SuperROM (for the semi-experienced and the brave of heart) - EVO 4G General

I have no Dev experience
I try different ROMs daily, from Cyanogen to Virus to ACS (Koni, Kings, thanks to you all) and back: I'm wondering if the best of these Dev's lifework couldn't be combined?
Here's what I'd love to see-
The performance of ACS meets the asthetics and tweakage of Cyanogen meets something entirely different from Sense (I like the Synergy v3.5 best, myself) and throw in free Mobile Hotspot for good measure.
Wish I had an input on Kernals and recoverys, just never studied up.
I can only hope a Dev stumbles upon this thread and cooks something up. All I can say is, as a Sprint employee, I know the phones. I'll help if I can, simply looking to get something started.
Post your hearts out, especially if you have ROM suggestions

As a Sprint employee, you might want to be careful about what you post on here, specifically "free hotspot" and other things Sprint does not condone of it's employees.

You would be surprised at how involved Sprint is with people that post on forums, facebook, myspace, youtube, etc. I myself have been talked to by corporate security already.

I worked for t-mobile for 4 years in the past and I leaked pics, info all kinds of ish and I never got caught lol. I guess it depends on how you go about it. Of course when I did work for tmobile its not like they would find out dirkyd3rks's true identity anyways. I was just smart about it, always 1 step ahead.

...have you tried VaelPak yet?

I liked Vaelpak, except for the bat life. Didn't try any of the new versions tho.

Half my customers ask me to root their devices, most everyone within my company under 30 have rooted; people know about this stuff without even really knowing what goes into it. What can Sprint do to me when their are hundreds of YouTube vids posted showing how to root and which Rom is good, etc? These companies may be watching, but can't do a thing about it. Like Big Brother Lite haha

I got excellent battery life on VaelPak, and it's the first thing that came to mind when I read the OP. Performance is on par with with any other ROM and has all the customizability you could ask for.
On any of the more popular ROMs, battery life should be good unless an app is misbehaving or the kernel isn't playing nice (imho).

What can they do? Exactly what moto is... encrypt the boot loader.

I am uncertain what this thread is?
A req for a ROM he'll love?
A req for "the best parts of all the ROMs he loves, cooked together in some unspecified vague manner, bug free and working for him"?
Frankly, if I was a dev here, I would be kinda... insulted.
(lol, as a "sprint employee", perhaps then you could Give a dev or two a phone of their choice, that might inspire them. )

I can't be fired from a company I don't directly work for. Especially considering I'll be of almost no use to a Dev and have yet to "leak" anything

Assuming your handle stems from personal experience and not some hypothetical situation, I would expect a more liberal approach to "following the rules" so to speak. If Sprint is too busy paying people to surf Xda for people like me "hypothetically" instead of pouring money into Clearwire and the WiMax network, then we can basically kiss nationwide 4G goodbye

Of course it does. The EVO has flash and um, um, well that's really the only connection I see here.
Actually there are more connections when you really think about it. These devices run on batteries. They have memory. There considered electronics. I can go on and on......
You see, when you use your imagination you can come up with so many things that link this to the EVO!
I am going to go and start another thread here comparing 3d TV's. Imagine all the relationships to the EVO there!

You are missing the point everyone is trying to make. You are clogging the general section with garbage that really has nothing to do with the evo. There is an off topic section that is accessible from the main forum (I believe that's where it is). I think your threads would be more appropriate there.

Innovation?? More like a need. Apple decided to take off flash favoring HTML5, unfortunately a very significant amount of websites still use flash and there is no incentive to make the switch to the new format. I guess Jobs got pissed that he could not access many websites that were flash enabled and decided that it was needed to put it back. There no innovation on this.

I won't agree on this. As stated by myself and others: we see these already. If they are not "HTC Evo 4g" related they do not belong here. Even if they are related they are not necessary. It is nice to get a discussion going from time to time but it makes it really hard to sift for ACTUAL news when you post so much of this stuff.

His kernel thread was closed due to a lack of source being provided, in order to keep the site compliant with the law. Some jerk took that to mean he was banned or punished or in some way unwelcome at XDA, which is false. The OP deserves a nice temp ban for having such a glaring attitude towards the administrators here at XDA who are doing their best to keep this site running. But, for someone with one post, I can't see that doing any good. Best to just ignore the troll till the admins remove this thread.

That actually seems reasonably fair... Everyone is angry at Acer for doing that, I don't see why Thor should be held to a different standard. Having said that, his kernel was great... I hope he comes back and plays according to the rules.
With any luck this was all a big misunderstanding, and he just hadn't started a GIT yet but was about to, or something like that.
I mean his kernel was up a few days only, you couldnt have given him some more time to explain or something?
This is the guy that got Clockwork for EVERYBODY for ****s sake...
And its impossible to put a price tag on how important it is.

