Great ROM! - Dark Unicorn Resurrected v2.5 - myTouch 4G General

Just wanted to say thanks to the devs/cooks/etc out there. I finally found a ROM besides CM7 that seems pretty rock solid:
[ROM][AROMA][AOKP](6.29.12) Dark Unicorn Resurrected v.2.5
Wow - Great job guys! No Force Close issues, no camera issues, no battery pulls!
I used the Superwipe script and wiped everything and immediately loaded this ROM. BAM - Done (been running great for about a week now)
Thanks again and looking fwd to what the future will bring

Hehehe thanks :*)

Good luck.

That's right very nice & smooth love it is the best

first and foremost I was to thank the inferno team for this rom.........
however;;;;;;;;;;;;;
I have been experiencing the exact same thing across the board with EVERY SINGLE isc rom I have tried to use. Every rom has the same issue. I randomly reboots and freezes CONSTANTLY!!!
it is the most aggravating thing ever and I rely on my phone so much just like everyone else. I am at my wits end and I really need some advise. I am not a noob and I am savvy enough to work through most issues but this one is killing me.
thanks so much !!

Have you tried aospX yet? It doesn't have very many features but the source maintainer has made it VERY stable. I can't even remember the last time I've had a random reboot.

no man i have not!!!!! let me ask you... can you customize it at all? im not really looking for features as much as I want to be able to see simple things like a battery percentage and the ability to add or delete rows and columns on the home screens.
thanks so much for the response!! !

The rom comes with battery percentage on it already. As for the home screen customization, you can always download a 3rd party launcher from the market (like apex or nova).

would there be a way to get the xperia launcher from the market and if not which would would recommend???

You could always pull the launcher from a rom that has it or search around to see if an apk has been posted. Normally, I tend to do some searching and then link whatever I find (if I find anything) but I'm on mobile. I personally have always preferred apex, but nova also works just as well imo.

okay well going back to my original question.... i want to use these roms. my personal favorite would be dark unicorn and awesome ics, but these are just not stable. what can i do on my end to ensure their stability???? i have to assume that i am not alone in this issue with the rebooting and other bullcrap with the mytouch4g right?
i cannot upgrade devices right now so im stuck with this one and honestly i love the pohone but i dont want to have to revert to cm7 now that i have tasted the sweetness of ics.
what can i do here?? thanks

There really is no way "ensure their stability" when this device was never meant to run ics in the first place.

AospX is one of the most stable ics releases for our device (imo), although I feel like its overlooked due to its lack of features (though those features were kept out for the sake of stability). As for making awesome ics or dark unicorn better, you can pm awesome 3 times a day until he updates them ... other than that the only real advice I can give you is to take up a bit of android and try to learn how it works. I don't use those roms so I wouldn't know exactly what's wrong/needs adjusting.

Theory of why we don't have sense 3.5 or cm7

The mytouch 4g slide specs are too powerful. In the interest of sales and the economy, the government is forced to limit development on this perfect piece of hardware. If we had cm7 or sense 3.5 with gpu UI rendering (harware acceleration)... People would be so happy with their phone that they would not buy a new one, ever again...

You might want to also try undeads absolution. Its pretty nice and basically has all the kanged cm has plus a couple fixes and debloated some more which is always a good thing.
On a side note you might want to give undeads senseless ROM a try as he's got a good bit of cm stuff mixed in to keep it interesting if you want to keep the TV out and good awesome sense camera and 1080p video and not have a bunch of useless crap the stock room had in it. Actually I recommend it at this current moment as cm is great but at the expense of losing a couple of the premium qualities (camera,TV out) of this phone??

It's basically an alpha...
It's a nice start...but the kernel in it will murder your battery. There are some market issues as well as keyboard glitches.
Here's a list posted of issues by the OP
The current buglist:
- Recording in HD Video is limited to 720p currently.
- Camera zoom is limited to 2X.
- Certain browser issues, such as reported crashes and flash 11 movie compatibility issues. (CyanogenMod).
For the most part you might be better off sticking to Undeadk9's Senseless for now..... Might want to hold off till Sunday Undeadk9's got something to share.
But here's CM7

Haven't noticed anything particularly bad with battery consumption. Not as good as my Vision, but WAY better than Doubleshot STOCK.

