Video ROM Overviews

I was thinking of putting together some quick video previews of the major custom ROMs floating around. Any requests as to which ones you'd like to see or think would be good to demo? It will mostly be a quick look at what each system looks like after a fresh flash, UI, menus, features of each ROM, what have you. Any input greatly appreciated!

I like this idea. Personally, I'd like too see UI overviews, a breakdown of what's been added removed, and a benchmark of some sort. (Yeah, I know, basically everything you mentioned).

Dash from SPJ does a lot of ROM reviews for the EVO as well as the HTC Touch I think.
http://www.youtube.com/user/iamdasht19

um... all the ROMs do basically the same and almost all of them are on the stock rosie. You can see what's different in each ROM just by reading the ROMs initial thread.
this would be a waste of time

I disagree. I'm new to the evo, and to android in general. The custom rom threads frequently seem to assume you are already familiar with the rom. I've seen a lot of changelogs, that explain what is new since the last version, but that doesn't help if I've never run the previous version.
I'm currently running fresh, mostly because I had no idea which one to pick. It's been working great, so I'm in no hurry to switch, but I am wondering what I might be missing with another rom.
I think this is a great idea. With the recent news about record android sales, there will be a lot of folks coming to the evo without previous android experience. This series of videos will help them a lot.

Then I'll get started today! First on the block will be stock, Fresh 3, and CM6.
Infamousjax, you don't have to watch them.

Me neither....good newbie thread tho

Good idea, as a newbie ill definitely watch. Is bugless beast going to to be featured?

If you request it, I'll flash it.

That ROM hasn't been updated in forever (There isn't even a 2.2 port or anything).

I think bugless gave up on the evo due to ungreatful users

[ROM] NYMERIAN ROM and!... Nymeriasense updated 8-23

NYMERIASENSE...
http://www.multiupload.com/LOADKH92DO
SENSE ROM IS BASED OFF TH3ORYS CL3ANTH3ORY 1.2 .
REMOVED A LOT OF APPS AND WIDGETS, CHECK IT OUT FLASH ADDICTS.
ALL BELOW RELATES TO AOSP ROM, LABELED NYMERIA 1.6 ON MULTIUPLOAD
NEW ROM OUT AGAIN, DAY I GET HOME FROM VACATION. BUILT OFF SLAYHERS CM7 RELEASE, 1.6.1
LOTS OF MINOR FIXES A FEW CLEAN UPS, SAME BASIC IDEA
sound is loud, flash works out of the box, gps and wifi are fine
the thanks dont change much; i couldnt do it without all people below and more.
extra thanks to droid theory again for answering stupid questions from a stupid person
nerozehls 2.6 dream kernel is baked in
some of theorys ram tweak
same theme
new market
a few extra apps to keep it stable and functioning
most of below still applies. enjoy the rom guys! feedback, bugs, etc.; please list so i can work on it! going on vacation in two days so no new release for at least a week. it will be nice to not flash a rom 10 times a day for once
THIS IS AN AOSP ROM!!!
I use the 704 radio; it works for me. If it doesn't for you, oh well, try another. (NOT 100% FUNCTIONAL, IM CURRENTLY EXPERIMENTING WITH ALL RADIOS
Thanks to DroidTh3ory. and Slayher for the 2.3.5 build
and again. and again and again. and again and again and again.
and thanks to the cyangenmod team, and chingy for the radio, jcase for everything. slayher, imoseyon, viperboy and nerozhel
and all the other developers I dont know but helped get us everything we have and the ones I've failed to mention by name.
thanks to fixxxer2008 for some theme images and ideas
same to zhp pilot, and debian dog
droid pirate for icons
bp328i for theme help.
And DroidTh3ory again, and slayher, and nero, to be thorough
This is more designed for me than a community, but am sharing in case it fits anothers fancy
So its AOSP.
I removed most live wall papers. I dont use them
moved maps and terminal and to data/app, and added a few like youtube, titanium back up, and google sky map (people dont pay enough attention to the stars; heres your chance)
its themed out the wazoo. i spent the most time on that and thats where most of the contributions also come in. its blue, cyan, black, and a lot of high res icons
build.prop is slightly tweaked, memory management is all DroidTh3orys work, I dont know enough about it all to alter and keep it all working
I highly recommend using ADW EX. its simply amazing.
So far the only 'issue' I see is that the battery meter won't animate/move while charging. I need a beer so bad that I'm not working on that any further today.
Feedback and "Thanks" are appreciated, but all real credit and such go to DroidTh3ory. Any questions, fill the thread.
Mirror it if you'd like, but I doubt that many will be clogging up the servers.
enjoy!

