Have been wanting to flash a custom rom for a while (rooted with unleash the beast, I know it's ancient) on 2.1, had been planning on DG's Cognition (was just updated to 4.3), but also came across Continuum v4, which looks great. Was leaning more towards Cognition, figuring it'd be more stable based on KB1, but not hearing any complaints from people using Continuum. Any downside I'm wondering to going with Continuum, as it's I9000 based 2.2.1? Thanks.
Edit: Now may be leaning more towards Cognition now that it's been updated (I think it was the Continuum theme that was luring me in)
not sure about continuum but it may have refernces to a nonexistant camera being from the i9000. not sure but i think all the newer roms have that fixed. really the only downfall of i9000 roms is that some people claim the att roms have better call quality because they use a different method of noise reduction, im not sure if that is proven and i havent run an att rom in a while, i do notice having more problems hearing people than when i bought the phone but i didn't notice it imediately upon flashing an i9000 rom so it is not a good observation. but the i9000 roms offer hsupa (over rated unless you tether and open alot of webpages at te same time) and a bit better benchmarks and maybe a little smoother.
neither is a bad choice and cognition has all the important mods like voodoo sound and lagfix and various tweaks. and oc/uv if you want to do that sort of thing so it is not limited much by being an att rom.

Thanks for the advice. Yes, I think the AT&T version takes advantage of the audience chip for sound quality. Likely won't oc/uv, but looks like both have the ability to do so. Looks like both have the ability for lagfix with ext4.
As long as you've got the ROM flashing down, I would try several ROMS and stick with what you like best. Personally, I like Serendipity. No knock on any other custom ROM, but it's my personal preference. Happy flashing!
try out phoenix/firefly/supernova. all three are awesome man. really fast, super stable, smooth as hell, great battery life, gps actually works. the developers will help anytime they get the chance. which from what i've seen is anytime a question is asked. seriously really great roms.
I prefer i9000 based ROM to KB1 based ROMs.
KB1 is Android2.2 while i9000ROMs are on 2.2.1 now. I think 2.2.1 fixed some memory leaking bug.
Also I personally feel the i9000 ROMs are more polished.
My favorites are pheonix, supernova, and fusion. With firefly as number one backup.
I was wondering which rom/kernel combination is running smoothly without too many problems on the htc thunderbolt? Preferable something that runs pretty quick. Any opinions would be certainly appreciated
BAMF is the best ROM I have tried on TBolt. As far as the kernel, ithink it depends in your phone. Mine dies not handle UV/OC very well, others do. Imoseyon puts out great kernels and the stock kernels with BAMF by Adrynalyne arevreally mice. Both offer alot of variation.

BAMF 1.6.3 has been running great for me. It comes with its own kernel. You also get the 6 bar signal strength
VirusROM Airborne Senseless with Imosayon kernel... smooth as silk... just waiting for a ROM update...
CM7 is my daily driver. I have GPS, Wifi, 3g/4g hand-off works perfectly; I couldn't ask for more!
You could probably get a different answer all day long .
I'm running Liquid Thundersense 1.45 with Imo's 1.92x kernel (current 2.4.4 version) and it flies. No lockups or reboots here and good battery life. Yay!
yea im running bamf 1.63, no big issues, runs fast, runs well.

When you say that your phone "doesn't handle undervoltage/overclocking well," what does that mean? How does this manifest itself? Runs slow, runs hot, both? I've been experimenting with Imoseyon's kernels (latest version with the terminal emulator script) and Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3. Just wondering what I should look for.
^
Good question
I never tried overclocking to 1.6... 1.9 like other kernels out there. I use 4.4.3 - 1420/499
My phone runs fine
But I dont get that undervolted stuff
Running Vanilla Bean 1.2 w/ BAMF 4.3 Kernal (considering flashing leanKernal soon) and its been running really smooth so far. I am liking the lack of Sense of Vanilla Bean!

I just loaded my first ROM, Das BAMF remix 1.63, and so far, everything works great!
I rooted it a month ago, what a hassle that was. It took me all weekend to figure it out. I first tried using the Cyanogenmod Thunderbolt wiki procedure, but kept getting stuck because their wiki assumes you know all about ABD and how to use it, and there must be something crucial not listed in their step by step procedure. Anyways I tried another site, which had almost the same info, but different downloads, so I kept getting stuck there with more anti noob root steps, and finally gave up there. Then I found a 3 click root program on another site, and that got the whole thing rooted with s=off.
After all that rooting nightmare, I decided I would just wait for the Cyanogenmod 7 ROM, but weeks passed and it looked like the project was abandon, so I decided to try a flavor of the most popular ROM instead.
What I wanted the most was that SENSE stuff turned off, and all the bloatware removed. I read the BAMF ROMS are the most popular, and decided to give one a try, ann am now happy I did. One thing I do notice is the personalize button now opens a browser, but I actually like that better.
I like the 6 bar signal meter, the cool boot animation, and the new themes, and the GPS icon is now gone from the status bar. Still playing with it the check out all the features.

