[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
They tried doing this a few months back, doing reviews about roms and known bugs and such. It didn't get very far. While its a good idea, the very nature of roms is "change" so while a review might be valid and have the correct bugs, it could be invalid next week, due to update made to the rom. The best way to evaluate a rom your considering choosing, is reading the change log, and the last ten or more pages of the roms thread, that should give you an idea if any one is having any major bugs.
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
ROMs are based personally. Try them all then pick.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tweaked:
Maybe if the Roms stated "Final Version" on them you could pull this off. But None do.
[HTC Inspire 4G] weregoingunion:
After a lot of unhelpful replies, I'll respond to the question the person actually asked.

I'm using Lees Rom and Kernal and LOVE it. I settle on it after a friend told me it was his favorite and after trying about 4 other ROMs with crappy results.

It is loaded with features and it also has a patch to use Sense 3.0. I personally like Sense more than any custom attempts I have seen and 3.0 is worlds better than 2.x

I still have the stock radio because I can't seem to get it to update. I have been trying by renaming the radio img zip to P98img.zip (or whatever its called) and updating through the bootloader on the phone. But it always gives me an error parsing the package.

Only thing that worries me is that for some reason (the last few times I tried) I couldn't get into bootloader/recovery by holding volume- while booting. So if the phone ever gets locked up, I'm not sure how to recover. You can get into either through the custom power down menu though which is very cool.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
And I'm sure you'll be back to update your post once those issues in Lee's ROM are resolved, or you figure out it wasn't the ROM fault, after all, or if you decide you don't like sense anymore, right?

That's what those "unhelpful" posts were trying to get across.

These things change. ROMs get fixed.

Sometimes users of ROMs pull their heads out of their ass' and figure out their problems were actually of their own creation, after they blamed the ROM.

So when a new user comes around a month from now, finds a best ROM post that has obsolete information, that new user will form an unfair opinion of what might now be (or always was) a great ROM.

Now *that's* unhelpful.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
be sure you have Fastboot turned off in Applications.

Another thing you can do is download Quickboot from the market...then boot into bootloader from there. Quickboot>bootloader
[HTC Inspire 4G] tweaked:
Really? You call me unhelpfull for being honest yet you post and don't even post anything helpful. infact you noobed the whole post. You can't even flash a radio...Or figure out how to boot into recovery....Your Rom information is valueless. You should jump off your pedistal before you fall....Or someone pushes you....:rolleyes:
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
I think it was that "alot of unhelpful replies" part that did it for me. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] louslugger15:
I'm not looking to find out what Rom is best, but to see what combinations of roms, kernels, and radios you guys are using. It's almost impossible to find an exact combo and even harder to dig thru the threads to see what people are using.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Papa Luigi:
I browse a lot of threads, have only commented a few times. Been browsing for a couple years when I flashed different WinMo 6.5 roms on my ATT Fuze, as well as loading and running Android 2.1 and 2.2 from the SD card on the same phone. I will +1 some of the advice heard here so far:

Start by looking at threads where the ROM's have been updated recently (within the ten days for me). Check the change log to see if it's new features, upgrades, or bug fixes in the current updates. Or if it's a mix of it all, but look for things that interest you. Then, as stated earlier in this thread, check the last ten pages, at least the ones since the current update became available.

Also, it helps me to watch who is responding on the threads. Many users will became recognizable to you by name and avatar, and watch their post counts too. Lastly, check their signatures, most of the active senior members keep it updated with the information you are looking for. If they put it in the sig, it's because they are happy with what works and want to share it. Until the next thing better comes along.

PS, yes, I don't post a lot and yes I'm still on stock. Running dual OS's on my fuze was easy, don't feel comfortable yet pulling the trigger on my Inspire, but I'm off for the summer soon, more time to spend on it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
I know you don't want to look through the threads, but that is kind of the requirement. Every rom, kernel, and radio is going to work differently on every phone. It's like buying to exact same lap tops with the same exact os and programs, and with out doing any thing, the next day one of them crashes.

To be honest, and as helpful as I can, the only way is read the last few posts in the thread, to see if there is any major bugs. Then flash the rom, kernel, and or radio and test them out on your phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
That's the the thing, though. There'll be at least one person running every possible combo out there.

One will say it's da bomb, another will say it froze his phone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] matrx10503:
+1 and ditto

What is the main point/purpose/question of starting this thread?

