Im still on Ivan's Official...am I using an outdated ROM? - Droid Eris Android Development

All I really want is the fastest, most stable ROM available. Are there better options? It needs to be able to tether, too; I'm using PdaNet right now and it's working flawlessly.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, opinions and advice.

You're using as up-to-date software as thousands and thousands of non-rooted Eris owners. The *core* of the OS, Android 2.1, is current. Sure, you can get Android 2.2 on your phone but it's not really ready for prime-time yet.

Ya, just flash Zanfurs OC kernel if you want to have more accurate settings and you should be good. And by the way, PDAnet lets you tether with any rom, as far as actually tethering without pdanet then the ivan rom should do the trick though I never tried it myself.

I use this configuration EXACTLY.
I also use wifi tethering a lot around the house for my gf's laptop.
I have gone to EVERY popular ROM out there for at least a couple of days. I keep going back to SenseUI if a ROM doesn't have it, and I keep coming back to Ivan's when I get to SenseUI. EvilEris was the second longest ROM I ever had, almost a month. Was finished with Sense crashing, and the De-Odex'd stuff (no room in the /data/ area, phone kept running out of memory, and no I don't like A2SD).
Ivan's and PDANet ftw.

You can try tnoobs it is a stock ROM, a revamp of plainjane. It has the perks and is quick.

- +1 - Tried them all, including the Froyo scene - very buggy! Ivan's is the standard of reliability and reasonable speed. I use PdaNet and Wireless. The only other ROMs that seems to be as stable and add an effective Apps2SD is Fresh 3.0 and XTR-Sense 3.03.

best rom for MT3G 32b?

what is the best rom for the MT3G right now.
I tried cyanogen 3.9.11.2 and seems like it has intermitant problems unlocking the screen were it will blink horizontal lines and then after a few times then unlock fine. Seems to happen more with the device when it is warm
I have also tried both v1.3 jacxrom builds and the full v3 hero and works fine when first booted but when I lock the screen and unlock it looks like the screen is overlayed with another copy of itself but a little to the right. Almost taking one verticle line of pixels and switching it wiht the row next to it in pairs al the way across the screen. Any ideas on which one I should be running.

Do you have all the tmobile apps that came with the mytouch (myfaves etc...)
Im still trying to decide whether or not to root. I have rooted "jailbroken" my iphone. Is rooting give you the same benefit as jailbraking? I mainly used the jailbreak for denied apps from the app store, themes, and tethering. Tethering is not so important (unless I'm traveling haha)

Same idea and then some. Cyan does not include myFaves in his builds but it can be added. Check the G1 forum where he posts his ROMS. I saw a post about it the other day but can't remember where. Search. When in doubt, ROOOOOOT!!! No other way to use Android IMO.

So the myfaves app that came with my mytouch ("Magic" I like that name so much better btw mytouch sounds so girly) can't be pushed to me by tmobile. I happened to me once where it completely disappeared from my phone and cs refreshed my myfaves and i got it within 5 min. I guess its not a big deal if I can download it. How about the other apps like youtube, android market; will they work as they would on a non rooted mytouch?
The main thing stopping me from rooting is that I can't return it to the original factory state like I could for my iphone. Not sure how stuff works on android (im still a noob with this OS) but on the iphone it wasn't a big deal to jailbreak as it just modifies just a small part of the OS to allow non apple approved apps/themes etc... but with this its like it flashes a whole different OS. How about all the new updates like donut etc...that we will get ota. I guess the devs here will include all those features in their new ROMs (as they are doing now) so that is not such a big deal.
Thanks for the quick answer btw.

