OK guys, here goes. I've been experimenting with alotta ROMs lately, mostly ICS. In time I've realized that we never have the features that we paid for, mainly 1080p recording. If the phone doesn't oporate the way we paid for it to (And I paid full price) then is it not a waste to flash the ROM?
I love the speed and battery efficiency I get from the devs and I'm blown away by the amount that they've accomplished, but I've been recently contemplating falling back to stock simply because I'll have the awesome camera. I'd even settle for a top notch Sensation ROM. I know this sounds like a complainer thread, but I've been really losing morale with this device. It seems there will be no more hard KB devices so I might defect to a One S or wait for a One S equivalent from T-mobile. What do you guys think?
I will never give up my keyboard. You leave if you like. And these custom roms are supposed to give our phone something it would've never had otherwise. A functioning ICS rom. If you can't live without everything working, then you should stick to stock or stock tweaked. (I can't use 1080p even if it was working. Don't have a fast enough card )
Rom building and compiling takes a lot of time and effort, not to mention skill.
Essentially, these fine devs are doing the work HTC and T-Mobile were never going to do. Lazy greedy scum they are

I personally don't think that it's a waste to flash these ROMs. Mainly because IMO (aside from 1080p recording) we're really getting more than what we paid for if you think about it. All the features that are available with ICS alone would have made this device more expensive to begin with off the shelf. Then add features of CM9 that these devs are cooking into the ICS ROMs or the features of Sense/ICS ROMs combined together...I think we it's a great thing what's been accomplished.
If 1080p recordning is the main thing you really want then I'd follow the previous suggestion and flash stock or go with a modded stock ROM. There will be no defecting for me. I love physical keyboards! I use mine daily in one way or another.
Even if it comes to the point that nothing on this device is supported anymore I will have this phone lol. We have enough to be used as DDs. So all in all for me, I don't think these ROMs are a waste to flash/use.

This is why I use Bulletproof. It has everything we paid for, and is much more stable and optimized than the stock rom. I would love to have an ICS rom, but I want everything to work on my phone. This is my choice. I am happy with using a GB rom, because my phone does everything I want it to. If it isn't broke don't fix it.

I'm sorta in the same boat as OP. I've flashed everything and found camera limitations with all of them, so I'm really waiting a 1080p fix with flawless camera otherwise before I go back to ICS. I really love how far everything has come this year in terms of development and it's much appreciated, but I don't plan on going back to an ICS ROM without a fully functioning camera. I have an 19 month year old son and just can't risk it!
My dream is ICS with Sense, but even just for a nice camera fix, I think I'd be okay without Sense.
Running Mik in the meantime. Bulletproof was nice except for the green tint to everything.
Hoping for a camera fix soon. Wallet will be opened then!

I am in north carolina, my dev computer is in pennsylvania. I bought yogi's doubleshot, he doesn't have one anymore.
I don't know what I have, but whatever it is it's hundreds of miles away and wholly unavailable.
If you want to host the UV kernels, they were made by yogi, but I'm sure it'll be okay - only issue is no sources, so...?
If it's kosher to link them up here, then feel free to host them and make a thread for it if you want, I have no issue with it, if it'll help someone that's what's important.
Just make sure to credit yogi, and make sure to be explicit about no support from the authors. I'm not quite in a position to do so yet with my new job, still absorbing a lot of data and training, so my brain and body are worn and exhausted after my shift ends in the morning.
I'll bring this to yogi's attention, or at least ask about it, but I don't see an issue with sharing it, provided the two requests I made above are filled.

Oh, not gonna quote the whole OP yet again in the thread on page 1... But...
Op - if you feel something is lacking, you are in the place to give you the best shot at figuring out how to make it do what you want.
As far as getting all the features you paid for, well, you paid htc or tmobile, or a little of both, or you bought it secondhand, but the money was originally collected by one or both of those entities. If you use the software they provide, then you get what you paid for.
Using an alternate software version, like what you find here, actually gives you much more then what you paid for it - for you paid nothing, and got a whole lot in return.
You can jump in and help the active devs solve problems, or wait until they do, but the argument about getting whatever value you invested real money into evaporates the moment you flash any non-stock OS.