Hey, I got two questions. The first is whether you had the update that just came out a few days ago applied when you did this root method. The second is if you have a link to where you found it.
Thanx
Rooting... Bah! ROMS... Yeah!
When I rooted, I did not have the update. Other than the ROM i just loaded, I have not applied any updates since rooting a month ago, and here is how I did it: (remember, I know nothing about unix, linux, java, or anything other than BASIC)
First I tried this procedure, and stalled at step 9 of the downgrade procedure, but looking back I think it failed because at step 5 I had failed to gain temporary root, and I did not know that a change in prompt from "$" to "#" means temporary root. I still am not sure:
cyanogenmod thunderbolt wiki (I was spam filtered from posting the link)
Second I tried this procedure, but again, died at step 3 trying to gain the temp root "#" prompt:
androidpolice thunderbolt root thread (I was spam filtered from posting the link)
Then I found this easy root 3 step process, and followed it, and at first it did not work past step 1, so I copied the downgrade file from the cyanogenmod wiki, verified it's md5 checksum, and put it in the 3 step folder and it worked:
droidforums easy-root-available-3-step-process (I was spam filtered from posting the link)
Now remember that all these procedures have been updated since tax day weekend when I did the mod, but it was a total 2 day nightmare that I would never want to endure again.
The problem is that each new term I encountered took a couple hours of web research to find out what it means and does. This is my first phone, and terminology used is totally alien to me.
Now that I have this new BAMF ROM installed, I am liking the phone a lot more. Just like I enjoy customizing windows 7 on my desktop, I have just discovered the same thing is do-able on the phone.
edit, looks like I am spam filtered from adding the links...

Tesla Coil is very good but doesn't seem to be actively updated.
I have been benchmarking all of the ROMs and kernels (well only 2, BAMF and leanKernel with each flavor) to see what has the best performance. Maybe I will share the spreadsheet someday. Currently testing CM7.
I have used Perfect Storm and BAMF. I prefer Das BAMF because it is simple, relatively light, but packs a mean punch with some of the added features.
The Adrynalyne kernels work great, but I get a little better battery life from Imoseyon's LeanKernel. I am currently running Das Bamf 1.6.3 and LeanKernel 2.5 with custom undervoltage.
I think its crazy how different each TB is with how it responds to kernels, ROMs, radios, voltage, etc. But I am very happy with what I have now, and the undervolting has given me more battery life!
I was using Bamf Stripped v 1.1 until I flashed the gingerbread rom, I absolutely loved it.
My sig says it all. Put your cursor on the details for links to the goodies

Wsa getting real crapy bat life on bamf 1.6.3 but think it was because I didnt clean and wipe between updates I just cleaned wiped and did it again seems to be working fine. Im on stock bamf6.3 kernel gonna give it a couple days then I mnight switch.
Ive run bolth this week and tried all the diffrent rom and kernel combos im running gingeritis with dream kernel 2.0.2 what are you guys running and what have you like abt each rom and what havent you.
i've run the froyo bamf and gingeritis and i have to say that gingeritis is a much better rom. Butch and Mik are both crazy amazing rom crafters but from the way both roms work i see that bamf roms are a bit advanced for my liking, gingeritis has the right amount of stock apps and extra apps installed on a clean flash and allow me to use the superuser from the market without and hassle.
I love both roms but my preferance is mik's roms and right now gingeritis is where i will stay until i feel i want to move to CM7. I think everyone should be working towards getting to know your thunderbolt and slowly working their way to CM7 by trying out different roms and learning adb, fastboot, cmr, and theming
Theoryofginger is making some serious headway with users may take a look at that.
Gingeritis is excellent but the transparent pull down can be difficult to read at times.

