ROM suggestion for Synergy replacement - EVO 4G General

Hey everyone, I've been on Synergy RC1 for a few months now. I think it's great save for some lagging, space issues, and a few connectivity bugs. I've been looking at MikG, Mik3D, Synergy RLS, and CM7. I'm looking mainly for speed, battery life, no crazy default themes (all red/blue text, etc.), and basically everything working (4G, wifi, etc). Possible with any of these or another one I have forgotten?
Thanks for the help!

I would choose mikG

Another for MikG...its my favorite sense rom. Very fast and everything works. Aamikam constantly updates it which is nice. Coiledwire has a very nice theme over on the mikg forums. I'd still be using it if I didn't have the high display usage bug on sense roms that eats my battery.

Thanks for the ideas! If I happened to go out of my comfort zone into AOSP ROMs, which would best fit the qualifications above?

Mikg or classic for sense, and decks for aosp are my choices.

It'll be helpful

MikG!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta say MikG too. I've been using the sense-less version with good luck so far, 2 days off one charge sitting at 40% left with limited use (just texts, a few photos, a few minutes of wind-up knight, mix of WIFI/3G, etc...)

I like Team Nocturnal's Xplod1.3 withTiamat 3.37 kernel, very smooth AOSP

Why not try synergy RLS1. Synergy is my favorite

Synergy RLS1 should have been your choice months ago. It fixed all you said, laggy, and some bugs that were in RC1 and 2. Duh!!
If you want to go ASOP, CM7 is ok. I dont like ASOP, what is the point of having a cutting edge phone like an EVO if you dont run all the bells and whistles of Sense? Kind of counter productive in my view. Sense is what makes an EVO an EVO!!
Good luck. I also run MikG and it is nothing more than Synergy anyway. Has a few more selections on the pull down bar, but other than that, I can see no difference.

Go with Classic! I switched from synergy RLS 1. Its blazing fast!!!

If you don't need 4G give virus' new 3.5 Rom a go.

MikG was a lot faster and stable than Synergy for me. Also the fact that myn has abandoned synergy and that MikG continuously gets updates helped me switch.

CM7 vs all other GB roms, opinions

I have ran evervolv in the past but have been running the latest versions of CM7 for about 4 months, I love all the customization options, but I do get some quirks, and random reboots etc.. occassional lag
I am wondering what you guys would recomend as far the fastest and most stable GB rom
Evervolv? Evo deck? MIUI? etc?

CM7 is ok, kernel that comes with it is horrible though. Nightlies are better than their stable release.
Deck has been extremely stable and I've had zero hiccups with it. Basically identical to cyanogen.
I agree with cares deck is extremely stable I really like it
but I love miui look
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Deck is awesome, much faster/reliable than CM has ever been for me. Though after moving to an area with no 4G I switched to MIUI and I absolutely love it.
Deck's is without question the best for my phone. I've kept it running longer than any other ROM.

Try again.
I'd love to use MIUI but the no 4G on it is a deal breaker Deck's has been a lot faster and stable than CM was for me on my Evo. I'd skip CM all together and just try Deck's if you want an AOSP ROM.
From my understanding Deck's is CM7 with everything stripped out except for EVO specific features/kangs. That may or may not make it faster, I dont know because Ive never used it, but that is my understanding of the difference.
I rock CM7 Nightlties...I get at least 1day 5hrs minimum now...lol
+1 to decks ...Neva had had reboot on it and GPS works flawlessly

Not necessarily true, it is majorly based off of CM7. If you read the post for the deck rom it has other things pulled from other GB rom's as well. It's certainly not just a "renamed CM7" because it works for me a lot better stability wise. He has also fixed a lot of things that CM7 hadn't. Not knocking the CM team whatsoever because we wouldn't have Deck's if it wasn't for them.
What ever helps you sleep at night........
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Just to add my two cents... I run cm7, I enjoy the bloat and custom settings. No, deck is not cm7. A lot of roms use stuff from cyanogen just because he and his team do so much work. However you have to give credit to Deck for his rom being a compilation of his own. Like it was said read the opening post for his rom and you will see.
If you want super clean basic gingerbread that you can do whatever customization you want go with deck. If you want gingerbread that has been tweaked and had included tweaks options go cm7.
I will give props to savaged zen here as well. Very similar to cm7, but not the same! I love the included kernel tweaks, no need for script but less customizable. It is awesome that a Dev would include a custom kernel specifically built around their rom.
Honestly we have such awesome choices for gingerbread and they keep getting better. Try them all and find out which suits your needs best.
EVO 0003, CM7 stable, Tiamat, Vipermod, V6 Supercharger.