As I say, let's just hope this was all a big misunderstanding. Thor was asked for his source a few times in that thread, and he never responded to those requests publicly. I don't know what happened behind the scenes though, as you say. Perhaps a mod can clarify?
Of course they would... They ban all the best devs over stupid $h*t. Android is "open source" but now we say he was banned for not including source? Thanks conan keep up the great work...

Please post the C&D if it REALLY was a legal thing
Seriously? Because he hasn't had time to post the source up? Really?
This isn't anything new even here on XDA, and as far as being legally compliant, show us the cease and desist order, please. In any event that's no cause to get a poster banned and XDA had plenty of occurrences on significantly less open platforms where they didn't ban the poster, but locked the content due to C&Ds.
Thor did significant amounts of work here to get us what we want. Acer and pretty much 100% of corporate industries are limited to what they can do or say because of much greater liability of what they produce. One user/fan/coder posting here not so much liability as none of it is anywhere near official.
So, again please post the C&D
Even if he was being a total jackass and blurted out obscenities AT mods, a temp ban would all that it would warrant.
CONANTROUTMAN banned him or CONANTROUTMAN is in charge of mods overdoing their job?
Who banned him?
This is crazy about one month ago we didn't have recovery, Then Thor arrived and fixed that he is very important to the development of the a 500, Lets hope this is temporary, Without devs like Thor we get nowhere on our devices, I have seen in the past when devs have fights with mods the devs leave for good. Its almost like they get jealous of the work they do.

Goodbye

I have really appreciated all the hard work all the developers have done for the epic since I have purchased it in january. I really appreciated Ptfdmedics Roms, in response to that I will share Autism Awareness with the my Incredible 2 community by adding his banner to my Sig. I really did learn a lot from you guys, since I got my epic, I have worked on my fiance's old G1, her current hero, and my best friends EVO. Each one was a challenge in its own respects, and I couldnt have done it without you guys.
I just posted my Epic on Ebay, and will be getting the Incredible 2 here shortly. I am sad to be leaving sprint, but excited to be seeing the quality difference in coverage verizon supposedly has. I am not excited about my bandwidth limitations, since we missed the date for the unlimited amount.

I could write like five or six of these. I have come extremely close to trading this phone off for a shift or an evo. The first couple of times it didn't happen was because the deals fell through. Later on I figured out that i would lose voodoo and that gave me pause. Then EF02 came around and fixed most of my problems.
What later insured that i would stay were Anonymous rom i3 which gave my phone a new lease on life and worked great in almost every way. Lastly, independent tests showed the epic's radio is only slightly worse than most phones and doesn't have major issues like the evo3d and nexus s. I just have bad sprint service in my area.

I sure hope that the Incredible 2 penny sale lasts till tomorrow or Wednesday so I can still place my order, am waiting for my epic to sell or get at least a bid before I purchase my new phone and service.
Also, can someone pm the code to add the Autism Awareness banner to my signature? If not no problem, ill figure it out.

^^This all day. I have absolutely no problem if someone chooses to leave for other pastures, don't really have any problem with someone who posts about it if/when they do so in the respectful and humble manner the OP did though I myself if it were me would just be gone and leave it at that.
The only issue I ever have with those who say 'goodbye' is those who leave and take the opportunity on their way out to gripe, moan and complain about everything the phone isn't/wasn't for them or everything else negative under the sun and even worse in some cases basically try and tell the rest of us that we're a bunch of ignorant sots for not packing our bags and moving on too. The OP did nothing remotely like that and deserves respect & kudos for the above board manner in which he's moving on rather than flaming (which is against the rules anyway, but its unjustified regardless in this case).

CM7 Release Candidate soon? (Purely Speculation!)

In the official post for CyanogenMod 7 it says
"There are many devices still in beta status (Pyramid, Doubleshot, Shooter, HP Touchpad, Optimus 3D, several more) that we will be promoting to release or release-candidates in the next few weeks when the code is merged to our main branch."

Now this is purely speculation as the title says so if anyone gets disappointed when it doesn't happen.
Now i could be looking at this completely wrong so feel free to call me a dumb ass if i am wrong.

The CM7 project for the Atrix is not being developed by official Cyanogenmod. Just stay tuned to the google code page and follow twitter accounts.

Once its in RC don't they give it to the official team for merging? that's what i thought happened from my understanding.

That's from the official Cyanogenmod site, which has no affiliation with the development of CM7 for the Atrix.
Yeah, but the current team is responsible for making the atrix compatible with cm7 (thus, they're doing most of the work). Once that's done, they'll be giving it to the official team so they can support it.

I'm pretty sure the dev team has said all they need to do is get the fingerprint scanner and webtop working then they can submit it to cyanogen mod to try and get official status, since before cyanogen will accept any port it must not break any functionality that the stock rom had

This is probably a huge factor along with the massive number of idiots who fail to read directions properly and end up with bootloops and blame the dev's for making faulty software.

These same trolls do not take a mere breath to stop and say thank you to the devs that work hard for free. No one has EVER promised them anything, but they complain like it is the devs duty to please them. Somedays I wish I were back in the Aria forum because the community was very helpful and the devs felt welcomed.
FYI good find OP!

