[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anoninja118:
there's a whole list of roms in the development section so you can take your pick, most are stable and provide pretty good battery life though it varies from phone to phone.. as for personal recommendations, I ran Adryn's SuperClean rom (last and latest version is 2.9.2) over a debloated stock EB01 rom, it was very stable and battery life was above average compared to my use of complete stock VZ rom. Second I would recommend what im running on now, Ultimate KangBang (UKB)/Community Rom (ComRom) 2.1. its pretty stable, little bugs here and there but overall very nice and battery life again I would say is above average. Of course this all depends on the custom kernel you choose to run with the rom, I am on UKB 2.1 with stock kernel because my Fascinate doesn't take kindly to undervolting or overclocking so no special kernel for me... hope this helps, take a look around this forum and read the different rom threads in development to see how to install/files to download/known bugs within the rom/user feedback :)

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drnihili:
I hate to say it, but if all you're looking for is stable and decent battery life, go with stock. On a particular phone another ROM may be more stable or offer better life, but no ROM will do so across the board for all phones. Most likely, whatever ROM you try will be no more stable and have no better battery life than stock.

Of course custom ROMs offer other benefits such as being de-bloated or de-binged. But for stability and battery life you are at least as likely to be worse off with a custom ROM as better. You can improve the odds substantially if you have the time to test out different ROMs and settings to find out what works best for that particular phone, but it doesn't sound like you do.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lord dredd:
Well i have used practically all the ROMS available at this point ( except CM ) and with my personal experience i can say go for

DEBLOATED , DEODEXED, DEBINED ED01 and you ll get the best battery and a very very snappy setup , i have done this alreday , initailly there were issues as i didnt follow proper procedure , but when i installed the stuff properly it was working like a charm

Hey man I was wondering if you did this I tried it and it all went to hell after I installed tsm parts kept fc tw.app...... You know. I tried reinstalling the tw.zip and still nothing. I love the stock feel but the lockscreen drives me insane. Note I used landsharks odin file to stock db/do because the orginall zip failed download three times, but I intalled imnuits -50 before tsm parts
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lord dredd:
well TBH i didnt go for the last two things that is

Sbrissen's tsm mod package

The shortlight package

so cant tell , but i think if you follow the procedure as dnoyeb has advised there shouldn't be any issue whatsoever. ( i remember there one type of lock in TSM which was causing issues and one experimental thingy in launcher which was in beta , if you avoid these two u should be good , i cant really pinpoint em as atm i am on dl09 :P )
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Golgotha theskull:
I'll see I didnt even have time to lock the screen as soon as it boot it vibrates three times and fcs amd after I hit close I get the same thing till I odin stock. Im upgraging to edo4 now and trying to download the rom. It sucks bc I use my phone for the internet and they are install lte in my area needless to say its a nightmare lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vahdyx:
Hey guys,

I've tried CM7, Revolutions and Asgard for GB Roms and for me and my 10 hour work days, I need something that'll last a little more and will respond better. My experience with the three roms were not the best, but promising. It didn't dissuade me from GB roms, but rather excited me. I just am gonna have to wait until they're 100% smooth haha.

Anyway, I've only ever really used 2.2 Roms and the only ones I've ever loaded was Axura, Nero/Bionix, and Trigger (and flagship, but I don't count that because it was for a day). I'm wanting something different and I think I've decided on these, but if you guys recommend something different please let me know.

Anyway, I would love to hear your opinions and I appreciate the time you guys are taking to respond.

Respectfully,

Vahdyx
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
I like Bi-Winning and most other 2.2.1 ROMs just because my phone seems to do really well with them. But to be honest, everyone is going to have something different to say. My best advice is just pick one and give it a try for a few days and see how you like it. If you don't like it (or even if you do!) try another, and see which you like better...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MailenJokerbell:
Well, for GB I'm currently using Revolution RC1.

It's pretty neat.

Just one thing, when he uploads something, wait for everyone else to try it.

It seems like the roms always work on his phone and everyone else's just bootloops.

The current version is very stable and fast though.

For 2.2, dunno if you've tried Boinix NextGen v2.

