[Q] Roms for the tilt 2 by htc

I have a tilt 2 with 8/30/2010 update n its suck i was wondering wats a good custom rom to use that dosent freezes up or runs super slow n were to download it at

We get at least a dozen new users asking this question every couple of weeks. The response is always the same. This is like asking a community of peers which pants are the most comfortable. It's a matter of opinion. Flashing doesn't harm your device at all (if you follow instructions), and it's simple to restore it to factory settings if you need to send it in for repairs or replacement. Therefore, with no downside to flashing ROMs, just keep flashing them until you find something you like.
Most ROM threads will tell you within the first couple of posts most of the goals of the ROM, and whether they are cooked for speed, looks, or stability. There are also pictures on most all of them so you can see it before you flash. Flashing takes minutes, so why not just spend a day or so testing a bunch of them out. I've been flashing for a long time and I still don't stick to just one ROM.

I got the same problem with this ROM from AT&T. I called HTC and they admit that there is a memory leak problem in the HTC Sense built into that version of the ROM. So does anyone have a ROM with a better (or later) HTC　Ｓｅｎｓｅ　ｔｈａｔ　ｗｏｒｋｓ，　ｉ．ｅ．　ｆａｓｔ，　ｎｏ　ｍｅｍｏｒｙ　ｌｅａｋ，　ａｎｄ　ｎｏ　ｌｏｃｋｕｐ？
Ｔｈａｎｋｓ．

The best advice that can be given to those in your situation (besides HardSPL'ing your device) it to
1) Pick a ROM on this very board.
2) Flash it to your phone.
3) Use your phone.
4)
a) If you like it, then your problem is solved.
b) If you don't like it, do steps 1-3 until you get to step 4a)

Software Version 1.59.502.3
Will this new software version be a huge upgrade from my current version without losing any default features that I now have?

Consider using Wildchild's ROMs. They are pretty much stock look/feel, but faster and much more stable.

Yep. Bluetooth works great. Actually everything works great. Its a ROM where everything works as it should. Keep in mind, bloatware is removed, but all the core stuff works perfect.

Thanks - where is the best place to read up on with instructions on how to do this?

Try the flashing your first Rhodium ROM tutorial sticky.

Thanks - it appears there are several versions of the rom, so I have a lot of reading to figure out what the differences are.
Do you have any preference?

HARDSPL

I use the 2.1 ROM from Wild Child and it is absolutely the best. Has everything I need and nothing I don't. It is fast, stable, in my mind, the way it should have been from the beginning. It is a rock solid ROM.

This is the one I was going to flash on my phone, but after hours of working on it with F2505x4 we could not get it to flash. There was an issue with the HardSPL. I ended up flashing the updated AT&T stock rom instead for now.

[Q] rom to rom flashing

can i go flash from ginger clone rom to Precision v2.0 without any problems or do i have to do anything special i just got my captivate 2 days ago been doing alot of reading just would like to find a bare bones rom that runs great that i can add what i want into it with my apps.and have great battery life to boot.lol

It is suggested that you flash back to stock before you flash to a new ROM. I use Odin...it's in the development section.

when changing ROMs, its a recommended practice to flash to stock.

made new thread, delete.

Had too many questions so I posted them all here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044871

check the thread where the theme was downloaded.
there are a million issues when applying themes to darkys ROMs. i have experienced this many times.
the problem is the ROM takes up to much space under /system / data ( i think ) and you have to remove certain things from that folder in order for the theme to successfully apply itself.
Some work 1st time, some dont work at all.

Thanks for the reply.
Is that so? What would be the best ROM for applying themes if that's the case? All I read and hear is Darky's ROM this Darky's ROM that so I went for that instead.
I think I found the problem - I didn't have CWM installed... We'll see how it goes.

Oh right, well now you have CWM try again and see how it goes.
if you wanna change ROM i suggest making your own at www.romkitchen.org << fantastic place for customising ROMs to your own liking.

i failed again, i don't know what im doing wrong! hahaha.
i made a new thread cause i had too many questions.

