What's up y'all? I recently lost my Nexus S 4G and am now using my brothers old EVO 3D. I am sorely missing stock Android. I was running an AOSP JellyBean ROM on my NS4G, which was oh so nice....but is there anything for the EVO 3D....either ICS or JellyBean? I've looked around, but haven't seen anything. So can anyone point me in the right direction?
You didn't look very hard.
This belongs in q&a.

I guess I should have been more specific....something with little to no issues would be great. Each seem to have their own issues....in the AOKP rom camera isn't working, CM10 has several issues (sound being the main one), and in regards to CM9, I thought I read through a thread that intimated that 4G does not work. Is that something that source built roms will suffer from on the EVO 3D?
Lots of ICS roms with zero issues.
Look in the developement threads.

The Nexus is a Google phone with native AOSP. If you want everything to work on an Evo 3D (or most HTC phones) you will probably need to use a ROM that is Sense based.
You might want to look at SOS M which is built on a MeanROM ICS base that is very complete and stable, but largely de-Sensed and has a lot of options to give it the look and feel of AOSP, or even MIUI.
And as someone else already pointed out, in the future "what should I do?" or "how should I do it?" questions belong in the Q&A forum rather than General.

Thanks for pointing me towards the development section, that is helpful. You mind throwing a couple examples at me though? Everything I look at seems to be sense based.
SOS M (cdma) is probably the top sense based rom for the hero. and i'm pretty sure they were first at doing so. it's 100% stable ( you have to use the sense lockscreen tho if you want to see who is calling when your phone is locked) i very much enjoy it
aosp roms usually only have 3g and 2d camera working but you can give sos m a shot, you'll love it trust me
Thanks guys...maybe I'll take SOS M for a spin and see if that does the job for me.
Try 3d Anorexia and PAE .9.5. Those come pretty close to being bugless. Especially 3d Anorexia. Its got working 4g. No 3d of course.

The camera worked fine for me in AOKP.
Regardless, try 3D Anorexia if you want an AOSP rom with no stability issues.

Whoever is responsible for that ROM should really consider giving it another name. If you've ever known anyone with anorexia, there's nothing funny about it.
Sorry, but I'm not going to install a ROM that shows disrespect for a very serious illness.

I'm sure they weren't, but probably at least thought it was a cute name for a lean ROM, which it's not. Many times people (including me) do things that unintentionally offend others and I'm not faulting them for that, just suggesting they change the name to something more appropriate.

That one is my new favorite, camera doesn't work yet along with 4G and 3D. Don't really care about the later two but I do miss my camera. Its an awesome enough ROM IMO to deal without the camera for now. Jelly Bean on our Evo 3Ds is almost like a new phone!
Try King Cobra v1.6. First install Sense and set everything up, then install again using Aroma Installer and select Senseless, and AOSP Components, then select AOSP notification and settings (and DON'T WIPE) and you're good to go with a Bugless (afaik) AOSP ROM.

I'm runing the SOS M ROM right now, but have been keeping a very close eye on that CM10 ROM. The 3D I don't care about, but I need the 4G & camera....work is being done on the 4G, so hoping that is figured out soon and they follow up with quick work on the camera too. I was gonna flash it to check it out earlier today, but I'd have to downgrade my hboot apparently, and since I've not done that before, I figured it wasn't worth the trouble when I knew I couldn't stick with CM10 as it is anyway.

I have been running one of the Evervolv pre-Alphas for about a week now - All 3 of the ICS builds in the CDMA dev section are usable, you just have to figure out which features you can and can't live without. I love preludedrew's Alpha4, the HW accel makes it so snappy. Honestly I don't miss CM too much (but I will definitely try them out whenever there is a release). Try out one of the other releases - having ICS is sooooo worth it!
I like Joelz port.

I just wish the CM team would pop their heads out every once in a while to let us know that the evo3d is still under development. I'm sure it is, just worries me sometimes. Nobody has really released a stable AOSP rom (or even beta really) yet and the phone has been out for 6+ months.

I agree although this phone is tough for a few different reasons.
1. There are two completely seperate versions GSM vs. CDMA and thats fragmenting the devs.
2. 3D is tough and a first for many
3. GSM kernerl source was f'ed for a long time so that threw development time in the trash
4. The upcoming ICS release has somewhat slowed development because some are just waiting to see what happens with an update. I wouldnt want weeks or months of my hardwork go to waste overnight because of an update to a whole new build by HTC.
With that said i think once ICS does drop it could provide many answers about some of the "under the hood" workings of this device, and development will pick up. As someone said this phone is a real beast under the cover.
None of this is to say that the devs currently working arent doing a great job. some of the stuff i have seen is great and there is a lot being done to get AOSP roms going on this phone. I have seen Development pick up greatly over the last few months. So i look forward to whats in store.

Never getting cm7 because of ICS is just speculation on your part. Regardless, we never got it.
We aren't even officially supported by CM, nobody knows what exactly is going to happen. That's why people should get comfortable with other roms...I can only imagine what this place is gonna look like once cm9 nightlies drop and our phone isn't on the list.
I have no doubt that CM will eventually make it's way to the evo 3d (I do have doubts about the 3d part ever working tho) it's just gonna take a little time. It will be worth it once everything gets rolling.

we cant say for sure that the reason cm7 support was dropped was because of ics but it is a pretty good assumption thats the case. im sure once cm9 nightlies drop all our fears will be lifted lol. at least thats what i think but with how quiet the cyanogen team is cant help but begin to doubt them haha at least we have some great alphas to play with for now!

