hi all, I have got problem with USB connection, I can use only "charge only" mode, when I switch to another mode it return back to charge only after few seconds, where is the problem?
Have you tried with a different USB port or USB cable?
yes I tried 2 different PCs and cable is not problem because in recovery usb storage works fine
What rom are you using
You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother. - Albert Einstein.*
runnymede v2 and I tried also runnymede v3..same problem
Have you tried any other (more up to date ) Roms? When was it last working?
it worked on stock ics rom and these runnymede roms are the only I tried, can you recommend fully working sense 3.5 rom? (not ics)
What's wrong with ics? AFAIK no sense 3.5 Roms are still under active development, so I would really recommend a newer Rom
But if you really want to stick with sense 3.5, endymion is probably the most stable, fully working etc.
does ics roms have custom kernels?

I think that you need to go away and do a LOT of reading if that's the sort of question that you feel you need to ask.

Read the op of the Roms that appear near the top of the list in the development section, they're mostly the most up to date ones. That should give you some idea of the current state of development for our device. Then you could decide which might interest you, and read the recent comments in those threads (at least the comments since the last release).
I installed ICE DS and usb works again

Hey
So I've got two questions concerning Custom ROMs.
1) How can Custom ROMs, eg. "[ROM][New Sense][06 Mar]RCMixHD v3.4[...]" include HTC Sense in it? I thought Sense was closed source and developed only by HTC.
2) Where can you find what Android versions these Custom Sense ROMs are using? Take this already mentioned "RCS MixHD" for example. It doesn't seem to be stated in the opening post what Android is it based on. I suppose it's 2.2.x since Sense hasn't yet been converted for 2.3.x, right?
Bump? Anybody?

With a bit of trickery it is sometimes possible to extract things like sense from another ROM and reuse it in different ROMs.

Usually by either asking the creator or flashing it and seeing for yourself .

Hi,
I was using SGS I 9000 and with the official 2.3.3 DDJV6 version which is very very slow. After that i have tried so many leaked firmwares but unfortunately none of them works well for me..none of them are stable & bugfree.
Right now i am using DDJV9 with voodoo lagfix. This is also not running effeciently..phone gots very very hot upto 55C.
Kindly help me reviving my sgs experince. Please kindly also share the link also for the same.
Thanks alot in advance.
No roms not even OEM roms are free of bugs mate, try flashing some other custom roms until u find the one that suits ur needs.
I agree none of them is bug free. But Whichever leaked firmware i have used is not not even stable. I just want stable & fast firmware.
People kindly help.

No one will be able to tell you what will run well on your device with your set up. Try roms out till you rind one that works for you. Each device is different and so are the way we use them.
Try ROM Mintberry, link to post

Right now i am little confused. Till now i have only checked the different firmwares not tried any ROM.
Are firmware and ROM are 2 different things or same? Sorry if it is too basic..
Firmware and ROM are sort of intertwined. The firmware mostly relates to the underlying infrastructure that the ROM depends upon. Things like the kernel and radio. The ROM is the actual implementation of the OS. When you flash new firmware, you also get a new ROM along with it.
Some custom ROMs, such as Darky's ROM, are very closely related to the stock ROM, and have mostly performance and cosmetic changes. Other ROMs such as Mintberry MIUI and Onecosmic are quite significantly different from any of the stock ROMs.
They also depend on particular parts of the stock firmware. Onecosmic and MIUI both require gingerbread bootloaders to have been previously installed from a stock firmware package.
If you want my two cents on what to use, I am currently using Onecosmic RC2.11 (waiting for the phone to charge to full, then going to install RC3) and it is excellent. It is based on Ice Cream Sandwich, it runs quickly, and it looks beautiful.
There is a link to the XDA thread here.
Hi, I have recently rooted my Desire S, with revolutionary, clockwork etc, and I currently ported this rom HTC_DESIRE_S_2.3.5-2.10.401.4.zip
Everything is working just fine, but theoretically, when I decide to port a new rom, how would I know which will work, and which won't?
Actually, I'm waiting until ICS is released for desire s, so I can find it and install it...
Are there any methods to identify which rom would be compatible?
Thank you!

