Sorry for all the questions but please help i am willing to make a dontation to somebody who can help me.

This is a place for discussion for more people who are experienced, thats why its called "development" as for themes those are under the "themes" section.....
if your looking for n00b resources for full on n00bs please don't post annoying threads here. Learn to look **** up on google and in under 10 seconds you would have found
http://theunlockr.com/category/howto/android_how_tos/
for how to root, one click rom install, and how to restore back to factory. Or even above your own damn post there are n00b resrouces.
as for ROMs this is the DEVELOPMENT section. So people need to stop asking for a perfect rom. Use cyanogen stable roms if you want stablility. If not ROMs come out every 2-3 days for evil and every couple weeks for other ROMs. They are NOT stable
Qtek=fastest most stable does not work on most MT3G (this is believed to be kernel issues with 2.7xxxx)
Evil= 50/50 depending on his builds, he likes to f* stuff up alot and patch within a few hours
cyanogen 4.1.11.1=android 1.6 AOSP(android open source project)

I did do a search and i did find that site although since i am such a noob i dint even know what rooting my Magic was for :/.
Could you tell me what rooting is for ? eg if i root my device once does that mean i can use all the stuff you guys are uploading eg just put a theme on it straight away?
Cheers James

rooting your phone gives you controll of the / files of yoru phone. It lets you install roms and such. i suggest looking at the latest video of rooting your magic and the video of how to install a rom. it'll put you right at par with where alot of users on this forum are at. only like 15 mins of video too.

[Q] experiences with the different ROMs.....any tipps ?

Hallo here in forum
today i want to flash my "new" htc tytn2. a friend gave it to me as present, because he had his new i-phone.
he told me, that he already flashed a few roms (from xda-dev) on the phone, so i think i can use the "Flashing Your First Kaiser Rom (For Noobs)"-guide from STEP 5 to flash my new baby...... am i right ??
i mean i dont need to do the hardSPL-part, right ?
im just going to doublesheck a few things here, because i dont want to do no mistake.
then he told me, that i just should look witch is the most popular rom (i think he ment the thread with the most posts or clicks.)
i followed his hint and found the "HyperDragon IV Mega"-rom
but then takin a closer look i realised that the links to the rom are down:
"...Admin edit: links removed due to legal complaint from microsoft...."
hmm,....i know it is hard to say "witch is the best rom"...but can anyone give me his special tip.
i think it is not a good way to just take the rom with the most posts in the supportthread, because it is possible, that a rom just lunched and is better than olders,etc.
is there any thread with a list of most popular roms and a discussion about them ???
greetings revnu

105 views and noone has an idea ?
isnt there a list of all roms and a kind of ratingsystem to make it easier for someone to decide wich rom to try out ?

There is unwillingness to do any kind of rating, etc. out of respect for the chefs and their hard work, which is voluntarily done.
I know how it is to come to this scene for the first time. You've read the flashing guide. That's good. Take a look at the various offerings. Consider the features. Read the comments. There are a lot of excellent roms to try. Some are lite, so you can add features to your liking. (probably something you should try later after you become more familiar with the flashing scene) Some are loaded according to the cook's taste. After a few tryouts you might even become a flashing junkie.
Good Success!

ok i understand.
at time i have the black styluz mod. i dont know wich version, but i have to flash a new rom because my version have bugs.
im going to flash the black styluz v5 because i dont have a clue wich rom could be good
but i think there are a few roms out there wich a very popular, because they have win6,5 or other things.
okok i try to tell it in short:
I AM NOT ABLE TO DECIDE WICH ROM TO TAKE BECAUSE THEIR ARE TO MUCH AND THEY HAVE NO STRUKTURE
from my later experiences then flashing older phones i always found such thing is a "list of avabable roms".... is their such a threath ?
sry 4 bad english

"list of available roms" . . . For the most part, that is what this forum is. All Kaiser roms found on XDA are listed here, on a thread by thread basis. You mentioned bugs. . . You'll have problems on many if you don't flash to a stock rom first. Each cook offers the recommended procedure for flashing their rom. Their recommendations are worth following.

ur right....im sry
ill check few roms and decide ma own. till now i had experience with black stylus.
the error i had (could not send sms) was because of my handyprovider...
anyway i now flashed the newest black stylus (full) over the older sylus version......without flashing to a stock rom first. i read the instruktion on his site, but i think i missed the part...

Once you become a little more familiar with things it won't be so troublesome. I hope you will enjoy it. The ol' Kaiser is sinking into the sunset, but it is still a great phone, and many of these roms bring out the best this device has to offer.
Good success to you. . .

There are so many to try? It's good. You will not get bored by your phone!
First, read through the FAQ & Wiki. Even if you don't have to do unlock and HardSPL anymore..
It's very important to read more than do more in the beginning.
Enjoy your TyTn II. I use it as 'PC' and dial into my older SE M600i that acts as bluetooth modem. The reason is that I have bought data plan for that SIM card, and I don't want to swap my current SIM card on my working phone (TyTn II) to older phone, but want to use the internet update from that data plan. Tricky, but it works!
I don't know if any other platform can do the same.

[Q]What is the best rom for u8160 ?

I am using cm7 as my custom rom but I want to know is there a good and stable rom for my phone ?

OP best way to find out what is good and stable for you, is to flash/install and run the ROMs. Just because users have the same device/same ROM doesn't mean the same stability or out come, it just doesn't happen that way, to many variables involved. With that said you maybe would want to read and read thru the threads of your device forums and see what issues there are and just test the waters out yourself.
Thanks and Thread Closed

Vote for the best JB Cutom ROM for Micromax A110

Reason for starting this poll​
Hi Everyone,
There are lots of ROM's available in XDA forum for Micromax A110 but which one is best. How do rookies like me choose the best rom. I don't understand most of the technical terms listed in the change log. So, please help rookies like me to choose the best ROM. I want every user to rate their favorite ROM. It will help the developers and users to choose their best ROM. Moreover, please add a comment, why you choose the ROM as best. I am listing 18 ROM's in this poll, thanks to iamnimit for developing a thread to list all the ROM's available for Micromax A110. I am listing the ROM's based on his list. I humbly request every user and developer to vote because it will encourage the developers to create more ROM's for us. Please vote the ROM's based on their latest version.

Please add your comments
Hi guys,
Please post the reason why you chose the ROM as best.

Hello,
I'm closing this for a couple of reasons:
First, "Best ROM" threads are not allowed on XDA. It's a pretty pointless argument since what is the best ROM for one person, is not going to be the best ROM for another person. Everyone has different needs for what they want out of a ROM. The best way to choose which one is best for you, is to flash them yourself and see which one best fits your needs.
Secondly, this section of the forum already has more than enough trolling/flaming/arguing to fill 100 other forums, and I do not see this helping calm that down in any way, since history shows that it will just end up with fans of one ROM bashing someone else's ROM. I know the thread wasn't started with the intent of this to happen, but chances are it will anyway.
Stay calm and happy flashing.

[Q] Custom ROM..which to go for?

I got my N5 yesterday, and I guess there is a lot more one can derive out of the phone once rooted (something I havent done yet, will probably do it today). I wanted to know which would be the best custom ROM to install on my N5, one that has the least (or no) bugs. It would be awesome if you guys could suggest the most stable custom ROM for N5. There are too many cus ROMs here, it proved to be a painstaking task to go through each and every one of them and going through the threads to find out what bugs it has..

Awesome and against the rules.

Best ROM/Stable ROM/Good to go threads are against the FORUM rules.
Take some time, read search and find yourself something suitable for you.
