I assume you haven't rooted?
You'd have to flash (install) a ROM that's based off of Gingerbread. Right now, there are only two or three of those
I have rooted & flashed myns warm. that's what I'm worried about..or my question I guess. How would I get gingerbread on my rooted phone.

Like would I update through Sprint or is it something I have to do manually?

Manually or wait until they push it out officially.
Using my HTC Evo phone which I'm using Xda app to post
At the moment you would have to do it manually. As far a I am aware the few roms that are available are not yet completely stable, and not all the features are working. Cyanogen is working on CM7/gingerbread, but has not released a build. Sounds like they're getting close though, as he tweeted he's using it as his daily driver.

there are 3 Gingerbread ROMs in the Android Development forum thus far. They're all in Alpha or early Beta forms currently, and for most people are not stable or feature-full enough to be daily users.
If you're new to rooting I'd shy away from flashing experimental Alpha builds unless you're ready for some troubleshooting. It might be in your best interest to wait until they are more general public ready.
If you are interested, here are the links to the 3 I'm aware of:
Comes tweaked so far. Not really stock:

Pretty much stock:

Pretty much stock as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881557
I've personally used the 2nd and 3rd. Both worked for me but not without some issues for sure.
Oh and no matter what, get very familiar with recovery and NAND BACKUPS (nandroid). Especially when trying these alpha roms, get used to backing up your working roms and restoring them.
Everyone is so helpful but I'm not trying to do anything with my phone until it's officialy released. I just don't know how being rooted effects updating. I don't know if I'm wording this correctly...lol sorry
what my friend is trying to tell you sinse you are rooted you have to wait untill a rom w/ gingerbread on it which he provided some for you. and if you apply it manually you may be un-rooted then until unrevoke or others can break it .

CM7 is the closest. Was using as a daily driver until yesterday to run Z3. Everything but 4g, which no GB rom has.
Check out the cyanogen forums for the latest nightly builds, and the CM7 thread in the general section for any Q's or info.

A friend of mine has an EVO, I do not nor have I ever used an evo before. He wanted a custom ROM installed and asked me for help. I would greatly appreciate any help offered by the community.
1. What ROM is closest to stock(If gingerbread is out for it then a gingerbread build would be nice), just tweaked/debloated/deodexed/zip aligned etc.
2. How well is CM7 running on the EVO? I have a captivate and CM7 right now is pretty unstable this is going to be his main ROM and he isnt too technical.
3. What rom has a good/easy update flow. Maybe something with rom manager where he can just click update and all is well in the world.
Thank you SO much in advance.

There are plenty of stock roms and there is a couple gingerbread floating around somewhere i believe as well so your winning on that.
Cm7 i believe is very stable rom and many people enjoy it. Not me but people really enjoy cyanogens work.

Flashing a Custom (even stock) Rom and then not wanting to update to the latest and greatest...ya....ok....NOT. Your friend will get a taste of what this is like and BOOM...hooked. The Rom I linked has a great OP in support. Enjoy the fun that you already know is gonna take hold of the phone your about to set free!
EDIT: Thought I'm sure this goes without saying, but will do anyway. Remind them......DO NOT...accept OTA updates even if they can...just sayin..lmao
CM7 or Death! I played with a lot of Sense roms for quite a while, but I determined they are nothing but bloat. CM7 is superfast, and I couldn't ask for much more in stability.

