.

I love sense and I will go back to it at some point, waiting on Droidzone to update his gingerburst RoM. But at the moment am using MIUI data2ext and its bloody great, love everything about it, at first it looks abit iphoney but you can download alot of themes and change the look.
So try MIUI
No Sense no HTC. If you want no sense buy SG2
And BTW LeeDroid rox
Cool AceS Mix v2,very fast
but no chinese touch input
Beso your hardcore mate, if i can get a sgs2 for £150 of ebay i would mate, but to be honest i hate samsung stuff so it'd be an opx2 for me mate
actually i have tried the 2 hd senses, they feel very laggy to me, is the normal senses a bit faster, i might give them a go, just to spice things up, but even tho i hate apple stuff, i love the miui rom, so classy, i might find a sense rom for backup for when i have an urge for it
The only thing why I would consider miui is auto brightness which works fcuking awesome with it. Otherwise, I'm sticking to my Sense integration wrapped in my LauncherPro theme
im downloading leedroid 3.0.8.2, not the hd one, i'll give it a try, what would you say is the best sense rom? non hd? iv come from having a wildfire,blade and pulse, one thing i will say is that the dev community for the desire is amazing, so many devs, roms, kernels, the works, we are very lucky to be spoilt and have so much to choose from.

the first rom i installed was gingervillain 2.0
ive tried several roms, coming and going between them, they all had advantages/disadvantages. but i always keep ending up installing gingervillain. its does everything i need, its quick, it's sense-less (personally dont like it) and as yet, i dont think ive encountered a bug with it.
now running gingervillain 2.7
Redux 1.2, awesomely fast! original android 2.3 without sense or any other big additions. Clean and stable! no bugs so far!

All sense ROMs are a little bit laggy as they kinda bog down the OS.. if you want a very fast and stable ROM, try an aosp ROM like CyanogenMod7.. its awesome! I've heard Oxygen is also very good, its what I'll be trying next

[Q] Recommend a ROM, please

A work colleague is handing her Wildfire over to me on Sunday to root and install a ROM for her.
She's sick to death of the slow performance, locking up, and general sh*ttiness of the standard ROM. She says it's so bad she can barely even use the thing as a phone, since it just freezes when she gets a call!
So I said to her I would solve all her probs by installing vanilla(ish) ROM. I hope I've not made a promise I can't keep :-D
Anyway, of course I automatically thought CMod, but does anyone else have an opinion or suggestion for a ROM?
The overriding factor is stability since I don't want her coming back to me with problems, and then after that speed/performance.
Finally, is there any replacement for the HTC Dialler that allows automatic contact-finding when you type on a T9-like keyboard and actually looks decent these days? I gave up looking months ago, since all I could find were crappy-looking ones. I do miss the HTC Dialler sorely myself, and I'm sure she will if I can;t find a good replacement.
I recomend RuymancaMod hell fire v7.2 based on cm7 but very stable,usin it for a month or so no probs at all,about dialer dont know

New rom suggestion after insert coin 1.1.4

Hi,
After an about half year with insert coin 1.1.4 by Baadnewz I'm looking for a replacement mostly because I want to renew.
I know that many roms are great but wanted to hear suggestions from users that tried few and especially if someone already did the change from the insert coin rom.
I don't want to loose sense so only roms with it are acceptable for now by me.
The phone has stock h-boot 0.93 cwm and S-off.
Need calls recording kernel with it and ad hoc function working like I have now.
Thank you for helping

Hi. I changed from insertcoin rom because baadnewz no longer develops it. The first rom I've installed after insertcoin was Runnymede by Sebastiaan15. It's a great rom, but I changed it again when Seb announced he will not develop the rom for a time. I installed then RunnyRom and I can tell you that it's a good rom, with sense 3.5 , fast and smooth. Now i'm running runnymede again (because of the INT2SD feature), but you can try both of them. good luck
i suggest you Mild wild 3.7v
is best ROM for daily usage

If you want to install runnymede with int2sd-s make sure your card is at least class 4. For me, with a class 2 one, the rom has a considerable lag. Now I want to buy a class 6 (or 10) one for a better performance.
I also had Insert Coin untill yesterday. Switched to Mildwild. Not sure if this stays on for long... But i'm not sure which other rom I should try.
Miss pndedin
Switched from RunnyMede AIO to SuperNova 2.4.0.1! I now have (almost) infinite storage (thanks to data2sd) and the batterylife is outstanding! It's the perfect rom for everyday use
Runnymede AIO 6.0.4.3 with Droidzone #18 kernel. Very stable
I have Mildwild 3.8
im not too fond of the rom because of small aesthetic flaws but it seems to be working fairly well.
CM7 rocked a lot but since it didnt get updated anymore i switched to mw 3.7 and later to 3.8 cause its based on cm7
so far it works well,
if u want a small fluent rom there is dGB
if u want a sense rom and dont mind having to partition ur sd and stuff there is runnymede as ppl said before me
Try MIUI for change! its theme engine is great, pretty stable too, using it for nearly an year now. Download at miuiandroid.com.
Lol, thread is like a bunch of kids all screaming out who their favorite sports hero is!!
Mate, just look at which are the popular threads in the Dev section, pick two or three ROMs that seem to have the features you want and try each of them for a few days.
There is only one person that can tell you which is the "best ROM" for you, and that is yourself...

Looking for the best rom to install on my Desire

Hi looking to for the best rom to install on my HTC Desireit has not been rooted using stock rom at the moment also would be most greatful if someone could explain how to do this thanks.

Try Bortak's guide, it's the first thread in Q&A section.
Sent from my HTC Desire using flashes and thunders
And which ROM is the best for you depends on what you like in a ROM.
There are differences in speed, customizability, features and of course the design.
So if you state what you like in a ROM it's easier for us to give an advise.
First of all you should decide if you want a stable rom or the newest but not so stable one.
For beginners I would recommend Cyanogen Mod, thats a nice stable Ginger Bread Rom and you get a good support there.
But if you want to try Ice Cream Sandwich, I suggest you try Sandvolds Rom. I am using that by myself and its great...
Regards
You could also try one of the MildWild-releases. They are both pretty good. I'm using the version based on Oxygen and it works great, very stable and very fast.
I've used MildWild but didnt like it.
Using Cyanogenmod now and i'm really happy with the performance of the rom.
+1 for Cyanogenmod... its flawless and very flexible! go for CM 7.2+INT2SD, it gives 1GB internal memory (find it here)
Below are other options:

If you havn't looked at this thread yet, now is the time.
Its a list of all the Roms for Desire, sorted by android version/ Sense version.
There is no "best rom" but like the others have said, you can't go wrong with CM.
Currently using Mokee OS, which is based on CM but with a whole new interface.
