Try kushdeck's ROM, I'm running it and it works great.

Kushdecks rom is pretty great. I ran the latest build for several days with no problem.
You guys both didn't answer the question, lmfao Are we getting dropped?
Technically there are no truly supported device for CM9 as they haven't even made any nightly releases. With that said, according to the official statement, QSD8250 devices (Nexus One, Inc, Evo4g) should be supported. That is planned but not definite.
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cm9-progress-update
Above is the official statement from CM. If you want CM9 support, CUViper is the CM maintainer for the Inc. Coming from a Galaxy Nexus user using AOSP, AOKP is a great ROM based on stock. CM9 is not really even ready on the GNex so I'd say they're still working on it. It's not as simple as a transition from froyo to gingerbread.
Evervolv ICS rom preview is better than omx and INC-Deck imo. I have a post on rootzwiki with everything you need, link to the rom, gapps and the exchange.apk fix

Haha, maybe I should just follow you around apophis and keep giving a +1 to Evervolv ICS p5
But seriously, best ICS rom out there right now IMHO
Hey a good rom is a good rom. Im not bashing other devs but the rom is the most complete at the moment. Since he only post updates on twitter i post everything everywhere i can so more people can have this awesome rom
I used to be a hard core cyanogenmod user and I recently switched over to MIUI which will be coming out with v4 soon
I am much happier with MIUI.. give it a try..
jss24,
Is MIUI v4 based upon ICS? Is there some place that gives info about what can be expected out it. I would like see what they are cooking up.
yes there is a CM9 in the works. most of the ICS builds that are out now for the phone are repo'ed from CM source.
I don't know if CM9 will get inc support but the kushdeck alpha 5 has the camera working now; so feel free to FLASH AWAY!! eh, eh, see what he did there?
There is already a CM9 release out for the INC, but I'm assuming it's very buggy and it is missing some important apps.
Here's the link:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10750-romunofficialcm9-with-working-hardware-acceleration/
Be sure to check further down the page for another download that's required in order to boot it up.
Not really a release more along the lines of a port. I dont believe it will have any more support
nope R2 pulled repo from cm so its not a port. they are work on it. we still have one maintainer left. CUViper. i have faith in him.
First line in r2s post says , so i ported cm9 to the inc earlier to see if hardware acceleration worked
Why would he say that if it wasnt a port?
Likely to be a port only, but that's where most of our great ROMs come from. These are called AOSP for a reason...
On another note, CCM7 (V10) is a great ROM to hold you off until ICS hits us in February, oops did I drop dates?
Oh well, I was going to post pictures of my setup, but I guess I am too new.
What is ccm7 v10? Where can it be found
Condemned cm7, ill pass

Hi everybody,
I am not a DEV. This is my first time to cook a ROM for a Android phone Hero.
This rom is compiled from CM 7.2 source.
Please find the screenshot attached.
Get it at http://www.multiupload.com/4R5TDKMO9H
Don't forget to flash gapp after flashing this room

Thanks you

HELLO,
What is the difference between this rom and a regular CM7?
this one is probably the last stable build of cm7 synced to the latest repositories
great rom and snappy, cyanogenmod's nightly builds not updated since 16th November so good alternative.
many thanks

They wont be because of CM9 development.
reupload it pls..!
Resurrected my hero after months and installed cm 7.1. I find it too laggy (stock clocks).
I'm thinking of going back to Froyo. How is this rom compared to 7.1?
Anyone interested in a new nightly? I'm compiling regular nightlies for the Desire S, but I'm still in love with my old hero I just compiled one and it works great. It's just standard cm7, I only added a Dutch dictionary to it
Lots of changes happened in 2 months. The T9 dialer alone makes it worthwhile.
I just need a way to upload it to somewhere...

