GOOGLE STOCK Rom Question - Fascinate General

Hey guys there a 2.1 google rom floating around? Something not based on touchwiz???

Closest I have seen to bone stock is Black Hole. An interesting ROM that feels more like cooking and modding from my old HTC Apache.

You mean an aosp rom that people have been salivating over and asked numerous times for the last 2 months. NO.
good day.

Marty,
You have a PM, sir.

It was a Fail! Got stuck at samsung screen. Odin saved me via restore feature!!
Tried it a few times but no go.
Thanks!

just use the stock theme

Theres nothing like stock android! Even if its the fastest phone, KNOWING that touchwiz is there using MY memory...it kills me. its like a new scratch that only you see. You can use touchup paint but its never the same!

Adrynalyne,
You have chosen not to receive private messages? Goodness gracious man. Hit me up on irc. Gotta question for you.

From what I know you can only hide TOUCHWIZ!! And when something is hidden it makes it worse. lol

Go into the irc channel and click on the deodexed link in the topic, there is a highly unstable aosp rom there, the phone does not work.
Do a NANDroid backup, it's only fun to play around with for a little.
Mods, fell free to delete this post if there is anything wrong with it.

Axura 2.2.5.6 is beast!

If you want a good stable unofficial froyo rom based on the latest leak get this rom!
Comes with 4 launchers!
Not hating on other roms this just came to mind. This is a good noon rom because it has so many options the only dangerous things is that voodoo come activated so be careful!

Everyone has their personal opinion, and I respect yours. Personally, I think pre-installed launchers that were not used are basically bloatwares. I like a clean rom to work with and install only softwares that I need.
Yea I uninstalled all of themm
Just wanted tom promote this rom since I see nero posts

I don't care for ADW so I uninstalled it with Titanium. It's not like 2 or 3 extra launchers are putting me out of space.
I didn't know there was a .6 Axura yet. I just did 2.2.5.5 and I'm loving it though.

I promote that everyone tries all the roms because they all have their qualities. I just installed Axura 2.2.5.7 last night and all my benchmarks went up. My buddy is amazed at how fast you can navigate using this rom. I see the boot screen has not been changed lol.
Four launchers installed definitely classifies as bloatware to me. Don't need a dev to install apks for me. I prefer eugene r2 gingerclone. The rom is like 60mb smaller than any other vibrant froyo rom out now.

Some ppl have not tried all lauchers so this gives them that chance. Pick the one you like delete the others = no bloatware
i was using nero and i flashed this rom. i used it for about an hour and it was so slow i got frustrated and flashed back to nero and i am loving it. everyone will have a different experience i suppose.
I LOVED axura back when it was 2.1 then every rom started becoming themed like ginger bread I love the notification bar of that.
Can someones post a normal screen shot of axura?
Just because if this thread I'll flash axura later today.
Screen shot please!

Ive been on this ROM forever now and have no means of switching. If worst comes to worst ill port it myself like i did with it when it 1st started. (its just time consuming)
Its a sad day when Devs cant get along and people have personal agendas that get placed in the negative light!

If you don't care much about bluetooth, and 4g. Id say give CM7 Alpha a try. I feel like I'm in a whole new world after installing that rom after using every rom available! Except simply asop(cm7 clone)/ which I'm getting ready to test here in just a second when its done downloading!

Simply aosp is the next best thing to cm7 IMO. Never have problems on it, something always ends up breaking at some point or another with the other roms. For me anyways.

I like SRF 1.1.1. Never tried anything else because it worked so good when I started with 1.1.0.
If you are on EE03 GB for me, the more stable ROM is anonymous V6. This guys have tried to fix most of the bugs from Swiss Cheese and more. V7 will be even more stable when they release it soon. I 100% recommended it if you guys want to try GB. Is Still a work in progress, but still very reliable.