+1 for Gingerth3ory. I downloaded the 4.0 test build and it is rock solid, quick and pretty good battery life for Gingerbread. I've flashed many roms and this one is my current favorite.
I've tried th3ory as well but I seemed to have quick battery heat up on that Rom I'm not sure why but I've noticed my phone getting allot hotter lately can't figure out why
I was on the froyo Bamf since it came out. Went Briefly to BAMF GB and personally it was buggy (and to a point still is). No disrespect to butch, I heard he go injured on the job and his hands are full.
Gingeritis I waited until the final came out and went with the same dream kernel. For me it has been problem free, much like BAMF's froyo rom. Not as many bells and whistles, but it is stable.
My final decision was based on reading the last few pages of each roms posts, seeing what the main complaints were. You can do the same and see if those complaints you can live with or is too much to deal with. Either way both ROMS are basically beta's, so there will issues until the official GB release comes out.
i would have to throw in bamf3.0 preview4 it is by far the best rom i have ever ran, just wipe 3x before installing. sense 3.0 is beastly, you should definitively take a look at it. i have tried other roms out but i always end up back on bamf
Another for Gingerth3ory. Loaded the 4.0 release last night with the Rapist kernel and enabled the ability to drop to 184MHz... Battery life so far is the best I've seen so far, and the whole system runs silky smooth. (I was running the beta of gingeritis until I switched to th3ory 2 weeks ago)
+1 Bamf
I'm on Bamf 2.0-5, and haven't found a reason to switch out yet. Fast, Stable, and only one major bug at this point (sometimes recharges slowly until you restart).

Honestly if you try all the GB roms, they all buggy. I liked remix GB the best though was as quick as Gingerbean and gingerbean IS LEAN and pretty sensless so thats an achievement by BAMF to say the least. Those are the only 2 I liked. Have not tried theory yet but been reading on it alot.
They all buggy though I can't stay on GB... everytime i flash its cool for like first day or 2 then weird **** happens. Phone always runs hotter and battery is just unpredictable.
I test the BAMF 2.0.5 and Remix to , now i run Liquid Gingersense v1.1 with Nerozehl's dreamKernel 2-0-3 meantime best result and very stable
I've tried both and frankly everything else and I always go back to Gingeritis.

Gingeritis with Neo's latest, running Rapist extreme mod = win.
BAMF GB pr4 for me and it works like a charm understanding there are somethings that are still being worked on. Can't wait for pr5 which I hear is being built with a new base from the ground up so keep your eyes peeled back for that one peeps.
I personally run Gingeritis over BAMF because of the transparent market and auto-rotate toggle within the status bar. miss the bamf toolkit tho
Okay, so here's my situation. My Droid 2 had a physical keyboard failure, so I had to get a replacement (yes, I stock recovery'd mine before sending it back). So, now I have new stock Droid 2, but it's been awhile since I've rooted/ROMed it. I'm still capable of doing it, but not sure what is good these days. I was running Fission 2.5.7 Black Edition. I was looking through the forum and it looks like Gingerbread was leaked, but there are no custom ROMs for it. I assume this means Motoblur would still be there and it would still be full of bloatware? I'd like to run Gingerbread but if i can only have it with Motoblur, then I'll wait for a custom ROM. If this is the case and I have to wait, do you guys suggest just going back to Fission 2.5.7? Or how does Liberty compare? Any others I'm unaware of?
Leave your suggestion and a reason why. Greatly appreciated!
I've been running Fission since the beginning of times. It's been solid for me and it is a good choice. Sure GB leaked but never felt the urge to try it. CM7 is being perfected as we speak and I will for sure try it out. It's been acclaimed as the best ROM for a reason.
Go for Cyanogen, it now has official nightlies, and I have been running it for about a week. The only issues left with it are incredibly microscopic, i.e. to connect to a computer, you must plug-remove-plug.
It is also the only ROM with all the Moto stuff completely removed (the other ROMs deeply hide it, IIRC), which is a major plus. Don't be alarmed that you must flash it from Froyo, that is related to the bootloader, but the ROM itself is Gingerbread.
So you can flash a GB ROM on top of Froyo build? Or at least in this case?

For CM yes, and you have to be on Froyo. The kernel was updated with the Gingerbread leak, and the 2nd-init method used to take over the bootloader doesn't work with the updated one, only the Froyo one. Here is an article on how it works by one of the main guys responsible for bringing CM to the DX.

