{List} Utilities/Roms/Kernels
First and foremost I want to start off by giving mad props to all the devs who have worked hard in providing us with awesome products for us to try out on our rooted phones without asking for any money up front. Please if you have the time and the money donate as much as you can. These devs do not do this full time or get paid for what they do.
This is a list of all of the tools/utilities, roms and kernels that are out. If you flash anything from this list please read the op thoroughly, before doing so. And of course what you do to your phone is your responsibility. I will not be held responsible for things you do to your phone.
Attn: Mods and Guides feel free to edit and add as you like.

ok so i figured that we should start our own thread for roms, kernels and such. we had one going for the og evo and i thought it is a good idea to start one over here. i will be adding in all the info. i just wanted to start out with an outline for you guys to see.
please feel free to make suggestions on roms or anything else you would like to see and i will do my best to add it in.

Should just link the tools and utilities in that guide as well. Lets also try to do a better job on keeping them updated and the links fresh. I remember with the OG that was one of the frustrating things that I ran into outdated ROMS and LINKS. Of course I'll do my part in helping as much as possible.
Suggest renaming where to go for roms to "Leading dev sites for materials found here" and letting go of disclaimer for other sites, or drop the section, either way, your call. IOW, let's restrict our opinions to staff picks in official guides. Personally, I think that's best. Ok to express personal opinions elsewhere.
Just my opinion.
Also, please break out radios by pointing to our threads where possible in addition to themikmik.com, for our rooters' questions. IOW, rom/firmware revision pairing and our places to let people discuss that pairing. There's a bit of usual firmware confusion and people may be tempted to adopt Evo firmware practices here, not a good idea. Example, going backwards on radio firmware is a cracking bad idea.
Idea - add warning of when/why to use an RUU? I think partitions are more complex on this phone and RUU tinkering needs some brief disclaimers. Perhaps.

Thanks for doing the legwork on this. I'm flashing evil tonight. I would like to see stock kernels/roms listed though, so also.
Or would that just make it too easy?

Kernel killed my screen. The going to re flash it without GPU overclocking.
I was saved by the nandroid I just made, knowing how to do the battery pull with the power button, and how to get to hboot and recovery. A good book to read while things were backing up and loading didn't hurt either.
I think this underscores the importance of knowing the basic skills of rooting. I mean, a noob like me was able to get out of the mess by my self.

changed the headings for some of the links
hey guys,
so as more roms come out and are actively updating i will go for a more general link as it can get harder to keep up with everything. this way if there is an update i do not have to change the title or anything. i might post that there is a new update or something. so here are two that i have done so far.
ok, so my ROM went all wonky this morning, so its time to go s-off. Ive been s-on since 3 days after release and been to lazy to feed the panda lol. so its time. I'm s-on 1.12hboot baseband 1.02.12.0427 build 2.13.651.1, currently running viper4g, but need to go to stock rooted to get s-of and I need to know which stock rooted I need to flash. thanks all

Thanks! I got it from the lazy panda site, and after doing it, i discovered I'd unrooted lol. No worries, went through everything and fed the panda, no issues. Running great now on viper 4g 2.02

yeah that is why i recommended fresh rom as it would have kept you from locking the bootloader again. but glad you are now officially rooted. and it is alos good to see you get your flash on as well

Hmmm, just noticed this, never thought about it before. Want us to remedy that?
Please.
The old guide pointed to threads here where we had them. We're all serving the same community but it's harder to find our own support threads like this.
Thanks!

I'll try to work on it tonight. Also give the others a heads up.

Hey guys, think we should get the radios separated into ICS / JB? Leave the link for the last update there, then link the xHausx thread for the JB firmware?
The good Cap'n hasn't updated his thread over at themikmik yet.
