Best/thin Roms - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I just picked up an evo yesterday, and am trying to figure out what are some good roms out there that have 4G working? Any good rom/kernel combos?
Also what are some roms that are small. I've noticed that some of them are pushing 200mb, and when I've got 300mb or so free, size is a factor, I don't care what she says!

if you want to use sense, try MikG or tommytomato classic rom. Aosp roms decks is the best.

It's weird coming to a new phone, nothing is familiar to me. It looks like there are a lot of old threads that aren't developing be are still staying alive. It gets a little confusing. Lol
Anything has to be better that touchwiz. I don't see MikG's anywhere.

Size really isn't a factor for many roms since most of them support dta2sd.

[Q] Virus Rom port

Does anyone have a copy of the port? I Loved the blue version of that Rom and obviously its been discontinued on the inc
But maybe someone has a update zip for that Rom somewhere

I still have the original zip. Send me a PM and I'll send it to you tomorrow when I get to work.
Besides some nice theming, I don't think this rom was better than the uber, super, warm, nil's versions we have already got in our forums.

Like what other stuff??
Been running MikRunny for a while now, it's my daily driver. Great ROM and save for little things here and there it's been running great.
My little things are you can't dial out when a number has been formatted as +1-123-456-7890, Every custom sense ROM i've been on though has had this issue.

[Q] WebOS on the Galaxy S2?

Is it do-able? I know that things like the GNex, and an evo have gotten some of the open source versions of it, so why not us? How hard could it be?

Well, it all comes down to the willingness of a developer if he/she wants to port it or not. If you question the availability of porting webos, then you try porting it then.
Another option would be good, but at this point, why? With ics stable and jb stable around the corner, it really doesnt make sense for a dev to port it. Webos lacks alot compared to android.

The developers always love challenges. They might port it if it is interesting enough. I think the matter is whether we have the good enough developers, who use S2.

I think our developers are good enough to do it its just we don't have a lot of them compared to other phones. The more there are the better the odds are of something like that happening.. We are still better off than other phone models!

We only have few active developers. Some also have left oir community. So, i guess we should enjoy JB instead of dreaming about webOS.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Just for **** and giggles, if you go to the sr forum and flash the aromakang you have an option for sense 4 two and webos. Just a lil FYI. Does not need any rotation fix or anything like that.

I been looking online for a webos launcher or a good theme thats not for cm9. But no luck, also there is a webos theme for gb miui not miuiv4 for some reasons gb miui themes are not compatible with miui v4. sure wish there could be a easy way of converting gb themes work on ics miui rom. Seems like Gb was more popular on themes than ics
I've been doing some looking... it honestly doesn't look so difficult.

I recently got with whitehawkz via twitter and he gave me permission to release his juggernaut rom with updated files, mods, tweaks, apps etc. Who would be interested in this?

We do appreciate the hard work developers contribute to our Hercules community. Other users preference is not a weakness.
I'm up for it. This seems to be the one rom that my phone works the best with and battery life is fantastic. I've tried several ICS roms and while I really like certain things about them, for whatever reason, they don't always play nice on my phone.
get it

I hate the OG's dialer

If there was one single thing that I truely hate about this phone, it's the dialer. Maybe HTC spoiled me with the sense dialer, perhaps I spent too much time using MIUI, all I know is that our stock dialer has the least intuitive interface since CIUI for the EVO 4G.
Can anyone recommend a good alternative?

Once I get time for some ROM development this weekend I will replace it with either AOSP, CM, or HTC Sense dialer. You guys pick which one.
