The dev for this rom doesn't post here, I wish he would... This has been a great rom for me, and I have tried about every rom out atleast once with the exception of chevy. All phones not created equal, this has been smooth straight out the door. For anyone looking for a new rom, id highly suggest giving this one a try. I am in NO way affiliated with this rom, but I enjoy this forum above the others and think others here will enjoy this rom also! BTW, this is a themed rom.

Best rom i've used so far if u want speed,reliability, and color. This rom is very stable for me at 1.45. It gets warm but only under heavy use like movies gaming etc. I score a 2500 on benchmark with low voltage @ 1.2 and runs best at that setting for me with the longest battery life usually around a full day with heavy use and consistent music playing.

Question, Have you run into any problems with Apps, like Adobe Flash 10.1. I'm using Droid Eris after rooting but ordered new Droid X as replacement. So far, Eris runs much better, but I want to find a stable rom to install on my DX. I want to start rooting my DX but didn't want to brick the phone.
Thanks

DarkSide is Ultimate!!
Hey gang, some of you know me from starting out here in the HTC Windows Mobile arena. Since moving to Droid, I was worried about you folks at first, but now I see that you are in very good hands. Your Droid membership and development seems to be moving along nicely. The gentleman who initiated this thread is quite right...this is an awesome ROM and I would welcome others to give it a shot - you will not be disappointed. For the record, I'm guilty, I have definitely gone to the Dark Side.
This ROM is definitely underrated. I tried it as an almost last choice. I can't believe that there is not more buzz over this one. It is the best of the bunch that I tried. IMO anyway.

what ROM has everythinig working ON THE HTC EVO?? AND which one the most awesome one!? SOME SCREEN SHOTS WOULD BE AWESOME.. if you guuys could help me here! I got bored of just trying out different launchers.. wanna go into different ROMS! THANKS!!
Flash them and try them out. I liked running Myn's Z rom for a while to try out the new Sense (which is suwheet), now I'm running Sprint Lovers which has everything working (as you say), with a few extras. For real though, just try them out, worst you can do is waste some time setting up your phone again. But hey, you said you were bored so that shouldnt be a deturbance.
MIUI is the best ROM around, period. It is the perfect balance of style and substance. 4G does not work but it is a fair trade off. We just got gingerbread but it still has a few kinks to be worked out. I recommend flashing one of the latest Froyo builds.
It all depends on what you want.
Sense
AOSP
Miui

Many of the ROMs listed as threads in the Development section have screenshots of them, as appearance is a huge deciding factor for many of us. Take a look around and you'll see!

I'm running Myn's Warm Z right now (which lacks 4G, but eh, I never use it anyway, 3G is more than adequate) and Sense 2.0 is damn sweet. It's gorgeous, responsive, fluid, and just has minor touches here and there that most people really enjoy.
MIKFROYO is a great rom to try,,
I guess I need to try Mik's now... !
Yea ive heard the mikifroyo or something like that righ? Does everything wrkk on that one? Im just looking for something different.. and if i give it a shot at this ROms it will be my first time.. hope everything goes good and not brick my phone ha

Bricking only really happens from radio updates. Remember to back up stock first! Yeah everything works in mikfroyo

I've tried a few Roms, the latest being CM7 and VaelPak. After 2 weeks with those Roms, I went back to Myn. No GPS or voicemail issues, and everything runs smooth. I think Myn Warm Z is the best looking Rom, but the lack of 4G made it a dealbreaker as my daily driver.
Yea.. ive never even done a nandroid.. haha.. but ill follow some instructions and i should be fine.. hopefully.. with the radio updates.. do i have to have a current one for it to wrk on ROMS o no?

You root your phone once, the Rom it self is not rooted. They usually come with tethering and the hotspot fix.

In the OP for Mik's, there is a link to 2 videos. The 2nd one shows how to do a nandroid, wipe properly and flash the ROM.

Whats a big cause of changing to a ROM? Is it more battery life or something? or its just the customization on them?
man when did people get so lazy ? just go t to the dev section and do a little research?
So, since you guys cannot root at this moment, I thought, why not make a thread about what exactly you are going to flash the instant you get root? So here it is. Be specific, down to the last mhz and themes...
I know once I get root, I'll flash CM7 with the Synergy theme on the market and the Tiamat kernel...
Have Fun

Patience fellas that's all it takes is patience, soon there will be root for 2.3.3.
I will jump in...
As soon as it happened.. I have 3 guys at work that bug me 2x a day for me to root their phones.
I will start with one and work my way around the store.
I want my kingdom Rom back so bad its been like 2 months from the time I had root and that Rom was just getin good so I know it has to be perfict now
Kush Deck, whatever the latest release is (I don't torture myself keeping up with the thread right now), and the Tiamat 3.3.7 SBC kernel.
Then I will breathe a heady sigh of relief, make a nandroid backup to use as a daily driver, and start looking for the latest and greatest of everything and start my old flashing ways again.
Synergy will be my first choice. I liked all the betas,but then started having heat related reboots, went into sprint and the rest is history including my ability to root...
I was using VR Kingdom so I would definitely try synergy and Kings shooter port.....urghhh I hate not being rooted!