Browser "issues" easily corrected through the use of a REAL BROWSER, aka FIREFOX.
The other issues with the camera... less than significant.

CyanogenMod on T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G [Pics]

Hey guys just wanted to show you some screenshots of the famous CyanogenMod. I am running version 7.1.0. I haven't had any real problems with the ROM yet and i have been running it for about a month. Only thing i have really noticed is that it won't vibrate when i get a text message... even when its on vibrate. Another thing that bugs me is that you do not have the option to set a Live Wallpaper... but you get over it. The kernel i am using is the stock kernel with this ROM... I am wanting to flash a 1.5GHZ kernel, but i never seem to have that much luck flashing kernels and always get stuck at the boot screen. This ROM is plenty fast enough and very smooth on the stock kernel. I also get amazing battery life. Check out the thumbnails below.
Um...not sure what to say. CM7 has been out for the Sensation for a couple months.

Just saw you had troubles getting your phone to boot after a kernel flash. Do you wipe cache and dalvik before you reboot ? If not, that might be the reason it gets stuck in a loopboot.

I just flashed the 1.73ghz faux kernel and i got it to work. =) i also attached a thumbnail of SetCPU showing the clock speed.
Nice let us know how it performs. I'm on HD Rom now with 1.56Ghz Kernel. Happy with the phone as is but always looking for potential improvements. Particularly I want more "4G" speed, not sure there's much I can do about that though.

Why but a sense equipped phone and then downgrade it with ugly CM7? You should really have bought a samsung, at least then the ugliness would be vivid, very bright and have a greenish tinge.
But if thats your preference, enjoy it - We are all different after all

Valhalla Black. Solid. Waiting for miui
I use my slightly modified valhalla black.
I added /etc/profile with some command line aliases since I use the CLI a lot more than I used to now.
Updated superuser and some other files, my own bootanimation, my own init.d files and a few apps added on install and some more debloating of apps I don't use. It's still 99% VB though.
My favorite thing about it is the stability. Raver did some fine work with that ROM in addition to the work Whitehawk did.
Was on VB for a long time. Then MIUI for over a month. Now using erikmm's Sweet Child Of Mine. What I like about this one is he's pulled a lot from MIUI and put it in this. Check it out and see. Plus the name is just bad ass.
MIUI. I never have to answer the phone immediately, and I always had my phone on silent anyway. Everything else is the ****.
I'm on the latest version of Sweet Child Of Mine and loving it!! I love MIUI but I need to have the ringtone work. I like the MIUI features that are incorporated into the Sweet Child Of Mine ROM.
VB....solid
you know the trick to getting ringtones to work on miui load the mp3 player then hit home so it stays resident in memory ur phone will ring ;P

This had to of been one of the easiest ports ever. lol..
This ROM is amazing. One of the best I've seen so far on the Evo Shift. Pretty much everything works out of the box so far. I love the high resolution layout. The tiny text gives me a headache, but I know you're already working on that. I checked out the camera and if you go into settings and set it to 4MP it starts working. You can then put it back up to 5MP. Camera also works fine in barcode scanner, etc. Still need to test the GPS (I'm inside right now but wi-fi based location works without issue).
I installed the Google Now apk from this thread, it it works great.
BTW, the market got stuck on downloading at one point, but a reboot fixed it.
Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the feedback!! I'm glad you enjoy my work! I'll start the Google Now soon I need help from a friend with the whole small text thing, then I'll launch into other things. Thanks!!

