I just cant get enough of it! ;-) I have gone through 3 roms and 2 different kernels searching for the ultimate Evo 4G experience!
Thank you so much to the Revolutionary folks and the dev community for first getting a root method and second for creating awesome roms!

I used Chogardjr 4.0 Rom daily for months.His is mikG based also.
But flashed Miui.us 1.8.19 last week and they have gone way beyond an iphone clone the past year.
if you can live without 4G you should try it....NICE VERY NICE

Might have to try MIUI...
I didn't know they had strayed away from just being an iphone clone!! I've been running CM7 nightlies. They're extremely nice, but my area doesn't have 4G.
CM7 was my first, but definitely not my last. I tried almost all of the big ROMs that supported 4G for a while, but in the end it was EVO Deck w/Tiamat 3.3.7 all the way. That was the ultimate combo for me.
I actually love Red Dawn Synergy. I'm glad I got my evo just in time for them to release the ability to root GB.
I rooted back in April and I can't get enough, not sure why it took me so long and I definitely won't go back. I am using Kinged Shooter 2.1 and by far the best one I have used.

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

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!

Warm 2.3 is being tested on the Evo 3D right now, we've got a new Runny Sense 3.5 from Mik and Newtoroot and crew, and there's Bliss somewhere out there being worked on.

Everything I can.....ill pick the best as my daily. Been on mikg for a long time so im sure mik and roots runny will be up there. It will be quite a feat if they get 4G working
Personally, I've been happy with MIUI for the last few months, but I'm starting to look around for something to play with.
Until there's something with the built in customizations and functions that MIUI has though, I doubt I'll make a switch to a different Daily Driver...
I currently have MIUI as main and CM 7 as secondary using boot manager. Tried the new runny and is cool but I am happy with this two.

Agreed on this. This is the only reason I'm not running MIUI. Everytime I flash it, I find a reason that i need to use 4g a couple of days later and end up flashing back to CM7. However, if MIUI gets 4g, I'm hooked.

Not another one.....
Again, there is no "best rom". Everyone has their own opinion, and everyone has different wants/needs in a rom. Since you are rooted, just try out a few. That's the benefit of flashing roms, just make a backup, and if you dont like a new rom, flash another or reload your backup.

I can't get AOKP to run more than a minute (literally) without a random reboot and I have flashed my share of ROMs. Plus last I checked AOKP doesn't have everything working.
Your best bet for stable fully functional ROM is MikG3.0.
I'm liking AOKP but it still has some minor issues (being ICS, it's no surprise). I expect it to be my daily once everything is ironed out.
I'm using a tweaked CM7 for daily use, but I also really like the Mik roms.
I'm using the Ligux port from pspunderground. I'm not really into AOSP that much, but this is a great ROM. Very smooth.

I am tired of flashing back to stock to get prl updates. Any favorite Sense roms? I am running the october 2011 stable release of cm7 and have been since late october without any real issue however my prl is getting really stale so I need to do something in the next week or two.
Edit- I should mention that I am looking for a fully functional daily driver sense rom. I looked through this list http://evo4g.roms-db.com/ and was hoping to narrow it down to one or two that others have tried/liked.
I require 4g radio, gps, 3g data, wifi and wireless hotspot (like cm7)

Even though its all about personal preferences, I was using Rainy Day, which was stable, smooth, and fast...battery life was ok. I'm currently running The Express latest build by OD and his team...awesome rom...very fast, great battery life even with heavy use!, stable, with a ton of space!
The express is a godly ROM, I switch roms a lot and and always find something, with express nothing is ever wrong, constantly updated with perks, and has themed and stock, the devs really know what thier doing, sense based but amazing, I love it so much, that's rare for me to say for a rom

tummy 4g EVO
I'm running a rooted Evo 3d so I don't know much about what goes on here. My wife has finally decided to let me root her phone. What are some good stable ROMs that are a good balance of preformance and speed? Preferably de-bloated. Also is there a preference root method. I'm at work and on my phone so my ability to research is a bit limited for now. Thanks
Well my friend, this is the EVO 4G section, not the EVO 3d section =p but I would say check out team nocturnal and swagstr for roms for the 4g if its what your using.. Usually very stable and fast. If your looking for 3d roms, try team nocturnal also
My wife is using the OG Evo. I'm set on my situation. I was looking into rooting her phone for her. I'll look into Nocturnal.
I would recommend Mikg rom it is completely stable has a lot of themes and amazing support. As for root method it depends on android version. If the phone is 2.3.5 you have to use HTCdev its like hboot 1.5 for the og. If its 2.3.3 you have to use revolutionary.io and check what hboot you have. If 2.2 you have to use unrevoked

I have been running rooted for 5 months and have become very fond of the Cyanogen Mod7.1. this has been very solid and i discover new functionality daily. This make your evo the swiss army knife of phones.
Nitrous
I can't say enough about Nitrous -- running it for a couple months now. The RAM to SDcard feature gives me loads of memory to work with, and the ROM is super fast even considering that the SD RAM probably adds lag time.

You should also partition her sd card to get more space with any rom you use. I'll say MIUI its clean and simple and many many themes.

Oh my I do miss my HTC EVO 4G. I got my first one on January 1st 2011. I drove to my nearest Sprint store hungover to all hell and being able to play with it was probably the only thing that made the hangover better.
Hmm let's see my EVO stats:
Favorite old-school hack:
*I got S-Off using UnrEVOked before it was Revolutionary
Best firmware:
*My best ROM/kernel combo was MikFroYo 4.61 using Netarchy 4.3.4 sbc-cfs-havs-more. I got 34 hours of battery life out of it.
PIcs or it didn't happen right? here's the pic
Favorite Memory:
*I hung out in the #htc-evo-4g channel on freenode for like 18 hours a day. I remember getting to test Myn's Synergy ROM before it was actually released.
Funniest moment:
I was dating someone at the time who was trying to break up with me, but I was flashing a ROM so she wasn't able to get a hold of me. So, she waited another month to do it. I got to bang her several more times before she finally pulled the trigger (she didn't have the guts to do it in person). So, flashing a ROM has actually gotten me laid. I'm with a much better woman now though
Worst moment:
I sold my EVO to Best Buy for $170 in order to purchase the Epic Touch on release day. I should've waited and kept the EVO 4G, I miss it. The great thing is I didn't bother to unhack it first, so when the Best Buy rep saw my custom splash screen, boot animation and that I was running a non-Sense ROM, he didn't ask any questions.
Dumbest moment:
I flashed a kernel that was from a different base than the ROM I was running and I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out why my camera wouldn't work.
Greatest moment:
I had that phone for 11 months before I traded it in, more than twice the time I've spent owning any other Android phone. RIP lil buddy!
