Cyanogen great job

Well since I install cyanogen 6.0.0 on my Evo 4g last night , it is now time to give up my iPhone for good! Goodbye old pal.

How are you like the Rom/Kernal or both?

w00t! The snap kernel may interest you if you like the stock cm6: http://tinyurl.com/373jx3f

I love it with the 8.1 kernel. Hit 1734 on quadrant. Yeah I know doesn't really mean anything but from froyo stock to this rom and kernel 500+ on quadrant is nice.

It's an "EVO 3G" in most parts of the U.S.
Even if it were available to me right now I would still use CM6.

No 4G is worth the sacrifice for a fast running ROM... but I can't want for a CM6 with 4G!

Once you have 4g, you will never want to go back to 3g, the speeds are so much better in every app that uses any kind of data.

CM6 is a great ROM but 4g can be had without sacrifice in Fresh or Baked Snack.
Swyped on my EVO

One of the things I liked the most abt CM6 is, modificable power control widget (add or take what you want on it), quick keyboard responsiveness, um can't think of anything else. I normally flash Fresh (3.2.0.0 donate version off HTC's latest 3.28.651.1 build with a MUCH IMPROVED stable and battery saving kernel by HTC, BIG IMPROVEMENTs over Kingklick's kernels! I mean BIG!!!)
When I feel like it, I switch to CM6 to toy around...when it comes to business and stability, I like Fresh (wish there was a senseless version of Fresh!)

4g is not in my area so i could care less about 4g but CM6 = WIN pure WIN

Cm6 is the best...I'm using it now..so much better then stock

I really wish I knew how to get all these. I don't even know to root it..
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Ill probably try it whenever the 4g works.. my phone is fast enough as is and losing 4g is a killer for me. I never got giving up functions for a rom though... *shrug*

Yeah, I mean, we're all paying $10 for 4G. Even though we're not all covered by 4G, it is always an option when traveling, etc. Seems silly to regress IMHO.

If you know how to use a computer you can do it. It looks more intimidating than it is. If you're still on 2.1 use Simple Root (doesn't get any easier). Froyo is a little more lengthy but its not hard. Just read through the tutorials a few times and it won't seem so bad. Sorry to jack the thread.

Ok, well there are so many tutorials I don't know which one to use. Any help would be appreciated. Sorry to bother all of you.

i will be switching to cm6 once 4g is working. i suppose if i lived in some backwoods area that has no 4g i wouldnt mind not having 4g, but man 4g really helps when doing things on the phone that require lots of data. not only that but sometimes 3g can get so damn saturated that speeds are terrible, usually happens at concerts or places where there are lots of people, i just switch to 4g and bam im good haha.

Phoenix isn't backwoods and Sprint doesn't offer 4G here....

I gave in last night and after 2 weeks of telling myself it wasn't worth the risk of bricking my phone, I rooted it and installed CM6 Stable. It is a great rom, luckily the 4G for me is 2 hours away and I get great 3G coverage so its not a big deal. I saw they made the front page on Engadget today it seems like I jumped aboard at the right time.

Please recommend a ROM for a noob

Hey guys and gals,
So I just rooted my EVO last week with the Beta unrevoked with success. I flash my first ROM that day(Drew's GB 15a ROM). I really like it but it really isn't something that I could use everyday yet, of course.
That being said, can anyone recommend a ROM that is just as easy to flash without haveing to flash anything else over it and with everything working? I hope I am making sence. Maybe a Froyo ROM without sence or even with sence. Anything custom that people really like. I am just getting into flashing ROM's so, I am trying to keep it simple at first.... The EVO is my first android phone. My hardware build is 0003 if that helps. I got it on release day.
Thanks Everyone!

Can't go wrong with cyanogen.

Thanks for the replies guys! Do you have any links for the ones you like? When I do a search here I get tons of threads!

cyanogen's current stable doesn't have 4g FYI. i just got my evo today & flashed the fresh rom (used to use his hero roms). i dig it.

If you like sense Fresh is the way to go, calkulins ROM always been my favorite. Just head over to the development thread you see them, download, nandroid backup, wipe, flash.

I've had my evo for about a month and I flash a new rom every week a to try them all out I'm currently on my fourth rom and I think a nice noob rom would be the Sprint Lovers rom its not too different from stock

No doubt, myn's warm twopointtwo has been the best ROM that I've flashed. It incorporates sense. Definitely worth checking out,

By the way, all the devs do great work. Thanks for all your input.

CyanogenMod....easilly the best rom out there. I get superb battery life out of it. It's very responsive.....just plain the best.
P.S. If you like sense try Fresh or Warm they are both great.

Can't go wrong with cyanogenmod. Yet again when you want gingerbread go with evervolv and sense go with myns or virus

There isn't anything that's the exact same, but we do have a few different 2.3 roms. You should try CM7 (obviously) or we do have royal ginger and fauxs asop. I'm sure you can find a honey comb theme around here somewhere too. Also, you should try handcent sms, the have a few different looks you can try out.

ok well i just found out that the rom install on my wifes phone is for the I9000 Galaxy 4g.
is there anyway to port this to the mytouch 4g?