That one was one of the best ROMS I've ever tried.

Not a single error anywhere and the battery was awesome.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
for the 2.21 roms try Biwinning or V if you want to try a good GB rom try the Asgard Rom it is excellent
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awebster:
Hey vahdyx,

I'm a big fan of vanilla ROMs. If you're going to stick with 2.2 for now, I can tell you that http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1054032 is great. There are little bugs though, such as the dialer crashing frequently when editing contact info.

If you want a vanilla ROM with GPS and Swype preinstalled, there is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=832532, but I haven't tried this one.

If you do end up using a 2.2 or 2.2.1 ROM, I highly suggest using the Bali kernel found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1043947. This kernel optimizes battery life so that your phone will have an easier time making it through your workday, but is definitely not for you if you're an overclocker.

From what I've heard, if you are currently at 2.3, if you want to go back to Froyo, I *believe* that you have to ODIN back to stock first. http://androidspin.com/2010/08/09/how-to-restore-or-recover-your-samsung-vibrant/. Youtube is useful if you don't know how to do this.

Hope this helps!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninsei:
Hi. i often share text files between my Nexusone and my Linux box. Is there a single program that runs nicely on both? There's a notes program that runs fine on droid and there's vim encryption that runs fine on my Linux desktop, but I've been unable to find a program that runs nicely on both platforms.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninsei:
I guess if there's an AES-256 encrypt/decrypt program for Android that should work.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
What about APG? If you already have GPG set up, do gpg --export-secret-keys >secret.gpg and get it on your phone, import it, delete the secret.gpg when you're done.

Then search for your GPG key in the public key server to import your public key.

Now you can sign/encrypt/decrypt/verify files on your phone. Send 'em to your PC or whatever, GPG 'em there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninsei:
Thanks but APG doesn't look like what I want. I want to be able to decrypt text files on my droid that have been encrypted on my linux desktop with a command like:

openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -in file.txt -out file.aes

I found a program called "Droid Crypt" that claims to do that but it doesn't seem to.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
So why not just use GPG in Linux?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninsei:
I guess that (GPG on Linux) would do it. And I'll try that if this effort doesn't work: is there an openssl binary available for android?

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t.s.eliot:
I'd suggest trying to run "fastboot devices" before any other commands, just to verify that you have connected to the phone successfully. If you don't get any response from the "fastboot devices" command, you've still got an issue. For my money, the probable sources are lack of drivers, or phone isn't in fastboot mode.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NFHimself:
Hi,

Use moto-fastboot, you can find links in the dev section from -eval and others, it will detect the device, also it supports large partitions, unlike the regular fast boot binary you might find via Google. If you do a lsusb and it shows an nvidia entry, you are good to go on the phone side.

Cheers!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NickPDX:
I have a stock myTouch 3G 32B that won't progress past the initial login screen. I have taken pictures of the different screen/areas that I can get to. I have tried multiple SIM cards at no avail. Any help appreciated! Thanks!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
That is not a brick. Not even close to being a brick. Imagine this, you try to turn your phone on and you're greeted with the old familiar splash screen, but it stays like that, nothing happens, you start to worry and decide to boot into recovery, same thing happens, you freak out and try fastboot, same result. That's a brick. That doesn't happen to too many people, but when it does, its effing scary.

Now onto your problem. Are you sure the Sims you tried had working data? Did you try them in another phone to verify?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NickPDX:
Thanks tvall ... I guess I should have used a different word that bricked since I know a true brick is completely non functional. This phone however is completely useless at this state though. :-(

As for the SIM cards, they were taken out of my HD2 (running Android), my wifes HD2 (also Android), Samsung Vibrant, and then a dumb phone. All the smart phones have data plans and work when their proper SIM cards are installed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
Well the phone suggested to call customer care, and it is a SMARTphone. Try taking its advice?

