Have you TRIED more than 5 different ROMS ?

[mxl180]

I know everyone is tired of the BETTER ROM threads. And everyone have preferences. We'll these are my preferences. So with these preferences in mind, suggest me a rom. My last rom was 2.1 from January 2010, I thought I wouldn't need to upgrade again, until I saw CHT.

I'm looking for a ROM with :
-Speedy Sense 2.5 (for the purposes of CHT) maybe one with compress graphics?
-loaded apps, but not at the expense of speed.
-minimal cab installs out the box (for fixes) after upgrade.
-MATURE rom.

So from your PERSONAL experiences, which roms best matches my preferences. I'm hoping you guys can save me hours and hours of try different roms.

If I was you, I would check out VINdows Plutonium. It is a really nice ROM with great speed and it gives a good battery life.

(I have tried like 8 ROMs and now am building my own)

Do you want WinMo 6.5 or 6.5.x?

I have tried MightyRom, EnergyRom, Vins Rom, Mr. X Rom, Big Max Sense. The only one that would limit you to 6.5 is Mr. X's Rom, and MightyRom's 6.5.x rom is good but further development has been cancelled.

My personal preference is MightyRom because it is a clean slate, but for your needs you may want to try Energy. It is compressed, has a lot of apps preinstalled, and is constantly updated. There is also a version of the Rom with CHT preinstalled so that would be another CAB you wouldn't have to run.

Vin is also a good option but i am not a fan of the glass theme and icons it has preinstalled. It does have the SenseMods app though that allows you to quickly switch between different Sense themes such as clocks, sliders, etc.

How is this any different than a best ROM thread? you are still going to have to try them to find out what suites your needs best.

My Vote, in no particular order, MightyROM, Mr. X and Vin.

I have tried a few rom so far and my favorite so far has been Mr. X sense 2.5\win 6.5 rom. Smooth, looks good, and doesnt have much installed. Plainly it has worked the best for me so far.
