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?

Tazz and Nonsense are both very good. As stated earlier the xtr roms are very good also.
Did you say you are recreating pacman? Let me know if you need help testing it. Pacman has always been a favorite for me.

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.
What's up guys. I need some help picking the best ROM for me. I know there's tons of them on here, by I'm a novice to Android, and honestly don't even really get te difference between firmware and a ROM. I want some very specific feature which is also why I made this thread seeking your help.
I'm an old iPhone user.. did all the jailbreaking and all myself and even though I think the TB is better than my old iPhone I would love to incorporate some of the "fluidity" it had. Specifically I'm looking a ROM that wouldn't interrupt my music when I get a text to play to notification sound, instead play it on top of the song playing at the moment. I would also like to initiate access the play/pause skip buttons without having to unlock my TB, like double pressing the home button on an iPhone and the play buttons pop up even if you weren't playing any music.
The last and most important to me would be this one: on the iPhone there is a security option that if you have a password set and let's say the phone is stolen and someone tries unlocking the phone more than an allowed number of times(set by the user) it erases EVERYTHING on the phone. These are all I can think off right now. Like I said, I'm a novice to Android and I will appreciate any help and advice I can get. I already had my TB rooted but I just updated the verizon firmware on my TB not knowing that it would un-root it.. so I'm trying to find a ROM ASAP.
Thanks
Edit: I would also like to make my TB run on gingerbread and improve the battery life.
I suggest BAMF roms. I'd give you the website link but I may get banned for it.

It's really about trying them out for yourself. Alot of what you want is available through apps. Not even sure you need to root.
As far as bamf ROMs, they decided to leave xda but if you google them, you should find them.
XDA does not like you linking other sites that do the same thing.
I suggest them because they ate always updating their roms, they have a good group of people happy to assist you, and the roms are just really well done. Chingy does great work too. But apparently posting to another forum gets you banned these days. Google "Team BAMF". :-]

it is against the rules on xda, and its their site.
OP, I've been using gingertheory, which is a gb rom with a hybrid sense of 3.0 and 2.1. Very smooth and fast. The same dev also makes a senseless version of GB that is very light and you can add custom lockscreen to that can have audio controls.
EFoxwell said:
Since when did they start enforcing all the rules. I forgot... They cherry pick them. Back on topic, cm7 rc1.2 is good. If you aren't into sense, it is definitely my #1 suggestion.

You seem to really have a problem with this. Why not just move on instead of complaining in every thread.
Eh, dont waste your time with bamf. Synergy is where its at IMO. If youre still kinda new, Droid Theory does awesome support. Hes one of the nicest people Ive seen on the boards, but he doesnt consider himself a Dev. lol. Ive heard CM7 is real nice too though if you arent so much of a sense fan.

The one that fits your needs the best, which may or may not reflect the opinions of those in the thread. In short, you need to research and/or try many different ones. The lazy way of asking others won't give you the best results.
Synergy is my favorite. I've tried CM7, BAMF 3.0, Gingertheory, Injectedtheory, and Tesla Coil.
CM7 was my second fav, but Synergy was just farther ahead in development. They are doing nightlys now and things are very smooth. Running on the newest leaked GB base and radio, and it runs on ziggys kernel, which seems to be second to none.

Now that Netflix has officially come out for the Thunderbolt, I am sticking with the official MR2 ROM that is the same as stock but rooted and deodexed. All of the apps I want to run work fine plus I have root for things like Titanium, LBE Privacy Guard, SetCPU and VNC so I see no reason to change. I was considering it for Netflix but since that works fine there is no need to. Perhaps when the other roms have stable releases rather than just nightlies/betas/RCs I will switch to a custom rom.

Issue with video recording on XRon
i've been running Xron RC1 for about a week and was stunned to find that everything was working perfectly! Sure enough last night i attempted to record a video of my kids with the standard htc video recording app and I get FC's every time I try and start recording.
I can however use qik and it seems to record and store it well.
thoughts? / suggestions.
Evo 3d
Rooted, rom'd, themed.
I think all the ROMs are about the same speed wise. The question is do you want it to look stock or do you want something thats been themed? Some are heavily themed you wouldn't even know it was the 3D. Others are just a few modifications to better the look. Also the other question is what apps do you want some ROMs are completely striped of everything others are untouched and yet others have just the apps the DEV feels are necessary.
So those are the things you really need to look at and some can only be addressed by actually flashing the ROM and using it. Example flash a ROM and everything is great then you realize that the "Recent Apps" is gone from the Notification Pulldown that maybe a deal breaker for you.
Flash them all take notes see what YOU like and what gets the job done. At the end of the day only you can make the final call.
Ignore the trolls.. last I checked this is the Q&A section guess questions aren't allowed either. Its one of "those guys" they made a mod and some people have left because of it.
Of course I like my ROM the best
I don't care much about which OS version, or TouchWiz version, I just really want TouchWiz back. Anybody know of any?

I second that, I ran Project-V longer than any other ROM. The only reason I left was CM7 became stable. But now I am actually back to Project-V.
Here are a couple themes I made for Project-V:
WP7ish Theme
Blár Theme

Their Bistro for mods is cool too
I was going to go to MeanBean. However, not sure about this Tranquility ROM. Is it even on XDA? Is it heavily themed or more stock? I am giving my phone to my father-in-law and want him to have a good ROM that just works and is close to stock in look.
just going to chime in here, if youre looking for a stock rom best bet is build yourself. it's easy enough to do if you follow some steps. sense isnt really stock imo
if youre looking for something nice to run theres plenty of roms out. best advice is try em all.
Another vote for Tranquility. I've run MeanBean for a while and it was good. Tranquility seems slightly smoother and the theming is excellent. Tranquility was on XDA, but they removed it. Now it's on www.themikmik.com
I did add Zepplinrox multitasking mod, which Mean bean already has in it. Makes a noticeable difference, especially with Sense reloads.
Is tranquility stock looking? On mikmik, it looks heavily themed.

Think I'm going to give MeanBean a shot, working on backing everything up right now.
My biggest concern is battery life, I don't sit on my phone all day so I'm mostly concerned with how the phone behaves while the screen is off; though I do like a smooth experience when it's on.
I'll post back with my initial impression of MeanBean and my experience with the battery once I've had long enough to establish a norm.
-- Question from me. Anyone recommend a kernel over the stock kernel? Maybe something with better governors or fastcharge?

For your situation I would go with OMJ 2.2. It is an ICS rom but runs super smoothe, fast, and has exceptional battery life, and everything works. OMJ also has a later version 2.6 which uses Aroma so you can customize yourself.