Call HTC and say that, not Sprint.
So like everyone else I've been waiting and waiting for root. Now that I have it I made a big mistake by not deciding on which rom to start with. So many choices. What's a man to do?!?!?
Just start flashing.

Yeah. I've found the best combination (on this end, at least) has been CM7 & Tiamat 3.3.7. I use the non SBC but you may want to use the SBC one to really squeeze out what you can. As always, things may or may not be the same for everyone, so testing out different combinations is encouraged.
Downloading OMGB and Synergy-Kindom right now. Going to do some playing around and then once I have that out of my system then I'll hunt down the holy grail for max battery life. I never really liked CM7 but maybe I'll give it another try.
I guess I'm going to have to put a rooted stock on and backup my game data because damn it I'm not going to start Cut The Rope and Angry Birds over again.

As good as I've seen. But I use my phone a lot, so my experience may not fall in line with others. If I can snag 8-10 hours and 3-4 hours of screen on time (which obviously varies depending on what is happening when screen is on and phone in use) then I'm content. Not necessarily saying from 90-some% to 0% as I tend to plug it in before it completely dies, but around 20-30%. It all depends, hard to throw out a legit average / value / number as it depends on multiple factors. But, for me, that combo has been as solid as any.
Of course the first thing I did is nandroid. I even restored it to make sure it was good to go. I've wiped and now I'm waiting to Synergy-Kingdom to boot. Kind of fell back he love with Sense so I'm going to try that out for awhile.
Yeah. Synergy was solid for me. Was the longest I hung onto a Sense ROM.

Gave Synergy-Kingdom a little spin. Very nice but Sense had to restart just about every time I hit the home button.

I don't think I'm going to get any work done this week. Playing with my phone is too addictive. I'm flashing OMGB right now but I really think I'm going back to MIUI with a kick ass kernel for battery life.

I fell in love with SENSE 3.0, but I went back to CM7 because I just needed my HDMwIn and SixAxis app to work.
Having issues with Synergy-Kingdom Nightly. Sense reboots almost non-stop. Going to try Synergy RSL1+Godmod as it seems there is a lot of the Sense 3.0 apps are in there. I'm liking what I'm seeing so far but I'm probably going to end up on MIUI. Going to try this for a week and see how it goes.
I also have miui on my evo. I rooted my wife's evo tonight and put miui on hers. It is by far the best looking and best performing rom there is. Once I found it i never went to another.

I'm on Synergy+GodMod right now. Going to run that this week. It's nice but it's not as fast as I thought it would be. My friend is sending me another EVO 4G so I think I'll try out roms on that and put MIUI on this one as my daily driver.
Is there a way to get the Sense 3.0 email client on Sense 2.1? I really dug that from the little while I had Sense 3.0.

Not another one.....
Again, there is no "best rom". Everyone has their own opinion, and everyone has different wants/needs in a rom. Since you are rooted, just try out a few. That's the benefit of flashing roms, just make a backup, and if you dont like a new rom, flash another or reload your backup.

I can't get AOKP to run more than a minute (literally) without a random reboot and I have flashed my share of ROMs. Plus last I checked AOKP doesn't have everything working.
Your best bet for stable fully functional ROM is MikG3.0.
I'm liking AOKP but it still has some minor issues (being ICS, it's no surprise). I expect it to be my daily once everything is ironed out.
I'm using a tweaked CM7 for daily use, but I also really like the Mik roms.
I'm using the Ligux port from pspunderground. I'm not really into AOSP that much, but this is a great ROM. Very smooth.

No matter what I try cm7 nightly's always pulls me back. Especially since the officials started up again. I tried Nitrous 1.3.1 which was pretty solid. Radiance 6.1 runs great on my wife's phone.

I am tired of flashing back to stock to get prl updates. Any favorite Sense roms? I am running the october 2011 stable release of cm7 and have been since late october without any real issue however my prl is getting really stale so I need to do something in the next week or two.
Edit- I should mention that I am looking for a fully functional daily driver sense rom. I looked through this list http://evo4g.roms-db.com/ and was hoping to narrow it down to one or two that others have tried/liked.
I require 4g radio, gps, 3g data, wifi and wireless hotspot (like cm7)

The express is a godly ROM, I switch roms a lot and and always find something, with express nothing is ever wrong, constantly updated with perks, and has themed and stock, the devs really know what thier doing, sense based but amazing, I love it so much, that's rare for me to say for a rom
