I don't know if this was answered anywhere else. I looked but found nothing. What I want to know is what is the epic called like the evo is supersonic, the evo shift is speedy. Please if it was answered send me the link. Thanks.
While those other phones had an additional name, AFAIK, the the Samsung Galaxy S model SPH-D700 has alway been the Epic 4G
The base name was The Samsung Galaxcy S, with the Epic as the model branding
Thank you for the fast response. I'm new to the epic. Can you suggest any roms to me. I'm running the acs frozen right now.

You currently are on one of the best. I always seem to go back to ACS it was my first ROM. Try them all or at least a bunch. Your mileage will vary depends on what is important to you. I have tried Bonsi, Mid night and a few others but keep going back to ACS.
Lol it's not mine it's the wifey's. Is there any mods I can do to change themes on it. Like morphs. Is more what I mean.
There are a bunch of themes and add-ons. If you're on SRF 1.2, make sure it has the right framework. You can always ask the OP if they updated it. There's probably 1 for each color working. The styles will be different unless based on the same theme, ie Emerald Envy is like a green Honeycomb. You'll see. There are also fun add-ons to flash and add like impaled market and mms.
Thank you for the help. So since this thread is done how do I lock it up?

It's code name was Victory.
Could you please refrain to making your op title "noob question" because it does not provide any info on your question!

I just rooted my phone, but I lack the knowledge of what type of ROM should I install on my EVO.
I'm a simple user, use some games, not complicated ones, use Facebook, like to use as a router, use PDA net, started to use open home, just for the look of it.
msn also used, a lot of text messaging, some you tube videos.
But I personally DISLIKE unwanted stuff like the sprint add ons, and would really want to eliminate those things.
I like to custom my phone with nice skins and usable tweaks.
could anyone give their opinion on which ROM would you recommend?
cyanogen, but first you should have read forum rules, as i think this was an appropriate question that could have been asked in the Q&A section
P.S- prepare for flamers lol
true my bad, its the part where I have this forum page as a fav and I did not change the forum and just posted this here, since I'm working on the phone right now, but a mod member could relocate the post if he wishes, and flamers dont bother me.
thanks for the info.
OMFG! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN BY POSTING THIS HERE!? FLAME ON! GAWD WHY DON'T PEOPLE READ!?!?!?!!?
But seriously...CM6 is probably correct. No sense, no Sprint Bloat, etc. In the themes/apps section there are quite a few themes out for it. I'd probably start there.
Jajajaja
me jodi yo ahora...
true about the post in the wrong place....
and thanks looking foward to it, but trying to download unrevoked for evo and problem with web page wich sucks...

but doesn't CM6 lack 4G support?
Still not rooted the phone, im in 2.1 update 1
and I need the unrevoked file, could anyone upload it, since the webpage shows some type of error?
Regarding the 4G theres no 4G here in Puerto Rico yet... wich sucks...
I dont use the HDMI and I really dont need the Radio.
so Ill try this rom as soon as I finish rooting.
Thanks for the info provided.

Yep. It does. There are 'non sense' versions of 'sense' based ROMs that DO have 4g, but for most people (I live close to Philly, so I'm one of the lucky ones) 4g doesn't really exist yet.

The winning combo for me is Fresh 3.2.0.0 + KingxKernel bfs6 + manup revolution.
I tried CM6 for a couple days and I loathed it.

Wow you have just confused me more.
I have read something about Fresh, im ok up to there, but the rest I have no Idea,
what u do a mix of 3 roms or I have no Idea on how to even explain...
Fresh is the rom. Kings kernel is exactly that a kernel. And man up is a theme. Stick with fresh, ava, or ojm until you learn a little more. They are solid roms that stick close to stock.

thanks for the explanation there.
Sorry, didn't mean to confuse you.
I really like Fresh. I have tried quite a few ROMs and Fresh is my favorite. Evio and BakedSnack are also good ones.
Well as the thread title states. How do these two roms compare to one another? Are they basically the same rom? I plan on flashing one of the two and I'd like to know the differences, pros vs. cons. Any input would be great!
Yes I have read each of their respective forums.
Well ACE's ROM is not on Xda, so I'm not sure many people know about it. I saw an article about it on Android Central yesterday.

Yup me too. Too bad it doesn't have CIQ removal yet as I like to be more on the bleeding edge.
He does have a lot of artistic talent though. I downloaded like 15 of his wallpapers!
I hope he makes some CM7 themes once CM7 gets fully ported to the Epic
Exactly I'm not gonna flash a rom that doesn't have.ciq removed. Screen that. I would like to try ace rom but the developer said he will be making an update with ciq removes

So were are all the new EC05 roms with one flash. currently we have to use odin and flash..... this sucks....
So if people are gonna build EC05 custom roms or anyother for that matter then please keep this in mind
1. no ext 4 with journaling disabled.
2. keep carrier iq as we can not be sure what is broken by removing it. and sprint has it their for a reason...
3. keep all sprint programs and just add the ones you want to to the custom rom.
4. make touch wiz the standard interface (it really is awsome)
5. keep it as stock as possible.

