Uhh, you're asking if we have a special board just for female evo users? Really??
Themes can generally be found in the themes section. Since you know, that's where themes go.

Hey im new to the android and just got the evo 4g couple weeks ago...i rooted it using unrevoked3 and dont know exactly wat imsupposed to do or wat i can do with itand how...i have read about it and wat i can do but i get confused with all the files and codes...I would ask a friend but not one of my friends have an android or at least rooted one so if anyone can help at all id appreciate it thanks.
Welcome to the family.
I would start off by browsing around the Evo specific forums, there's alot of good information contained there in regards to what you can do with your newly rooted superphone.
If you have specific questions, there's a good chance that someone else has asked the same thing. Before you start any threads asking questions, use the search function and see if the topic has already been covered elsewhere. Otherwise, you'll get flamed.
Personally, I've installed the Fresh Evo 3.5.0.1 ROM on my Evo, with the MattedBlues theme on top and currently using LauncherPro instead of the stock HTC Sense. Also, I'm using a custom kernel. I've found that setup gives a great compromise between performance and battery life.
Good luck!
Hello, my name is Zach I just joined his site in behalf of my HTC EVO 4G that I've just ordered. I should be getting it tomorrow or Monday I'm not quite sure. I hope you android savvy people could help me out with rootin my EVO or of I should wait?
I want to get to Linux and coding and ROMs I currently own a IPod touch 3rd generation. I've used almost every single Jailbreak. But it just seems to simple.
So I ordered a new phone because I wanted to explore the whole android part. I done some very sophisticated things with coding making servers Etc. But this looks pretty difficult on rooting my EVO. I read many posts on here on what Roms are out and stuff.
I read that some increase battery life or even increase camera resolution. So here's where I get to my question. I know you may of heard a nooby question like this a million times but, " What ROM should I get that would improve speed on my evo, improve screen resolution and camera resolution, and could also use wifi tether. And also does t deactivate the cameras?" and I also want to be able to change the theme of the evo if you can do that.
I also have Android version 2.3.3 if that makes any difference..
Thanks!
ZACH

Nitrous ROM
You have got to try Nitrous ROM by raafaell before you settle on a selection. I was a flash-oholic for a while after I rooted. Until I found Nitrous. I also did not want a bunch of themed stuff, just gets to be too much. 4G does work...where you can get it. Super smooth, darker blue tones throughout, all your standard mods (battery, transitions) too if you want to metamorph that stuff.
It will certainly be worth your time to check it out I have continued to try other ROMs because there are some really talented devs out there making some great work but I always go home to Nitrous.
Go here, give him a thanks too!

Yeah Nitrous is pretty cool. I used it for a while.
But I'm a flashaholic through and through. So now I'm following JMZ's work.
Who needs to buy a new phone?
Sent from my HTC EVO 4G running JMZ's CM10 ROM.
So I came over to AT&T the 10th and love it. Love my HOX(except the low storage space, which is moot if you have dropbox or other cloud storage I guess.) It is elegant and I actually love Sense on this thing coming from a Galaxy S2 with touchwiz. I find it refreshing and it is, for me, a combination of what I loved about my Nexus S 4G and what I loved about my Hero as far as design and such. So, I heard 2.20 is not rootable thus far. This phone came with 1.85 on it and it is prompting to update the software. So, I am curious if I should just go ahead and try to root now or just update and be patient and see what develops. I get confused with this phone's forum support because some threads are for the Tegra 3 only and some aren't. As of right now I am not even sure if the US version is capable of S-Off or not, I am intermittently doing searches and trying to find credible information as much as I can. Please understand that I am consistently busy with my child and other things in life at the moment so this isn't necessarily priority as it is for some of you and I mean that respectfully. Any information or advice is appreciated. I am an average user. I have had two rooted phones both being Samsung so HTC development/modification is new to me thus far since I never rooted my Hero. I don't plan to tether but I would like more options that require root such as aesthetic changes and other optimizations, and some battery life advantages. So my question is should I get in a hurry and root now with 1.85 or is development with 2.2 or further going to go quick enough that I could wait and see what kind of options come out of it?

1. Paragraphs.
2. This forum is more for the international or tegra 3 version, but your questions are general enough I think.
Your phone is new enough that I think you should run stock until you've formed a solid opinion of if you even like it.
An inherent danger of rooting then flashing a new Rom is that something may go wrong. If you're new to it, you may tank an otherwise perfectly functional device. Then you'd be miffed and posting threads about how awful the phone is.
If you look around there are several people that have done exactly that and blame HTC.
My advice is to really break it in for a few weeks. Enjoy having a warranty and if you REALLY just want to root for aesthetic changes, then read up before taking the risk.
Welcome Board and good luck.

