I've never had an evo, and never even looked in the development section. just some quick recommendations, thanks! I don't need help flashing, I just need something to flash >

i recommend flashing MikG its very stable and has alot of tweaks
CM7 is a great aosp rom.. Stable fast and highly customizable.
Tommy Tomatoes Classic is a great Sense 1.0 rom that has a huge community of themers, mods and developers. Very stable and fast. Im using it now as a daily driver.
MIUI is a good aosp rom that's pretty smooth.very useful to make iphone users mad and envy you lol

is CM7 still the go-to for stability? I used to run that on some of my older HTC devices.
As for the TTC, is that going to be noticeably slow with sense on it? thanks!
The classic is so fast lol.. It doesn't lag one bit.
As for cm7 it's my personal favorite when I feel the need for aosp. It's up to you. But if I had to choose for you I would say TTC. it gives you all the beauty of sense but has great battery life and speed with a huge collection of themes, tweaks and mods

Have a look at MIUI Roms it's fast and smooth no 4g yet but don't let that discourage you. It's highly customizable from lock screen to boot animations. It has everything. It's what I am using today.
MIUI 2.2.6 by Swiperat. Hands down!
The Express
Basically turns your Evo into a tablet.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425040
you should flash miui its the smoothest IV been on, cm 7.2. synergy roms are godly for a sence type warm two point three is smooth as well. if your in to gaming try cm 7.2 with snapturbo 7.6 its the highest benchmark you can get
I am still pretty new to Roms but I love MikG 3.0 that I just installed. It is stable and has good options and a few nice themes people have made. I also previously used Warm 2.2 which was pretty awesome. There is a Warm 2.3 which was nice but didn't have 4G connectivity.
Evervolv ICS
If you're interested in ICS, I'd recommend Evervolv ICS, as the devs in charge are constantly pioneering new features and additions to their ROM. As of February 19, 2012, you can find the latest version of Evervolv ICS here.

Im not familiar with the new 3.0 roms so I was trying to get some general opinions on which ones are good, stable, fast, good battery life, etc.
Everything I currently have is in my signature.
Have a link to Pyramid? I wasnt able to find it in Google.
I am pretty sure this is the Pyramid ROM he was talking about.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171892&highlight=pyramid
But I am currently on Synergy and I am really liking it, it took about a day for it to settle down but now its working like a charm.
Any others?
Also does anyone have any experience with the ROM in my signature? Id be interested in a side by side comparison of the two.
Synergy is really nice.
Seems to be less than a handful of worthwhile ROM's in the 3.0 arena.
Go with OVORene Community Rom is really nice stable and fast

Post what ROM you are currently using and why
I'm running Synergy RLS1 w/ Warm theme on my Evo
I like it because it comes along with the Sense 3.0 lockscreen, and the developers community is HUGE.
I love sense but I've been rocking decks aosp rom for a while just because of full HDMI mirroring and battery life is great.

Cool! Yeah, battery life would definently be a factor, I barely push out 3 hours on what I'm using now.
CM 7 Nightlies.
I'm using the same rom loving the 3.0 lockscreen (synergy rom latest)
My Oreo Evo 4g G-bread
Currently running Synergy RLS1 but I am thinking of taking a look at MikG. I like the Sense 3.0 lock screen and the Sense apps. I have not tried out any AOSP on my Evo but my (deactivated) Hero runs CM7. I may have to check out Deck for the battery life.
I've been looking into MIUI, not quite sure though. I like how It's more simple, and seemingly cleaner. Yet I'm not a big fan of iOS, which it strongly resembles.

Decks Rom gingerbread-evo-deck 1.3b. This is really the only ROM I've had luck with! I've tried just about everyone else's ROMS and I like the Sense ROMS but after about 2 or 3 days or so I start getting FC's for no apparent reason for my phone process, then sense, then android system, etc...
So until I figure out why I am having so much issues with Sense I'll keep using Decks ROM!!
Deck 1.2.1 with Tiamat SBC kernel.
Light, fast, and great battery life.
CyanogenMod 7.1. Like the stripped down feel of it, and seems to run smoother than 7.0.3.
Still some bugs here and there, but it IS still in development.
Synergy's starting to work pretty well, though. Just hate the lag from Sense.

Decks ROM? Never heard of it, I'll be sure to check it out though I used Synergy for a few days and it worked wonders for me (love the animations in the Warm theme), hopefully no issues arise.
Since root I've flashed five or six different roms. I kinda like a little from all of them but I keep coming back to the stock I did a nandroid of. I think it runs smoother and faster than the other roms. But that is my opinion.