hey mate
your're actually talking about two different things: porting a ROM and flashing a ROM.
Porting means, you take a ROM from another device and modify it so it works on your device too.
flashing means, you take a ROM which is already optimized for your device
and install it, so you wipe the stock firmware and get a custom rom.
which of the two things is what you want to do? i think its just the flashing.
so you can take any ROM from the "development section", and if you follow the guides that you can find everywhere here im sure you will be succesfull and happy with it.
bytheway
there is no "best" ROM for your device. it all depends on what you need and want. there are alot sense 3.5 Roms, Endymion 3.4 is the one i would recommend. you can also try AOSP ROMs (android open source project, means no sense), cyanogenmod7 could be a good first choice. and you can also try ics right now, since there are at least 3 (?) ICS AOSP ROMs right now:
CM9, Virtuous Quattro RC3, IceColdSandwich
have fun!
Yes I meant "flashing" a rom
Thanks for all the information. That's the general idea I have as well, however I had this question because after I flashed another rom (official rom through htc sync - that could have been the problem) over my first flashed one , the phone was "bricked"....

i would never recommend to flash an official ROM over a custom ROM. But anyways, i think if you would have done a full wipe before flashing the official rom you wouldnt have got a "you call it brick"
a real "BRICK" is a useless phone, where there is no way to use it again.if there is still a way, its no brick.. but who cares about definitions
I recommend you to flash the ROMs only through recovery mode. AND ALWAYS DO A FULL WIPE BEFORE FLASHING A NEW ROM. very important
and dont forget to backup as always
Yes you are absolutely right. I'll have that in mind the next time I'll decide to flash a new one
Yeah the device wasn't completely useless, it hanged at boot...but I guess that was due to not following the right procedure as you previously described..
Thanks eyahl
Start flashing different roms and trying them for a day or two. First
Sens 3.0 and then sense 3.5 roms to see the difference. Only then you will know which rom is best for you.
+1 for Endymion 3.4,
+1 for Endymion
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
+1 Endymion
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
edymion, will try it
+1266592.23 for Endymion

Each ROM type suits different personal tastes, so there isn't an 'best' ROM for everyone. Trial and Error which ones suit you!
General opinions:
Stock
Pro: Straight from HTC, *newest kernel/drivers*, least likely to have compatibility issues.
Cons: HTC is slow to release updates, and sense interface is usually resource hungry.
Sense-like
Pro: usually keep the Sense interface, but custom kernals offer speed / various other improvements.Runnymead versions are kernals ported across from HTC Sensation (which offer some of the goodies like Beats Audio etc. that were not originally developed for Saga.
Cons: Sense interface is resource hungry...
CyanogenMod based
Pro: offer lots of customisations
Cons: not the most user friendly
AOSP
Pro: Roms from the android source, usually less resource hungry, so lighter and faster.
Cons: Obviously, no sense.
ICS Alpha/Beta
Not strictly a new category, but builds from the new Android 4.0 (ICS).
Currently some things (like camera) isn't fully working yet.
Note: new Desire S may suffer from camera/video lag bug with non-stock / non-sense ROMs, this is due to HTC putting in new hardware / driver into the new DS phones and the other kernels not reflecting this change yet.
Personally, I use SenseMOD Lite V1.2 build 2 as it is one of the few AOSP like builds that don't have the camera bug. Oxygen would have been best choice for me but unfortunately camera bug makes it unusable.
Hey guys. I don't want to drive over your feet, but I think the OP is already very satisfied with all those replies. specially the post above is really trying to help, but you spend much time to type what has already been written on the first page.
I appreciate your intend to help, bit I think the OP isn't gonna read this anymore..
Btw: endy!...

