My gf has a hero rooted etc but its insanely slow! I'm not sure if it hardware or software related so I thought I'd whack a new rom on it and clock it to see if that helps although its been dropped alot

What's the best rom / setup people recommend?

Is there a way to test for hardware faults?
Thanks

What's gb? She just wants something that works properly at a decent speed
ATM loads of things are going wrong and battery disappears when the phones screen is off etc

There is no MiUi for the Hero. As mentioned above i recommend the decked rom if you want gb.

Probably Vanilla Eclair or Decked if you want no sense.

Or Heroine if you want sense. Take your pic

Hey Thank's for your input.
Because i like and want sense ui, i've flashed heroine++ ... yes it's fast, but i missed some features from gb roms so i flashed WildHerocV5 and added the V6supercharge script.. and it feels almost the same as heroine speed almost!

It would be nice if there is some GB2.3.7 (CM7.1) rom with sense! I previously have flashed Decked_X, and tried to apply some themes and stuff to get the sense look and i had no luck.

I added a deodexed build a few days back that will help fix theme issues since odexed doesn't let u theme .....

at some point all the roms I tried becomes slower or more sluggish, maybe because of the other reasons, just try to use and keep apps you really need, know whats running in your background and get a phone with 1ghz or more processor to handle picture and web browsers fluently..(kidding) thats a reality, you can tweak, get some light roms, but then you'll loose a lot functions, then you will have to install aditional apps you don't like... then a phone because of those apps becomes sluggy again and even buggy... need to look for updated comfortable rom and go with the idea that hero is a bit of a granny. Try Lewa OS RC2 port for GSM hero.

Been using for more than 24 hours and so far only positive opinion.
fast, stable and has comfortable user interface.

Looks indeed quiet nice, smooth transitions etc.
But it is only in english, not suitable for everyone.
