For those that have used tablet mode on the note, what do you think of it? Is it worth the hassle of setting the rom up the way it needs to be? It looks cool, I have to admit that. But I have yet to find a rom that I really like, with minimal bugs, that supports it. I knwo there are a lot of...

I've been running and loving Ming 3.0 for a while now. Probably my longest running rom without flashing something else. But I think I've overloaded it with apps, as it's starting to have some boot loops and the web browser force closes a lot. Not knocking the rom at all though. I will most...

I love trying out all these roms that the awesome devs put out. But I really want to start messing with some themes. Both for a rom as well as for go launcher, which will likely be my preferred launcher. So I need help picking a good stable rom to work with. One that is a great daily driver, and...

I restored a nandroid of MikG 2.58 tonight. I was using widget locker as my lock screen when I was using the rom. When the nandroid was done restoring I could see my background and the notification bar, but there was no lockscreen. Not the original or widget locker. How do I get access to the phone?

I have been having issues not being able to restore my nandroid backups. Heck maybe I am doing it wrong, I don't know that I have ever actually gone back to one of my nandroids. But I have been trying lately, had problems with TWRP and Amon Ra. Currently on Amon Ra 2.3, when I try to restore it...

Which do you prefer and why? I am torn between a couple aosp, a couple 2.1/3.0 and a couple 3.5 roms. Having difficulty picking one for a daily driver. So I was hoping for some opinions and info about what yall are using and why you like it.

I have been putting off trying out this ROM, maybe cause is different, maybe cause its a bit to iPhone, IDK. But it was mentioned when I was googling about rom battery life, so I started reading about it. And while it seems like not a lot of people use it, the ones that do swear by it. So I...

I am torn between synergy(used RC1 before, haven't used RC2 yet), Kings Kingdom(I've used 1.3, and 1.6, maybe one other version) and kings alliance(haven't used this since 7.3/4). They all seem like great roms. I like the collaborative efforts, makes them that much better and faster updates...

I plan to use go launcher with pretty much any rom I choose. So I am wondering if there is anything I would be missing from sense if I chose CM7 instead of a sense rom. I will miss the lock ring for sure, as I found one that I could flash that fit in perfectly with my theme. But the better...

After reading Lock screen gestures on HTC EVO 4G AOSP ROMs help you save time I am wondering how many people use a lockscreen, how many use the gestures as shown in the article and how many use no lockscreen at all.

SO I have recently been shown the light, that being, how to root my Evo. And yes I too have become a flashaholic(Hi my name is Mike and I have an addiction...). I have been digging all these wonderful sense 3.0 roms available. Currently rocking Virus rom(I'm loving the green overscroll, and the...

I am rooted, and I believe I have the zip file containing all the goodies. The site I got it from said to put it on the sd card and run it using the recovery thing. That didn't work. I am now thinking I may have to just unzip the file to my sd card and put everything in place by hand. While I am...

I rooted my phone using unrevoked. FLashed to VirusROM Kingdom 1.3, which I am loving, great ROM. But i was trying to get back into recovery mode and its not working. What am I doing wrong? I shut the phone down. Hold down Volume down and press power, but the phone just boots normally into the...

My first question is, should I hard reset and start from scratch, or just fix what I already got. I got my phone on launch day, so it has a full years worth of crap on it. Its not noticeably slow, but then again maybe I am just used to it. I'm sure I have a lot of unused apps, which i could...

I downloaded the new HTC software update and it made all my widgets not load. Removing them and readding fixes it, and I got them all done except for 1. I can't remember what it was. Any way to figure out what it is? It's still on my screen, just says it has a problem loading.
