roms and 4g

I'm coming over here from the Samsung Captivate section for some help. I've been flashing ROMs on my Captivate since they were available and am pretty familiar with how stuff works over there.
However, my girlfriend has an EVO 4G and I have her running on Cyanogen 6.1 RC1. Sprint just stood up 4G here in Miami, so of course she wants to get her $10 worth and wants 4G access.
I'm wondering what ROMs are compatible with 4G, and of those which would you guys recommend? I tried searching but you guys have WAY to many ROMs available (we only have 10 or so for the Captivate) and I simply don't have the time to read through all the features of every ROM.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Stick with the Sense-based ROMs. I'm a big fan of myn's warm and can confirm 4g works like a charm.

+1 Myn's Rom is overall a favorite Sense rom of mine. However it may not be for anybody, thread wise it is the biggest rom for the Evo. I have also used Fresh which also has 4g. I would say between those two you can find what she would like just read the OP for each rom.

+1 Myn's Warm. Been using it for about a week now and it is a truly amazing ROM. I have been thinking about trying others. Myn's and CM 6.1 RC2 are the only ROM's I've tried since getting my EVO 2 weeks ago. Pretty much any of the Sense Rom's are going to work with 4G. Any AOSP will not. Hopefully soon someone will figure out how to get 4G in a AOSP Rom because I really do love CM 6.1 nightlies. They have some unbelievable features.

Top ROMS!

I recently ROOT my EVO, so I want to know for those who has gone to varios ROMS what are the top 5 ROMS.
Me personally has ben looking for some Desire Z or Desire HD port, only for the Themes but don't know the names of the ROMS here, or or some Gingerbread ROMS but they are a lot of ROMS here, I;m comming from the HeroC...

Calkulin EVi0 2 best room (I just hate that animation color screen at boot) give me up to 12 hours of battery time.

im new too i just rooted my phone sunday i heard from some people that some roms and kernals are made for certain hardware. mines hardware 0004 is it true
thanks.

If you want to fall in love with your EVO all over again, I HIGHLY recommend MIUI. It is hands down the best looking and best performing ROM out there.

4g doesnt work on miui right

Nope, it's AOSP so no 4G or HDMI.

I think you will fall in love with the Azreal rom. I have been running it for over a month now with no issues at all. Good luck finding a rom that you will like.

The best rom for the evo right now is the mikfroyo 4.4 hands down. In terms of speed and customized features it is my favorite of all and mik is already working on
V 4.5 so for u its time to start flashing and enjoying your powerhouse that is the evo the way u suppose to. Happy flashing and have fun!

+1 in the mikfroyi 4.4. Makes me appreciate sense widgets.

Calkulin's EViO 2 ROM is by far my favorite ROM out there!

Sorry, I meant Konikub's themes.

NEED TO TRY ROMS: DONT GO WITHOUT AT LEAST 3 HOURS ON THESE.
myn's warm twopointtwo: insane themeing. blows your mind and other parts (hehe). fast, stable, just very themed and very feature inclusive.
caulkin's evio 2: incredibly fast. this dude is amazing. you will find his 'usb/wifi tether hack, reboot mod, mms limit/compression mod's in almost every rom out there. slightly themed to not look as fugly as the htc version, very good battery, extreme speed, etc etc etc.
ava-froyo z3: this man is quite a coder. he goes deep inside the rom to alter things never touched by other devs, including radio, 4g, memory management, etc. its a hit and miss for some phones, but gets amazing results on others.
cyanogenmod: vanilla aosp, the biggest project on the xda. built on many different phones, huge team, incredible changes, its like a whole new phone. you wont get the same results or features from any other phone on the market. no hdmi (claims its almost done) and FINALLY 4G (in alpha 2 testing, the code for 4g had to be totally rewritten by two guys. thats probably the biggest feat in this phone's history)
miui: a crossover aosp rom that looks almost like the iphone but with the functionality and customizability of android +100. infinite amount of features. this isnt really built on anything... everything is different. a brand new operating system pretty much. worth a flash. some love it, some (like me) dont.

I am currently using this ROM [ROM(S)]CM7-EX.v9, its pretty neat, still has a few minor issues but it's usable and yeah its Gingerbread. No 4G or HDMI.

Well put. I will +1 you on the CyanogenMod. Great stable ROM with tons of customizability and features out of wazoo.
I would also put in a recomendation foe Fresh Evo ROM by Flipz. Maintains a familiar Sense UI but has some nice performance tweaks and removes all of the bloatware. Also has full HDMI and 4G support. Just another simple and user friendly option for custom ROM that does not get too radical.

I like all the responses here and how members try to help, especially the 8th grade kid, lol.
I for one won't flash a rom where any of the features of the phone won't work, despite the fact of the great work all of those guys are doing to bring gingerbread to us, I applaud all their hard work. Whatever rom u flash, make sure u do a full wipe so u can get a clean install, do a back up or nandroid before u start flashing and read, read, read and keep on reading, that's the most important thing, get acquainted with any issues or problems that may arise with the roms u gonna flash so u don't panick and go all monkey if the phone freezes or whatever the situation may be. Finally be ready for the storm, flashing is an addiction hard to control.

