Hey Devs, I appreciate your work in getting Froyo working on these epics. It's not something that I could have done but I do have a question. Is it possible to get Darktremor's a2sd working on any of these ROMs? I'm hovering at around 50mb ram because of my many programs and dalvik taking up space. This pretty much makes my Epic unusable for a daily driver. Thanks for your help.
We need A2SD Please
Lots of smart Devs out there I know . Could someone square away A2SD for us users please
I'm struggling to figure this out as well.

Hi,
I've been lurking around for sometime and I finally decided to root and flash my hero. The question is this:
I think I want a Froyo rom but I don't know which one to get. I'm pretty sure I'd like to have APPS2SD and Sprint Nav on it right away(I don't want to install them myself). Or should I get an 2.1 Rom (since some people have been saying that Froyo is slow [still need APPS2SD and Sprint Nav])? any recommendations on which one to get?
Thanks
yea..u hav been around since 2008..SO YOU SHOULD KNOW THE RULES! the fact that when you made this thread you checked the box saying "yes this is a question" knowing this was a question. yet you stil posted this in the wrong section and didnt read the rules apparently. Im sorry for being rude but you have been on the forums for a LONG time and by then you should have atleast seen the sticky in this development section.
Froyo is the way to go...cm6
No problems, I saw the sticky but there are tons of choices and I didn't see any recommendations. Secondly, the post on stickys doesn't say "no question threads". It just said that questions should go in there place. I thought since this is question related to roms it should go here (I apologies of I missunderstood the post). Thirdly, I only had the hero for a few weeks. While the account is old I really have only been here for about a month.
Anyways, I do appreciate that you gave a recommendation.
Thanks

Froyo has native A2SD, but if you want Sprint Navigation, stick with Nfinite's stock ROM.
I'd recommend any of jaybob's builds of cm6. Apps2sd is native to FroYo (no patition needed), flashing gapps will get you a navigator quick (and better than sprint's imo). Get GPS Status from market to maintain gps. If you like sprint's visual voicemail, there's a thread in the apps and themes section I think. Get Dialer One from market if you're used to Sense dialer, or even if you're not, it beats the stock dialer. And always remember, Nandroid is your friend, good luck!

Aosp v7 for ROM. Firerats partition mod. Deced3nce has great kernels. I have over 50 apps installed and have almost 250MB left internal memory. I have Sprint Navigation and Sprint Visual Voice Mail as well as Sprint Football all running with no problems.
I am getting quadrant scores of 460+ and its the most stable setup I've had since I started flashing.
All can be found on here.

I would do CM6.0.0 stable with my theme... but then again I'm biased
@LiquidSolstice - Thanks
@Ezintn -
Thank you as well, I somehow missed CM6 sprint nav post so you get my applause [APPLAUSE]. And also thanks for the app recommendations, I'll look into them. As far as visual voice mail I got myself google voice. I think I'll take your advice and install CM6 and then add the rest...it sounds like the best option.
@theimpaler747 - thank you for visiting my lowly thread

Well, I'll be damned. I did not know that CM6 could handle Sprint Navigation. Learn something new each day, I guess. End of the day, it really comes down to NFinite's ROMs or aospMOD/CM6.

Not a problem man, let me know if you need anything
Simple question....does anyone know if there are any people out there that are really developing stuff for this awesome phone.....sucks that we get not feed back on mod and stuff....best T-Mobile phone out and no one is even paying attention to it.....smh.....Cyanogenmod would be awesome

devs have to have the phone in order to make things for it. I believe 2 people have it so far and are working on it.
The phones been out maybe a month, have patience
There are 4 roms in development thread, OC/UV kernel.... what else do you need?
This belongs in Q&A section, not development.
Yes... We have a oc/uv kernel. several roms. several developers.
Other known developers should be getting their phones soon.

That's where the thread should have ended. I mean, the question was posted in a forum where several threads for ROMs are...same page even, just a couple threads down.
There is soooo much you can learn by taking just 15 mins and browsing the forums for the MT4G.
you
you are developing
What a disrespectful post.

