This phone has been out less than a month and we just got a work around for the bootloader a week ago. Give it some time. There are quite a few devs here that normally do stock based roms. If I were you, check out nottach's xposed mod. It's like having a tw rom with your choice of mods.

thanks I've already been using it. And i dont know why the previous poster reported.. I'm just asking a question. I didnt know if there was something about the att version driving everyone away because I see sprint has quite a few roms

Sprint didn't have a locked bootloader. That's why Sprint and T-mobile are ahead in development as far as roms go.

Just go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2276871
And port a ROM you want that's what I did. It took me few tries but I managed to get it working just like it was made for my device model

You have to understand alot of developers left Samsung for many reasons. This device will most likely not see the level of development to that the other Galaxys did.

i know there are alot of devs working behind the scenes and will be realeasing soon:good:

Signal Dampening on Eris + Custom ROMS?

Hello,
I have the leaked 2.1 on my Eris (From Mid-March), and I noticed that where i would have Four bars i usually have 2 or 3 now. Is there a new ROM I can download that will fix this?
Also, Are the custom ROMS better than the leaked Rom? And can someone explain a little better about a custom ROM.
Thanks
if you have the leak then you DONT HAVE ROOT and therefore cannot install ROMs or much else. there are currently NO ROOTING METHODS for leakers. youre SOL for now.

im absolutely serious. youll need to wait until you read about any future news. many devs are fed up with people constantly asking about rooting the leaks (not saying youre one of these people). just dont ask. it will be announced **IF** it ever happens.

Should have done your research..by installing leak you blew your chance at getting root..for now atleast.

G2 ROMs

Ok obviously we don't have any now, but I wanted to get the ball rolling.
The only rom I personally would like is a vanilla one with all the google stuff not pre installed!
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I want the Desire Z rom, never played with sense, would like to try it out
I want a Gingerbread ROM. What's the hold up guys?? Come on already! hehe
Seriously, though. Vanilla, pre-rooted 2.2.1 with tethering/hot-spot would be sweet.
Cyanogen Rom pls
Desire Z ROM please, rooted!
Just Got My Phone And Its A Really Smooth Phone.
I have have The G1, MT3G Slide, and now the Android G2.
The G2 is way smoother then all of the rest.
I would just like all the google crap removed.
I want CyanogenMod and be able to tether
Vanilla is fine with me, I just want root to run Wireless Tether
Usb tether(not pdanet) would make me happy, that's the only reason I root.

@tubaking
Usb tether is cool, but why not wireless tether like the one that's available on the google codes page?
@PolishDude @SuperDave81 @RaffieKol
If I could try the Desire rom with all the bloatware removed, I'm game because I absolutely love sense. I went and downloaded Beautiful Widgets along with Beautiful Live Weather just so I can somewhat emulate the HTC Sense Weather/Clock
@f231f
I am definitely feeling a vanilla rom, no google stuff unless I want to install it and root so I can install Wireless Tether from google

If this was the wrong place to post this then I apologize and would greatly appreciate it if a mod would move it to the correct section. As far as the developers not liking what is being said here, they don't have to do it. This forum isn't one dictating what they should do, but merely what we would like to see done. Regardless of what they put out, people will flash their roms. I seriously don't think that they would get offended over what was said here.

I never said they would be offended. These Dev's do this on their free time and starting a thread asking for what people want in a ROM for a phone thats yet to be rooted is not to bright. Focus on rooting the phone first, because with out root devs cant make roms for it. From what Ive seen some Dev's start to feel unappreciated when people ask for so much, some people don't understand that this isn't the Dev's day job. its a past time activity for them.

I never said it was their day job nor did I say it was something that is owed to us. If developers have issues with us saying what we want in a rom, they wouldn't ask us for our suggestions and heed them when we make them. So you, who aren't the mouth piece for developers, should let them speak for themselves concerning their feelings about their roms. And for you to say that me creating this post about what people would like to see in a rom isn't "bright", well that remark wasn't bright seeing as this is an open forum and I can create topic(s) about anything I want so long as it fall under the sites guidelines. If you have an issue with what's being said here, then don't post here. If you have absolutely no desire of anything specific in a rom, then why waste your time coming to a post pertaining to that? If your a mod, then delete the post, if not, then I am going ask that you stop posting comments that don't pertain to the topic at hand.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
well how about that sexy desire z 10second boot time, on a modified stock g2 rom with the usual cyanogen speed increases that we always get and tethering.. anything else can be done with an app or home replacement, this phones plenty fast.. once we get rooted, overclock to 1ghz and just wait for faster roms lol this threads pointless as we dont even have a root right now.
I second this. T-Mobile over did it with it seems EVERY Google app pre-installed.

teaser, need a tester?
Couldn't agree more with previous posts. Surely donate to devs you appreciate, particularly if you get comfortable and use their rom almost exclusively. But never believe you've "hired" them because you haven't. In fact in some cases devs may lose that 'warm and fuzzy' feeling they get from sharing their great work with grateful users if they feel those users are just greedy and needy wanting everything handed to them.
I fix computers for friends/acquantances all the time, and when I know someone a) will appreciate it and b) has put effort in to fix an issue themselves already, I actively bug them to let me help them fix it. Some other people (my sister is one) assume that because their friends/relatives that I should drop everything I'm doing at any given moment, or at the end of a very long day of work and immediately run over to their house (even if it's a laptop) and fix whatever issue they're having at the moment. This usually before they've even attempted fixing it themselves. Those people don't usually get my help even when I do have the time...
Just some food for thought. It wasn't necessarily a bad question (maybe if it was asked next week or 2 weeks from now I might be wondering if they were having issues with sammy's source code or something), I just know that especially with such a small development community, I want the devs to know that we're mostly very grateful for any great work that is shared with us, and also that we the users are here to try and help provide constructive feedback regarding bugs, fixes, features etc anyway we can. Keep the good times rolling devs!

