My Own Testing on all these roms... - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Ever since i got my hands on an Android i been testing like crazy looking for that perfect rom. Not until recently cyanogens roms were a nightmare for me. Btw, i have a mytouch 3G black T-mobile USA version. I have it loaded with the RAv1.4 or is it RAv1.2, anyway the cyanogen and many other roms ( i suspect its the SPL) have a screen lit problem. after i put the phone to sleep, when it wakes up it has the big black blur. Cyanogen recently fixed it! and his roms have been awesome until the last release. No more tethering, no more apps like that one fabolous task killer app with the blue icon. Once again im sure there is good reasoning..
I dont need smart ass replies or answers to anything i read above. this thread is for others like me that just want to kno which rom is awesome for their phone. like me, they dont want to click thru every single release thread with 10,000 pages. lets get it started with one that im loving!
1) RaiderX303 Micro Hero v2.0
Everything is FAST AND SMOOTH
No "extra" apps included
Market doesnt seem to work ( i only tried to dl astrid..not dling)
SO FAST its worth it for me to use for a few days even week(s).
and i mean fast as most hero apps i uninstall in a hour.
I will update this thread as i go
NOTE: writing this was purely out of my boredom/lunch break. i do not attempt to put in an extra effort to get things right like that name of the blue app that kills my tasks(damn what is it calllledd) . im simply venting/commenting on roms i try out as im a rom fiend just like linux distros. so if your using the same phone as iam ...come back

update
Market does work just not astrid.
Found wifi tethering on market.

I'm sorry, but what's the meaning of this thread?

my own thread logging up which rom i tried and liked/ what didnt work. is this a problem? or am i suppose to go to every roms own thread to post my opinion?

Yes you should post your opinion in each thread. This has nothing to do with development. At the very least post this in general.

thanks for the right "direction"
mods is it possible to move this to general? thanks

Is there a reliable Android ROM w/ WiFi tether working (well)?

Anyone? As for why I need this, please see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8125474#post8125474
Basically, I just need a mostly reliable Android ROM that doesn't get SOD or GSOD, no constant reboots, and reliable data and wifi tethering...
I am running the BlackStone 2.2 w/ Sense, and it is very reliable. Almost always boots fine, no real SOD after radio upgrade, and fast. However, data will cut out sometimes and take the radio with it, usually for about a minutes (or less), and every once in a while needs a reboot to fix. Also, WiFi tether causes a lock when I try to open it and I have to pull the battery.WiFi tether is a necessary for me now (see link above), and I'm not even sure Dev's have gotten it to work on any ROM... Thought I would ask here...
Thanks!

Yes, I did. I have read bunches and gone through a number of ROM's. I am not clear after reading them. Sorry if that is a problem, but I'm not, so I am asking for clarification. Since I am not sure what ROM to go with, it seems one post here is more efficient then a different post in every rom thread...
Thanks.
When you say reliable do you mean no SOD or screen freezes? If so, I'd say no. There is no 100% reliable android build yet.

There's only a hand full of ROM here, why not try them out for yourself? If one didn't work, try another one.
Move question to android general! Android on hd2 is very much still in early development, so answer to your question is no.
They are very good but not perfect.

well if you gone thru a number of roms then you should be able to tell two things:
1, what rom works for you ....
2, and that alot of people experience what you did and there are fixes ,
I do have an idea which ones work for me, but I never really needed tether before, so I never tested. Also, I know there is no perfect ROM. I could deal w/ freezes, which are fixed by killing the G-Sensor. I just wanted something w/ no SOD and wifi tether/data...
I think I have my answer from this thread. Thanks to those that helped.
Thanks...

I've been using hyperdroid for about a week now pretty much without any problems. Wifi tethering works great, infact I am currently using it to post this!
using nexus one android build 2.2 frg33 mccm 1.5 rom with no problems.. everything works perfectly
i've switched off the screen rotation to avoid freezing.. enabled when necessary with a simple shortcut on the home screen..
Thanks everyone. Loving HyperDroid. Now I just have to figure out how to disable the G-Sensor (was built into my previous ROM)... lol
Have cleaned this thread. Its simply not fair to start a war on someone's thread when all they are looking for is a little help, albeit that help might have been asked for originally in the wrong forum.
Please be aware of all of XDA rule 2 here. Also if you can't answer the question or stay on topic then please don't post. It saves a lot of aggravation.
Looking forward to your cooperation here.

