Hi all,
Had my EVO 3D now for two days and it's a great phone, the 3D features are superb (probably a novelty but i'm enjoying them for now)
I've rooted and s-off'd my phone and the bootloader is unlocked.
I've installed a few roms, mostly sense, but pretty much everyone i have tried is quite laggy, not all the time but laggy in parts, now i was under the impression that this was pretty much the same phone (bar a few bits) as the sensation.
The sensation roms that i've had were superb, no lag (or very very little) and they worked perfect for the most part.
Is this because it's not been developed for -for very long? Or is this something which we will have to get used to?
EG: If anyones wondering what i'm on about, spin your carousel around and when it's about to re-align with the last window, it jitters slightly, the sensation on lets say insert coin never did this.
I'm running leedroid at the moment, the roms good it just stutters a bit, i've also tried king cobra, mikrunny, shooterbeats, the only one i've not tried is honeycombo.
Oh and i'm using lees kernel too at 1.5ghz max 400mhz min.
I'm not having a go at the dev's because in my eyes they're a bunch of geniuses whom we could not have our beloved androids without, my hat comes off to all of them, it's just i'm noticing a fair bit of lag through all the roms i've tried.
Any one elses input on this would be good.
Cheers.
I have used a few ROM/kernel combinations that would cause my second core (CPU1) to go completely offline. Its not supposed to be on all the time (although you can set it to be); but it is supposed to come on under heavy load. This tutorial helped me solve that problem. Maybe will help you too?

Thanks m8, I did get the app, bought it too nice app but i haven't noticed any change in terms of speed or performance and it does have that irritating lag when swiping between some screens.
I know sense isn't perfect but my DHD was smoother than this with sense 3.0 roms.
EDIT: Just checked the setting within system tuner pro (has to be pro, the free one doesn't allow the switching of the cores) , don't set it to boot, set it to init.d script instead, the second core hadn't come on active until i did this, it's probably going to rinse my battery but if it makes it smoother (which it has) then great.
Thanks man.
----------------------------------
So in short.
Buy system tuner pro.
Switch on all cores, via settings - Active tweaks - force all cpu's online - init.d
Go back and select CPU from main page.
Knock up the frequency to whats safe / needed.
Enjoy a smoother rom and a shorter battery life
i like fresh never lags on my phone stock kernel its probably as close to stock as you can get but it has a lot of goodies i don't like all the flashy colors of other rom's if that sounds like what u like check out fresh

I will do m8, thanks.
I've been living with the Desire HD and Sensation for some time now and the roms on both of those phones are superb, no lag whatsoever, they just work and i only realised how well when i put the two of them together and swiped the carousel, the sensation was about 10fps better off, very noticable when you compare them, i really hope the dev's get their heads together on this.

Yea i'm using Leedroid at the moment, it is the fastest rom out there for the GSM EVO3D but i think there is still room for improvement.
What is the smoothest sense 3.0 rom?
And when i say smooth i mean no lag, no stutter, no glitches, no nothing, just a smooth, as you would have liked it rom.
Some ppl say rom's are smooth and i find them to be laggy, for instance (no offence Lee) Leedroid's rom is laggy, but everything works!
Need a rom which works and is smooth as butter, like coredroid on the sensation.
Quickest rom i've ever seen, frame rate is ridiculous.
Any suggestions???
Blackend is pretty smooth but I only switch between EVOZone and blackened, haven't tried anything outside of those two

i was like you until i found out about this rom
sense 3.0
super smooth, just like sense 3.5 smooth
Thanks for replying, I should have said, GSM only, as i'm in the UK.
i'm loving warm rom right now. i'm on cdma, but they have a gsm version. hasn't been updated in a while, but latest nightly is amazing.

i should probably try out eternity though.... so hard to theme but i hear its great
Hmmm, Eternity 3.0 isnt compatible with GSM? I know the 3.5 one is.

