What happened to the link Avatar had posted up? All i see now is the return to stock zips. And does anyone know of any roms or themes with the ICS animations already in them? Its a shame this is the sweetest Gs2 out of them all, yet we have the least of the goodies out of any phone on XDA. Im sick of looking for zips i once had or finally ready to try and now gone. WTF!!!

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?
Ok so here is my first post/thread, I've been following XDA for the longest time and I never actually registered because all of my questions had been answered or I could just read the threads and countless posts to get my answer (I know about the flamers) lol. Anyways, I recently rooted my evo replacement WOOP WOOP and I've tried pretty much all the roms with the exception of the kings roms, I am currently rocking SACS v9 and this rom seems to be the one that suits me the most, I have the golden monkey 1.1 kernel and everything is running as it should EXCEPT that I cannot seem to be able to unlock the wifi N capabilities that the evo has, after trying out Synergy RLS1 with the N baked in I cannot go back to wireless g or b.
Is there someone who can direct me in the right direction to achive wireless N on this amazing ROM also, I remember I had SACS v5 and the boot animation was an android circle ring similar to the CM android boot animation that was pretty sweet, if I can get those two things on my phone I could die shortly after flashing them lol please someone help a brother out.
also: what themese would work on this rom? I like the plurstaralpha theme by Burst but it doesn't seem to like my phone for some reason.
anyone? 10 characters
Hi there!
I have a few questions pertaining to this phone, First off I've flashed everything that's been released in the last month. No bricks.. WHY?? I want to fit in with everyone else (kidding) But seriously, what are some cool applications and/or flashable addons for this phone.. Currently running FB27 stock tar rooted with FB21 rogue kernel and cwm.
I like to use those sexy girls asian live wallpapers
I like the sexy screen cleaner girl... Just wish it wasnt so glitchy
Back from my "scotsman vacation"
Unfortunately I don't like Asians... But I do have something similar to those already!
Try flashing some of the themes in the themes section! They did a great job on some of them. Also maybe some of the mods for some of the roms

Tried flahing ICS4ICS, but it threw an error about "%s has violated..." and that was it, and it said I was in digital roaming mode
You could always flash a rom from an international SGS2 and that'll give you a pretty blue light =)
OYA? Link plz.
looking for a new ics style rom. main focus is i really want it to be snappy but save the battery well on my evo 4g. i used to run CM, then decks, then decks reloaded, then tried strike and it wasnt working well, now running sonicFlame and its not to bad. just wondering what else is out there that im overlooking? should i switch to the newest CM? also what is now the best kernel? im using a tiamat sbc i think.
another question i had is there anywhere to get a nice pack of apps and utilites like decks reloaded comes with or would my best bet to be to back them up with TB and load them on the new rom i like?
also i really love having a unified theme. i used crystal full system theme but i am now looking for one that matches the ics blue. so if there is a full system theme anyone knows of or any icon packs that would go with an ics blue rom please post! is there any tuts or links someone has that i can use to try and start making my own theme or how to make icons and use them?
and does anyone know why my lock screen on SonicFlame rotates even when i have rotate off and the screen locked portrait? just bugging me, along with my button lights only working for a bit when i flash a rom then never coming back. happened the last couple roms i used. any ideas?
sorry for so many questions and thanks in advance for the help!!
Well I will give you my thought on the button lights. I have noticed that if you use auto insurance brightness they don't work very well. Also when you go below a certain brightness they go off.
For ics kernel the Mason series is your best bet. I have not flashed many ics roms so not much help there. The few I tried were miui and evervolv.
A little hint. If you like customization I would say try out an miui rom. Then put on an ics style launcher. I hate the miui one myself too much like ios. Now you just find the launcher theme you like. You have a killer looking ics with the bonuses that you get with miui. You can filter calls with white lists, black lists, and calls not in phone book. Also set times to block calls. Built in backup app status bar toggles, and other miui only features.
Jlmancuso.

cool thanks i have never looked into those before ill have to find one!
There are older ICS builds on goo.im
under miui and supersonic. The current jb release on roms.miui.us is laggy on lockscreen but not too bad elsewhere.
If you want pm me any questions you might have. I have tried just about every ROM on the site.
Jlmancuso

Why not just go back to reloaded? You may have given up on that one to soon..
Yeah. my button lights crapped out the first time I flashed an ICS ROM and never went back to working the same, no matter what I run now.
If you want the apps you have now, just back them up with TB or My Backup Pro.
Hey guys! After the noob realization that I had an Epic 4G and not the Epic 4G Touch as someone told me, I have finally got root and a custom recovery. However, my question is this, I have flashed PacMan Rom v18.0.0 Build-2 and the gapps, except the inverted gapps cause of the link being down.... However, my install looks NOTHING like the pictures shown. I've only flashed a couple of different roms and they were on the EVO, usually when flashing on the EVO the rom looked like the pictures... Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am a noob and I'm sorry!
What parts are different? Usually a first boot, bone stock, will look different. I assume the screenshots are showing off options, customizations, and other features. ROMs like pacman are made to be very customizable, blending aosp with tons of options. Do some poking around in your settings and have fun making it personalized. That's the beauty!