Are you looking to upgrade to 2.3 or stick with 2.2?
If you want to stick with 2.2, my vote is for SkyRaider 4.3 on the Team Bamf site. It is my all-time favorite. I don't use it anymore simply because it is still 2.2.
I've got no advice on sense 2.3, as I use AOSP now.
I gotta have me some notification toggles (which SkyRaider has)....
+1
Skyraider is an excellently built ROM and is extremely stable.
First rom I ever used

Thanks for the suggestions guys, much appreciated. Weekend project time now! I don't know which one I'm going with yet, but I might just flash a 2.2 rom one day and a 2.3 the next and see which one she likes more.

I know this is kind of a late response but, I'd suggest checking out Gingerbread-Inc-Deck. It is very stable and very smooth. Or, there's Bugless Beast. It is fairly stable but really fast! More of a stock ROM...

i just installed the stock+ rom... so far so good.
i like the stock phone but wanted to fix things like ext4 to fix the low memory issues which lead me to needing non-stock kernel. stock+ rom / kernel got installed this morning and so far so good!
Did you try the messaging icon under all apps? Sometimes I have to remove the messaging icon on the main screen and drag the all-apps one back to the front screen. Then all is fine again...not sure why???
I've personally tried a few Sense 3.5 ROMs and the upgrades to the interface are really slick. I'd definitely recommend giving a couple of them a shot.
Try Nils Business Gingersense 3.5 or Prime XL 3D to get a feel for it.
Cyanogenmod 7 with the new Incredikernel is my favorite, if she do without the 720p recording give that a try.

That's my personal setup, along with ext4 / unlimited data mod, and I love it. My girlfriend really likes sense though, so we'll see what happens. Flashing for hers got delayed as the ext4 mod called my name.

The MikG rom would probably be your best bet for everything to work like stock.
It's based on stock, but with some tweaks to make it better and more efficient.

Man I would go with decks 1.3 or 1.3d try and see which one works better on her phone, make sure you set it up for her, and I would add launcher pro to it, set widgets and shortcuts, and theme. My wife loved it, no problems at all, you could also flash the data governor killer zip, so her 3g is always at top speed

I would say Tommy's classic v0.0.5 final untilled the new final comes out. Its very quick and stable. Its the only sense rom that has kept my from going back to aosp.
i say go with cm7 or shooter rls 5.5 both are great roms but cm7 will give her a bit more battery life.
So what we're Reeeeally trying to say is, They're all great roms. You'll just have to try them until you find the one that suits you...(meanwhile, behind the facade of an innocent sounding phone hacker,drlzanej is underhandedly trying to create another "Flashoholic". dun,,,,dun dundun, duuun)
ODJ DUB HD BLISS! I love this rom and everything works. Also has a blue theme etc.! Just make sure and partition the sd card as directed.

The first three are sense 1.0 tweaked to the max
The second two are sense 2.1 with 3.0 widgets
The last two are 3D ports. Sense 3.0
All are fully functional and well built. All depends on what she likes.

i was just looking for the name of the rom to let him know i got it fot my girlfreind and she loves it you got down on that one diablo keep up the good work. Pink Pussycat is the best fot the wife trust me shell like it
I'm defiantly a flashaholic. That's the biggest problem. There are many ROM's out there that I've tried. I prefer a sense 3.5 ROM but it lacks 4G among other things. I put her on the MikG ROM and it seems to be running fine. I had a stock OTA on there but the phone kept getting FC's however; I recently found that she's been in Titanium Backup removing files that she has no idea interact with the OS. Silly wife, tweaks are for peeps!
Don't know if this is solved it not...but If you want sense I recommend Tommy tomatoes classic, for soso it's decks all the way...find one that works with a2sd and your set
Rock and roll ain't never gonna die...

There are so many opinions on the different Rom's that are available for the OG Evo 4g from Sprint. It is basically up to you in the long run, just depends what you like and how you react to different things. My personal opinion is to go with DigitalKarmas Jackpot Deluxe Edition, which is the ONLY, I repeat ONLY Rom that I have ran that is fast, stable, no force closes, and particularly crisp. I've tried every single Rom available for the Evo and I still to this day cannot get enough of DK's Rom. Like I said, everyone has totally different opinions on how they like and want their Rom to be, act, feel, look and run, so its solely based upon your liking. Hope I helped
Thank you for your input everyone I have a question.... what does rc1 and nightlies mean I know the roms go in order as release candidates and other names like that but what is the order they go in like would rc1 be the first update of the rom I thought nightlies was one of the first releases of the roms so I always stay away from those.... also I'm not running on the sprint network I'm on cricket I found the Droid gtr 1.6 Tom and its pretty smooth right now thank you guys I will try out some of your suggestions....