brilliant, i'll try this out when i've got time
also thank you for pointing out that the nightlies are back online. its good to see them back
How's the speed with this? Want to try this but don't want it to be slow
Tried this one out and all works well. I'm pretty sure apps2sd isn't implemented which makes it difficult for me to use daily, but this shouldn't take too much work to include. Gapps is not included so remember to flash a version. Speed is ok, quicker with launcher pro but not as quick as my daily driver ( aosp). Thanks for your work on the Rom, all development for hero gratefully received
Thanks! The new nightly is really stable and all functions working as meant to. Really do love the pure cm side of it, speed wise I think it's faster than decked in my opinion or maybe it's just me and also I absolutely love the transitional animations between the screens, makes it honestly feel like a new phone! Really youse should try this rom for yourselves, it's a joy to use. This'll be my daily from now on as i'm that pleased with it, and still no problems it seems.

The rom is fast, I am talking about the new nightly one just to be more exact, I also like the new ICS rotation animation that has been ported to GB.
I've used Darktremor Apps2SD 2.7.5.3 . I flashed beta03 as beta04 bootlooped for me.
Can anyone please explain what AOKP is? I know it stands for Android Open Kang Project, but what is Kang? I've tried searching the forums here and in RootzWiki as well as a general Google search and I've come up with nothing that is helpful.
I've seen a lot of AOKP roms, but no explanation as to exactly what they are, although I've noticed that many of them have a lot of the CM9 mods.
Thank You!
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure "Kang" is just the name of the team that develops the ROM.

im not sure if that was what it meant to begin with, but these days it means a rom compiled by a person rather than a server.
so most of CM's roms are compiled automatically by there servers. However some people make CM Kangs by taking the source and compiling it them selves. This means they can add all the commits/mods/features which the servers have but dont have assisgned to the roms for various reasons.
So Kangs will often have slightly newer features and are also less likely to have issues because a user has gone through and made sure everything is in the rom(Hopefully). where as the servers wont know if a driver is broken/missing.
You can also get kangs of other roms i suppose. sorry if i repeated myself
Kang

AOKP is a play on AOSP, the Android Open Source Project.
AOKP is basically any rom made by or from the CyanogenMod source. It it NOT true CyanogenMod however.

AOKP is actually not from CM source. As you can see in his ROM thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402341 it has nothing to do with CM9 kangs.
It's just a play off AOSP and the general status of the Android community. AOKP is build from AOSP source, not CM9, even though I use bits and pieces of it. If you look, most of the features to AOKP are unique .

Wow! Thanks for all the responses. I'm glad that I'm not the only one who didn't know what it meant, but I think I have a better idea now. But why use Kang instead of Source (AOKP instead of AOSP) if it's built from source? I was always afraid to flash an AOKP ROM because I didn't know what it was and just thought that it was a ROM in its early alpha stages and had a ton of bugs.
Thanks again!!!

Because AOSP is pure stock Android. With AOKP, new features are being added in. So calling his ROM AOSP when its not AOSP is misleading.
AOKP is just simply a name of a ROM. Developers can give their ROM names anything they'd like. AOKP is certainly not buggy and I use it as a daily driver (even on nightlies). Very good ROM and maintained with updates

You're welcome. I've never heard of it either but I just always assumed it was a name of a ROM
I recommend using franco's kernel with the ROM. Both of them push out updates every other day. You can always wait for feedback on the kernel before flashing but they're usually both good to go in terms of stability
There's a lot of debate about what kang actually means. From what I've read it's developed to mean anytime you take bits and pieces of code from other people and incorporate them into your own mod. If you didn't write it then you "kanged" it from someone else. Someone else probably knows the original origin of the word, but at least this gives a good definition.

Now that bytecode has given us CWM, the question becomes what current ROM or branch of cyanogenmod would give us the biggest jump on getting a working image for our phones?
I think CM9 would be a good candidate. It would probably be the most popular choice to get working. I know I'm itching for ICS on our phone. I think it would make it the best phone on the market for now.
I'm no programmer so I can only say my opinion... I think whatever can be done first to get away from LG / AT&T software. If that's CM7, cool, if it's CM9, cool.
I'd think CM7 is the way to go to jump into a custom ROM that you could get working the fastest for this phone. CM7 has been out for a LONG time and it's been well tweaked and it's SOLID!
BUT... CM9 is what's coming (and for more and more phones/tabs, it's what's already here!).
I say even if it takes more effort now (vs. an older and more stable CM7), go right with CM9 and let's get this party started!