I tried quite a few Android ROMs and in my opinion, while great progress has been made, none is good enough for daily use. Unless you are an enthusiast and willing to live with rather frequent freezes and some missing functionality.
This being said, I enjoyed tremendously playing with Android, and I believe it will be my next system. However, I'm using my phone for business and simply cannot live with an unreliable system.

"The new guy 6"... any one use it?

Hello i noticed the thread for "the new guy" rom is gone. I have also noticed that the new guy 6 is out, but i cant find any information on it. Is there something wrong with this rom build? i am currently running new guy 5, which is one of the only roms ive been able to get usb tether working on.
i also notice the creater andrizoid has been disabled on the forums. i hope someone could shed some light on this for me.

Think there was Warez in his release.
Ya lame right? Think it was Swype(that ****ty worthless keyboard)
Interesting. Ive never even looked that that keyboard.
so otherwise the rom is safe to use?
any one know where a change log could be found?

He was acting like a little ***** and doesn't even know what BD did and nothing affected him. He is just another dumb noob Oh well I am so sad I am on his ignore list
now that my thread is completely derailed. let me try to bring it back on track.
is this rom otherwise save to use? is there a place where i can find a change log? is there a forum?
i dont necessarily need this rom, but i need usb tether, and no other roms i have tried work. so i feel stuck to it right now. maybe i just wont upgrade it.
Yes, the rom is completely safe to use.
the creator of the rom was using another roms framework without permission, so this is why he was shut down. i was running newguy 6 for a few days and it ran great, but have since switched to warm 2.2, the rom that newguy is based off of.
use this rom instead - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=809985
It wasn't just because of swype, some people need to read up a bit more before posting incorrect information. He was using framework, from a different rom, and passing it off as his own, not giving credit, etc...
The rom i posted above is much better, you will be happy with that one.

I can definitely vouch for Myn's Warm rom. And to be specific, Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS 3 rom is not available in rom manager.
"The New Guy" rom developer broke the rules on many different fronts and has since been banned by the senior members who built this community.
It would be greatly beneficial for you to research and learn how to use the recovery mode of your phone to manually install roms. You're already rooted, so if you haven't already, spend the 6 bucks for Titanium backup pro and Root Explorer, they are worthy investments.
Always read the rom developers full original post (OP) before installing roms.
Most will tell you that you need to wipe 3 things prior to installing a new rom:
1)Wipe data/Factory reset
2)Wipe cache
3)Wipe the Dalvik cache
Some devs will tell you that you do not need to do all steps if you are upgrading the same rom, but again, read the OP to be sure.
I hope this helps. Good luck my friend.
Im pretty familiar with the process. but im also lazy. and my laziness usually wins. thanks for the help, ill check out this rom.
so i have checked out the suggested rom. seems to work well, but im back to having usb tether not work. ive tried quite a few roms, and the only one that works is the newguy 5
i really dont understand how no one else is having this issue. what could be different between these roms?
when i plug my phone into usb, and select mobile broadband connect, i get something called "android phone" as an unknown device. the modem hardware does not show up at all. any suggestions?
Flash 10.1 will not install on NewGuy 6
not to go crazy off track again, but i believe he said that his rom was based off myns. there were obviously a lot of changes made to it-your example about usb tethering working on it and not on myns. its like building a rom based off the htc release and saying that you didnt actually do anything with it, all roms start somewhere. the actual reason it got deleted though was beacuse of swype, using other roms as a base is in no way against the rules. rebranding a rom-which isnt what he did-is.
just my two cents. stoney go ahead and freak out on me, we all know how much of a myn follower you are, which is fine. but stop trash talking our devs, things like that drive people away from our community. ive seen quite a few threads pop up about the bullying and unnecessary asshole behavior thats been going on lately. if you dont like the rom, dont use it. nobody is asking you to, but that doesnt give you a reason to trash talk it.
i personally am building a rom based off nils business sense-its the closest i could find to the stock latest htc release-im on ubuntu and cant use the ruu-but ill be incorporating a lot of the theme and overall feel of tng, plus a few of the features he added. if your looking for something that feels similar to tng, keep yur eyes on the boards for the next few weeks,

[ROM Q] What is the latest or best (in your opinion) MIUI Rom for the EVO?