Nice. Any chance that someone can start a thread on how to create your own ROM. What tools to use, what to read and how to properly ask for help. I would love to create my own as well since as soon as I install any rom i liposuction the bloat out add better apps and utilities.

i wish i would have had one these.. its more of a 100 thread process. but not that hard. tedious to start. i use the android kitchen to put it all together. 7zip to really get into the files. gimp or pixlr to alter images, and search for a lot of icon packs and such. it'd be a long thread with a lot of detail, lot of links, lot of screenshots. check out the android kitchen first is my suggestion

I hear that phrase thrown around alot "android kitchen". What is it and how do I go about using it?

[kernel] gingerbread sense WANTED will donate to make happen.

Recently htc released the source code to make it possible for gingerbread sense kernels. I am trying to push the development community by offering a small donation to push it to happen. I would also like to extend this help with other xda members that would help donate to make it happen. So if you want this to happen post here stating you'll donate to the developer that makes it happen first.

Oh, I though he was talking about opensense because he said release by HTC. But that could work I suppose. Maybe this will fix the sense kernel issues

I know. I wish they would open up applications again. I think I help out and contribute enough, but you never know with XDA. Lol. Even more that you and Nils were denied recognized developer status which is such a shame. I would be happy to help moderate in any forum, but the DInc and Eris forums are my home. Maybe they'll open up applications again soon.

for any dev that might work on this, if possible can you please include the following features:

- GPU +
- Smartass governor
- HAVS and/or sysfs
I.e.: the features that make incredikernel so damn awesome these features... or rather, lack thereof, are why I am still stuck on Froyo, as awesome as some of the 2.1/3.0 gingersense ROMS are...

If your staying on froyo because of those, your missing out. The leaked kernel is pretty good, the roms are awesome.

I ran Synergy for a while.... loved the ROM... but yeah, I'm one of the few who actually uses the multitouch (play a ton of Genesis and GBA on my phone). GPU + made a huge difference for 3d graphics framerates, smartass was a noticeable increase in battery life. On my custom Froyo ROM with incredikernel, the phone is rock solid stable, fast, smooth, everything works, and I can go WEEKS without a freeze, lock up, reboot, battery pull, etc.....
I don't feel like I'm missing out THAT badly, but, yeah once a custom kernel that does all that comes out, Synergy ROM here I come.

tiny that would be awesome if you could get it to boot. joelz glad to see a powerful xda member supporting this. you probably remember me joelz when I started the thread to keep people up to date about your ROM on here when you left. glad we have your backing on this. it would make your ROMS that much sweeter if we can get this done. so my donantion starts out at 5 bucks to the developer that shows work in progress. let me know! and lets get this done!

I would like to thank the testers that responded, i hope we can provide a very fluid smooth rom for you. at this point we have enough testers. we will likely open up to one or two more people for additional testing soon.
thank you,
Team Blackout

i would be open to testing later on (cant right now due to lack of time and need my phone working). I see NRGZ28 is part of the team, im currently using his sense 3.5 rom, and (no disrespect meant for the rest of the team) but i trust him cause of the good job he has done with his other rom. So im sure that if this is not already a great rom, it will surely be.
Thanks to all the team for developing for our device, and will be glad to test as soon as i have time on my hands!

request to test Blackout ICS
Hello,
I know you said testing was closed but if you reopen testing / have some spare slots / etc. then I'd appreciate Blackout ICS for my Desire Z. (It's S-OFF, etc. ready)
I already have Blackout ICS for my Desire HD (thanks) so I can compare functionality between models.
Also, I have written apps for Android (albeit it in Java), ported adb/fastboot to FreeBSD (which I understand to kernel level).
I have particular interest in having Orange's "Signal Boost" running on ICS, as I have on my DHD.
Please let me feel the love!
Thanks,
Dominic

since a few days I have a spare DZ I can use for all sorts of testing. So if there is still a spot open or you are reopening some spots. I would like to offer that phone up for you guys
Sent from my HTC Vision using Tapatalk 2

I really would like to volunteer, too. Also im using your blackout 3.0.0 and i think this is the best sense rom I've ever used, and i would like to say the problems that I noticed.
I'm using the blackout3.0 rom approximately for one month, and these are the problems I have encountered:
*Wifi hotspot not working
*Screen rotate issues
*FM radio not working (for me)
*Hw keyboard lights not working (actually works for just half-a-second when opening)
*Too shiny menu lights
*Compass is distorted
(If I remember/notice more I will put it here)
Since I'm a SenseUI fan, I will be enjoy testing.
Thanks again for the rom.
Sorry for bad English

If you like, you can test this port.

custom roms for arc s review

hi every one
i would like to open a thread about reviews on custom roms on ARC S
reviews made as ORDINARY USER
it is just about how you think of your device AFTER a custom rom
what you like or dislike.....
what you miss or need and didn't found ....(no need to tell how and what you do , because that's another subject)
NO NEED to post Q or BUGS or HOW TO or REQUESTS or DEEP DEVELOPER details JUST....USER OPINION!!!
AND please give credits to the developers of the ROMS by posting links to threads you found the custom rom in.
Starting form here:
Arc S with rooted GB (LT18i 4.0.2.A.0.62) and CWM installed
AtoMic GB 5.0 final (custom rom)
AtoMic Gb 5.0 Arc S patch!