To be fair, I never used this feature before I flashed CM9, and I continue to not need it. Cameras, to me, are just a bonus. I just want a faster phone with better battery life.

I just got the myTouch 4G, and I was looking through the ROMs, and some of them do not have screen shots, or videos. So I decided that in my free time, I will flash roms, and do video reviews on YouTube. I literally just started about 5 minutes ago, so give me some time.

Or use the Kernel that the developer based the ROM around. The Kernel is the very basis of the ROM. I'm sure the developers have already did this.

I definitely respect what you are saying, but I think that options are there to be explored. To me it's a lot like saying use the ROM the manufacturer developed for the phone. We are here because we like choices and we like to be self-appointed test subjects. To each his own.
subscribed to your channel, thanks for taking the time to do this!
great idea! but i just checked out your channel and you should consider using the dev's version number in the title instead to be more accurate since they often update their roms with new features
so instead of like royal ginger 2.3.3 you should put royal ginger v2.1

A lot more ROM info is needed. Seems kinda silly to be doing ROM reviews and not actually say what ROM is being reviewed. "MIUI 2.3.3" doesn't tell anyone much when there are several MIUI ROMs available for the MT4G.

Sorry about the wait guys. Expect a few more reviews today. Been busy with school and work, but I got some free time, and a new camera. Uber Gingersense, and other rom reviews will be uploaded across the next few hours. I'm uploading the uber gingersense now, and I have an AOSP to upload after that, and the camera has to charge, then I will do virtuoso, and there after.
Subscribed. I highly recommend virtuous fusion v1.0.6. It eats up my ram a little more than some but I've had no lag and its just a beautiful rom.
like the idea of your channel. some suggestions to make it better:
1)better camera
2)don't include instructions on how to flash, unless it is exceptionally difficult/different
3)shorter video and to the point
4)video editing to condense video
Great idea and thanks for your contribution! This will help a lot of people out and save people some time. I think it's rude that certain people would criticize what your doing without a least saying "thanks." I think suggestions and constructive criticism are great, but why do people have to be rude when you're doing something for no compensation simply to help others out? Just kind of pi$$es me off. Gonna subscribe now...
Hey all just wanted to see if I was the only one noticing this, but there hasn't been a new ROM in a very long time...I keep on seeing the same ones pop up. Is it because of the SOPA scare? I know it wouldn't have an effect on devs BC of open source though... Hmmmmm kind of inspires me to build roms!

Jessooca I was meaning to make a thread just to shed some light on this dark subject. As it is the truth most real dev's have left and abandoned us. Which is part of the XDA's natural selection thus comes rise to power of SuperPhone era as our ever weak SmartPhone is no match for those superior monsters. You have to see our phone came out in 2010Q4 and lifespan of it officially is 6-12months. This phone was never HD2-US (Leo1024) where community kept it life well beyond it should have and became the XDA's most defiant device.
When all the stars burns out in the universe and the darkness descend upon us. From far away in the galaxy out of no where a burst of light so strong that it could be seen from everywhere reaches us. As due to high radiation it will omit blue energy and it will be frozen like cryogenic. We the Collectors have foreseen and predicated its coming as it will fulfill prophecy for all ancient legacy devices. It is now known as CyanogenMod which will leave its strong footprint with CM7.2SR when all roms are stopped from being compiled.

Needless to say this phone has almost run it's course, it's powerful an capable of so much. But when team royal split, faux leaving,evil going mia an darkside leaving, that didn't leave us with much. We do have dev's like Feb,Gaza,bsbachert(if he is still around),eqjunkie an the team I'm on, trying to get this phone life support. It's hard but it's possible.
Other phones that been out longer then, I'll use the sensation an example, have better specs then us an is more widely known to mass's. That's why they have so much support. This phone is trying to be something it's not,a high class device to appeal to this mass. Ya our specs look like the DHD. Honestly if I saw this or the DHD next to each other when I bought this phone, well I wouldn't be typing this right now.
All I'm trying to say is, this phone is the messed up little kid that's trying to make up for all the bad things it's done.

