A lot of the ROMs are pre rooted. I am using Aura because of the Deblur but the wifi is iffy. Others like the Alien ROM, it performs very well but the battery life OC'd can be a bit short.
Need to be unlocked first though, before flashing any ROMs
true dat!! check out mramirezusa's automatic unlock utility in the dev thread.
I know it needs to be unlocked lol ill be looking into that today
No cm7 or miui this is not good .. maybe I was wrong with Atrix ... its just got those damn spex and I strarted jumping ..

CM7 in pre-beta currently... main things that don't work are camera/camcorder & fingerprint scanner... oh, and webtop. You can find links in general section or in my Noob guide at top of general section.

Thanks bud I promise ill will finally get around to rooting my 11month old has been acting a fool
Aura seems to be everybody's choice Tom manager doesnt work on Atrix?

I am using Aura as my daily. On build #8 right now. No issues with WiFi as was previously stated. This is a rock solid ROM, and the dev is constantly updating. I would seriously give this a try if I were you.
With CM7 being in pre-beta still, there are a number of functions still not working per the release notes. If you just got the phone, I would go with Aura or Alien to start with.

Agreed. Although CM7 was giving me amazing battery life..without the webtop and fingerprint scanner..I couldn't stick with it (and my guess is if you've got the lapdock..your gonna want a webtop friendly rom ). I really hope they incorporate webtop and fingerprint into final builds of CM though..
Me too buddy I love me some webtop on my laptop dock
Ok so I just rooted having some trebles with cwm recovery but I think I seen a post on that
Problem is I downloaded rommanager and flashed recovery through it. But now I have not a clue to gain access to it.. lol ill do some reading but if your cool you would give me a cheat sheet guide to it.
Thanks you guys are awesome!

Aroot is the best rooting option and it allows non market app installation. No roms yet but you can use setcpu to underclock and save battery. Just some tips on battery life...if you are having less than expected battery life try a full charge while the phone if off and if you still are having problems, fully charge your phone and do a hard reset. These seemed to have helped many users expieriencing any problems. Most of all though, enjoy your new beast!

Pseudo ROM is Gingerblur its really good changes the look of everything to 2.3 aroot is the best method there's also a webtop mod that allows running the "laptop" feature once connected to something via hdmi. That is everything that is out there for the phone at this point

Can someone tell me the best GB rom out there and how to root it and stuff? Sorry I'm such a noob at this. I only have experience in jailbreaking lol
The best GB rom is the one that your phone responds to the best. Try em all once you get root. Theres a ton of tutorials on rooting. Read in the Development section for which way you feel comfy doing. There are one click rooters and then you can do it manually.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081930 Start here.
^^ good list of choices for roms/kernels/radios but if you're not even rooted yet, you will definitely need to check the Ref/Guide page out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013013
Here is how to root, just follow along and everything will work perfectly. If you have problems hit up IRC or check out a couple video's on youtube to help you along.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996616
As for the best rom, it is best for you to check them out, download a couple that look interesting to you (be sure to read on how to flash a rom/radio/kernel) and then try each one out for a couple days and see which one you like best.

I have rooted and un-rooted a couple of times and have found it best to be rooted. so much more freedom. I have my doubts about how much good the OTA updates actually do. A couple of patches/fixes and it will still be buggy. just my two cents...

I've tried a bunch of the roms. The bamf 3 rc4 was my favorite for the first few days. It was very fast and I really liked some of the unique things they did.
I'm using Gingertheory now. It's similar to the bamf, but it even has more loaded in things so you can mod the layout real easy. I finally feel like I have a unique phone, and not just a rooted rom.
I loaded up about 10 roms in 2 days, so it doesn't take long once you figure it out.

Same with this guy. The Das Bamf 3.0 RC4 was awesome. little buggy, like i couldn't make phone calls to specific people, but others i could. Gingertheory = complete awesomeness. and it is crazy fast too.
Current rom: Gingertheory 4.5.1 soon 5.0
Try 'em all.
Just make sure to do a nandroid backup (through clockwork recovery mode) after any ROM you like.
And...
Do not use ROM Manager or Kernal Manager to flash anything.
Use Clockwork recovery....most developers will tell you the same.

