[ Q ] gingerbread rom - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

running royal glacier at the moment on gf's phone but want to upgrade her to a gingerbread rom for things such as gtalk vid. i chose ice glacier and then royalglacier in the first place because it was generally considered pretty stable with good battery
she's out of town and not that android savvy so i need one that is pretty stable that i can just flash and let her use.whether or not it is a dead rom and gets updates isn't really a problem as long as someone can help when there is a problem
so can anyone recommend me one of the more stable gingerbread roms with gtalk video?
looking at virtuous fusion and royalginger at the moment

I'm currently using Genration-X v4. It seems stable enough. No major bugs that I've noticed.

just checked the latest and he removed gtalk vid due to some bugs

My vote-Faux 123's aosp rom...

RoyalGinger 3.0. Fast, stable, no bugs that I have found at all and it supports gtalk over 3g and 4g. She will not be disappointed.

thanks for the input

anyone else?

since skype now supports mytouch 4g with video i really dont see any use of gtalk video thatmuch.
remember new skype from market supports video on almost all ffc phones.

Some people might happen to like sense (not one of them but the reviewers sure seem to love it)
Let me ask you this. What is not working on that rom?

Not sure if it is or not but I can tell you it runs 10 times smoother....
WiFi is buggy when trying to connect to a secured network, 4G does not work, battery is the same as every ROM, if you use all the features and apps that came with the phone it Sucks, They all Suck.

I've been using this ROM for a few days, I'd tried the CM Nightly builds and I always come back to Decks ROM. None of them are 100% but they both are solid, I just prefer Decks, I also prefer a Sense ROM.
the battery on Deck's is def better
and it's way less buggy. I know CM6 is just a nightly but if you're looking for a Froyo rom that has camera available I recommend Deck's
the biggest bug is that the LED does not work at all. Also I am getting awful scores in quadrant with it.
pick your poison I guess
I am still having WiFi problems on secured networks.
Sent on my cursed EVO
anyone else tried this ROM yet??? Feedback??
Well, on that note... Baked Pastries isn't th at bad... It seems to have a lot of things going for it as well...
I used both cm6 nightly and Deck. I lean towards Deck for the sense. Both are great though. Deck is an excellent chef coming over from windows mobile. He is top notch.

Best myTouch 4g Rom

What's the best mytouch 4g rom right now? Ive tried all the obvious ones; iced, cyanogen, muiu, hd sense. Just wondered if there was something else out there, something better, or different. Getting a little bored with the obvious, like to test new things.
Any thoughts?

think your only option would be to wait until the devs get honeycomb or liquid metal going for our phone
Ice is good~~Without the sound of Camara so you can do some evil things~

I digging it too. Had to switch the font, but otherwise, TB is hella responsive. We'll see how the battery life is after a full drain and recharge.
IMO Its all about preference. You gotta ask yourself if y like stock android or sense (among other overlays)
Personally. I havent experienced a rom smoother than Ice Glacier yet. I was surprised since CM7 was less than half the size but smoothness was way behind Ice. IMO Sense roms are more optimized for our chipsets since thats what HTC works on most so im Sense all the way
It really is all personal preference. Especially with a phone like this with so many options the differences in performance are going to be nominal. I personally love CM so that's what I am running. There are people that love sense and there are ROMs out there for that. A better thread for you would have been things you are looking for and we could suggest the best ROM suited for your needs.
is it me or has rom production almost come to a halt. i mean with GB ready to go whats the deal? or are all the devs working on HC and done with GB

Well as you know Sense based rom specially IG is not actually full rom as it just modified and comparing to current CM7(AOSP2.3.X:GB) its 1/3rd of the port size. But as IG heavily depends on Sense based framework it will be little smoother but you can make CM7 smooth also IDK what people talking about it lags as if I even run at 368mhz(max)/245(min)/ondemand (gov) I get NO lag.

Thats the beauty of AOSP and we are thankful so who cares what Google is doing maybe by next year HTC will port Sense based on 2.3 and we just got AOSP2.3.3 port last night on CM7NB11.
my fave so far is jaywans nexus s gingerbread rom. it's pretty smooth and everything works. I wanted to try his thunderbolt port but I kinda got tired of sense
is CM7NB11 in rom manager??

