[Q] Android versions & Roms? - Motorola Photon 4G

Can anyone sort photon 4g custom roms into android versions, please ? I spent half an hour on this. The only thing I found is....Alien Rom goes to the Gingerbread.

I do believe every ROM we have is Gingerbread with the exception of ICS and MIUI ICS (which is a work in progress). If you have any more specific questions, ask and I'll (and others) will do our best to answer.

Thanx!!
Foursquare app keeps force closing and I thought it was the android version causing the problem..
I should try other roms then besides rocko's.

Could be the ROM, could be the app. Have you posted the issue in the Rocko ROM thread?

Which ROM you recommend!

Hi guy/girls,
ive looked through as many threads as i could and downloaded a few roms and im rather stuck which to go for and hoping you peeps could help me decide?
basically what i want is:
Adobe flash support
camera + video cam
make phone calls and 3g networking
not to bothered about mediascape
So far i have downloaded MIUI_xperia_TripNRaVeR-CFMod.v7 and [rendeiro2005]Cyanogen6.1.3_v01.
the [rendeiro2005]Cyanogen6.1.3_v01 seems to be my fave im just not a great fan of the theme but i could always install one i like i asume? im a relative noob but still know my way around xrec and rooting. if im missing a rom that fits my needs does any one have any further recommendations?
Many thanks people

Im using CM 6.1.3 V4.1,I really like it.I was using Free X10,but this one seems a little bit smoother. I also switch back to SE 2.1 to use the video cam in HD. Video illusion+Vingette works just fine as alternatives. Theres probably atleast 1,000posts about those apps on here.
Bluespark rom I'm using it right now and its bloody amazing its very quick no laggs!

he said he wants one with camera and camcorder, and the froyo roms dont give hd recording. i would go with the high performance 2.1 rom, it's very fast and awesome!
this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913610 is the rom if you want something fast, and has the camera, and so forth.
I just downloaded the blue sparks rom im going to give this a try now, it seems promising and i quite like the look of it theme wise, thanks for the replies guy
The best rom so far is EW JET

I will give you my personal testimonial.
I am using this rom h t t p:/ / forum .xda-developers. com / showthread.php?t=941745 for last 10 days.. and I can asure you that so far it's the best 2.1 rom that I had tried till now. It's completely functional and too smooth.. beyond the amazing theme and still there is two flavors available Gingerbread Theme and Gingerbread plus Arc Theme Personally I prefer the second one. By the way I tried almost all roms available in this forum and for sure the best one is EW JET by erickwill.
i've just installed rendeiro's cyanogen+fx10b4 and while i'm loving the ROM, i'm also going to tweak the theme to my liking.
I'm also searching for that perfect one.. now using TripNArc, but it's not done yet
Gonna look at dev section now.
Well im using the blue sparks Rom with arc home screen and enjoying it just wondering if there is a 2.2 froyo Rom around that sd card actually mounts I am unable to find one as of yet

[ROM] X10x EW Jet (NEW V015.7x and NEW V006x.Arc) New Baseband Ready! ... previously using free x10 rom... now running v600x.Arc... seems to be cool..
I like this one...
Im running Bionix 1.3.1 with overstock kernel. Just flashed today though, but love it so far!

Cognition Rom - Suggestion (roms)

Hi Guys,
At present i am using unNamed rom v1.2.0 due to some problems with my sms message (weird sound) i like to change it to Cognition rom how good is this rom or else which rom is very stable without problem could you guys suggest me. Thanks in advance.
The best way to find out is try them all. How the phone runs is based on your setup. What runs good for me and my setup might not be so peachy for you. I've tried most and prefer UnNamed or MIUI, but that's just me.

Cognition 777 replaced Perception.
Cognition is pretty stable, if that's what you're asking. Just read the comments under each ROM, preferably the recent ones, and see what people are saying about it. Even if a ROM has some instability, developers are quick enough to fix the problem, but yeah, it's a matter of preference.
I think Cognition is one of the best ROMs there is and 100% the best for battery life. All the ROMs really have the same features the only difference is a theme (if the ROM is themed) and an option or two added. This ROM is based off the I9100 (international GS2) and for some reason its has better battery life.

