After browsing through most the mods, hacks and updates.....I have know idea which Custom ROM works the best and had a few ideas....
at first i wanted to run these mods....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326655
then I visited the ROM page and felt like all of them were good upgrades from the stock wing...
so heres my question....If i want to get a ROM do they come with the mods in the link above meaning I'm good
I realize the risk of flashing, should I do it on my refurbished (factory) phone?
And which ROM is the sleekest and stable of all of them
thanks for looking

Generally, ROMs appeal differently to different people, so there is no "Best" ROM...
Different ROMs will have different features and functions and so some may include some of those listed in that thread while others may have other tweaks or changes.
I think the best way to find out what you want is to take the plunge and flash a ROM. You'll soon find out what works well for you, although don't get addicted to flashing!
As for this:

Given that it is factory refurbished, it should be fully functional and should therefore be upgradeable with no extra risk.
well, after trying about every version of XDAndroid, I'm pretty desperate!
All the messages from the search are over an year old, and don't really tell anything. Is there any cooked rom that contains android? Or, is there someone who managed to dual-boot wm and android?
The problem I have with my Blackstone and XDAndroid is the cpu-temperature and batterylife. It keeps draining my battery!

Have you tried the android section within the Blackstone forums here?
MOD EDIT - Thread moved to android section

Yeah, been there, done that. But even there, most of the posts are dated 2009! I mean, that's a year ago. And thats a long time if we're talking computerstuff!

I've tried every option there is to use android on my blackstone, but... The XDandroid port is a batterydrain, and that makes it unusable for me at daily use. The source of the batterydrain is that HaReT is the basic app to run XDandroid, and the system uses full cpu and memory, because it can't adapt to the needed usage
My question is: Is there a fully cooked Android rom, so I can install it as a clean ROM. Just because a cooked ROM has the stuff that prevents a battery drain in a certain way

You have no idea what you are talking about...
Anyway there's not a cooked Android rom for blackstone yet.
The battery problem is not related on haret; is almost fixed with camro's last kernel and modules, so i presume next "official" xandroid will have this improvements and no more battery problems, we just need camera working and a couple of other stuff THEN we will begin to think about a cooked rom.
Enjoy

Well, had my camera working and stuff but, the latest kernel doesn't solve the batterydraincould it be that I cooked my own ROM? Because,if so, I'll flash a new one on it
You made a Dutch cooked android rom? Would you upload it?
Je zou me erg blij maken!!!
Camera working ?

Well, it just worked That's all... Didn't do any fancy stuff... The only thing I did was changing the startup.txt with the right screensizes and stuff but, no weird changes...
Somewhere on the forum, there's a list to write your own startup.txt... that's what I did

BTW mitikos, that's why the thread starts with a tag '[Q]'!
And, there are no stupid questions... just stupid answers...
And the part that I know of, is the linux part... Just because I've been using different Linux-distributions on a testing scale
That made the concern about HaReT...
RTFM!

Uhm, eh, oops... but I lost my Micro-SD card:$ I had two different ones... One with tomtom on it... and the one with XDAndroid... And I lost the android one... I'll search my PC for it, or else, I'll write a new one... It was death simple the first time
BTW, had different kernels and versions with the same STARTUP.txt...
So, the kernel ain't the problem

Well, I've noticed that there is a bit confusion about the soft and hard keys...
Also, the WiFi is trouble, but it doesn't work on WinMo either...
But guys, I'm heading out for work! I'll keep on testing, and let you hear all about it...
BTW, a huge problem is the CPU-temperature... Sometimes when I wanna perform a hard reset, I burn my fingers
LMAO, am I glad I read this thread . . . NOT!
phhh

And what about the CPU frequency ? I had the same problem on my Touch Pro and it was because overclock was enabled by default... may be you should just edit your startup.txt to underclock your Qualcomm.
hey guyz finally managed to custom update my nexus with Markdenver's Nexus One Stock 2.3.4 i was now just wondering can you install the htc sense add on separately or do i have to install a ROM with the sense. also if this is possible can you point me in the right direction thanks
Haven't heard of Mark Denver or the term sense "add-on"
But,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995445
Awesome rom, OP page flash instructions and complete/multiple system/data wipes critical
well, mark denver has released a tweaked 2.3.4 and its currently posted on this forom in development section, and i was asking if a external htc sense ui launcher could be installed to a rooted device, because i like the rom but want sense also, thats why i asked if a add on like app existed... ?
Gotcha
Use predominately 3 roms so don't pay close attn to all the roms on that thread
Understand what you are asking now and don't know, sorry
Did you ask the question in Denver's thead, assume so

yh. he hated the idea though, obviously not a sense fan, thats why am trying to find a external add on like app, thanks for your info though, probably gonna have to find a nice skin...
No, you have to flash the whole sense rom.
evilkorn,
well,
that's what I thought--but you never know
didn't think that question would fly well on his thread, but as above you never know till you ask
good luck

If you are new at this, forget about flashing ICS Primo Sense 4.0
It's an alpha version, with many things not working.
Get something more stable like CM9, IceCreamTosti or whatever.

+1 to both giving more information and flashing a much more stable ROM. If you flash NexusHD2 or IceCreamTosti you'll be much happier. ICS without Sense (i.e. the ones I mentioned) are much more stable and faster than that Alpha ROM. There's also Paranoidandroid which will allow you to switch between Tablet UI and Phone UI, it's very interesting.
I just wanted to know if anyone is still working / porting new ROMS for the Note 8.0 any version? Please let me know thanks....
I guess all the popular custom ROMs like CM, PA and the like can be classified as "new". Thus I think that 2yes" could be a correct answer to your question.
Thanks!

Thanks for sharing I was just wondering no problem just didn't want to see this tablet die or get pushed aside that is all.
Anyone ever here of hypedrive? Now that would be a awesome ROM to port to the note 8.0...?