to OP:
I've been trying a lot of roms lately too. For AOSP, go with Decks 1.2. Its lightweight, fast and pretty awesome. If you want sense, do a search for Synergy Nightlies and you'll find what your looking for. Another good alternative is MikG 2.0
I've been rocking Deck since the pre release of 1.0. But in the last couple of weeks have been trying out the Sense 2.1+3.0 hybrids. After flashing MikG/Alliance, I haven't really had the desire to go back to AOSP.
I've had CM7 for awhile and today i had an important place to go to but the GPS was so spotty i couldn't get to it and i read this post and decided to flash Decks and i gotta say the GPS works flawless and the stability is just superb.

[Q] Favorite Rom

What is everyone's favorite gingerbread rom with working hdmi, 4g and hotspot? On the latest Fresh build but looking for a change. Also, which roms do you need to partition your sd card for and what is the reason. Thanks for the help.
My favorite Rom that had hdmi was myn warm 2.2. Currently all of the newer roms can't get hdmi because we don't have the new 2.3 kernel for the EVO. Also, you only need to partition of you are going to one of the sense 3.0 roms. I do know that all aosp 2.3 roms have hdmi working, but I'm not a fan of aosp.
Hope I helped.

Synergy's my favorite ROM, but it doesn't have working HDMI (as far as I know). Warm 2.2 is your best bet for Sense with HDMI, but there's tons of stuff on the AOSP side of things.
Synergy is great... No hdmi.

I am fine with the rooting and all that, what Rom should I go with sense 3.0 wise if any thanks.

If you must have sense 3.0, try flashing the evolvedrom r3chargeD... I'm running it and its great, however I am also seeing a lot of people that like the new king ROM.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Do you want it themed or not?
Synergy and MikG are both Sense 2.1 + 3.0. They are probably a couple of the most popular ROMs, if not the most. Quite personally, I like MikG more than Synergy. Feels faster to me, and I've been a big Mik user since I started with my Evo.
Right now I am running EVOlvedROM r3chargeD, which is based on Mik3D, which is based on the HTC Evo 3D. So it is full Sense 3.0, themed and I love it.
Kernel, I use Lithid's Freedom kernel. Aggressive-Freedom Universal.
Links to my setup provided in my signature.
Partition your SD card to offload some weight from the phone itself: DELETES EVERYTHING OFF OF THE CARD SO BACK IT UP.
As far as themed I like the look of stock sense and i'll check those out. how fast is that kernel and what is the safest oc? (i only have my phone till I get home) thanks

Overclock depends on the phone. Some are more picky than others. Personally, I underclock because my phone still flies and it saves me some battery life.

Max safe overclock... the highest shown in SetCPU is 1228800. I overclock while charging (only time I ever do) and usually I put it at 1113600
I have an Evo and a Nexus S on Boost and I love the ASOP roms...I have CM7 and love it on my Evo...just my opinion..
Thanks I'm going to try the mike 3d first. It looks like there are a lot of different options for rooting revoked ect. What do you suggest? And I switched from the nexus s so I could have sense not dissing cm I just love sense and htc.

Energy's latest. I just love it.
As u can see by the large amount of suggestions, all of which are good, its tough to pick one sense rom without considering versions of sense, etc.
My advice.....download a bunch of em. Buy titanium and get familiarized with it. Make sure u use amonra and fully wipe between flashes. Go crazy and flash em all. I don't have an unusual amount of free time or anything and I have tried most of the suggestions here.
It's hard to choose so I have all of these in Nandroid. Right now I'm using Shooter Nightly, its super smooth and pretty good battery life using the anthrax kernel.
Sense 1.0
*Barebones(Stripped down sense rom A+)
*Classic Preview 6(Super smooth)
*SOS Swag on(Super smooth as well)
*Brads 4.67 rooted stock rom(Good for when I want to run a 100% stock rom)
Sense 2.3-3.5
*Shooter Nightly 1.0(Perfect 3.0 sense no complaints what so ever)

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)

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
