Root Roms pros & cons (Archived)

[xcelprinting.com]

With all the available roms, id like to know what are the pro's & cons of each, such as features, apps, and flaws, and "why" do you feel one rom is better over the other. Please be detailed, not just "this rom is the best".

Cleaned this thread up a bit.. Wouldn't want a perfectly good thread to go to waste because somebody was being rude, now would we?

With that being said, if you're not going to post something that contributes to the topic in a positive way, don't post at all.

Wow, really!

You know as well as I that these threads go no where.
No one can tell anyone anything about a Rom, without the person asking about said Roms trying them out first.
PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
SO TAKE YOUR HIGH HORSE AND HIT THE HIGH ROAD.

And by the way there was not a rude peice of text in my previous post.

Had you read my post you would see this was a request for pro's and cons, your response was clearly ignorant, then being a smart a$$ you post it a 2nd time...enjoy getting banned.

trident, you can delete my comment as well when you delete this moron.

Your useless and of no help to this community.

Gladly

Please choose one of the following:

1) We can drop you into a "Disabled" usergroup that does just that - locks the account down completely. This makes it unusable. However, the beauty here is if a user changes their mind it can easily be recovered.

2) We can "delete" your account. The vbulletin delete function removes the account completely, email association, etc. However it *does* leave all your posts in tact. It grays out the username attached to the posts and changes your title to "guest". So, all your posts are still in tact for the sake of conversation flow but the account is in fact deleted. This cannot be reversed. This option will require a "are you sure?" confirmation if you have any posts at all and once you say yes - we will do it. If you wish you hadn't requested it some time in the future.. bummer.

Wow seriously, grow up. Anyways, all fun and games behind us, back to the topic.

Pros and Cons.... hmm... Well here goes my ... erm... 2cents? It might not be Pros and Cons really, but atleast you get the jist, sorta... lol

DamageControl::
- My opinion, could be one of the best ROMs out, but heading in the ways of AOSP-like, theres lots of bug fixes (as well as other ROMs below, which are heading in the same direction, same bugs, etc...) EIther way, great ROM, fast, great battery life. Has ability to enable JIT. Also comes in 2 versions, odexed and deodexed versions. I personally had a few problems backing up my apps using Titanium Backup, but im sure it will get fixed in later versions.

EVOlution::
- Basically, this ROM runs "Froyo-life" due to the launcher and OverClock capabilities. You can flash a custom kernel to boost the performance. Bad thing is the cameras break when you OC. Otherwise, good, and fast. Cant say much for battery life, IMO.

BuglessBeast::
- The ROM im personally using at me moment. And to be honest, i LOVE it. SUPER fast loading time (after restarts and shut offs etc...) LOVE the new boot screen, and the CPU-hogless-custom-Nexus-like-Live Wall paper is awesome! I use ADW Launcher on top of it, but I love it. The lockscreen is great. Battery life is VERY usable. Snappy, and cant wait for the updates. (Oh and, loving the AOSP elements that were implemented. ^_^ )

EVO-NonSense::
- Kinda weird, actually. I Flashed this one to try it out, and I didnt get far. I got myself stuck on the "Setup Screen" so I reflashed bugless Beast ON TOP of this one, and it works great. Not quite sure if my phone would run any different, but combining both seemed to work just fine. ~.~

Fresh Evo::
- Another champ here. fast, snappy, loving the Fresh SenseUI. (Yes Im a fan of BOTH SenseUI and Vanilla Android) Very smooth, and good battery life. Had a few glitch restarts, but im sure those will be ironed out. All in all, Fresh is always a great route to go for stability and responsiveness.

Calkulin's ROM::
- Havent tried this one yet, but doesnt seem like TOO much has been added to it yet. Im sure people will look forward to this one as well.

Aloysius::
- Again, not 100% sure about this one, but I believe this one, like Bugless Beast, can run on top of other ROMs, but this one gives your ROM a make over, changing ICONS and Status Bar, etc... very nice tho, I must say.

BakedSnack::
- Tried this one for a few hours. I noticed my battery was draining quite quickly, and I had random reboots everyonce and a while. Again, could possibly just be a bad flash, but remember, these are my opinions. Looking forward to future updates on this one!

OMJ's HTC Evo ROM::
- Havent tried this one, but apparently VERY popular. You should try it yourself, if you havent already. ^_^


Im sure I missed one or 2, or more... lol but those are the main ones, I believe that are out so far.

Alright, I'm closing this thread and leaving it be for archiving purposes. It will be deleted after Roman G.'s request is fulfilled. I will confirm his account deletion via PM as opposed to a post in this thread.

I have copied the worth while posts over to a new thread so that it isn't cluttered. That new thread can be found here.

My sincerest apologies for any confusion and frustration this may have caused.