All ics roms we have are not on XDA except for 2
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yeah and ics is still so new and not complete its going to take time to put that all together but be patient and it will come soon...
for best ics rom I would personally go with Jared the Greats ICS rom, which is available on blazing-roms.com
At the moment I'm using the MazWoz ICS Beta 2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481091) and it seems pretty stable to me but the only thing that I've found is the gallery bugs out sometimes.
I think you should wait on the ICS roms because I have been searching this site for a good 2 weeks for it. I tried the jared the great one. It isn't too special but it works if your that desperate. Give it 1-2 months and it will be all over the place!
Please search before opening a new thread. There is no best rom. Only best for you.
Thread closed
Greetings everyone,
I would like to start off by apologizing for bothering you folks with yet another "what's the best ROM for having X and doing Y" thread, although I felt that after searching I had a rather specific criteria, which I'm hoping someone may be able to address.
I have been using Virtuous Affinity for awhile now, and frankly I'm starting to feel old It seems like ICS has been out forever while I'm still on gingerbread. I am a little unclear on what the official status is of ICS support though; I thought I remembered hearing some talk about HTC potentially having an ICS based update in the works, although past that I know nothing. Browsing around, I'm a little discouraged by some of the known issues ICS roms may have; no camera support, broken audio/bluetooth, things like that.
What I would optimally like to have is a fully functioning ICS ROM. Stable, good performance, nice on the battery, etc. etc. UI wise, I have become accustomed to HTC's Sense UI, but even then I'm very foggy on what the differences are between their major versions (I've been hearing of 2.0 and 3.0). To be honest though, I wouldn't mind trying a new UI. I've liked the one Samsung puts on their Galaxy SIII.
Above all, stability is my goal. I'm not too comfortable with the trailblazing "nightly" builds and testing ROMs; having a working phone is pretty important to me. Now you might say, "Well, why even root to begin with?" Okay, I like to experiment a little bit
But I digress. What is there in the wonderful and magical world of ROMs?
P.S. I think it would be really useful if there was a sticky going something like "State of the ROM", which pulls together a list of ROMs and highlights their features and issues in an easy to compare manner (so a step up from the currently stickied ROM compilation thread)

Thanks for the suggestions, guys! I suppose I might want to give Evervolv a shot (Wifi is fixed I hope?) although I'm a little unclear about installing it. Most OPs post a tutorial for flashing ROMs, and while I would feel a little more comfortable flashing Evervolv on my own, it seems like there a new hoops you have to jump through for flashing ICS/JB roms. Could anyone guide me through the steps?
If you are rooted and have installed a custom recovery, go ahead and download the ROM of your choice, then install it from the recovery using install zip from SD card, then install the correct Google apps whether 4.2 gapps or 4.1 gapps
After that you restart and wait for the room to boot.
I highly recommend installing crossbreeder after the first boot, and then you are done!!!

Why would you start by apologizing. You are acknowledging that this is redundant. Read the threads that are already there. You aren't asking anything new. And even if you were, you could ask in an existing thread. And if the rom doesn't give specific instructions it means you flash it the same way as any other. Read the op in the thread for each rom and try usually state what works and doesn't.

Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
I think you might be misunderstanding my OP... Yes, I am aware that the general form of the question has been asked, although I wanted to see how the community felt about the priorities I put forth in looking for a ROM (hence why I later suggested that a sticky stacking the ROMs against each other with their features and flops would be useful). I realize now that a lot of the ICS roms don't exactly meet what I was looking for anyways, and that I would have to take some relatively larger risks. Alas, I am going forth with trying one of the suggested ones.
And I believe asking in another thread would be considered hijacking by most forums? I see it's not explicitly mentioned in the rules, although I would expect people to keep questions to their own threads as a matter of courtesy.
I sometimes forget people can't hear the tone my tone of voice when I type. I meant laying down the law in a good way.
To the OP. Perhaps you would like to work on your suggested project of comparing the roms and once then we can all add our input to your list?

I didn't take it negatively. And your suggestion is spot on with what I was about to reply. Something my pastor says when people come to him with new ministry ideas, "that sounds great, I'm putting you in charge of that committee." Usually people want stuff done but want someone else to do it.
People don't generally make those threads because like this one they get redundant. The features are listed in the rom thread. Questions pertaining to the rom are asked in that thread. If someone wants to make a thread like you suggest that's fine, but what happens is someone comes in and instead of reading the rom thread they start asking questions in the new thread that have been answered already and the op constantly has to refer people to go read that thread.

Hello everyone! I am really new to flashing roms and as such know very little about them. I hope everyone here can give some advice on which to use.
I got away from the stock rom because it was ugly as sin, seemed to be battery hungry, and so restricted.
What I'm looking for in a rom is improved battery life over stock, improved speed, useful features baked right in like halo, and the ability to make it look exactly the way I want without having to install a 3rd party launcher, and last but not least working 3g/4g would be nice.
Currently I'm useing cm 10.2 nightly. I like the power savings, the speed, and my data works. But I would like a halo like feature and a bit more room for customization.
Thank you in advance for any tips you can give!

