I have been looking around, and I can not seem to find a ROM I think I will like.
I came from HTC EVO 4G running Deck's ROM. Seemed very basic and vanilla Android.
Is there any ROMs like this yet for the Epic Touch? Driving me nuts because I really enjoyed that ROM (that is also the ONLY ROM I have ever used.)
Thanks!
Don't think there any any AOSP ROMS right now. There may be some works in progress. You can run launcher pro or another launcher to get the vanilla look, though! Everything will run the same if not smoother.

I had a G1 but the screen brightness crapped out. the only other alternative at the time was the slide, I am growing accustomed to the sense UI and even kind of like it, no lag, nothing, some small things are a pain but overall pretty okay.....
My question is this, I am rooted and have tried every rom out there but does anyone know a good rom even with sense UI, where EVERYTHING works AND has working apps2sd.
all I need is a perfectly working rom, with apps2sd, froyo isnt even really that important.
any thoughts or ideas????
I have been running the SlimeMeRoot5r1 from Eugene and it's been pretty solid. It only has some of the SenseUI bits, but I really like it, and it has a2sd. Follow the link in my sig to the thread for his rom.
That would be my recommendation as well. That's by far the most stable rom out at the moment.
Just chiming in on eugene being a god with slidemeroot5r1

Rooted several weeks ago and running CM6 and loving it, but I need a good ROM with working Bluetooth. Don't realy care if I have to go back to 2.1, your answers and suggestions are welcomed.
If you like the stock espresso, just go with CR's OTA rom, it's stock with root as far as i know.
For me the best rom ever is SlideMr4. It doesnt have the sense launcher thus no sense running in the background but has everything sense does. I love it all the keys work everything works and has a light weight launcher included called helix which like a water down version of launcherpro. Htcclay has his themed version called RemixMr4 I think or something like that. This wont be as fast as CM6 but its not slow either.
Hey guys,
I've had my evo about 4 months now and i'm jumping on the root train. Got it rooted last night with Unrevoked. Now I wanna do something cool. I've been reading for hours now and i'm more confused than ever. I basically want to have a custom display but dont know what to do/use. A little help would be great. What theme, rom, whatever should I use and how do I do it? Thanks in advance
I would recommend any one of the virus roms. Check them out here in the forums you wont be disappointed
I would post the link for ya but im on tapatalk sorry

virus rom? Sounds wrong. Just the title I hope.
Check on Bnice's port of the MIUI rom (Chinese based) Be ready to read, it's a fast moving thread. I've been on it since v1.08??? and it is getting amazing. Way diffrent then any sense rom and it looks like the theming is getting ready to pop.
First time around, I would download ROM Manager from the market. It has alot of popular roms available to download and flash right in it. After you get a little more familiar, and see what one is like, you can go ahead and branch out. AOSP Roms (Cyanogen, MIUI) are great, but you may feel more comofortable with a stock ROM first.
If you want to play around with your current rom just mess around with Launcherpro. Amazing what a custom dock and icons can do to spice things up.
I second that Virus roms are good , battery life is good and they are smooth. A rooted evo can be customized in anyway you can think of. I change something on mine everyday. Congrats on joining the darkside!

I'll admit I was put off by Virus rom's title, but it's actually quite nice. I haven't run it in about a month, though.
If you don't need 4g, try out cyanogen or MIUI. If you need 4G, there are tons of sense based roms available. I personally like Myn's rom. But I also like Fresh & Frost.
I flash roms like they're going out of style & every new rom or new update brings at least an hour of excitement to my day even if I don't care for the rom. Try 'em all, dude.

Best thing to do is flash flash flash till you find something you like fresh roms are as close to stock as a modded rom can get personally I don't care for asop roms but to each their own. Myn is releasing rls3 tonight I'm on the beta version and this rom is beautiful, ava has a good one and calk too. A far as themes go you can use a pre made like riptides or flash a few options out of several to get what you want the only thing that holds you back is your own imagination so have fun and flash.

I completely agree. I first rooted my Evo with unrevoked3 and soon after started messing around with launchers (adw is beast imo) and themes. Then I quickly got bored and decided to use Rom manager and start flashing roms. But once you do that it is trial and error with the roms till you find the one you like. Keep searching the forum to find one that you think you will like and read the posts so that you are aware of problems that some roms have.

Is there a non-sense rom with working ziimote AND hdmi?
Is the closest to vanilla (ie Nexus S)? I've noticed they seem all based on Cyanogen Mod 7. While I like the builds, and have the best luck with the GingerVillan's, I don't know which is the closest to a stock Vanilla Rom. I feel like every little tweak's been added etc. While I have no problem with that, I'm just trying to find the closest to a stock build atm. Thanks a lot guys, and keep up the hard work!
im also interested in knowing this. im currently on stock and wanna give GB a try
I am running GingerVillain and love it...everything works and runs flawlessly for me, some complain of battery life, but I am running a Mugen so I cant confirm
Running GingerVillain and it appears to be the most stable of them all.
I am also running gingervillian....and its awesome....everything works fine n smooth....n its super fast....if u want to know which one is closest to stock vanilla....I would say gingervillian as it has the stock launcher...on the other hand cm7 use adw launcher...everhything else is pretty same...by far m really happy with gingervillian...

I see a lot of ICS themes and they are awesome man. But I do miss the ole AOSP GB look and feel. I have tried my best to make my own but honestly I don't have the time I wish I did to dedicate to it right now. If anyone feels up to it and wants to make one that would work with the latest ROMs I would be ever grateful.
Pretty much what I would like to see is a Vanilla GB style Theme. But anything AOSPish would be awesome. Thanks in advance to anyone that considers this.
Download latest blazer and instal gb launcher or go flash cm7 from the other site everything but GPS works

Appreciate the suggestions. I'm not ready to sacrifice functionality for true AOSP yet on this phone. I have the aosp launcher running on Calks and have modded most of the apks to have the aosp icons. What I'm looking for is like a aosp dialer and true aosp mms.apks and such. Once CM9 is released I will go towards true aosp roms. But not until. I did the whole aosp flashfest on my GS1 and not ready to do that yet. Plus the CM7 build you speak of wiped my SD card twice soso it still has some little bugs.
thought
have you tried the "clean" overlay from sprint ID?
Try this rom out. Looks like its picking up with some.

Yeah I was hoping that ROM would get updated and it did. I was so Happy to see it. Running it right now with a few personal Mods and loving it. Also I have never messed with sprint ID so not sure what that is. I will have to look into it.