My top five (which may not be your top five)
MIUI
Evoneo
vaelpak
burnt droid
Evio2
If I'm on a Sense rom, I use go launcher

I know this has already been said but I just have to agree with Cyanogen. The stable build (6.1.2?) is incredibly nice with plenty to do. On the other hand, Cyanogen7 (i.e. nightlies) are a bit more finnicky (still a superb work in progress). I used the stable build until I had enough courage (newbie myself to android) to start trying the night builds. I really dont want to go back to anything else now, not even the stable. Getting excellent battery life (intermittent tho), great look, very customizable. Def worth a try, if anything

Depends on what you want our of your rom. I tried many, but heres my personal experience.
I went with miui for awhile. Loved the speed and uniqueness. In the end missed everything working perfect.
Went to azrael for awhile. Fastest sense rom in my opinion. Highly recommend if you like sense.
Since I don't like sense, but want stuff to be fully functional, I'm currently on vaelpak. Very fast, great on battery, and the vaelpak settings app makes it very easy to tune to your liking.

Myns RLS5 Rom with Aloysius theme..... Sweet or CM7 nightly 13 with Mixer theme.... Awesome

which rom to use (first)?

finally got my Dinc2 rooted with the new software root but i'm having trouble deciding which rom to load up (first anyways haha) which ones have had you on the edge of your seat waiting for root/have been running like a dream since you got root for everyone? Also coming from the OG droid these rom files are HUGE! a big rom for my old phone was 80 MB but virtuous unity is 400 MB!!

Miui all the way
I think the file was only 90 mb(ish).

haha its funny you said that because that is the ONLY rom for the DINC2 that i know about. But i never could get used to it on my D1 so i don't think i'll start off this new phones hacking career with something I've already seen and didn't particularly like.

Virtuous Unity got an entire week straight on my phone before I went back to flashing again. Amazing ROM.

I think it depends on what you like. If you like sense then go with one of the debloated roms, or other sense roms. I've only loaded cm7 and had to go find some widgets to replace what I lost by leaving sense. It's pretty stable though and has great theme support. I'm not likely to go anywhere else soon.

Understandable
I always liked cm7 on past devices, but the sense 3.0 lockscreen is awesome.

MIUI is amazing. Best ROM I've ever used (so far).

MIUI has its followers but to me its too iPhone-ish. If you like CM7 or AOSP roms You should check out either OMGB or OMFGB by R2doesinc. Amazingly fast and stable with great battery life.

I just got mine s-off and rooted last night as well, I think for now I'm going to stick with the debloated one (RMK or whatever)for now. From what I can see majority of the custom roms have random problems like data, wifi, mms, gps, and other stuff not working. I'll wait for a little longer till the devs work out the bugs before jumping on them.

I run rmk's GingerSense primarily (stock debloated, although I'm not running the latest patch), but I dualboot it with OMGB as well. Love AOSP, but there's some things I use extensively in the stock firmware.

I went with OMGB since I really like my phone as stock as possible. So far, so good.

[Q] Looking for a particular type of ROM

Hey guys. First post ever here. I am looking for a ROM for my wifes Epic 4g that will include a completely stock ICS, but with all the touch wiz stuff.
For example, I am running ICSense Deck V.4 (Android 4.0.3 with Sense 3.6) on my EVO 3D. There is no indication that it is a custom ROM because it has such a stock feel, but still very smooth, and everything works.
So I guess I would be looking for something similar to what the E4GT recently recieved OTA. Anyone have any ideas?

The OG Epic 4g with keyboard will never have a stock ICS the only thing you might be able to do is theme it. If you are looking for a updated FC09 stock ROM with all the bells and whistles look at TPR (The Peoples Rom). The only ICS we can offer you is CM9 or AOKP I don't think there are any others if there are I apologies.

RemICS is what I think about. It's a touchwiz themed ics. It looks pretty stock but not stock for this phone originally.

[Q] Rom porting

New to the whole android rom thing. Been using my inc for awhile with a few different roms, there seems to be a lot of activity on here for support and upgrades. I also have a HTC EVO 4G that I ported to Pageplus. It is not active because most of the roms I tried were older and seemed to lack any support and they all had major issues, either performance or sound or data would not work. I am wondering, since the hardware seems to be pretty similar if I could port the inc roms or just use them on the EVO. Even better I wish I could rebuild some of the great roms on here for the EVO but I get lost reading all the different "How To" articles.

Ive had some success porting between two similar devices, but with the EVO, it might be hard because it use Sprint's wimax network which can create issues when porting. You can try by searching for one of the How To Port guides on XDA

if you want a good rom try evervolv
http://evervolv.com/devices/supersonic
im using their roms for htc nexus 1 & htc bravo, very smooth, both already have kitkat
the htc evo is only 4.2 JB but maybe they are working on 4.4 for it too

Thanks for the responses. Was hoping the Sprint thing would not be an issue since I was on Pageplus. My first attempt at porting would not load past the boot screen. I probably should not have tried the Evervolv 4.4 that is being worked on as my first attempt. I keep trying to use Evervolv on my inc but never really feel in love with it. I keep going back to Tiny's CM 10.1.