I know
sudo apt-get sense of humor
I meant the OP. But yeah, I remember waiting months with other phones just for a simple Android update.
Yes your right there are 4 ROM's to bad they are all mostly the same with a few different tweaks, just look at other phones that devs have completely different types of ROM's....and its not a disrespectful post because all I hear is about great devs working hard on ROM's for other phones yet I don't really hear much about them working on the mt4g, not saying they are not but its nice to hear that someone is working on something....why must you guys ***** about something so simple for no reason....sheeesh
And thanks to those with a simple answer..since that was all that was needed
You are the one making a stupid post. You have a question and then you answer your own question by saying there is no one "paying attention" to it. What other phone that has been out as long as the myTouch 4g has so many "completely different" type of Roms? Most Roms tend to be built off a few main sources with tweaks like you said, the super popular Moto Droid has about 4 of those tops.
Oh my God...listen no one forced you to read this post...get off your damn high horse...this a q&a thread....not a question then ***** about it thread....if you have no answer move on to the next post....the dudes from earlier answered my question perfectly also found out zinx got the mytouch4g thanks to that post...stop being useless or keep it moving..
Also I got high hopes for zinx...dude does wonders

zinx is taking over as the CM retainer for the MT4G since kmobs unfortunately had issues with UPS and such. once a phone has a CM rom, so many others make a CM based rom. So be patient and in due time there will be a slough of roms for this awesome phone

Hello all.
I'm the developer of MikFroYo for the htc evo and i am trying to take a shot at making desire hd roms as well.
obviously since i dont own the device i cannot test it my self and i would like some help from who ever is wiling to take a shot at a new rom.
please feel free to pm or contact me on [email protected]
thanks.
Looks like an awesome ROM and I'm sure it would be very welcome in the Desire HD development section
I'd love to help test but unfortunately I need my phone for work and stuff so have to keep flashing and bug testing to a minimum. If only I had a spare DHD!
I say go for it though, I'm sure lots of people will offer help

i hope so man... im basically almost done rebuilding all the apks... but i dont really have a device to test it on.
im working towards making lang specific roms with multi color themes and much more.
i hope someone that has time to test and talk on gchat a little bit while testing it will step up.
Looks like you've put a lot of hard work and effort into it so it would great to have a DHD version.
My suggestion would be to ask a mod to move this thread to Development Section as I think you'll get more exposure for it there. I think a lot of the more regular members spend all their time in the ROM threads in Dev Section and forget to ever look in here or Q&A!

i posted here cuz i want do get lost by all the other graet roms... but i guess u have a good valid point.
i just thought it would be better to skip the rom dev cuz i dont have a rom out yet.
i'll try over there... worst case my post will get lost or moved.
thanks for paying attention man.
No probs man, hope it gets the attention it looks like it deserves

Please clarify. Is it lag on games,menus or something else ?
Dishwasher method still work?
Try this! I really works and makes your phone faster..
Sorry for not being clear. Games. They used to run fine.
It depends. But if you mean for big file games, then get a better sd card or a faster one. If you already have a good one, then....I don't know

Im not sure anyone is going to want to answer a question that has been answered a million times here.
These forums are full of tips and tweaks for speeding up the play.
So my tip for you to fix your lag would be to read these forums
Ok folks.. can I complain about this one?
Posts like these.......
You really expect us to help you when all you post is "how do I fix lag?"
How about, what games are causing it, which model do you have, how much free space, what type of SD card. Are you rooted? Are you overclocked? I could continue for an hour on this line of questioning.
Do a little actual reading on the forum here, then repost your question when you know what to ask. We aren't mind readers, and we certainly aren't Sony tech support.

Well said mate
Ok so this S4 is pretty much the first real smart phone I've ever owned. I've often heard that rooting a device is a great way to go for an android phone. Now could someone explain exactly what rooting it does? It is supposed to basically format the phone and install a stock android OS, right? It will get rid of all the bloatware from Samsung/AT&T?
Are there any disadvantages to rooting it? Am I in any danger of my phone losing functionality? Will I still be able to use all the same settings like the eye detection, or the motion gestures, and the camera will still be the same?
Root is like admin access in Windows. It will not format your phone if you root. It also voids the warranty.
There's tons of info out there about the pros and cons of rooting. When I got my Captivate all I did was read because most of the time... The question i wanted to ask had already been answered. Read as much as you can on here and Google. It will help a lot.

I've read up on it a bit, but not a whole lot. Honestly the main reason I was hoping to root is to free up some space. Do you know approximately how much space I would have if I rooted my S4? Currently have about 8 out of 16 GB being used by the OS/Software
You've got a lot of reading to do. And when you think you've read enough, read some more.

Your free space depends on how many (and the size) of the apps you remove. It's not like you're going to get root then more space just appears.
I can't find the other thread, but here's a good place to start on what apps on be removed.

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING... read. With root access you can really screw up your phone if you don't know what you're doing or what you're removing.
