My girlfriend's Incredible is still running 2.2, rooted, and has mms issues (as in they don't work). I'm looking for a good stable ROM, sense based, and fast. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks
Slick

Redemption is a good one. Looks like stock with just a few changes to make it more appealing.

Are you looking to upgrade to 2.3 or stick with 2.2?

If you want to stick with 2.2, my vote is for SkyRaider 4.3 on the Team Bamf site. It is my all-time favorite. I don't use it anymore simply because it is still 2.2.

I've got no advice on sense 2.3, as I use AOSP now.

I gotta have me some notification toggles (which SkyRaider has)....

Skyraider is an excellently built ROM and is extremely stable.
First rom I ever used

Thanks for the suggestions guys, much appreciated. Weekend project time now! I don't know which one I'm going with yet, but I might just flash a 2.2 rom one day and a 2.3 the next and see which one she likes more.

I know this is kind of a late response but, I'd suggest checking out Gingerbread-Inc-Deck. It is very stable and very smooth. Or, there's Bugless Beast. It is fairly stable but really fast! More of a stock ROM...

Never too late, thanks! I'm really not up to speed on sense based roms as I've been a CM convert since my original droid, so any advice is awesome.

i just installed the stock+ rom... so far so good.

i like the stock phone but wanted to fix things like ext4 to fix the low memory issues which lead me to needing non-stock kernel. stock+ rom / kernel got installed this morning and so far so good!

Did you try the messaging icon under all apps? Sometimes I have to remove the messaging icon on the main screen and drag the all-apps one back to the front screen. Then all is fine again...not sure why???

I've personally tried a few Sense 3.5 ROMs and the upgrades to the interface are really slick. I'd definitely recommend giving a couple of them a shot.

Try Nils Business Gingersense 3.5 or Prime XL 3D to get a feel for it.

Cyanogenmod 7 with the new Incredikernel is my favorite, if she do without the 720p recording give that a try.

That's my personal setup, along with ext4 / unlimited data mod, and I love it. My girlfriend really likes sense though, so we'll see what happens. Flashing for hers got delayed as the ext4 mod called my name.
