So after a s-off and and root established, a flood of devs posted there [WIP] ROMS up. So which one did you choose and why?
I know most of you chose a rom based on the dev and their history, but for me im new to the evo line, so im kind of clueless to which rom to choose.
I just chose shooter rewind just cuz it seemed to have more in it. but i'll be flashing others to try them out. =]
Right now im using Viper's RC1.. waiting for CM
I will try some but like Mastajeff I'll be waiting for CM7
Right before I left my Evo, I flashed Synergy Rom and was very impressed. might give them a try before CM.
Evo Zone - cause I love the blue in it
I think a lot of people are waiting for cm, I heard toast is going to be maintaining it =]
in the meantime im going to enjoy sense. =\
If history repeats itself, it may be a while before we have a fully functional CM ROM. As much as I'd like to get back to vanilla android, I think I'll be better off with a Sense-based ROM for now. I'm hoping the flipz gets Fresh ROM out for Evo 3d soon.
I'm using Viperboy's RC1. Viperboy seems to have some good plans for his roms, looking forward to them.
I'm looking forward to mik 3d, our whatever he will call it.

Root just came out and I'm pretty amazed at how many roms are out already. Glad I kept my 3D!
Quick question....anyone using Rom Manager? If so, how is it?
I tried synergy but went back to stock for now. Man I miss landscape sense that was on the og evo synergy. It seems like all the roms are stock just optimized. I know it will change..current waiting for flyer port from virus.
Currently on Viper since I wasn't really familiar with the other ones and the name just sounded sick so I had to try it. I do have an issue when google resyncs my apps some don't install and says insufficient space in my device when I still have 800some mb left. I just used titanium to restore them back in. Other than that its been great. quick boot up even with battery pull compared to stock.
But now Mik is working with Chogardjr and released a custom rom. I used Mikfroyo on my Evo 4g and loved it so I'm going to their new rom next.
Kudos to all the devs!
waiting for cm7 or miui
Patiently waiting for CM....
After using CM7 on both my Hero and Gtab, I'm actually enjoying the stock Sense rom so I'll probably give ViperROM a try.
Im gonna try a bunch and find out which one I like them most, right now I am running viper.

Looks like flipz made the switch and has started deving for the Evo 3D. Got this email a little earlier. So to everybody who loved Fresh ROMS on the Hero & OG Evo, we should be getting a 3D flavored one soon:
Hey Evo 3d users!
I have finally found the time in life to create Fresh for the Evo 3d. I will keep this email short and sweet.
Change log / info: http://--------------------------- please post any questions or issues on the site. The md5 for the download is on here too.
Download: http://-------------------------------
If you aren't a 3d owner, or not even an HTC/Sprint owner anymore then you don't need to worry about unsubscribing. I will be transitioning to a different contact method very soon where donors can just check my website for updates as opposed to me mass mailing everyone. So bear with me just a little longer.
Thanks as always,
-flipz

Yeah I'm downloading now. Will report back how it runs, though from his previous work, I know it will be good. Fresh ROM was the first ROM I ever ran on the Hero and actually introduced me into the world of Android custom ROMs and if I'm not mistaken it was the first custom ROM we had for the OG Evo. Or at least the first one that I remember. Good to see him onboard for the 3D.

Ha ha got the email yesterday too it looks like finally he was able to make it happened
heres the site where non donators/testers can follow the progress if they want while its still in testing btw.

well yes but the thread is closed :/
just went onto review.cyanogenmod.com (their gerrit) and there's not a public branch for shooter that I could find.
That's where I used to always go on heroc when I was wondering what new commits there were.
Sad there's not a public branch imho.
sorry OP for the off topic

yeah just noticed that. Only thing I can think of is toast got tired of the bs that was going on in the thread as it had been cleaned up 2x recently b4 he locked it.
Assume hes still cracking away at it and is just waiting to get through the current bugs before reopening it and putting up a new revision.
hes still cracking away at his kernel branch for it so itll only be time before the master gets it complete and worked out. the guy is too dang good at this. lol

I've been running Fresh since lunch today, and so far it's as good as any other rom I've tried. Very stock looking.
Haha that's pretty awesome.
Before I knew what I was doing, Fresh was the first and only ROM I used on my first Android phone.. the EVO 4G.
I modified and tweaked that thing to perfection. Glad to see flipz in action.
I think the closest thing we have to Fresh right now on the EVO 3D is SteelROM, which reminds me a lot of Fresh.
No hideous theming, no bloat, no random bs that breaks various features on ROMs. We need more of that around here!

If only more devs went this route, alot of roms out there have broken features that org came w the phone and wont fix it, too busy themeing the roms.

