hi guys i am new here so please be kind =D
ok, so i have a t-mobile g2 which i got in february and have been waiting ever since for 2.1. i am tired of waiting and am also thinking that 2.1 is probably a waste and would rather root.
so heres what i am looking for in a custom rom: longer battery life, overclocking, something that dosent lag alot (sense dosent but it has its annoying moments, especially on the lock screen), ease of use. you get the idea.
now i have not done alot of research into the custom rom area so any suggestions would be great.
and a second question: what is the best and safest way to go about rooting?
cheers guys

Cronos Droid 1.7.1 is the best for what you're saying It's THE fastest ROM out there
Here's a guide to root I haven't used it but im pretty sure it's how i did when i rooted (a looong time ago) so it should work

Here is a guide for rooting and installing custom ROMs.
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=375&start=0
You will need gold card method iirc
VillainROM 10.3 with JIT and ninpo's bfs kernel is really fast. And you mention lock screens. Vr has stock android one too with selectable wallpaper and working alarm
cool, thanks will take a look at these cheers.
any other suggestion on roms, ive heard alot about modaco... but i what have youhad experience with?

In my experiences with it it's the fastest official 2.1 ROM along with VillainROM (Cronos Droid is also based on it but MoDaCo is more "raw" (more official) if you can say that) but Cronos Droid is even faster because of Feeyos modified libraries MoDaCo is a bit more laggy at times but MCR 4 isn't released yet (it's only a RC i think?) so thats what you would expect... I think when MCR 4 is released it's probably as fast as Cronos Droid but for now I think Cronos Droid would be the best for you unless you are totally in to that shiny Legend/Desire kind of look (which Cronos Droid doesen't have) then i would recommend MoDaCo or VillainROM
ahhh cool, im not tooo bothered about the look as long as it runs well and gives me a bit better battery life. just a thought out of 10 what are the chances of bricking my phone?

Umm. I used modaco ages ago (about 7 months or so), but I don't really know what it's like these days.
I am actually one of the devs of VillainROM, so not really in any place to give a totally unbiased answer.
Basically, it depends on what you are after. If you are looking for the fastest ROM possible, then something like the new SuperHero, which we will be releasing in the next day or so, might be up your street. It's a cross between stock 'eclair android' and some little bits of HTC sense. So it has the speed of vanilla, with the little niceities of Sense.
If you're after a totally Vanilla ROM, there are some of them around too, often based on CyanogenMod. Look for the terms AOSP and Vanilla if you want one of these. Be aware they might lack some of the features you are used to currently, since HTC does add a fair bit of stuff on top of Android.
For the pure HTC Sense ROM, there are a good number of them out too, although I have to confess I have completely lost track of which ones are out there. There's one from 42turkeys I think, and modaco and cronos etc. although I can't really recommend any of them as I haven't used them.
If you are after the 'perfected theme', there's a VillainROM theme from petsasj over on www.villainrom.co.uk that finishes off some of the aesthetics of the ROM, as there are some little imperfections in HTC's release. If you pop over to the IRC channel (link on the homepage), someone will be able to answer any detailed questions you have with ROM etc.

Right. Bricking... Well, so long as you don't do anything stupid with your phone, like pulling battery, you should be fine. If you want someone to guide you through the process or answer any questions you have, pop onto the IRC i mentioned.
So long as you are careful, and follow the instructions to the letter, you should be absolutely fine
VillainROM has a few little extra kernels etc. and a couple of fixes on the Over-the-air updater app that might help you get some better performance and battery life too
Just ask if you need help
wow alot to think about, hmmm well, i like fast, but asthetics arnt a big matter to be honest, i just want it to run well. just another quick query, if i have to send it off for warrenty or anything i can revert back to stock yes?

Course Pop in the goldcard and then use the RUU (stock HTC ROM exe file) to restore back to the the factory condition
Fast is good for me too VR10.3 with ninpo's BFS kernel and 729MHz Overclock is good enough for me
im sure im gonna go with a villain rom as it has one of the clearest guides i have seen, plus i have the sdk and that stuff for the gold card thing. when is superhero out then seen as that is the fastest? gonna read it through a couple more times aswell so that i can really get to grips with what to do =]

The link isn't working for me either but I don't know anyone who has used the 'one click' methods.
I highly recomend BTDAG's guide linked in my sig (its the same guide as on Villain site) , you will get support if there is something you don't understand or if something unexpected happens. Read the whole thing through 1st, then start from the top.
arrgghh, just annoyed, cus it was working earlier. oh well. and yeah, will just have to follow the other one. i just liked the idea of a one click method. cheers =]
Quick mention, I believe I had the same phone as you T-Mobile_G2_Touch? The guide in my sig was created using the G2, if it helps
p.s. I advise using an XP machine, drivers for Windows 7 are a *****.

