[Q] macnut or axura?

what would you guys say on macnut or axura? within smoothness? speed? stability? and so on...

I have used macnut, and that rom is great and comes with alot of features. But currently I am using axura and I really feel it has breathed new life into my phone. Try them both, but for smoothness and stability I wud choose axura.

LOL, I can't stop laughing. If you look at the poll results, Axura's developer, aka Master, voted for "Macnut Fails." LOL, thought that was funny. Wonder if he didn't realize it was a public poll.

Try them both every person has their own likings

At least you are honest. I guess it is competition to be the best after all.

it would be funnier if Axura wasn't such a badass ROM lol.

I think Axura fails for the tmobile themed market.

Macnut is buggier than an episode of Billy the Exterminator. Axura all the way even if he wasn't a local developer

Hey Master, since you are a developer can you answer question I've asked many times but still no answer.
How does one backup their stock kernel and radio/modem.
For example if I flash your Axura ROM, and I decide I want to go completely back to stock 2.1, I can use Nandroid for my ROM right? What about backing up and restoring my stock kernel, radio/modem etc?
thanks!

Axura all the way!

Well you can always do the easiest way, and take a look at what modem & kernel you are using in the settings.. E.g, JI2 Modem = JI2 Kernel
I think TeamWhiskey has a few d/ls with Kernels && Modem packages on there site.
So if there is another way of doing it, then I don't really know.

thanks for the posts guys.. just wanted some advice on the better rom.. I AM currently using axura right now with voodoo and a 1.3ghz OC.. wanting oclf more tho.. but I guess u just gotta get lucky to use oclf on this rom because I have tried installing oclf on my rom 4 or 5 times and it bricks it everytime.. so just gotta deal with voodoo...
but I mainly wanted to kno suggestions about macnut bc iv seen alot of posts saying macnut is better but also seen the same with axura

You should always disable voodoo lag-fix. That's a given. Second of all, I can last about 7 hrs without battery kernal. So once I start configuring everything I will have a better view on that.

Looks pretty good dude...just one suggestion...the black and notification bar doesn't match with the launcher and wallpaper colors.

If it was rude, it was because I was honest and asked for clarification. I welcome all, but if it's a new rom coming, would be cool to know what was done to tweak edt's base.
Also, this was posted multiple times which breaks xda rules, just saying.

this sounds like a great rom , even though i dont use 2.2 roms anymore i use 2.3 most of the time i woudnt mind going backwards to try this out

looks great! keep up the good work

If she's a iPhone fan hand it over with MIUI. If not I would just hand it over with a rooted stock rom. It has all the baby widgets/apps for rookie users and stuff.

She's an avid crackberry fan. I kind of wanted to get her out of the crack state of mind.

I'd have to agree with this - it's a good stepping stone from crackberry to Android. It's easier and more user friendly than a lot of the others.

I may be mistaken, but I am pretty sure the ROM has to have a functioning version of EPST in order to activate. Sprint will re-provision the phone to her account. Once thats done and its activated you can do whatever you please. Might load a rooted stock ROM like that Swagged Out stock.

I figure I'll load that for my daughter when I upgrade in the next few weeks. If she wants something more custom, I'll load something up for her later.

I recommend a sense rom. Mik 2.5 is just perfect
Deck's + SZ + SuperCharger script + ViperMod script.

Thank you all for all the great suggestions. I ended up giving my niece my girl's epic 4g and I gave my girl my evo 4g. I just did a fresh install of the latest MikG rom. The Epic 4g I put the SRF 1.2 which uses Launcher Pro as the launcher. My niece can figure out all the ends and outs of Launcher Pro if she really wanted too.

Give her options and let her pick

Honestly my girl is not like people like us on this forum. She don't care what a rom is as long as it does the basic stuff. If she can check her facebook and twitter plus text and make calls with no lag she is happy.

Thanks for continuing to keep the kitchen going here at XDA.
I am a little spoiled from having 2 years worth of fantastic cooking on XDA for the Nexus One and wish that many of the Thunderbolt chefs would not have left and scattered to a million sites because we lose a sense of a greater community.
Things have quieted down here at XDA since the Bionic launch, but in the long term the Bionic will be just a blip about to be eclipsed by much better phones in a month. I have been really impressed with the progress you have made on the roms for the Thunderbolt and I feel like it will be a long lasting great phone as long as the development continues.
Thank you.

Awesome. Is there anything that can be about the missing Clock App icon in the app drawer? Such an odd bug that seems to be w/ this base.

I've dabbled around with disxda kitchen. Very useful. You might (if not already) check out apktool for decompiling/recompiling apps and .jar files. I was in the process of trying to add custom quick settings to systemui.apk.... But that got a bit confusing for me with smali files and xml editing, so I'm taking a break for a few days and ill give it another go.
Good luck with the ROM bro.

Have you tried pushing the clock app from the .2 base to see if that works, I think I took the one from a while alpha GB release and it worked on the .2 base I've been working with. Just a suggestion.

recommend ROM?

Just finished rooting my Evo 4G for the first time and was wondering about the different ROM available. I haven't rooted since i had my Hero a year ago. I had fresh on my Hero and loved it. However I mainly use launcher pro and wanted to get away from a sense based ROM as I wanted to use full HDMI out and bluetooth HIDS and from last time I heard a bug in sense prevented this..is this still correct?? I was looking toward CM7.
So does anyone have any recommendation to start off with?
Thanks,
-Stephen

Sense does have the broken Bluetooth stacks, yes. So AOSP-wise? Whenever I actually use AOSP, I use MIUI with latest Tiamat kernel. People complain about no 4G and how it looks like an iPhone, but it is so customizable and it has some great devs.
Other than that, I would suggest SalvageMod or Deck's.
MIUI>SalvageMod>Deck's. All with the latest Tiamat.
But I am a Sense guy, so you know.... Full HDMI mirroring works on Sense with latest Freedom and Chopsuey kernel, if you are interested.
And if you need a refresher, check out my guide in my signature. It is written for Sense but it should apply universally.

Thanks everyone,
I'm gonna start w/ CM7 stable. A few quick questions. What would be the best kernel to go with this. Something to increase battery, trickle charging.
Also do i need to flash a radio with this??

I went with Decks. From what I read it is a striped down version of CM7. What are the main differences? whats has been removed?

yea the contact link is the 1st thing i noticed. Don't like it at all but i can deal with it. Main reason I'm going w/ AOSP is to use bluetooth HIDs, as sense doesn't allow this.