Edit:I think that's my longest post to date, lol.
DhD-EU came out before MT4G. As we know EU folks always get superior hardware before us in USA. So when Glacier came out it was the most powerful HTC GSM device in US market. After which CDMA Vz-TB came out as it was devised version of DhD-EU for US market.
Like you Mr High I also picked MT4G. I was aware of MT4G in end of July 2010 as didn't waste time trying to buy Desire Z/G2 as DhD while perfect replacement for HD2-US was not viable candidate for me in the USA due to network capabilities incompatible with TMobile's HSPA+. So I got MT4G few months before it was dropped to TMoUS or I had another choice to pick SamSUX Nexus S (which is another thread of its own don't even get me started).
For those of us who is welling to stay with MT4G they should know that it is actually powerful enough hell we got 2gs 1ghz proc with 768mb ram. If we don't see official CM9 we might see some KANG's. But not to worry we can still use official CM7.2SR as AOSP2.3.7GB itself is not that bad. So if anyone is welling to take the stand with GB with me then I will release the 42.3MB GB2.3.X enhancement package. Which is a super power boost for all AOSP based rom using AOSP2.3.5GB-AOSP2.3.7GB.

Quite honestly it happens to all the mytouch line. Take a look at the mytouch 3g and slide forum....you can hear the dust falling. It looked like it was gonna die here back at the beginning of the summer then eViL d dropped fusion and it seemed to pop back to life. It happens. I'm actually liking flashing older stuff. I'm sure it will get boring but I forgot how complete and fast some of the older roms can be. I'm running doubleshot now and its running smoother and more fluent than 3.5 roms on here and I didn't have to flash 4 different things to get it working properly. You tend to forget that these devs on here made stuff that actually works for our phone and not some multi device rom that never gets supported. I'm not speaking of Virtuous....lol!
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk
I think the reason phones like the Galaxy S, or the Sensation, or even the DHD get so much support cause they're international devices, so devs all over the world can dev for those phones, unlike us here, who only have the US devs. Lol no one else even knows the existence of the HTC Glacier

sure development has slowed down a bit, but we also have had some GREAT devs coming through here and working their magic. I mean just look at all the ROMS that are available to us...Froyo, Gingerbread, ICS, Sense, AOSP, MIUI...and with plenty of ROMS to fill each category(well except for ICS currently) I mean if you stop for a second, and really browse through the development section youll see awesome work. IMO, Id prefer a high quality rom that works in every way rather than always flashing the newest and greatest thing while dealing with all the bugs and what not. just my 2 cents on the whole thing...

Quite honestly it happens to all the mytouch line. Take a look at the mytouch 3g and slide forum....you can hear the dust falling. It looked like it was gonna die here back at the beginning of the summer then eViL d dropped fusion and it seemed to pop back to life. It happens. I'm actually liking flashing older stuff. I'm sure it will get boring but I forgot how complete and fast some of the older roms can be. I'm running doubleshot now and its running smoother and more fluent than 3.5 roms on here and I didn't have to flash 4 different things to get it working properly. You tend to forget that these devs on here made stuff that actually works for our phone and not some multi device rom that never gets supported. I'm not speaking of Virtuous....lol!

Jessooca I was meaning to make a thread just to shed some light on this dark subject. As it is the truth most real dev's have left and abandoned us. Which is part of the XDA's natural selection thus comes rise to power of SuperPhone era as our ever weak SmartPhone is no match for those superior monsters. You have to see our phone came out in 2010Q4 and lifespan of it officially is 6-12months. This phone was never HD2-US (Leo1024) where community kept it life well beyond it should have and became the XDA's most defiant device.
When all the stars burns out in the universe and the darkness descend upon us. From far away in the galaxy out of no where a burst of light so strong that it could be seen from everywhere reaches us. As due to high radiation it will omit blue energy and it will be frozen like cryogenic. We the Collectors have foreseen and predicated its coming as it will fulfill prophecy for all ancient legacy devices. It is now known as CyanogenMod which will leave its strong footprint with CM7.2SR when all roms are stopped from being compiled.

It seems like most of the work on roms is going into ICS and it's big changes. That combined with so many new awesome devices. Hell, I'm considering switching to a newer phone and I usually make mine last until they're obsolete.