Just as the Title asks. I've looked but some threads are really old. So what do you guys think?
Also, what is THIS lock screen!? It's awesome and I love it!!!!!
Thanks in advanced guys and gals!!! Another thing i was looking for was those backgrounds with those sexy girls wearing headphones and it looks all artsy and ****. cant find the plain backgrounds anywhere....
Well the most important thing to know: a new build gets released every Friday form the Chinese team, then a English team ports it to EVO usually over the weekend for a weekend release. So every week there's a new build.
Latest _English_Port_ is 1.14 ... but 1.21 just got released today (revs are by date) BUT the Chinese team found a bug and is supposed to be releasing a patch tomorrow. The MIUI team responsible for porting the weekly builds apparently already ported the 1.21 but isn't posting it as a official build yet as they are waiting to see what the original dev team is releasing as a patch first.
I would say the current 1.14 is easily the most stable build, the new 1.21 coming out has some UI changes, so it could actually introduce bugs, but only time will tell. Honestly though MIUI has come a long long way.
I really like MIUI rom but not having multitouch on the gingerbread keyboard kills it for me. Hopefully they can get it working soon.

This 1.7 seemed to run the best for me with the included kernel 1.14 had a lot of reboots. I loved the UI and the built in extras like the traffic monitor and the blacklist options but found it too unstable for me. I went to evervolv 2.3a15 and love it so far. Gps doesnt track as well as miui but its an apples oranges comparison. Basically if you can get a stable daily driver miui going on your evo then enjoy olit. The thread in the general section has a lot of believers for sure.
so far 1.14 has been the most stable for me, but myself and many others have been experiencing a problem where whoever we are talking to hears an echo of their voice. The devs are gonna try to work that out for the next build which should be awesome. I'd wait till the final of 1.21 is released.

Okay, so after looking over MIUI and the themes and lockscreen mods I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY RREEAALLLLYY WANT IT!!!!!
But...there's just one problem...
After looking over the directions, and the HBOOT S-OFF thing, nothing seems certain. So many different sites and threads say that some this way doesn't work, this way breaks your 4G, and I can not for the life of my find out how to simply just get MIUI on my flipping Evo! To be honest, from everything I've looked up so far it looks like a ****ing death trap. No joke.
And whats up with partial English? From what I've seen things look like they're in English. How much is still in Chinese?
Is there anyone out there that can show me (or tell me) a very direct way and not an "iffy" way of flashing MIUI. I have Clockwork and I don't know how to check to see if I have S-OFF. I got my Evo 4G the day it came out, so does that mean the way I rooted it back then turned S-OFF for me?
I thought S-OFF was only for people who got the new OTAs and couldn't root their Evos.
I'm sorry but MIUI ust confused the HELL out of me and I'm so willing to take a leap of faith because I want it so bad, but bricking or messing up my Evo ust isnt worth it. Help anyone?
My whole ROM is in english. I'm using the current stable release and it's the best ROM I've used after UD.
The one thing I noticed is that my 3G speeds seem to be slower. I'm on wifi a lot so it isn't too big if a deal but still annoying.

Well, if you have flashed a custom recovery(Clockwork), then I think you must have s-off. The easiest way to check your s-off status is to turn your phone off, then reboot by holding down power+volume-down. The phone will boot into the h-boot screen. At the top will be several pieces of info including your s-off or s-on status. Make sure you do not have any custom roms or other .zip files in the main directory on your sd card before you do this as the hboot will try to flash it when it detects it.
The very first post in the general forum has a lot of really good info as well. Another excellent helpful resource is the IRC channel for the Evo. The link is in the post.
S-off just means security off, by the way. You can't flash custom roms or other stuff until you have s-off.

Wow. That cleared up quite a bit! I'm pretty sure I have a few custom ROMs in the main directory of my SD but when I flashed HBOOT it didn't automatically do/flash anything. I checked and I had S-OFF, I guess it was obvious.
So MIUIs flash ust lke any other ROM...?
comment to ur comment earlier- the most up-to-date "stable" rom is always going to be the that they have stickied.

yes they just flash like a normal rom. But since they do release an update almost weekly, it would be hard to do a complete wipe everytime and titatium back up everything. so miui already has a Miui Backup program in it that will make changing to the next release go smoothly without much of a hassle.
I flashed the MIUI ROM last night and my phone rebooted on its own like a handful of times when I was sleeping. I kept hearing the vibrate sound and seeing the white "HTC EVO 4G" screen like when you first turn on the phone. NOT happy!!
I had the same thing happen to me I love the rom but that's why I went back to my warm rom

HELP IMPROVE FUTURE WP7 ROM DEVELOPMENt BY DISCUSSING PROS AND CONS TO BUILDS!!!!!