When dk28 was released many new roms popped up..right now most developers of roms already implemented a lot of customizations over time..these customizations need to be tested and etc..
Not to mention since there i source it leaves a lot of room for improvement..EB133 stock is a pretty good rom..and improving upon it takes time...

wt a disaster. I always loved his roms and work. I still cannot believe that he left :crying:. I just realized that the thread has got 3 stars only. For me it deserved a 5 star
I dont know what happened i think everyone complained cause the latest rom didnt work for GSM and noone wanted to do multirom me included but i could have waited till it was fixed. I hope he comes back. Alot of people love his work i do too im on sense 6 right now
Given the number of roms and the volume of work entailed I'm surprised there is only one man behind it all. Take his roms away and the m7 development forums become a much bleaker place imo.

Here's why it happened:
Santod040's quote:
Due to the repackaging and redistribution of my Sense 7 rom, without my permission and my rom name and Dev name being removed from it, I am closing all my GSM rom threads and projects and at this time, I have no intentions of returning to the GSM forums.
Sorry to those of you who have enjoyed and appreciated my efforts, I wish you all the best!
Really sad that 1 or 2 morons messed it up for everyone.
Note from me: Shame on you idiots who thought you could steal someone else's stuff.
Karma can be a real beyotch later - remember that.
So sad that he decided to leave GSM forum. Maybe we should file an online petition to let him change his mind.

Let him know that has a lot of supporters who love his work and would love to see him releasing amazing roms.

I have been using his ROMs for a while now. Very sad that he will not continue developing them. I'm getting an M9 in a few weeks and hopefully someone equally skilled (or santod040) will develop ROMs for that device.
So sad that some idiots steal his work. I hope that if he upgrades to the M9 he will continue his development. His roms were smooth and with great feedback/support of him. Everything was compiled by him in the nusenseven rom. I have the roms but have not the knowledge to cook it myself for GSM. He will leave a big hole in the GSM dev scene.

Cm 13 and M based ROM Discussion

I would like to just set up a thread for any word on CM13 and or any work on M based ROMs for the TMO N4. I did not see one so if there is I apologize and will take it down.
Cm13 is available unofficially for the international verison which I did flash and had bad things happen. I have heard no talk of when we are to expect it for TMO. So hopefully we can remain updated by more informed members of the XDA community.
Im dying to get a feel for it and heard the Cyanogen Team put some nice work into this as they always do.

Unofficially, there is no talk about when it will be released is because it doesn't work on our device yet. There are developers working on it as we speak, but they don't like being asked an ETA. It'll be ready when it's ready. On the flip side, simply discussing what features we'd like to see in Android M could be a nice thread to have. Devs could look here for that if they do choose and see what cherry picks people want.

But I did just see a M system dump as well as a few posts of a member on the international side who is currently working on a TMO version. I believe he has developed some working blobs but has a bit to go.
As for features, i really dont know why we dont have multi window support for CM yet. Ive asked but never got a real answer as to why they always leave it out. For the TMO version id love to see working s-pen. But i hear they did find a way to get wifi calling to work so thats great news if true.

I'm aware you aren't, but if it's not mentioned than all the sudden the thread will get spammed with it.
As far as multi-window? CM/Slim 12.1 has something of the sort. But true multi-window is a TW only feature add it is proprietary drivers and tough to get source code on.
As long as I have my battery bar, sliding on status bar for brightness, and CM theme support, I'll be a happy little clam. The rest is just gravy. Would be awesome to have fingerprint support on an AOSP based ROM.

Cm13 ROM has been booted for tmo, not s xx hybrid but there are issues with the baseband
Its coming guys. @ZION959 has a bootable cm13 with data and everything going for t-mobile. He posted in the snapdragon note 4 thread for cm13. hasn't posted it yet to my knowledge but its a matter of time.:good:
Sidenote: holy hell i need to change my signature. havent posted in forever haha
I did see that data is now a function on the INT version of CM13. I did read that finger print is actually proposed to make it. Unsure on the legitness of that one. Im super excited to see progress now. Im just surprised that with M sources released that we see no ROMs built. I have actually attempted sitting down and doing so building. Man is it time consuming. I just took frames from a open project and did some bsic things and was frustrated. Thanks to all the people who take their time to build these things. :good:

Could be too early to tell. I would imagine devs don't want to be bothered with questions on ETA when things don't work. There's no real way of telling exactly when you make a breakthrough in coding.

Seems we may have a breakthrough. Fingers crossed.
Also, can someone withone with understanding of the process of building roms from a source like Marshmallow tell me something? If there is a system dump, say from Nexus, for M how come it is so hard to turn that into a runnable version for samsung? I know the systems are totally different and we have the TW systems, but as a AOSP source I always believed that turning that around from the code was the reason the codes were released. I started to see that was very wrong back when L hit and the massive bs these devs went thru with that. So is there a easy way to explain the process and why it is so difficult to do for us?

I'm not a coder, but I have an understanding of how this works a little. The biggest reason is hardware differences and getting the coding right to match the software (drivers) to the hardware. With AOSP, the devs have to write coding from scratch for a 'port' from a system dump from another phone. Especially one that's a different brand entirely.
That is about the best I can think to explain it. If I am totally off bass there, a dev could come in and snack me around for spreading misinformation. [emoji19]
