Noob question here - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am new to android and I have rooted my TB with perfect storm rom and I love it. I keep hearing about this CM7 rom that everyone is waiting for. I am just wondering what is so special about CM7? What makes it so much different then other roms that are already out?

CM7 is a AOSP. No sense what-so-ever. They are great devs. Everything is customized. The support from the devs and the community is overwhelming. It is fast. M-once it gets out of beta, the release candidate , rc, are stable. CM7 was introduce to several devices as cm6, then to cm7.
I would suggest searching, and reading about cm6/cm7.

What ROM is everybody using

Hey everybody, I just order a Fascinate today and was interested in what ROM you guys/girls prefer to use. Im switching from a droid 2, and previously a droid 1, which had a great ROM community. I think its fantastic that there are so many Galaxy S phones but I think it is unfortunate that Roms are not applicable across models.
In addition to selecting what rom you are using it would be great to say what works great and what is still buggy. Please let me know if I forgot anything.

Welcome to the community!
Personally, I've been using jt1134's Super Clean with AOSP. Bubby323's Magic with AOSP is looking very promising. I tested version 0.2 for a couple days. and I think 0.3 will be a winner.
We're just getting started here in month 2 of the Fascinate's release, and there has already been some spectacular progress, mainly in the kernel department. There are some familiar names from the D1 community at work over here, and once FroYo drops for this phone, things should REALLY take off! (Seriously, who wants to work on a version of the OS that is already out of date, and will be replaced any minute now?)
I am loving that Blue Breeze!
Actually thought there would be more out there by now. Or at least some themes. I am sure, in time!

Well, I just finished an Android app that would have taken most devs about a half an hour. It took me a week, and I now have bald spots.
So I guess time is relative!
stock rom and just remove what you want
Add option for stock lol.
None of the above? I ran the update on my phone, reapplied root and continued on from there.

Me too! I know Best Buy can be shady, but God bless 'em for giving me this awesome phone for free. Well, almost, had to add a line to get it, haha.
Super Clean ROM with the puzzle lock screen running Dirk's D02_SV1200 kernel with lagfix turned on. So fast, and so much faster than my Eris.
Sent from my Fascinate using the XDA app
so how are you liking it compared to your droid 2?
using Zinc V1.0 right now. So far i'm liking it, but there's not a whole lot of difference in anything right now. I've tried jt's clean, blue breeze, aosp magic and Zinc, and they're pretty much all variations on a theme. not that there's anything wrong with that, i'm simply saying whatever you pick you can't go wrong, and it's easy to change anything you don't like about any one of them.

Froyo with Flash??

Hello XDA im a eris-aholic and im looking for a froyo rom with flash. So far ive only found 2. 1 roms that have flash but no 2.2's or am i missing something? Pls help!!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
The only one that I know of is the KaosLegendary v.19 ROM. It's a Wildfire Port, but is very visual rough and still in the alpha phase but flash does really work (probably thing that works really well as of right now). Hope this helps :3
Edit:
The reason for this is that to have Flash 10.1 of the Eris you either need to port it on the back of another 2.2 sense ROM or build it on top of out default 2.1 sense ROM with flash lite. Most (maybe all) other 2.2 ROMs for Dorid Eris are ASOP (cyanogen) which doesn't work well when mixed with the Eris and Flash.

Kaos.legendary
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Ok so I'm. Going to assume that install through pc to kaos 37 also wouldn't work well then. Is like to have the best of both worlds but legendary is still alpha and kinda funky atm IMHO. any other input would be great
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
I've had flash running on every 2. 1 sense Rom that I've flashed, but so far no luck with the 2.2 because they are all cyanogen. As of last night or the night before, the htc gratia was ported to the Eris. It's the first "working" 2.2 SENSE Rom for us. Only problem is that its still very very rough.. setup is in Chinese, no WiFi, camera issues, and to turn it off you have to do a battery pull. So, maybe in a few weeks some of our great devs will have that Rom running smoother and reliably, and maybe then, flash will work on it. Even then, there may still be issues =/ we'll see tho! Hope this helps!

Give it a month. It'll have smoothed out by then.

Or a couple of days lol. There's a few versions out now like tenzos and tazz's. Both are already looking very good.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
IMO Tenzo is on the forefront of making a useable functional 2.2 Sense ROM for our Erii.
+1 for Tenzos 2.2 Sense rom.
So far I've demo'd them both and tenzo is definitely closer to completion even though it still has bugs.... ill probably go with tenzo unless kaos pulls this through quick
And clean

Which ROM?

Which Rom do you guys suggest? I've tried KaosFroyo, and no offense, but I wasn't blown away. I'm currentlly running TazzFroyo v14 vanilla and love it, but I'm curious about Nonsensikal v10.8.1 [Froyo|Black&Blue|Vanilla]. Which do you suggest?
Tazz v14 or Nonsensikal v10.8.1
THank you!

This may not be what you are looking for, but hands down the best I have tried are the XtrRom and XtrSense ROMs.
THE most stable operating and has the best battery life I have used since rooting months ago. I love these ROMs!
Good luck!

hahahahhaa.... hes right, but i answered anyway... silly me
The only thing that held me back from trying the XTR ROMs is that I don't have Amon's recovery image, which they both require. I know this is probably a dumb question, but if I wanted to use those roms how do I get the image?

Sorry about that. I understand. I guess I have nothing to lose if I try them all. I've tried 3 or 4 now. Just need the other recovery image. I'll spend some time on it today or tomorrow.

Instead of doing that though; you should really look in to figuring out how to push Amon's on to your phone through the great guides on the forum. It may take a little time, but it REALLY helps when something goes wrong (and things really do go wrong from time to time) so that you're not like "oh ****, I'm screwed" and then fly off the handle.
The guys here are WONDERFUL at helping out -- and you can always jump in to IRC and ask specific questions. I got stuck just last week and I went in, and Conap himself helped me reinstall his ROM from the ground up (and I was stuck in stock 1.5 w/ no root lol). The other guys were also very nice and helpful, and it's a really good vibe.
I feel like a hippy saying all this sh*t, but seriously dude -- try it out. Never hurts to learn -- and from what I've experienced personally, practice gets you better every time.
PS: I like CELB -- I'm about to flash Tazz Vanilla 14 or 15 (whatever the current build is) though to try it out.

Q - Good Rom for a beginner

Hello good people,
I posted a few months ago about rooting my gf's fascinate using a mac and finally got it done. It was very easy, but now I'm a bit lost on what rom to flash, being that I'm a G2 guy and things tend to be simpler there.
Keep in mind: I would prefer to put it on the sdcard and flash via CWM. She is on EA28 and I'm not 100% positive as to whther DL09 or DJ05 will work with hers.
Lastly, I would prefer two roms to try at this time. A stock based de-binged rom, and a slick looking, froyo hybrid that is stable enough to have sms working. She is a texting monster, so sms has to work.
This forum has a lot of nice and knowledgeable members, so I look forward to the responses.

Rom recommendation for Note?

I know its personal preference but can I get some recommendations on roms for the note? Just curious what many people are using and what seems to be the preferred roms....
Thank u!

I'm also curious about finding the best ROM. I currently have a stock Galaxy Nexus, and I love that, so I'm looking for the best ROM for the Note that is as close to Stock Android as possible.
I really want to pick one up, but until there's a Clean, Non-"Samsung-y" ICS ROM, I'm holding off.
Any leads would be Very much appreciated.

Your going to have to wait much longer before anything is released, we dont even have an official release of ICS yet, nor do we have any source code, and after CM gets around to releasing a first release, even longer (probably a month or two) before it is stable enough for daily use.