Sorry for not answering your response as quickly as the first answer. I can't speak for the iPhone but the G1/myTouch (I have both) are a MUST root IMO. I think having total control over the phone and OS is so important. As far as Market, YouTube, etc. they all work. Every app works, as far as I am concerned and I have 225 apps (all paid for if they weren't free) installed. As far as updates are concerned, the devs here are months ahead of Google and TMO. Cyanogen (best ROMs here, IMO, if you aren't into Hero and things like that) already has some Donut stuff in his stable 4.0.1 ROM and adds quite a bit of cool features in his experimental ROMs. You can also add bits from other devs if Cyan doesn't include something you like. Cyan does not include myFaves (I forget why) but it can be added after. Just search around for that. Even without the app on your phone, you can always update them online and still make free calls to your faves. It just won't show on the phone, that is unless you have the "after market" app installed. Hope this helps. And like I said, root is absolutely the way to go. Nothing frightening. In fact, I feel more comfortable with tools like Nandroid built-in so I can always restore my phone if/when I mess something up or install and unstable ROM/theme. I flash almost daily for that reason.

wow dude you have been a lot of help, I feel a lot more about rooting now (wow you flash almost everyday haha awesome). I think I'm gonna try it tonight haha.
So I wont need to restore to the original shipped state if I ever need to do a warranty claim?
oh yeah so should I flash cyanogen 3.9.X.X or 4.0.1 ( I know 3.9.X.X has some donunt features but its experimental...but is it better?)

So it looks like sense ui from the hero? I heard all those roms are slow due to the ram limitation on the mytouch (192mb) vs the hero (288mb)

I am a noob, but if you use search option you will find out that JacHero needs latest Radio and SPL which is 2005. One click method doesnt change it. I still have 2006, "perfect".
you can always use the old method just follow the instructions step by step don't feel discourage ... but you must and i repeat follow each step ... one... by ..one

Most Stable ROM

Well I recently sold a mytouch 3g to my gf's friend that I rooted in the past (was a friend's phone who I bought from because he needed money) and it currently has CM 5.0.8 installed. She told me today that it has been running really slow lately no matter how many times she reboots and such. I told her I would look into possibly installing a different CFW for her that was more stable. Problem is, there are a ton of options to choose from and I have been out of the G1/MyTouch scene for a while.
Basically, she wants the phone to be stable and pretty quick. She doesn't need a lot of features or stuff that still has bugs to be worked out. I let her know I could unroot it and put 1.6 on there if we couldn't figure something out and she wouldn't be against that. Can anybody recommend a ROM that is very stable and quick besides the stock firmware? Doesn't matter if it's a 1.6, 2.0, etc. version.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Super D 1.11 is a fast/stable as you could go.... CM6 is amazingly fast but it's still in release candidate mode and an android novice might not be able to handle the flaws (if you can find some) in it. CM6 could beat it if it continues in the path in going in...

Yeah, CM was always the way to go for stability when I had my G1 a while back. That's why I threw 5.0.8 on the phone before giving it to her, but she said it's been really slow lately. I don't want to borrow the phone from her or anything to troubleshoot, that's why I'd rather find a known stable ROM and just flash that on there and be good.
I'll download that one and give it a try on her phone, thanks!
I noticed that the SuperD ROM says to have the sd card partitioned, is that a requirement for the ROM or no? Currently the card is not partitioned and if I could avoid doing that, that would be great. I'm going to be doing the flash at work and don't have a way to back up what's on the card already to partition it.
No it's not needed but if you plan on having things like Apps2SD or swap then yes.
Yeah I don't think she needs anything like that. Thanks for the help!
This is a good thread. I just rooted my friends g1 and put CM6 on there. I have been checking to see what the most stable Roms are..
I remember I would eventually start having issues with whatever ROM, so I would go back to a totally stock + rooted 1.6. If my friends doesn't like his CM6 I am going to put stock 1.6 with root access. Add wifi tether and add overclock/ setCPU. For functionality, that is a great way to go if you don't mind the old school look.

If you're going with SuperD (as you should IMHO), I'd use 1.9.3 or 1.7/1.8. The last two had some issues with installing apps - 1.11 in particular would occasionally FC newly installed apps until you ran fix_permissions. Not a deal-breaker, since it seemed stable otherwise but just a pain.