You should look at the AT&T one x section. This is for the international tegra verison so roms are different. Id root your 1.85 version then get a custom rom on it. Neither device has S-Off at the moment.
Okay, so I really am not a complete noob lol, BUT I've heard that the jelly bean update made certain methods unusable, and frankly I have a policy of being well read and informed before screwing around with my phones. I was well versed with odin, recovery, flashing whatever i could get my hands on lol. But this is a new phone and I want to be educated, so could someone please walk me through some things. first of all which method works for a new jelly bean, I noticed a thread with a one click stock with root and a deodex option. is this where I want to be. How do I grab a custom recovery. Is it similar to the epic where once i have recovery and root i can just flash appropriate mods roms,kernels from recovery? Is there a good walk through some place that's relevant to the new jelly bean update. I was all excited to jump in, i downloaded the latest odin and drivers and then started seeing some posts about older methods causing soft bricks on jelly bean, and being humility is a good policy I thoght I'd come here, chill out for a night and follow the lead of those wise than I haha!
I can understand it,so no need to baby me, but i would love for some thorough reading links, places with good info. I would ordinarily spend half the night searching ever last link, and did look a little and find how to get into download mode, but frankly I'm sick and suffering with some MS like issues they are trying to nail down and my eyes go in and out of focus at times, dizzy, and already have a spinal cord being hollowed out from the inside out and have ALS symptoms (i have syringomyelia), so not to whine whine, it is what it is, but i just wanted to say I'm not trying to be lazy as I've seen since back on sdx days with the moment, people popping in, not doing their homework and *****ing and whining for hand holding lol, it's just not as easy as it used to be to stay up and just learn myself when my eyes refuse to keep going and I have the kiddies and too many classes. So I'm hoping a generous person(s) could help guide me a little?? I would really appreciate it. I've always had a slide phone I liked being able to edit from recovery from the keyboard, create symbolic links, move thing etc. It just felt like I had more control over the phone, so this is my first attempt at a purely touch phone, but really 2 years on the epic and I was starting to not even care that it was running like junk i was so bored. I had gone through every MTD rom and just bored haha so here I am guy and gals...guide me wise yodas! and an extra thanks to all the work I saw people involved in. It truly blows my mind, the most i ever did was modify a malfunctioning apps2sd mod for the moment to make it work, by following the logic from the original development and fixing the permissions in the link...haha and that's rather pathetic to what i see being done all over, so hats off, buy ya a red bull, beer or whatever many thanks! let the S3 games begin! where are good info posts to aquaint me, what is this flash count thing all about? what methods for jelly bean, recovery, etc...and many thanks. I really love these communities and I can't tell you how hard i try to get my i phone friends on over to here haha...you guys are a great bunch!

Follow that link to find all kinds of useful guides to get you on your way. I followed the same path you did, moment to epic to GS3, and qbking77 has not lead me astray. And welcome to the GS3 community!

I came from the epic 4g touch and it was kind of a mess because of the emmc bug. This phone is easy to work with though. Look up qbking77 on YouTube also he has a video on how to root and reviews for about every ROM I think.

Most of all, Welcome to the family, Use the search function, if you can't find an answer, We will help! This community is wonderful and helpful. As was stated Qbking77 has some of the most helpful reviews/how-tos around.
I will admit to being a complete noob when it comes to rooting/flashing phones, and the GS3 was my first attempt. The guides and videos mentioned in the above posts are what I used to learn what to do with the GS3. I was shocked at how easy it is! I did read, and then read again the many posts concerning rooting/flashing before I did it myself, but the process is a piece of cake.
I will add this though: when you have chosen a ROM that suits you, please check out this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968724. You can use Morphology to really make your GS3 unique, and very much "your" phone!
Love that you came from moment, to Epic 4G and SG3 as did I!! Check out Team Veniums Roms Daze does really good work and always updating them!!

Thanks everyone. I I greatly appreciate the warm welcome to S3...it is an amazing phone... Sorry for delay we had a family emergency and now i have a 6 months old for the night lol but I am excited to read through the suggested places. I bet this phone is so snapy when tweaked! I its so cool to see if am no alone in moment to epic etc lol I honestly have had no desire to look at an HTC or other information just loved the waythe sSamsung was set up, and could 3 finger it while driving with my knee wipe and flash a new baby haha maybe not safe but it was that effortlessly maybe once a Samsung lover always a Samsung lover I I'll have to let you know how it all works out when I'm does with emergency baby duty... Night all! I and thanks and feel free to anyone in to throw out any thoughts... My goal is to know every rom and kernel development mod by next semesters start haha
so diff from epic...what is best procedure for wiping? when flashing
So I feel a little lost in TW recovery. On my epic most OP clearing listed the proper procedure, davlik x3, cache x3, and occassionally data x3. simple. Well I go into the wipe section of this new recovery and frankly I'm guessing lol. My phone has been acting super junking since i rooted and flashed a rom. I wanted to try out some other modems because sprint is sucking up all over western mass....and half the modems told me no sim card. Even when i went back and flashed the all in one fimrware/modem for jelly bean, my data was all screwed practically non existent. I did a davlik wipe in between Went back to flashing a rooted near stock rom after basically wiping everything haha, except for my external card. because i really don't know what the appropriate procedure is. The epic CMW seemed pretty straight forward and the OP's either listed the procedure or it was assumed, everything times 3
so basically I am wondering if someone can direct me with the TW recovery, when flashing a new rom and wanting a nice clean install, what do i need to wipe
also if flashing something like the modem picker zip, or just flashing a modem myself, or a mod, what needs to be wiped.
I don't know if the LJ7 modem just wasn't playing nice with the FREEGS3 latest rom, but it was so screwed up i was bummed, and I did read thoroughly, swamped my CWM recovery,
I noticed a post that listed fix permissions in procedure, then others that don't, and I'm a big fan of knowing what the F*** I'm doing before screwing with my phone, so I'm aggrivated with the seeming ambiguity . If anyone can listed some 101 for the S3, for flashing, what needs to be wiped, when i need to fix permissions etc. I'd be very grateful. I'm scanning through 1300 pages of one thread and want to shoot myself due to headache. And everything I look at isn't working today HAHA, dish TV bombed and will be down a week. My asus (unrooted, stock) transformer is being a punk, and my Boxee just decided it's not working too...awesome day, need a snappy working phone to perk me up, so going to ODIN back to stock , root and wait for a little direction on procedure for cleanest install, before screwing with a rom
any thoughts between Peoples or FREEGS3? I like both, but I feel like FREEGS3 calls to me, lol, maybe I shouldn't admit those things outloud.