If you're a fan of stock (aka vanilla, aka blurless, aka nonbloat, aka....awesome) like Fission gave us in 2.2, I'd suggest flashing Apex 2.0. They made it release candidate up from beta last month, and I'm in love. There doesn't seem to be alot of fanfare about it. I would have thought that since there was such a fan following of stock fission, and he's decided to drop the D2, that people would be all about it's "sister", Apex. Stock GB, you can't get any cleaner. Sure CM7 and Liberty have some extra tweaks, but if you're a barebones guy, Apex is the way to go. Here's the link on droidforums.net
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/ap...v2-0-0-release-candidate-rc2-6-12-2011-a.html
I was running Fission but was frustrated at the lack of updates and GB. I've been running Liberty GB 0.8 and have been pretty happy with it. I am curious about Apex and may give that a go at some point.
Thanks for the replies everyone!
I decided on Fission for now (2.6.1 I think) Black Edition. Just a version up from what I had before, but i gotta say I love Fission! I think I'll just keep this until CM7 is official. Considered giving Apex a try, but it seems like CM7 will be right along here so I can hold out until then.
Hey guys, been a fan of XDA for years, infinite amounts of knowledge here it seems, and I know nothing. While I could spend years reading all the posts and searching, I figured some of the more knowledgable members may be able to answer a couple quick questions without giving me TOO big of a hard time.
I have had my G2x for about a year which is running 2.3.4, March 2011 baseband. I used to own a G1 and a Motorola Cliq and had experimented with rooting it. I am looking for something new and different, as I'm kind of sick of regular old GB. There is so much knowledge here, and on some ROMs 100's of pages of stuff to read, which unfortuantely most of which I find confusing. I know nothing about baseband versions, radios, etc. I plan on researching a lot of these things, as thats obviously the only way to learn.
My Fiance and I both have the G2x, and are both needing to be hard reset and they're running slowly and the battery seems to be draining faster and faster. I planned to do a hard reset this weekend, but figured I may experiment with rooting and custom roms. If you guys can answer some questions for me, I'd greatly appreiciate it! I know that all this information is likely out there, although I feel completely lost and overwhelmed, unsure where to begin. I had the following questions.
If I decide to root the phone, and try different roms am I always able to "unroot" the phone and bring it back to factory just as it is now? Is this general rooting guide good for 2.3.4? Can I root without loading a custom Rom? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594650
I had been noticing that with Hellfire Sandwhich, and EaglesBlood there are some known issues, like bluetooth I believe, but I'm having a hard time seeing what isn't working currently. I would like to try ICS, but want something stable where I'm not going to experience a lot of programs not working. I don't do a lot on my phone but would like all the little things to work. How would I find "current bugs" or something similar, as there are hundreds of posts I can't seem to find the information.
Is there a certain rom that most people recommend for ICS that is more stable, possible CM?
How common is it to completely brick your phone, if you're not an idiot and follow instructions?
I was told when I bought the phone that it would receive ICS OTA, but this seems debateable. Am I better off waiting to see if this happens, or what do you guys recommend?
I'm sorry this seems like a stupid post, and that I haven't done any reading, because I have, I'm just confused as hell. I REALLY appreciate everyone's help! I've always enjoying messing with phones, although there is just too much to it with Radios, baseband, kernels, all of which I know nothing about, and mean nothing to me at this point. THANKS guys!
That guide will work for you. The good news is that the G2x is close to impossible to brick (it can be done, but definitely takes some talent). NVflash can be used 98% of the time to fix your phone.
As far as ROMs go, you have to experiment. Every G2x is different, and handle different setups differently. With that being said, Kwes's rooted stock ROM fixed a lot of the problems I had with my G2x. If you're bored with stock, most CM7 based ROMs are very stable. As far as ICS goes, Genesis was always my favorite, and the most reliable for me. I recently started playing with Paranoid Android CM9, and so far it works great, and provides a really unique experience.
Just read the first few posts of every ROM and it should provide you with most of the information you need to make a good decision. Hope this helps, and happy flashing!

I've tried pretty much every ROM available (save for quite a few GB ROMs and two JB ROMs), and I feel that the CM10 Paranoid Android is the smoothest ROM available. Every ICS ROM is smooth when you first install it (and I especially love all the features in Domination and Genesis), but after a week or so of use, your phone will start lagging again. With PA, lag is at a minimum. I was on CM9 PA last before getting sick of lag before switching to a GB ROM for a month or so, then decided to finally try out CM10 PA because I just missed flashing new ROMs and I was very impressed. CM10 version runs WAY better than CM9.
I just rooted my phone about 1 week ago and used the guide that the OP posted..everything worked great...I'm currently running hellfire 2.3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420972&highlight=hellfire+2+3) and freaking loving it...sooo much better than stock...basically follow the directions from the thread you posted and you'll be fine...
It depends on how important it is to you to have good picture quality with your phone. Even though this phone doesn't have the greatest camera, the stock camera is the best. If you flash to a CM ROM the quality is horrible. I love the performance of CM, but the camera quality was a deal breaker for me.
I ended up trying some stock 2.3.3 roms, but I have ended up back on my rooted stock running 2.3.4 with some tweaks from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1806868&highlight=tweaks and I am running faux's 14b2 kernel. With these two things my phone runs really good.

