Root/Sense 3.0, Couple of questions first?

Hey guys. I was thinking of Rooting/Flashing my Incredible S, but have a couple of questions first?
1. If I Root/Flash, can I go straight back to stock firmware without any Goldcard or anything?
2. What's the best Sense 3.0 Rom with good battery life?
Thanks guys

First: there is always a chance that something goes wrong. But as you read in different posts, that's rarely the case.
And second: there is no "best" Rom. Take a look at some Roms and decide for yourself. I would recommend Revolution HD But only because I haven't tried anything else yet. I assume that other ROM can be better or worse.

revolution hd isn't sense 3.0 like he asked though (although I definitely agree it is the best rom on here)

Hi.
Thanks for the reply, but I wasn't asking if anything went wrong, I was just asking if I'd be able to flash an RUU Over a custom ROM, or how I could go back to stock firmware from a custom ROM
Also, is this guide the one for windows that I could use to Root/Flash? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137008

It is possible and easy to use sense 3.0 with revolution. Anyway, I don't know any reason why it wouldn't be possible to flash back to a stock Rom.
BTW: the link you posted is the same guide that worked for me.

One more thing, has anyone got the link to this Revolution Sense 3.0 ROM? Can't find it in the Android Development section.

only the lockscreen and weather, though you are still on sense2.1....

Hmm, what's the battery life like on Revolution?
I'm looking for Sense 3.0 and hopefully Improved or pretty much the same battery life I have on stock
(I'd prefer an actual Sense 3.0 ROM to get the Homescreen Transitions)

battery life is great....
it is the best rom on here imo.
like I said though it is sense2.1 (though I think sense 2.1 is better. smoother and less of a resource hog )
if it is imperative you have sense3, try virtuous unity

The battery life is at least the same. The developer says its better but I don't think so. Since you are going to root it anyway you can make use of some more tutorials on how to improve your battery. You will find them in the forum.

[Q] LG O2X Weird Behavior

Hi to all, well a friend of mine gave me a LG Optimus 2X with the Stock rom on it (10d). The phone is very slow at everything. While listening mp3 for example and try to read at the same time my tweets or my mails or trying to open the browser the phone becomes unresponsive for a while. The same goes while on browsing the market! The phone performs worst than any android phone i have ever had!
Any workround? Please help.
Thanks in advance

Get off the stock ROM as soon as possible

So there is nothing wrong with the Phone (with the hardware)? It is Just the stock ROM in it?

Yeah, stock ROM is pretty bad really. You should notice a marked improvement by leaving it.

yes you should leave stock ROM immediately after bought your O2X and start flashing CM7..

Agreed. The stock roms for the optimus 2x aren't that great. Try experimenting with rooting and different roms (I recommend topogogi's rom and kernel since those are the most stable at the moment). If you don't know how to do it then ask, there are a lot of people in this forum willing to help the people who are new to this kind of stuff

Yes that's exactly what i did! But for starters i installed modaco's FR19. It seems pretty good and stable so far. Now the phone is really fast! Are Topogigi or CM better than the one i installed?

Use a custom rom now!!

Hello guys.
I'm a newbie, i've incredible S rooted and s-off with original gingerbread 2.3.3 and sense 2.1.
I want to install CyanVivo X Reborn rom but i have read that "If your phone unlocked by HTCDev.com, you may have to flash the boot.img manually"...what means? I've a rooted and s-off phone, really I have to flash first "boot.img" or it isn't necessary for me?
Second questions: summarizing, what bugs has this rom?
Thanks to all and sorry for my bad english!

Well I switched because I flashed the latest version but didnt really like it. It wasnt as responsive as before and I couldn't find v1 on my computer (which IMHO was the best). About the bug, yes it is true although it is supposed to be fixed in the latest update (might be touch and go though). As an all rounder daily driver, its probably the better AOSP 4.2.2 out there because 1. AOSP 4.2.2 is virtually down to CyanVivo10.1 and PACman 2. CM10.1 by dla5244 and AOKP have been pretty much stopped and 3. its more stable than PACman (which is pretty much all I need in a ROM). Please keep in mind that battery life will be good to a certain extent. In almost all Android 4.0+ ROMs that i have used, Sense ROMs tend to have the better battery life. I would suggest trying multiple ROMs (Sense or AOSP) to see what you value most in a ROM. From there, you can take a choice to see which u like best. My preference goes to Team Blackout for their Blackout ROM v3.2 (great battery life, stable, and its still got a good number of mods that you can add although it is discontinued for us)

No matter how good the battery life and features, if its prone to crashing here and there, its not really that beast in my opinion :/ (Key work: my opinion)

By default I must say Tranquil Rom. It's really customizable fully themed. It doesn't have the newest OTA incorporated yet though.
Viper is the best stock rooted & includes the newest OTA. Hope I helped

A lot of the international ROMs are becoming compatible with the Sprint variant. I'm running Renovate now and loving it.

I am sorry, but threads like "which ROM is best" or "suggest a ROM for me" are not allowed. You should test out the ROMs that interest you and make your own choice.

Sorry i didn't know that, but its kind a lame
Well there is way to read all comment under roms but would take too much time

I agree with you, but that's not for me to decide. It's the forum's rules...

Best rom threads are allowed currently (it's an experiment) and there's already one such a thread.

In that case, I will suggest to our friend @princesama1 to give a shot at Official CM11.
From my experience, it's the most stable and reliable ROM that I had on the phone.

Thanks, but im a little scared of CM's x time ago i tried it in an another phone but i didn't liked it

I recommend that you either try the ROM in my signature or the ROMs built on unofficial sources.
I have no idea why but official stutters during just any game that puts above 70% load on CPU and I even experience lags while recording no matter what kernel I use.This wouldn't happen before but since some time now it's happening and I'd prefer CM 10.2 over CM11 official.
Unofficial sources have updated blobs, some stuff about camera is broken but games are faster, UI and general usage etc. all snappier.

I'd suggest to try out the LiquidSmooth Rom or SlimKat. Had the best experience with those and running LiquidSmooth + Cydoak kernel atm. Works like a charm .

I'm sad... i tried a lot of rom but i like nothing...
Cm11 offical wasnt able to do 4G idk why (i even got sms from Telenor lol) some roms broke
Almost all rom the same...they have only different name
Its so sad, i really liked statusbar in cm
Ill try LiquidSmooth Rom, SlimKat roms when ill learn how to download it ^^'

In your opinion what is better? SlimKat or LiquidSmooth?

Our phone doesn't support LTE or 4G. It supports HSPA+, HSPDA, 3G and other 2G types

There is a possibility for me to buy this phone, but I saw that many games are very laggy, what ROM is the best for gaming? I'm not going to buy it if the performance is worst than my Xperia L.

Keep that Xperia for a while, it isn't worth upgrading to the O4X.
