Trying to keep it original just faster

Hi I'm new to the mytouch slide so I was wondering if there was a way that I could root it and overclock it I saw something about there being a special made kernel for overclocking it, would I need that, I want to keep the original sense ui but if I have to I'll just go to the froyo/sense rom.....i guess

I tried keeping the original slide rom rooted and overclocked but i dont think the kernal matched well since i had constant issues and needed to reflash the rom over and over. Its best just to go with a 2.2 rom and overclock. They are more stable. The latest cyanogenmod actually has the overclock kernal in it.

So should I just drop sense ui all together and just go with cyanogenmod or go with froyo/sense?

Sense roms are sexy and all, but I've used 2 of them for the slide now, both have some pretty major issues. The froyo one was the most glitchy. Cr_mod is eclair, but you can apply the oc kernel and install setcpu. The rom still has an issue here or there but nothing like the issues with froyo sense roms. I'm using cm6.1 rc2 and I have to say its still the fastest rom that I've used for slide. The cm roms were the fastest on my old g1 as well. PLUS they include the overclock kernel. I definitely recommend cyanogenmod.

Idk man, it depends what you can deal with and what you cant. The rom 3rd Sense seems to be the best froyo sense at the moment since it has a2sd, wifi, and bluetooth working but from what i read, it has rotation problems and no keyboard lights. Its making progress though.

ok cyanogenmod is soundin pretty good right about now but all really want with sense is the benefits which are contacts(sim,tmobile,facebook), myfaves(can kinda do without), gbutton, and the widgets. are there ways to keep these?
Gbutton is now google search and there are sense-like widgets. Also, the facebook app does add friends to contacts.

ok so i went head and put cyanogenmod on it and its really a jaw dropper lol its really cool now i just gotta see if im up to date on my radio because ill get 2g in the weakest areas, 3g in some areas, and H which i heard stood for 4g in most but when i get this it cant connect most of the time, it flickers like its trying :/

[Question] Which Rom?

Just bought my evo 4G and I can't stand HTC sense so what would be the best Rom to put on it, personal preference of course. Also it doesn't have service yet and I wanna flash it with boost mobile does anyone know how to do that? I'm a pretty experienced flasher so I'm not worried.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I highly recommend miui (not sense) and myn's else 5( modded sense). I can't comment on flashing to boost.

No idea on boost but I like mik froyo 4.4 for my rom.
What would be q good gingerbread rom

Personally I think cm7 nightlies are the way to go if you're willing to rough it a little and use a ROM that's in the works. However what works for me may not work for you... I'd go to Dev and try out a few. It doesn't take long to flash a rom and after a couple hours you should be able to know if it'll work for you on a longer term.
yea I'm not a noob at this at all I use the night lies on my mytouch 4g I'm just new to the evo and wanted to get a feel of what the community thought

Any rom recommendations ?

So my sister hasn't updated her OG Evo ever since she rooted it, ( FreshRom 2.2? from about a year ago I believe.) and I was hoping that a native Evo 4g member would recommend me a good stable rom. I was going to do look for a rom myself but people weren't kidding about the massive amount of development the Evo has . I was thinking of getting her the FEARMEde/Rhyme Sense 3.5 Rom since I am currently running the Hydro Sense 3.5 Rom on the 3D, and its pretty smooth and flashy. Thanks in advance.

[Q] Where is Sense 2.1?

I have searched all over the internet to find a strictly sense 2.1 ROM for my beloved EVO. There are none. There is of course MikG 2.1+3.0 ROM, but I am looking for just sense 2.1. How hard is it really to port it over to the EVO? If it's easy, I can just figure out how myself I suppose. I don't want to use the 3D of Sense 3.0 and 3.5, I would simply like to see just one ROM out there for the EVO with Sense 2.1. Thanks to all who have positive input.
Check out warmZ twopointtwo. Make sure you not looking at the regular one

Asking where Sense 2.1 is, to me, is like asking where is WIndows 2000

I would like it because the EVO, or at least my EVO was not meant to run sense 3.0 or up. It just becomes slow no matter what I do. Sense 2.1 is what I've had the best luck with. I would not put windows 2000 on my i3 Lenovo ThinkCenter, but I would not try to put Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite dinosaur laptop. The Evo is a very capable device, but for my needs in a phone, sense 3.5 doesn't cut it.