You say you don't want to find the "best" rom (granted your thread title does have the word ROM in it).....so you are trying to find the best combo correct? (which still depends on what you are trying to get out of the combo)

........And like its been said.....really just look at the sigs and the more "serious" devotees will have their ROM and more info all written in the sig (which is a two-fold thing 1. it promotes the work 2. for these type of questions (to give a sort-of consensus)

But that doesn't necessarily mean it will solve whatever you are trying to get out of this thread.......

because everything changes so rapidly, you have to keep up......or basically find the "best" parts that you won't/don't change much (like radios, etc.) and find the one you like.......then focus on the changeables like Rom, etc. because your view on roms change more frequently than the others.

All these types of topics are very subjective....and takes reading to find a "decent" answer to your question.....in the end your surrounded by a great community (XDA)...but ultimately your alone

If you get what im saying...

You could do the popularity thing......see whats in the sigs, and do that

If it works good for you.....don't worry about whats "best/better".......because you won't know whats better, you will just know what is working good for YOU (which is all that matters)

Lastly....to "answer your question".....lol......read my sig :-D

Hi i'v got a server with DLNA (i use it with my samsung TV). I tried to listen to the music trough DLNA and it works but when i try to open any kind of video (mkv, avi, mp4...) it says that the format is not supported... what can i do? Thank you guys.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j4d:
I have the same problem. Very few items will load and give an error message.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Derbeer:
Great movie ;D ahhah so... nobody has the answer? ;D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zuts1:
I think it depends on what streams the server can support. the video goes from the phone to the server to the tv so the server must support it.

I have an sgs2 and a non-dlna samsung tv. I just got a WD tv device and it supports all the formats you mentioned.

So upgrade the software on your server or get a new one.

Cheers

Paul
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Derbeer:
If i use the DLNA from my Samsung TV it works! So i think that the server's configuration is ok, but if i try to play a video on the sgs2 it doesn't work... is it anyway a server's problem?

[Thunderbolt Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
After hearing about the issues with Gingerbread related bricking I decided to hold off on releasing a Gingerbread version of Blackhole, but after waiting, and with most people seeming to be willing to take the risk I'm going to be releasing it. The Rom will be available in Rom Manager starting Wednesday 6/8.

I wanted to go ahead and post this because I do release the Rom early to supporters of the site that hosts all my Roms/Files www.androiddoes.net. For details on how to get access to the Standalone version today visit [MOD EDIT]

I'll put up all the details on this post on Wednesday when I drop the public release.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jiv3turk3y89:
Sweet thanks man
[Thunderbolt Android Development] boristhebladexx:
will have the sense 3.0 elements?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
Not by default, but they will be available as an addon shortly after release.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
Nice. Looking forward to this. Will the Stock/Froyo version still be updated?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sonofskywalker3:
I will continue to leave the current options in Rom Manager for Blackhole 1.1, at least until HTC releases the official Gingerbread update, but I will not be adding new options for it, except by request. So if you prefer to remain on Blackhole 1.1 and would like a feature/option/app added to the options for it just let me know and I'll get it added for you when I can.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Babydollll:
That is some scary stuff. I just read up on it. That should absolutely be illegal.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xjman:
It is and it isn't. Do I agree 100% they should track every last thing I say, text and browse? Absolutely not. Do I think they should be allowed to see how many calls I make, how many texts, what kind of apps I use, how often I use the browser. Yeah, I'm ok with that.

Sprint has CarrierIQ for what has been basically narrowed down to 2 theories. Troubleshooting, and possible tracking for Marketing and future device planning.

Does it bother me that a company like Sprint would collect metrics to find out what features I use on my current phones so they can offer better choices in the future? Nope, I'm ok with that. Does it worry me they could in theory track everything I say and do? No, but it probably should as it violates my privacy.

I'm still not 100% on what all google can track, but I know its just about everything, as well if I remember correctly they also have a kill switch for it. That just doesn't seem kosher. I still love my phone, and don't let petty **** bother me. To me being followed by the powers that be is petty.

Hope someone here can help. I have the HTC MAGIC 32A hboot 1.76.0010, cpld-12, radio-6.35.16.19 and tried flashing the ROM with ROM MANAGER, and everything was going good, phone rebooted, status bar was moving, then it stopped, now I can only get to the ROGERS screen. I am able to get into fast boot, but nothing else, I tried the factory reset, and still nothing. ABD wont recognize the phone, but the computer recognizes android 1.0 but I dont think I have it set up right, as I have aworking MAGIC, and I cant get the abd to recognize that phone either. Can someone point me to a walk through on restoring this phone, or give me some pointers? I dont recall the actual ROM I tried flashing but will try and get that if needed as well phone goes into clockwork recovery but only for a few moments .

