Hello a friend of mine has the my touch 4g and I wanted to know which rom was the closest to stock (sense included) but had the few nice features like OC/UV and stuff like that. If there isn't one like that which one is the most buttery smooth?
I have a captivate and the cognition rom is the same idea of what im looking for if anyone knows what im talking about.
Thanks in advance

Most Stable rom right now
the most Stable Rom for MYtouch 4G is the Ice Glacier

Isn't Orange Glacier supposed to be even closer to stock? I would assume the closest to stock would be the most stable...not saying Ice is buggy, but wondering if I understand this correctly...
Definitely the closest thing to stock would be the stock ROM. You won't believe it's not stock!

Rooted stock rom + custom kernel that's made for stock rom= closet to stock rom w/ uv+oc.
[via XDA app]
I'd say Royalglacier just because it's always being worked to perfection
How would you compair stock with a custom kernel to a whole custom rom?
On the captivate the stock rom has a lot of issues. The customs are wwaaaayyy better.

Stock is pretty good on the Myt4g, but the customs are better. Roms such as cm7, royal glacier, as well as many others are constantly being updated. Just find one that suites you best. A customer kernel isn't going to change your experience to incredibly much. Maybe add a little stability, possibly better performance, and you can oc.
the driver updates on faux's kernels are pretty important. You'll notice the touchpanel update immediately. It's the easiest thing to spot when first switching. Lighter touch registers, clean and smooth. I think he called it finger porn.
Hey guys, sorry for the noob question, but im currently looking into kernels and
wanted to see what everyone else is using on this rom.
I would like something that runs smooth but fast. What do you guys suggest/ use.
im currently using Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid [2.35.0]

Use Unity kernel v5, kernel from the ROM, or use TheDerekjay's demonspeed kernel for sense. I don't use virtuous but those are you main options, and Faux has a sense kernel, but you'll have to search to find it.
Running the ROM as is. It's speedy, more than enough.

For some reason I don't have thanks as an option.

when is the last time you updated the app in the market?
also you should just tap the post you want to thank, and it will bring it up, not long press, my bad
also, i am not sure if it is available via the free xda app, but i always try to support the devs of my most used apps, so the .99 for the premium is well worth it!!!

So I'm running the faux sense kernel, pretty smooth. I decided to run the stock volt. Because I have the "bad chip" and so I got a little spooked. I have flashed a decent amount of roms with no issues.... Yet fingers crossed.

So V5 isnt the kernel that comes with vu 2.35 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, ill look into those. Also what recovery do you recommend CM or RA?
Amon Ra by far
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
My recommendation would be Team Nocturnal Xplod 1.2 with Tiamat 3.37, it has bewn very smooth for me and AOSP
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
My recommendations :
CM7.1.0
ICS themes from market (both cm7 and adw.)
Set screen density to 200.

i recommend amon ra, and if you are interested in learning about aosp roms/kernels click on the link in my sig it's a guide that will explain it all to you with download links to all the roms and download zips to all the kernels. and if you need help installing your rom/kernel i put a link there to a guide for that
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?

Decks is the way to go with aosp roms. I read people praising salvaged zen all the time, but I always have issues when charging my phone on that kernel. I go with.Tiamat. I like the idea of an aosp rom that is still being updated.

Go with cm7.0 always gave me the best speed and battery life. Use tiamat kernel with supercharger script.

I Like sinister R9 - its sense based It is very fast has working everything as far as ive seen used this rom for over 3 weeks and as a result even my IT guy that swares by AOSP CM7 switched to it and he also likes it alot .. The one thing i can say i didnt like about Cm7 is the way it links contacts .. sense is amazing at linking contacts

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.

Can I just flash the Tiamat on top or will i have to reflash the ROM again and start over?
I just flashed the tiamat kernel. went w/o SBC as i have read that can be risky. Do I need to adjust any settings to help with battery life or does the kernel take care of that? Should Id be using setCPU?

I have tried a bunch of roms, asop and sense, I by far like the aosp roms much better. I am currently digging the latest Xplod rom by Team Nocturnal.
Team Blaze Roms with Sense 3.5 you cant go wrong with Blaze

I was using the latest Beatmod Bliss Sense and I believe he is using a Virtuous kernel in his rom. I had great success with the WiFi on that rom and I was wondering if anyone had a download link for that kernel. I found a couple different versions when searching the threads but from what I read there is more than one version. Tried flashing the couple that I found with a different sense 3.5 rom but ran into more issues with WiFi. Does anyone have a link to the exact one that is used in the Beatmod rom?
i know you can get the virtuous kernel from their website, though that doesn't mean it's the one z uses. i would just pm him.
btw nice name, makes me want to break out viktor vaughn.
I will give that a shot man. Thanks for the advice.
That's a great album man. I'm a fan.

Faux123's kernels haven't been updated in a long time. Not to say they weren't good, just a little outdated in my opinion.
Try everything though. Use each one long enough to get a real feel for it. Make your decision based on what's good for your phone and use.

I have seen a lot of people raving about swipers ICS MIUI. I downloaded but haven't flashed yet. What makes it so great? I will probably have to give it a try tonight. I just hope its a smooth set up. I hate having to flash gps drivers and stuff like that. But if its that good I guess its worth the setup time.

Exactly. Once again, NOBODY can tell you what the best rom for you is. Everyone has their own wants/needs, and not to mention the same rom will not run the same on every single device. Try a few roms, and find one you like, simple as that.
I use the Miks rom and it run flawlessly
I've been running nitrous for awhile now. The dev is extremely good at taking requests and keeping everyone updated on his progress.
Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I tried nitrous but the battery life blew dogs. I'm in SOS 1.9 ics I love ics are there any other good ics roms out there.

I'm partial to MikG 3.11 (or the latest). Stable, smooth, decent features and stays pretty updated.

Anything MIUI has been awesome for me...So customization & runs fast, everything works besides 4g but I cant get 4g in this area anyways...Plus the themes change up the look of your phone alot!! BTW Why is ICS Muiu running Mason kernel the best? Does GPS camera video ect work?? How do I get video or movies from my phone to work on my TV thru QQ player?
n00b-rom with tiamat 3.3.7 is the best rom around its so smooth and everything works

I am an OG Epic user, and the biggest (only?) complaint I had and have seen with our ICS ports is that the lack of battery life renders the phone unuseable. Is the same the case with the Evo? I see a lot of ICS roms and folks here seem to like it, but I've flashed the Evo's on my account with some roms lately that score unbelievable battery life so I'm hesitant to change.
