Hi everyone, I'm just trying to find a good rom that has 4g and fully operational. Love the warm 2.2 but don't know whats better to try.speed is key with battery perks.thanks for the help

I'm new to the whole rooting scene but from my understanding all sense based roms have functional 4g. I think cm7 now has 4g also. I've tried mikfroyo and am currently using koni's elite series II beta and both had functional 4g. Hope this helps and if I'm wrong on any of this some one please correct me.

Your running the best one if you like sense. CM7 4x is good if you want to run senseless
All sense roms will have working 4g. Cm7 is not fully functional but the 4g works OK. all other AOSP roms(not very common) wont have 4g for a while.
A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
if you stick with the sense popular roms, mikfroyo, warm, etc, you are good to go. Ultimately it depends on what tweaks you like.
Try calkulin with battery saver mod
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yep. All Sense based ROMs will work with 4G enabled. CM7 natively doesn't have 4G but there is a version of CM7 called gginggerbread-6 in the development section that has working 4G.
As for battery life, it depends on your phone. You will have to test that yourself. Make sure you calibrate your battery properly and test it for a week. It is based on the ROM, kernel and overclock/underclock settings, and your usage. So its pretty daunting. My suggestion is once you find a good working kernel and ROM, stick with it for battery life.
If you aren't sure which ROMs to try, check out the poll in my signature for the most popular.
Thank you all so much for the help

Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo, done! Close thread...lol
There are many Rom's that are good.
It's just a question of which one you like and then stick with it.
I have tested just about all of them. But keep coming back to Fresh, I have been mainly on 3.3.0.1. If you donate to his cause you can also get his kitchen which lets you do more on it.
Plus there are so many themes that you can change it's look without really changing the ROM.
Good luck Flashing, and Remember Nandroid is your friend here.
Oh I also use amon_ra as it's been the best at clearing the Caches for flashing.
Vaekpak for minimal SENSE with 4g.
MIUI if 4g and MMS ever get resolved.

I'm on the latest Nightly with Snap BFS. Came from the DesireHD rom. That rom is the definition of sick, but unfortunately it's battery life is the worst I've seen on the Evo.
Calkulin's 1.3.1
Best rom I found. Myn's warm is nice too but I prefer calkulin's.

Go Fresh Evo 3.3.0.1
The kernel within is HTC updated which puts hit on battery life , netarchy-toastmod-4.1.9.1 cfs kernel is a excellent replacement.
That ROM & kernel combined provides stability top notch performance.

Sure, sounds good....How do we get that done?
J/K. There are some great Roms out there by many developers each offering it's own flavor....My personal favorite is Myn's. I might be biased here because of my HTC Vogue days and his ability to turn that device into a fully operating Android machine! His EVO Rom offers stability, speed, looks, and something that just says wow....
Also, if you want the next best thing but can live without some features and don't mind things not being perfect, check out Zippy's Desire HD Rom. Also Bcnices's MIUI Rom.
I am pretty sure Calkulin's Rom would be pretty close to perfect as I have ran his prior versions on my EVO and they have worked well.....Also check out Virus and Ava. I am sure I am forgetting some of the other top dogs out there.
Most of the developers have gotten a pretty good handle on there Roms so I suggest reading through them to see what the comments are within the thread which should help with your decision making.....
You can find most of the Roms within the first 2 pages.....If it has fallen below that, I would question it....

2nd that. I also use Calkulin's 1.3.1 and after adjusting oc profiles to 1152, I get amazing speed and battery life. Also did away with HTC scene for ADW and found all the widgets lost with HTC scene like music player and grid calendar. Really dumped HTC for ADW for landscape support. Just make sure to pick one as default because you will take a hit with both running.
I tried almost all the roms here and it depends of your flavor lol, anyways sense roms favorite is myns is just looks clean and functional with eye candy ha ha but fresh and calkulin Rom are good as well and fast and stable. I'm trying evervolv v 0.2 I it comes with the slate theme from desire HD dump Rom and it looks really good so far it looks stable, if you don't like sense then I hues CM 6 will be good, the other roms are great but never left them for over a day idk y ha ha, there is one that I like but I forgot the name and is new too. I think this guys are doing a great job with their roms that have manage to put something really good for us and they all deserve credit

If you want something that looks different and works great.
I recommend Evo Zone. It is by far the best looking Rom out here. It is original and creative in its look.
As far as battery life goes, you can try different kernels till you find the one that works best for you.