Moving to Q&A
I too would very much like a smooth 3.0 ROM. Obv would prefer sense 3.5 but I find there are too many bugs. Unfortunately I'm on gsm so there are not much options at the mo. Starting to wish I got a sensation (even with the lack of 1gb RAM)

Warm TwoPointThree might be your best bet. It is also pretty smooth, but not quite as good as Eternity. You can however remove some of the 3D effect on the Rosie and make it just 2D and that makes it more smooth, the option to do that is in Warm Tweaks. Eternity also has the same thing in the same place called Eternity Tweaks.
I have the same problem looking for a smooth and stable GSM rom...and all sense 3.5 seem to have something not working.
Isn't the GSM version of InfectedROM Eternity a nightly sense 3.5 build? I tried it 2 days ago, battery went from 95% to 13% in 4-5 hours of stand by...and it wasn't system tunners fault.

The lack of ram isn't all that much in all honesty, 768MB is more than enough for the rom's that we're running.
Plus the amount of attention the sensation gets is staggering when you compare it to the 3vo, i too wish i would have got the XE, it's a stellar handset, at stock it's good, put ICS on it and it's blazing.
However, don't know the 3vo too much, if the right dev's pop over to this then i can see the evo being a beast, it's got the hardware, it's got 3d which not many phones can boast, it's also got a decent battery and nice screen too, plus i've dropped mine i dont' know how many times and it just bounces
ANYWAY, back to the rom, up until now, probably King Cobra is the best, although once i have all my apps installed and the rom has settled a bit, it's a bit clunky. Everything does work though, and it's themeable, which is always nice.
Wish we had coredroid man, crazy rom that on sense 3.

Yea i tried warm rom quite a while ago and i seem to remember getting fc's, can't remember exactly what for, i might check it out.
I miss sense 3 plus i've never played a 3d game on my phone.
Sense 4 is where it's at tho, such a nice interface.

It is a nightly yea, which means that older releases are sometimes better than the newer ones, tried a few, but documentation on whats been good and whats not involves sifting through the many pages which make up the thread, not a bad rom tho.
Best batter life i was getting was with Mikrunny 1.11, got nearly two days on med - low usage clocked @ 1.18Ghz, no need for any more as it's smooth, it's just ur missing features like 3d gaming and it's not got a theme besides Phikal's which isn't complete, still a good theme tho.

Obvious things like working data and WiFi. 3D and 4G mean nothing to me.
95% of themed ROMs look pretty terrible, so I usually refrain from those. The 5% includes Warm, Eternity, and SupraROM.
I lean more towards ICS these days, but the battery drain (even without bluetoothd) is pretty horrendous, and it's still not completely stable.
All of those things mixed together means that I'm really looking forward to data and WiFi on the Sense 4.0 port...
I'm just looking for an optimized rom which is either an optimized stock rom or an stable port with all features working.
Most important for me when I consider to use is that it has the essential parts working, if the 3D part is not working that is something I can understand, but I think its important to have that working to.
Because the 3D makes our device stand out from the crowd. Also an reason for choosing an custom rom is because the overclocks, because our devices have much more in them then the standard 1.2Ghz clock.
I look mainly for tweaks/optimizations that make the phone run faster, smoother, and get better battery life. I also love eye candy, but most of the themed roms look really cheesy IMO. Myn's Warm has always kept it classy and sexy, love the green/transparancy theme it's had since the debut on the Evo 4G. Definitely looking for stability and functionality though. I could care less about 3D (face it, it's a gimmick to show off to your friends once and never use it again), and 4G coverage is so spotty and useless indoors that it's hard to miss. Extra features are also a plus. So my favorite roms:
Warm 2.3: Sexy, classy, super fast/smooth, and everything works perfectly. Definitely the best Sense rom and I have been a fan of Myn's work since the early OG Evo days.
MIUI: Really fast, different look and feel, different features like pop up text messages, and great battery life. Although I do have to use LauncherPro because I can't stand not having an app drawer with all my icons littered across my home screens.
CM9: I WANTTTTT. ICS is freaking awesome and I love it but due to it being in the alpha stages I can't use it as a daily. I tried, but data dropping in and out, wifi connection issues, frequent force closes, no camera, and horrific battery life keep me from using it till development progresses further.