Forgot to mention, "Paranoid Settings" in the system settings app causes a FC. Is this a known issue?
I've noticed too but I think I can fix it with something simple.. Thanks for letting me though
~ Important Side Note
I've got someone to help me with getting Jelly Bean for everyone. I'm NOT guaranteeing that I will get it booted. I'll let everyone know if I have the Rom booted or not either 7/25/12 or 7/26/12. All this work is making me dizzy lol. I can't wait to see if I can get it booted! There will be no developing on this paranoid android Rom FOR NOW due to me focusing on 4.1 for everyone. Cheers
~Mega
Awesome dude. Great job. I am glad you got paranoid. I love this on my nook color.
I'm all thumb's
You're doing a great job! Keeping the shift alive!
I would thank you both but I'm limited and I'm glad you like my paranoid. Just can't focus on 2 Roms at once so most of my focus will be towards 4.1 for the time being. I know that 4.1 will bump the Shift up a lil and keep it out the Low Activity & Legacy Devices AKA HTC Hero CDMA. Still shocked they got it before we did. Well it sure did motivate me to start 4.1 I'm getting help from Shelnutt2 with my 4.1. So all creds go to him! Without him I wouldn't know where to begin Have a great day and looking forward to getting 4.1 to the shift
About to release another ICS Rom. Just to give a preview its going to be my own remix of everything mashed up. I've got to do some work on it when I wake up, It is based off somewhat LG .. Can't share too much or I'll ruin it lol .. It will be released tomorrow

Modifying /system/build.prop to add the line below will make it so that "Paranoid Settings" starts working (don't know which version of paranoid android you're using, so I had to guess).
Code:
ro.pa.version=paranoidandroid-pa_speedy-1.5a-25jun2012-170644
Then going into Paranoid Settings -> "Hybrid Settings" -> "Default Status Bar Density" you can change how big you want it. 160 DPI works for me. You can also change other apps to have different DPIs.

Help me choose a rom

Number 1 for me is stability. I am looking for a Rom that fully works or for the most part everything is working. Full camera functionality/flash, Sending and receiving SMS & MMS, GPS (I use navigation often), making and receiving calls, all the basic stuff that work on stock. Stability is my main objective. Second would be battery life & fluidity. Everything else like customization options is a nice bonus
I expected the Jelly Bean OTA to be better than it was. I did a factory reset when I got the update to make sure my phone started fresh. Even formatted internal and external SD card. I just expected a better experience. They took away some things I loved and added some things I don't like. But the main thing that bothers me is the occasional stutter/lag. And I notice battery life is worst on the JB OTA. I thought JB was suppose to be refined, it's not totally buttery smooth like they promote it to be. At least not on the stock Verizon variant of the GS3.
I am looking at "The Executioner" or the CleanRom/CleanRom Lite Edition. Any opinions or thoughts by people who have ran both would be appreciated!! I realize roms, as most things in life are a personal preference but I'd still like to get some opinions.

Thanks for the feed back!! Is there any common bugs people been experiencing with it? All the basic functions are working well? Again I appreciate the reply, I'm brand new to the S3 section of the site. This makes me excited to see what the rom is about. I take it the rom has no stutters or occasional lag like the stock touchwiz.

I use the CM10 Nightlies. I update about once a week or so. And I have had very minimal issues. When I did run into any, I just updated the next day and the issue was fixed. And you can report bugs to the developers to help expedite the fixes as they come up. Not to mention no more touchwiz, *Gag*

I heard CM roms were great for customization but may not be most stable? I was thinking of trying it anyways. I like the AOSP or pure Google look and feel. I gotta think about it I don't know if I'll have the time to flash an update every day for a bug fix lol. Thank you for the input

I forgot to ask, thing that bothers me most about the recent official JB OTA, I am required to have my GPS turned on to refresh my weather Widgets. Being connected to the net is not enough anymore m after the update, now I need GPS on for some reason? Is this the case for the Executioner Rom or no?

Who cares if there's other threads about the same thing? It's called a forum for a reason. Save your 2 cents for helpful advice.
Anyway I'm thinking of switching to executioner rom also. On synergy now.

I tried that and it worked, thanks! How much screen time are you averaging on the Executioner Rom?

That's sick! What are you undervolting it to? And you still said the Rom was fast, I might have to roll with your set up.

Who cares that the mods hate it... Isnt this what the forum is for? To talk about the galaxy s3? At least its not in the wrong section

People spend hours putting together guides, doing reviews, etc. It's frustrating sometimes to see how little effort some people put into utilizing the forum.
It works both ways. These boards would be alot less cluttered if people searched. We're all guilty of it, I'm not preaching. Just know where he coming from.
For example there's a great guide in the android development forum that compares many different roms.
