In nearly every case, with all the Android phones I've owned, modding them with a custom ROM has made them better. What you mode with will depend on what you want. Lots of ROMs have one version or another of Sense. One of the really good ones is RevolutionHD, which I used for some time. Fast, responsive, great battery life, no chuff.

However, after I while I realized that I want to go back to the minimalist approach, so I returned to Cyanogenmod, without Sense (Sense is pretty, but a major resource hog, IMHO). You could go with the "pure" CM9 nightlies which are rock stable. Or you could look at OpenSensation, which is built on CM9 but has a few tweaks not yet merged into the nightly builds yet. Also rock solid and stable.

Make sure, whichever way you go, to follow the modding instructions for the ROM, since they vary from one dev/builder to another. The Development topic has all the different ROM threads and all the guidance you need.
[HTC Sensation] crimsonedge03:
Definitely yes.

I got a custom ROM because ICS hasn't been released in my location yet, but when I got a custom GB ROM I noticed how much faster and stable it was. And now there's no way I'm ever going back to stock.

I'm using Android Revolution HD 6.6.7 now.
[HTC Sensation] Dark_1:
I flashed already a lot of rom on my LG P500 :D

But a device like that, with a custom rom, become another phone.

The sensation is already a high performance phone (not like the Galaxy S3, but...), that's why I asked, and i've already got the answers :D

BTW, I don't want to try all the rom on earth :) CM9 is cool, i like the style of the lockscreen. Anoter rom with sense 4.0?
[HTC Sensation] Dark_1:
Thanks! I'll try one of these..
[HTC Sensation] Euler MD:
It will be a lot faster, the battery life will increase, more responsive and I like the GUI for stock ICS better than sense. Also, you will have better drivers (hopefully) so it's performance in games will increase.
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Do it if you're confident enough to to reap the benefits mentioned above.

If you're not confident then leave it.
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
YES! You will LOVE it! It's so wonderful to have so Many choices of different Roms! I love trying new ones out but I seem to always come back to my favorite ! Try out the Roms and find your favorite! It is so much more stable then stock. You will be surprised! No force closes, or shutdowns like with stock! It's also very addicting , you will be like, what do I want to try today! Rooting is truely freeing yourself. You will finally have the ability to make your device your own! It's awesome! If there is something you don't like, you just change it! I can honestly say, I don't regret rooting for a second! You will LOVE it! Best of luck.
[HTC Sensation] Dark_1:
I'll do it tonight! I read something but I have to find a guide to S-OFF for ICS. I saw a method with a manual trick with a copper wire but i don't know if it reliable!
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
Just that way is reliable, and if you're on ICS it's the only way to get S-OFF.
[HTC Sensation] tessut:
Juponutbear ?
[HTC Sensation] Dark_1:
Yes!

I know it works, but i hope i won't fry my phone :D
[HTC Sensation] Rusty!:
You'll only fry your phone if the bit of wire you're using is connected to the mains ;)
[HTC Sensation] crimsonedge03:
Don't use the copper wire trick. Use thishttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1661631.

Hey.

S Off for Hboot 1.2x is tedious, but not difficult.

However, to make things a little easy, here is the tool that I made: http://tinyurl.com/KGSTool

It's pretty simple to use, look it up.
[HTC Sensation] Dark_1:
Thanks for all the tips, I've already done it with the wire trick!

Now i have install a recovery (4EXTRecovery is the best, right?), obtain root and superCID, right? In this order?

I need to get back to sense launcher to edit the lock screen shortcuts, but I can't find it.

I've looked in Apps, I've removed the defaults from my current launcher, but I just can't get it back.

What happened?

[HTC One X] TylerDurdenK:
I'm on Nova Launcher, and have Android Revolution HD 6.1.1 installed.

well if the rosie launcher is install

u can download home launcher from play store an choose it from that app
[HTC One X] TylerDurdenK:
I've had a search for "Home Launcher" on the play store but can't find it. Can you provide a link?

[Droid 2 Global General] theadamtron:
Hey Guys, I'm interested in getting one of those R2D2 DROID 2 phones and I wish to use it on the optus network in Australia.

I believe optus uses a dual band 900/1900mhz ?

Some questions I have are too people that have tried this already.

Will the 3G data work on this phone?

How difficult and what modding needs to be done on this phone to get it too work?

Thanks for the help peeps : )
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
Let me get this straight.

You're asking whether you can use DROID2 R2D2 (a CDMA-only device that supports CDMA2000 and 3G CDMA 1x EV-DO Rev.A) on Optus's GSM network operating on 900/1800MHz bands with 3G UMTS/HSPA?

