Hi all!
I,ve recently updated to ics and rooted my transformer. Now, I´m thinking about flashing a ROM, but I don´t know what ROM works better on it. I´m considering flashing Revolver (the ics version beta 1.2) or the Android Revolution HD 3.0.1, but its the first ROM I flash and I am not pretty sure.
Could you guys tell me your opinion about these ROMS?. Which works better?
Titanium backup is your friend. Try different ROM to see what you like.
I say try the EOS ROM
You really just need to read the bug lists and the threads for these ROMs and make a decision on your own..try them all, then decide. FWIW, the devs who create these ROMs are members here and I dare call them friends (or close associates) of us all and one-another, therefore it's impolite to ask 'which is better' if you catch my drift. It's like friends comparing who makes more money...it's just generally impolite IMO. But, that's just my opinion
Stick around for a while and you might just be able to call them 'friend' one day too
Definitely try them out.
Back in October when I first rooted I was swapping back and fourth between Prime, ARHD and Revolver.
In the end I settled on Revolver for a few reasons. I have many other TF users who settled on one of the other builds for a different reason.
ARHD and Revolver for ICS are both excellent. I will say you will want to do Revolver 4.0.0 Beta 1.3 and then update to 1.3.1 vs. just using 1.2.
Just back up your system with Titanium. THen do a full wipe in CWM and install a ROM. Play with it for a while, then try another (with a wipe in between).
I am currently rockin out the TeamEOS Cornerstone ROM. Not as stable as Revolver or ARHD, but I love the multi-tasking.

Try them all! It's really easy to flash. Takes literally 4 steps.
1. Download ROM, check MD5 sum
2. Superwipe
3. Flash using Clockwork Mod Recovery
4. Reboot!

Wow man I know the feeling Been trying to fix it all day. I had to end up taking it to Computer specialist and hopefully by tommorow will come up with a solution. My problem is worse than the people that can up with solutions becuase the retarded 5.5 version of CWM in combination with Cm9 doesnt allow adb or cold booting. So you cant push adb because when you connect the prime to any comp with the drivers installed It doesnt allow the comp to communicate with the tablet. All becuase I didnt have the latest touch paid CWM and all started after I made my nandriod last night.
If anyone has any info please let me know.

Lately every time my wife exits any program on her EVO Shift, the screen shows the loading.... message and then the home screen refreshes. Any ideas on what could cause this? If you reboot the phone it seems to fit for a little while.
Root it and install a custom rom. The update had the memory settings way too aggressive. So glad that I don't have that anymore, that sucked so much.
So this is a known issue?

definitely a known issue for unrooted shifts. If she does not want to root, uninstall unused apps, limit the use of widgets on the homescreens, download a cache cleaner from the market (for a 1 click clean), and reboot phone when misbehaving.

She will definitely love her phone again. And once rooted, I recommend SSV5 and Mikshifted G 1.6 if she likes that SENSE look
I reccomend Mikshifted-G1.6, other wise if she doesnt mind somethign new try the newest nightlies build 209, its awesome and stable I havnt tried the newer ones, but so far this build alone is amazing.
My personal opinion, it doesn't bother me that much. I'm never in a hurry to do anything. I can wait for GB (GingerBread) full root. And you can bet as soon as I hear of it, hello custom roms (my choice will be a MIK rom). But if your wife can't stand it, full root is the best choice.

What is this rom manager you speak of? I've never heard of a working rom manager for this device. Does rom manager work? Perhaps the answer is posted here somewhere?

For GB, just flash (oden/heimdall/heimdall one-click) any gb kernel in the dev forum and you should get CWM (unless the kernel is a fully stock kernel, like the first one in my one-click collection).
A little lecture could help you. This has been answered like 100 times a day.
Use latestodin, flash ravers kj6 odin rom (yes, you have to be in dl mode and rom file goes in pda and i think you need to decompress the .zip file so u use the .tar) and after that just flash drhonk kj1 kernel so you can get root and cwm. Then you can flash gb roms without problem.
Theres a big post saying that Rom Manaher doesnt work wotj raver.
actualy rom manager has a Galaxy s 4G setting now so yes it does work

Also, tehgyb gave you all the good links (thanks man!)
Instead of insisting on using rom mangler, you should listen and read.
If all you want is clockwork mod + root + gb, just heimdall one-click my kj6 kernel and stock rom... The link that says: Download SMS KJ6 Kernel Stock Rom with Bootloaders
After you run that, you can flash roms with CWM (not rom manager) as you wish, and you will always have root with that kernel.

Actually it depends on what version you use. The Incubus version can be flashed by placing it on your SD card and booting into your custom recovery.
If you do it this way you will not lose root either.
Before you ask the only modification Incubus made was to root & Odex
I have been running the leak since he posted it yesterday morning. I have no issues but as always mileage varies from device to device.
If it really is true that the version in this thread can't be rooted with current methods, then I would stay away from it. You never know when root will be restored so you could be stuck with a locked device for some time.

I can't wait for a Synergy rom based on this! They ar eby far the most stable roms I have used
keep in mind people if you flash that link with odin it will lock your bootloader and you wont be able to root.

You kidding? We got the leak this morning. Roms have already been built 12 hours earlier then this thread. Do you think people are really excited about the factory image? People want Roms that they can flash.
Basically I am happy with the stock ROM but would like to get rid of the "fluff" that's there. Also want to theme I think. Anyway, What should I be looking for if I do the ROM? I am a 3 year past user of iPhone and had it jailbroke, so now I am reading and learning about Android.
The things that really matter to me are:
GPS applications
Photo Applications
Organization without the bloat
Any advice?

Thanks everyone. Sounds like that would be a good one for me but I will do some research on it first though. A few questions though, on the iPhone JB's it is pretty much a one click affair with the addition of tweaking and daemon removals for speed and such. How does one mount the ROM, do I navigate to a folder and drag it in (PC) or? BTW I am doing the research on this.
Also, how do I tell whether I have twrp recovery or CMW?

Well for beginners you picked the right Device, and welcome to the good side.
Recoveries are kinda user preference. TWRP is touch screen / CWM is button operated. Both work good.
You know what recovery your on but the one you flash.

Reading through this guide I think I understand that you must update SuperUser before proceeding. If that's true where in the app is there an option to do so? I sure don't see it playing with the menus.
Also get familiar with how to put your phone in download mode and use Odin to restore to stock just in case something should go wrong and turn your phone into a paperweight.

Its preety easy once you use it a few times. To restore just have the factory image. And choose it on the PDA option in Odin and flash away!!! No more annoying iTunes errors when trying to mess with a jail broken iPhone or when trying to downgrade it. I do miss many of the games though

One clicks are great until something goes wrong. And when something inevitabley does go wrong you are up a Creek without a paddle since you have no idea quite exactly what the one click did.
Look at droidstyles guide. That will teach you how to do essentially everything with this phone. Just make sure you always verify that anything you flash is for the USA gs3 Verizon.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda premium
Do your reading and read everything twice! Make sure you unlock your bootloader, and verify that you only flash files for the Verizon version of the phone!
Rooting is similar in some ways to Jailbreaking, but gives you significant more control. Rooting is simple, but it is only the first step if you want to flash custom ROMs, kernels, themes, etc.
Once you flash a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) and start flashing things through Recovery, you are doing way more than you ever did with Jailbreak.
I already have ROM manager on my phone. Today I ready about and installed Titanium Backup Pro. I've been getting rid of bloatware with it and doing back ups. Don't Rom Manager and Titanium Backup do essentially the same thing?
What do you do with "kernels" anyway?
