Good Froyo ROMs? - EVO 4G General

I've only seen MikFroyo, but is like to browse more Froyo Roms. I'm on GB and up to date radios, would that be a problem for going back?

No problem at all. As always just make sure you do a full wipe before flashing.

Warmtwopointtwo is a good rom

Warm 2.2, konikubs elite series 3, mikfroyo are my 3 favs.

Everything virus did on froyo was awesome. Especially his airborne roms. And there's an Add_Sense zip that adds an awesome themed sense 1.0 (blue, black and silver-ish)
Froyo had way better batter life than GB, it seems to me.

are there ANY Roms that support 4g?

Hi finally rooted my phone only to discover that the cyanogen mods dont support 4g!!! I use 4g all the time so this is serious to me.
Is there another rom that can give me my 4g back?
Or should I just restore my Sense ui?
The problem with that latter is that my sense ui was buggy, making my phone slow and the keyboards almost useless.
Is there an alternative Sense UI rom that might perform better?
Thanks
I use mikefroyo

an amazing rom, very very fast.
Try this CM rom. It has 4G but its still in beta: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902051
mikions are as bad as mynions, surprised no mynjas have chimed in
Any Sense ROM will have 4G unless the ROM developer is a complete failure. Right now for non-Sense the only option I'm aware of is the CM6-WiMax mod posted above. It looks like if things keep developing as fast as they have been there's a strong chance CM7 will have it built in when the final release hits.
i hope you backed up your rsa keys
Myn's Warm 2.2 RLS5 has 4G and is wonderful.

If someone asks for recommendations on what rom to use, why are people "bad" for suggesting the rom they prefer, themselves? I have nothing against any rom, but none I have used runs as well as mikfroyo. Since the 3.70 update, I have used: vaelpak, fresh, myn's, one of the evoKings roms, cm6.1.2, cm wimax alpha, a few of the GB roms, and mikfroyo. Of all of these, none ran as smoothly as mikfroyo. My hwv is 0004, my original swv was 3.29, and I have the .97 hboot.
My Warm TwoPointTwo RLS5 and MikFroyo 4.4 are the heavy favorites in these forums (hence that comment about Mikians and Mynjas). I use both, back and forth, they both have their ups and downs. Myn's is prettier, Mik's is faster. Both have all the function that stock has (4g, hdmi, etc).
As a previous poster said, all Sense roms will have it, but Mik and Myn have the 2 most popular ones.

Bickering aside, a quick perusal of the CM6 dev threads shows only a handful of posts in March, and none in April. So, I will make the assumption that most people have moved on to CM7.
After all, if you've taken the dive and flashed a custom ROM like CM, you're probably not likely to stick with 'outdated' software.
If someone is going to use 2.2, it would be FR008 or Liberated 2.2.2.
Sent from my Liberty
I am. I really like what I've seen of the CM7 nightlies so far, but will continue to use CM6 until GPS is fixed and working. I don't consider either the ROM flash-workaround or the new libs with the broken navigation to be fixes.
I am because of the cosmetics mainly. I Hate the black color schemes on 7. My Battery drained 4 hours faster from normal use. And there is nothing I want in cm7 that isn't in cm6.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
I'm still on cm6 because:
Runs smoother,
Better battery,
Looks better,
And for some reason, I can flash alternate/custom window animations on cm6 and not on cm7.
I just went back to CM6. It's the lightest, fastest, smoothest and most efficient ROM for the Aria. Literally, it's how the Aria was meant to operate. CM7 is disappointing.
going back to cm6 for stability and battery life.
Just gonna apply my gingerbread theme.

What is the best ROM ?

I was thinking about flashing some sense 3.0 or 3.5 but I wanna no way u guys think is the most stable ROM
Sent from my Droid Incredible 3D using xda premium
Personally the Sense ROM's are too laggy for my taste. I run CM7 and then load on a bunch of customizations to make it look hella awesome
I'll agree with u on that one, but the taste on sense 3.0 and 3.5 is awesome. it runs ok for me, its not too laggy tho
Sent from my Droid Incredible 3D using xda premium
The best way to find the best rom for you is to make a nandroid of your current setup and try whatever rom you are interested in. Because what some people might find to be the best rom here you might not like. Its all based on taste. I will say this, if you want speed and battery life go aosp. If you want pretty widgets and can put up with lag go sense.
Yea I'm down with sense

Wildstang's roms have always been solid for me. I would recommend his 3.0 Rom based on the desire hd, it is optimized for a single core device with WVGA resolution so it is just as smooth as our OTA. Battery life is pretty amazing, I get about a full day out of the stock battery with moderate use. That's from about 6:30 am to about 6:00 pm with about 20% left at the end of the day. If you chose his rom, I would wait until vfour drops tonight or tomorrow morning to flash so you don't have to start all over after you set everything up.

Im running Nil's current 3.5 sense Rom. I haven't tried any kernels with it yet.
I've flashed CM7, MIUI, Gingersense...etc. Personally, you just have to try what's best for you.
I'm loving the 3.5 sense with 3D movement. I don't think I'll go back after this ROM. I've tried Nils and Newt. Both are very similar. But very awesome.
I prefer Nil's. Nil's rom + tiny's kernel ftw

Geeze... I've gone through so many ROMs on that dInc in the last 2 days I can't keep them straight. If I'm right, that's the same ROM I slapped on there last and it's working like a dream. It seemed like an honestly finished piece of work. I'm so happy not to be dealing with that butterfaced CM7 anymore. No offense to the devs, but two things really irked me a little in looking for ROMs. First, names and OPs that didn't describe what the ROM was. Second, no mention in the OP of major known issues... like a camera that FC's after every pic??? And I saw one that didn't even have a download. Instead it pushed you off to Rootzwiki. Kinda goofy, I thought. Don't even ask me to point fingers because I wouldn't even if I could. Frankly, I don't remember anything I flashed except that last one... because it worked and I liked it. The others got a 5 minute interview and didn't get the job and were promptly forgotten.
I can't mess with the 3.x roms to choppy/laggy. I think the 3.0 ports show just how outdated our hardware is. Ive just been rollin with the 2.3.4 GB release. The speed and battery life is great.

I've gotta represent for Jermaine. I'm running InSensitive Minimalist 2.3.1 right now and it is great, very fast, smooth, stable. Basically the OTA with all of the bloat and more removed, including the Rosie launcher.
Why not just go AOSP, you might ask? Well, I feel like the Inc just runs better with the Sense framework, and I'm a sucker for the Sense apps, Mail, Camera, Music, Gallery, People. That ROM is the best of both worlds, IMHO.
I've tried a few Sense 3 ROMs, and they were a lot of fun...but they ultimately felt like an awkward fit.
But here's the bottom line...there is no *best* ROM. There are a lot of options, especially on this phone, and you have the freedom to find the one that best suits your needs and preferences. That is the beauty of Android, of XDA, and of the many great Devs.
So...happy flashing and much respect to all the Devs.

ROM suggestion for Synergy replacement

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.

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...)

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!!!

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)
*Vins Original RCMix3D Runny 1/24(Super smooth for being a sense 3.5 rom
*Radiance RC5 (Really good rom it keeps getting better and better with each update)