To start off with I am impressed with some of the newer builds of the wp7 os on hd2 as they have included the hd7 phone id built into rom making the Chevron mod very simple, but there are few more issues
1 there are many issues with live services even after u input os key
2 there are errors when it come to communicating with live services to download apps
3 phone still restart many times and will some times go into what i call a dead sleep ( its where phone goes into standby and will not go back into unlock screen) you have to wait 3-4 minutes and even then u r lucky if u don't have to pull out battery and reset phone.
4 although newer builds often allow u to have more unregistered apps working they still have communication issues with wifi/network
5. camera is working on some builds but after picture is taken it comes out a bit green
The point for this thread is for u to post your links to your favorite builds of the wp7 and help future development buy discussing pros and cons to different builds
my fav build
[19 Feb][ROM] blackSideSeven v1.2.7004
LINK: http://hotfile.com/dl/106013534/837ae7f/elMInStER.blackSideSeven.1.2.7004.rar.html
rom has built in Chevron
and phone id is HD7
when u install language is in Polish so just change it to English or what ever language u want
I have had more luck with this build than any other one i have used it is much less buggie than the other builds i have tried, if u don't mind changing the language give this rom a try
All the builds are more or less the same at this point, this thread is completley useless. Future rom dev is helped by replying to the devs topics with issues etc.
I have none of teh issues you have, everything worked fine and no restarts. The green issue though is a well known bug.
PS. How has the rom got a built in "kitchen" , A kitchen is what is used to build a rom, So im confused on how the rom could have a kitchen built in?

+1.... I completely agree.
The only difference between roms right now is the lockscreen and maybe a theme color or 2. They all have same tweaks and features.
I think a lot of the issues that the op is having sounds like they may be cause by a sd card that wp7 doesn't like... try using a different sd card. Class 2 or 4 sandisk are usually good.

Okay look the point to this thread is for people to simply discuss roms they like and give quick links to rom ect.. yes people can simply reply on the actual developers threads, but the point to this is for people to discuss what the like and dont like about different roms without having to go to the various threads, so this is not a useless thread... And yes the green cam is a well know bug but, all i was doing was stating some of the most common bugs, and although u may not have some of the other ones im sure there are people out there who experience the same ones

pretty much everything on your list is SD card related and effects all ROMs if you have a dodgy card, available ROMs are just clones of the original release with a few mods which they all use, the reason for this is its virtually impossible to make the same kind of changes as in android or WM..
the green tint on camera is a driver issue, which can not be solved with cooks, the market place issues are largely SD related but the freeze is very much a MS bug, the main battery issue which you didnt mention is driver related
im not saying this thread has no point, but i am saying your a bit too early,
but in the spirit of the thread
Dont bother with any other rom just now, there is no point with patches just around the corner that no one on here is capable of using, other than the DFT team, many of the bugs on these other roms were created only after the rom was fiddled with in the first place, however, if your not capable of following the instructions and installing the DFT release than use one of the newer ones as its much much easier

Okay look the point to this thread is for people to simply discuss roms they like and give quick links to rom ect.. yes people can simply reply on the actual developers threads, but the point to this is for people to discuss what the like and dont like about different roms without having to go to the various threads, so this is not a useless thread... And yes the green cam is a well know bug but, all i was doing was stating some of the most common bugs, and although u may not have some of the other ones im sure there are people out there who experience the same ones

There are no pros and cons to the different roms because they are all the same... same build, same tweaks... only difference is maybe lockscreen and theme colors. Thats why there is no point to a thread like this yet... not until there is a difference between roms.
Also, if your phone is restarting and having issues with it going to sleep like you said, that is caused by using a sd card not compatible with wp7. Many of your other problems are probably also caused by that. Try a different SD card. Anyone having problems with the phone restarting ever or any lag or freezing should try a different sd card. Problems like that are not from specific roms... like I said, all the roms work pretty much exactly the same.

To start off with I am impressed with some of the newer builds of the wp7 os on hd2 as they have included the hd7 phone id built into rom making the Chevron mod very simple, but there are few more issues
1 there are many issues with live services even after u input os key
2 there are errors when it come to communicating with live services to download apps
3 phone still restart many times and will some times go into what i call a dead sleep ( its where phone goes into standby and will not go back into unlock screen) you have to wait 3-4 minutes and even then u r lucky if u don't have to pull out battery and reset phone.
4 although newer builds often allow u to have more unregistered apps working they still have communication issues with wifi/network
5. camera is working on some builds but after picture is taken it comes out a bit green
The point for this thread is for u to post your links to your favorite builds of the wp7 and help future development buy discussing pros and cons to different builds

all you have to do to fix the random restart is go to this link ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918993 ) that will fix it at least it did for me its a memory card problem

Ok, i edited my post a little to make it more clear that I was agreeing with you.
agreed @ this thread is pretty pointless until there are actual differences in the ROMs. Otherwise there is no actual use to anyone.

