[HOWTO][Get the best of the XT720 on fjfalcon [KANG] ROM CM7]
It's been almost six months that I use the Cyanogen mode 7 on my phone Motorola Xt-720.
Indeed, at first the phone was restarting all the time and was really slow.
I think even he could not bear the transfer of my apps on my SD card. I tried a lot of things.
I switched to froyo with the assistance of Reverendkjr and subsequently CM7 and now my phone is nice.
Here, some thing I did, to make it enjoyable.
[1] «Root explorer» To remove the unnecessary application
[2] «16G class 10 SD Card» For more speed
[3] «Google Drive With a Dropbox file inside» Lol
[4] I moved all my application in my sd card except my Launcher.
[5] «Swapper for root»
[6] «720 MHz Min and Hight»
[7] «Governor Performance»
[8] «No animation at all...»
[9] «Font size extra small»
[10] «ICS theme by Kodev»
[11] «ADWLAUNCHER EX»
Here are some screenshots of my phone:
Let me know what you think.
If i were new to custom Roms, i would definitelly get the most out of this informative thread.

Rooted my phone using the unlockr method and installed cyanogens ROM in the Dream forum. It takes almost twice as long to boot than the stock ROM and Taskiller says its using more RAM.
if you want a real light hero rom then download the superlite rom.
Umm... Cyanogen is by far the fastest ROM around. It should be much faster than unrooted (which has been my experience with a Mytouch for sure). Boot time is longer, but afterwards it flies. Make sure you are using the stable build because some pleople have been having speed problems with the latest experimental. It does have automatic Apps2SD so if you partitioned your card for ext2 partition but have a low class card (like the stock class 2 card) apps can be running slower than usual. Upgrade to a class 6 to fix that.
Other than that all I can recomend is to do a clean whipe of the phone and SD and try again with the laters stable build.
After using several ROMs I prefer the none hero roms, especially because of lack of sms app stability. I've been using Cyanogen mod and xROM and they have been by far the quickest ones. Doesnt have the fancy hero widgets but I can live with out them until HTC release an official upgrade.
Read the forum rules please, this is a development forum, where your question have no relevance at all. This thread is reported to the mods.

What a crazy 3 months it has been, with life in general getting in the way of development, but it's over and here is a release for everyone!
For the full list of changes please see the changelog at http://bit.ly/aH0ioL.
*Please note*
All Google apps that are available for download from the market will no longer be included in the CCRoms Google apps package, to facilitate updating the apps the way Google intends.
Also this release is FROYO, Gingerbread will most likely be our next release with this gem version's features ported to AOSP Gingerbread.
The Main Highlights:
Obsidian for the Droid X is now a fully stable build, some minor bugs might still exist, but otherwise it is rock solid.
Tanzanite for the Droid 2 is also stable build, since it is so close to the Droid X.
Emerald for the HTC Evo is also stable for all pre-2.10 and 2.02 hboot updates.
Sapphire is just as stable as ever.
Ruby has been updated to the Miui ril for better connectivity and is more stable than ever.
That's right we are now on 5 phones, Thanks for all of your support everyone!
Now for the important part, Obsidian 2.0, Ruby 2.0, Sapphire 2.0, Tanzanite 2.0 are released!
All Downloads are available under the downloads section on our wiki: http://wiki.ccroms.net
Be sure to read the wiki pages fully for known issues and install instructions for certain roms.
NOTE: Emerald has been having some kernel issues and 2.0 will be delayed slightly.
Looks good, but shouldnt it be "Bring out your DROID" haha
I can almost hear a cat being slung and a bell ringing hehe

Stock looking. Really reponsive ROM +1

How do you install stuff on the rom like market without a file explorer? I think I'm in trouble.... So if I cant install "stuff" how can I revert to my nandroid without clockwork?

Easy download GAPPS onto your sd card, boot into recovery and "flash" Gapps (its a zip file).
Voila, instant Google apps.
Ah thanks! I am unfamiliar with some of the rules... but learning fast. Sapphire on my wife's Droid1 is running great! After installing only a minor hiccup... but I forgot to wipe cashed stuff. The stock keyboard has issues. It will only suggest names, no words, or auto correct functions. Using swift key now. Very stable. All functions work gps to camera. 8 out of 10

do i need to partition my sd card or can i just flash this
Judging by the size, I'd say partitioning might be a good idea, especially if you have a lot of apps.
Just flash it
Just wipe and install boss ....
Or yea i guess
partitioning might be a good idea, especially if you have a lot of apps.

So any lock screen lock ups? Sense looping. How long did it take to fully boot? Have you tried virus kingdom? If so what are the differences? Which is more stable in your opinion?

