Switching between MIUI and Cm7?

I want to switch between MIUI and CM7 and I was hoping that I could just flash each one whenever I want. Im currently running CM 7.0.3.1 for the HTC evo 4G if that helps. Thanks for any help

You can just make sure u wipe everything before u flash it and it should go alright

Make a backup of your current rom in recovery. Wipe factory/data, cache, davlik, flash the other rom, flash gapps, then make a backup of that rom. Then you can switch between the backups in recovery.

First of all thanks for the help guys but I think I didn't explain what I was looking for very well. I wa hoping that I wouldn't have to wipe and stuff. I wanted to just be able to keep my data folder and just have to flash the Rom each time without having to wipe and after restore

You'll have to do a full wipe whenever switching to a different ROM. The only time you do not have to do a full wipe is when you are changing nightlies or updating your current ROM.

All right thanks. U mind telling me which one is better in ur opinions?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Actually their both good! I started out w/ CM, the nightlies have a few bugs at times, but most of them eventually get resolved..!! At the moment though i use Evo Decks and/or MIUI, just because everything works w/ these roms and they agree w/ Tiamat kernels very well, fast and smooth and battery life is great!!! If you like changing the look of your phone often, then i'd go with MIUI coz of the theme manager...

I like CM7 but I kinda just reminds me of my old moto Droid but Miui thats just a turn in a new direction. I would choose MIUI over CM7 but both are great! Right now im running the rom from E prophecy, its just sense but im a flash-a-holic so I wanted to try it out.

All right awesome thanks a lot guys. Tonight I'm gonna titanium backup and then flash Miui. Thanks again guys

switch to savage zens rom. Its super fast, stable, and fuzes elements of both MIUI and CM7.
I just switched to it from MIUI, and I ran that for a week after a month of using CM7, and I am in absolute love. I encourage anyone to give it a shot.

Just a heads up if you want 4G/Wimax MIUI doesn't have it yet. CM7 and Savaged-Zen do.

Im gonna download it tonight and try it out. Thanks
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

i switch between miui, cm7, and savaged-zen pretty often. the latest miui builds seem slow on my phone no matter what kernel, and the latest builds of savaged zen dont agree with my phone, so im stuck with cm7 for the moment which is not half bad

Well looks like nostalgia kicked in because it still prefer CM7 out of the 3 roms mentioned here unless anybody has any other AOSP rom suggestions

I love MIUI UI too

anyone have issues rooting a g2x with stock 2.3

i rooted a g2x i had with stock 2.3.3. i changed the recovery first and then added an eagalblood rom and it was always crashing and had issues with the apn settings.. please let me know
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

happen to me before too. i did
clear data factory reset
then reinstall the zip/rom
i think it is the cache or setting that is not clear from before. or the gapp zip

Did you try any other roms? Also what is your procedure for flashing a new rom?

@phburks i only did it with the eagalblood rom because i liked it more out of the ones i saw.. the way i flash the rom is to first change the recovery then i install the rom on the sd card and run recovery and flash it like that.

[Q] Help Cynagenmod setting forces close!!

When I try to open cyanogenmod settings or the browser it just forces close. I'm running on nscollab 1.0.60 with Trinity kernel!

Try installing setcpu and seeing if that fixes it.
Just install it no need to open it.

Have you tried a fresh install? Always works ;-)

What do you mean by a fresh install?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium

A fresh install means wiping the dalvik cache and factory resetting the phone in recovery mode before flashing the rom. Best use titanium back up if you want to keep your apps

Do you remember doing anything to your phone before the fcs started?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk

If it always has been like this, you've most likely corrupted the ROM file during download.
Download it again and install it after doing a factory reset & caches wipe.

Thanx bro it worked!!!!

You need to flash the GApps (Google Apps) if you haven't already

Ok yes I am very new how do I do that

The same way you flashed CM, download, put on the root of your sd card, and flash them. I believe these are the latest: http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip

Thank you so much it works great thank you again

So you obviously know way more then I do about this what is the best rom in your opinion? And does that app pack work on all roms or just cyanogen mod?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

It works on all ROMs except the CM9 alpha that was released. Until you're less new you might want to hold off on that until there is a stable release.

Thanks the cyanogen nightly that I installed is slower then the stock one .just wondering what roms are best
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

Google Euroskank and go to the first one that pops up, hit the P999 tab and grab the latest and grab any of the custom kernels that strike your fancy or do what I started to do and try one for a week or two and see how I like it.

I thought those were only for the O2x not g2x
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

Nope, just make sure you choose P999 from their page. The official CM got was down and I liked their nightlies and had no problems I didn't have on the stable release.

So what would be the best in your opinion to use
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

Kernel?
It depends: If you want battery life get Trinity ELP (I that's the one, the one which only allows to OC to 1.1GHz) if you want pure power go for Faux, if you want a balance (don't know if it has Voodoo sound though) go for Dragon for CM7 (not OTA).

So I take it that you can use different kernals with different roms and you flash them the same as the roms?

Most, if not all of the newer custom roms are debloted, meaning the bloat has been removed in OTA based roms. If its AOSP or CM based, it's built without bloat.

[Q] Changing stuff in Hyperdrive rom??

I want to add some things that I didn't when I installing the rom. Do I have to wape factory reset again or just go through and install the things I want to add??
Thanks