Oh, sorry. I thought you were talking about post#4.... I was wondering how that was not clear that I was agreeing with you... didn't even notice the other post til now. Your request makes much more sense now... sorry about the misunderstanding... it's fixed now.

i agree to, all the roms are the same expect some language. other the that
you still have to do the same
Problem with phone shuting off? it's your memory card
can't use marketplace? activate you phone that's it.
Problem with one side working on your headphones when
talking on the phone? Shut off xbox live restart phone that should work.
well it works for me.

Hindsight is 20/20..[Kill this thread]

Started this thread about Zero Hero before I was aloud to post in the Dev threads (yes i was a noob, still am) But I have learned since then....So I edited it in the hopes that no one will post anything else in here and the thread will die!!! I know I bumped it by editing....but lets let this thread die.....
Please take all comments about Zero Hero to the proper Development thread---> Zero Hero Sense 3.5
this shouldve been posted in the roms thread.
Or not at all

How is it running? I'm running it on my phone for about half a day and it seems okay.. i was expecting it to run a little bit faster! And r u having problems with sms because I can't seem to receive any messages?
Sorry, I know im a NOOB and all, but is this not the general discussion forum? This is a general discussion about a particular ROM....If i am wrong please correct me and I will gladly STFU and keep my comments to myself.
And for the record the ROM is quite sluggish, reboots when disconnected and reconnected to/from a car charger, incoming calls went straight to VM when answered, mad battery drain, will not reconnect to WIFI....not sure about messages yet...
But on the bright side, it is eye candy.

It always will be sluggish because Sense is a memory hog and the Hero has small memory to begin with. I personally don't run into any reboot excepts for the few after the first boot. As for calls and texts I can't test that because my Hero is deactivated. But I haven't had any issues with WiFi ever on my builds both with college WiFi up in Santa Cruz and at home here in San Diego.

Just calling it like i see it. Not knocking any work, as it is way over my head. The WIFI just kept reverting to "error", no text messages came through, but they did save to Google voice so i did find them...but when I couldn't pick up the calls, I had to abandon this one for now...
Everything else looks awesome from here!
Yea there is a sms problem with this rom.. many of my friends called me asking why I didn't reply to their message but I never received em. Other than that this rom is very nice!!
Fix has already been worked up.

Just wanted to put in my two cents on this rom. I absolutely love this rom. I tend to run aosp Roms since they are pretty lightweight for our processor and quick. This rom isn't as fast as an aosp rom can be. It does however run quick enough that I don't mind the occasional hang up or lag. I hadn't ran a sense rom in over a year and a half. But I do like this one.
I tend to only use my phone to make calls, the occasional text, and to tether my tablet which this rom seems to do wonderfully. When I was running jaybobs rom I was happy with the clock settings at 352 and 532. I have it cranked up to 768 with this rom. Never had been able to overclock that high until his kernal and was actually a major reason I tried this rom.
You would think that after being a member of xda for more than a year that I would have more than 3 posts but most of the time you guys explain stuff well enough that I don't need to ask any questions.
Just wanted to say thanks to all the developers and people that are willing to answer questions. It is always appreciated even if us "lurkers" don't let you know.
Thanks

From a previous lurker, time to quit lurking!!! We need more posters so we can have stuff to talk about! Like MattCrystal said, there's a lot of us out there, so let's post and make it known.
(And I'll try not to shoot down any more stupid questions... unless they're deserving)

YES
I 100% agree....LONG LIVE ZERO HERO
The RC1 zero hero kicks ass!!
probably one of the fastest sense roms for me.
how do you check to see if the cpu is being clocked correctly.
i keep using and leaving sense because the lag is insane compared to asop.

Its a 2 year old phone.. your asking it to do something it CAN'T do. Fact.
I would like to just stop in and say thanks to all who have worked on this. Have not been into the droid scene for long but have learned so much. This rom is my favorite sense type rom. Small time issues that can be overlooked are fine by me. And after backing this rom up and then booting back into stock. Then using titanium backup to back up Sprint TV and a few other things. Then Booting back into Zero Hero and restoring those apps they work flawless. (sorry i have a child who likes to watch that sprint tv, keeps her occupied when im busily getting something done)
Thank you all of you guys. Out of 5 roms i have tried me and my girlfriend like this one the best.