I'm sure its possible, it would most likely be buggy tho. Prob wouldn't be worth it. Download a Asop and play around in the themes forum, I but you could come up with your own stuff.
Also my fav Rom is royal glacier try that ;-)

P.S. I am using the SMS app Chomp but one I get a message and delete the message I will get the same message may 2 or 3 times. Any ideas?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

I believe everything was already explained to you.
About ChompSMS - try to uninstall it and see if the problem is related to it, or it's your phone.

There are honeycomb themes for CM7 that you can use instead, it's not worth porting over the SGS software at all- there are many HW differences that would cause issues. Even the sense ports to the galaxys are buggy already. Go look in the xda theme section for the honeycomb themes.

royalginger 2 and 3g/4g

just flash royal ginger 2.0, great rom, although i'm having an issue where my signal flips constantly between 3G and 4G, i actually was running with cygenmod 7 for a few days and was having the same issue so i thought iw ould try a different rom, and same issue. I've flashed all three different radios and have same luck. if i revert back to the stock rom, i have a solid 4G all the time. any suggestions?

When using CM or any derivitives of (maybe even AOSP) you will be connected to 3G most of the time until you download or need to use 4G then it will automaticlly switch.
With the stock rom it does not differentiate (visually) between 3G and 4G so even though you think you are on 4G all the time you might not actually be.

Is this why you have posted at least 15-20 times today in different threads with pretty much off topic useless comments? Trying to get your post count up since your account was created yesterday? I for one would never flash a Rom from some one that isnt or hasnt been a part of this community for some time. I also saw this post from you (only a hour ago) that makes me wonder....you are building Roms yet had to have help rooting a phone that is really very simple to root. This of coarse is just my two cents, and of coarse everyone is able to do what ever they want.

While you are new, I'll try that as soon as other people have given a thumbs up to it. but PLEASE try and make the gps consistent. That alone is why I'm sticking with the stock rom - any rom with good wireless data and fully functional GPS is a winner. ESPECIALLY if it's AOSP.

I saw this on a thread a while back... dial *#*#4636#*#* and then choose the first option (like phone info or something) then scroll down to where it says wcdma preferred and tap it and switch it to wcdma only and reboot and you'll be on 4g way more than before. I was having the same 3g 4g mess before I found info. Wish I could.thank the original post but I don't remember who it was. I also know that trick works on other android phones as well.

all vanilla android (aosp) ROMs seem to have this reputation. the people who do see this usually don't have this happen all the time but seems to come in spurts and then be ok for a while.
but one thing that does NOT help the situation is jumping around flashing one new ROM / kernel / radio after another over and over in short periods of time. ..feel free to do this if you're really itching to but just don't clog up all the corresponding threads with questions or comments about your battery life, reception, data speeds, etc .... JUST EXPECT inconsistencies if you're currently indulging your flash crack addiction.
it comes with the territory.
and I'm not trying to say don't try other setups out. but if you are really on a 'quest' to find the configuration (ROM/kernel/radio/etc) that works best for YOU - do yourself a favor and give each setup 3 - 4 days AT LEAST .. ideally a week +
not only for the ROM to have a chance to settle in and show you some kind of consistency but to give your worn out phone and battery a rest!
your glacier will be a much happier little block of ice this way, believe me

ROM suggestion?

Fellow mytouch 4g users,
I am currently on CM 7.2 and experience the following issues:
1. When connected to both Bluetooth and wifi, I intermittently get dropped from wifi.
2. Mute function does not work with wifi calling.
Can anyone suggest a stable ROM that doesn't experience these issues?
Thanks in advance.

Umm, I'm not sure if I would call it stable, i mean, it is still in beta, I think.
For OP, try CM7.1, it seems like the most stable ROM for this device out there (for now anyways). Or try fixing permissions, that always does wonders when I run into bugs

I can't explain it, but I can't seem to like full cm7. I've used a couple roms with cm7 base that are OK. And trust me, I'm not insulting the work, its more of a visual thing. But actually in regards to the stability of creamed glacier, its pretty straight right now. It really depends on what you use your phone for. Although its fixed now, I never cared about the camera issue, bcause I rarely use my camera. But again, it really depends if you are a heavy, mid, to light user, to determine how many bugs you will notice...
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium

If those are your main concerns, i suggest a gingerbread rom, NOT an ics rom. Try RoyalGinger (CM with stock overlay) or you can try an number of sense roms. Most of them have no issues regarding bluetooth and wifi calling. Again, stay away from ics roms if those are your main concerns.
--If i have helped, hit thanks--

I'm currently using blackice. Its based off of cm7 I believe.
Check out miui as well!
Let me know if you need the roms.