I really like Burnt Droid 1.2, Fresh 3.3.0.1 with netarchy 4.1.9.1 CFS and Ava Froyo v9 with Kings CFS #10.
These ROM's have been fast, stable & battery friendly for me.
Sent from my EVO running Ava Froyo v9 with Kings CFS #10.
I like Ava Froyo v9 with LowRider Theme Over It.
Also my rom Sexy Evo Has awesome download speeds, and a sexy rosie, but i dont update it that much.
So I finally got my wipe to upgrade from her dumbphone to a smartphone (Droid Inc.) and I'm looking into what are the best ROMS available *if* she lets me hack her phone.
I'm new to this arena since I have a Droid X so I want to know from people's experiences what is the best ROM for the DInc? From doing a quick look through it seems like CyanogenMod 6, SkyRaider Sense or Redemptive rEVOlution might be possible candidates.
I know the CyanogenMod ROM is one of the big ones but I'd like to keep the Sense UI on her phone to make it as easy as possible to use for her (and I do like HTC's overlay.)
So any thoughts? Opinions? Suggestions?

I love Cyanogen, if you're looking for Vanilla ROM this is a great choice. I'm using CM6.0.2 right now and I love it. CM6.1 RC1 should be dropping very soon, it's not 100% stable but Cyanogen himself it could be used as your daily driver

I'd stay away from the Desire HD and Z ports until the camera issues are resolved.
I'm using redemptive revolution 1.9 and loving it right now. It just got updated with new framework so its the latest and greatest in my book!
I love the Desire Z port from IncredibleDoes but some people need the camera or would like to have the cam, if that's the case try SkyRaider 3.3.2 its the best one out there for me.
Uncommon Sense
I will stick with Uncommon Sense Rom, its the most Stable free bug HTC Incredible Rom, the feels is likely Sense OEM manufacturer, I did not find any lack at all with the exception of APk Drawer little lag scrolling up. as well is the best of the two world android/Sense blended.
All the rest of the HTC Incredible Rom have several problems that have to be address and for sure Updates will be available to Roms like Sky raider and Virtuous.
Most ROMs are good, but also aren't 100% done. To be honest, if you wife uses her phone a lot and isn't a tinkerer just keep it the way it is lol.
Once camera issues are resolved the desire ports will pretty much be in a league better than any of the custom roms based on earlier sense. I would also strongly recommend miui except that many of the really useful sense widgets have no equivalent ones in aosp roms. I would recommend aosp roms only for people who are ok with constantly tinkering with their phones, not for your wife who will probably want.something that just works.
Until then redemptive, virtuous, skyraider are good choices.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
I have tried a bunch of Roms and all of them have their strong points. This is all a matter of personal preference.
That being said, I would recommend Virtuous with the custom kernel or new stock kernel and here are the reasons:
1. It is very stable and fast.
2. Good battery life.
3. Nothing is removed or modded that cannot be readded or turned back on using the tools the developer provided (Virtuous Buddy).
4. Great dev support.
This is not the only Rom I use, but it is definitely the only Rom I would put on my wifes phone.

I switch between Redemption and Redemptive Revolution.
I like Redemption with Kings BFS #5 kernel the best, amazing battery life! It just "feels" good to me.
Wow nice! Thanks for all the recommendations! I don't think I've heard of Virtuous so I'll check that one out.
Also to commenton the tinkering part, she definitely isn't into tinkering...in fact she complains when I tinker with my phone for too long LOL
Going ASOP isn't really an option since the base Android UI is lacking without some extra apps so the Sense UI is perfect for her. I do plan on (obviously) rooting the phone and setting up SetCPU but any additional improvements custom ROMS make are always nice to have.