Since you still don't realise what the word "troll" actually means, let me clarify for you.
A troll is someone who posts inflammatory extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
ie the very people you are complaining about are not, in fact, trying to provoke people, but rather are just uninformed people asking for help. In fact, you are the one closer to a troll then they are since you keep insulting them instead of directing them to the right answer, potentially provoking them into an outlash of anger.

Sadly I don't think they'll be having Webtop on Cyanogenmod. Last I heard it was too much work.
if cm7 allowed me to play my movies from my phone on tv when i am away from home i would be on it like a fat kid on a smartie!

We dont sit here and update or post all day because its un needed, exhausting on its own, and frusterating to the point of cursing. I can once a week come to this thread and after going through 20+ pages find maybe one thing worth replying to, like this time and the gentleman that requested a few pages back that i call this kang and not official ?!? Why because we have waited till we deemed ready to merge ? Everything we released has been stable and useable i have not touched another rom in months, we will merge shortly, it will be up todate 2.3.7 or what ever uptodate is than. We are all running 2.3.7 curently , there has not been another release because IOO there has not been enough added fixes that we felt the need to do so yet. Mostly we have been waiting on FP. I have it working 100% fine actually better than stock, but it haz created a bug with calls when enabled for an unknown reason. I have been working on the same bug for over 2 weeks . Once again iwasted more time i could have spent on the bug to reply to those of you that felt i needed to "give updates" to a 170 page hell hole where no one reads in the first place Anyhow we appreciate your all excited , so are we , mostly so we can stop working keep in mind we want itcompleted and working obiously more than you do so either relax and wait or keep yelling inhere like a jakaninny IDGAF, but i will post updates when i am ready as will the other team members. End of story

+1 Good thread sparksco! I'll see if I can donate the one that broke my fall. Need to see if I can work some magic to do so.
I'd love to see lithid dev for the Shift but has there been any indication that he's at all interested?

I'm not sure how busy he is with his other projects now that he's joined the cm team, but we could at least get salvagemod or some other ports perhaps. I for one want salvagemod even if it is just gingerbread. I've tried to port it but well, I'm just not him...I've emailed him but I think he's interested even though I have not heard a response yet. And salvagemod does have it's own nightlies. Who knows, he could bring more then just salvagemod, but I'm not going to jump the gun and start expecting things right away.

I'd donate at least 20 to get him over here but only if he wants to and people are committed to getting him to the shift side

Well like I said I still have yet to hear anything back from him. What would you say if someone offered you a free phone? And if we do get him a shift no one can expect anything. We can hope for the best I guess. I will even help port/compile salvagemod if need be and contribute to the projects as much as possible. I think that is what it really comes down to. Who wants salvagemod and is will to help contribute to it by at least providing logcats? I mean seriously all I ever see in the forums is people complaining but never offering anything usefull. If I'm the only person then I doubt he will want to do it...

Yeah i'd take a free phone if people were willing to donate to me. Salvagemod does seem good and i'm glad your willing to help, I've always appreciated what you've done with the shift and if i knew anything about logcats and knew how to provide them i would if anyone needed them but my computer skills are very little in the coding department as i got kicked out of college but i'm all for him coming over and trying to help out as much as possible

lol now all i have to do is set up ADB on my computer. New HDD and never set up anything for android
So I just want to share an opinion, don't take this as hating because I'm not I respect lithid like I do any developer.
That being said, I don't see the point.
First off your main argument is that he COULD bring SalavageMod.
Why do we need it in the first place? It would just clutterup our threads with another AOSP ROM. We have plenty (Cyclonic,CM7,Evervolv,Shiftdeck). As far as I know it is not our goal to be cluttering up the shift forums with countless ROMS that are basically the same with different themes
Second of all is the obvious point other people have made. Does he even WANT to. Yes, he would be a worthy person to donate a device to just based on previous expierence from him, but if he isn't as interested as other people what's the point. You just made the assumption that he would, you even said he has not replied, so until then I think this should be put on hold.
These are just my points,

Salvage mod is not your standard cm7 alike... Get a clue before you waste space on a thread with dumb uninformed comments... But that's right you call yourself a dev so why don't you compile salvage mod or any rom for that matter? Because you can't... Just my two cents...

Why did you have to be such a jerkoff??? He was just stating his opinion and as such, you would THINK that people would act like a MAN instead of a little child. Your abrasive comment was not needed nor was it called for. Now I'm starting to see why people are leaving XDA, people don't know how to act correctly.

Don't let one person get to you for many people (including myself) appreciate your work.
Yes he was stating his opinion just like drob was. He is right about salvagemod, but that is no reason to try to discredit salvagemod or say that we don't need more roms. What's wrong with more roms? It's a aosp rom that has very little cm stuff in it. It doesn't matter now anyways, we will not be getting salvagemod and I am not at liberty to say why. I can say people attacking is not helping devs stick to xda.
