Hi There! I've scoured the forums, but haven't been able to definitively find my answer. And thus I submit my first supplication to the XDA deities...
I just rooted my Evo and have been trying out several roms ... Cyanogenmod, Fresh Evo, Baked Snack, OMJ ... But none have exactly what I'm looking for. The following are important to me, but seemingly difficult to get all in one package:
4G
Swype
Wireless Tether
Wiimotable Bluetooth Stack
Remove almost every Sprint Apps (this seems easy on most roms)
Better battery life and performance would be nice too...
Any ideas?
I know that cyanogenmod has all of this except 4G (but they are on the cusp!) In the alpha build that has 4G there seem to be a lot of usability issues (like camera issues and you have to turn off your phone to turn 4G back on). I also haven't been able to successfully install Swype... Maybe the best solution is to wait for Cyanogenmod to work out the kinks with 4G?
I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong section or for anything else.
Hey guys. i have been messing around with this AT&T LG thrill 4G for some time now waiting for a blasted update. aren't we all?
I have also been trying to find the best base band for my area, i find the answer is unclear from searching around. Is there a special sequence flashing the base bands to achieve the best results?
As of now im running the Acura team ROM fine. i previously was running the KING ROM with no issues until i tried a different base band and loss data. anyhow i went back to the BB that worked with king before and could never get data higher then 500 kbps.??
Also thanks in advance to everyone that uses there time to make this happen for us all!

Well i think i have finally made my peace for now, i seems hit and miss.
Its kinda weird to be honest. i can flash a new rom one min and get 500kbps data, and flash a different one and back and get 3G speeds. I have settled with the samba rom with v18a base band. all is well for now.
I used to love messing around with my Touch Pro 2, had much fun trying out different ROMs and customizing my phone. So I was kinda bummed when I got my 7 Pro last year and I found that all the hard working ROM developers had to start from stratch. The biggest disappointment was that I could no longer use my phone to connect my laptop to the internet when away from home. Checking out this forum, I'm glad to see there's ROMs released into the wild now! But before I jump on in again, I was wondering: how stable the ROMs are and if I'll be able to tether?
im running the dft freedom 8107 rom and I haven't experienced any problems. Internet sharing is enabled and works great on that rom. I also tried the dft tango rom but the internet sharing wasn't enabled so I switched back to 8107.
Thanks, I'll give that a try. I did a search for that ROM and found this link: [EDIT: can't post links yet] [hotfile.com/dl/145358405/901702a/DFT_Freedom_Gold_V4_8107_22_langs.7z.html]
Just wanted to check that that would be the correct ROM for a Sprint HTC Arrive before I mess anything up.
Any recommended guides for the unlocking process?
this thread is probably a good place to start:

Make sure the rom you use is for gold c (that is the codename for the arrive) It looks like the one you posted is for the gold version (7 pro).
You should be able to find all the info you need in the 7 pro development forum.
Hello all, I have been a long time iOS user and new to the android world. Just got a Inspire 4G for my dad and had a few questions
1) Since this phone will be for my dad, im wondering what is the FASTEST, CLEANEST custom rom? all im looking for is basic cell phone functions (voice data wifi gps etc) that runs on the most stable version of android with a rom that is designed for speed and stability. (no need for fancy eye candy or tech savvy apps)
2) this phone is factory unlocked to T-Mobile, is there anything i should change to make the network work best on this att phone (changing APN settings, flashing something, etc?)
3) if you have any advice, tweaks, information for a newbie with this phone please do tell.
Thank you so much in advance for any help is greatly appreciated!

ok, you are new here but you need to follow the rules nonetheless. Read the guides available (in my signature) and find what is best for you. To sim unlock the device you can ask T-Mobile for the code. However, as far as I am concerned, the inspire 4G was for at&t only...
Again, do not ask people to do your job, just read and use the search engine.
Since every device handles software a little differently, you need to try it out for yourself and see if you like it. Thats the beauty of XDA, you get to try it out yourself and see if you or your Dad likes it. See what features he would find useful and go off of something like that.
So since everyone has different options, Im going to close this before it becomes a BEST ROM THREAD... and we dont allow those.
Q&A for [ROM] Vanillipop 1.2 - 11/26/2014 [Vanilla Android Lollipop]
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.
Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for [ROM] Vanillipop 1.2 - 11/26/2014 [Vanilla Android Lollipop]. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
One question, does this rom support Motion Launch gestures? I am not a big fan of htc's power button, so I use that all the time.

Lost root on install
Just installed 1.2. Installation seemed to go normally, but I no longer have root. I've already upgraded the firmware. What am I missing?
Nice rom... This one seems more snappier than that other 5.0 gpe rom...great work!
I keep getting lockups with this ROM. I'm not sure if it's something I have installed or whatnot, but I have had to reset with Power+VolUP about 4 times just today. I do like the speed and snappiness of it, but I just need stability right now. I've seen a few people with this problem, but haven't seen any solutions as of yet. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I had the same issue a few times within a couple hours, so I ended up just going back to Sense for now.
does this work on the GSM version?
GPS
Upgraded to 1.4 this morning, still loses GPS signal when trying to use Maps for navigation after about 2 minutes, any help?
1.5 / 5.01 update?
I saw that 1.5 was in the works, but the thread has died down. Would be interested in knowing whether the delay is due to the 5.01 code being released and if we're perhaps going to jump to 2.0. Great work @okibi We appreciate your excellent efforts.
To the OP: just wondering if a rebase (with 5.0.1 out in the wild) is in the works for us. Thanks.

Just wondering if everything is okay with @okibi as it appears the thread / development on Vanilla Android Lollipop has died between 1.4 and 1.5. Hope all is well as this is my daily driver and favorite ROM.
Wifi randomly turning off
Got a problem, that I have been seeing randomly with this ROM. Every so often, the wifi on my HTC one m8 will turn off. When I try to go connect again, no networks are available but Wifi is enabled. The fix is to reboot the phone, then upon booting up it automatically connects and all is well until the next time it does this. My firmware is the latest (3.28.605.4). Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Ryan
Did anyone find a fix to the GPS problem?

Yeah, the rom was progressing pretty quickly, and then everything just went silent. It's odd.
Anticipating WiFi fix in next release.
No access point name
There is normally a setting for access point names in the cellular network section of settings to tweek so that my sms/mms app of choice can auto select the correct APN but it is missing from the rom. Is it in a different place in settings?
Amaze file manager force closing when trying to cut and paste from internal storage to ext SD card.
GPS issues
I am running the gpe #1 from [ROM] Vanillipop 1.4 - 12/1/2014 [Vanilla Android Lollipop], on a verizon htc one m8. In itself an amazing system, however i am having issues with gps. Although its on, it doesnt ever connect even though it shows it is. All apps say low gps signal, and using a gps tracker app, it says no sattelites aquired. Any ideas???
I am stuck on a bootloop. From morning. None of the key working. Plzzzz help.
Coz i flashed this rom over viper rom without wiping. What to do now?
I am too scared.
