Hi,
Thank you guys (and girls of course) for pushing the android experience more than just-another-smart-phone for the curious users.
I have searched a lot by moving around in this forum for last couple of days, looking for a cool ROM for my first ever (but not last, only the beginning) ROM upgrade.
I have read the wiki and have explored all the given links. But I couldn't find few simple answers. Please help me by answering my following questions-
1. Is there any list of currently available ROMs with pros and cons of each ROM? Is there any benchmark for stability, performance,supported features for all the available ROMs ?
2. What's there any matured stable 2.x.x ROM for HTC magic 32A which is not-slow and does well what it is supposed to do?
3. What's the pros and cons for older versions and newer versions? In another way of asking- why you developers still working on the 1.5 and 1.6 ROMs? Why not 2.x.x for HTC magic?
4. (lame question) Which of the ROM versions does have flash 10 (so that flash videos or files will work on webpages)?
Please ignore my lack of knowledge and enlighten me and other newbies as well.
Thank you very much once again
1. No but you may have a look at this.
2. Manup456's Eclair is what I'd go for. It isn't slow nor buggy but keep in mind that there are things that still don't work properly and probably won't until HTC or some operator releases an official 2.1 update for the Magic. You'll also need a port to install it on a 32A.
3. 1.5 and 1.6 have been officially released for the Magic while 2.xx hasn't yet. That means everything works as it should on 1.5 and 1.6. On 2.1 you get the new Android features but you lose some functionalities as well so it all depends of what you need and don't need (if you can live without camera recording and hardware acceleration you'll be fine). People also stick to some 1.5 ROMs because of SenseUI (there are a few 2.xx ROMs with SenseUI but none of them is really ready for prime time).
4. Flash 10 isn't available to us yet. There is a version of Flash Player included in the HTC Browser (meaning you need a ROM which includes the HTC framework) but it's not that great as it doesn't support the newer Actionscript 3/FP 10 Flash files. It can play Youtube videos though.
My personal advice would be to avoid 2.xx ROMs for the moment and to try a good stable 1.5 SenseUI ROM like Cursorsense or GyD... and if you then feel that 1.5 is too old you can try Amon RA's Donut or Ahmgsk's.
Hope this helps... you could have posted this in the general forum though
Are there any good roms for motorola cliq XT
I personally use Vanilla 1.2.3 that I found at M3 site, with the updates at SA site. Although it's not Android 2.1, I much prefer this build because of stability.
http://modmymobile.com/forums/559-motorola-cliq-xt-roms/557974-rom-vanilla-1-2-3-10-13-10-a.html
And you can find the update zip to 1.2.3 in a post by the DEV here:

Hope that helps!

It's stable now and that's the one i'm running and is very stable now thanks to the dev teams working on 2.1
Hi all, long time lurker here.
At the title says, I own a Korean original Motoroi, here in Korea on SKT. The current ROM I'm running is STSKT_N_79.33.50R .
Like some others on this board have noted in the past, this phone, with it's slower CPU, is an under-powered P.o.S. When I first got this last year it had a 2.1(.1?) ROM on it and in December last year Motorola graciously decided to release 2.2 for it. Anyway, I'm sure most of you already know that.
Upgrading this thing to 2.2 was like my friend's iPhone 3G when he upgraded it to iOS4: it was a slow, buggy mess, randomly locking up, rebooting and "losing" images on the SD card after talking some photos ("Can not write to SDcard" errors.) - among other things. To make matters worse, there seemed to be a huge bug in the Korean/English soft-keyboard that meant the input application would often crash during text entry.
Then, a few days after Motorola Korea released the 2.2 upgrade with all the above problems, they then seemed to pull it and reverted back to the old 2.1 version on their website. A few weeks later, they released 2.2 again, perhaps with those bugs fixed.... but with the same version number, thus preventing the updater program from updating MY phone to whatever version they have on the site now. Grrrr!
Anyway, enough of that long story, here are my questions:
1. What can I do with this phone now? I see a lot of custom ROMs here for the XT720 Milestone, but I know that it's a slightly different phone to the Motoroi... also, I've been led to understand that the Motoroi has a locked bootloader... right?
2. If I can re-flash roms on this... what custom rom would be suitable? There's so many versions here on this board that it's a little confusing. Also, what would be the procedure(s) to install it?
3. If there's no suitable custom rom here for this... can/how I re-flash this thing back to the stock, original 2.1 SKT rom? At least that was slightly faster and more stable than the 2.2 rom...
Well, one thing I can't complain about this was the price: I paid only 20,000원 for this on a 1 year contract spending only about 15,000원 a mouth. SKT were practically giving them away: I can see why, now.
TIA.
hello newbie here.......
i have the same problem before when i upgraded my motoroi to 2.2.1 , but i just found out that you can still root,overclock and use custom kernel...
- use superoneclick to root
- to overclock i use milestone overclock 1.4.2 version and setCPU
- if you want to use custom kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990735 and use raser_motoroi_boot.7z
- i also using this to replace bootanimation and fonts http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888379

here you guys go this guy made ROMS for motoroi, im not sure how well these work as i have not tried them. he has posted a bunch of them. the are for motoroi so you must start with motoroi firmware. and i cannot read his homepape as its in korean. so check em out. http://code.google.com/p/xt720/downloads/list

frozenroi works great on my motoroi better than KyuHyuk ROM but the problem is there is no sound on video recording even I try to call my mobile using my landline phone I cannot hear my voice only annoying noise.
Is there a way to fix this problem?

Thanks for the infos... how can I install these roms? I'm a bit of a newbie at this..
Also, I'm running the stock SK 2.2 rom, do I have to downgrade to 2.1 to install these?
My phone is already rooted using Superoneclick.

Hi there,i have installed bionix v 1.3.1 on my vibrant,and it looks and feels quite good,but since it was based on android 2.2,i started to search for other custom rom with android 2.3,and i found Cyanogenmod 7 RC1,i have flashed it,used for while,and honestly found it not as good as bionix v 1.3.1,because of poor battery life,weak gps performance,and i really missed swype and touchwiz,so my question is,can you guys recommend me some other roms(stable if possible,and with swype and touchwiz)based on Android 2.3,for vibrant.
Thanks a lot for reading,any advice will be great.

Hi,
I am new in Android World(Just 4 months). I have a SE X8i with 2.1 Stock ROM. I want to upgrade and also downloaded two ROMs after a lot of research work. Here I need to know that any of the ROM is fully functional? Fully means all device and features.
ROMs are:
1. GingerFroyoSuper
2. update-FroyoBread.v023b
I thing "update-FroyoBread.v023b" is not a stand alone ROM, it may need to be upgraded from Eclair.
