Hello everyone,
So today was my first day into the world of unlocking, rooting, and flashing custom Roms onto my android device and I have a few questions I'm hoping can be answered easily by someone with much more experience. I have an HTC One on at&t also.
So I downloaded

and then,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356654
I got both Roms running besides I realized that my phone was stuck on 3g/H no matter what I did in the settings. Now I followed both steps perfectly but I'm still with no luck.
So after feeling defeated I decided to download Android Revolution 12.1 and everything worked perfectly. Full Lte it says but under the network tab it says my mobile type is HSDPA at -93 dBm 10 asu.
What's the deal? Am I missing a step? Can someone please help me? I would really enjoy getting the Google Editions to run with LTE because I prefer stock Android. Well thanks for your time guys. Please help a Rom noob out!

Hey there folks!
this is my fisrt post on the forum so here goes.
I've got my first android phone a couple of weeks ago and since then I did the S-OFF and rooted it. I read the boards here, i maneged to get new roms on it without any problems and I am very happy with the performance of the phone now.
The only thing is that I can not get 3G data connectivity only EDGE.
I live in a place that always has 3G and it seems a little odd.
If anyone has encoutered this problem please let me know if and how to resolve it.
Thanks.
Phone: HTC Desire S S-OFF
Radio: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
Kernel: 2.6.35.13-Tiamat_Saga-v1.0.4+
ROM: CyanogenMod-7.1.0-RC1-IncS
Have you tried with another ROM? ZuluGen or the inofficial nighthly? These are not ports from Inc S, but made directly from Cyanogen source.
I think it's worth to give it a try... Just don't forget to do a NAND backup before flashing a new ROM! (This can directly be done in ROM Manager when choosing the ROM to flash. )
I assume you know how to use Titanium Backup to port all your settings and apps to the new ROM. If not, no worries... it's fairly simple and actually self-explanatory!
If help is needed, feel free to ask here!

Epic fail.
I have a European 3G Xoom, which ICS version shall I flash, if I'd like to get some 4.0 fun? I know that 3G won't work, but I don't want to brick my Xoom, better ask before.

I have a US 3G XOOM that hasn't been upgraded to 4G and I flashed the 4G ROM which caused an issue with the radio staying awake non stop searching for a signal. This ate battery like crazy. The EOS dev suggested that I flash the WiFi version of the ROM and it worked like a charm. That is, of course, if you don't use your 3G and run WiFi only all the time like I do. Otherwise, you're out of luck for now until someone cooks up a ROM specifically for 3G devices. Also, you need to make sure it would even work for non US XOOMs first, obviously.
I'm not sure if the devs even read this section, but if you don't get an answer from one here, you should PM them or ask in one of their threads. They've been very helpful to me and answered every question I needed help with. I hope you get it worked out. It's an excellent ROM.
Thanks, I was thinking about trying the wifi version. But I better ask before. I had some bad luck recently flashing 4.0 on my Nexus S. So I prefer asking before doing.
I have been running the EOS wingray rom and so far everything is stable and working except the faceunlock and silly faces effect. Check it out.
this Rom is realy good but you need fastboot to install it:

and you have to use a alternate recovery.img,

zip the universal xoom root

It runs on my 601 like Hell
I flashed ICS (WiFi only) on my MZ601. While all run wells, I am unable to go back to Honeycomb. My tablet model (in About Tablet) is now Xoom instead of MZ601. Unable to flash the system.img file using Fastboot.
So in case you'd like to go back to Honeycomb to collect an OTA update to ICS, it might be an issue.
It has arrived ... work VERY well.

A friend of mine just got a droid 2 global and wants to install a custom rom that is very stable and fast, with no bloat. I personally am a sprint user with an EVO 4G, so looking through the development section is a little greek to me. He just rooted, and intalled CWM Recovery using something called bootstrap.. not sure what that is, but he seems to be rooted fine and can boot into CWM just fine. He a few states away so I am helping him by telephone.
Can anyone suggest a good rom to install. I don't think he is looking for a MIUI type ROM as this is his first android phone and wants the real feel of the android OS. Maybe a good ROM/Kernel combo would be great. Thanks!
There are a few floating around in the Dev section..

Hello, welcome to the forums.
Here are the cyanogenmod forums for your device, and here are the downloads for the mod for your device.
Finally, here are the instructions on how to install CM on your device.
Remember: always backup!
Edit: All I've posted are for CyanogenMod7. Your device is not officially supported by CyanogenMod9.
Here is an unofficial version of CM9 for your device, look it up before installing it however, since it is unofficial and thus it is not fully supported.
See forum for your device .
Or easily .
Get CWM , and download the ROM and flash it
Dear Experienced Users,
I have rooted my Samsung S Relay 4G SGH-T699 (previously unlocked and can use any sim) - I used CWM recovery, etc.
I love this phone.
The only problem is I want to get rid of all the T-Mobile branding crap, especially the Wifi Tethering Problem.
My experience: I use ODIN to flash, I also use ADB and SU. I also love experimenting
Is there some modified stock rom which has a tethering fix? The splash screens I can get rid of using other means.
I would really value some advice - I know you guys are all geniuses!!!
Best regards,

There are threads with debloated Stock images. There's also some custom image alternatives (Such as CyanogenMod 10.2, and new betas of CyanogenMod 11.0) Just have a look through the forums here, they're not hard to find.
Thanks

Please, Please - could you point me in the right direction? I find Cyanogen a bit alien... I'd prefer a debloated thing.
I really need help. I will even pay
