How what? All you need is to unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery and then you could flash whatever ROM you want.

No there isn't a pure google based rom yet for the oneS . Your best option for now is the cyanogenmod 10 rom, which look very close to stock google.

To sum up what was mentioned...
No, there is not currently a pure, stock, AOSP rom for the 1S. Cyanogenmod 10 is the closest you can get, as it looks and operates the most like stock, however has many additional features (both visual and performance wise). Here is the link to download CM10 for our device http://get.cm/?device=ville .
Note: CM is releasing "nightlies" which means pretty much everyday an updated rom is released to fix or add features. As of right now, the rom works great, however there are some issues with the camera (video camera does not work properly, although there is a fix).
If you have not flashed a rom to your 1S yet, you will have to do quite a bit of research to get it done. This requires unlocking your bootloader through the HTCdev website, and downloading and installing several files before you can install a new rom. This guide can help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427 .
Hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions you may have.
BTW, yes Q&A would have been the correct section, but don't sweat it. Brandonrz is apparently disturbed in some manner.

[Q] New to the Infinity with some Q's for the experts

Hi all,
I just picked up my Infinity off Craigslist the other day. I know, a little late but I have been lusting after one for quite a while but just couldn't justify the price tag. I finally found one in Amethyst gray 64mb model with keyboard dock and some other goodies for a price that I could afford so I picked it up. I have been reading the forum for a while so I was aware of what to look for and, although it does have a little bit of a loose screen, i really don't feel that bad about it for the price.
I am not new to Android so I have already unlocked and rooted it using the Asus unlock tool and motochopper. I read through all of the "All in one" posts and that lead me to install CROMI-X 4.6.9 although I was still a bit confused about which ROM to install. Is CROMI-X the new version or is it ClearROM Inheritance? The ROM I installed definitely seems a lot more snappy than the stock ROM and the device seems to be working very well.
If anyone could help me with some of the generic questions I have below I would greatly appreciate it.
Which ROM is the current favorite?
Is Data2SD really necessary?
If I move to Data2SD, can I do anything with the 64MB or does this essentially become not used?
Should I install a separate kernel than the one with the ROM? If so, Is this done through the TWRP utility just like a ROM?
One more thing, DEODEX'ed or ODEX? Do they run differently or is it just a developer thing?
I know that the activity around this device has wained but if there is one of you experts out there that wouldn't mind answering another Newbie's questions I would appreciate it.
Thanks again for the great forum and all the effort you all put into it.
Jeff

CROMI (CleanROM Inheritance) roms were based on JB 4.1. CROMi-X (CleanROM Inheritance-Xenogenesis - don''t ask) is based on JB 4.2. The CROMI roms are no longer under development - officially retired so to speak.
1: Mine? CROMiX - nothing like it! :laugh:
But that really is a matter of taste and what you crave. The CM ROMs have more customization options, the CleanROMs are designed to stay close to stock which has the advantage that they use Asus' drivers for all the hardware, which in general means: fewer conflicts and a smoother experience.
2. Most of those using Data2SD seem to report that any improvements in speed are negligible, if existent at all since about CROMiX 4.5.
If you really like to tinker and solve all kinds of problems - go ahead and try it. I have not used it myself. Seems to create more problems than it solves...
3. I think you had the choice between 3 different kernels in the Aroma installer already: _thatV3, the data2sd _that kernel and sbdags stock kernel.
If you quickly want to switch these you can just reflash the rom or: Check, I think it's post 2 or 3 of the CromiX thread. sbdags has a kernel installer which allows you to quickly change kernels without re-flashing.
Other than that Max's and Hund's kernels are popular - look for them in the Development section. And those you would flash through TWRP.
4. ODEX/DEODEX? Do you prefer vanilla or chocolate? ODEX may be just a tad stabler and faster, but that's a matter of opinion.
Hint: about 1/2 inch above the download link for CROMiX 4.6.8 is a link with an in depth discussion on exactly this question.
I can't really say that the activity around this device has "wained". sbdags keeps us pretty busy flashing! :cyclops:
I almost groan when he releases yet another incarnation. Until I flashed it - then I dance and sing. You think he can't make CROMi-X any better each time! And then he does....

1. Chromi-X (majority of TF700 users are on this rom, however it's up to you to decide among other great roms)
2. IMO it doesn't make such a great differences on the speed of the tablet, maybe a little. I have tried it and i find it a little pointless. What it does is that it gives you a higher score on Quadrant - it's an app that evaluate the score of your tablet. With or without, it doesn't make much difference on the user experience.
3. Yes, you should if you want the latest kernel. You can flash the rom without the kernel and it will not make any changes to your kernel. I suggest you try Max kernel.
4. ODEX if you're normal user like me.

Odexed CROMI-X 4.6.9 (i.e., 4.6.8 plus the 4.6.9 system patch), no data2sd (finicky and error-prone setup with marginal profits at best; I've used it for a while, and the only tangible benefit is apps installing a few seconds faster).
And welcome to the club!
PS (/EDIT): ODEXed because it installs faster (readu p on the difference here: http://www.redmondpie.com/odexed-vs-deodexed-the-difference-between-the-two-android-roms-explained/ or search for _that's Debunking Tonight feature on the forum. ). You'd only want DEODEXed if you're going to theme it yourself. If you want to theme the ODEXed version, look at pjc21's work -- it's great!