Hi,
I'm not a noob in rooting and using customized ROMs on Android but I AM a noob with the TF101. I have tried to work through some of the information provided in the different topics and I am still trying to wrap my head around stuff like ICS, AOKP, cornerstone and whatnot.
What I am trying to find is a slim, stable and reasonable fast ROM that cleans out most of the Asus bloatware. WIFI connectivity is important to me, but 3G is not.
Can anybody (pretty please) recommend a reliable ROM that would be a good point to start with. It would just be a lot easier to work my way through the details if I had a ROM to start with.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Henning

Revolver and ARHD are modified from stock ROM from ASUS. CM9 and AOKP are based on AOSP with modification to work on Transformer.
If you are migrating from stock ROM, ARHD or Revolver will give you a similar feel, they are both good ROM to start with. I am currently using ARHD.
Thank you for the help tingtan. (* searches forum for an explanation of "AOSP" *). I am assuming ARHD is short for Revolution HD?
A lot of the newbie guides point to "Prime" ROMs of various versions (like the "Asus Reference Thread" is pointing to Prime V1.4). Anything worth mentioning about those?
Also, there is a lot of talk if random reboots on ICS, so would it be more advisable to pick for example a non-ICS ARHD?

Yes, ARHD is Android Revolution HD. Prime has not been updated for a long time, last update was Nov 12, 2011, for custom ROM, it means the author is not maintaining it anymore.
ICS has some problems, app compatibility, battery drain, random reboots. I like to try new stuff (have several phones and tablets), so not a problem for me. Will get stable over time.
If you want a stable version, use Gingerbread (Android version 3.2), Prime, Revolver and ARHD are all stable and fast ROM. Another added bonus for Gingerbread is you can use OC/UV kernel.
You can monitor if a ROM is active and stable, read the forum in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1107
Again tingtan, thanks for your reply. I think I find my way from here
Im trying KRAKD now. So far it seems quite nice.
Also tingtan, 3.x is called Honeycomb , Gingerbread is 2.3

Oops! Thanks for clearing up my error. Guess I getting old
I tried Revolver, ARHD and KRAKD. Have been using KRAKD before upgrading to ICS, tried AOKP for couple of days before settle down on ARHD 3.1.0.
Yes, KRAKD has been a nice ROM, hangs several times a week recently (maybe not ROM related), that is why I have decided to upgrade to ICS.
I actually got spoiled with ICS after having it for one day (official OTA), so I just had to change to an ICS rom. I went with team EOS build 12 and so far its been quite good.
As the title says, I am searching for a ROM+Kernel combo that enables DLSR control via OTG. I am currently on the latest ViperOneS, which supports OTG for mice keyboards and mass memory, but not remote control.
Also tried to use a USB Y cable for additional power, to no avail. Someone suggested that it's kernel related and I should downgrade from 3.4, but I haven't found definite proof in the forums.
So, has anyone managed to make it work, or has any advice? Thanks a lot in advance to all the community

Found a working solution, see post 3
Quick update - works with BAKED blackbean 9 and 3.0 kernel
So, i decided to make a quick test. After a nandroid, I wiped and flashed BAKED blackbean. Now otg works with my D7000, although I still don't know if it's sense vs AOSP or the kernel version that's making the magic. Hope someone can clarify.. In the meantime I'll keep testing
[UPDATE]
So, I jumped on the 4.3 bandwagon with droyd's Odyssey ROM. This means AOSP and 3.4 kernel, and also sadly means no DSLR support whatsoever. Damn. At this point I'd like to know if there's a good stable Sense ROM, 3.0 kernell-driven, possibly JB since ICS apparently requires an external USB cable, because no power comes from the mini port of the phone.
tl;dr : 1) kernel 3.4 is almost certainly the reason for DSLR OTG not working
2) I need a Sens JB rom with 3.0 kernel
NEWSFLASH!
Found a working combination:
- MaximusHD ROM
-ElementalX Kernel v. 6.0
I read among the changelog "otg whitelist removed" so I gave it a shot and it works! Yay!!
