[SurrealOne]

Froyo DK28 EXT-4 to Midnight ROM ver 2.9 EXT4 this rocks and really fast. Way better then stock.

[ROM] midNIGHT ROM v2.9 EXT4/RFS CW2.5 Redirect (CW3 Compatible) 1/13/2011 - xda-developers

I got to say a big THANK YOU for all the help. three weeks ago I had no clue how to ROOT and all the the other stuff I have learned. Thanks

Have you tried Quantum?

 

[SurrealOne]

I was looking for it last night and found it but the site that had it was down. I have heard good things about it. Right now not many ROMS based EXT4 file format

Ok so far so good no bugs to speak of yet. Also I loaded WiFi tether works like a charm. I"m going to test the 4g tomorrow and and see if the 4g speeds will also work on my laptop. My laptop has a Sprint EDVO REV A card in it so 3g will test with the card and then test the WiFi tether and see the 4g speed diff. Also this ROM is fast and I really like the fact that the Sprint APPS have been removed also lots of other little tweaks that relly set this apart. When I find the Quantum VER 2.7 ROM with support for EXT-4 file system I will give that a go. If anybody has a good link please share. All the links I try do not work. Maybe that's for a reason not sure. That's all for now. Thank you for the support.

After reviewing the Quantum ROM and watching the youtube video. I think the Midnight ROM seems more up to date and also looks and feels more like
Gingerbread.

Remember that whichever you chose, you can always flash a gingerbread theme.

Good point.. Do I need to look out for themes with EXT-4 support or can I use any theme?

I'm just doing the ext4 myself as I type... great question.

Ok I will throw it out at XDA and see what comes back. Good luck. What ROM you going to run?

 

[Kelmar]

Probably Quantum again.

From what it looks like, the themes have to changed to work on Ext4.

WOW WiFi tethering is slow in 3g mode gonna walk outside and get a good 4g signal and see what kind of speed I get.

I've been using the Trulyepic Rom by Ragnaroks for well over a week now. i absolutely LOVE it! it's pretty bare bones at first (no touchwiz or anything flashy), but it's amazingly smooth and definitely the most stable rom I've used to date (hence why I've had it for a week without changing to another rom) Btooth works, gps is flawless (down to 4 meters), battery is definitely better, wireless tether is strong like whoa (even on 4g). My only wish is that he had better choices of wallpaper!

 

[SurrealOne]

Does that ROM support EXT-4? And do you have a link?

Looks very cool. I also like that you can add the add on's after install. But it is cool looking have you tried wifi tether?

yes and it works like a charm

If I try another ROM do I need to go to a stock DK28 or can I just copy the Truly Epic ROM to SD card and boot to CWM3 and load from SD card?

it's always best to make sure that you wipe your phone data and cache before you install a new rom. and you load it to SD. (but I also like to make sure that the sd card has nothing on it prior to me putting anything on it. that's just me though. others who have done this longer might do things different)

 

[SurrealOne]

So I can go from one ROM to another ROM just make sure to wipe 3 x and clear 3 x
Just copy ROM to SD and boot to CWM3 and load??? Ok thanks for the input