Why not ICS? Maybe it would be easy to port ICS for Galaxy Nexus to Nitro?
I'd say CM7 since by the time you finish getting CM9 figured out and working with the current kernal, it will have already been released by LG.
I'm going to start working on my own custom rom, at least as long as i can figure out how to get my Ubuntu setup... ugg..
Does anyone know any good guides for making your own AOSP ROMS? Or is it all, learned knowledge and experience?

Question to any who know, if we were to put CM9 or any ICS on the Nitro, will it use hardware acceleration? That is the main feature I have been waiting for.

Hardware acceleration for the UI? Or 3D / 2D graphics?
I think I read the other day that you can force the UI to use hardware acceleration in the build.prop file. With CWM feel free to tinker.

unless someone on the CM team gets a nitro, there will be no ICS/CM9 until LG puts out a rom.
We need to just start w/ the basics. Optimize (battery life and performance) what we currently have and go from there.
I find your lack of faith...disturbing
Seriously, I think we can get a pretty damn good rom going if we put some work into it.

CyanogenMod: http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
CM7 is based on Gingerbread and is a very optimized and customizable ROM (OS) for the phone, which is generally close to perfect and has a myriad of features that you don't normally find in regular/stock ROMs.
CM9 is the same basic concept as CM7, except it is based on ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich, Android's latest OS).
ICS: http://www.android.com/about/ice-cream-sandwich/
---------- Post added at 08:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 AM ----------
In my opinion, our phone is built to support ICS or any iteration of it (clear stated by the 3 softkeys instead of 4 in gingerbread). So I suggest we proceed with either ICS or CM9.
I don't know if it matters, but I think someone should reach out to CM team and inform them of the development. I am sure they will be very interested in developing CM9 for a phone that is clearly intended to be a rival to the Galaxy Nexus.
The main thing to consider is the kernel , ICS runs on 3.xx kernel and gingerbread on 2.6 , porting 2.6 kernel drivers to 3.xx is alot of work. codeaurora kernel is a good start

I think a simple debloated init.d optimized stock ROM should be the starting point. Starting a long project like CM9 will only slow down the adoption rate of the phone because the progress will be slow. I think most people will want to see a couple of ROM choices before they jump aboard.
Once you use CM9 it will automatically start hardware acceleration for smoothness and my upcoming base ROM that i'm including is going to have hardware acceleration and much more, please stay tune.

I have not tried Psycho's CM9 Global yet, but I hear it is pretty much fully functional except for the FFC is upside down or something...I have tried their CM10 Global and it is a smooth running rom, just a couple of little bugs they are working out. Mimicry CM9 based rom is almost fully functional...only thing not working that I know for sure is the FFC. Those are the only roms I have tried recently. I have also read that the Viper Sense rom is pretty good too, but it is Sense 4. I prefer the Paranoid Android, but there are some camera issues with it and a couple of other small bugs that don't affect me that much so I never notice them. Other than that I am out of suggestions, I have not tried UKB, MIUI, or any of the other roms that I hear are great roms.

I started with aeroevan's CM9 ROM and it was terribly slow and pretty buggy. I had to reboot it at least once a day. I'm now running Psycho's CM10 Global and it's actually been really great, aside from the nonfunctional FFC, graphic tearing with Chrome, and unstable Bluetooth. Also, the CM10 Global ROM has an issue where after locking the phone it will take 1-2 seconds before allowing you to unlock again.

