ive been running cm7 for a bit now, and i really like it, but i just noticed today that the 4g doesnt exist anywhere in the settings...im on cm 7.1 build 1221. is this normal, or did i just mess something up by flashing different apps etc. with it?

Wow. I will try to be gentle. A little research will show you that there are no WiMax drivers for CM7 so there will likely not be 4G until after LTE next year.
i did notice that on the page for the rom, but sometimes they dont change everything on the main page for the rom. i wasnt sure because i searched on google and it seemed like some people had it running on certain devices with cm7, so. i guess i either have to deal with it, or maybe find a rom that has support for it, if at all. theres not a whole lot of 4g around me yet though, but id like to have it when i go into those areas.
Yes, I think it is not working on MIUI either but the rest are fine with 4G. If CM7 converted you to MTD there is a stock ROM and Marcusant's ROM for that file system. Otherwise you will need to Odin back to EC05 and repartition to run a Touchwiz ROM on RFS or EXT4 file systems.

Miui is cm7 based, so if something doesn't work on cm7, it probably won't work on miui. Once 4g works on cm7/ if it does, I may be able to implement it on miui, but no promises.

Yeah cm7 no miui don't have 4g. And might not for a while since devs are not focused on the 4g's now. Once they r done with minor bugs they will focus on 4g.
I love miui even tho it's slightly more busy then cm7

That is called "trolling" and providing no help whatsoever.
If you're looking for a GB ROM you probably wont find one that works 100%. I'm currently using Ultimate Droid 3.0 which is based on the GB sourced and themed. I think some ROMs in the dev section may be GB source based or just themed. Make sure you read the changelog and details to make sure it isn't just themed to look like GB.
I'd say you'll start seeing more releases next month once they iron out some bugs.

This is the one I use, it's stable and it works and outside of no 4g (which no aosp rom has anyway, 2.2 or 2.3) and no hdmi (same problem) it works perfectly. The rare random reboot and the one or two time FC of the keyboard are the only problems I've had with it. When I feel like munching on Gingerbread, this is the rom I flash.

Was about to suggest this. I love cm7, I've only had one random reboot in the two days I've been running it and it was while I was taking a nap one evening hehe. That vibrate on boot woke me up!
Should I root my mytouch slide to CM7 the gingerbread one or CM6 the froyo one. I'm not really updated on whats in the roms but I primarily need a proxy for wifi and a radio. Which one should I get.
Not sure what you mean by you need a radio. Do you mean you want to flash the newest radio firmware or are you looking for a FM radio?
CM7 is still only in nightlies (no "stable" versions have been posted yet). I'm currently using nightly 32 and have run into zero issues with it, with the exception of WiFi (my phone is afflicted with the wifi problem and only properly works with the stock drivers). It seems that most people don't have the wifi issues, though, so you may well be fine. CM7 has a few features that CM6 doesn't, such as wifi calling support.
CM6 (6.1.1) is stable and works well. It also has the same wifi issues for me, but that is fixable in this rom. There's a thread from Hebrewtoyou in the dev section that outlines how to make it work if this is an issue on your phone.
I've never used proxy settings in any of the roms, so I can't tell you anything about that.
yeah i have no idea what he means by radio...if you have root,i recommend you try one rom first and see if it has the features that you want...if it does,stick to that one or try the other one.
If you have to ask which is better for you, I would say use cm6, just wait for cm7 to come out with a release candidate or stable release before trying it, some of the nightlies are pretty buggy

I realize this whole topic is a little bit dated now but just in case you havent yet chosen a rom, or youre in the market for a new one, CM7 RC2 is out now and is pretty decent. The only problems I am having as of now is an issue with Gmail actually sending my emails and not having GPS. Im trying to find answers for both of those problems now. Good luck!
A few weeks ago, I bought a used EVO off ebay and it came in good condition but had the 2.3.3 ota update and was locked out till Revolutionary came along and allowed me to s-off and get SU access. This was all done with the intention of trying a few other custom roms with Sense 2.x, 3.x and AOSP. After having tried, played with used and read about various roms on XDA for the EVO, are there ANY roms that work as well or better then the stock rom????
To me is seems more like what are u willing to deal with or live without ranging from HDMI, GPS, 4G, Camera issues. I've used 2 roms that can even keep a folder I created on my main screen with a few apps in that folder from removing those apps when I reboot or shut down my phone. Is there and AOSP rom that has more then 5 home screens, wereas the sense roms have 7.
I love the newer mail app that will display all your accts on 1 screen, I have yet to find any ROM with sense 3.0 that can or will display all the google calendars that I have access to view. The carosel of the home screens is the best part of the custom ROMS.
While I truely do appreciate the awesome and very hard work that the developers do to make theses roms to add functionality to our EVO's why would you put something our that isn't ready for daily use??
Are their any Custom ROMs that have ALL the pieces working???
I get where you're coming from, because i cant keep a ROM knowing that something isnt working properly, plus i dont like getting all fancy with the ROMs i like em simple and the sense feel.
Check out the Sprint Lovers ROM with a custom karnel, that should suit you.