[Q] the fastest custom rom

I never tried any custom Rom yet because I don't want to loss data everytime I flash new Rom. anyway, since there is a lot of custom rom available, I m planning to use 1. so I m asking those who already tried it, can u please tell me which one is the fastest? is it faster than 2.1?
The fastest I believe is openfire, at least I think so.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
I want to use openfire too. but I got scared since it has warning that it may cause explosion
It won't cause your phone to explode. Just keep the OC under 700.
I thought my phone will turn into time bomb if I flash it with openfire. downloading+flashing in progress
I currently Use my stock ROM from my carrier, only reason being that I like things to be 100%, its the obsessive compulsive in me.
With that being said, I have done EXTENSIVE tests on;
-OpenFire v1.8 , 2.0 and 2.1
-WildPuzzle 8.0.8, 8.0.10, 8.0.11 BETA, 8.0.11
Within each one, I have Linpack tested at each stage of installing OC Kernels and Various Speed settings witihin the SetCPU app. I have found that with normal things running (NO task killers) BOTH are fairly even, with AVERAGE figures of 2.4 - 3.2 MFLOPS. If you set each rom up for speed (disable animations, WiFi, GPS etc etc) I have found OpenFire to be far superior in the speed department.
Granted this is PURELY BASED ON MY SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE.....
The best advice, play around, hack, crack and generally mess around till you find a ROM that works FOR YOU
-Josh
Openfire is fatest atm with linpacks of around 5mflops, wildpuzzle is slower because it does not YET have jit enabled.

Yep, you should try OpenFire, is the best if you want speed.
Why worry about losing data? Just nand backup. Also you can back up sms thru an app on the market, and backup contacts to SD thru sense (at least, the version of sense on Evo let's you). I don't really see what there is to lose.

Leedroid vs RCMixHD

Hi guys,
I have had my HD for a while now, and have been going back and forth with different roms and what not.
I settled for a Leeddroid HD Gingerbread Beta 4 rom (which works well).
And then I tried the RCmixHD rom (the most complete one as it says)
But I have a problem... when I use the RCmixHD rom, I keep losing signal...
why is that? any clues?
I strongly believe you have a radio issue. Try flashing the recommended radio of the rom. You can find out more in that thread
Yupp.. Different roms recommend different radios.. I experience that too..
Use Leedroid HD 3.0.0
Very nice!
jerrylzy +1.
Just flashed it and it's awesome, also flashed MDJ v6 kernel as Lee recommended, no lags or bugs for me now.
P.S. Never had lost signal issues with RcMix... Try re-flash radio.
Considering that the latest RCMixHD requires the radio found in the 2.16 generic gingerbread rom (or higher radio) that is probably the cause of the issues you're experiencing.
I've used all the major roms, but I found RCMixHD to be the best, but then I put together my own rom, with a lot of items borrowed from the RcMixHD, and CoreDroid, but changed a bunch of things and cleaned up the build.prop and code found in a few other files. nothing too major just a bit cleaner . There was a lot of unneccessary repetition in the build.prop's of the other roms.
JSLDr0iD 4G v1.01 ( driphter.com/index.php?topic=3884.0 )
This is mainly for the North American DHD (Telus DHD/AT&T Inspire 4G and hsupa is enabled) but it works for the euro/asian dhd's as well
The main version is OC's with MDJ V series kernel, but there is a verison with the stock kernel available.
Download is hosted on our server (Driphter.com) and is a fast download as well.
Sorry, but I cant post a direct link until my 8th reply (kinda lame but I guess its tp prevent bots from spamming the forum), so you're going to have to copy and paste into the address bar.
I just flashes the Leedroid 3.0 and I am fully stisfied. I have no signal issues whatsoever. Additionally, i put in the Sense 3.0 lockscreen (unfortunately I'm still not able to customize it or to find out if it is possible ^^)
I was ob Revolution HHD Beta 4 Gingersense before, wich was awesome too. Then I switched to leedroid. 2.3. for overclocking.
would like to know something about this aswell
using the latest leedroid, but I just saw the RCMixHD 6, should I change? Can't be bothered to flash unless it's worth it ha.

The latest batch of RCMixHD v6 has quite a few issues (caused by the sense 3.0 items), mail doesnt work, scene picker doesnt download new scenes properly, and 'skins' does not function at all.
you may want to hold off until the issues (which is more than just the 3 listed) are fixed.