[Q] FM Radio on AOSP ROMs

Just out of curiosity: It seems that no matter how much updates it gets, the devs couldnt manage to get FM Radio to work on AOSP & AOSP based ROMs. Why? Anyone got ideas about that?
PS: I've already did my search and couldnt find anything. But ofcourse internet is a vast ocean so maybe i've missed something

well, if you want FFC as well, you'll need a touchwiz based rom, So, if you want HC, I recommend Galaxy Task 14. If you want ICS, you need either official ICS or task650s ICS "The Beginning". Any CM or AOSP based ROM won't have a working front facing camera.
I using Toldo's JellyBeanRom ICS v5. I think it's the best rom I have ever used on my tab. Everything works quite well.
If you do install it and run into problems, read through the rom's forum as there area couple of fixes to implement in order to prevent freezing screen and extending the battery. After the simple fixes I am happy to stick with this rom permanently.

i9300 not at all smooth? :/

Good morning.
Ive been using my i9300 for about two months now. Im a former iPhone 4 user. I have noticed that the i9300 despite the fact that it has quad-core and 1GB RAM, is not at all smooth :/ I always get lag in the Homescreen and in the settings etc etc. I've tried like 20 ROMS or so :/ am i doing something wrong here? E.g. scrolling between homepages can get laggy! That wasnt supposed to happen right?\
Im currently at MIUI 2.9.14 ROM. Maybe im doing something wrong when i flash a new ROM?
What are the steps?
I delete the whole internalSD, i perform a data/factory reset via CWM, i delete cache and Dalvik Cache. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

The rom you are on has problem of memory leak.
Just use a samsung-based rom. Your trouble will be fixed.

Yeah try that combo. Wanam or Omega Jelly Bean XXDLI8 leaks are very smooth.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
there are plenty of custom roms out there,
most of the JB leaks are much smoother than the ICS roms i have been using.( i am sure there are ICs roms that are smooth as well , just that i have not tested before. )
currently on Omega v23 and happy with it, no lags. you may just have to spend some time experimenting which one is to your preference.
Sir, I suggest you try out Omega ROM (ICS or JB) doesn't really matter, cause Omega is really really stable. I'm not prompting whatsoever because I'm on MIUI 2.9.14 too with hardcore speed mod kernel and it is perfectly great.
One advice, try not flashing so many ROMs at one go because it might cause system error such as connectivity to wifi or packet data. Stick to one you really like.
Edit: Do a full wipe, flash back stock firmware on PC Odin and root again to remove any bad 'history' and the lag too.
Hope I did manage to help!
Great day

If you want a rapid ICS rom then use Foxhound 1.4.3, it is quite simply the best ICS rom there is, and believe me i've tried them all.
Couple it with Galaxsih kernel @normal and apex launcher not much comes close to it.
As for Jelly bean, take your pick but just know that there are no final builds as of yet and all of them are leaks, meaning that kernel support is limited.
Thanks everyone ive never flashed back to stock before i used custom rom and i think that May be it like one of you suggested. About that miui rom and hardcore speed mod. It works on any MIUI rom or only on specific ones? If it does work on every miui where can i find it? I really like miui
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
You are welcome mate hmm what do you mean?? I'm using hardcore speed mod on my MIUI rom and I don't experience any lag (Provided you use apex launcher PRO too) I even have great battery life (8 hrs of hardcore using; with wifi or packet data On). You can definitely flash speedmod on your MIUI 2.9.14 and you will know what I mean.
Omega ICS on the other hand, is really stable and having that 'stock-ish' feel. But on MIUI, you know we rule the game.
Edit: If you wanna try out Omega, do a full wipe, flash back stock firmware (It will unroot device) then root again then try out Omega. It is really your decision.
But again, you know who rule the game with MIUI. Haha.
Great day ahead.

To get rid of the memory leak, go to ES Explorer, give it root and write permissions (in its options), then go to system/bin/ and delete kiesexe. You won't be able to use Kies anymore, but it'll kill the leak because it's caused by that process.
you should use the stock TW without scrolling wallpaper mod =p
I just prefer you to flash DLI18 stock JB from sammobile, wipe everything before flash, and I would prefer you to change animation scale and duration scale from 1 to 0.5,

Just a suggestion.... If you really like MIUI, but want a smoother and more stable ROM, why don't you flash the latest CM10 build, and then install MiHome Launcher? MiHome Launcher is the default launcher used in MIUI and it comes with an optional MIUI lockscreen as well. Once both are installed, it's virtually indistinguishable from a full MIUI ROM. Plus, it'll have the speed and smoothness of Jelly Bean with the stability of CyanogenMod (or as stable as a pre-release build can be).
Anyway, it was just a thought. Good luck to ya'!