Hey guys... before rooting I carried a Anti Virus App on my Galaxy S 4G and never had any issues.... but now I notice that every time I run the App, I have so many threats and I don't know if I should clear them or will they affect my root?

Please let me know as I don't want to get any viruses on my phone.... especially with the DroidKungKu as seen on redmondpie...

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Eric-1987:
Wtf? Viruses on android? Threats? From what?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lvnlegendinc:
Im not 100% on what are the viruses that we can get or what makes our phones vulnerable ... so im sure someone here can shed some light.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
even if you DID get a virus its not like it would hurt your phone, all you would have to do is reflash using odin

personally i think that antivirus crap for android is bs and shouldnt be on the phone because its not really needed
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lvnlegendinc:
The hassle of reflashing and having to re-download all the apps is a pain... my biggest concern is having malware take control of my phone and or obtain personal information.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Eric-1987:
You will be fine. Your "personal" information is safe within android. If a real hacker wanted to get your **** there would be nothing you could do to stop them anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
yea and you can back up your phone with titanium back up or use CWM restore then you wont have to re download anything everything will be how it use to before your phone messed up
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Lvnlegendinc:
Another thing for me to learn about lol! CMW is a blur lol I tried doing that when i reinstalled KD1 the other day since my phone was acting up and I gave up lol!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dsexton702:
for cwm just go to the CWM FINAL thread and get the update.zip not the recovery file

then place the update.zip on the ROOT of your sdcard meaning on the card itself not in any of the folders the card has OUTSIDE the folders

reboot into recovery and press reinstall packages and you are now in CWM :D

p.s you dont need the recovery file from the CWM thread because whitehawkx put it on the kd1 rom already!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dynamicj:
Malware on a phone is dangerous and it is happening on android Its just linux underneath it all. Essentially it can take over you phone as its virus like and can recover any information that you input to your phone just like on a pc.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rose2jam:
Lol to the idea of having a virus on an android phone...means stop watching porn and downloading bad apps haha.
[Bravo General] MotoBravo:
My Bravo constantly gives me a " 'INFO' The update package is not available at this time" message. It is very annoying. I have 2.2 update and phone works great, other than the poor signal now. Also when I go to about phone > system updates, it says an update is currently being downloaded. But it's been like this for a week. Is there a way to clear cache or make this message go away. Sorry noob question but I did try searching this out before I posted.
[Bravo General] michaelvan8:
MotoBravo, If you have not done a factory reset since you did the update that is the place to start.
[Bravo General] MotoBravo:
Hey thanks for response. Stupid question but will the factory reset revert me back to 2.1 ?
[Bravo General] jorgonv:
No, but it will erase all your personal data/apps on your phone (your sd card will still have its data though).

Backup your contacts and apps first!
[Bravo General] MotoBravo:
Well I'm backed up except for .apks , but they wont let me transfer. I'm in debug so dont know what the problem is . Damn I got old.
[Bravo General] jorgonv:
What did you use to backup? I recommend buying bandroidx's bootstrap recovery to back everything up, or getting titanium backup for just your apps
[Bravo General] MotoBravo:
Yeah I had Titanium already so went that route. Did the hard reset and all is well. Close this baby .

Is there a way around this please to do a reset ?

Do Hardreset your u8800 - 1, pres vol up + power until start up the phone then relase the power boton, wait a bit then folow the instruction of screan ,it will be Done .
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Doctor Who:
You should do what caulfieldman did and return it to the shop where you bought it from; yesterday if possible. Don't bother with the support procedure, just visit the shop, demonstrate the problem to the employee and demand that it's replaced, under warranty.

Even if a factory reset fixes the issue, it sounds more like a hardware issue which should warrant a replacement anyway.
[HTC EVO 3D] Johnabis:
per the press release, looks like premier customers can buy the Evo3D on June 21st online.

"Additionally, Sprint Premier customers will have the opportunity to purchase HTC EVO 3D online three days before the national launch, while supplies last. Qualifying customers will receive an email on June 21, or they can log on to their account at www.sprint.com on June 21, click "show me my rewards" and then "Sprint Premier Community" for more information."

http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/06/htc-evo-3d-launches-on-june-24th-for-200-joined-by-evo-view-4g/

I never bought a phone online before, would you really get it sooner by ordering it online then just going into the store on the 24th?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
Yes, Sprint typically ships Overnight so you have a chance to get it a day or 2 before the release in store.