The two most popular right now seem to be myn's and mikfroyo
Sent from my HTC Supersonic
Myn's rom. It should be near the top of the dev forum...it is very popular.
I am currently running mikfroyo and love it. It is a lightweight rom which is nice because it's pretty fast. Myn's is very pretty and has alot of customization options. I think myn's has a bigger following, if that matters. I would recommend both roms but literally depending on my mood I will use myn's or mikfroyo.
Swyped from my Evo on steroids.
I have MikFroyo 4.5 right now and I think so far I like it more than any other sense ROM, in the past month, I've been on Myn, Ava, Azrael, Evio and MikFroyo (mutliple versions of most of these) and Mik's is def the fastest, although they were all functional and smooth.
However, if you just want roam control, you can use Cyanogen Mod because it has a built in feature that you can switch to roam only. You don't need the app.
Ohh thanks i didn't know that. Well r there any other features u lose with Cm6 that u can use on a sense rom?

EPST, which you probably won't use anyway. AOSP and Sense ROMs are both good in their own ways, and are both equally customizable. MIUI is what I'm running now. Fast, but don't like it that much. Sense based is my preference with both MikFroYo and Myn. I prefer MikFroYo 4.4 over Myn 2.2, but both are really good ROMs. Mik's 4.4 seems a tad faster.
There's nothing really important you'll lose with any ROM (in my opinion anyway) so just flash a few different ones and stick with what you like.
Altho I do think I was getting better battery life with Myn 2.2, but I might be playing around with my phone more getting it back to how I like it so that could be draining juice.
i use Myn rls5 as my daily driver but right now im using Ava Z3 .... i really like Z3 if i could get the battery to calm down.

Not true actually...Roam Control should work with any rom that you use.
However, previous posters are correct in that CM6 has a roam only option built in, it's called "affiliated networks".

I'm a noob, so feel free to set me straight. I have tried several of the custom roms and while I enjoy certain aspects (speed, UI, themes, etc.), they all have small quirks or seem incomplete.

All of these roms are fantastic but I prefer synergy then kingdom roms
Battery life might be awful but give it 2 days and the battery life will settle in...
Later there will be custom kernels to increase battery life so much but htc hasnt released their kernel source yet
I've tried them and they have great a great feel. I don't understand why Netflix and Hulu is such a priority w/o working hdmi. Cart before the horse.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
hdmi will come soon. once htc releases the kernel source, somebody will put in HDMwIn mods into the kernel, and you can use the HDMwIn app with it. so that's where hdmi will come from.
same with battery life. havs, smartass, undervolting, and sbc will all come once htc releases the source.
btw: flash synergy. flash the 3.0 carousel rosie in the same recovery session. laugh in the face of danger.
I like Alliance a lot, but I'm back to stock rooted again. Synergy had some issues but not bad. I even tried team xron's 3d port, but it has some serious compatibility issues.

seems to me that if your base supports hdmi, adding a sense 3.0 UI would not be an issue. I thought most of the developers were using a shift base. I guess if it were easy someone would have a fully functional Rom by now.

bcuz shift has gingerbread and sense 2.1 now (luckyyyy). doing it that way was easier than porting a sense 3.0 rom, and we got 4g right off the bat. but it's still a sense 3.0 rom in everything except base and rosie apk (and you can always flash a sense 3.0 rosie)

ok thanks i didn't kno this. i wonder what other options there are.....
i've found that virus rom is probably the best if you are used to sense and want all the functions with all the stability. flashed different releases on 2 differents evos and both superior to stock sense and no noticeable issues. - always did full wipe with amon ra. (although i personally stick to AOSP, EVO Deck Gingerbread 1.2 specifically... i flash sense if its a new rom or if i need dialer) there's my 2 cents
my brother is curently using an aosp rom on his evo but it lags its very slow and just the signal on i stinks. what rom can i install in his phone that is good. and as in good i mean sense or sensless, that has everything working as well as 4g. fast that will not make his phone slow and if possible will get a really god benchmark score? just a very good fast reliable rom. please and thank you!
A few good roms I've tried: Currently running nitrous 1.5.1 great battery life with stock sbc kernel, SOS by swagstr has the amazing aroma installer with TONS of options, sense or senseless, if you'd like to try something different, check out decks reloaded. It really is top notch gingerbread. Also if you want to keep the same Rom try changing kernels or updating your pri or radios.
