Most of you guys probably only want AOSP, but for those of you with extra time on your hands and with nothing else to do I present to you my first ROM, built from Shipped ROM.
The ROM is completely zipaligned, deodexed, and most Verizon Bloatware apk.s are removed. If there are any remaining, please let me know in the comments.
This should be one of the fastest Stock ROMs available. I know other people may have created the same kind of ROM, but please, don't flame on me.
Of course, this ROM still runs Android 2.2.1, however I hope to update that in future test version, as well as AOSP.
I also must warn you, the file size is a gigantic 240MB. If all goes well with this test ROM, AOSP will be next

its not like gb was a leak that has random bugs and froyo is a better option

Anyone out there interested in bringing Myns 2.3 over to the inc2??? i spoke with MYN and he said if i knew any inc2 dev that would be interesting in porting it he would be all for it. I freakin loved his rom on my original Inc but unfortunately i have no dev skills or experience Hopefully someone out there will want to tackle this project. i think it would be a great rom for us. PM me if anyone is interested. thx
I'd like to see it as well but I also have no experience.

Cool. Thanks for the link. I'll send him a pm and start on porting this over this week. I think the hardware hasn't changed a lot, so it shouldn't be too intense (I hope anyways...lol). Give me a few days and I'll post a progress update (or start a new thread if I get something worthwhile sooner...).

Still working on it... twopointtwo is a Froyo based rom, so I'm switching to the Evo 3D twopointthree and to see what I can get (Rather stick with the GB based ports, instead of rolling back...). The devices have some similarities, so I should be able to get a decent port (I hope). I've been fairly busy lately, so it probably won't be anything for the next couple weeks...

The Incredible version (twopointtwo) was Froyo, according to the information in the OP. The Evo 3d version is GB, 2.3.4, and the device specs are similar to ours, so it should work. I've got the port files swapped and will be testing today to see if it boots. With any luck, could have a working port by the end of the week at this rate...
I haven't tried the port file, so don't get your hopes up yet guys! I'll post another update later today and let you all know how the tests are going...

NP... First test just boots back into recovery, so I've got some more porting to do tonight to get it booting... Hoping to have a bootable test by tomorrow or Friday...
EDIT: Still just boots back to recovery. I need to try a few other kernels and see what I can get to boot this...
I know there is a "ROM" forum but that seems to be more about bugs/compatibility/how to. I thought i would start this to see what ur favorite rom is and any special tweaks you find make it better for our 7inch bundle of awesome.

I manually replaced the stock ring with the modded one not as easy to do but I haven't gotten down making flashable zips yet.

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but why would you want to install an a500 ROM on an a100 device? I've seen quite a few threads on this in a few forums. Simply wondering.

I honestly can't wait till someone tries to flash a ROM from the a500 and use the kernel (boot.img) for the a100 and find their device bricked. Just wait for ROMS to be made specifically for the a100. Right now the dev forum here is a joke. And not because of the lack of ROMS but because out of the 3 custom ROM's we have 2 of them are just a500 ROM's with a replaced boot img and build prop it seems, and no credit was given to the original devs who actually did the work in the a500 forums

I agree with what you say about giving credit. If they use something that was developed by others they need to not only ask for permission, but also state where their "source" has come from in the OP. They should give their "Mod" a version and they should provide MD5's for the file.
This said the "Rom's" you speak of while technically not being "developed", still fall under the above rules. Whether they belong in the Development Section or the General Section I don't really know. They DO however provide a benefit in that they save the end user from taking additional steps and doing the various flashes on their own. Kind of like a one-click.
True developed ROM's will eventually come but I can't agree with your first sentence. I would NEVER wish someone to brick their Tablet.

How come it is such a big deal to you that people are using a500 roms? I really do not know why this makes you so upset and to say you can't wait for someone to brick their device is not classy at all. I do not see anyway that could brick our device anyway. Asking people who love to tinker to be patient is very unlikely to happen. With that said, the first thing I noticed when I saw the aforementioned roms posted was there was no link to the source or credit given.

With that argument anything could happen when you flash A100 roms too. Zeronull has one already in the development section if you haven't seen that.
So wait... You can flash A500 ROMs to the A100 with a boot.img from an A100 ROM? Or am I just not getting this

Well! I'm gonna try flashing AOKP Build 30 for the A500 with boot.img from ZN Custom Firmware for the A100!
I think the only reason why we aren't bricking our tab when flashing a a500 rom with a a100 boot.img is because they share near identical cpu an gpu chipsets.