I also got the email yesterday and after the success with his ROM on my OG Evo, I downloaded it immediately. I have been running this since yesterday afternoon and have had no issues. It is running very smooth, not that I expected anything different.
I have had the 3vo for quite a few months now, and think that the time has come to finally root and flash some good stuff, but was wondering what would be the best rom to flash. I know that its better to try out a couple to see which one suits me best, but I would like to skip all the hassle of experimenting with many roms, and just go straight to the ones that others are using and are happy with. So what rom are you all using, and would you recommend that over the rest? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. I should have mentioned this before, but its cdma.
I don't know if your gsm or cdma but from the gsm side of things I have tried most. Leedroid is always the one I come back too. It's stable has loads of support and great tweaks thanks to Jan and daniels and also some good theme options. The best imo.

thanks for your input. Unfortunately, I own a cdma Evo 3D.
Fair play. From what I've seen ported miui or joelz ROM look awesome!
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using XDA App
If youre looking for a great "Senceless/ASOP" rom.... MIUI
a great full featured closer to stock looking Sence 3.0 rom.....Wildshooter or CleanRom
a great tweaked and themed rom.....Warm 2.3 is the only way to go
or a great Sence 3.5 rom....JoelZ's Prime XL 3G
of course, there are more choices but these IMO are the best hands down and of course others will have different opinions
Fresh 4.0.6 is a great daily rom. Very close to stock with some extras but runs without issues and fully functioning.

I've tried a bunch and I really perfer Olympus Trinity XE... here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327237
It's got a lot of awesome stuff built in like beats audio and sony bravia hd..
I like mine with a blue zeus theme instead of the default red but if you follow the instructions to flash it, everything will work.. don't skip out on the instructions tho because everyone who skips the wiping the cash and data parts because they think they are too smart ends up having troubles later.
Thanks a lot for your input. This sure narrows down the list. I will try them out and see which I like best. From what I have seen MIUI looks awesome, but the camera isn't functional, which is something that really comes in handy this time of the year.
This is mainly for people that have had an Android for a while.
Just curious to see what dev('s)/team everyone is hoping to see release some goodies for our newly freed phone.
I heard team bamf has a rezound as well as virus and team, also bunch of devs from the Inc.
Also are you more interested in sense based or sense less roms?
Personally I'm hoping for the zeus mod that was done on the Tb. For the life of me I can't remember who originally created it.
I'm looking forward to an aosp Rom. With that being said there are going to be some good sense roms too.

Check out boreds RezRom. I am sure it will be stable and fast.

I would love to see some AOSP ROMs.
I have also wanted to give a shot at making my own ROM.. I am thinking of attempting to port the latest CM7, but that might be beyond my current skill level...
At least we have a working recovery now, so I'm a lot less scared about bricking my phone while I learn what I'm doing...
right now i will be really happy with cm7
Looking forward to anything from chingy or newt.

Virus did some good work on original evo but I'm looking for aosp goodness.
Being that my last HTC phone was the great HD2, I would love to see an NRG Rom port. Those roms were da bomb!!
nils all the way; his stuff was the most stable on the Inc out of everyones. but as of right now, i'm enjoying how sense 3.5 is themed, so i'm holding off on unlocking and rooting for a bit
Right now I'm just really looking forward to CM nine. I'll be super excited if I can get all my android devices on the same ROM.
Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk. Forgive autocorrect.
NilsP's BGS 3.5. was my final daily on the Inc before I upgraded, and it was the best ROM that I had the pleasure of running on my Inc. Nils had several features in there that I sorely missed after I upgraded. I can't wait for the Business Gingersense or the Business Ice Cream Sense goodness to make it our way.
I'm also looking forward to see if Warm 2.3 makes it our way. Warm 2.2 and Warm Z for the Inc were two of my favorites from the Froyo days. Hopefully Myn and Team Warm "bring the heat" to the Rezound.
Very exciting time for us and our newly unlocked and Rooted phones

Comming from the 3d (thank god), hoping for some aokp, asop and some thing special from Joelz and team pokemon. Pumped about this.phone.
I want to see it all!
MIUI, CM9, AOSP
Some nice sense variations, hoping to have tons of themes for this phone as well, that's something that was seriously lacking on the 3D. We had a few people making some really nice themes, but I was spoiled by the OG Evo.

At least you can see other answers. Basically, go find an Evo user who upgraded to the LTE and ask them what ROM they were using, that will be their answer to your question.
mean rom on the lte!!!!!!!!
Mikg 3. Loved it.
One ROM i ran a lot on my past two phones were the roms by kushdeck. I like that they were basically cm based without a lot of the bloatish aspects.
As for sense i ran the mikshifted roms on my evo shift.
I ran a kushdeck aosp ROM on my 3d, loved it. Hopefuly he'll do the same for the LTE

Hey everyone, I just upgraded from the HTC EVO 4G to the HTC EVO 4G LTE and am wondering what peoples opinion is on the fastest, cleanest ROM. I'm not really looking for any super cool skins or anything, just a clean fast ROM. Do you have suggestions? Thankz
Try MeanBean, it sets the standard that all roms should follow.

MeanBean for myself and I have done it for the rom I saw getting updated the most in ICS and it was MeanRom so when I took the leap to root my Evo I knew it would be MikeyXDA roms.
Tranquility JB, You can get it over at the mik forums, You will NOT find a smoother more stable rom.
BadSeed custom ROMs,,,,,,
Just Sick !!!

Been there. Just ran it for about a week. Its not bad by any means, but its not MeanBean.
I've tried every Rom there is for this phone.
Another strong vote for Mean Bean. Mikey's the best.

thanks for the responses guys, with my first HTC EVO (loved it) I installed a bunch of ROMS and went with MikFroyo in the end and it was great...I just don't want to install and test a bunch on this one. I'll take the advice given here - if there's anything else I need a a heads up on feel free to share.
Surprised no one mentioned CMX. Definitely one of the fastest. Meanbean or CMX
