[Q] Flaahing Roms and Kernels

I have an Htc evo and im new to flashing and rooting. I was wondering if anyone has flashed Myn’s Warm TwoPointTwo RLS 5 and netarchy toastmod 4.3.1 cfs havs nosbc universal signed kernel. And if it is a good combo and what are your guys experineces with them???

Your will probably get more responses if you read up on myns board and ask your question over there, since the vast majority of the responses are from those who use that rom. Good luck

Ive already read alot of the post on myn's thread.
How is MikFroyo? Does everything work on it? Are there any negative effects w/ it?

Both are great rims. You can't go wrong with either

OK thanks guys.

Myn's should be fine with that kernel, but how well a kernel/ROM combo works varies from phone to phone. Just try it out and if it doesn't play nice, try an older version or play around with havs more/ havs less, etc. Or you could try Ziggy's kernels. Just depends on what works for you.
As far as MikFroyo, it's one of my fav sense ROMs. Very nice and everything should work.

best rom to run?

what would be the best rom to run, what is the most stable and would allow me to stay active on my phone at the same thing as giving me great customizations and battery life? also does any of the roms out there all you to set songs for the notification and messaging/email...

I want to say all around cm7(aosp) is the best rom, but not the most stable at the moment. If you like sense roms id say the best is myns warm 2.2. Second best sense rom is koni's elite III imo.
Download "zedge" for custom ringtones and notifications. (Free in market)

It's honestly up to you to find a rom that works for you.
Everyone is going to tell you the name of a different rom.
As fast as sense roms go, I found that Fresh gave me the most stable experience.
Aosp, I found salvageMod to be more stable than cyanogen mod, but cm is much more customizable.
I personally run Myn's Warm Z

After the most recent cm update, I honestly don't know how any rom could be more stable than that. Everything works and 0 forecloses. To each their own though. I did use Fresh for a while and that seemed to be a pretty quick Sense based rom as well. What is best for me may not be for you. Just do like the rest of us and become a flashaholic

Like bjb said, we all have faves, for different reasons, ymmv.
The two Sense based ones that he mentions are in my sig, and also I've found MikFroyo to be very smooth, good batt life, but pretty much stock look.
Going to an AOSP ROM, or a variant like CM7, can be fun, but be Sure to read all the notes and helpful hints in the first posts for each ROM, they all have their "issues". But often they are worth it for the customizations and tweaking options...
Personally, I am a Sense user, but I ran CM-types on my Hero for a long time, and loved them. The Hero needed them though, to get any real function. The Hero choked on Sense.
But (again, my opinion) I've found Sense based ROMs to be the most stable, and fully "working" (your definition may be different than others) on me Evo. Mainly because the Evo has enough power to actually run it...
blah blah blah...

I have been very impressed with CM7 so far..

CM7 one the top on my list for sure..

Does there REALLY need to be 57,000 threads asking what is the best ROM??
Can't people just READ the goddamn forums?

Lol, that wont happen.
I don't know what's wrong with just flashing all the available roms and seeing what works best.

That's the best way...flash all the highly spoken ones...try them for a week, make a note to yourself, then continue on, and stick with what you like.

I have tried a lot of rom,(I am addicted to flashing) and with all these roms. there are some shortfalls. I am on HW 0004 and apart form the screen brightness issue, i find that TMartinPPC_EvoGingerSense_v0.1 is very stable and effective. My screen is not thst bright anyway and the battery is good too.

If you look in the EVO developement section, myns rls5, then mikfroyo 4.6 for sense...then CM 7x and miui for aosp are the most popular. Start with those..

You can also try the rom in my signature one of my favs besides Myn 2.2, and Koni Elite II

[Q] Evo Rom Suggestions

I have been looking into 2.3 Rom and there are few out there as of today that include gingerbread. I am not sure which is best, what would be recommended by users experience.
I did take a look at the Wiki Page about roms and browsed through the pages.
I would like to get some feedback from you guys that already updated their roms to what would you recommend and pros and cons that you found.
Thank you

Cyanogenmod 7 is the undisputable best. No other ROM will work as flawlessy. A manufacturer could not have written a better ROM. It's perfect in every aspect. If it's your first time messing with ROMs then I would suggest this one because otherwise you will have issues with other ROMs. Besides every function works for CM7. GPS, camera, 4g, etc...

Deck's or Salvage mod are the way to go.

You are telling me that those ROMs work as perfect as CM7? I don't believe it.

Depends on your preference. Sense or aosp? A lot of them still have some bugs but if you search the forums you can find fixes. Just make sure to make a backup before you flash! What may work great for you might not for someone else due to different hardware and what not. Trial and error is the only way!

...WELL! from my experience flashing roms, if you want to flash and roll about your day and not worry then a sense rom like FRESH or Mikfroyo or Sprintlovers is the way to go.
if you like to tinker and update and check in on responses about issues on a daily basis, a AOSP rom like cm7 is the way to go.

Hardly. Marginally. Barely.
Its not drastic. If at all. Only because it is, essentially, CM7 minus some 'system bloat.' Don't believe the night and day hype.
Nubs.

I've exclusively used CM7 for quite some time now...just switched over to evodeck and it's been a flawless experience. CM7 has given me random issues here and there. If someone asked me which one I would recommend between the two? evodeck for sure as of now. You also get 2.3.4 with evodeck instead of 2.3.3 with CM7.