Sorry, this is the only thread I ever check, so I didn't even think about it. Is there a way for me to move it? If not I guess I can just delete it...
IC Tazz has been flawless for me. I tried CM9 and CM10 for a few weeks, they work pretty good but are not 100%.
I'm using the new viper Rom. In the past I've always preferred sense tho. Viper is nice. But I prefer my own non sense widgets. So my phone basically looks the same as it did when running cm10. So I'm not sure what the point of staying on viper. Must say battery life is impressive, especially for a sense Rom. Battery life was one reason why I hated sense. But then my phone doesn't really look like sense anyways since I'm using all the same widgets as I did w aosp. *confused*

Haha, I can understand that. I've only been around this one for the past few months. Seriously, thanks for the reminder. I won't forget next time haha
for an ics rom, i gotta say viper sense is the most bug-free. both the ffc camera and rear cameras work fine, and you can shoot fine in 720p HD recording, a problem with many other roms.
this was one of the main problems i had with most CM's and aosp roms was that the stock camera sucked. it didnt even compare to the sense camera and pictures looked they were taken with a basic phone. the viper sense camera was great, maybe even better than stock.
as for bugs, i think the only thing was that taking a picture while recording didnt work, i dont think its supposed to though cuz the inc2 isnt designed for it? also for some reason after a reboot it changed from cdma to gsm, and i think the only way to change that it running the aroma installer again.
I'm no expert or developer but there is quite a few Roms that I have found a pretty stable that could be used as a daily driver with no problem. If you're not rooted I recommend trying it and giving some Roms a test run and seeing what you like before ditching your inc2 its a whole new experience.

Fully functional eh? Both dkstunna and Aerovans cm9 & 10 both run nicely. Just have to make some changes depending on your carrier but youll find the solutions by reading the threads. But don't forget most roms are like that woman in the red light district. She's pretty and fun and can do a lot but there is also something under that skirt that is fully functional.

It's been a pretty solid experience for a few months now.
Condemned Sense's Stock Build Odexed.
Depends on your definition of "fully-functional." For me that means everything that the stock ROM has including FFC, rotating softkeys, 720P camcorder, wifi-tethering, etc. Most of the ROMS listed (excluding stock ROMS) so far have issues with at least one of these things. I don't consider a mentality of "living with minor bugs" consistent with "fully-functional."
Personally my list would include:
- any of the the "standard" Sense 2.1 Gingerbread ROMs like GingerSense, SkyRaider Zeus, etc. (they all use the official 2.65 kernel specifically built for GB)
- Arctic Ascension 2.02 (aka IC Tazz 3.6) - Sense 3.6 using the leaked Chinese v3.x OTA kernel - everything including the stuff I mentioned works on it. It even includes features not even the stock ROM has such as automatic 3G switching when sending and receiving MMS messages.
Try CM 7.2, it was the first rom i flashed. the battery life is extraordinary and it runs fast like hell! only problem is its a bit old fashioned.
I'm currently running ViperSense 1.1, but its just slightly slow because its using a stock kernel
Thanks everyone for taking the time to give me this information. I have been busy but plan to look into these very soon! Much appreciation!

Finally decided to just post and ask for some help. I don't care about beats audio or any other stuff people add in, just plain stock is preferable, but I need wifi, 4g, youtube, and all the camera stuff to work. Are there any ICS or JB ROMs out there where everything works the way it should?

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 .

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.

They exist but are not finished and only CM7 is listed on the cyanogenmod page under the HTC Evo.

The CM9 and CM10 builds to which I refer are completed ROMs. They're just not officially supported by CyanogenMod. But they're built directly from CM source.

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.

I have spent the last few hours searching all over, just like I do every few months, trying to find a stable ICS or Jellybean ROM with everything actually working. Finally decided to just post and ask for some help. I don't care about beats audio or any other stuff people add in, just plain stock is preferable, but I need wifi, 4g, youtube, and all the camera stuff to work. Are there any ICS or JB ROMs out there where everything works the way it should?

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.

Try jmztaylor's unofficial CM9. It's my daily driver, and it's solid. 4G doesn't work, but Wifi, Youtube, and the camera all work perfectly.
