Need help with finding a good rom for 4G - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have had my Evo sense September of last year. I ran fresh for the longest time then kinda got tired of sense and then used Cyanogenmod 6.0-6.1 and had used that for quite a while. Now that I have unofficial 4G in my area...what is a good rom to use? I have tried fresh and it works all right. I'm looking for ether a sense based rom or AOSP...I want recommendations and a little info about your experiences.

MOAR??? you mean more lol

Warm's TwoPointTwo (RLS5).

Azrael X v4.0 is nice if you like a swift and stable rom. It's very quick.

I flashed that rom earlier today and I love it...I flashed the z version of it which I guess has the new sense on it. I love it...only thing is no 4G...otherwise it would be perfect

mikfroyo 4.5 has been good to me

I will second MikFroyo 4.5. Very stable, fast, and everything works. Lots of great people in that forum that will help you as well.

Ava froyo z3 works great good battery life thats why i love it

Koni Elite II is fast, great battery life, and looks cool

CM7 is my favorite, although I think I'll stick to Warm Z (no 4g) for a few more days.

Ava Z3 right now for Sense, MIUI for AOSP...except no 4g yet. Can't wait until they get it from CM

How fast and reliable is it compared to a sense rom??? I love AOSP but for some reason 4G/3G speeds are a lot slower then any sense rom I've ever used

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.

Really?
I guess we can just delete all the other ROM threads then too..
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.

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.

Any Roms as solid as CM6 for the EVO?

The only 2 I've tried are MIUI and CM. Any recomendations

If you don't want Sense, probably not. I'm currently running the CM6 + Wimax alpha, which I really like.
As far as Sense ROMs go, Calkulin's EViO is my favorite.
FWIW, you're probably better off asking these kinds of questions in the Q&A forum.
I am also running alpha2. Mikfroyo is my fav sense rom. Sooperfast feel.
CM7 Nightlies are coming out tonight. You could try one of those once the first EVO build drops.
I seemed to have nothing but problems with CM6. There was a lot of churn with the different versions of ClockWork recovery, but even when I used RA Recovery I still had issues. I finally gave up and switched to VaelPak 3.0 with the netarchy 4.1.9.1 Kernel and all is well. Seems to be a solid combo for me at least.
On a semi related note will cm6 themes be compatible with cm7?

Agree that Calkulin's ROMs are very stable. He cooks some very nice ROMs. He is pretty reliable about updates and addressing issues. EViO line of ROMs are quick and they are stable. Have had the pleasure of using Cal's kitchens back in the WinMo days...he is one of the best!!

First off, wrong forum. This belongs in Q&A.
Second, this is all but insulting. There are at least 5 good ROMs on every page. Click on some and look at them. Are you too lazy to do the work yourself?
Finally, here are a list of ROMs that are all very good ROMs in my opinion. I hate to even respond to someone who's too lazy to do their own work, but I think the devs deserve credit for making other VERY GOOD ROMs:
Salvage 0.9.6 <-- My current, 2.3, most stable ROM I've ever used
Myn's Warm RLS5
MIUI
Evervolv is ok
Frost is great, but needs to be updated
MikFroyo
Azrael

Best sense rom?

I just found out that roam control only works with sense based roms? It doesn't make sense lol but im new what r some good sense roms. I just want one that's fast...
A link would great... Thanks

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?
Again im new but thanks

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".

Just got root-Which Rom to Run

Hey guys I just got root and installed Clockwork Mod and backed up everything. I'm just wondering what ROM does everyone think is best. I prefer AOSP but I can't seem to find what bugs are exactly in CM7 for INC2. Also thanks to rivera82falcon for the extremely helpful/clear instructions on how to root.
I'm running cm7 nightly 39 and so far I haven't seen any bugs or had any reboots whatsoever. And I'm also running tiamat. 1.1 and am overclocked to 1.5 ghz and the battery life is even better than it was stock. Noticeably better.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App
I use OMFGB with Tiamat 1.0.4. I also tried CM7 before. It really is a matter of preference. Give them all a shot and see what you like best.
Thanks for the responses I went with CM so far so good. I haven't had any issues so far.
I'd say CM7 Latest Nightly + Tiamat Kernel for the best setup IMO, if you want sense go with TrueLefty or RMK's roms.
I've used CM7, MIUI, and Incredible Sensation
Each one was stable, and each has it's ups & downs...if you like AOSP the CM7 nightly train is great!
I am using MIUI currently with the Tiamat 1.1 kernel. Phone flies. Haven't noticed any issues so far, but I am pretty minimalistic. Tried CM7 nightly 40 and Virtuous and they both performed great.