Does this have working portable hotspot and tethering? and does the phone read the sd card correctly for music and gallery?

Ignorance is bliss .
ICS Android 4 has not been released by Samsung .
XDA have a leaked ICS v KP8 Beat test rom not everything works that's why its not released .
You can install or one of the custom roms built around this . But its not for noobs and will of course void your warranty .
jje
I installed it 1 time and i was not happy whit it so i got back to official stuff xD
I found the latest CM9 build from Codeworkx to be stable enough as a daily use ROM. But I prefer TouchWiz to vanilla, so I switched back. It was very smooth though.
Bwahahaaaahahahahahaha Gold.

Why would you want to go with 4.0 when 5.0 leaked already?! Find it in all its glory here.

You are all gits. Give him a break, it's a reasonable question due to all the different versions flying round.
Try this thread.
Rather than being smartasses, why not give the guy an actual answer? If you think that said 'noobs' will be re educated by repeatedly posting that video, you're delusional. Either that or you genuinely think the same joke is funny after the 3rd time in a row, in which case, you're still delusional.
With this kind of attitude rife, nobody will learn to use the forum correctly or get the answers they want, creating yet more noobs.
To answer OPs question - no, there is no official ICS builds
from samsung yet. You're welcome to try a leaked build or Cyanogenmod 9, which I personally find stable enough for daily use. If you want real stability with every feature functional, however, you're going to have to wait to the official version from Samsung.
Next time, to avoid this immature nonsense, do a quick search and browse the development forum.

Some good points, however a bit of mickey taking should be expected
I am running the CM9 ICS ROM and it is very good even at this early stage. Bits like audio out through the Sammy car dock aren't working (as you'd expect) and the video issues are annoying but not show stoppers IMO so I'm using this as my daily driver for now and will see what the battery life is like.
The only real way is to do a backup and try it out for yourself.

I'll tell you why.
More and more people are coming to these forums, and disregard everything that's posted. They jump in, create a thread, ask the same questions, and expect us to do the work for them.
If this specific user took the 15 minutes to read, he would quickly understand that there are two versions of ICS for the GS2 - leaked builds from Samsung, and CM9. He would also quickly understand that none of these are "full working ROMs".
However, seeing as he couldn't bother himself for 15 minutes to at least try and figure things out on his own, I definitely can't be bothered to write a valid response and to encourage that kind of behavior.
The video basically says "search before you post". He should search before he posts. It isn't funny, it isn't a joke, its actually pretty sad the video had to be created in the first place. But it was created, and it does exist, and so I'll use it whenever its appropriate.
XDA is not anybody's personal tech support - this is not a 1-800 number to dial if you're having problems or questions regarding your device. It is, though, an enormous hub of information that is readily available to anyone who's willing to put in the tiny bit of effort required to properly use it.
Soulicro well said put it in a nutshell .
Let Rolling star answer this same question 400 times in a month dont mind ten times a day .

Can anybody tell me which are the top most downloaded for each year 2011 and 2012 roms right know, that are fully working
would u mind if u tell me which are senseless and which one have sense ( the ones that have HTC sense on them) plz
thanks in advance : )
What do you mean by "top rom"? The most downloaded? The latest software? The fastest?
Either way, like I tell everyone who asks this, there is no "best rom" for everyone. Everyone has different needs/wants in a rom. The beauty of rooting is you can try out a rom for a few days, and if you don't like it, flash another. Just try out a few and see what you like.

Mean ROM and Clean ROM are the two best daily drivers you can find!!!!
They are fast, stable and good on the battery.

I don't think he was saying that viperROM doesn't have good support, but rather that MeanROM does have great support.
I have been using Fresh. I don't know if it is the best or even good. It works well for me and I need my phone for grown-up (work) things, so I don't have time to try them all out. I wish someone would tell me which one is great and uses sense and has the most going for it.
Lol stock builds you tend to squeeze some nice battery life from. But again it boils down to what the op prefers.
Nothin is top lol. Most devs offer support if you get stuck . I offer help on my own builds or to whoever needs help . I bounce around here.
Most builds have dates that tell you how new it is. If you go to a overclocked rom your battery life won't be the best. Just depends on what you want.

