Root [CDMA] Who rom are you guys using?

Putty · Aug 11, 2011

Any better than stock? Quicker? I removed basically every app that I did not install from my phone and it runs great! I really don't see my changing the rom, but who knows once Myn gets started.

right now im running viper rom 1.3 and am loving it

its zipaligned, more streamlined faster than stock, the kernel that comes with it is good, but i am using netarchy kernel with it to occasionally overclock

I've used Steel and currently using Viper 1.3. Either one is worth your time to flash. Although I think I'm going to stick with Viper for a bit. It's got good dev support. It runs smooth. The phone boots real quick. And has a nice set of features.

I'm running viper 1.3 with this kernel [Kernel][RCMIX EVO 3D][Cifs][Nls][Tun][OC 2GHZ] - xda-developers and loving it. I tried another kernel for a day or so, but that thing was killing my battery and kept my phone warm. This combo is perfect and it is so fast. I couldn't go back to stock now. I'm going to try the showdown rom once it gets to the second version. There's been some great feedback for it.

I flashed Senseless 1.2 a few days ago. The ROM felt slow, something which I did not expect from an AOSP.

I have heard that Viper is excellent and may try that next.

ximon581 · Aug 11, 2011

I'm using RCMIX kernel with viperROM 1.3 and viperControl with the Thyparancy Gingerbread theme. Everything is absolutely perfect. Runs amazingly. I couldn't ask for a better combo.

EVO3D · Aug 11, 2011

I'm currently using SteelROM with RCMIX v2.2.3 and I'm liking the combo. The rom has some nice mods, you can check it out here:[ROM] ░▒▓

I am using Showdown1.0 1.85GHZ its fast light and so far battery life is good. Am still waiting on CM7. I had GerbilSense-6 Shooter-w/Netarchy Kernel-updt but that was horrible on my battery. I should have waited for it takes some time for the battery to get use to a new Rom. I see Gerbil-shooter_V2 has a new rom out might try that after i let showdown stay for a week. Here is a few shots of the 6 shot shooter.

That's the kernel I had for a few days that was destroying my battery.

I also saw poor performance from that kernel, even after calibrating and using the phone for a few days. The .5 GHz that it boosted the phone was not worth the battery drop, IMO.

WarDamnEagle09 · Aug 12, 2011

ViperROM 1.3 here as well. Haven't played with kernels yet for the 3D, but so far the ViperROM is quick stable and has decent battery life. I did however revert back to the 20110613 Universal Market in Rom Manager. The new market is slick but WAY too slow. Not sure if it's the market app itself or how it runs on ViperROM, but I'm happy with the old one.

ovrrdrive · Aug 12, 2011

I've been running mik's rom since the day after revolution went public and have been fairly happy with it. Due to the lack of updates I'm getting ready to try viper out to see if it is what everyone says it is. When mik puts out an update though I'll come running back.

By the way, I've been running netarchy's kernal for about a week and haven't noticed any problems at all with the kernal or the battery.

websterzx10r · Aug 12, 2011

ROM : Viper RC1.3

Kernel : Netarchy SBC Test 5

Recovery : TWRP 1.0.3

Observations :The ROM is very stable! Battery life could be better. RC 1.2 is snappier over 1.3.

I have tried a bunch of kernels, and my current one seems to be the best IMO, closely followed by the stock one!

I recommend the Netarchy silverneedle Test 5 ( SBC or not ) if you want to run the OC Daemon ( over and under clocker ) script, otherwise the stock HTc kernel is pretty darn good as of now!!

Basically a great smooth ROM with no Sprint Bloatware, unlocked HotSpot, lots of free RAM and decent battery life!

z50king · Aug 13, 2011

I am on ViperROM 1.3, kernal it comes with

the battery was amazing and went 2 days right after i flashed it. then i calibrated it and now it's taking it's sweet cycles to come back to that battery life. It's getting there though. I still have yet to fully wipe, lol

The viper team responds to every legitimate question or concern over in his xda app. can't wait for his next update

oh and hotspot unlocked to pass 3g, and wifi tether comes with it to pass 4g

I downloaded ADW and don't like having to go menu-more-settings-more-etc-etc to get to the menu. will wait until cm7 hopefully comes with it built in

grepper · Aug 14, 2011

I flashed Viper ROM as my first non- stock ROM. I didn't care for it, so I planned to load a new ROM.

In preparing to flash Senseless, I realized I neglected to do a full reset prior to installing Viper.

When I get bored with Senseless (I've used it nearly a week, so that should be soon), I have all intentions of flashing Viper again, but doing it properly this time, to see how I like it.

kenn · Aug 14, 2011

I've posted up CleanROM v 1.3 in this forum. It's the first ROM on my Evo 3D and I'm liking it so far. I've not come across any technical issues with it so far. He added a few small tweaks like GPU accel, gps off icon removed, green overscroll, window animations, removed bloat, cool battery+percentage icon, 4-1 boot, pre-installed kernel manager (he's tested with the three ROMs and report they all work) and few other things. I'll try other ROMs, of course, but I'm going to sport this one for a while and see where it goes. So far, so good.

Twitchh · Aug 14, 2011

I'm using Viper 1.3 with the RCMIX kernel.

Good battery life and very responsive. I plan on sticking with this one until Cyanogen releases their ROM.

a review of the best rom on the rooted evo 3d at the moment. I must admit that this is a fast Rom i am using kernel #2 and am overclocked at 192 min 1242 max. with setCpu i am new to overclocking but will get better in time.

EarlyMon · Aug 15, 2011

Not telling you your business - but setCPU was happy going down that low on that kernel when you scanned it? That's kinda cool, mine only goes down to 384.

MahaloCat · Aug 15, 2011

I have Been Using Helo Showdown as well....
it is fast ans smooth....
Updates coming!

It is my Driver till we can get some AOSP on these phones !

DonB · Aug 15, 2011

I'm on the netarchy kernel so these things vary - nice to know about your experience and that option!!