Haven't found a really stable custom rom yet. I'm back on stock, forcing myself to wait for the Sprint Gingerbread update release.
As others have said, try some, the beauty about being rooted and having the ability to flash custom ROM's is you can change as often as you want. No harm in flashing one, trying it out for a day or 2, flashing something else for a couple days... experiment until you find the one that you personally like best. Enjoy
We only have eight roms find the one that works best for you lol. I've been on SFR since release and currently have it paired with th Genocide kernel with great results. Just make sure to enable journaling.

i run the same set up
and this is my quad
Here is a writeup of the setup I use on my phone, includfing the additional mods.
For me, the theme is the most important part, as most ROMs are pretty close to each other (except asop & cm7)
My fav setup on my Moment came from when I built my own collection from all the development pieces, so I figured I would start my collection for the Epic as well
EXT4 is a standard for me now, so after stock flashing to stock EC05, the next step is to add:
Clockwork Mod 3.0.0.6 or Clockwork Mod 3.0.2.5
Next is my base EC05 ROM, currently I am using SyndicateROM Frozen
I will probably stay with this ROM until CM7 is fixed, or a Frankenstein version is released
My FAV theme has finally been updated, here is the link to it: Honeycomb Fusion 1.1 / Addons!
Next is custom apps, I simply love the transparent MMS app, it is a themed versions of stock, and is good enough I don't need any other version: Transparent Messaging App Collection (EC05,EB13,DK28)
Then I found a transparent dialer in the thread for Erebos! Slick, Professional theme in post number 6
Another must have app, though it comes with the ROM, is WiFi Tether (ver 3.0-pre11) as it works to connect my Moment to my Epic via WiFi. Here is a link to the download page for the latest version
Added the ADW Ex Launcher, and while I still prefer LP, I am gonna keep it because the Black Glass 1.7 Theme makes my App drawer transparent!

Help me keep my Epic!

I've had my Epic for about a few days now and I'm starting to feel like I made the wrong choice. I chose mostly on the hardware, than the software. The battery drains like the phone has a hole in it, the TW UI is just bad and I can't use the regular launcher. I'm sure this phone would be better with pure android. So what should I do? ROMs, Kernals, etc. Thanks in advance!

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
There's definitely a nice selection of Kernels and ROM's available, take a look at the development section, read through some of the features of the different ones available, and see if you find one you'd like to try.
In the end, whether you keep the phone or return it for a Nexus, is all up to you... none of us can really answer this for you, because we all have different wants and needs in our phones.
And fwiw, software side of this phone can be easily modified/customized, so if you're happy with the hardware, then perhaps you should look into the software customization.

Well the kernel has tweaks in it that can save battery... I'd go with syndicate rom frozen with the genocide 1.1 kernel... pretty good combo for me, I can have my screen on for about 4hrs and I'm sure if you use the phone less you can get a few days out of it

A good tip to remember...if you do go the custom ROM route, some have no journaling. If you choose one of those, make sure you power down phone completely and don't let battery die or you will get force closes out the arse. If this my be an issue for you, get a ROM with journal on or flash the journal on mod after flashing the ROM.

Go with SyndicateROM Frozen. The 1.1 version needs updating ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1091680 ) on the ClockworkMod. The 1.2 version ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131544 ) requires the latest ClockworkMod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115999 ). You need to flash modem to EC05 with Odin.
What I did was flashing modem to EC05, put the first CWM on the phone, then installed SynROM Frozen 1.1. After that, I updated the CWM, then updated to 1.2. I think the 1.2 is not full package (?) and upgrade from the 1.1 (?). Rodderik will update the 1.2 version with latest CWM. You can either wait for that update or continue with the steps that I did toward the 1.2 version.
Edit - SynROM Frozen 1.1 comes with ClockworkMod included. When you get it installed, just update the ClockworkMod (what I did was using the flash method with Odin) then upgrade to 1.2 version.

You had it partially right. Hardware is paramount simply because you can replace the software with better software but you can't replace what drives it. Root your phone with the new purple CWM and then give the Syndicate rom a try. What kernel you choose for it depends on your phone since they each take to certain kernels differently. I am personally using the second to last version of the Genocide kernel and voltage control with great results.
Think of the rom as a car's body that you can choose to option and the kernel as its engine.
I prefer Go Launcher over Launcher Pro and Handcent over all the others available.
If you want incredible battery life download an app called DataSwitch by TomatoX.
Make sure to enable journaling too.

I thought the same thing when I first started using tw... If your taking about the launcher I won't argue. But the rest of tw is pretty good. Built in task manager that clears ram, the dialer is dope. Contacts list is very functional, U can swype right on a name to call our left to txt. Also easy to navigate if u have alot of contacts. Hold your finger on the right in portrait mode to jump through letters, than if, lets say you know alot of T's when u get to T, slide your finger to the left and you can sort by the second letter (feel free to say thanks). If your in to facebook the buddies now and whatever other things are built in to the tw launcher (though if u change launchers you lose those widgets) activities in contacts links your fb friends, the... Does... And u can... With... And so on and so on and so on... theres alot to learn that u wrong in a few days... I've had mine since release day and I just found out... Yesterday... long story short, u only get one chance to trade ur phone in. Use the whole 30 days before u decide
P.s. u can change your screen brightness by long pressing the notification bar and sliding left to right. But u gotta have auto brightness turned off (thanks ↓)

[Q] Which ICS Rom?