Thanks for the "help," but those aren't 2.1 ROMs. I am looking at what the EVO Shift and the AT&T HTC Inspire have. FreshEvo looks promising though. Thanks.

I thought that those were, particularly the Sprint Lovers and the ones that say that they were based on stock, as the EVO 4G is not running Sense 3.0 on stock. I didn't see any hybrids when I searched. I did a search for stock roms only. They are running Gingerbread, but so was my EVO before I rooted it. This one is called "Swagged Out Stock". Again, it's Gingerbread, but I believe that it still uses Sense 2.1
The best 2.1 ROM is Koni Elite III

isn't KONI ELITES ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941055) a 2.1?
I think he is looking for a Gingerbread Sense 2.1 port. Koni, while a great ROM, is not that.
OP, I remember a stock port of the EVO Shift by Leoisright. It hasn't been updated, but is straight 2.1.
I don't know why MikG won't work on your phone as I have mine smooth, but look up Leo's port
Edit: Just noticed that the final version was a merge with some Sense 3.0 features. Salvage-Sense is straight Sense 2.1, so hopefully it will work for you.

I don't have the link since I'm on my phone, but the only Rom I remember that was Android v2.3 with Sense v2.1 (without any Sense 3.0 stuff) was made by the Salvagemod guys. Search for that one.
Edit:
Here's the one I meant, "salvage sense":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226578
It's not currently supported anymore because both those guys moved onto other phones, bit its the only pure sense2.1 Rom I remember.

I have MikG right now and it does run very smoothly, I am mostly just wondering why there is no regular sense 2.1 ROM. Why all the modifications? I like MikG I am running 2.53 right now because I like having recent apps in the pulldown bar and 3.0 doesn't have it.

I'm pretty sure you can enable that in the tweaks

Yeah. There should be a tweaks app in the app drawer. I've got the recent apps pull-down in Team Nocturnal's Shooter E3D RLS 4, a Sense 3.0 rom.

MikG 3 does have recent apps -- you just have to long-press on the "Sprint" to make it appear (long-press again to hide). Pretty cool feature.

Does 2.1 have landscape rosie?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I don't think that Rom does... I'd say just flash MikG v3 -- it's super fast and stable, and in the themes and mods section over at themikmik.com there is a landscape rosie. I think MikG is faster than the pure sense2.1 roms, really, and it is still consistently supported.
The only sense Rom I find faster is Tommy's Evo Classic (and even though it's only sense1.0, he's added some awesome stuff to it).

I like the lockscreen of 1.0/2.1. Is there a way to flash it or port it onto MikG 3.0?

Help? More than one Q

First, I would really like to know why my cricket flashed dinc2 will only work well on sense 2.1 roms? With sense 2.1 roms I can get really good coverage with my prl. When I flash sense 3.0, 3.5, 3.6 or 4.0 roms they all only give 1 bar at best. Miui or cm7 roms wont give any signal at all. The service name is Verizon wireless and signal bars never pop up? Anyone know why this is?
Also I was wondering why the skyraider ROM links are all bad? I've really been wanting to try the Rom and I cannot find any GOOD links. Can anyone help with this?

It'd be wonderful if my other answer could be answered. I actually went back to cm7 the other day and low and behold data worked for me, but was really weak. Is the radio in sense 2.1 roms different from EVERY other Rom or something? I'd really like to get off this sense 2.1 Rom...the battery is awful and tbh, its old news lol. Id really like to mess around with other roms but since I use my phone as a hotspot for my ps3 I need data