You're asking us to go research every ROM for 2011 and 2012 and rank them in order for the 3d? Sorry brah. You could probably take a good guess by clicking on the development section, and see which ones are constantly posted to (popularity), which translates to downloads.
I'm running mean ROM n boy I love it!!!!! Tried many ROMS out there but none fit me., this one did the job! It's fast! Stable! And good battery life ....sometimes lol

I think everybody is looking for a little wondering different in a ROM, so the answer to your question is 100% subjective.
After I rooted my 3vo, I flashed a new ROM nearly every 1-2 weeks, looking for that "perfect" ROM.
I have found two that I like enough to hold onto:
CleanRom
Viper
Just for the record, there are many ROMs I have not tried, so that's not to say there aren't others just as good.

There isn't a good way to find that answer since every rom is downloaded a insane amount and no one keeps track of downloads.... Devs are too busy whippin new things up
I agree with everyone and no one. MIUI is pretty popular I personally know about 15 people who are running that. Viper is another good one. Until we get something like Google Play for ROM's no one will ever know the answer. I have seen several blogs and what not that are titled something like "MOST POPULAR ROM's" but after reading them it would seem that they are ALL based on opinion and nothing more. I use more broken ROM's then ones where everything works so if there where a pole that met your criteria I wouldn't even be able to vote!
Which that the admins would start tracking the download and views it would make it so much easier to search
Remember when I had my hacked PSP I used to search themes and other stuff and there where all organize by popularity. Download times. Ect

That isn't necessarily possible because ROMs are uploaded to different sites, servers, etc. Some show download counts like dev-host
I have tried asking on Miui.us for a ROM for our TFP. I was wondering if some of you can show your support and help ask for a ROM for us. I have PM'ed a few Mod's and admin's of the site and have received no response. Here is the LINK to the site. Please show your support so we can get this wonderful ROM made for our TFP. I have ran it on my Evo 4G and EVO 3D and it's very smooth with a lot of customization. There are thousands of theme's made for Miui and if you haven't ever seen it, I would highly suggest you check it out. Thanks in advance!

So sick of hearing this bull.
Let the owners pick what Rom they want to run. Is there a problem with Icons being sized the same, christ people spend hours on the market picking out themes and custom icons to get their screens to look a certain way. Whether it be an Ipad kinda layout or not.
While Miui has an Apple look to it (Apple does have some beautiful design) it by NO means runs like iOS.
Man, Ill take a clean looking stable Rom any day. Miui fits this bill. You cant deny the amount of downloads Miui has, they have done something right.
OP....there was a thread started yesterday from a guy who had started on a port. He had some questions for devs to help him out. I tried to steer him to some other forums here for help. He had some screenshots of miui on his prime.....jellybean(something).....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1537786
Enough of the elitist attitudes, we want options!! Let the people decide!
Miui might look like an iOS, but it IS definitely no where near it. It is like CM# but IMO way better. You are able to customize almost every aspect of the ROM. You need to look into something before you throw out a stupid comment like"buy an iPad". If I wanted something can't truly customize, over-clock, add anything to it and wanted something blan, I would have bought an iPad. On my old EVO 4G, the ROM was so smooth and had the highest bench scores on the EVO when I had it. On the EVO 3D, it runs just as smooth and very fast. I think that Miui would be a great ROM for us TFP, and if we had our own ROM and not a port, it could be the smoothest and fastest ROM out there. Miui is also supports almost 40 known phones and tablets, and is known world wide and has a big following.
I will continue to try and ask some of the developers for help over on Miui.us.

