With full access to the ROMs and EVOs now, it doesn't seem like it will take long to me. Do any informed experts have any ideas?

took me 7-8 hours to root the samsung moment once we got a copy of the leaked android 2.1....this phone is setup completely different and i dont physically have it to test anything.
im doing some research and hope to figure out a solution, but it'll be hard for me to test it for sure.
if anybody else has some insight with previous HTC and android experience, that'd be great to hear some other opinions?!
or maybe an HTC phone with similar file system structure which was rooted?
joey do u plan on getting this phone? i had a moment but was lucky enough to get the evo off someone that went to i/o.....it would be awesome to have your kernels working on this bad boy!!!

yea, im heavily considering it. i qualify for my upgrade so for $199 and giving up a hardware keyboard for all the great hardware features this has, i think its worth it!
i hope to be able to compile a few kernels for you and everybody else

ah dont even worry about the onscreen keyboard it takes a second to get used to it. that was the reason why i picked the moment over the hero but i still found myself using swype lol. as of now im just using the htc keyboard and its pretty slick so far just have to train the dictionary.
i work for sprint, my indirect rep came in with his evo the other day and so i installed swype 1.25 on it. FREAKIN. AWESOME. also, MAD props to joeykrim. i have the moment and he has done SO many wonderful things with it. but it looks like im going to htc...
EDIT: joey, i would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see you move to the evo and see what that genius brain can cook up. if you ever need a tester, im all over it. been with you on sdx since the days you and speedrabbit were bustin down and fixing 1.5.
IM getting the EVO day of release and maybe another for testing. Let me know when you want to get this thing a try. i just hope it doesn't brick XD
knowing joeykrim, once he gets his grubby hands on an Evo - it'll be rooted there soon after.
glad to see some familiar names over here guys...
Looks like the question has just about been answered :>

HTC Evo 4G rooted in record time

Yeah but in case you guys haven't heard the shipped 2.1 rom you guys get may not be final. Sprint could easily push an update to close off root. Just look in the hero section, the final 2.1 RUU is still not able to be rooted by our best devs. Im not trying to worry anybody but it is a possibility.
Due to a recent little issue I am having I am doing a clean sweep of my HTC Incredible.
I am currently on CM7, with radio .28 , rooted , unrevoked forever, busybox... you know... things and stuff and things...
I am looking for suggestions for what I should do next.
What ROM?
What Kernel?
What Radio?
I am going on a LONG plane trip very soon so maximizing battery life would be nice without sacrificing too much in the way of power. Or heck, go for max power and show me how to REALLY crank this thing up. Just go with what you feel is the optimal setup so I can give it a try. Thanks for your input!

I wasn't aware of the fact that ROMs actually flashed the kernel as well. I thought that the kernel was something lower than the rom. As for "stock" radio, I can only seem to find posts on modded ones. Any idea as to where I can snag the original one? Thanks!

This is a popular setup because of how smooth chad's kernel and CM7 works together.
9.01 is better on the battery, however 4.08 provides faster 3G speeds (in my numerous testing between them)

Well i'm surprised at the amount of replies this has gotten. I've already done the first guy's suggestion and I will say it's pretty snappy. I am doing backups of each setup idea and will post my thoughts on each one.
The first one with Rom-Incredible Reingeneered Z is really quick to respond and has lots of nice features. I'm just not crazy about sense is all. I'd like to smash this with an AOSP ROM for the gallery, launcher, and graphical effects that something like CyanogenMod has. However... I suppose the "Pretty effects" are what causes it to not respond AS quickly. For sure it's being saved away for further toying with ( yay for 16gb memory card! lol )

I'm not sure what graphic effects you're looking for, but Cyanogen has the fancy TV-off animation and when paired with ADW EX, you have fancy screen transitions as well. BTW, CyanogenMod 7.0.2 just came out, I'm flashing it now, I'll see if it's as stable as the latest nightlies.
EDIT: Seems that video recording isn't working on 7.0.2, I'm going with nightly #56.

I'm assuming 7.0.2 and 7.0.0 aren't THAT different that the solution wouldn't work anymore. However, I've been wrong before. I am flashing 7.0.2 and trying the second suggestion's setup and seeing how that goes for me. I will keep you posted!
Hm, it seems weird that the radio would affect the camera but hey if it works! Also I know some people use the MIUI camera, perhaps video recording works on that? Let us know how 7.0.2 works out. I rarely ever record video but like to have it available if needed.

My EVO 4G just had a run in with a 2x12 and didn't survive to well so I'm thinking about picking this up from Sprint. I only really have 2 questions about it.
1. Is the SD slot behind the battery cover or is it on the side of the phone?
2. Does this phone have Cyanogenmod running on it? Do the standard SGS II Cyanogenmod roms run on it?
1, The SD slot is under the battery cover.
2. CyanogenMod is in development and there are no ROMs available yet.
There are about 15 ROMs available from other developers (not CM yet):

So the sgs ii cm7 rom doesn't work here? That is pretty much a major deal to me. Is there any ICS going on here?
There isn't any cm yet. The other phones aren't compatible with cdma. Coming from an eris (Verizon hero) you won't mind not having cm too much there are plenty of good roms and it isn't like sense where it screws the entire phone unless you have cm. There is an alpha release of 7 but that's it for now.

i used CM7 on my droid1 and htc evo and they were nice.
but trust me, the calkulin 2.6 is awesome
super battery life much better than what you got with cm7 on its best day.
just bc it doesnt have cm7... shouldnt deter you
i think this is the best phone on sprint right now.
and the dev community for the et4g is very good. aside from bashing noobs who are lazy... hahaha
I was gonna go htc.. but seriously, i am loving samsung.