I've been using Misfit's port of Shift Rom and its amazing. Gingerbread with Sense 2.1=WIN!!! lol

That's a load of crap. My CM7 ROM runs absolutely flawless and so is the case for many many people that use it.

woe! ok, ok you special, everything works for you and i know it is for many but you still the minority...so you flashed cm7 and dont care to flash a nightly or mod it? thats the most fascinating part about CM!
dont get me wrong CM is an awesome developer and ROM but thats the price some have to pay for cutting edge ****!
if you read the threads the majority of posts are issues and how to go about fixing them, not just this thing is flawless and doesnt need anymore updates!
if that was the case you would see stable releases once in a blue moon.
im running UD ROM which is a variant of CM7. i got most things operational but get glitches every now and then, but i know my way enough to figure it out so it dont efffect me much... but for someone inquiring about flashing AOSP i was just voicing my opinion and merely stating that if you are the type to get involved and join in to discuss what can help with the advancement of CM and AOSP, as pros and cons as asked by OP...
dickhead!

My aosp daily is Kings out of this world and my daily sense is Evolvedrom shifted. I second JRE77 though. My phone doesn't like certain roms that work great on another phone. Just use RA recovery, have a good working backup, wipe everything and flash away. You'll find one. Half the fun of being rooted is trying a bunch a different roms. Lord knows I have and still do even though I have my daily drivers

If your new to roms I would try CM7 first. I personally prefer myn's stuff because I like sense better.

I completely understand what you are saying but at the same time I was suggesting a rom that would give hime no trouble bc if he is asking then chances are he is not experienced and does not want all sorts of truble being his first time. I totally understand the testing phase and how that can be fun but you must understand what my POV was.

Well, I flashed to CM7 and all my apps like phone and such were gone. Can you guys please assist

Did you do a full wipe?

I get an error even trying to go to stock ROM

Please help. I am fairly new to rooting and am stock. Any tutorial will do

Should DragonMOD switch to CM7 base? [POLL]

Ok guys, back to working on DragonMOD. What we need to know is how many people would like or would mind if we switched to a CM7 base. Some of the features that we want to implement would be 800x easier on CM7 base vs Stock base. Also I would like to clarify that this doesnt mean that the 2.2 kernel will be dropped, I will personally maintain the 2.2 kernel but the ROM would switch to CM7 and there would be a CM7 based kernel aswell. Please feel free to leave your opinion aswell. We dont want to abandon 2.2 as there are still those who need the barely but functioning GPS of 2.2, but as it seems for this project the Samsung base just doesnt cut it for the ROMs goal.
PS: oops on the typo in the poll XP

CM all the way with voodoo color and sound and if possible try the new drivers from optimus 3d, gfx are the same but reported to be newer version.

Idk about that, but I just want to say again, the ROM would be the main thing switching, I'd still be working on the kernel for 2.2 and a 2.3 kernel

If you were able to make it more battery efficient I think I would make the switch. I really love your kernels so it might be worth it.

i'm all for more cm7 kernels. i'm stock cm7 right now because bali hasn't been updated and something changed with cm7 so it no longer works.

That would be part of the goal, but I'd also be maintaning the 2.2 kernel so even if you didnt like it thatd still be an option =] This is all up for debate, if the consensus is to stick with 2.2 we will, if its for CM7 thats the way the rom and kernel will go with the 2.2 kernel being a side project of mine

Yeah if it were more battery efficient then go on ahead. Until then toxic 8 and dmz nightly kernel 3 will be my daily driver.

ROM Suggestion plz!

Hey XDA,
Its been a long time since I last did anything with my phone. Used to run Baked Snack and some other ROMs that were on here. Got a replacement phone and have just been running stock froyo for the past 6 months or so. I can't believe how many roms there are now for the Epic! None of them look familiar either.
I've been getting an itch to start flashing again. I was hoping to get some suggestions for what I should try next. Are there any good ones that you might recommend? I've been following MIUI for a while but am worried about reliability. As you might guess, a stable rom is most important to me. Battery life, and clean looks are also important. I don't need fancy backgrounds or startup animations. Just something as close to barebones as possible.
Any suggestions will be appreciated--TIA!

Srf 1.2 then flash the genocide 2.0 kernel in the same flash session. I'm sure many will give you this suggestion
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

SRF 1.2 I use Revolted kernel w/it Sleek...clean...fast...no FCs. Many out there, but I'm stuck on this one. I think they're working on 1.3.
I like Go Green too, just the select menu was hard to read. But it's nice nonetheless. I think I ran that on EH17. SRF is EC05 based.
Anyhow...qbking77 has some great vids on youtube...there you can see how some of them look and work before trying them.

I agree, Simply AOSP v4, and v4.1 will be out this weekend. It has journaling on by default and will flash the kernel automatically
But in all fairness, there really isn't a bad ROM in the Epic forum.

If you want no problems and basic rooted stock then you want either ReRFS ROM or odin in EC05plus.

Gotta say..EC05 with SFR 1.2 and genocide.....i've flashed them all and for me this is the most stable

Whichever you decide, please read through the entire thread for that ROM in Development so you can see what issues might pop up and what was done to resolve them.

Bonsai 4.1.3 has been my go-to ROM. It's as close to perfect as I could imagine, really really stable, great battery life, and overall just reliable. It also does this without replacing your sounds with stupid robot noises, heavy metal guitars, or putting some ridiculous theme on your phone.
You'll have to google "epic 4g bonsai" to find the site, it's not available in the dev forums here.

I like stock for the most part, EH17
Though I have updated to EH17plus kernel