Um, this is posted on the wrong forum first off. secondly, Wouldnt that just be a stock EC05 rom rooted?
Seriously? This again, so you want a bone stock 'custom rom' as you would call it....lol.....the madness around here lately.....
Just flash the stock rom and call it good. No need to make a thread requesting a stock rom.
Yea, I agree. I love having Sprint spy on me, and rfs is soo much better, and who DOESNT like Sprint bloatware? Chefs, cook that up immediately! Im sure everybody here agrees with us too! Chefs..Snap snap...Hold the Odin

dude how can it be in the wrong forum when i am talking about development of roms? This thread is "Arrow Epic 4G Android Development". SO if i am talking about development it belongs here. Its not that hard to understand.
This is like, what, the third account this guy has made saying the SAME thing? In the SAME wrong forum? With the SAME spelling mistakes? Lol.

RFS is a poor choice compared to EXT4. Why anyone would want a ROM that uses it is beyond me, but it may be a good idea to have the ROMs as RFS/EXT4 capable when possible, but where not, EXT4 is by far the better option
2. keep carrier iq as we can not be sure what is broken by removing it. and sprint has it their for a reason...

I doubt much support will be gained for leaving in CIQ. Most ROMs are built to remove as much bloat as possible, and CIQ certainly fall into that category.
3. keep all sprint programs and just add the ones you want to to the custom rom.

Counterproductive. In most cases, ROMs are made to be as slim as possible. the better way is to have a single update.zip file that installs the stock and/or extra apps
4. make touch wiz the standard interface (it really is awsome)

5. keep it as stock as possible.

Then what is the point? Most ROMs are trying to improve on stock as much as possible. any one wanted a "close to stock' ROM, can just root and install a modded kernel, and be at that point already. ROMs mostly aim to branch out as far as possible from stock, going above and beyond the stock experience.

First, this section is for development, not just talking about development. So if you start a thread here, people expect you to be developing something.
Second, the ROM you are requesting has already been developed and published by Sprint/Samsung.
Ip ban this guy already or something..

Nicely answered!
Ha... this thread just made my day.. the ego.. the posted responses are correct.. odin flash ec05, use clockwork 2.5.5 to keep your rfs and gain root.. and your rom will be as u requested. No need to mandate that our devs waste their time making u a rom when they should be worrying about the rest of us who want something that's actually better than stock
In before the lock boo ya!
Edit: forgot to mention that they do this for free, so mandating anything is extra douchey

Awesome great work, I cant believe Bu bby was prioritized over him in donating and bounty.
I wonder if hes working solo or is part of a team. It could be useful to have more people to offset the driver
work that it looks would need to be done.
Seriously i have seen bubbys name mentioned twice already. Lets give that name a rest. There is no comparison nor should their be. I know peoples intentions are good and are making a point. No point reliving that name. Nor the lack of any "real" work he "produced". Please no reply to his is necessary. Lets move on and back on point in 3.2.1.....

There was a point being made because at that time xboarders name was actually thrown out as someone to get a bounty going for at the same time as bubby and somehow despite xboarders track record and bubby's lack of a track record xboarder ended up in the backburner for a bounty thread.
It isnt bad to have the occasional reminder to prevent history being repeated.

I just posted the following on the Sprint and Verizon sections because not all of us go exploring the other SG3 sections since they split us all up so i just wanted to spread something I found and hopefully will be useful to some of you.
First off let me begin by saying hey this is my first group of threads! I'm not a developer by any means but I am a big enthusiast when it comes to customization of our phones. So here's something new I learned that noone has seemed to release yet so I thought "what's the worst that can happen?" Unfortunately we can use his WICKED [V2] rom as it is only for the T-Mobile version but I can confirm that his flashable red and blue themes in his post are 100% working.
Instructions
Place on root of sd card
Reboot recovery
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Flash
Reboot
ENJOY.
MOD EDIT: links removed an thread will be closed. Next time ask permission before posting someone else's work
I am no way the owner this completely belongs to evil1art. The theme is for the average person with the subtle want for red or blue on their status bar and toggles. Please thank him. I am a noob when it comes to posts but I have been loving XDA and rooting all my androids since froyo. If you like it thank him.
those themes are for that sprint and verizon rom. have you tested them with our device? do you know why sprint SGS3 has a different section than us?
From what i understand the radios and certain software to use the various networks are what make them significantly different. Also Verizon locks their bootloader but there is away around that now. It is confirmed to work on the international version sprint verizon and t-mobile unfortunately i do not have an AT&T SG3 to test it on.
If I am wrong please let me know I'm here to learn as well as help some people out.
Also that theme came from a t-mobile rom that they do not support sprint or verizon

I never meant in infringe on your reputation sir or your respect if you would like I will remove all the posts. I have tested this theme on all variations on the SG3 I do apologize. I never meant to have your work passed off as someone else. I meant absolutely no disrespect and I humbly ask for your forgiveness, You are right I should of asked you I was excited that it worked for all these phones I just wanted to get the word out. So with your permission I would like to keep them up but I would be more than willing to take it down. Sorry for the miss understanding, I am new on here and am trying to abide by the rules if I was in the wrong I will immediately remove them. I have the utmost respect for what you do.