Well first off welcome to the Android Community. You've definetely started in the right place with XDA. Rooting an android phone and getting a custom ROM is easier than ever now. I would suggest first scrolling to the top of this forum and doing a lot of research and self education. There are several things you need to have a basic understanding of before flashing roms. Look at the most wanted topics thread, The official Jelly Bean General Discussion thread, Terminology for the newbies. Check out this post as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873873
In the end consider that Jelly Bean is still in the developmental stages and there can be bugs and workarounds to deal with. If you are new to Android, going with a solid custom ICS rom may be best for you so as not to spoil your Android experience.
Finally once you have made your decision head over to the Android rom development section ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1332 ) and look through the roms and choose the best one for your needs. Read the instructions and then read them again. Install exactly according to the directions in the thread from the rom you choose and enjoy ! Hope this helps a little at least. Happy Flashing ! :highfive:
The best thing to do is read, read, read. Knowledge is the best way to prevent accidents. The process for loading custom ROMs on this phone is simple but you'd be surprised how many "educated" people screw it up. Good luck.

I'll tell you a great ics rom which is called paranoid android. There is one by starskyrob in the development section. As far as JB in my opinion, the most stable is Paranoid android JB. I've flashed their latest rom and have had no sleeps of death or random reboots. This is going over 24 hours now and I did get 21 hours of battery for my first battery cycle. If you want more info send me a pm and ill link you some links. But yes read and watch a lot of youtube videos together ideas of what roms can do.

My 2 cents is that JB ROMs are not yet ready to act as daily drivers on the T989 for most of us.
The RRs and SODs continue as well as several other quirks.
I've been on and off the leading JB ROMs since mid-August and in most all cases I lost more features than I gained.
Thank God for the developers and early adopters who brave the bleeding edge for us all.
But I will wait in the safety of AOKP MS6 until I see something from Whitehawakx that's labeled "milestone" before I flash again.

All the ones I have tried so far I've had issues with, I would suggest something more stable like an ics for now. The JB roms look nice but they have issues with calls, random lockups and such.
I am wondering how the policy works with porting an at&t ROM to T-Mobile as I am currently running this ROM which is a combo of AOpk and Pa but its by far the smoothest rom I have flashed and much more options than PA plus the video volume is loud as hell so since I am new to the xda community I want to know what are the rules of porting this bad a$$ ROM so that all T-Mobile users can use this as a dd do I need permission from thebz1 or I could just post it for you guys I have it all ready but don't want to anything against the policy please fill me in guys
BTW the link to the ROM is below

What did the original dev say? That is probably the most important thing.
is it not flashable to our phone? I've used some at&t roms on my t999 with no issues that weren't already expected. (WiFi calling and other T-Mobile things)

thebz1 was working on tmo Pa THREAD a couple month ago until he decided that he would only take care of at&t only that is why OG came in and started getting PA again but after flashing PA and PK i could tell you that PK is much more stable than PA, its much much smoother, the video volume is really loud, you ger rom control and paranoid android settings together in one so much more customization. i guess since it is an open source i feel that i should port it over , i was respectful by asking him so he doesn't own PK anyhow im going to be working on this over the weekend

Obviously both of you haven't tried the AT&T ROM on a T999 because it won't even flash in recovery, much less boot up. I know this because I've tried it in multiple stages of development. He was asking about porting another persons work, and XDA's policy. Yes, most AT&T ROMS work on t-mo too (as long as it doesn't contain AT&T modem), but lets not be redundant & state what most people in this forum already know. Thanks for the port bro. It's running like butter!

I'm sorry, maybe I've missed something...If I have, forgive me,
But, the original Dev did not give you permission to port his work over. Have you considered that he may have a reason for it? Perhaps he plans to support multiple devices with it, like many other devs do with their Roms.
That is just a guess, but if something like that were the case, depending on how popular the dev is, and how P.O.'d he gets, you could be making a lot of enemies on here....
Something like this, if you want it that bad, go ahead and port it. But do it for yourself, do not release it.
If you were planning on releasing it regardless of his answer, then you should never have asked.
Sorry man, just trying to help.....