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 definitely need something to flash before I go crazy!
NOTE: this isn't a "what should I flash onto my phone now" type board, this is just a "I'm bored and realized I'm going crazy cause I don't have anything to flash."
by the way, I'm definitely not asking for any ETA's for any new roms.
Lol I know the feeling. My wife has a bionic and she finally let me root it and debloat it. But she will not let me put a custom rom on it. I so want to flash dhacker ICS on it I would put eclipse on it also but she is on. 902 and nitro is still working on the new version.

My dad upgraded to the Note 2. Gave me his old x2. I've posted this before.
Anyways, I've finally gotten around to sitting down with this thing, and have gone for the giddy euphoria of a fresh hacking expedition to banging my head on the desk so hard i think i need a new keyboard.
I have plenty of experience rooting and ROMing. Rooted dozens of devices, many of them difficult. Flashed the crap out of my phone (oh, odin >_>) and my tablet (cwm goodness). But motoflashing is a whole new beast and i'm losing it. I've been doing this for 10 hours straight now (its 5:30 AM ATM) many hours spent trying to root the damn thing (most root methods failed in bizarre and spectacular ways) but i finally got it done. I now have a rooted 2.3.4 stock dx2. and i think i finally got a handle on SBFing.
of course the natural instinct is to go flash a rom. and since my current phone (droid charge) doesn't have a (functional) ICS rom, i figure, damn, this thing need to have ICS or higher on it. well... no. i've spent hours reading every sticky and search result thread i can find and i tell you, i still don't comprehend how i'm supposed to flash a custom rom onto this thing. I don't see anything about a custom recovery outside of ancient posts from the "ow wow, froyo!" era, you can't SBF-flash a ROM like you can with odin, and for the life of me i can't comprehend what bootstrapping your phone is.
so, could someone PLEASE explain to me in not-motorola-specific terms exactly what i'm doing here? i'm a pretty technologically proficient guy, i can figure it out if i just could get a simple explanation anywhere. hopefully someone can take pity on the motonoob and help me out here, i would be highly thankful.
(also realize i have been awake 24+ hours with zero caffeine and not enough sugar, so if this sounds like the ravings of a madman or if i missed something painfully obvious, i am very sorry >_<)
This is the custom recovery for the x2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...android) backup and recovery of your Droid X2
That tutorial will walk you through how to get familiar with it. Once you do that this is what you do. I'm going to use CM10 as an example.
1. Learn how to boot into custom recovery (link above.)
2. Download CM10 and JB GApps from the CM10 thread in development section.
3. Place both files on your external card.
4. Boot into custom recovery.
5. Wipe data/factory reset
6. Wipe cache partition.
7. Select "install zip from SD card"
8. Select choose zip from SD card
9. Select (flash) cm10- install
10. Select (flash) GApps- install
11. Reboot.
12. Install patched CM7 bootstrap found in the cm7 thread in development section.

ok, so apparently I did just miss something obvious. Looks like after I get the recovery its standard zip flashing, which I feel right at home doing.
So that makes my rant up there seem pretty stupid (and/or noobish) I guess ah well, ya live and you learn.
I'm gonna get some sleep before I try for that recovery tho. *clicks thanks*

Our 4.0 ROMs are very buggy. If you are set on ICS I'd go with CM9... surprisingly CM10 is more stable and its Jellybean (still has its issues though.)

well that's unusual sure then, jellybean. Any reccomendations? I saw several different JB roms.
There should only be two JB ROMs for the x2. CM10 and AOKP. AOKP is still a work in progress and has more issues than CM10... I would start with CM10.

Haha nice, you're on your way. Just remember if you are using any of the CM ROMS, Paranoid, AOKP, MIUI you'll need the CM7 patched recovery after you install the ROM.
okay awesome. Can I have a link to that? * is booting into cm10 now*
Here ya go. http://www.mediafire.com/?pzz4413k6wggcao
Same install process, and it looks exactly the same, but it's needed for these ROMs.

No, the paranoidandroid port was built from CM9 ICS. CM9 was good but not as stable as CM10.

up and running on CM10! so awesome. thanks for your guys's help.
but why cant i receive anything over xlink? any ideas? that's a must-have app for me....not a dealbreaker for the ROM, but it might be for using the phone as my daily driver.

Interesting. Pretty cool it's multi-platform. Would be nice if it worked for the PS3