There are no new ROMs in the wild besides crappy betas. No stable Sense + ICS, no similar devices with proper ICS. What development are you looking for? How many different versions of Sense 3, Sense 3.5, MIUI and half-baked ICS do you really need?
What is left - TouchWiz? Cross-device porting is a huge task, that requires tons of skills, and I wouldn't expect it to happen.
Maybe this isn't the thread for this but before I start releasing a few roms I want to apologize for the whole kanging thing. I was having a bad day and saw no one give me credit for my work even though as someone pointed out we all kang one another, we kang HTC we kang. Just have to be sure to give credit. Please don't thank this post, this isn't me trying to get extra thanks, just more of trying to get the community to accept me before anything I release gets flamed. Thanks

Sometimes people become too emotionally involved in something for the wrong reasons.
You flipped out here, but this wasn't what was bugging you - no, don't expand on what it was because it's not for any of us to know.
That you came back and apologized for your outburst shows a lot about your character, because you do want to be a part of this and realize that arrogance is the wrong path, so, while I didn't involve myself in any of it and didn't really focus on it, I am glad to see you coming back to play with us.
What you posted before to prompt this apology was a weight dragging the doubleshot community back into the petty mudslinging and hatred this place in particular has worked so hard to bury and grow out of - this isn't some offhand I'm sorry but a recognition of just how counter to the spirit of XDA your actions were.
I accept your apology and hope to see some cool stuff from you when you get the chance, though I am only one person and wouldn't presume to speak for the community .
----
@ strapped - I resent that you paint the whole community as complicit of the actions or attitudes of a few, I can't think of a way I've wronged either of you, in fact worked on trying to help the both of you out - when you say community you mean all of us.
Don't take that as a personal shot, just put your emotions aside and consider what you're saying. Give JKilo a chance here and don't provoke a negatived response - some won't point it out but fire back and then this thread and it's intentions are poisoned.
Let's all make the effort to rise above the vile hatred this small corner of the internet tried to force on everyone in it back in october-ish, we've come a long way to rising above it with some very deliberate efforf from a lot of people.

Why is the Doubleshot dying? It needs an offical ICS. What would be nice is Virt. Inq. But based off the a stock DS ICS rom. So we could have TV-Out, and our *****en camera.

Honestly I'm not looking forward to ICS or cm9, neither have impressed me one bit. The AOSP camera is worse than stock IMHO, also the newer Sense ROMS removed carousel which is a joke. So I guess I'm not really happy where HTC is taking things.

Well the Sense carousel I'm talking is the full Sense 3.0 from like the Sensation or EVO 3D, not the generic mySense the DoubleShot got tortured with. Even still I love Sense to much to let go of my widgets. I have a PhotoGrid dedicated to my little girl. So no matter where it goes I'm sure to follow in a way

The new blog is up and ready to go:
the blog is the official place for support and downloads.
Just redid the ROM calling it the A2, find it at my blog!! link is in my Signiture.
THE NEW BLOG I WILL BE POSTING TO INSTEAD OF XDA!!
************READ FIRST POST FIRST!!!**********
Hello guys, Just testing out a new rom.
It is made off 4 Kornerz ROM from Diablo67. It is call 4KMods, It is running original kernal but is compatible with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570308 which is the underworld Sense Kernal.
Edit:The release of the 4KCM7 ROM is here only because it is going to be the "Light Weight" edition, CM7 itself is not fully functional as of this post, but will be my main priority for initializing the same Webtop experience from the Atrix/Atrix2/Razr/etc..
^^Also, the 4 Kornerz ROM base I am working will be more of the "Working Class, get it done right" ROM, meaning everything works 4G video etc..
What is working in 4KMods 4 Kornerz Base:
-Everything
What is NOT Working in 4KMods CM7 Base:
-4G
-Video
Any others please PM bugs okay?
Also, I have only modified a few things, zipalinged, Deodexed (Hopefully).
I will be adding more mods, more bacon, and more Compatibility with most kernals in later updates.
INSTALL:
**Install at your own RISK! I am not responsible if you brick or break any part of your phone.
**** YOU SHOULD ALWAYS DO A DATA WIPE/FACTORY DATA RESET BEFORE FLASHING NEW ROMS, UNLESS TOLD OTHERWISE BY DEVELOPER!!!
1. Boot Recovery
2. Select Install from SDcard
3. Select 4KModsV0_1.zip
4.Wait and then done.
Download:

4KCM7Base Download

4KCM7_Base_A1 **New**
The new A1 includes the Xperia Arch Launcher and a slightly different kernel modification, change CPU speed to 1.1ghz (I think If i did it right.)
GAPPS FIX <---YOU MUST DOWNLOAD TO FIX GAPP PROBLEMS WITH 4KCM7_Base & 4KCM7_Base_A1 ROM's
Can anyone test and post results? I do not have an HTC Evo to test on yet
Notes:
I have been doing research on cooking roms and I am new so as i get better I will be releasing more ROMS hopefully very fast with updates too.
Please let me know if this works.
***** NEED TESTERS AS I DO NOT OWN THE EVO 4G ANYMORE SO PLEASE PM ME OF ANY BUGS YOU FIND.
**EDITS TO INFO AND SHIZ DOWN BELOW THIS LINE OF TEXT!!**
Currently looking in to a way to include ubuntu or similar to the ROM, as well as a terminal or terminal shortcut to boot into it, or even use it and boot to in for use with "WebTop" Desktop dock or similar.
I found WebTop mods that may be able to boot up on the Evo, might just include an ubuntu build script for easy install/download?
Anythoughts??
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
News:
Just put CM7 into my Kitchen, and I will also be doing work on that, CM7 will be easier to do the built in ubuntu with as it is just pretty much a base, BUT I'll do minimal mods as far as CM7 goes.
I'll keep you guys posted!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow, More updates so quickly!!!
Okay so I am thinking about just switching my base over to CM7.1.0 Stable, it is smaller and I will have more room to play with..
I have already built the ROM Base on CM7 I will be updating The links above. ^
PLEASE GUYS I NEED IDEAS!!! PM OR POST IDEAS FOR THIS, I want it to be a good looking, fun experience for everyone, and if I could get someone's help as well, would be nice. PM me for details.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, So I just put up the rom download.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finished the CM7_A1 4KMods ROM for your hearts content.
ALSO you must download the GAPPS fix and flash that AFTER installing 4KCM7_Base_A1.

Yeah, I was thinking using CM7 as a base if we were to include a "WebTop" Feature which I think we should call "The VIP Korner" Since you know I based it off 4 Kornerz ROM.
The problem is IDK what to use as far as scripts, where would I get a script that will download AND install ubuntu for you, Like an all-in-one script to do it and then include a terminal app to run it?

I would love to help, but sadly I know close to nothing about development. Would there be an issue with having terminal pre-installed, and then have the script within the ROM, and have the command to activate the script in the OP?

I am not using ICS because it is still unstable for our device we are working on.

How about 4Korners ICS! That would be tight! Have you flashed any ICS recently? The only thing not working is video recording, FFC, and 4G. Really unless you are a narcissistic a-hole how often do you really use it? If more people devved for Android 4.0 maybe these issues could be solved to...that's all I'm saying...We are 6 months into having ICS for our Evos and still dont have a fully functional complete ICS rom , its time to quit piddling with Gingerbread and move on....how many Sense 1.0 roms do we really need with a new launcher or rosies and mods...its like beating a dead horse...two guys can't be expected to do it all[Drew and Deck]
No offense Sandix, but its just more of the same...these threads are gonna die real soon...everybody that got Evos on launch day will be moving on in a couple months when they get their upgrade...just would like to see devs take on the challenge of ICS and give us the latest and greatest...no Froyo rom will ever be better than Myns or Magnus', no Gingerbread rom will ever be better than Synergy or CM7, what's next? Our biggest promise seems to be porting other phones ICS to our phones a la CM9 and Gummyworms...I would maybe focus on bringing the Evo something special and new if you are going to spend time devving for it.