I look for a modified rosie I hate the arched rosie Chase its all jagged. Other than that just data and WiFi. I can't wait for the data on the sense 4.0 port
Bang from my Shooter!!!
1) Everything working. Seems a little ridiculous to me to run a rom that breaks otherwise working features just to say you're running it...
2) Aesthetically pleasing. Eternity, MIUI, and Warm all got it right. Seems like most of the rest just throw in highly contrasting colors (read: ugly) and icons that all look almost identical and call it a day...
3) Tweaks and modifications. It has to be able to do something that stock can't.
4) No Bloat. Not even a little bit.
5) Dev support. This is kind of a throw back to #1. We have some amazing devs around here making already great roms faster and smoother. But then again, I have seen some great ideas just get abandoned after a while.
Yeah, as the title says. I stopped using this AWESOME phone because I now have an LG optimus G. However, I wanna use this phone as a portable gaming device (might get gameklip/ps3 controller) because I know there's a lot of awesome emulators out there. Does anyone have any suggestions that could help me take advantage of this phone's power in terms of performance for gaming? Batterywise, I don't mind if it can only last like 5 hours of straight gaming or even less.
1. What model of the Evo 3D do you have (CDMA/GSM, Evo 3D, Evo V, Evo 4G+) - EVO 3D GSM
2. What ROM are you currently running? King Cobra ICS
3. Is your Evo 3D rooted and/or S-OFF? S-OFF
4. What is important to you in a ROM (features, customization, performance, battery life, etc.)? Gaming Performance, Music Quality and maybe some decent battery life.
5. Do you plan to run a custom kernel to OC/UV or for additional features like USB host? ??? don't get this question
6. If you have a preference between Sense and AOSP ROM's please include that. - Don't mind, but I like the Senseless look
7. Indicate if you are looking specifically for a GingerBread, Ice Cream Sandwich or Jelly Bean based ROM. - Would like ICS, or Jelly Bean but I prefer performance over this.
8. Must have features that don't work on all ROM's like Wi-Fi tethering, WiMax 4G, and 3D camera. - Wifi Tether
+ kernel suggestions and any add-ons that will improve my phone's performance is greatly appreciated.
PS. I don't mind if I can't play games in SUPER HIGH QUALITY as long there's no lag.

1. EVO 3D GSM
2. Stock ICS, rooted, deodexed and zip-aligned
3. S-OFF
4. First and foremost battery, performance, music performance and gaming performance
5. Yes. Latest Anryl kernel, overclocked to 1,5GHz and undervolted
6. I personally prefer AOSP (CyanogenMod), but since the battery life and gaming performance is not that great at this moment, I stick to stock ICS. Apart from that, CM beats Sense on all fronts.
7. Some may argue Gingerbread is best for gaming, but I highly doubt that. IMO stock ICS is the best gaming ROM at the moment, until the devs improve the 3D performance in their CM10 ROMs.
8. Must-have features: everything besides 3D and Wi-Fi tethering. Those are not important to me.

and this combination actually provides the best gaming experience?
Viper is pretty fast, at least on cdma phones it is.
Honestly not every one phone is the same, you are better off trying a multitude of configurations. Grab 5 different roms and 3 different kernels and try them all! A good game to test with is GTA III.

hey guys,
just thought about something today.. searched abit and couldn't find an answer
what are the difference between de-sense rom and cyanogen rom?
i am looking for a faster snappier UI then what the sense offers..
my thoughts currently are between ARHD with desense or an AOKP\cyanogen variants..
thanks
De-sense still runs sense apps and uses more ram.
An aosp based rom, being cyanogenmod, will run with alot less ram with all the aosp features and tweaks without a trace of sense.
Battery life noticeably changes. Sense is hard on the battery.
Does that also mean that playing Games like Chaos rings 2 or dungeon Hunter 4 on cyanogonmod will improve the temperature too?

Most likely not. The game uses the processor the exact same as it will on any ROM. This means the processor and battery will heat up the same, but the speed and smoothness of the game may increase.
A De-sensed rom is a Stock HTC sense rom. With rosie and many of the sense background processes removed. The aim is to produce a stock rom with all the features for people who use diffrent launchers, and saving some ram, battery and power in the process.
Aosp (Android open source project) is basically vanilla android. It is built from source and has nothing to do with HTC. Asop roms are usually much faster than stock and much smaller. But you can't use many HTC apps as they require the HTC framework.
Cyanogenmod starts life as Asop but quickly becomes a much diffrent beast. It contains many mods and ways to customise your experience, it is just as fast as asop if not faster.
