Any suggestions for good roms for the mytouch4g

Well I'm not asking for the best roms but, just some roms that you think are good for the mytouch 4g. I really do like the style of the ics but it is still in beta version (for the mytouch 4g) and I would rather just wait until the majority of the bugs have been fixed. There are just so many roms I really don't know which ones to pick from. I've tried the Cm7 but I had some problems with the mms on it unfortunately. SO i had to get rid of it.
But anyway. Does anyone have some suggestions on some roms that they like on their mytouch 4g? I don't really know which ones to pick from thanks.
and please provide a link to the roms download page as well, if you can.
thank you

Lol you want us to download it and put it on your phone too?

Its Derek's 3.5 Runnymede based sense ROM. Sense handles MMS the best (IMO).
There is a link in that thread somewhere for a small mms fix. Happy hunting for that one.

Virtuous Unity 2.39
But here's what you do:
1. Ensure you have the latest Gingerbread radio
2. Do a full wipe and install Virtuous Unity
2. Download Root Explorer
3. Download GO Launcher EX
4. Set Go Launcher as the default launcher
5. Using Root Explorer, remove all Sense, widgets, themes, and other bloat you don't need from /data/app AND /system/app.
You will now have the fastest, and most stable ROM available.

I second both those 2 answers but since you tried CM7, you could now try some sense ROMs like Darkside 4 or Unity, then perhaps MiUI.
Currently running CM7.2 and liking it. Love Darkside Sense too. VUnity and Affinity are good as well, for starters ...Liked MIUI too ...
I might suggest another way to clean up for Sense ROMs is to use ROMCleaner, which is handy ...
For all your linking needs.

Out of curiosity, what changed between 7.1.1 and Nightly 252 that makes all that much difference?

see signature

I used to use CM7 but then I upgraded to Creamed Glacier. It does have alot of bugs but i suggest you keep an eye on it You say CM7 doesnt work? Try a Nightly Build

I've been running VU for months and have exceptional battery life. Can easily get through an entire day without needing to recharge.
Alternatively, if you just want to remove all sense components, give this a try:

I flashed darkside sense 4 for a weeks now and am happy with the performance, plus all of the additions on top of sense and stock android

I second that about creamed glacier. Keep an eye on it, it keeps getting better fast. I'm using v7 right now

THANKS!

is ICS good enough to be a daily driver though? Other than the camera problems, are there random reboots or music playback problems? I have ICS on my Samsung Vibrant and am thinking about jumping ship to the mytouch/panache for the extra 256mb of RAM...
worth it?
edit: meant to be a reply to post #13... dunno how to quote a post after the fact

Wait a few days here, there is a giant update coming out soon with the camera working and various bug fixes. But I get relatively few crashes. Some of which I'm sure are because of my beta nova launcher.

[Q] Help! Launcher Restarts

Hi! I'm on the Official Android ICS with Sense 3.6 update and the standard Sense Launcher restarts itself when I'm pressing the Home-button. I read a couple of other threads saying that turning off the Fast Boot option would fix it, but it don't work. Do you have any idea?
Edit: Sorry for posting in wrong section...
Edit 2: I've also flashed this mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1699591

Yea this is normal since the phone is really bloated with stock rom... Theres just too many things running on the background and sometimes the device shutsdown some running process like sense to free up some RAM... Atleast that was the situation on mine....
Sent from my HTC Sensation using Tapatalk

Root and flash ARHD. Has a nice mod that forces launcher in Ram if you should run out.

You can also try Ram Manager free from the market. There is a checkbox to keep launcher in memory. Works for me when I was getting Sense restarts.

[APP]Sense 4.1 Camera from the One X [08.13.12 Screenshots]

As you probably all heard the rumors about Sense 4.5 and the camera that worked its way through XDA was not completely functional.
HTC announced the One X International android 4.0.4 Sense 4.1 update rolled out. So I googled the Camera and found a flashable zip in the One X forums.
Credits for mod/zip:
ALL CREDIT GOES TO HIM, IM NOT THE ORIGINAL POSTER, JUST RE-POSTING WHAT IVE FOUND.
Disclaimer:
I'm not responsible for what you choose to do with your already rooted device, etc.
The zip won't flash. It will abort installation so just follow the steps below to install:
Screenshots:
Installation Instructions:
1. Download zip HERE (DropBox link)
2. Extract zip contents to SD Card.
3. Backup your original files individually or do a nandroid backup of your system partition.
4. Use Root Explorer (or other type app) to copy all files in zip to proper locations (as shown below
Zip contents:
--- system/app Camera.apk
--- system/etc media_profiles.xml
--- system/lib libhtccamera.so
--- system/lib libOlaEngineNew.so
5. Set all permissions to look like rw-r--r-- (ie. Like every other system file)
6. Change Owner (root explorer option press n hold and scroll to bottom) to root (0) and root (0).
7. Click on camera app once in system app directory and perms and owner are set and actually install the app.
After Install (thing to know, bugs, etc):
- All settings from previous Camera app will be there
- Video recording will work from HD and down. Camera app will close if you try the Full HD setting for video recording.
- Slow Motion video will cause the camera app to close also. Most likely kernel related.
- FFC works fine for me on picture and video...as well as a 0.3 VGA can work. Functionality seems fine.
- Touch Focus reported not working on ViperS ROM.
- Touch to take photo works great for me (on IC Evolution 2.20) and focus is clear for me as well.
Enjoy. I like it, so other may as well.

