So I'm finally getting around to playing with my 4G LTE and just curious what everybody thinks is the best ROM. Of course everybody is entitled to their opinion. Pros and cons please?
I'm stock as a bird with wings, if that makes sense! Lol.. But If I would have the privilege in knowing how to ROOT my device and putting a ROM I would go for Jelly-Bean! Just because its a everyday runner. My 2 cent!

Common misconception, you don't need to root your ROM to flash roms. You just need to unlock and flash twrp. You install superuser only to root stock rom. The only reason you would need to root a rom is if you have 1.12 since lazy panda requires root to achieve soff

Stock variants keep everything in tact. Aosp is lean and steady but you lose all the proprietary features like image sense (definitely not a gimmick) and their media link. It comes down to what works for you and what tweaks and extras suit you more.
mean rom!!!!! hands down!!! speed.. battery life is beast!! mean rom gets more support than any other rom out...:good:

MeanROM by far is the best
There's really no best, it just depends on what you want, my suggestion is to flash a few until you decide what you want...viper, superlte, meanrom tranquility and flex are my favorites, but experiment a little, give feedback, and then and only then will you begin to enjoy the art of flashing....happy flashing my friend...just don't do the trench coat thing...that's ummmm....no bueno LOL

Anthonicia I bet you feel like Eric Wareheim in your profile pic if you are new to flashing, haha. Just read a lot, ask questions, and you'll learn as you go.
I would strongly recommend ViperROM, it's fast, stable, great battery life, and, most importantly, it lets you customize TONS of things about your phone of which other ROMs only begin to scratch the surface.
If you like options, and who doesn't, go with ViperROM.
Enjoy your stay, and flash away!

If we do get s-off today and with this new kernel source we can have some pretty smooth AOSP Roms here soon given that HTC Sense is a OS in itself any AOSP Rom should run like a Geo metro with an LS6 in it
Sorry for the noob question and I welcome any flaming for me not knowing this, but, what exactly does the kernel source give us?

thinkin about whipping up a rom myself. nothing too fancy, just something simple with a few minor adjustments. i'm not going to get too involved in it this early on as i'm sure there will be an assload of OTA's.... and since people have to re-lock to flash radios now.... bleh

I am pretty sure we can flash radios through custom recovery. Htcdev unlocks the entire phone. The only downfall is the watermarked bootloader.

Do you mean will it always have a watermark, as of now yes. When you relock the bootloader it shows relocked at the top. The awesome devs here might be able to fix that in the future. This will void parts of your HTC warranty but who uses ever uses that.

It's the exact same as stock but deodexed and rooted. Nothing else. No tweaks. No optimizations.
It also allows users who want to modify it the way they want since it is completely stock. Devs can build off of it.

No problem. Just sharing the stuff I learned
Can this be flashed using 4EXT or must it be renamed and flashed like any other stock ROM? (relocking bootloader, renaming file, etc)
Curious because I wanted to update to the "R2" version released by football..but might as well use this if it's already rooted and such, save a little time.
By the way, anyone know what the difference is between the latest ICS OTA and the "R2" version posted by football? (it wasn't posted in the Amaze forums, but it was posted on his filefactory account)
Kind if irritated that I even updated to ICS at all right now (used the OTA) because it seems to have totally borked WiFi calling (there's some kind of crazy delay that appears ~10 minutes into a phone call... other users getting the same thing). Really didn't want to S-OFF and revert to GB, though, so hoping this "R2" release fixed that
OK I have been flashing, rooting, jailbreaking, housebreaking, just braking for ever....
So far I have to say that TWRP 2.10 is like the coolest Recovery ever.
A big hand to those who made it possible.
I know this rant may sound crazy but its sooo true.
This is a bit nicer (TO ME) than CWM. No offense to Koush ofcourse.
But wow the team has really come through with this recovery.
Thats my 2cents.
Anyways thanks for listening Toodles
