Im getting my Xoom tablet next week and I cant get any type of free wifi tethering to work with this stock 2.2.2 rom from Sprint. My only option now is root this phone and load a custom ROM.
You guys are the experts.. which Rom or load is going to work best for me. I really only do the following:
- Touchdown (email/exchange)
- gmail
- GPS maps (I like the sprint one actually)
- tether USB rightnow with PDAnet
- pictures to facebook
- facebook
- read the news/web stuff
Thanks fellas!

Lots of good ROMs out there. The first post on each one tells you the features and install instructions.
Here is the link back to the videos thread:

I am pretty sure that you would enjoy the epic experience ROM. It really is awesome.

I've used both ROMs and they're awesome, stable, and fast. Beyond a few differences, though, nothing really different sticks out to me except that Fresh doesn't use the Sense launcher.
You are not going to get flamed because you are not asking which one is better, you are going to get flamed for posting this in development, and it is your first post? You indeed are asking a question so this belongs in the forum called Q&A, it has nothing to do with development. Mods, please move.
Sprint Lovers
For the most part both are quick and work fairly seamlessly. I prefer Sprint Lovers personally but that's me. I think as a whole it works smoother, but that's an aesthetic thing. Both give you what you want out of a custom rom, wifi tethering and all that. Fresh has issues with clockworkmod recovery though, need AmonRA in order to use properly. Personally this irritates me but I don't really see it as a problem. The one nice thing I found in Fresh that came with it automatically was the file manager it provides however all you need is ASTRO with Sprint Lovers and you're good to go. Fresh is more customizable for the average user I suppose but if you are comfortable with adb and SDK then you should be able to customize on your own anyway (look into themeing and how it's done properly before you attempt to do anything and by all means don't mess with .9 files unless you have an understanding of how they work) Other than these issues I didn't find any major differences but have my preference as you can tell. Try some others out too though, some people like Cyanogen's stuff. Good luck.

Is it possible for one of the talented Rom devs to coorporate the old buddies now into touchwiz 4.0. the old one was an scrollable widget and the new is just a linked picture. Below is a picture of how the old buddies now looked. Much better with status up date. It had the works.
I can PM a picture of the old one if needed because I am a newbie and not allowed to post pictures yet.
Thanks for developing this
There is a thread about this in general with an apk attached. I have not tested it myself, but it's there if you want to try it.

Thanks but I have tried that already. When you Install, it doesn't change. Thats why I am requesting this in the Development section. The old buddies now was much better.
You don't make requests in the development section. This is a section for stuff that has been developed not requests. Just letting u know.

I'm new to xda-dev, myself. I also had some questions/comments re: Albinoman's JBbeta3 ROM, and thought this _was_ the right place to discuss such. Since I know the dev forum is the wrong place (even though it happens there), and now I'm told this is the wrong place...could someone please point me to where the right place is?
Thanks,

For questions, I'd say Q&A

Okay, thanks. (A quick glance through the thread titles on this "General" forum reveals plenty of questions, too, so maybe I'm not the only one who's unsure...)
The proper place to ask questions, would be in Albinomans thread. If you didnt want to post there, Q/A would be acceptable. However general is a better place to start a new thread than developement section

Known issue for all JB ROMs on the Inc, but not listed in the OP. Try to cross reference CM10's OP in the mean time.

Flash ROMs without rooting? Cmon man read the damn forums before you make a new thread. Jeez. I thought new users were required to watch the I'm a noob at XDA Developers video.

LOL, okay for one don't get pissy around here, especially to someone that has far more experience with the site than you do.. That's very frowned upon at xda. Yes you are a noob, and in the video it said do not click the new thread button unless what you are asking cannot be found in a thread that already exists, and if the thread doesn't directly answer your question, don't make a new thread. Ask the damn question in a thread that already exists or pm a member that looks like they know what they are doing. But do NOT make a new thread unless it is absolutely necessary. You have no idea how many threads like this are being made that do not need to be made. We are getting sick of them. All it takes is a few minutes of looking around. Hell whenever you named this thread when you first created it the search system showed you similar threads that have already been made.
Use the search system.
Look around.
Don't click the new thread button unless you are 100% sure that there are no threads that answer your question.
EDIT : Also, DO NOT make stupid threads, like how do I use XXX's toolkit or something like that. The xda community will not spoon feed noobs. You guys have to learn like we did. Trial and error. Trust me. Once you learn how to use things without having to ask questions you will feel better.

The last post in the Thread is from a Mod and says that the OP is no longer on xda. Sounds like they may have moved to another sight.
Glad you have it 6.. I must've been replying the same time zain was.
Please do not link to work off-site of XDA from members no longer here.
Google the work and you will find it
Thanks