All you hear is darky rom this darky rom that is not from this forum . Its just one of many .Read the posts in development section for a flavour of roms .
Bit like saying we all know MacDonald's therefore its the best food in the world .
jje

haha you have made a new thread and no body has replied.
you would of been better off sticking to this one.

I've had to reinstall 2.3.3 using ODIN four times now... What do you two suggest I do when it comes to choosing roms? I'm sick of having to reinstall every time I get the bootloop cause the installation of a theme went wrong.

2 options man..
Stop flashing the theme, or try another rom.
Easy as that

I don't try the same theme every single time, there's only one theme I've been able to flash and it was ugly as shet.
Any rom recommendations?

Is your current ROM 'De-odexed' Meaning, is your ROM a custom ROM or a stock ROM

I believe it may be de-odexed - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814091
Darky's rom v10 RC4

yea it will be de-odexed.
try another ROM.
www.romkitchen.org

I've decided to reinstall Darky's ROM. I just read somewhere that it may be in the bootloop cause of the bootanimation.zip or something and that if I delete that it'll get out of the bootloop? I got out of the thread, I forget where it is

/system / media bootanimation.zip

[i9000] Complete Android Noob.

Right, ive had a i9000 for 5 months or so, and ever since i got it, ive found it to be slow, at times laggy. And hate alot of the crap samsung put on it.Which ive not even used.
I reckon its about time i start to make the most of my phone, but dont really know where to start, with these custom roms and rooting and what not.
I basically want it to run smoothly and possibly add a tweaks/features to it which could possibly improve it. However i remember reading somewhere, that ill lose the camera features if i install a custom rom. :l (i could be talking from my arse here)
Also i read that android 4.0 is coming or has come out. Would i be able to upgrade my phone to it ? and should i ?? If not what is the best rom to flash which will make my phone faster and smoother.
Is there anything at all to make it significantly faster, or is it limited by hardware :/
Im currently on:
kernal version 2.6.29
firmware 2.1 -update1
Which i havnt messed with since i got the phone.
Thanks, and sorry for the daft questions.

Oh dear! did you wrote 2.1? Please read basic root steps and install custom rom. I recommend you to start with Cf-root
go here :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
As far as 4.0, please wait.

OK, here we go...
1. First of all you need to root your device to install a custom rom or kernel. So first root your device with the above thread (cf-root).
2. Choose any rom from so many roms available all over xda. Choose only from the topic which is under your device's category, not from other device's rom,lol.
To do this you need Odin(use search)
3. Once done you will have custom rom and also custom kernel if you wish.
After these you can go for lagfix, like changing from rfs to ext4.
Best of luck.

Thanks, so after ive rooted with cf-root. do i have to install a custom rom and custom kernel, both ?
And which is considered the best rom and kernel ?
thanks
regards

Hey Skweezer,
Recommend you start with these threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=939752
and:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723596
They will tell you about how to connect your phone to your PC (Samsung USB drivers + adb), 3 button mode (how to avoid bricking your phone), backing up important/unrecoverable data (like your EFS block!), and what (in general) needs to be done to flash custom firmware.
After that, you should be able to pretty much recover from any error (like unplugging your phone mid flash). Now you can go ahead and root your phone and start exploring the wonderful word of custom roms! As for which one is the best, that's like asking "how long is a piece of string?" Some people prefer speed and cutting edge, others value battery life and stability, some aim for the middle of the road.
Personally I've tried tegrak kernel and was really impressed with the speed improvement! However, the limited app space finally turned me back to other kernels. I found the rest to be pretty much six in one, half dozen in the other (ie all about the same)... so pick one you like and just go for it... use it for a while and if it's not to your liking, flash again
Just a quick rundown on android for you... firmware 2.1 = Eclair, 2.2 = Frozen Yoghurt, 2.3 = Gingerbread, 3.0 = Honeycomb (tablet only version of android) and 4.0 = Ice Cream Sandwich (unify android for phone/tablet/tv again). There is a HUGE performance increase from going stock 2.1 to 2.3! so even if you just upgrade to Samsung's Gingerbread release (2.3.3 I believe?) you will notice better performance. Doing lagfix, kernel tweaks, etc is just icing on top of the cake. However, you'll find once you start tweaking, you won't go back to stock