A big thanks to all. I can't believe how quickly my Q's were answered. It looks like I am in pretty good shape with the exception of using a different kernel if I would like. I am all about having a stable machine and just using it so I may be there already but I am also a tinkerer. Since I now have the ability to do Nandroid backups I am basically able to find a good setup and not worry about getting back to it. That was why I knew I needed to be unlocked. Any other input is very welcome and I am glad to be part of this group.
Thanks again
Jeff

Where do I find the Max kernel? I have looked all over and can't even find many references to it.
Thanks

I just tried to flash the V4 RC1 zip in TWRP and it failed. I was able to find the V3 kernel though in the CORMI-X post and it flashed fine. Am I doing something wrong? should I go to V4?
Thanks again

Have you checked the MD5 checksum? (I use Hashtab for checking, really convenient: http://www.implbits.com/HashTab/HashTabWindows.aspx#) The download may have been corrupted. You could disable signature checking (temporarily), but please only do that when you are absolutely sure that the file is healthy!
I haven't used MaxKernel myself, but judging from the changelog it might be best to get v4 on there -- I see optimizations in code, sio being re-added... Having said that, I'm on the new _that v3 and I love it. Overclockability is nice and all, but when it is unstable (judging from the thread and some earlier comments in the forums, I would not deem that kernel stable to my standards).

Having some trouble finding a ROM

I am still on the stock 5.0 ROM and was looking to change it up. I have not been on Android since the original EVO 4G so I am a bit lost. I already have root and TWRP recovery on. I am looking for an optimized ROM that is close to stock. I have looked at LiquidSmooth but it looks like that is only 4.4 and I saw xtrasmooth but could not find the download link. Could someone provide a link to good stable ROM that is easy to flash? Also should gapps be flashed immediately after flashing the rom? Thanks in advance.

Every ROM is easy to flash. Just look in the Development or Original Development section, there's plenty to choose from. Also, the first posts usually state whether you need to flash Gapps or not.

I know how to flash, but I am just not sure which ROM to use. So many of them have a bunch of different acronyms in the title that I have absolutely no idea what they mean. Also some of them require you to also flash a kernel or a radio which would complicate things a bit further. Just looking for something that contains everything I need. Also for gapps, my question was if I should be flashing it immediately after flashing the ROM while still in recovery or if I should reboot first then go back into recovery?

Kernel or radio shouldn't be needed anywhere, maybe just in case of F2FS. There are many great ROMs to choose from, just pick one and try it out. Just be sure to read the OP. Also, you won't be able to boot into the system properly if Gapps are missing. Some ROMs have them included, others don't.

Thanks for your help. I have been looking at this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...v3-0-hammerhead-t2616300/page713#post58172446
In the title it states 4.4.4/5.0.2. What is meant by that? Which one is it? Is it as simple as booting into recovery, wiping all, flashing the ROM, flash gapps, and rebooting?

It's best if you read descriptions of roms at their thread. Also is good to read some feedback and reports by people who allready flash it. But the best way to figure it out, which rom is best for you, is to flash it by yourself.

I do read the descriptions, but there are some things that I don't understand being new. A lot of those threads already assume that you should know what these things mean. I couldn't figure out the liquidsmooth rom since it looks like they stopped development in December and the only gapps I found is for a different version. So I got kind of confused as to what I needed.

Understand that. But if you ask something like you, you will get a lot a different answers which can just confused you a little more. Also, you will get the answers by people who do not have same taste/expectations like you. So, best way is to figure it out by yourself.

I would suggest Cyanogenmod. Its very easy to install and very customizable, its close to stock as you wanted, there are stable versions and nightlies(can be unstable/bring small updates/improvements), cyanogenmod version 11 is based on kitkat,however cyanogenmod 12 stable version is in the works and it is based on lollipop, but there are nightlies out now.

'Simple' procedure for updating my one plus one to lollipop

I have been given a one plus one by my son who has upgraded to a one plus x

I see a lot of comments about rooting etc but I havent really found a simple definitive guide on how to change the OS
..any other suggestions are welcome
thanks

There is no best ROM, only the one that YOU like more. You will have to go through the ROM section and look at them and make your choice. What you like is not what i like and so on, for example i am very happy with the stock ROM and don't see why i would change. But some people hate it, so to each his own, as they say.

My TF300 is running slow and has a lag

I have a TF300 which I brought New in 2012. I rooted and installed SlimKat Rom android 4.4.3. I dont use the TF300 much , but when I do it runs very slow and is laggy. Can anyone advise me on what I should do to help the tablet run smoother? Thank You I would appreciate the help.

Yes, I can. Go ahead and install KatKiss - Nougatella #033. First of all you need Kang TWRP. To avoid any issues get your device back on the latest Asus firmware 4.2 (10.6.1.27.5).
After that follow exactly the install instructions in post #1 of the below thread.
PS:
As far as I can remember one year ago you have been on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/transformer-tf300t/development/rom-t3453702 with the intention to do it. You got many advices on your questions from several users. But it seems you didn't.
