As in topic. I looking for ROM's on Motorola Photon with Mulit Leanguage option. I have already CM7 with MulitLeang... but battery dramatically going down also I have some errors, so i don't like cm7 at this moment.
And I have wish to advanced users who's tested all roms, and where i can find roms (I mean tittle roms) with ML.
Thanks

ok, so my friend wants me to flash a ROM to his Optimus T for him but i have a Galaxy S 4G so i haven't dabbled in the Optimus ROMs so any suggestions on what ROM is the best?
I think p500 roms are compatible
i want suggestions of good ROMs, not compatibility
Deviod final
no longer availible
I'd go with a cyanogen rom myself. Seem's to work pretty good on mine and i've used them across several platforms. The one for this phone has several bugs at the time of this message however.
I like mik_os' unofficial port of CyanogenMod 7. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354
I've been running it several weeks, and pretty happy. My biggest complaint is it makes your phone think it's a P500, instead of a P509, so the t-mobile apps don't work and some apps aren't visible on the market that should be.
Other than that, it's been real solid.
I'm about to try a new one that is P509 specific that's based on his rom, but with T-Mobile compatible changes. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1072252
I'm assuming you've looked through the "[STICKY][REPOSITORY][UPDATED] Repository of HOWTOs, ROMs, MODs etc." at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901247
Honestly I either suck at searching through forums or there honestly isn't a whole lot of development for the photon at the moment :/. I've been trying to find a buddy of mine an awesome setup for his photon. Ive been romming my droid 2 for over a year going from Liberty to Apex to CM7 etc. overclocking and undervolting. this photon has so much more potential but where are some roms with active development??? I don't mind if they are blur-based if they feel like AOSP? But overclocking kernals and unlocking the bootloader? Should we aim for that? And is cm7 development picking up? or even miui? What are your setups for this monster of a machine?!?! and advice is appreciated

Okay, so for starters, you've got a good phone to use as a base. There are not AOSP ROM's and MIUI will come after we get CM7 booting, which is still in the works. We have a kernel right that that is OC'd to 1.3 ghz which absoluetely flies, it's great, I personally run the Home Base ROM myself. It's a legit one, but it isn't up to date with the latest OTA from Sprint, so you may be best going with the SBF file that is 198_7. So I'm Rooted/Unlocked Home Base ROM 2.1 with update 4.2 and 1.3 Kernel.
I'm looking for a Gingerbread AOSP stock ROM to attempt to port over and I'm not sure which phones are similar (Other than the Atrix, Photon, & the XOOM of course).
ASOP stock ROM is contradicting one another. If you want something to play with, I believe Peperm1nt posted a thread inn the Android Development section, good luck...
SMILE It's Not Illegal Yet
I switched from iPhone to Android last August and have been running UnNamed ever since. I love the android. I had wanted to re-flash it with a ICS ROM, but can't find many screenshots of how each rom looks like.
I noticed that the kernel was released for ICS 4.0.3 and lots of ROMS now have this in it.
Can any of you that have tried more than one of these roms comment on which rom you think is better? I'm not sure how to tell the roms apart from each other yet :/
I found and am deciding b/w these: SHOstockv2 ICS, CM9 (Not actual 4.0.3 ICS?), and Phone-Bricker.
I'm looking for a cool-looking ROM with lots of features. Those are my only requirements really when I look for roms.
Thanks guys!
Hi. We're not going to do vs. threads on new roms that have just come out or have been here for awhile.
Every phone is slightly different and what works great for you may not for the next person. The best bet is for everyone toy the roms for themselves and see what works best for them.
The reason we dont have these vs. threads is because it can very easily (and has in the past) turned into flame wars... because when one person says "I didnt like so-and-sos rom so I moved to this rom" its inadvertently putting down the work of that dev and his rom. It may not be intentional, but it happens. So to avoid that, we just dont do it.
I've read many forums and blogs regarding unofficial CM10/10.1 work on the Motorola Photon 4G. Most of what I read indicates existing ROM's from Th3Bill and others have issues with important features (wifi/data) and in some cases could even damage hardware.
Anybody have experience with the ROM below? If so, is it truly stable?
Anybody running Android 4.x on Photon 4G with most features working? What ROM and what works/doesn't?
As you can see, I am definitely n00b (nice video during registration by the way :laugh. I did search XDA and google first but I'm really just looking for an update from any users more than anything. I have 2.3.4 now and have rooted, on Ting 'carrier'. I already froze updater.apk to prevent an OTA update to 2.3.5 which I read will lock my bootloader and prevent any custom roms.

Anything can damage your hardware.
Go and attempt the installation of ICS/JB and check if you keep GSM functionality. If not, just go back to stock, MAKING SURE IT IS 2.3.4, NOT 2.3.5, as many guides teach you to. Flash KDDI radio if in US, otherwise, don't bother.

Have you tried this?? Cybik had a great CM7 ROM; it'd be great if he got a few things working on CM10.1

I saw evita in the filename but device:sunfire is the Photon 4G. Not sure what it means if the filename and description don't match.
dwegiel, point taken. I don't have the time at the moment to attempt something this unfamiliar to me especially if I end up with radio problems. Since I'm on Ting (Sprint MVNO), do I need to worry about GSM and KDDI radio at all? Also, I'm absolutely certain I'm on 2.3.4 and I have already rooted.
I was hopeful some progress had been made on Android 4.0+ for Photon/Atrix but it seems the lack of Tegra drivers is either severely hampering development or may eventually kill development all together as these products age. Thanks for the replies and to the devs for their work thus far.

There are a few jelly bean roms but yeah with the driver issue it hampers development

Went to Joker's CM9
For those who land here wondering if I ever explored the cybik ROM above: No...and I won't be either.
Using various XDA threads I unlocked the bootloader, flashed clockworkmod, Installed Joker's CM9 (beta 0.8.1) unofficial, and found gapps-ICS-signed.zip on the interwebs and installed that. I kind of jacked up my phone by accident and found this was the better solution instead of trying to fix the stock GB.
For anyone looking to move from GB...I would recommend this. I've read a lot of threads about various issues in current CM10.1 for Photon so I was hesitant to try those. CM9 feels very similar to 10.1 and as far as performance the issues on CM9 I've found: MMS requires GoMMS Pro app, no camera video (stills are fine), Swiftkey "Flow" causes force-close, and battery life seems to have decreased from GB (despite downclocking to original 1Ghz).
Pretty much everything else works...Bluetooth, GPS, calls, SMS, Chrome browser. Despite my original concerns, this was clearly the way to go. Mods you're welcome to close this up.