Well it was posted in the sensation forums so yes. And the OP seems to have tried it so yes.
Sent from my pyramid...

do we have to delete the original camera.apk

does it work on aosp roms?

1. Yes it is compatible with the Sensation on a Sense 4 ROM only. I'm running InsertCoin Evolution 2.20 Final. Works fine.
2. The Camera.apk will overwrite the original. Follow the steps posted to either backup the files individually or use nandroids advanced backup feature to backup the system partition.
3. Idk about AOSP. Its a Sense camera so I guess if the AOSP ROM is based off a Sense 4 base then go ahead and try it and report back.
Like I said, working great for me on Sense 4.0.

this camera mod is NOT designed for CM10, it has broken your system probably because a sense camera mod will only work on a sense rom or a sense based rom. You will probably have to reinstall your rom, its advisable to make a nandroid backup of your rom just in case things go wrong so you can revert back

Just as a heads up, this won't work on AOSP. I have the hybrid rom (PACman) on my MT4GS, and it could not install. At first, I thought I did the install wrong, but turns out it's because it's not based on a sense rom. Long story short, this won't work on most other roms except those based around the HTC Sense.
Such a shame, if one thing HTC got right, it was the camera app.
Would be nice if anyone could port the camera app and make it flashable, but gotta make do with what there is.

Sense apps require sense framework so a port would be pretty much impossible... No sense only apps will work on AOSP.

Laggy stock rom !

Hey all , I have been using my sense stock rom (3.5) but there are few things which causes lag., for example when I enable lockscreen shortcuts , and unlock using ring it lags a lot and zoom out animations are lagging too . Sometimes when I scroll my homescreen , it lags too . I'm using supercharged v6 and I'm having no partition of my card. Still I'm not able to trace the cause of this lag in stock Rom . Our explorer already have very basic version of sense 3.5 ( with limited / or almost no animations which we see in wildfire s) and still it lags . I have only limited apps installed ( about 50). Please someone suggest me how to overcome this . I'm sticking with stock Rom because I need a good battery life and switching to other custom roms won't give me a good battery life.

Just use Super Backup: SMS & Contacts for backup the important things to the SDcard, then go to Settings -> Privacy -> Factory Data Reset.
You can backup apps too, but maybe any of these apps have something corrupt and make your phone laggy, so backup and restore only important things that you really need.

Don't use those scripts. They are all just random stuff kanged from other scripts, clashing with each other and causing chaos.
If a factory reset didn't work, I'd suspect from hardware.
Also, CM has far better battery life. I had 4 days with CM10.

[Q] Sense 4 rom problems

Hi,
I think there are great Sense 4 roms out there but there's a problem with them.
Not Bulletsense, not Flyrom, not JaggyDZire, not derefas' build 7, not Apex rom, non of them work properly.
When i try to add animations to bulletsense it reboots but keeps hanging on the quietly brilliant logo, same on build 7 by derefas
With Apex sense it reboots but also keeps hanging on the same screen.
I don't know if its my fault but I like it to be solved.
Thanks!

Flyrom
hey buddy im using FlyROM v3 Revolution + FlyRom Script and its runing fine.
try to use superwipe before flashing.
it just reboot once. After installing the script it reboots, and i laugh at myself i forgot he says reboot twice after installing the script for it to work. then after that no random reboot thanks to shekhutanwar for the great rom. Godbless guys

Did u try jaggydzire latest version? It is the only sense 4 Rom working on my pico.
I am facing WiFi hotspot and USB tethering probs only.

All the sense 4 Roms are damn slow. U cant deny that explorer is made only for gingerbread. Sense 4 roms are eye candy but have to go a long way to become stable like gb roms.

Bro, I am using Jaggydesirev2-blackjack, which is too good and stable also. I haven't faced any issues here. First of all wipe data,cache And from advanced menu dalvik cache. then install the rom, hey !! don't reboot. now again install the finalizer then reboot twice. then the rom will work excellent. Wifi hotsport and usb tethering may be a little issue but else are ok. Try it, you will not be unhappy installing the same.
Hope I helped.
Thank me if I helped