Last I heard the CM updater for Rom Manager Premium wasnt updating for some reason but it could be fixed by now. That was yesterday. Unfortunatly I only have the free version and it only allows for DL of CM7 RC1 so i cant confirm if the other is working again.
Lol that's what he was talking about? How hard is it to grab the current build from CM repository, it takes just 1 sec. I have cURL.d setup on my server it grabs it automatically within 1min as I set the eCrawler auto updated every min.

I just finished an update for it taking it from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 is fast smooth and great on battery. I sent it to royal night so he can put his touches on it so i will be ready real soon.
Really depends on how you want to style your phone. Do you like Sense? Do you want a vanilla flavored rom?
I love CM7.

+1 / with carlos2384 ... Jaywan's Nexus S is hands down my favorite ROM so far on this device. Jaywan - udaman! I'm pumped about v2.2 for Nexus S !!
...I did just flash the new Liquid Metal port (RoyalLiquid) and it's quiiiiiite interesting and unique....since it appears it's froyo based, I'm not sure it's gonna steal my heart long term from the Nexus S ROM but at least for now, it's REALLY nice to have options!! (especially when they're as cool as this)
Thanks again Jaywan, Royalknight6190, and TeamRoyal !
I am currently trying ThunderBolt. I like it. I came from Iced which was giving me all sorts of funny business.

[Q] MyTouch 4G Rooted. What ROMs are good out there?

Hi,
Well, i finally rooted my phone, after 5 dyas of dealing with the things, diferent ways, etc.
Now, I would like to know from you all guys, what ROMs are good out there. What do you all recomend me to try.
I already have Cyanogen on my little old G ( version 6 ) And it looks pretty cool.
Any suggestion? i want a stable ROM where i can Install the apps without problems, or having any kinda of signal problem, or networks ( g, 3G, HSPA) problems
Thanks for your Suggestions!
Daniel
If you like sense, evil d's virtuous fusion. I use to hate sense roms but I've been rockin it as a d'd for a while now. Battery life was horrible at first but with faux's low voltage kernel and juice defender, I've gotten surprisingly good battery life. Sense 3.0 features are elegant and functional. Way faster and stable than any other sense roms I used.
I use royal ginger for aosp Rom. Phenomenal battery life speed and stability.

The point was people can give opinions, but you won't know what works for you until you try it yourself. He/she can listen to a suggestion just to found out they don't like it and flash another.
^^ That should have been obvious without me having to elaborate.
I switched to meXdroid a couple days ago and love it. It's really fast, battery is good looks great and everything works ( except your upside down in the front facing camera) but I can live with that. You can also download it through Rom Manager
It really depends what you are looking for.

I've rocked eViL DEE's Sense 3.0 ROM, RoyalThunder and Cyanogen.
I always go back to CM7Nx. But then again it's easy for us to put what we like on your phone. You should invest in Titanium Backup and explore the ROMs for your self like Donny P mentioned to begin with.

New stable room?

Which is now best custom room for hero tnx
It's hard just to say one rom. There's lots of good roms depending if you want sense, froyo, gingerbread, etc.
Personally I use Tegro 2.6 but I would like to install SalsaSense if the sms bug is fixed.
ok tnx man

I didn't update to 3.5 yet but at 3.0 I still have trouble with sms. I get them but I don't get any notifications about them even though they are enabled.
For me Elelinux GB 3.1 is the more stable AOSP ROM for the moment.
SalsaSense is still laggy sometimes but i'm sure it will be better soon because dev did a really good job on each update
I'm currently using Elelinux-7.1.0-RC1-Hero-v3.1, its running Android 2.3.5 and runs very slick on my phone. I like the looks of SalaSense though, waiting for everything to be smoothed out in a future release to install though.

Good ROM to try out?

hey guys iv been rooted since day 1 and iv been on KINGS ROM since day 1 as well!
but i want to get off of kings rom and try out new stable rom. what are the good ones out there?
If you never use your 4G, then MIUI is the ROM for you. It's fast, stable, and energy-efficient despite all the "bugs" people ramble about. It's also very customizable and updates every Friday to ensure you always get the latest versions and bug fixes.

I can't wait to get my hands on a stable ICS rom. It will just give us EVO owners that much more shelf life.
Question, I know there is an Alpha for ICS in the works right now. Do the developers already have everything they need to develop the rom or does a phone like the Galaxy Nexus which will have ICS stock have to come out first?
As for a good current rom, I'm running Mik 2.61, very clean, stable and great battery life. It's a Sense rom, different themes are available.