Welcome to the forums and the Optimus G! You've made yourself a great choice getting this phone
Glad to see you are already rooted and ROM'd as well. A good ROM for customization would be either Beanstalk, Carbon ROM, Dirty Unicorns, AOKP, etc. Pretty much every ROM that isn't CM will give you good customization options. And I know that Carbon has working Halo too.
I've been saying this everywhere on the forums, and I'm gonna say it here; if you can find some of the old 4.2.2 ROMs, I suggest you give those a whirl. The only real bug with 4.2.2 ROMs is camera autofocus. It requires a workaround with a script. But those ROMs are solid as ever and have really good battery life, way better than 4.3 in my honest opinion. And the newer stock based LG ROMs are better than ever as well. Amazing battery life and super smooth performance with those.
So, to be honest, you really can't go wrong with any of the ROMs floating around here. Get to downloading and figure out what you like Just remember to frequently make backups of your ROMs in TWRP (ESPECIALLY a stock ROM for prl/profile purposes) before going on flashing sprees, just in case something goes wrong. This is also one of the nicest Android communities I've ever been a part of, so please don't be afraid to ask in the threads for help with whatever you need. We're all like one big family here.
Cheers!
I personally am stuck on AOKP 4.3 (Build 9/11)
Haven't flashed a ROM in almost a month, Im pretty content
Awesome! Thanks guys for the info. A lot of good info to consider. Any idea where I might find the 4.2 roms? I just was looking around the Internet and could only find links to 4.3 based roms.
As far as a back up of my original stock rom I was foolish and didn't back it up. I have been reading a bit about updating my prl and such, to be honest it seems a bit daunting.
My question is, why can't there just be a button to it like in Stock roms, but on every rom. Seems like it should be easy for the devs to put one in considering how smart they are.

Check out spleef's goo.im account. He has all of the 4.2 ROMs there, and there's a CM10.1 (4.2.2) thread as well with CM10.1 nightlies still being pushed. And to update the profile/prl is actually quite easy. When in stock ROM, simply go to system settings > system updates, and all the options are right there. Connect to your wifi, and update your stuff. Really simple. It IS possible to update profile/prl from AOSP, but to be honest, I've only ever seen that feature on one ROM only, and that was the Helly Bean ROM back on my old Samsung Epic 4G. Like I said, I've only ever seen that feature on just that ROM, so maybe it was either broken, or worthless lol.
As far as the differences go between Carbon and PAC, it is true that those ROMs have a lot of the same customization options, but I'm guessing the real differences are made under the hood. To be quite honest, I don't know why, but I actually haven't even ran a PAC ROM on this phone yet. I really don't know why, lol. Maybe all the options are just too overwhelming for me. I like for my AOSP ROMs to be simple, but with some options.

Do you mean ClockWorkMod touch recovery? I never used that on this phone. TWRP recovery is much more superior for this device.

Wait wait, you PAID for the recovery?? Errrrmmm... Sorry to say, but you kinda wasted your money, lol. I mean, its good that you supported the developer, but.... Yeah, you totally didn't have to pay for it, lol.
The difference between the two is, I think, that our devices just "prefers" TWRP. I mean, if CWM is working for you flawlessly, then great. No need to switch. But there's been cases were flashing ROMs and kernels with CWM just doesn't work properly. Why, I don't know. Maybe its something within the coding, or the device itself conflicts with the recovery, but TWRP is the way to go, and has now, at least I think, universally replaced CWM as the standard recovery for most Android devices across the board recently.
But like I said, if CWM is working for you with no issues, then stick with that!
I am somewhat new to them also but I will chime in. anything I have used I got from the site so you can find it or more current there.
Beanstalk - this has TONS of customization you can change just about everything. battery life is much better than stock. built on 4.3 - the keyboard is miles better than stock! has HALO built in <- I did not use it
Carbon - good ROM about the same as above, but not quite the adjust ability. battery life was good.
Optimized - built on the stock 4.1.2 battery life was amazing. with it sitting there just doing status checks no browsing it lost 2% in 6 hours!! my cell data dropped out and I could not get it back so I had to reflash (went back to beanstalk)
I am digging beanstalk. I have flashed most of the ROMs and it hits a nice middle ground between cm and pacman.

Currently using carbon, I like it except I'm getting battery life on par with the stock rom and my screen flickers often. Next I will be trying Beanstalk rom.

Slimbean pimpin. So far so good.
Just gonna ask here (so I don't have to make a new thread too) if I root the G, will I lose all data on internal storage?
thanks in advance. I am new here.
