HTC Evo 4g and Shift Roms - EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Will Evo 4g roms work on Evo shift 4g? Just asking, not actually going to try. See I was guessing because the only physical difference is the keyboard, would this mean it would work. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

No, that's a completely different phone.
Take a look in the dev section for the rooms that are available.

Yea, i see. So what roms do you recomend, like the best jellybean rom?

There is no "best" rom for any version.

The best thing you can do for yourself, and the safety of your device is read. Then read some more. Then when you are done read some more. Knowledge is the only thing standing between you, and a paperweight. As to what Rom is best. That is a question that has no definitive answer. There are many variables. The greatest one being the user of the device. I would suggest learning the flashing, and Nandroid processes to a " T " . It will save you a lot of time, and headaches. It will also help you find what is best suited to your needs for a daily driver Rom.

Also, if you find a ROM you'd like to try but the links are broken, you can post in the thread asking if someone can mirror a link. Most of the time the answer is yes.

If any1 is selling this phone or want to donate it pm me. I need it for rom building.

lol why bother when you have muc better roms here, for example Sense 2.1+2.0 mix from Baadnewz, or RCMix, and coolexe and damo are working on sense 3 ROMs, all of them already have gb 2.3.3 or 2.3.4...
It's my personal opinion, but even if they updated to 2.3.4 I would have a custom ROM on my phone... Why not be original?

Fair enough
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
makes me that much more appreciative of all the Devs work here on xda!
Epic fail
Oho, what a surprise
Oh well i'not jealous anyway, Oxygen is good enough, so close to stock that it's probably even better then the buggy port they would have fed us with. The only thing i'd want from google is launcher and a browser rewritten so that they can use our gpu...other than that any update sounds quite pointless to me.
If we're not getting any "revelations" about that coming to ics (and then i SEE it working with my own eyes, because they LIED about 3.0 getting it), then wp7 here i come babe...
For those asking : "Why so interested in the official update ?"
Our great Devs will take it, and then modd it, it'll be SO fast, as like everything is perfect, then a custom kernel, then a DAMN GREAT ROM....

Where are the roms

Came from a G2 that had lots of rom options. Thought this phone had better rom support. I've s off, androoted. Not finding any roms worth flashing or that work completely.

Never said I didn't find a rom. I don't find any that are not in some way broke. Hence the reason asking for roms worth flashing. So far everyone points to betas or stock. I'm on stock. Don't you think I was in dev section to have got s off, root and unlocked boot loader?

I think I know what he means, he wants to know why our dev section isn't absolutlely over crowded with 15 of the same base ROMS with different tweaks or a different devs name on it. And the answer is the devs are giving us everything they CAN, and if you feel development is lacking blue did one hell of a job on writing up a dev reference guide so feel free to pitch in and start developing if its not to much to ask? otherwise ill just look at you like another end user who only uses xda to better his/her device and does nothing to further development

Word on CM 9/10 on the MyTouch 4G

Ciwrl (Abhisek Devkota) is a CyanogenMod Head Moderator, & part of the community staff
He replied to my comment on Google+ about CM9/CM10 not being on the MyTouch 4G yet, and gave a clear reply saying that its in the works
"Moe Nasrallah
CyanogenMod... Please start supporting the MyTouch 4G with newer releases :/ .. The most we got from you is CM7.2. We'd love to get our hands on CM9, or surprise us with CM10 builds. There are devices with lower specs than ours that got CM9, and I don't know why our device's community got ditched like that :c
Abhisek Devkota
+Moe Nasrallah you and the vision are in the same boat: broken OMX (which we can rewrite relatively quickly) and broken camera drivers(which we have to rewrite completely).
Until we rewrite the camera drivers (which is in progress), we won't release a 9/10 build. No one is 'ditching' anybody, things just take time.
-ciwrl (Disclosure, I am a vision owner)
Moe Nasrallah
+Abhisek Devkota thanks for the clarification  "

This is absolutely great news! I was sure we'd never get official CM9 or CM10

Awesome! But if I remember correctly, didn't we get cm7 rather late as well compared to other devices? So we probably will be getting cm10 late. Forget cm9, I want cm10!

Porting that rom will be awesome. :fingers-crossed: And yeah, Cnote is a boss at porting. God knows how many roms he has ported so far for this device
Did anyone ask for a jellybean port? Cnote's got it covered.

Btw, the problems with the ROM is no superuser. Go got andoidsu.com/superuser/ and download 3.2-RC2 and the binary. Choose the ARM version
Edit: I know the HTC Vision section will have one tomorrow, according to one dev. If that one does have trackpad working and all the other stuff, hope someone can port it. Idk if I can, not experienced enough

The Desire S has a jellybean rom, but isnt as stable as this one. Hopefully we'll also get a rom built from scratch (source). I'd love to port, help out, and develop. I got an intro programming class this coming semester. Where did you learn to port? The forums here? I'm really interested

Old Good Roms

I'm trying to find some of the old good ROMs and all links seem to be down. Namely I was hoping to find TDJ's darkside sense, faux123's orangeglacier, and any of the gingerbread sense ROMs that were stable. I went back to Royal Ginger a while back and while I love it for the most part, but the camera feels like it uses about 20 pixels to create an image.
Does anyone have these stashed away that could maybe upload them to a file sharing site for me?
I would greatly appreciate it.
Orical might have them. PM him. Also, you might try Insert Coin. It's a pretty good GB Sense ROM. I never had a single issue with it.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on Nov. 13th. Still waiting.

As estallings15 said, AOSPx is a good ICS ROM that's stable and reliable. I use it as my daily driver and I have no complaints.

Well there is no best ROMs. It is all preference. Also, saying what is the best ROM is against the rules. I suggest looking in the development sections and scrolling thru. No one here is going to tell you what to flash. If you like viper just five it go. If you want clean ROM then flash it.
A perfect example is the fact I stopped liking sense, but you may still want to stick with it. Get my point?
