I'm not sure. I'm on stock hboot. My phone boots,I put in my sim pin and it just reboots. I'm sticking with oxygen for now.
Will be giving Runny a go today - I haven't flashed anything on to my HTC in about 5 months, using a very old Oxygen ROM - so looking forward to getting something new. Are there any other ROMs that are well worth giving a go? What's the best ICS ROM for the Desire?
Cheers for that suggestion, I went for MIUI_AU but I kept getting corruption errors when installing, but then I went for Mildwild which is looking fantastic. Will be having a play - going to give my phone a real good clean as it's looking a bit manky nowadays.

Installed my first Desire ROM today after purchasing a new 32gb card, given it a new lease of life and surprisingly straightforward to do! 4ext Touch Recovery is brilliant. Tempted to try some other ROMs now but I do like Runnymede.
What speed did you get if its a fast one d2ext works great on Runnymede, ive had nothing but bother with the latest 3.5 roms and mms not working, cant figure it out as all the settings appear to be correct

Only class 4, same as the card it replaced.
I just bought a class 10 card. My old one was class 4. I've noticed it's much speedier on Runnymede. Lots of other roms I tried were quite slow before I upgraded.
Should've bought a faster card.
The MildWild rom isn't ICS,it's just got an ICS theme.
There are a couple of other ICS beta's on the xda forums that work fine.
Fine'ish
none are completely working at the moment, im on K900's AKOP version whilst its pretty good there is no camcorder, or panoramic, the other ics that are fully hwa currently have no camera preview which makes them as much use as a chocolate fireguard to me 
And still get FC on every ics rom i try occasionally but its good that people still care and take the time to develop the desire I may just end up keeping mine
Yep - I wasn't set on ICS, I just wondered how far they had come since the last time I had even thought about a ROM. Considering my lack of being able to get the MIUI_AU up and running the install might be a little bit different.
I also thought that ICS might be a bit heavy for the Desire anyway, really liking the theme though and as it's based on Oxygen (I think) it's very snappy.

I used ROM manager this morning to install a new ROM. Went for the Cyanogen Mod 7.1.1 or whatever was the latest one.
It doesn't have Market app on there, I don't like the ROM and it won't let me update to a different ROM in ROM Manager because it needs to update ROM Manager.
Mehhhh !!

I've restored my backup I did before the new rom went on. Looking good so far.
I assume you just flash it like a normal ROM, as in applying the zip in recovery.
Yep. Make a backup before just in case it goes wrong but I flashed it with no problems.
