maybe a link to gapps? just flashed evervolv, like it better than cm from what i can see without all my apps lol, also i dont get 4g in my area anyhow.

Eh, guess its usually right under the download for the ROM, maybe not necessary, i just cant get to xda during the work day so now i have to flash back to kings till i get home lol
 
Thanks for posting this great thread. I was wondering about CPU tuning. I would like to underclock while the screen is off to save battery. I've been using Netarchy CFS more HAVS and getting good results with that.
I tried CPU tuner but didn't notice any improvement. Is setCPU worth the $2? Also, I think I read that you shouldn't use CPU tuning with a HAVS kernel. Is this true?

ok, call me silly, but where's the link to DL CyanogenMod7... i'm DL for the first time, what file do i need, there are alot to choose from on mirror site.. cannot find a DL link on it's XDA page... do i need cm_supersonic_full-12.zip or update-cm-7.0.0-RC1-Supersonic-signed.zip

slightly confusing for me... TIA

If you select the link for the direct download from my links it should bring you to the mirror site. I believe the mirror lists the newest releases at the top. CM7 is still on nightly releases so there's no official stable release yet. That's why you see so many versions for CM7. In theory the newest links should be the most stable.
 
You should add Ultimate Droid to AOSP roms. I know Cyanogen had some soap opera about not hearing a thank you or something, but it's uniquely different than CM, but retains alot of the things people love about CyanogenMod.
 
Thanks for this useful post Stechva, great idea. It's always good to have a reference to point new forum members to. The only qualm I have with your post is you have the link to download SetCPU for free on here. I know the Dev asks that people purchase SetCPU from the market or donate if they like in his XDA thread, but how many people actually do??? In your post, can you please refer them to the Market, or recommend forum members who download it from XDA to donate to the Dev if they like their work? At least that way, you've done your part.

And to take it a step further, that goes for the ROM's too. Forum members, if you like the Devs work and would like them to continue making awesome ROM's for us, please donate.

Keep up the good work Stechva!

Not to be rude but there is a link in my sig for the rom wiki that has all download links.

The majority of us know the location of XDA's ROM Wiki and how to get there, just like you can find rooting guides all over the internet. I believe the purpose of this post is to keep everything under "one roof" so it's much easier for new rooters to reference.
 
yeah i agree frenchy. it is nice to have it here on this forum for new and old rooters. plus that wiki is old and it has not been updated in awhile. and stevcha is good at adding anything new or suggested.

thanx stevcha!

Rom wiki doesnt have kernels, or convenient links to things like format all either. Rom wiki may be fine for people in the know but im more comfortable pointing noobs here because rom wiki is a catch all including uncommon & out of date roms.

Yeah thanks again. I have pointed many people to this thread, its very handy.
 
Made the update for SetCPU. Keep the suggestions and new roms and kernels coming guys. Thanks again for all the help!
 
Stevecha I need your help. I was going to flash my first rom but first I performed Calkulin's_FORMAT_ALL and after that I pressed reboot and it took me into the the fastboot menu. Where do I go from here?

Do you know what recovery you have installed? How did you root your phone?
 
unrevoked 3....clockwork mod.... I'm stuck in the fastboot menu... i've got 4 options:

bootloader
reboot
reboot bootloader
power down

you think i can power down and reboot into recovery?
 
What about adding the DESTROYER ROM... i'm hearing good things about it so far. Thanks for putting this together it really does give those of us new to rooting a place to search for more information and learn as much as possible. I will add a link.
 
Stevcha,

Nice list btw, I have a suggestion now. Since the list is growing, I would suggest doing a 4G list for sense roms and non 4G rom list. Maybe like a subsection. Do this also for AOSP roms.

I know sometimes for me, I won't flash a non 4G rom just for preference since I live in a 4G area. Other times I have that flashing bug and I'll flash anything:p

Just a thought:)