Mail works just fine for me now, version 6.1.0.1
What would you recommend for RCmix? As i'm getting some pretty poor mobile data and GPS signals, wifi is fine, never use bt, but the MD and GPS are pants on my current radio which was superb on the 5.9.7 rom from RCMix.
Any ideas? Oh and to the original question about rc mix or leedroid, it all depends on what you want, personally i prefer rcmix, i've used them since i had a hero when it first came out, they're a good team and make great roms, but to be honest most of the devs on xda and villain are good eggs so like i said it's all down to you and what you want.
Rcmix seems to be more bleeding edge while leedroid is more stable.
In fact the only issue I've encountered with leedroid is stocks app crashing but I usually remove that app anyway.
Sent from my Gingerbread loaded Desire HD.
well using leedroid you do get rcmix crt and things, even it is not credited properly
But the lack of sense 3.0 stuff in leedroid does make it more stable. For people that need their phones to be stable and dont have the time to flash a new rom every day or two.
Capy, even though I love the RCMixHD Rom with where its headed, its something that I can put on the backburner, in regards to use. Even Leedroid has issues that needs to be fixed, there's just not as many at the moment.
I'm still using the stock 2.36, rooted with gingerbreak, as I continue work on my ROM based on it. Did you get my pm regarding the build.prop?
well i am redoing the whole rom, trying to make it different, but i dont know i am getting a bit sick of alot of requests from peopel to do their work so they can release things, and many doesn't credit, and roms popping up all over, so kinda feel maybe it is time for new device dunno yet

Well, I'm simply working on cleaning up htc's code, I dont want to add anything as of yet, other than keeping the power screen from your Rom (that functionality is too much of necessity which I'm surprised isn't part of the official builds). Though progress is slow as I'm finalising v5.1's of my blackberry hybrids. Cheers capy.
well right now i am working on a pure clean port of kingdom instead
I'm pretty sure you could use items from Rider as well

Maybe you need to use the recommended radio specifically for each rom, they might be different ?

help with wifes epic!

What I am looking for is stock rooted gigerbread rom that has working wifi tethering. my wife's phone hasn't been updated because I rooted her phone and she uses barnacle for free tethering. i read that barnacle doesn't work on gingerbread. also Would be sweet if I could odin it. Have tried in the past to put custom roms on wifes epic and have had varied degrees of success. I have an evo running synergy so i am familiar with rooting and changing roms there but seems to be easier with odin on epic. Thanks for all of your help.
CleanGB BML or Legendary would work great for you. They both can be found in Development subforum. Read through the threads for each to see which one you like better.

Thanks will go look.
You don't need a custom rom to tether. Just root and install the android-wifi-tether app

I've tried a bunch of different ones out and am in the same situation as you... it was rooted for the sole purpose of free tethering (and to remove the samsung bloatware).
The new cleanGB rom is the best i've used, not the fastest but everything works and has been perfectly stable. for tethering i use open garden wifi - this is no longer listed on my market but if you do a google search for it, you can install it directly from their website for free. that's the best/easiest/most stable tether program i've used.

Cleangb has wifi hotspot built in, and I thought it does usb tethering as well. No 3rd party app needed. Anytime an app is pulled from the market, you really have to wonder why, and be cautious DLing directly from their website.

it is in the market just they block tethering apps for sprint devices
wanted to say thanks for all the suggestions going to try clean gb.
+1 on the CLeanGB BML. I've had an issue or too fiddling with undervolting but other than that, it just works and looks nearly stock. I'm not a big tetherer but I seem to recall doing a USB tether a while back and Wireless Hotspot hack is built-in. It also included a few other "nice" hacks that I like. Alternatively, as was mentioned, the android wi-fi tether app worked well when I did use it.

The wireless hack works great, its been built into my roms for some time now. But occasionally I still have to use alternate tether apps, as things like my TouchPad can't see Sprint Hotspot for some dumb reason.
wow just came back on and saw all the responses. Thanks again but what i am looking for is a basic rooted gingerbread rom with touch wiz and sprint hotspot. any further help would be appreciated.
Search works well. Google is great from what I hear.