The virtuous ROM, while great, doesn't support key features for most people (camera, USB connection, wi-fi tethering etc), but is pretty stable if you don't need that. As for working together that would be nice, cdma users have some very nice roms that will never see the light of day on gsm (this include meanrom and Android Revolution HD).

At least you can see other answers. Basically, go find an Evo user who upgraded to the LTE and ask them what ROM they were using, that will be their answer to your question.

One ROM i ran a lot on my past two phones were the roms by kushdeck. I like that they were basically cm based without a lot of the bloatish aspects.
As for sense i ran the mikshifted roms on my evo shift.

What are some of the best kernels? (im used to using Mathkids Matr1x) and what about roms?? Thanks if anyone can help. God Bless.
Ughhh, I swear if I see another "best rom" thread I'm gonna slap a baby.
There is no "best rom" that we can give you. Every rom has very different features for different users. Some are made for performance, some for battery life. Nobody can tell you what the best rom for you is. One of the benefits of rooting is you can easily switch roms whenever you want. So try one out for a few days, if you don't like it, try another.

In my humble opinion:
Sense based: ZR3dX (see my signature). Everything works since it is based on what HTC released. Smooth, great battery.
Sense removed: d3rp ICS. Based on sense, but with the sense removed so everything works, but a few minor things (like no shortcuts from lockscreen since no Sense)
AOSP: CM9 Devil Toast. Everything works but 3d, but it is not as smooth as the dev would like yet.
Of course, to each their own. Even my opinion could change tomorrow. That's the beauty of it. Flash one today, try a new one tomorrow. Here is the Evo 3d CDMA development forum for you to choose from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1098
I'd totally agree with coal686 on the AOSP rom. Tried a few "AOSP"s and I'd say its a close call between CM9 and NonSense 3.1. Found a bug using 3rd party camera apps with NonSense, and although there's no 3D with CM9 its a way tighter rom! Definitely recommended.
(these are GSM recommendations, btw)
For cmda I recommend miui v4 or meanrom ics.
Well i am using anryl's own rom and his 30.07 kernel and have my evo 3D overclocked to 1.5GHZ =D i recommend using them if u have any problems feel free to PM me

You would need to define your criteria for "best" first.
For me, "best" ROMs are ROMs that give me better speed, more features, and similar stability to stock. I also keep my devices for a pretty long time. So as they age I look to the community for support in keeping up to date. Hell, I still have a Tegra 2 tablet (Gtab) and my old Hero C laying around.
In this respect, I have had very good luck with ViperROM on the LTE. YMMV

This is always going to be a question that never has the perfect answer. It depends on what you want/need. Go sense if you want the classic evo look and just want the basic experience its for people who don't care as much about making the device faster and better, they just want it to work and the only real reason they rooted it was to get rid of the bloatware. Keep it simple stupid. Honestly sense is fast, but aosp is is much more reliable and stable. Sense kernels have that small chance of corrupting your file system if and when your device crashes. It's a small chance but a chance none the less.
AOSP is by far the best for the ones who do want to unlock the devices full potential. AOSP (Android open source project) roms are more difficult to create and perfect but they give these devices more potential but its also up to the user to do his or her research. Don't flash or tweak even the slightest thing until you do your research and search xda and google. When you find a guide that of course isn't too old and you know you can trust it, read it over and over and bookmark it. Always search xda but never listen to the opinions of others until you test it yourself.
These rom creators work hard and they expect us to know what we are doing.
tl;dr - I will just say this, if your willing to spend more time to give you the best experience go AOSP. And if you go AOSP go CyanogenMod and nothing else. And for the kernel if you do wish to use a custom kernel I hightly recommend Komodo if you want an even better user experience.
Best rom is...
... the one that works best for you
FWIW. I love the ViperRom. Phone feels like it just "works" and, if I want, there are lots of customizations available.
That said, I just switched to HatkaLTE because I wanted to stay with a sense rom and it seems to me that the last update of ViperRom reintroduced the original rom's sensor problems on my phone. [I say seems because it's still not perfect, just better, on the HatkaLTE and maybe the hardware has developed a defect]. I can't say much about this rom yet because I haven't had it on my phone long enough and because I'm also playing around with different launchers at the same time.
Good luck!

IDK, but I'm really excited to install the new VIPERROM
Very, very excited. Hopefully it (re)fixes the proximity sensor problem, but if not, I have the init file all ready to solve the problem myself!
I have to agree with many of the posts, it's more of a personal taste question. I've run almost every ROM at some point, and I love the speed of AOSP, but like the features of Sense. There are a few key features that you lose on AOSP. After a whole lot of flashing, I've settled on SuperJelly Bareback, it strips out all the bloat of Sense while retaining those key features, and is almost spot on with the speed of AOSP. It's my happy medium. Good luck and happy flashing.
If you dont need Bluetooth, Sense 5. Otherwise Viper or Super LTE.
