Fastboot question? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why does
My G2 boot extremely faster than mytouch 4g. My G2 practically takes 1 sec to boot up compared to mytouch. My G2 using virtuous rom and mytouch is using the latest ice glacier rom. I'm using the same boot animation for both.

Do you have fast boot option checked in MyTouch?

Yes I do it still takes a lot longer than my G2 only thing I can guess that the rom is way more optimized than ice glacier rom.

Turn off fast boot and download "hot reboot"from the market well worth it!

Recommend me a lean basic Sense ROM

Stock rom has tons of bloat, even Iced Glacier has tons of stock T-mobile nonsense like themes and whatnot.
Can someone recommend a very basic and minimal sense rom for mt4g?
Thanks!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Open the rom you want in a zip editor and delete the tmo bloat from /system /apps

I was referring to mysense in general with all the themes and stuff.
Lots of good looking roms but no screenshots and don't know how it will be until I flash it.
Just looking for a recommendation on basic Sense.

What should I do?

My moms got a mytouch which sucks, but she doesn't want to spend money on a new phone. I've got an hd2 with a broken screen, or the mytouch which is very slow on its ota and such.
Should I attempt fixing the screen or attempt fixing the mytouch with a custom rom?

I gave my Mytouch to my mom. What I did was put the 1.6 OTA on it. Sure, 1.6 isn't feature rich, but it's plenty stable, fast, has good battery, and works perfectly for calls, SMS, web browsing, etc.

Problem is though this mytouch got the stock ota and is terribly laggy and everything. Are there any easy to do and very vanilla roms out there for it you would reccomend?

Gingerbread OTA update

Hey, I'm a mytouch 4G user (obviously) and I am getting tired of waiting for the gingerbread update. If anybody knows anything about it, please comment. And I also wanna know if it will be getting the newest version of HTC Sense. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Phone Getting Slower

I've had my Mytouch 4G for awhile and flashed a lot of different roms. I make sure to do a factory reset through recovery before installing a new ROM. It seems like its getting slower though. I only have one widget on one of my home screens and when I look at the task manager it says most of my memory is being used but it only shows like two apps running. In addition I moved my apps to the SD Card but it still shows that almost half of my phone memory is being used. Any suggestions?

i would say, if you like HTC Sense & like to stick on to it, upgrade to Virtuous Unity v2.39
If you want a faster rom, try any AOSP roms like CynogenMod 7 or MIUI.
I'm sorry I meant to say 2.39

well, if you like to stick on to sense, do a complete wipe & reflash the rom.
Else, try CynogenMod or MIUI......
Is their a better way to wipe besides doing a factory reset through recovery?

Don't do a factory reset when you install a rom. Just do a complete wipe through recovery.
This is the reason why your phone getting slower.

With about 4/5 essential apps running all day, I get 400+ mb ram all the time.. is 114 normal for sense roms ? As I am using CM7/variations.
You haven't tried just rebooting to free up some RAM?

Twice? 1 time is sufficient, don't forget to wipe system as well under mount settings/format system.

Are you full wiping each time you flash
Yes, I'm wiping, before each try. What's weird, though, is it's only happening on the ics roms. I can run gb roms, with no problem.