Well, easiest way of starting is installing KIES and letting it update your phone. That's the official way and you won't have to bother with details like kernels, roms, bootloaders, etc and won't void your warranty (if that's the case).
You'll probably be left with with some 2.3.x version. Might as well make a backup from your stuff before upgrading, kies sucks in a general way, but may help you with that.
From that point on, if you still want to press further into customization goodness, there are PLENTY to chose from.
There are mainly 2 kinds of roms:
- Samsung based (someone picks up a sock samsung rom and modifies it with scripts, kernels, themes, apps, etc). These are most of the ones you'll find in the development section of this forum.
- not samsung based (like Cyanogen e MIUI). These are built from Google's sources directly and totally skip samsung. Therefore, samsung apps most likely won't work here. Everything else does.
Personally i'd recommend Cyanogen 7.1 stable as your next rom. It's an extremely optimized and wildly popular rom, with plenty of options that you won't find in any stock rom. They have their own forum i recommend you to look up if you're going their way.
Whatever you do, GET AWAY FROM THAT 2.1

Cheers for alll the replies guys. Im first going to just update via kies. To an official 2.3
If im not happy with that then ill try a custom rom and rooting.
If only it was as simple as jailbreaking and iphone. lool

Right, ust updated to latest version via kies. And instantly alot better, smoother. Has some of those things bulit into the system which i always though were missing.
Ill try it for a week, and see if theres anything i need, or think is missing. Then i might go custom. But right now im happy with it on the latest official version.
Thank you guys, i think you've made me sort of like android a bit more.

[Q] how to deodex stock rom la6?

Hi,
I've tried several custom roms, while they are much faster than stock rom and i do find faults in them so always go back to stock rom.
However I want to deodex my stock rooted rom. the reason for this is that i need this patch for arabic on my phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424144
can someone help me to do this, all other threads are for other phones, is the method the same? and are the requirements also the same?
finally, if there is a way to get arabic full and not broken up like what i currently have, can some help with that instead, because that is what I really need.
cheers and thanks in advance.

You have 2 options mate:
1. Easy way:
- Download a stock, deodexed and prerooted ROM from [ROM] Stock ...LA4,LA6,LB1 ROM[Stock Deodexed & Tweaked Version]
- Go to that patch thread you posted and get the patch for the ROM you downloaded
- Flash and profit
2. Hard way:
- Go to [GUIDE] dsixda's Android Kitchen - Now with SGS2 support (Windows/Linux/Mac) and get the kitchen up and running in your machine
- Deodex your ROM by yourself
- Get the Arabic patch
- Flash and profit
EDIT: You actually have another option if all you're looking for is only Arabic support:
- Got to [STOCK ROMS] N7000 All stock ROMs + install + Root guide All at 1 place,Latest XXLC2
- Download the ROMs with the region code of JPXX (where XX is e.g. LA)
- Flash and profit
However, you may want to get the directly rootable ROMs to gain root and CWM recovery after flashing but never mind this if you don't care about root

Well I've been using smali and backsmali for a long time but that's not for everyone and dsixda's kitchen is a great way to start learning about cooking ROMs

thanks mate, you've been a great help, i might as-well use the easy way. but first may give the hard way a shot, I want to learn about all this stuff, coming from the n900 its all interesting.

Yeah But I bet we can never learn by using scripts though the scripts are great .Ok no off topics anymore.

as most of us now have knowledge that the ics official rom is out but only the german one, is there a stock rom which is pre rooted and pre deodexed? just like what's available for the GB rom through here.