It creates a separate space on your SD card, which acts as extra storage for your phone's operating files. Kind of like adding extra ram to your phone, leaving more space for the OS to use. Anyway, be absolutely sure to back up the contents of your SD card to your computer before partitioning. The partition will erase everything you have on the card.
We are now in 2012 and there to mutch custom roms. I flash my xt720 more than 10 times and the best I try so far is Khalpower's Miui v2 run on android 2.2 only hdmi and HD camcorder have problem the rest run smooth and fast (quadrant at 1000Mz score +/- 1500) http://www.multiupload.com/QD43FUYO5N
New version of Miui that run on android 2.3 are to buggy http://code.google.com/p/miui-xt720/
Do not forget apply patch = metoroiXt720 to MilestoneXT720 bootfix from Mioze7Ae http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284017
CyanogenMod7 run on andoid 2.3 minor bug fast (quadrant at 1000Mz score +/- ? ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300246
Is there other custom roms that are fast and not to buggy ? please supply quadrant at 1000Mz score if it possible. thanks
note: for new at flashing roms, good video is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Axj-iDPI8lc
Hey nice thread! i will keep updating this. thanks
i used Bravo 1.9 runing on 2.2, but i didn't overclocked to 1000 Mhz, and was 889 in quadrant (little bit more than galaxy S)
i've been using CM7.2 and quadrant gave me 969 NO overclock, but it's not 100% stable
i like CM7 but it seems to be battery-drain.
why don't you try khalpowers' v4 rom? i think it's stable and supports swap, which few roms support.
Brianlili has picked up support and improvements to CronosX (Android2.3.7) he has done a great job making it clean smooth and stable, with HD recording working. It seems to have great battery life as well.
[ROM] [20120302]CronosX (Android2.3.7) for XT720 continues...HD VideoRecord Available
i tried Cronos but i couldn't make the keyboard to show up even if i changed the language.

If I'm not wrong, there was a moto input keyboard that comes when you purchased the phone. The files will be inside the sdcard. These files will install the keyboard, as well as the pinyin input.
So just ignore the wizard at startup and skip the whole thing until you find yourself in the homescreen. Use Tetra (the file mgr inside Cronos) and navigate to the files (as mentioned above) and installed the keyboard. Then reboot your phone.
It was confusing at first, but once you settle the keyboard issue, the rest are just great.
Just try CM6 and feel the different
wanna try back the rom built by Khalpower, but all the links in his thread were broken...
Now in Cronos by Brian, but i think cm 6.3 is the best so far.
i think ROM 6.3 RC is most stable
i used CM 6.3 a lot back then, i've changed to 7.2 .. and now i'm testing cronosx for a week. and the latter, omg.. like 10 times faster than any rom i've tested before. now i feel like i have a new phone.. apps responding when i push them, i don't need an hour to load the apps menu nor laggy scrolling
gn01222116 I have the Khalpower rom, I am trying to find a way to attache it in a post.
I currently running that version of Miui (nandroid) http://www.mediafire.com/?bo71v7t5fnv92ss
I create 3 partitions on SD card fat32, ext3 and a swap. In ext3 partition create a dir "app" Miui transfer all new apps to ext3 true build in a2sd.
I am also trying to make a step by step youtube video. Link will fallow, I hope.
ai,it's hart to update
I'm actually using CronosX and it's running fine. The phone isn't laggy and the battery life is great. No lagg with camera ( new sdcard really helps ) and HD recording works great.

Well, it does take time for the developers to get the ROMs to that sweet spot where there's virtually nothing to complain about -- and having a variety to choose from is always nice yeah definitely til the wrinkles get ironed out stick with a good stable CM or older version of MIUI...or if you're really tired of flashing your XT stick with the stock ROM
This thread is opened because of several reasons. One of the main reasons is we want to know
everything we don't really need to be a human
I've the ME865 Atrix 2 and I've flashed/tried both the rom above. Let's compare them quickly :
For the supercharged v7 , there are some many features listed in its thread. I'd just like to say
something different to the ME865-rom.
1. You can overclock it to 1200MHz.
XXXXXX2. Setting buttons at notice bar. XXXXX (both of the roms include this)
3. Highly tweaked with smooth experience.
4. With DSPManager.
5. Almost no bloatware.
6. Great support and rooted.
7. GoogleApps included
8. Themed nicely.
ME865 ICS China rom :
First you can find some info about the 052012 rom here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687173&highlight=me865
+ the phone lasts (much)longer (and cooler) even when it's running in 1.2GHz comparing with the supercharged v7.(I don't know why)
and there are many things changed and fixed in the 04072012 rom, here are the major differents between the ME865 and SCv7 roms:
1. No more official oc, all are run in 1GHz.
2. baseband changed to 0620.
3. THe led is (still) on when it's charging.
4. The call recording function is totally functional.
5. the auto-power-on (with your decided time) function is functional.
6. WiFi issue is almost fixed.
7. lots of useful-in-china-bloatware
8. reboot menu is included by default
9. 4GB internal storage can be used.
I hope we can get some idea to make the best roms. I can't sure whether we can use the config files in the other roms but you can really flash the system and ext3 partition into both MB865 and ME865 machine.
Sorry but this should be posted in the General Section... Having a mod move it.
