Third... new to the mt4g so I've been flashing a lot of roms to find a good one.. aospx is great. Real stable and everything works, maybe not the most feature packed. But its not lacking much. I would use the new job builds but I use my phone too much or music

what rom are you running

Sinster roms have always been my favorite roms just curious what all you guys are running i had a issue with a couple of my apps not running on the newest version of sinister the dev. is super cool dude always helpful. i flashed to dominus_zetav1 then to v3 but some stuff didn't work on v3 so i flashed back to v1.
Synergy nightly. I don't usually run Sense ROMs - but this thing is stable and sharp.

Nothing major so to speak. I do like the way the battery indicator and the skins right out the box on Mik's. Both are good imo. I am already back to deck's rom tho, I missed my aosp

This one. Stock GB, rooted, De-Odexed.
I've been rooted for about 2 weeks and tried just about everything, found that I really liked Warm 2.2 and moved into the synergy nightlys because it was being talked about in the thread. And Synergy is amazing imo and I can't wait for the finished product
I bounce between Warm 2.2 and MIUI, but going to load up Synergy in a few minutes and probably stick on that for awhile. I load Warm 2.2 onto all of friend's phones, though.
I donated one of my Carbon Fiber battery covers to Myn, too. evo.carbonfibermagic.com

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.

Have to say joelz's shooter rewind 3D has been running great for the past month or so, waiting for his new Sense 3.5 release before I retire shooter. Gotta be honest, out of all the roms I've flashed, joelz's usually come out on top.

Deck's Ics And Drew's Ics Roms

Okay so i was wondering, Which Ics build do you guys prefer. As of right now the latest ics build for Decks is Pre-beta 9 and for Drew i think it's Alpha 1. But each have their differences and similarities. I honestly havent flashed Drew's p12 but i have flashed Deck's and let me tell you its an awesome rom. Its my favorite ics one out there. I just made this post to see what you guys here at Xda prefer and which one would rather use as your daily driver. Any comments or other rom suggestions are welcome.
Drews is now alpha. I've tried both an right now performance wise drews new one is a tad bit better for me although decks has more features

Yeah I know I flashed drew's a few hour ago and I'm seeing that it has less customization options. But I think I like decks a little more but there almost the same. But who knows well see future updates
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
Agreed. I thinks drews latest is smooth as buttah. In fact, swiping in drawer, I've accidentally slid thru 2 panels lol. But it has very little in customization. I really muss that from AOKP.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I love the stability of drew's, and am currently running it (about 48 hours), but certainly miss the "System" section of Decks PB9 in the menu. That thing had so many customization options that the alpha version of Evervolv does not have (that toolbox app has so few options).
All-in-all, I think I'm gonna nandroid back over to PB9 soon.
Yeah thats what i dont really like about drew's. It has little customization. But other than that their both great ics roms.
But does anybody know what the function for Themes is in Deck's settings? Like i've always seen it there but it's always empty.
Evervolv for everything.

I believe it's essentially a placeholder until that feature becomes functional.
I'm thinking I might drop the ROMcontrol apk from aokp into drews and see how it goes. (Lol, just kidding, obviously, and dreaming )

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?

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.

I'm using Dark JellyBelly, and I've found it works great. I don't see any significant problems with it. There are a couple of relativel minor ones, but nothing significant. You can read more here:

To get good call quality, you will need to flash the low-volume fix after you install DJB. That's easily done. It's found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24008900&postcount=531
The biggest issue I have with the ROM is that the wifi hotspot doesn't turn on from the stock control. You'll need to download Wifi Tether from the Play Market to make that work (and set it up as a Nexus One, FYI). If you can flash the volume fix, and work with that wifi issue, this ROM is excellent.
Good luck

oh so you want stable? Stay on Gingerbread.
Sense: Android Revolution HD
AOSP: Cyanogenmod 7
you can't go wrong with these two ROMs, if you want stability with everything smooth and working, stay away from ICS or JB.
ICS is smooth and stable now.
