as of this very instant, go with Macnut, as Master hasn't updated Axura for a while.
But I would suggest holding out for just a little bit, as Axura is going to have a huge update, and at that point, will top Macnut.

Care to elaborate on the update?

Axura is not going to ever top Macnut IMO. Eugene is too far ahead in this game for Master to one up his rom, after all Master is using Eugene's kernels.. so how could Axura be better?

It's really all about personal preference. You have to try them both to see which works better for you. I've tried both and find Axura to be more smoother... Looks are different too.
Use them for a couple days to see which you would like better.
Yes its still Eugene's kernels.
Waiting for his next update. Currently on Axura 1.0.5

Thanks guys. I'm going to try Mac now and try it out till master drops a new one. I heard master say his new build would bring more to the table, I can't remember what thread its in but its on its way.
Lets not say Eugene is ahead because of his kernels because even he says they aren't his strong point. But he is ahead, no doubt.

I agree and did not mean to sound like he was ahead because of his kernels but lets face it.. who dropped the first rom for the Vibrant? Eugene..

oh no doubt that Eugene is the most important developer for the Vibrant, and Axura wouldn't exist without his work, but Axura has definetly proven to be more smooth. And Master is set to update his ROM to the most stable Froyo our phones have seen.

I just flashed mac and it is way better than I imagined. I expected alot less given what eugene has to work with. This is a nice rom thanks for the input can't wait to flash the next master rom.

Want to flash a Froyo so bad, but no GPS is a deal breaker. Look at forums every day, waiting for Macnut to say "GPS working!".

I thought the same thing but the pros out weighs the cons. I love flash and some of the tweeks that were added. I recomend at least getting the. TW mod.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

I tried both and decided to go back to Axura due to my extensive use of LauncherPro in interface design. Macnut felt too "TouchWiz" like to me... even after loading Launcher2, I still missed the flexibility of LPro...

I would say hold off a few days and see what happens with the GPS issue.

Trigger roms

In my opinion, trigger rims rock! What do you think?

Trigger roms sorry!!!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App

i would say trigger for now. i use trigger and bionix v 1.3.1. trigger for me seems smoother and great batt life n rocked almost a 1900 in quad without set cpu w/ overstock. but inturn bionix v is just so damn fast. so slight edge to trigger. if / when tw comes with anything else oh man, the tide might shift.

but not to discourage tho i saw a 1.3.2 test. hmmmm

I may have to check out bionix thanks for the heads up.

Trigger is my dd. I love all the options. Everything works. I love the theming. Fast, smooth, and never a hiccup. No matter what ROM I flash, I always come back home to Trigger.

hell yeah same here lol theirs just something about it

I have been running Trigger roms since I got my Vibrant in January. I love it. I like the way it looks and runs. And BT is very responsive and active regarding his rom. I have been searching and reading up on other roms, just wanting to try different things...so far I haven't come across one to pull me away.

Trigger all the way. Tried alot of different others, trigger has had best consistent data speeds / battery life for my vibrant fa sho!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

+1 Trigger all the way!

This rom is crazy I haven't charged my phone for almost 3 days!!

I've been using Bionix almost exclusively for the past year as other Roms had broken or non-working parts. I recently tried Trigger and love it. I definitely put it up there with Bionix for quality, speed, and battery life. Bionix 1.3.1 is gold, but Trigger 3.0.1 is what I'm running now.

Everyone is bragging about trigger. Let me try. If it didn't turn out as great as everyone say, I'm going to hate all of you. :lol:

I had a bad experience with Trigger, lost 50% in 2hrs and my data speeds were crazy slow on both 3g and wifi

I tried several 2.21 roms for a while but decided to try trigger, and I am glad I did.now its my dd.

I'm enjoying trigger
Samsung Vibrant
Trigger 3.01

I'm still running trigger 2.9.2 with a couple if fixes that birgertime was swift to provide after people pointed them out, and it runs so well I'm hesitant to even upgrade to 3.0.1. And I came from axura prior to that.

For the record,
both of those things have nothing to with Trigger itself, but an uncalibrated battery, and maybe a bad modem flash

Honestly, I like it too. However, I got a boot loop when I tried to flash with my custom made theme. I will try that later on.
As for now, most of you guys who bragged about this rom are of the hook. lolz
I'm back with Bi-Winning. After down grading the kennel from stock 2.4.1 to 1.5.1, the battery life is so great.

For all those that are unrootable.

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

I just got my evo,(upgraded from htc hero) and as soon as we get root I'm going to flash miui. I had cm7 on my hero and loved it, but I want to try a few different roms out on this much faster device !

Cm7, miui and synergy to test em all. Wife's evo had mikg, so i know that is a good ROM.

MikG. I'm also gonna try some of the new kernels that just surfaced as well. Not much into themes, I like the stock look just fine.

Homie posted this in the general area and it's a legitimate discussion. At least he didn't create a new thread complaining about not having root. Ya feel?
Sent from my PC36100

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.

OMG stock 2.2 sucks! Help!

Was on CM7 thinking that the wifi was terrible and I needed a good signal so I thought I'd go back to the 2.2 roms. So far all Ive been able to do is update the phone to 2.2 stock and I HATE IT!
Quick! what is the fastest method to gain root and get a ROM on there!?
Thanks in advance!

Odin to jfd and root. Then install cwm or if you have the old update.zip reinstall that a couple of times. Oh yeah don't forget to put a rom on as wwell.
Sent from my SGS-t959 using XDA App

wait wait wait. I feel like such a noob. I odin'd to jfd (stock 2.1 right) rooted and installed clockwork recovery. Tried to flash trigger and it didn't work, which made me think, "crap, do I need to be on 2.2?' dammit! I am confused... Are you saying that I should have been able to flash trigger 3.2 from stock, rooted, 2.1? It didn't work for some reason...oh jeez...I bet it was a bad dl...

Yeah. Basically. You might need to wait a little for voodoo to kick in, but I've flashed trigger 3.2 multiple times on 2.1 stock.rooted.

Yeah it is nice, but you could also try any other 2.2 rom. Every dev beat the **** out of 2.2 so its basically perfect for us rom wise

Yea! It worked! Ya know, seriously, it must be the hardware because this phone WITHOUT custom roms SUCKS big time... I don't know how anyone could handle being stock. It is so slow and clunky. Samsung sucks at software. I'm going back to htc on my next.. K. Enough ranting. Thanks guys!

Amen to that! These devs make this phone what it should be. On that note, I misspoke before. My next will definitely be the nexus prime. The beauty there is solid samsung hardware and pure google software. I don't even care what carrier gets it. I'll switch for that sucker!

my phone doesnt run bad on stock actually lol but it runs great on cm7, my next phone is probably going to be the triumph

My phone actually runs RFS pretty good for some reason 0.o I could hardly see a difference between Ext4 and RFS until I ran benchmarks...

No dude I'm being for real. Unless on gingerbread my phone runs RFS pretty good on 2.1 and 2.2...

OMG I am so unprepared for this day!!!

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.

Cm7 with tiamat kernel would have a pretty good battery life, right? I need a whole day battery because I'm always out and about without my charger.

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.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Gave Synergy-Kingdom a little spin. Very nice but Sense had to restart just about every time I hit the home button.
Now trying MIUI...OMG this is sexy sexy fun pants time!!! Might have to make this my full time, it's so sexy.

I love miui rom, best rom out there IMO.

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.