So, you want to use a pure CDMA device with no GSM support whatsoever on a GSM network, right?
[Droid 2 Global General] theadamtron:
Hardware wise this is almost identical to the milestone 2 right? I've heard that in other countries with the Verizon phone roaming is enabled so it would work with other networks? Excuse the noob question. How is cdma different to GSM?
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
CDMA is one standard. GSM is another. There is almost nothing similar between these. Here's a question: how do you fit a GSM SIM card into a DROID2 R2D2? It has no SIM card slot.

Verizon CDMA devices can roam on CDMA networks.

Verizon Global phones can use GSM networks, because they have a GSM+CDMA transceiver in them.

The DROID2 (and the R2D2 variant) isn't a Global device.

The DROID2 GLOBAL is.

Please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDMA2000 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM so that you can stop asking these… weird questions.
[Droid 2 Global General] theadamtron:
How is it a weird question?

Some have modded/flashed the DROID 4 which is CDMA phone to work on GSM.

I am merely asking if its possible or if anyone's tried it.
[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
DROID4 is a Global device. It has a CDMA+GSM+LTE transceiver.

DROID2 doesn't.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zouz0una:
I'm having some issues lately and I really need your help...

I don't know if it is relevant but i use resurrection rom with cf root 5.3

My s2 started to act weird 2 days ago when a yellow triangle showed up as i was charging it... I looked it up and as it seemed that I had to update my kernel.. I was using cf root 3.5 so it makes sense. I tried to update through cwm(flash kernel) but failed.. so i flashed it through odin... But then the problem got bigger as i couldn't open cwm or triangle away and the bigger problem couldn't connect via wifi... At first I thought (for the first 2) that my phone had become unrooted somehow (have no idea how) but SuperSU was accessible.. rom manager too... so i guess that was not the problem. And why can't connect via wifi??? It shows my rooter normally tries to connect but doesn't shows any message as fail to connect or something like that.. it just tries with no response...

I have no idea what to do.. I hope I don't have to format again...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zouz0una:
Seriously... Noone??????
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Wifi is kernel-related.

So, try to flash the correct CF-Root kernel again to your phone.

Maybe you tried to flash a wrong version of the kernel, or Kies was still running on your PC while flashing?!

Just try again to flash CF-Root kernel to your phone.

If it works, boot normal. Then shut down the phone.

Reboot into recovery mode (press Volume UP + Home + Power buttons as long as recovery menu appears), then select wipe cache and in Advanced > wipe Dalvik cache.

Then reboot the phone again.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zouz0una:
I've already flashed the kennel and there was no improvement.. Somehow it doesn't recognize the kernel as it's the right one.. Unfortunately had to flash a new ROM.. But thanks for the information!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aximmaxim:
So, I'm a bit confused with the plethora of options built into this phone. In order to set up Google Play, I had to enter a gmail account. That partially populated email on the phone. But there's also a separate GMAIL program. I can't remember which was necessary before contacts and calendar stuff started to appear.

Am I better off sticking with the phone's email program for gmail, or using the Gmail program from within the google apps folder? What are the plusses/minuses?

Also, is it possible to import contact photos from twitter for name matches or by linking profile to contact name?

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kujila:
GMail app is better for GMail as it allows specific GMail features like the stars, etc

Maybe the e-mail app supports that, but I am only using the E-Mail app for exchange

I would say go for the GMail app!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] djscissorhands:

All benchmarks I run show no improvement under .28. Quadrant is much worse as I got 4900 on .21 and the highest I can get now is a 3700...and that's while overclocked to 1.6ghz. Not sure what has changed to cause this but WOW that's a big shift!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
Yeah, this is another failed update to TF201. At first I thought it was performing better, but I think that was the 'update placebo'. I'm noticing more lag and benchmarks are doing worse as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] butus73:
No improvement?

I've got Over 5100 in Quadrant. Rooted, overclocked to 1600Mhz.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mdemons12:
I have got around 4200 in quadrant, that sits just above where the average tf201 sits. But what has to be done to achieve what the One X gets. I know the I/o and storage may change but the CPU and graphics should be about the same right, its basically the same Tegra 3 isn't it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fazerrider:
With .21 and previous firmware versions I got 11.600 as max score for Antutu. Overclocked to 1.6 ghz and CFG as governor (ATP tweak).

With .28 I score 12500 points. Surely a significant improvement!

p.s.: I have better scores with cfg over noop.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nitram_tpr:
I've just benchmarked my Prime on .28 and got 13201 on Antutu and 5182 with quadrant.

I have an issue with the camera at the moment so ASUS asked me to do a hard reset.

These numbers are on a clean install, newly rooted and overclocked to 1.6 :cool:

Click the screenies for full size versions :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cyiam40:
So, after seeing other results, I examined my Prime to find out why my Quadrant score was so low. I found that I recently upgraded to Quadrant Advanced and got a score of 3700. I reinstalled Quadrant Standard and achieved a 5100 also, which is better than the previous score of 4900 with .21. :>)