For one thing brother,1.0 is the most stable right now,thats why we recreate it soo much,everything works.Yea everyone wants something new,but look at the roms you mentioned,like CM7 and Synergy,none of those are fully functional,this video dont work,that 4g is borked,theres only soo much you can do with something thats not made for our devices yet,so everyone always comes back to mr.dependable,thats 1.0.At least Sandix is doing something he likes,maybe he doesnt like ICS or Bliss,or maybe hes just learning and Sense 1.0 is the easiest to learn from,he asked me if he could use the design to work with,so i told him yes,because hes wanting to learn,i like to help people that want to help themselves.
Gingerbread would be good for me. Wish y'all luck ... oh yea why don't y'all bring liquidrush ,liquidE or liquid metal rom back to life. Using a gingerbread rom as base. ??

To everyone,
I will be moving downloads to mediafire, I'll zip up the 4kmodkornerz rom and upload there (200mb limit for free users..)
Also, if anyone would like to donate so I may purchase a premium account there (downloads are decent from mediafire) and its pretty cheap or if someone could host them on their own website or something I'd be very thankful.
bimmerman7 I can only speak for myself. I have tried a few ICS roms and while nice none are as fast as GB on my EVO and I have children and do use my camera and video recording quite a bit and it has nothing to do with being narcissistic it has to so with having videos to show the kids grandmothers and being able to talk face to face with a child who is away in school. I would like a fully working ICS but I bought the phone to use and I do. I personally appreciate both types of ROMS and their developers but at the end of the day there are things I need to do and the guys that are pumping out stable fully working ROMS have my gratitude the most.

Glad to see a forum, I bought this device for my mom and hope to see devs get behind it. With an unlockable bootloader, anything can be done with the device
Since there are no mods here yet, can I be the first troll? *starts grafting the walls*
lol jk
why is it taking soooo long to restore 8600 text messages??? Actually, why does it not limit people to 300 like I checked. Would knock off a couple thousand easy. i have limits set in gosms and stock to no avail.
And it feels weird having a phone that doesn't say Samsung on it. It's been about four years. Would've been longer if Sammy would've made the i550.
Will say, the Q charges a lot quicker than the Epic ever did with or without a charge only cable. Keys have a bit more travel than the Epic's. Doesn't feel like a good thing at the moment, but I'm sure it's more of just what I'm used to. Same goes for the tab key, weird punctuation placement and the annoying on screen keys. What's the point of having onscreen buttons if there is so much bezel space at the bottom. Phone feels light and plasticy, but not in a bad way. At least there's no chromed plastic. Slider seems solid. Screen is definitely bright. Colors aren't oversaturated, and I still see a touch of pixelization that probably would be non existent if it were HD and not qHD.
Hopefully there will be some worthwhile development for this thing. Cheers all.

give me some time and ill have us some goodies, buying this phone real soon, and will port over what I've done for the photon to the q (not saying I'm going to port from photon)... in case you don't know of me....I've taken on miui, aokp, aokpcb, cm9, cna,.paranoid android, and themed/tweaked stock ....I've had alot of great friends helping me through them, so in no way can I take full credit for them but I'm certain I should be able to do the same for the q.....

Alright! I am getting CM9 and will work with some other peoples to get Shabby's device tree fleshed out. Hopefully we can get that up and running pretty quickly so we can move onto CM10/AOKP
Also, I ordered the phone today - hope to have it here soon!
My wifey wants this phone but she said she wants to wait till ROMs come out for it. Was shocked when she said that I think I got her spoiled on ROMs from her epic 4g lol.

why is it taking soooo long to restore 8600 text messages??? Actually, why does it not limit people to 300 like I checked. Would knock off a couple thousand easy. i have limits set in gosms and stock to no avail.
And it feels weird having a phone that doesn't say Samsung on it. It's been about four years. Would've been longer if Sammy would've made the i550.
Will say, the Q charges a lot quicker than the Epic ever did with or without a charge only cable. Keys have a bit more travel than the Epic's. Doesn't feel like a good thing at the moment, but I'm sure it's more of just what I'm used to. Same goes for the tab key, weird punctuation placement and the annoying on screen keys. What's the point of having onscreen buttons if there is so much bezel space at the bottom. Phone feels light and plasticy, but not in a bad way. At least there's no chromed plastic. Slider seems solid. Screen is definitely bright. Colors aren't oversaturated, and I still see a touch of pixelization that probably would be non existent if it were HD and not qHD.
Hopefully there will be some worthwhile development for this thing. Cheers all.
