Which ROM is better than the stock one?

I have received today my HTC ONE V (PRIMO U)
Instead of trying several ROM's, could anybody please recommend me a good ROM being updated/supported frequently?
Thanks

Thanks, I will try your CM10 ROM, although I have rooted and installed several ROMS in a samsung spica, and a sony Xperia ArcS, I have not very clear how to install your ROM.
Wipe Data, Cache, and system "OK"
Flash the ROM "It's the TEST13 file? is this done in the recovery, right?"
Flash GApps "is this done in the recovery, right?"
Download the boot.img "OK xD"
Flash boot.img in fastboot "I guess this one is not done in the recovery, could you please be a little bit more specific? what is included in the boot.img? it's mandatory?"
If I install this kernel it adds any apps/option in the ROM so I can change the OC to 1.2 or keep the default 1?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765687
Or in order to change I need to install a 3rd party app in google play?
Thanks in advance

boot.img is the kernel, mandatory.
In case you need commands
Settings>Performance has options for freq. control. But I think some app like "no frills" is recommended.

Ok but why I can't use the CM10 ROM with the stock kernel?

because there are settings in the kernel which are NEEDED to even boot CM10 and they are not in the stock kernel

[SOLVED] MIUI for JB updated HOX

Hello fellow XDA members,
I was wondering if there are any MIUI ROMs for an HTC One X which has already been updated to the JB ROM (and so has HBoot 1.36). I tried a few one, but none of them worked for me and maybe some of you know a work around.
It's not that I'm too lazy to search, I just want to be sure, since I've just rooted it last week.
Thanks in advance!

Are you flashing the boot.img as well using fastboot?
Apparently this one works on the latest hboot.

Yes I do. I also tried that ROM already, but I thought (I hadn't much time to wait) but I thought it got stuck on the bootscreen.
Thanks for the reply anyway!

The only MIUI ROM that I could get working on newer bases is MIUI.x ROM, but it's still on ICS, but a great ROM nonetheless.

Thanks for the tip. That one worked for me too! Only thing is that I don't like it's theme.
I ended up with MiuiAur, which worked for me! It is ICS Sense based and works flawlessly!

[Q] Why does some ROMs cause the phone to bootloop?

Hi guys,
I'm not very skilled in flashing ROMs, but I do it anyway every other day or so as am curious on what new ROMs can provide. I now longer panic when the phone get stuck at the bootscreen. Now when it occasionally happens I now have time to thinking about the reason for the bootloop - and that's why I start this thread
For some reason there are ROMs that I'm not able in install, like the official nightlies from CM 10 and Liquidsmooth RC9 - but I have no problems installing the "pure" Jellybean 4.2.1 (AOSP), TripNDroid CM 10.1 and Blade v4 (desensed) which I'm currently running.
Can anyone explain why some are able to boot on my HOX and some are not?
For your info, I'm on the Tegra 3 version using HBOOT 1.36 S-ON - Recovery is CWM 5.8.4.0
Thanks in advance.

I always do this - of course I can miss it sometimes. So I always trye reflashing if the phone get stuck in bootloop... But with the above mentiones ROMs I can't install them not matter what I do.

I think it may be caused by your hboot version: 1.36. You may need a special repacked boot.img to run some AOSP/AOKP/CM10 ROMs.

DO you Flash the correct boot.img ???

I always thought the hboot versions was backward compatible?
Regarding the boot.img -> then I alway extrat the boot from the ROM zip - and maybe that's the problem?

That is the problem. For example on official CM10 you need a special boot.img for higher hboots. See post #9308 in CM10 thread.

The fact of the matter is that most of the 4.2.1 based custom rom are compatible with HBOOT 1.28+ on the contrary to 4.1.2 based roms. For second ones U have to flash a special boot.img.

Ahh... that clears up some things. Thanks buddy! :good:
Talking about the boot.img file... Is there a sort of "all-round" boot.img that can be used for all ROMS?

No, such thing doesn't exist. Every ROM has it's own workaround for hboot incompatibilities.
And every ROM uses a different kernel so it would be impossible.

When you tried 4.1.2 ROM, did you flash a correct gapps? If you are using 4.1.2 ROM, then flash this gappsgapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip. Don't forget to FIX PERMISSION.

okay....here's the background situation i'm having...
1. i'm using 4.2.2 rom as i mentioned above
2. i'm trying to revert to 4.1.2 using the rom i mentioned above.
3. steps i take to deal with it are....
a. wipe data,cache in recovery
b. flash the rom
c. flash the gapps (as stated in the 4.1.2 rom OP)
d. reboot
is there anything wrong?mistake or incomplete step maybe.....thanks for your help.

If you are going to revert from previous ROM, wipe /system, wipe /data, wipe /cache. Flash ROM + GAPPS + Fix Permission. Confirm that keyboard is working now.

Your ROM based on Android 4.1.2 then kernel is for Android 4.2.2 means it won't work for you. BTW, you use Android 4.1.2, what GAPPS you are using?

[REQUEST] Can Someone Make a zip rom for MIUI

There was a released of MIUI rom for Nexus 7 2013.
You can find it here http://en.miui.com/thread-16879-1-1.html
I'm doubt if it supports using Multirom. A zip that is capable in normal flashing in the recovery.

It's funny that our Nexus 7 is specified as "Unknown Device" in the list. Anyway i'll give it a try in a while.
I've tried the normal version on miui.com today by flashing it, but I lose the recovery that I used to do the trick. There's no root pre-applied in the rom, you have to flash it on your own.
By the way the ROM works great besides some text still in chinese, and some other little things, anyway this MIUIv6 a complete copy of iOS 7, it even has the same notification sound!

no,miui is quite differrent,I have xiaomi mi2s which is running stock official miui.com,actually xiaomi is miui
they have 2 rom stable version and developer version,stable didn't have root permission,dev have root permission,we can disable root perms,or enable it anytime with dev version.
the unofficial from miuiandroid.com is dev version only,it basically miui.com rom but have more language then the official,and removed chinese apps,and other stuff,it's dev version only so it must have root permission,can enable or disable it also..
but that's for my xiaomi phone,not sure for other device but I think they'll be the same..cmiiw

you might use latest twrp because somehow root permission lose after flashing the rom,and with twrp we can install superuser to make it root

Hi, I flashed MIUI from the Miui web site on my Nexus 7 II and I love this rom. However, first I got a message that Gapp process had stopped. Now, the Play Store says no connection and I cannot download anything. Could you please tell me which gapps you flashed? Also, did I lose my TWRP recovery and root by flashing this ROM? Please let me know. Thanks.

do you full wipe it (factory reset,wipe cache,wipe dalvik cache) before install?
which one do you install,
miui.com (official)
http://en.miui.com/thread-16879-1-1.html
or muiandroid.com (multilang/unofficial)
http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/4-3-14.23776/
if miui.com I guess you can use this small gapps
https://www.dropbox.com/s/m8kny92fe4xd5qz/12-14_GApps_Core_4.4.2_signed.zip
if miuiandroid.com you can find link to download gapps in the first page of the thread
after install don't flash the gapps yet,reboot the phone and do the setup,after setup finish then you can flash the gapps,if you flash the gapps straight after flashing the rom,you might get errors,do this for both version,miui.com or miuiandroid.com.
root is lose if you install this rom but TWRP is not (I guess ),maybe they still trying to fix this,because as long as I know miui rom is prerooted so we don't have to root manually again,use TWRP recovery not CWM and root it from TWRP recovery,after flashing you need to update the super user before root permission can be used..remember to backup your phone before flash and clean install it with TWRP (factory reset,wipe cache,wipe dalvik cache)
