What ROM are you using on HTC Evo 4G? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since us Evo 4G users can root our phones, what ROM are you using? What Rom is better/ more features 4G working etc???
With the new update is anyone using CM7 7.0.3?? What Roms are updated using the GB update?
What are you using?? Just curious and wanting to see the responses on the best of the best?

AOSP all the way.
CM7 latest nightly + Honeybread theme + Supercharger Script + Tiamat kernel 4.07 -75mv

Its definitely personal opinion really.
Most roms support 4G, etc. IIRC, MIUI doesnt support 4G yet but its in the works.
The choice mainly boils down to Sense vs AOSP. Sense 3 is quite appealing, visually (though I only played with it for about 10minutes =p). All in all, each has their pros.
Try out a few and see which You like the most.

Also I see you have the 2.15_003 PRI version.. How in the world did you update.. I've been trying EVERYTHING in the world to update.. I have the file downloaded from the xda link for radios etc... its on my sd card. .flashed via recovery. How can I verify the PRI version in CM7??
ok now back to Roms used.. LOL

Please stop saying it's in the works. It isn't, and won't be until they release the source code or they implement 4G in China. I'm not trying to be nasty, but it's just not happening anytime soon from what we know.
I use MIUI, and it's the best even without 4G.

I use CM7 rom, never look back.

MIUI
I use MIUI just because it's simple and it has a build-in tether, but don't like it because it doesn't support 4G and probably a whole lot of other stuff.

I am using this too. I was using the synergy rls but it became real unstable out of nowhere. I cannot blame the ROM it might have been the v6 script and 3g script. I have never had an issue with MikG. And I just 86'ed the scripts.
Sent from a long time ago in the future.

I'm currently using CM7 RC1, with tiamat 4.07. Love it but some battery drain.
My eye has been out on the new 3.5 sense roms tho.

SalvageMod 1.4 with Tiamat 3.3.7 kernel with v6 supercharger installed.
I love it!

I'm new to rooting and ROMs but I'll just throw out my noob/extremely novice experience over the past 2 weeks.
I've flashed CM7, Synergy, Kinged Shooter, and now I'm using SOS 1.9.
The only one I didn't keep on for at least 24 hours was the Shooter ROM . I had all sorts of lag issues (admittedly it was probably something I did and not the developer). CM7 is nice and I wouldn't hesitate to go back. I LOVED Synergy. Very nice ROM. It's a big ROM with lots of nice add ons and features. SOS is great if you want bare bones stock ROM. It has been incredibly fast, no lag and battery life isn't budging in spite of my increased activity re-installing apps/themes and what not.
I'll probably stick with SOS for a bit since it seems to be running so smoothly. If I go back to one it will most definitely be Synergy. It's been my favorite so far.

I'm using Nocturnal Bliss beta v.FIVE from King, Team Nocturnal, and several others who I can't name off the top of my head with ChopSuey 9.2.6 for the kernel. It's Android 2.3.4 with 3.5 Sense. It runs a lot better than any Sense 3.0 ROMs I've tried.
I don't think 4g works(don't have a lot in my area so not as important)
USB doesn't work(I use WiFi Explorer pro or recovery mount)
Need to partition SD card for more room(Darktremor's a2sd baked in)
Other wise it is a good ROM.

Can anyone verify this? Also where did you hear this from?

Wow!! Thanks for the responses. So many difference of opinions but that's what makes this site great..so the MIUI I keep seeing a debate about 4G....Ive read a lot on it very nice Rom....CM7 is what I use the 7.0.3 release for Evo. I'm using Tiamat kernel. Is there a better kernel for CM7? I thought of flashing the sbc kernel by Tiamat...I'm going to check out other roms as well.....this is fantastic. what is so different about MIUI?? It looks like an iPhone set up for android. Is it a small Rom or does it just come down to personal preference?

It really depends on what you want. For sense based roms, I am particularly fond of Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo. It's based on the Evo framework, has an incredible development team, and is able to use many evo and incredible options. Just take a stroll through the development thread and check out how many separate threads are devoted to the rom.
Ziggy's kernels, Lou's kernels, and the incredikernels are some of the more popular and widest used kernels, and for good reason. If you can't find what you're looking for between those three, then you won't find it.
Good luck my friend
Thanks a lot bro.... will check it out ASAP and of course miui that rom is just sick all around...

Of course there's always Cyanogen if you like to go 'vanilla'. Version 7 is out (CM7) which is a Gingerbread build. It's really stable and the fastest rom I've used to date.

I'm using cm7 nightly #2 with the 2.6.37 incredikernel and it has awesome battery life but I believe the highest overclock is 1113MHz, so nothing crazy but you'll still get great performance
the invisiblek kernel is supposed to be nice too but I haven't tried it
Ive used quite a few different ROM's and I used Sense(less) rEVOlution 2.0 for a few months with great success. However, I just switched to Incredibly Re-Engineered v2.3.1 and I must say this is my favorite ROM so far.
I'm loving CyanogenMod 7 with just the included kernel. Fastest ROM I've flashed by far and getting anywhere from 12-30 hours depending on usage. Can't wait for future updates.
If you like Sense, I honestly liked Virtuous and used it for a while. Extremely stable and fairly customizable. Any Sense ROM is likely to drain your battery a little quicker, Rosie is needy.

I just switched to ziggy's beta 12111 and it is a little faster , but battery life hasn;t been fully tested. also Juice defender is a great app to get you through the day.