You know, Wi-Fi isn't necessarily faster than 4g. I'm not trying to be a troll though, just explaining it so you don't have the wrong impression.
Lately I've been getting very odd issues with my Epic 4G. Regardless if it says 3G or 1X as my signal, I'm getting only 1X speeds. At times, my signal strength changes as well, one minute showing full signal, the next it's at 0, then back to normal. The bars also go down if data is actively being used, or I'm on a call. It's gotten worse in the past two weeks.
I'm on a custom ROM, the ACS ICS rom, PRL is up to date and Radio is the one designed for the ROM.
Wow acs ics is SOOOOO OLD update your rom and you should be fine.

I was trying to avoid CM9 since I'd heard CM7 wasn't very stable and had a lot of unneeded mods. I'm looking for something fairly similar to stock, bloat removed, custom bootscreens and voodoo sound, and of course stable.
Am I able to flash CM9 directly from Clockwork Mod? Does it need a newer radio than EI22?

Modems are not connected in anyway to clockwork mod or the rom. Just flash cm9 and download the gapps and flash those as well. Cm7 was unstable before mtd partitioning came around now its super stable. Must be if we have official cm9. You've been gone too long bro keep up with development. Otherwise you'll end up with an EOL phone.

I just remember ACS ICS said it worked best on EI22, but now I see a bunch of newer modems, so I wasn't sure if there is one that works best with CM9.

Lol you shouldn't. But be aware of the fact that during installationg it puts you on mtd partitioning. This will reboot the recovery don't panic just let it do its thing and it will boot. Then go back into recovery and flash the gapps and your good to go .
With odining a new modem make sure you have a good cable and not the stock one. If you end up with it getting stuck or failing replace that cable/try another usb port and flash the modem again and you should be fine.
Also modems aren't dependent of the rom... they work the best according to location... but usually the newest is the best.

There's so much I want to say. But instead, I will say this:
This device is only officially supported through Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread). Any Android versions past that do not have official drivers, so they would have to be built from scratch, for a device that has been EOL for quite a while. Thus, your statement "where everything works the way it should" doesn't make sense, as the device doesn't officially support running ICS or JB.
That being said, all of the ICS/JB ROMs suffer at the very least the same list of things not working - FFC, 4G, HDMI out, Netflix. Videocam can also be an issue on some. So, based on your criteria, you'll be sticking to Sprint-based Gingerbread Sense ROMs .

Not sure why all the sighing and such but thanks for the info. It's hard to tell because it's not always clear what people base a ROM on and it seems like only about half the people posting ROMs list what doesn't work. I was hoping there might be a cynagenmod 9 or 10 for it at some point but it doesn't seem likely.

CM9 and CM10 both exist for the supersonic, but development has been discontinued on them. But that doesn't matter anyway; those features I already mentioned still don't work, so they're disqualified from your consideration.

To me finished means things work. I mean what makes it finished? Just that you are able to install it on the phone? If that were the case there was a finished version more than a year ago. Obviously cyanogen doesn't think it's finished either otherwise they would make it official.

That's not what makes a CM build official or not. But I'm not going to bore you with facts you can find via Google. And yes, everything that can/should work work. But there are updates to drivers that can make things work better, or tweaks here and there that can be done. Besides the fact that Google releases updates/patches that need to be included.
Since I answered your original question, I will now digress.
Lol how many times a week are people going to ask about ics and jb builds with everything working, or official HTC releases without looking for themselves first before realizing they don't and wont ever exist. Yes they are finished, they boot, make calls, get data, the only things that dont work on em are 4g and FCC. Just unroot your phone and forget about it, you aren't cut out for this business son.

You need to assess just how important some features are to you. If you only have an Evo, and somehow don't have an upgrade on your plan, then you have 2 options.
1: Keep it stock, everything works. No hassle, just poor battery life. Maybe get Superuser and remove the adware/junk if you feel like it.
2: Use a custom ROM which will not have working 4g, FFC, and other features that you won't know they don't work until you go to use them.
Weigh the pros and cons and make a choice, but everyone here so far is correct. The device is EOL and there will most likely never be a working ICS/JB build that has all features working. That would require too much work, for an EOL device.

If you must have all radios and hardware of the EVO 4G fully functional, you should stick with a gingerbread ROM v 2.3.5 or later. MikG 3.11 is a Sense based ROM that is well integrated and fully supports all EVO 4G operations. You can download MikG 3.11 at http://themikmik.com/showthread.php?10338-MikG-v3-11-3-9-2012.
As others have indicated, no ICS or Jellybean ROM supports 4G or the FFC. Sadly the necessary work for the hardware drivers is not likely to happen. If you do not require working 4G or FFC, there are a number of fully functional Android 4.0.4 (ICS) or 4.1.2 (Jellybean) ROMs available. I happen to like HALO Series II Nova http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903469&page=33 and AlienMOD Solar Flare Series V http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086163 with the caveat that I am experiencing some tint issues with camera applications in these ROMs.
