[Q] What is the best fully functional 2.2 ROM

I am fairly new to android but have enjoyed this community's help with my phone mods. I am now looking for a good 2.2 ROM which is as close to stock as possible. Any thoughts would be helpful as there are so many versions and different threads to dig through. Thanks!

You should try Sky Raider. I've been using it since version 1.0 and love it.

Is the Sky Raider rom faster than the current CM6 builds?

Not faster, but so much more stable. I personally prefer CM6, but until a .32 kernel is incorporated and the kinks are ironed out, Skyraider is the ROM for me.

Guess I'll give it a shot. I've been having random reboots with CM6

+1 I'm using the 8/1 leak until CM6 incorporates the .32 kernel.

Doesn't SkyRaider vanilla still incorporate some Sense UI stuff? I've wanted to give SkyRaider a go but I'd rather have full-on vanilla.

is there something for a xPERIA X10I ??

@trombone dixie sr vanilla incorporates all vanilla looks and actual sense programs. i should know, because i designed a lot of the themeing, although it was finoshed very nicely by ihtfp

dont have much to compare it to yet, but...
I'm a big fan of the work Adrynalyne has been putting out. I've been using his Second Wave which is a modified tweak of the 8/1 leak. He also has a mixed ROM using EVO framework mixed with DInc stuff to make it work. Haven't heard anything bad really about SR or Jager though. In the end, best to play with them til you fond what you're looking for. I'm sure soon enough the real 2.2 DInc release will come and it'll start all over again.

Im running Adrynalynes EVO port ...or FrankenROM as we are calling it. I have yet to have an issue with it. I have tried CM, Jager, YASR ... but have really liked the FrankenROM.

does his franken rom b2 have the stock white notifications bar, or the sense black one? because i like desensitized, but i'd also like to keep the black notifications bar. also, can i run the .zip's to remove the 911 notifications icon and add the round battery mod? if so, then i'll definitely give it a try.

adrynalyne's Frankenrom is the best I used. Now if only this forum wasnt full of people who flame decent developers, Adrynalyne might post his roms here.

[Q] Best slide [ROM].

Hey everyone. My wife decided her mytouch slide is a little too laggy for her. I have rooted and flashed HTC phones and my vibrant with great success. I am going to do her phone this weekend but I need some help please. I do NOT follow this forum at all so I have no idea what [ROM]s are stable and functioning for everyone else. If I could please get some input from you guys that have been here and have tested these out it would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance

Good luck!

The dopio oc kernels are also very stable esp at 768 and 806. Just use set cpu app to maximize battery life.
The cm nightlies are also usually very stable.
The slide reloaded rom is also a sweet themed version of cr's full ota rom.

Yeah, for my uses, Cyan with the dopio kernel is the way to go 100%. But you never know, once you get the ENG flashed, let your wife play with all the ROMs she can handle until she finds one she likes. ROM Manager makes it ridiculously easy.

What about the galaxy slide rom by infinitybiff? Anyone tried that? I don't use touch wiz on my vibrant but the wife might like it. Still leaning towards cyan. Just need something fast and stable for her. I'm gonna have to theme it for her myself cause there is no one doing that.

Yes, just make sure you back up first, in case you want to switch back.

cyanogenmod or crmod

I just flashed Galaxy Slide Beta the other day after using CR for the longest time. its the first ROM that i have flashed (and there have been many) that i didn't immediately flash straight back to CR. i am having a minor trouble with the color scheme in the notification pull down and i haven't tried all the features yet... (i.e. bluetooth, tethering, and maybe one or two more) but all in all i love it!

The dopio kernel is integrated into cyanogenmod 6.1+, no need to flash it over again, but other roms you will have to flash it.

Cyanogenmod is froyo, and based off of the AOSP source, so it has a more vanilla flavor to it. CR_Mod is just the rooted stock OTA ROM with a wifi tether, and a2ext built in. CR_Mod is also eclair, it just all depends on what you like better, the latest vanilla customizable stuff, or the more stock HTC sense feel, with all of the t-mobile stuff.

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

Get in the zone
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.

Thanks
Thank you so much for the rom suggestions.

myns gets incredible respect and is considered the highest quality sense rom. fresh is the best slightly modded rom (and i mean very slightly). cyanogenmod is anything but stock (non-sense), but is held at the top of the respect chain for building thier rom from the ground up. no 4g though. miui is also another great non-sense rom.
i personally like ava's roms. he will be releasing another one extremely soon. he makes minor changes to increase speed, make smoother, looks much much cooler. a bunch of minor changes (he is on his 10th version) makes for a good rom. ava froyo v10 should be here soon.

IM running SPRINT LOVERS ROM .... It seems not too many people talk about this rom and I wonder why...

i am using that, and its working great. seems to also contain improved battery life.
read the specs on the custom roms, some have features that may be missing (for example, 4G or full camera support)
and also remember to do the backups!!

Best rom for evo

I know it is a subjective question, but I am wondering what is the best rom going for the evo right now? I will soon be moving up to the evo from the hero and I am trying to go ahead and do some research.
Also is there anything else I should do like upgrade the radio, any good kernels?
I'm using aospmod right now for my hero and love the speed and performance. Don't have to have sense at all.
Would also like something that has some good themes available.
Thanks in advance for all your suggestions and help!

Use CM6.1.1 with the updated radio/pri/nv/wimax
When you get your phone update the PRL in the settings, root it, make a nandroid backup (with Amon_RA) and save it to your computer. This is very important. While playing around with your phone you may break your 4G. The only way to fix it is to have your 4G data backed up on your computer. Only Amon_RA recovery does this, clockwork does not back up the Wimax stuff. If you ever mess up your 4G just restore the safety nandroid on your computer.
Once that is done flash the radio/wimax/pri/nv combo in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and then install CM6.1.1 and just use the stock kernel built into to CM6. CM6 can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735596.