Sense4All is team of developers looking to get sense 4.0 on all Samsung devices so we may have more options for our arsenals. They are on the verge of releasing a Galaxy S3 Version but are having problems getting internal storage and WiFi to work. If you are a developer who is interested in helping the project come along further please to to their website sense4all.info and see if you could throw aroung some ideas with their devs it'd be a shame to let the work and idea go to waste.

I came across that site a couple weeks ago and it doesn't look very promising so far. Their furthest along ROMS, for devices that have been out for a long time, are still barely functioning. But maybe if they throw enough people at the SGSIII, they can get something that works OK by the time my warranty is up in a year and I dive into different ROMS.
I'm definitely going to keep my eye on this, because TouchWiz sucks balls... but it's going to take more than just booting with pretty much nothing working before I get my hopes up.
I'd help if I could since I'm one of the guys who wants this to come to fruition, but I have no development skills at all. I hope you guys can get it worked out though and look forward to seeing the finished product.

You are? I think touchwiz is an improvement over sense (not saying TW is awesome or anything, most ROMs have better UIs). I was in a Sprint store looking for a Case-Mat Pop (kickstand) for my phone a few days back, and I played around with the Evo LTE. I was really unimpressed with the latest Sense and was glad I went Sammy for this 2 year go around.

Removable battery, expandable memory, & AT&T exclusive...
I'll admit TouchWiz 4 has REALLY improved. But, Sense, even with its problems, still has a lot of function that's hard to let go of.
Would it be easier to get on the US variants?
I only say that because put the Adreno graphics on the S4 chips. I remember the NS4G Sense ports having issues with graphics because of the Hummingbird processor.
|Trolling with a smile|
Went with sammy for the removable battery mainly. The first couple of days with the s3 without a spare battery was killing me. Ofcourse it was a new phone so I was playing with it a lot and trying out different roms etc and battery went down fast. Plus I still had to use it to make calls and text so I had it hooked up to a charger everywhere I was (home, work, car). I was always afraid of it going down to 40% battery lol. Anyway after getting a spare OEM battery + charger all is well again. No more worries specially when I went out.
Touchwiz isnt bad but sense just looks nicer to me and not having to install extra widgets (twitter, facebook, weather) was nice. Also like the weather lock screen. I miss that.
Anyhow I'm now with tmobile and Im hoping these guys will port it over to all the carriers and not just sprint.
i know the answer already.....depends on what u want.
but i want to know which is better for the following:
good battery life
great speed (the stock phone is already snappy enough...i dont see how that can be improved really..)
better volume
alot of customization (nav buttons, fast usb charge, etc..)
very stable in every for all the options...like stable wifi, bluetooth, gps and everything.
i noticed some of the ROMs have complaints on network speeds. i dont know enough about this whole thing to understand y the rom would effect that. but i would like to know which ones are best for a phone thats been purchased straight from the play store. right now i have liquid smooth rom. its pretty good. cant complain. but i dont think it has the increased volume option.
if all this has been discussed b4, im sorry but i couldnt find it.
also, some of the roms keep stating how they improved scrolling or made it any faster...i dont understand this....with stock JB rom just straight out of the box....how can u make it any smoother or faster....its practically at top speed limit. and smoother than this and ur gonna break some sort of laws of physics...i cant even tell the difference but my greedy side wants the best and fastest...just so my mind is at ease. lol anyway, any input would b greatly appreciated. thanks
Well stock rooted with tweaks is prolly the best look for a non themed debloated from with ram/build prop/ and unit.d tweaks

Yeah, what Darunion said, stock is most stable. If you want tons of customizations options try AOKP.
Yes stock is the most stable. But I can suggest you Paranoid Rom.
Like you said, there's no best. But here's a little list of ROMs that I would like to shout out.
AOKP- Most customizable imo. Also unicorns!
Codenameandroid- Also another very customizable ROM.
CM10- Really stable and fast.
Paranoid Android- Hybrid mode. Makes the apps of the phone super customizable
Baked- Inverted. Theoretically gives more battery life, because of the black theme.
Stock- Most stable.
Have a good day

im gonna assume that the roms that u listed at the bottom are probably the "gooder" ones of the rest. so i wont bother with anything else...im gonna give these a try.

thats what im using now. its not bad at all. the only issue i have i guess is that i dont think that rom has its own volume mod. so i flashed a seperate kernel that had that. other than that i havent found anything wrong with it. its pretty good.
OP why do you want others to do your work for you? In most cases all the features are listed in the OP of the ROM. SO if you are looking specifically for the volume mod, find one that has it, back up your phone and flash it.

thanks for the title change. noticed that.
the reason is because im fairly new to this phone. i know for SURE that this phone has TONS of devs working on it. and im pretty dam sure it has just as many ROMs. which is great lol. and alot of people who have been with this phone since the beginning and have probably used almost every ROM and know all the roms and which ones are best. so instead of me trying to do what they did from the start, i wanted to take the short cut and learn from everyone elses errors and experiences. i dont mean to offend anyone or speak out of place. but you gotta admit, flashing every single rom in a row to test it out for myself would take a long time. i can just ask people who have already done all that and theyll tell me. which is what happened. and once again im very grateful for everyones help so far. even though im still flashing most roms one after another just to check which is better. lol. but you guys steered me in the right direction.
Flashing several different ROMS and digging through threads is part of the fun.
I am personally using Affinity with Franco's kernel and love this combo. I have tried about 6 or 7 different JB ROMs and find Affinity to be my favorite. It has some customization but not an overwhelming amount and it's stable. I have had this setup for about 3 weeks and have had zero issues.
Try quite a few but I would tell anyone to start with AOKP and CM10 and branch out from there.

I would think that it would be unstable at 1.8ghz. Try it at 1.2ghz.
I use it at its defaults except I change color calibration and sometimes mess with governor.