That's the one. It's no less buggy than any ICS ROM if that's the flavor your going for. CM10 is smoother than CM9. At least in my experience. Does anyone else want to chime in?
The only thing that took me back to CM9 was the battery drain issue on CM10.
On a different note: my phone only likes stock ROMs, but I recent found out about Weapon a New Clip, and it is pretty sweet, and just as reliable as anything else I've ever used

CM10 Paranoid looks soo beautiful and I'm really tempted to try it out, but I have a really good thing going on right now with the hellfire...it's super stable and smooth plus I have a ics theme on it so that keeps things fresh for me. I do have one question for those on CM10 Paranoid. Is it stable enough that you can run the 4.2 gapps or any themes/launchers on it??

I know I tried it. Not a whole lot of difference. I had my wife's stock g2x to do a side by side comparison. I was hoping it would be better.
Unrooting and bringing back to stock.
Hey guys, I rooted my phone and installed Hellfire sandwhich about a month ago. The rom seemed to run good at first, and progressively get slower. I just picked up a Nexus 7 and have no desire to run custom roms on my phone anymore as the tablet has all the bells and whistles, therefore at this point i want to bring my phone back to original condition.
I used this guide to root my phone - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1594650 and installed HFS from there. I am looking at threads to unroot and some of them are using ADB. The first thing that I did is to load my Nandroid backup from when I oringinally rooted my phone, and I am receiving the message saying "Checking MD5 sums...MD5 mismatch!". I have gone to this thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114, but I am unable to access my phone via ADB, as it's saying "Error: Device not found". I have tried to boot into CWM and plug the phone in there, but appears that all my drivers are not loading - http://puu.sh/1JH8J and it's still saying device not found. I have tried enabling USB debugging, as well as turning it off. When I plug the phone in, I only have the option of "Media Device (MTP)" or "Camera (PTP), no "charge only" option under "USB Computer Connection".
I am unsure what to do at this point. I have installed the "LGUnitedMobileDriver S4981MAN38AP22 ML WHQL Ver 3.8.1" drivers and still receiving the same error. Sorry if this has been addressed, as I'm sure it has, but can someone point me in the right direction. Thank you!

I have tried to boot into CWM and plug the phone in there, but appears that all my drivers are not loading - http://puu.sh/1JH8J and it's still saying device not found. I have tried enabling USB debugging, as well as turning it off. When I plug the phone in, I only have the option of "Media Device (MTP)" or "Camera (PTP), no "charge only" option under "USB Computer Connection".
I am unsure what to do at this point. I have installed the "LGUnitedMobileDriver S4981MAN38AP22 ML WHQL Ver 3.8.1" drivers and still receiving the same error. Sorry if this has been addressed, as I'm sure it has, but can someone point me in the right direction. Thank you!

Have you tried this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274 and unroot with SuperOneClick or whatever.
OP have you tried an MIUI based ROM? That's always been a bit of a different experience for me.

I have tried this, and that's when I'm receiving the "Checking MD5 sums...MD5 mismatch!" error after choosing to restore.

I've tried pretty much every ROM available (save for quite a few GB ROMs and two JB ROMs), and I feel that the CM10 Paranoid Android is the smoothest ROM available. Every ICS ROM is smooth when you first install it (and I especially love all the features in Domination and Genesis), but after a week or so of use, your phone will start lagging again. With PA, lag is at a minimum. I was on CM9 PA last before getting sick of lag before switching to a GB ROM for a month or so, then decided to finally try out CM10 PA because I just missed flashing new ROMs and I was very impressed. CM10 version runs WAY better than CM9.

I'm sick of gingerbread!
I want sum different. I've had eaglesblood 2.3.4 for years on my g2x and I have tried
Hellfire - works for a while then stuff goes wrong after a wk or so
Tried ICS - stuff is always wrong
On MIUI - and simple stuff is not working after days
I have been flashing phones for a very long time and all the ROMs above I have flashed over n over again and the fact still remains. They DONT Work!
I'm about to flash my eaglesblood back because that's the only thing that works the longest wit no bugs.
is there anything available besides eaglesblood that's stable?
geesh!!

I think Marie Antoinette said, If they don't like Gingerbread then let them eat cake, or something similar.