I'm sure if this question has been asked previously but I can't seem to find it anywhere so here goes...
Which ICS rom would you say is the most stable? I would like to put an ICS rom on sister's phone. Or should she just go with another rom all together??
Please don't flame me for this question, I'm still a noob at this stuff
Thanks for any advice/recommendations.
There is no 'best' ROM..all on personal preferance. If you never use bluetooth, then one ROM might be more 'stable' than the other. If you do use bluetooth, then the other ROM might be more 'stable'. All on what your sister needs her phone to do. If it's just texting, calling, and facebook, any ICS ROM will do. Press thanks if I helped

She use her bluetooth all the time plus she plays alot of games too. Which would be the best for her? I was reading somewhere that there was a problem with low mic, I think I can't remember where I read that.

Depends on what she likes in a ROM as I said before. Many ROMs support bluetooth. For instance, unofficial CM9 here has bluetooth, but so does zips ROM here. I'd go with zips personally.

@g33kchic
I agree with invasion2 I have only tryed two of them but you should really do allot of reading on the different ones and make sure of things as far as how often the rom is updated. These roms are supper new so they have some strange non stock things that pop up from time to time I don't like to say bugs because most of these guys/gals do this as a hobbies and well things happen. So unless your ready to constantly be helping her with her phone you might think about doing to yours first. Just a FYI wish you well.

Please don't flame me for this question, I'm still a noob at this stuff
Thanks for any advice/recommendations.

I wouldn't recommend putting any ics Rom on her phone cause they all have some problems.

Which would you recommend putting on her phone? She likes the way ICS looks that's why I was looking for a stable one for her. Looking for stability for her as well everything functioning camera, bt, games etc.
Euroskank cm 7.1 has some ics looks to it. Top it off with either go locker or widget locker for lock screen replacement.
Edit: download from rom manager would be the fastest way to find it.

I'd recommend TDJ's CM7 kang, and to get the ICS look, download an ICS CM7 theme, GO Launcher EX, and an ICS theme for GO Launcher EX. Set the lockscreen to Ring unlock in CM settings, and pick the Holo ring style. It's a really ICS heavy look while still retaining all the functionality and stability of GB.

I don't think the free version allow you to see the roms? I tried and it said I have to have the premium version.

I'd go with zips ROM, haven't run into any force-closes at all. Plus the aroma installer is great to have her there to see what apps you want pre-installed such as Angry Birds Space and other random goodies. It's extremely smooth and there's no low-mic issue. Just flash the camera patch that's in the OP of the zips thread ICS ROM after installing to fix the green line on the camera.

Your recommendation doesn't make sense for someone not familiar with flashing roms or rooting.
Do yourself a favor and stick with gingerbread cm7 or sense 3.0.

Hey eq I tried this rom for sister yesterday it starting acting weird where it kept showing the boot animation screen and my sister was kinda upset because she lost some important text she needed.
what I wanted to ask you before I wiped it I did a backup to see if we could maybe go back to retrieve her text messages but tried that but still no go with that.
Do you recommend any other stable rom that would be good for her?
Also do you know if text messages can be retrieved from a backup in cwm?
I know this is a lot but any help or direction would be greatly appreciated

What you should have done before even booting into recovery, for future reference, is made a backup of everything with Titanium Backup. Then you could have restored your messages to any ROM you wanted.

I have found the unofficial build of the ICS rom to be the most stable soo far. Everything seems to be functional and I havent had any issues with it. My phone literally is like 5 times faster than when i first got it. My battery likfe has tripled adter installing the shots of awesomeness kernel.
Man this thing is dope. I dont know if youre at all interested in what I have to say but if you are, please check out the link in the bottom, because these guys who made this deserve some credit for their hard work.

Give it a try, you wont be disappointed. Just maek sure to root your phone and everything before actually installing the rom, but im sure you already know this so theres no need for me to be telling it to you.
But yeah, everything is functional on this rom, you wont be disappointed... trust me