While miui would be a great option it will no way be the fastest rom. I have ran it myself on a few phones and it is very nice and smooth, but every phone also had other ROMs that were faster. It is very heavy on customization which is nice, don't get me wrong, but it is fact that it doesn't perform as well as many other ROMs on same device.
That being said would love to see it on the prime. Its a great ROM and I love to have more options and things to play with!
I talked to few more people over on Miui.us and found out that super_ is also working on a port for our TFP. He claims that he has been waiting for better dock support before he started ported, but he gave up on waiting and will try to also try and port it over soon.
Also, @rand4ll, IMO it was faster than any of the other ROM's that ran on the EVO 4G, and most on the 3D as well. I have switched back to a Sense rom though, a few features I like more than Miui when it comes to having it be used as a phone. Since the TFP isn't a phone, I won't miss those features and will like to use all the customization that Miui brings.
@Mcoupe, I thought I thanked you as well for providing the link and your info that you provided. I made sure it took this time!
Well we have progrss over at the Miui.us site. They have made a TFP section and are working on a rom. Whenever I find out more I will keep everyone updated on this.

For a short while there was a download on goo.im/miui, I'm guessing it was some sorta beta/nighty/test rom but anyway... I never got it to boot up completely (boot loop), And It appears they used cm9 as a base(the boot animation was from the old cm9 nightly) any way here is a DL link for it, see if any of you can make any progress or see what wrong with it..

I didn't open a new thread, I started this thread back in March and I was updating my thread that I started. .
It looks like you were the one who opened a new thread on the whole Miui ROM issue. Your post could have been added to my thread to let everyone know about an update to it. But hey, you didn't see me going to your thread and telling you about my thread that was posted before yours and you shouldn't have made a new thread. It's all cool though

Miui is built a fully built and customized version of CM I believe (I could be wrong though). They took the CM base build and basically built it from scratch off of the CM base. For a long time Miui was a closed source ROM, but I believe they finally released the source code so that any Dev can make a rom for their phone.

My question is pretty much specified in the title. I LOVE CM. I have it installed in my N7 and GNex but I've read that CM9 and 10 are in ALPHA stages. Help? Please?
Possible answer

This question sounds or could be in the Nook Tablet Q & A forum. The closest thing to stable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877217 beside certain games title don't work as noted in "Known Issues:" may want to try this even though it listed as UNOFFICIAL. 12/10 is pretty close to a complete solution if you don't mind flashing updated roms and gapps.

I know that when I asked this question once I got this reply which actually was good advice. If you ask 10 people which ROM is best you will get ten different answers. You just need to do your research and pick the one that will give you what you need with the least amount of issues. What is good for someone else is not always good for you. I still use cm7. Doesn't mean that it is the best available, but it provides what I need. It is hard to decide what to use, just try them all until you find what is good for you.

Thanks, I usually try and do my research before asking a question, I've been flashing since the OG Droid but there's nothing solid for the NT as mentioned above by Vector. I'm aware of the few ROMs out with some issues. Getting 10 different answers will always give me an idea of where 10 different ROMs stand which will give me a better insight on them so I don't mind the different opinions and suggestions. The NT is my 8 year old daughter's and I want something stable enough so she won't get frustrated with it but I guess I'll flash something and hope for the best. Once again, thanks for the input.
The most stable ROM by far is celticwebsolutions cm 8&16 GB beta. I have flashed about every ROM available for nook tab. I have run this ROM for months now and even lasted ten days off the charger without a reboot or dead battery( ultra light use of course). Cm 9 and 10 are fun to play with' but are plagued with reboots due to 3.0 kernel issues' etc. Especially for an 8 year old' you don't want freezes and reboots requiring a hard reboot. I really love the cm10 ROMs, but even 1 or 2 freezes is too many for me for a heavy user such as myself. I keep trying them and always revert t cm 7 beta. You are not missing out on any apps sticking with cm7 over the newer builds. A slicker ui and advanced ecosystem are nice though. So nice, in fact I have moved onto a nexus 7 and now my 2.5 y/o son mainly uses my nook now to play angry birds and some others. He navigates around with ease' I would feel uncomfortable setting him up on cm10 as he would often have to come to me for a reset. For us adults' an slightly unstable ROM with extra bells and whistles is just fine. Half the fun for me is troubleshooting and trying new ones. I would go with the mentioned cm 7 and call it a day.

Firstly you need to remember to post any threads in the correct sections and a thread that starts with [Q] has no other place then Q&A.
The reason I've closed this thread is because best ROM threads aren't encouraged on the forum due to exactly what's been said already, you ask 10 people you get 10 different answers, it's too subjective and goes nowhere. The only way you'll know is by reading the development threads and also trying ROM's out for yourself. All best ROM threads get closed for these reasons and why you don't see active best ROM threads here.
Thanks
