Root What is the best rom for me?

Nice now my sense keeps force closing every so often. Ive leaned I cant have all the features i want on a stable rom.

I'm using Sense-able and no force closes yet. When I flashed it the first time I forgot to wipe the data/factory and it forced closed so much I couldn't even use the phone but I did a nandroid backup before and restored then tried again this time wiping the proper thing and no force close after that.
 
Like it or not, HTC knows what they're doing... Hence why the Eris-based ROMs are considered the most stable too.

Would I like the coolest ROM I could get ? Sure, but on (1) condition: My phone has to be ... usable.

I would think they're stable because the Kernal code is optimized for Eris already...no?

Usable was not a word I would have described my phone as before root.

Lag, slow dialer, dropped calls, silent bugs, etc Most of the time I needed it to work it didn't and that was just not good. Wanted to throw it into the sea while driving across the bridge.

New phone seems to be better. Maybe it was the handset. Root is better for sure.
 
beside the fact that most Eris roms have an issue with MMS, I'd say the devs working on these roms are awesome.

White Widow so far is my favorite, OC'd JIT and pure vanilla goodness
did I mention the N1 boot screen*love it*

I know that some ROMs, the soft keys don't light up, is this for all, or only some, also what ROMS has basically no problems?

I have been running Ivan's since I rooted yesterday and it seems to run great for me. And, though I simply never use it, I just tested an MMS message and it sent just fine.

"Most" ? Not true... Don't say things like that and mislead others.

I'm on my 4th ROM with mms issues
and over at xda it seems that its a common problem, so misleading? i think not

and if you don't believe me, straight from xda:

Just depends on the rom...alot of the sprint based roms can be sorted with the apn work around, some devs are including their own fixes I would suggest checking the first post of the rom you are using or simply reading through the threads "when in doubt search it out". The mms issue is well known and I'm sure when there is a true fix it will make "front page" news.

the only ROM without soft keys for me was Evil Eris. I like the rom however but i like the soft keys.
Aloysius FTW for me
zenexp was nice
sense-able was awesome
Ic3 2.7 is the one with the mms fix seperate flash, great rom as well!

Aloysius is a great rom, but no one was getting my MMS
ZenExp is the one I'm currently enjoying, no big issues
Ic3 2.7 i also had a few mms issues, but a very stable rom

Its really all up to what OP wants in a rom. All can be overclocked, JIT + Sense-based is a no go, and some have beta releases that may have some problems. I'm still waiting on that Pure N1 vanilla feel with JIT

List the ROMs you're using and I think you'll find a common theme amongst them. I've used (3) ROMs so far and two of the three work fine with MMS. Out of the box, too, no "fix" needed after initial install.
 
WhiteWidow 3.1 - MMS issues
ErisLIghteningBolt - MMS issue
Irc3 - don't remeber
ZenEXP - none
Aloysius 2.0 - none anymore

WhiteWidow is pretty new... Not sure about Lighning bolt...

I tend stick with roms that have been out for a while. That way I'm sure all the bugs have been worked out.
 
white widow is amazing, but its under a lot of heat right now. Can't wait for 4.0, its vanilla. JIT and smooth. I had 3.1 OC'd at 768 and it was just awesome

Yes... it is:D. Interesting stuff...

I was actually thinking of trying it.. but i like to wait until the bugs are worked out.
I got tired of flashing a rom and the next day the dev releasing an update that requires flash.... Wife is about to throw my eris out the window:eek:

Perhaps the name of the ROM is foreshadowing events to come? :eek:
