[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Megacamz:
I've had my streak since launch which is pretty much a year now and I've been looking to take the plunge and smack a nice custom ROM on my streak.

Of course I want gingerbread etc but my problem is that there seems to be a distinct lack of Custom ROMs being finished.

It used to be the case on a phone that there would be great stable ROMs with incremental updates to fix little annoyances here and there, but all of these custom ROMs have massive flaws and there's so many of them being pumped out e.g "streakdroid" which is over version 2 now and still has major problems?

Can someone please point me in the direction of a nice stable custom rom?

thanks
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scdsone:

i dont know which is most stable as i dont use either

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kumouri:
The most stable Gingerbread ROM for the Streak is Streakdroid 2.3. It's still not stable, though, because Dell never released any firmware other than an Alpha release of Kernel code for 2.3. They have since discontinued the device which means there are only a handful of devs left here to finish an entire ROM, not just make it better.

If you want a totally stable release you're going to have to go with a 2.2 ROM, and they still aren't totally stable. Try StreakDroid 1.9.1 or SimpleStreak 1.2 (Not really a custom ROM, more of just a parred down version of stock ROM)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssoorruu:
the most recommended rom is froyo stock

Didn't think it was worthy of starting a new thread.

What is the most stable 2.2 or 2.3 ROM right now.

I don't need anything fancy. Just want something that is debloated and quick and stable. Needs to be at least 2.2.

New to Streak 5, just trying to help out my Mom with a phone for her.

Edit, n/m. I broke the Streak due to the stupid battery cover/reboot issue. Bought a Samsung Infuse instead. Will put the Streak on eBay in as-is condition noting what happened.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] explodingboy70:
Occasionally a total reformat of your internal SD is required, especially after several months.

To do this you want to move anything you want saved to your computer including titanium backup folder. After you've saved everything boot into recovery and go to mounts and storage there you'll be able to format. When done you'll have to boot download mode, go to voodoo section of recovery. Now Odin stock firmware and the flash whatever Tom you want, rejoice and click the thanks button.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lotherius:
Here's the deal:

1) Use only "proper" releases, by which I mean, NO PORTS and NO CM7/MIUI based releases. That would me no 2.2.1 or 2.3 versions.

2) Do NOT overclock. AT ALL.

3) Do NOT undervolt. AT ALL.

4) Format your SD Card. Also try removing it temporarily to eliminate it as faulty.

5) DO NOT EVER RESTORE ANY SYSTEM DATA USING TITANIUM BACKUP! IT WILL CAUSE CRASHINESS.

5) All else fails, ODIN to stock and see if the phone is crashing. Make sure it is stable BEFORE installing a bunch of apps. Some of those apps could be causing issues.

If step 5 fixes it but nothing else does, then you are missing a step. Go back and re-read and try again.

If, however, it still crashes after step 5, then you have a faulty phone. Do a warranty exchange.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] were2:
Hi guys, I've got a big Legend related problem.

A while ago, when I used CM7 odd errors have shown up. There were many freezes, the drop down bar began to make silly things (droped down when I put my finger anywhere on the screen, regulary wasn't usable, the upper part of the screen just won't react) and after a few pics in the gallery the zoom function began to go mad (zoom in and out extremly fast w/o me doing anything on the screen).

After I gone back to the regular Android w/ Sense, the errors occured less, but still pretty often.

And now, I can't access any wireless network (I don't only mean wifi, any network, not GPS, not UMTS etc.).

I'm not sure if the reason ist just, that the Legend is broken. After the change from CM to Sense everything began to work better, but now everything is just ****ed up.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pepijn499:
What have you tried so far? Do you still have warranty?

However, it's getting worse so I'll flash back to an unrooted Rom and send it in.

I'm interested in creating a script that I will run every time I install or update a ROM to speed up common things I do. Some things I would like it to do right now include:

Rename /system/media/audio/ui/camera_click.ogg to camera_click.ogg.bak

edit /system/build.prop to change ro.opengles.version from 65537 to 131072

I know there's an app called Script Manger that you can use to run scripts as root. I'm just not sure how to write a script.

I put Skype on my XT720 today because it said it would work with the back camera (since there's no front facing one). I tried some calls though and the video didn't seem to work...

Hi there,

I have been running SD Android builds for a couple of months, still a beginner. I'm happy with WinMo + Android SD build(s) ... however would we made any progress if we don't investigate further :-) ...

Would NAND Android be any better than SD builds, specifically on Battery & speedness?

Would you recomend NAND vs SD?

MAGLDR OR CLK? What are the differences?

If I want to go back to WinMo ... would it be as easy as having the original stock rom (.nbh file) in a blank microSD and enter the boot loader?

If you still have energy after so many questions, one not as important (I can test myself) ... any ROM recommendation?

Many thanks to all those that make XDA-developers be XDA-developers

Pozi.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Panda_Face:
hey pozi,

I would recommend using NAND, it's a great experience. a TON better than winmo 6.5. I have great battery life, and the speed is as if the HD2 is an android device natively.

MAG vs cLK: I've tried both. The differences are:

cLK boots faster, and doesn't have a cmd prompt screen during boot.

cLK uses PPP for your data connection (MAGLDR uses rmnet). Sometimes you'll have a data drop that can only be fixed by rebooting your phone with PPP. rmnet is completely stable.

For NAND, to get back to winmo, you'll have to flash the official winmo6.5 ROM just as if you'd flash cLK or MAGLDR.

As for ROMs, it's totally up to your preferences. I've used a few, and currently I'm using TyphooN 3.6.0 because it has all the customization that I want. There are other kinds, you'll just need to test with a bunch to find what you like.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pozi:
Thanks for your answer.

What does great battery life mean for you: 12h, 24h, 36h, 48h ... ?

In average, I'm just trying to have an idea compared to my 12h on SD.

THANKS AGAIN.

Pozi.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Panda_Face:
It depends on your setup:

What accounts are syncing, What apps are using background data,... you probably know the drill.

I use an app that disables my data usage and periodically re-enables it to sync with everything. So far my battery hasn't lasted any less than 13 hours.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lumpy76:
Hi,

im used to flash the Boyppc's roms with cwr so on Nand after have handled a lot of builds on SD card. The battery life is great (2h of music, mail and internet 2-3h and others things with from a mobile so i use 60-70%) the speed is awesome and no problems if I need to remove the card from my phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] videira:
I have tried many roms, I change every few months ... Until I find the "perfect" ROM...

I recommend NAND.

In my opinion it's faster, more stable and less problems.

Great battery life. With normal use you can enjoy almost a day of battery.(but if you use 3G the battery dies)

Right now I'm using the rom TyphooN_CM7_v3.6.0 MAGLDR, my favorite.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pianoman102:
Yes definitely go for nand. Its so much smoother and faster than an SD build. I would imagine that android nand would conserve battery life vs. SD just because nand isn't going through so many processes to make your phone run.

Heck, if you really want to save your battery turn on airplane mode. You'll go for days :-P
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbenz:
I would also agree with the other posters that going with a NAND ROM gives you better battery life than an SD ROM. For me, my current NAND ROM has a standby battery drain of 2-5mA vs. my previous SD ROM with a standby battery drain of 7-9mA. I am currently using Tytung's Nexus HD2 v3.0 ROM. Very stable and fast. Everything is working very well. No force closes or drops in data. Market is very stable as well. Call quality is very clear and probably is one of the best that I have tried. I use MAGLDR since it is very easy to use, is very stable and compared to an SD ROM, is much faster to load from off. Try 45-50 seconds from off. If I remember, my SD ROM took almost 4-5 minutes to boot up from off.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dakargr:
As i have just readed the posts would say that your main problem is the BATTERY thing..right??

NAND is is the most stable , fast , battery saver , that you can offer to your phone..as all the people of xda writing above me ^^.

Now if you care about battery try finding a rom thats STABLE ...and not fancy with Effects and cool weather ,live wallpapers and many many other..try getting something stable - fast - and with no much bg programs to run....! :)

What kind of ROM are you looking for? We can help you narrow down your search.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pozi:
Dayly use, so:

phone + bt + wifi + good responsiveness/overall speed (actually Speed IS important)

gps (not frequent but must work)

battery life (*)

HTC Sense or SPB Shell ready ... any other fancy launcher?

Good to have: navigate through PC's internet connection when USB connected (though saving battery due to not use WIFI and not use my little 3G data plan). Maybe this can be added with an .apk ?

Thanks Pozi.

(*) By the way Panda_Face I followed your suggestion of flight mode to save battery, it did work and saved a lot of battery :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Panda_Face:
There is a "patch" of sorts for GPS which makes it connect a lot faster. It usually takes a few minutes to get any sort of lock from the satellites without it. (Click here to read about it).

I'd recommend either the TyphooN Cyanogenmod or the Nexus HD2. They are both very stable, and have all the latest and greatest stuff for them. They are also well known. Their forum pages have been viewed millions (not joking) of times, so there is a lot of support. And as far as I know they both have everything working (phone + bt + wifi) are very responsive.

To help with responsiveness use just a plain old normal wallpaper. The live ones --from what I've seen--- tend to lag the scrolling and flipping home screens and such.

I use an app called "JuiceDefender". The free version turns off my data connection (3g) and periodically turns it back on to sync with email, etc. The other paid versions of this have more options such as managing your wifi and other connections. This alone has doubled my battery life.

Hope this helps!

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Panda_Face:
Battery life is a plus. NAND is nice because it makes your phone feel now like a native android phone. Also you get to dedicate more space on your card for things. finally, you'll be getting rid of winmo 6.5 (worst operating system ever) it killed my first hd2; wouldn't boot one day.

Android NAND is the way to go :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbenz:
I would also agree with Panda_Face, Android NAND is the way to go. Very smooth and fast. Much less memory intensive. Gingerbread ROM that I am on used a zip file of slightly less than 90mB vs. my old HTC Sense ROM using 445mB of space. Both NAND ROMs were smooth and fast but going with the "lighter" Gingerbread ROM gave me a much faster boot up time. Less than half the time the HTC Sense ROM I used. Battery life is better on NAND vs. SD. Also, when I was using Android via SD, I never realized until I went NAND, how the SD ROM was not smooth when compared to the NAND ROM I am using now.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pozi:
Man ... I started this thread because I wasn't sure neither. I use a class 6 SD ... who cares ... I followed suggestions and I'm clear NAND is the way to go, no doubts. If you've used SD now you know you don't want WinMo any more so ... go for NAND ... you could always go back to WinMo anyway.

I've been a WinMobile supporter for many years and I'm sorry to say, but it is over now.

Good luck.