I have to agree with this quote. I have been running v2.3.1 for a few days now and I have really taken a shine to it. I am running it with incredikernel and it has been 'incredibly' stable and fast. Sorry for the pun, but it was just incredible.
incredikernel is the way to go.
I run SR 3.5 because of stability, clean and fast.
CM7 RC1.5 #5 is stable and fast imo. Gotta give it a go!

I NEVER thought I would say this until a few days ago, especially after the bad experience had with it in February, where I said I'd never go back, but I'm a MIUI junkie now.
It's pretty damn sweet.
I've used MIUI, and Synergy in the past month and I have to say that they're both really good ROMs, but I like Sense too much, so I'm on Synergy RC2.
Eternal Prophecy 6.1 - Daily Driver and give awesome battery life
Kings Nightly Builds - Can't go wrong with King
Honestly I have tried quite a few including some ASOP and I find MikG to be great. I like the fact that it is based off of Sense. I did try ASOP (CM7) and it is fine but I was used to Sense and found ASOP to be kind of buggy and almost always missing something (many times there were fixes and work arounds but would take time and often a reflash to apply).
MikG is defiantly something for you to try. As for the kernel currently the stock kernel is really the recommended one with this ROM but I am sure there will be one developed soon. It is quite fast and includes many features from Sense 3.0. Since the kernel is stock there is no overclocking yet but every main feature is included and it seems quite stable for the modifications that have been done to it.
Right now since so much has changed with the transition from froyo to gingerbread there are quite a few updates that will require a full wipe and this gets annoying but I feel he is getting close to a version that will last a long time.
I guess from what everyone is saying I will have to check out Synergy though. Since I went to MikG I haven't read much about other roms lately and need to check this out!

ROM Recommendations.

I Would Prefer an AOSP ROM,but last time i did that the PRL was outdated and my coverage was such garbage i had to use wifi.if i flash the latest radio and whatnot,THEN an aosp rom,which one?...im not big on sense,i have alot of apps,so apps2sd enabled is preferred,possibly a custom kernel but idk if the evo can even be safely over/underclocked.and also,i had an amazing experience with godmode in synergy,is there any other rom that comes close to that kinda performance...im being picky hell id cook my oen,but no PC.
Shooter Evo 4G
Cm7 latest version with Tiamat 3.3.7 kernal. Can get 24 hours depending on usage.

Whats a good sense rom thats stable?i mean everything ive seen has somethin messed up like 4g,sms errors...multiple bugs.i need something stable,where u dont need to keep flashing back n forth.froyo gingerbread i dont care my main concerns are a smooth performance with optimal battery life,i possibly wanna put in an SBC kernel....

Give the latest SalvageMod AOSP ROM a try you can use Tiamat's SBC kernel if that's what you prefer. Coming from CM7, I like this one more.
Ive tried r3charged,i had multiple sms errors,now im on stock rooted deodexed,i havent had any issues.by stable i mean a RC that has no bugs.i know that may be asking alot,but i cant afford to not have all my features intact.also,i had issuea with multiple different AOSP roms,poor signal and weaker wifi,even with the latest radio combo pack....so im gunna steer clear of CM7.

Another vote for MikG. It has been very stable for me. I am liking the updates as of late (up to 2.52 now). I am have been bouncing between the ChpSuey and Freedom kernels.
I also have MikG running on the wife's Evo but the is running the stock kernel. I have had an occasional boot loop (about once a week) on the custom kernels. She will not tolerate that and does not need the extra features that the custom kernels provide. MikG with the stock kernel has been perfect for her. No reboots at all and she is a pretty heavy user (uses about 10x the data that I do!).
Dude, if you have data, you can download ROMs directly to your phone and flash from the download file on your SD card. That's what I always do

DINC Faster? More Responsive?

I really like my dinc, yet it has been running slow and the battery life drains quickly. I was wondering if there's anything like a mod out there to make it fast such as a CPU overclock for dinc or V6 supercharger script which tweaks up the ram memory. I am running miui 2.1.2 GB
I haven't been around lately so I don't know if there's something new out there that can make dinc fast.

Not trying to do a plug right now or anything but my ROM is very quick and responsive. If you're really attached to MIUI, though, you should look around for incredible kernels compatible with MIUI. I was going to suggest Tiny's Incredikernel but I don't think any of his will work. I don't have time to look into it right now but I will update this comment with more info when I have a minute to search around.

Pardon my laziness but this is incredikernel: http://www.incredikernel.com/
To elaborate, a kernel is an element of the OS that does all of the communication between applications and the hardware components. The more efficient your kernel is, the more battery life and performance you will get out of your device. Incredikernel, specifically, is a kernel that chad/tiny developed for our beloved incredible.

MIUI is still an AOSP ROM, heavily modified though it may be, and the AOSP incredikernel works on it. I used incredikernel on GB MIUI way back when before ICS was released. The Gingertiny kernels are for sense-based ROMs, the Incredikernels are for AOSP-based ROM's. They're excellent kernels, and support cool stuff like overclocking, undervolting, USB fast charging, etc. I highly recommend them. You'd want the latest Gingerbread (AOSP) kernel for MIUI GB.
V6 Supercharger also works on the dinc, I never used that with MIUI though.
I recommend Pons's cm10 nightlies which is now being compiled by Tiny(he has his own thread). Its super quick and extremely functional. I havent had a single FC or crash or anything. My phone is 50% supercharged from v6 supercharger(because last time I modded the services.jar I had to restore from nandroid) and its super smooth. I am very happy with it and my DINC works faster than my roomate's htc onex.
Thank you guys, for all your support. After flashing the latest incredikernel for gb, I feel like it's running smoother than before.