-device working fine no lags or errors ..until now
-installing apps &games and they are working good for me
-no file manager pre-installed
-don't like ring tones
my overall opinion it is GOOD rom to try!!!:good::good:

You should use the respective Rom threads to post reveiws about romS!
edit:
allright if everyone wants it

Well I think it's a good idea for a thread that could help people in finding ROM's with features they are looking for. I dislike posting off topic so here I go:
CyanogenMod 10
+Clean
+Stable
+Fast
+Not as bloated as stock ICS
+JB notifications are useful
+Supported and actively developed
+Open source
-Camera is awful
-Ringtones could be better but who really cares?
Oh and don't take XtremeSilencer seriously he's not so bright...

The way People can find what they're looking for is by reading the ROM threads in the development section, not by reading noobs opinions on one of the many variations of a "best ROM" thread, which this is, evident by the short summary of what the OP thinks about the ROM.
I can't agree more. Which ROM is the fastest? Which kernel is best? etc. etc. It's like walking into a bar and asking which drink is the best. You can't get your answer because every person around has a personal taste and looking for something different.
Going further. Telling that one ROM is better than another is quite disrespectful to developers. Most of them spent much time making their work for FREE and one guy can easily depreciate their work.
If you're looking for answer - try. It's easy and making it on your own is much funnier than looking for spoon feeding in every situations. Thinking is fun

I can't see this as valid review, because every user is different and every user has its own needs. 2 people will not have totally same user experience on same ROM and kernel.

Wrong. XDA is a developers' site. If you're a noob, then make yourself not one, or leave

Actually I have an Ultimate HD of course, with Ultimate HD Mod and I like it very much.
+almost no lags
+xperia z theme
+modded statusbar (better than stock, I think)
+configurable
+quite frequent updates
-few useless system apps
Grade: 5,5 (in Poland we have grading scale from 2-5 at universities )
Previously I had used several other ROM`s, for example Viper Xpieria (good, 4,5-5), Racing Bean (not so good, 3-3,5), CyanogenMod 10 (good, 4), MIUI (good, 4), Jelly Sandwich (very good, 5, but it`s no longer developed I think) and CAMPS+ (bad, 2,5-3).
So to sum up, in my opinion the best ROM actually is Ultimate HD + Ultimate HD Mod, cause of no lagging, stability, and almost no bugs.

I've been using Custom ROMs for about 6 months. So, didn't try too many of them. The reason why I switched to custom ROM was Sony Bloatware and the slowness of official ICS ROM. What I was looking for was more internal space and get the phone up to GB speeds.
First try was CM9.
+ Easy to install, best documentation out there,
+ Good customization options,
+ Frees up load of memory,
+ The GUI doesn't lag too much
+ Fast boot-up.
- Apollo player (hated it and due to regional issues, I couldn't install Google Music),
- WiFi issues
Next I tried racing bean with Fusion 4.4
+ The GUI is much more fluid than anything I tried on my Arc,
+ Customization is on the same level as CM9,
+ Same internal storage usage as CM9,
+ Includes good players/utilities,
+ Battery life didn't shorten despite the fact that the phone became more fluid and responsive,
+ WiFi locks very fast and stable,
+ No issues with 3G,
- There are 3 camera programs included. The panaroma one doesn't even launch (force close immediately). The other two are definitely below the Sony's original camera application,
- The kernel boot takes forever. I see the Fusion logo for about 40 seconds. Once the Nexus animation starts, the boot-up goes very fast. I get the feeling that the Fusion kernel is waiting for a timeout,
- The phone reboots occasionally. Especially when GPS is used (like with dedicated navigation programs). I think when the phone is under heavy load (you feel that the GUI starts stuttering and lag becomes apparent) almost immediately the Nexus X logo comes up.
I heard good things about the Ultimate HD ROM. Will try that one once I get some free time.

Each user will have different experience with each ROM. So an opinion from a certain user about a certain ROM may differ from another user. The only way to truly find the best ROM for your phone is to try it out.

u should try by yourself. believe me buddy, its fun if you try by youself. This is not about how you install something that is inserted into your device, and you show people that you mostly have advanced technology. more than that comrade ... it's about development.
respect those who have tried to create a custom ROM and share it here...

Stupid Macbook Air can't fly

good room and very flixable but have 2 prob power sever axperia arc s 4.0.4 and restart phone

Best ROM's for Arc S (Stable only)
Well I don't have 10 post under my belt so I can not post on developer thread but am a hyper droid flasher. Rooted my phone the very next day and voided its warranty. Since then have used many many ROMs but only few are there to remember.
Let me just go by Droid OS versions:
1. ICS 4.0.4= Pureness ROMS, VIPER
2. JB 4.1.2 = Slim bean or Super JB
3. JB 4.2.2 = Paranod Android v3.6 (Rizal Lovins) My current ROM