What I do when I have major problems is flash a sappimg and start over. (That is also the only times my phone runs stock software. I rooted on day one and flashed cm haven't gone back to stock)

Maybe, if your ok with root, do the goldcard rooting process and see if a custom rom can get data?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NickPDX:
The phone was purchased used off craigslist ... wasn't sure if that would come up or matter if customer care was called. The whole point of this is that I was hoping to root and get a custom rom on there (trying to fix up for my niece to use). The problem is though that I don't think that I can root without a goldcard and I can't create a gold card without getting into the settings page and getting info about the phone (right?). If there is a way to do any of this using ADB or any other method I am all ears.

Also you said something about flashing a sappimg and starting over ... can I do this without the phone being rooted? It is 100% stock AFAIK.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
You can make a goldcard with any HTC android phone
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NickPDX:
I was thinking that the gold card that is used to root the phone would have to be made with that phone as well. So I can use my G1 to make a goldcard that I can use to root this myTouch3G?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tvall:
Yep. Goldcards are not phone specific
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] NickPDX:
Thanks! I have never seen anything saying that in all of my research. I would have never figured that out on my own. I will create a gold card with my G1 when I get home from work and root that myTouch with it.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MrTechie:
Im looking to get a new tablet and im now stuck between the Xoom or the 10.1.

For the money im looking to spend i have the choice of either the wifi 32gb Xoom or the wifi 16gb 10.1.

NOW...

Im an old android user and have always keep an eye out for the latest kernels and roms.

One thing thats puching me away from the 10.1 is the fact that its 16gb with no possibility of expansion.

What are the benefits of getting the 10.1?

Has anyone tried both? Whats your views...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Itaintrite:
You should consider the Asus TF instead of the Xoom. Cheaper and better.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
I actually returned my Xoom wi-fi last week and ordered the Galaxy Tab which arrived today. The Xoom 32GB is selling for the same $599 that the Galaxy is selling for so I don't know why you have to give up half the space? Software-wise I hardly see a difference but comfort-wise there is no comparison. I find typing is easier on the Galaxy since the tablet is so much thinner when I'm holding it my fingers reach more keys.

Also I like the screen more.

Downside to the Samsung is there is no built-in expansion. From my point of view that's not really a problem since any really large files will either be put on the Tab temporarily or when it's available I'll stream them. 32GB is really enough space as far as I'm concerned.

Just a few initial thoughts...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MrTechie:
Looking around here in the UK the best deals are simply £430 for the Xoom 32gb and £440 for the GT 16gb.

Does the GT have a usb port? Can it be used for Mass Storage devices?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] droxid:
I love my 10.1

Here's a few things I consider

Pros:

Lighter

Thinner

Better screen

Snappier (IMO)

Battery

Cons:

Behind on apps/roms

Expansion

The weight was my deciding factor. The Xoom was just too damn heavy!

(I know its not by much...but still)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EvoXOhio:
The xoom is heavier, more expensive, and has one of the worst screens found on an electronic device in the past 5 years.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] markp99:
Returned XOOM for SGT 10.1:

1. Form factor has turned out to be a larger factor for me than I expected. The SGT just feels nice in your hands!

2. Weight, only a slight advantage to SGT 10.1 in reality for me. Both feel heavy after a while of unsupported usage.

3. Screen was my PRIMARY motivation for swapping. The XOOM really did feel dull and washed out. The SGT 10.1 is very vibrant in comparison - very very nice!

Personally, I couldn't wait to root and rom the hell out of my HD2, it was such a crappy out-of-box experience. That's how I found XDA.

IMO, the HD7 and WP OS are pretty flawless, and I have no wants or desires to jailbreak it. I'm not looking to hop carriers or sideload apps, so I personally see no need for it.

That said, the list of why you might want to is just about the same for rooting/jailbreaking any phone.

[HD7 General] TheRaggyGandalf:
If you have phone that was shipped with NoDo (7.0.7390 afaik) you are out of luck, since we can't unlock them yet. (there may be some possibilities involving flashing but I#m not sure)

If you have one of the old ones you can use the "Chevron" tool (after an eventual downgrade) and then update, it will stay unlocked.

The "legal" way would be to buy an $99/year developer account and officially unlock your phone. (Or if you are a student you will get one for free)

However I would wait and stay tuned, since MS seems to introduce an official free way of side loading apps fore those who do not need a complete dev account.
