Cyanogen great job

Well since I install cyanogen 6.0.0 on my Evo 4g last night , it is now time to give up my iPhone for good! Goodbye old pal.

How are you like the Rom/Kernal or both?

w00t! The snap kernel may interest you if you like the stock cm6: http://tinyurl.com/373jx3f

I love it with the 8.1 kernel. Hit 1734 on quadrant. Yeah I know doesn't really mean anything but from froyo stock to this rom and kernel 500+ on quadrant is nice.

It's an "EVO 3G" in most parts of the U.S.
Even if it were available to me right now I would still use CM6.

No 4G is worth the sacrifice for a fast running ROM... but I can't want for a CM6 with 4G!

Once you have 4g, you will never want to go back to 3g, the speeds are so much better in every app that uses any kind of data.

CM6 is a great ROM but 4g can be had without sacrifice in Fresh or Baked Snack.
Swyped on my EVO

One of the things I liked the most abt CM6 is, modificable power control widget (add or take what you want on it), quick keyboard responsiveness, um can't think of anything else. I normally flash Fresh (3.2.0.0 donate version off HTC's latest 3.28.651.1 build with a MUCH IMPROVED stable and battery saving kernel by HTC, BIG IMPROVEMENTs over Kingklick's kernels! I mean BIG!!!)
When I feel like it, I switch to CM6 to toy around...when it comes to business and stability, I like Fresh (wish there was a senseless version of Fresh!)

4g is not in my area so i could care less about 4g but CM6 = WIN pure WIN

Cm6 is the best...I'm using it now..so much better then stock

I really wish I knew how to get all these. I don't even know to root it..

Ill probably try it whenever the 4g works.. my phone is fast enough as is and losing 4g is a killer for me. I never got giving up functions for a rom though... *shrug*

Yeah, I mean, we're all paying $10 for 4G. Even though we're not all covered by 4G, it is always an option when traveling, etc. Seems silly to regress IMHO.

If you know how to use a computer you can do it. It looks more intimidating than it is. If you're still on 2.1 use Simple Root (doesn't get any easier). Froyo is a little more lengthy but its not hard. Just read through the tutorials a few times and it won't seem so bad. Sorry to jack the thread.

Ok, well there are so many tutorials I don't know which one to use. Any help would be appreciated. Sorry to bother all of you.

i will be switching to cm6 once 4g is working. i suppose if i lived in some backwoods area that has no 4g i wouldnt mind not having 4g, but man 4g really helps when doing things on the phone that require lots of data. not only that but sometimes 3g can get so damn saturated that speeds are terrible, usually happens at concerts or places where there are lots of people, i just switch to 4g and bam im good haha.

Phoenix isn't backwoods and Sprint doesn't offer 4G here....

I gave in last night and after 2 weeks of telling myself it wasn't worth the risk of bricking my phone, I rooted it and installed CM6 Stable. It is a great rom, luckily the 4G for me is 2 hours away and I get great 3G coverage so its not a big deal. I saw they made the front page on Engadget today it seems like I jumped aboard at the right time.

Traded Epic for Evo; Custom ROM not allowing activation on Epic?

Hi everyone. Yesterday I traded my Epic for an Evo (for my own personal reasons - regardless of how FUBAR they may be to you). I love the Evo and everything is going well... UNTIL the guy I traded makes me aware of a small little problem: Sprint says I can't activate the phone with a custom ROM on it.
I guess I must have forgot to tell him to not let Sprint in on the phone cracking, but too late. Now he is saying he needs me to help him put the phone back to stock. It currently has Quantum ROM 1.3 on it and clockwork mod and all that stuff.
Do any of you believe that the phone won't activate with this ROM? If so, do you have any recommendations of how to get this guy up and running - remotely? He lives 40 miles from me and it was a hassle for us to meet up yesterday.

Flash the modem stickied at the top of the Dev page using ODIN and you're golden. Why don't you just call sprint and activate the phone. You don't have to bring the phone into a store.

We did call Sprint and they put it in the system and everything and said it was done. However, the phone never activated

BTW, I am at that page and looking for the stock ROM. I see a couple of 2.1 ROM's, but neither of them seem to be the stock official 2.1

The stock tar is stickied at the top of the development thread, just follow the directions.

I took a chance at the method at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=786266 and it worked perfectly. His new Epic works great and is back to Android 2.1.
Thanks for all your help everyone!

Last time I checked, the Epic ran TouchWiz - not Sense.

Yes, at sucking, the EVO is faaaarrrr superior I agree..lol
But realistically if your gonna make those kind of statements at least claim why you feel that way >.>

Last time I checked my evo was slow as piss and everything lagged, including the Notification area, App Drawer and the whole 9 yards. On top of that it liked to eat battery like a starving child. Htc needs to learn how to make graphics drivers. XV6800, Touch Pro, Touch Pro 2. The cycle never ends, well besides the G2 of course.

vibrant mms.apk

I was using dk28 for a while until it started getting real buggy and went back to di18. The one thing I miss about dk28 is vibrant style mms.app really love the the blue and yellow format. Is there anyway to port that over to di18? Can't seem to find it anywhere. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

Your best bet would probably just be to use handcent until we get official 2.2

I don't think the developers are gonna do that when most of them are working on stuff for dk28.

??? So let me understand, EC05 is been out for what, all of a few hours? And you want an honest opinion of whether its worth it?
I'd say flip a coin, go with that...

Just wanted to apologize if I sounded like a d!ck in my previous post. It makes me upset when I see others reply like that, so it is not good for me to do it.
What I should of said, is give it some time and people will be able to give you an honest answer, but my guess is that it is worth it. I don't see how it would be possible for Samsung and Sprint to take an additional four months and make it worse, but you never know.

I'm on stock ec05 right now and rooted and everything is fine so far. Sprint I'd isn't all that cool really. Its neat but not amazing.
When the custom roms come out we will be rocking

And the custom roms are what I am waiting for. I've been using Syndicate Frozen for awhile now. I am loving what it has done to my phone. Fast, responsive, getting nearly two days of use off a battery with over 3 hours of screen on time. That is impressive compared to what I used to get.
I've only been running the EC05 modem for a few days, so I cannot comment on whether that improves anything.

I've been runnning Syndicate Frozen EXT4 EC05, and am loving it. I've had my Epic for about 2 weeks now. Soon as I pulled it out the box i rooted it and went threw a few roms, till I came across Syndicate Frozen. The other ROM i tried were still cool but Syndicate Frozen is simple and fast.

[REQ] Touch Wiz Based Rom for g2?

Has anyone made one? Do you think its worth porting?

Most people with touchwiz want to get rid of it. Those who don't have it want it. Lulz.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App

I love the contacts app for touchwiz, sliding left or right to send messages or call, easier then opening the contact then clicking call or message (because you dont have to open it, less to load, less time wasted).

I think touch wiz is pretty. i love the dialer as well. surprised no one ported it yet

Touchwiz is great. Some people hate the launcher and are misinformed to think the launcher is what lagged out the vibrant. My kb5 vibrant with touchwiz runs great...I love all of the touchwiz features.

Lol I know. Samsung needs to learn how to use proper file systems and they would be alot better off. They finally did with the vibrant 4g, too bad there is ZERO dev interest. I actually owned it for awhile till I realized it was never gonna go anywhere. They barely have a half broken clockwork mod that has not been updated since 4/24 or even a much as an update from the dev about what is going on. Makes me EXTREMELY thankful for our wonderful community.
