That's the thread for CM9 with all the fixes. Installing all the ROMS here is the same just a full wipe then flash. This is my method for every ROM I flash and it cuts down on the user created bugs.

Place ROM on your sd-card

Reboot to recovery

*select mounts/storage*

Format System

Format Cache

Format Data

*go back*

Wipe data/factory reset

*go back and choose advanced*

Wipe dalvik cache.

And, if S-on, fastboot flash the boot.IMG to ensure the kernel makes the trip...

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Like Strapped said, either Miktouch or CM9.1r8 should do well for you. I found the r8 release of CM9.1 to be very stable and the battery life was very good, though not as good as Miktouch.

It all comes down to what you like best on your phone, it is a personal choice. Myself, I like the "polish" of how the stock ROM looks, with Sense and all the Sense widgets. Also, the camera and gallery that comes with the Sense stock ROM just can't yet be matched by any other ROM. But, if you prefer the newer underpinnings of Ice Cream Sandwich and the look of pure Android, then you can't go wrong with the CM9.1r8. Try them both, make a nandroid of each one so you can alternate between them, get a feel for each one, then decide.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
OK, well after the luster of using this ROM for a week I am starting to see problems. Though I think the problems are related to the SneakyPete kernel from what I've read. I also have a problem with charging from a USB port, 1 out of 5 times it sends the phone into either a freezing or bootloop frenzy. Also I have a strange problem where sometimes the trackpad wake will work to turn the screen on but the actual power button won't. Lastly, today after a full charge on USB the phone froze and I had to remove the battery multiple times to get the screen to come on after boot, after which I was greeted with Superuser had denied SetCPU permissions.

I toned down the upper limit from 1510 to 1350, so I'll see if I'm still having the issue after a few more days. Just in case, does anyone have the link to the stock kernel?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
I can get you a stock kernel after bit.... Or in the themes and apps section in the modified camera thread
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
That's the issues I've had when trying to use an alternate kernel. I have the standard kernel already packaged for flashing (I've used it many times to return to after trying a new kernel). I can send you a link if you like via PM. I use the standard kernel set with 1188max/192min/Interactive governor/noop scheduler and it runs very well, very smooth.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] siani_8:
I'm currently using the stock kernel with camera flash restrictions lifted from the from the modified camera thread and no hiccups to report in the couple of weeks of almost straight use.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
A big reason I keep coming back to this. At 20% power left. Yes, display is off most of the time because I'm at home and the phone sits connected to Bluetooth. Notice that most power goes to voice calls, I use the bluetooth to make/receive calls via the phone. But that is my normal use, that is why bluetooth is so important to me. :victory:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jmpnjimbob:
Stock theme or flashable zip

In an earlier posting it was mentioned that with a possible 0.8 version of this ROM that we could have the stock HTC style clock or the inverted white on black style clock that the current version of the ROM now has.

So that leads me the the question: is there a theme or flashable zip file that can give me the stock style clock on the current ROM?

I really prefer OEM based ROMs and this one has turned out to be a very nice solid and dependable daily driver. So regardless of whether or not I can change the clock I'll continue to use it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I also prefer the black on white of the stock HTC clock, but I tolerated this inverted one because the rest of the ROM was just so good. After trying some of the Sense 3.6/4 ROMs and seeing their additional clock widgets (the 4x1 weather clock being my favorite), I was really wishing for that one on this ROM but that is a part of Sense. Then, I found that Fancy Widgets has the 4x1 weather clock widget. I like Fancy Widgets (have tried the others, like Beautiful Widgets, etc.) because when you set it up correctly, it uses very little resources (it can be a battery pig if you set it to update too often or do lockscreens). Here is my current home screen with the Fancy Widget clock I like. This is on this Miktouch 0.7 ROM.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jmpnjimbob:
Thanks, the Fancy Widgets worked like a charm. I knew that there were other widgets available but I just didn't think of them at the time.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
Yeah I'm going to need a copy of the stock kernel with the camera/low battery fix. Just having random issues appearing when charging or plugging into USB ports. They're random but somewhat frequent now, nothing I can specifically nail down as the cause.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Stock kernel us in the rom. The other is in themes and apps camera thread
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
That could be a hardware problem, or maybe some bad app is interfering. This ROM has the pure stock kernel from HTC.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
No I'm using the Sneaky Pete kernel, I didn't see the link in the other thread for the stock and patched kernel (thought you took the link down!)

*EDIT* Got the other kernel from the other thread as mentioned. A few of the little quirks I was experiencing stopped, so far so good.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
Can somebody tell me which kernel works best on this? :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Basically the stock one, there hasn't been any compiles from me that were worth anything
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Depends on what you mean by "best", that is very subjective. If you mean the most stable, where everything works, then the kernel that is installed with the ROM (the stock HTC kernel) is the best. Strapped365 has made a few other kernels, like the one mentioned above that is the stock kernel with the camera flash tweak, as well as some OC/UV kernels. I've run the OC/UV kernels and they are mostly stable, but can hiccup occasionally. I run this ROM on the pure stock kernel as my "daily driver", I seem to always revert back to this. I do change the speeds/governor/scheduler, though. I have it running 1188max/192min/Interactive/Deadline (I use No-Frills CPU Control app) and I get excellent battery life and very good performance.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
That's exactly what I wanted to know. Awesome! :laugh:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] stylez:
Pretty much same here except user voltage control it's just a shame that there was no more gov/sced as Lulz is one of me favorite, tried the experimental kernel but ended up with no tether ” module” missing, after striping out all sense and t mobile bloat I've found daily driver.

One thing I will ask since not under media where it's animation.zip yes I found it before in some unusual place but if anyone can remind would be much appreciated
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Look in data/local for boot animation

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
Does this ROM support VPN? I've plugged in all my settings correct but it won't connect via T-Mo's network. Works fine on WiFi. Or am I just doing something wrong?

*EDIT* - Got L2TP working, but PPTP doesn't work. Guess that's fine...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
That would be something to ask HTC/T-Mobile about as this is their ROM just optimized to run better.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I used L2TP without any problem while I was in China last summer. I didn't try PPTP since that was blocked by the Great Firewall.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
Bump. Any updates? Nothing wrong that I've experienced except for the occasional app weirdness (due to the app itself) but just wanted to see if there was any additional work done. Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I doubt you'll see any unless perhaps HTC releases a major update to Gingerbread. I wouldn't hold my breath. It's optimized stock ya know.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Tomb77:
SMS

I have an issue with sms only allowing to send a certain amount of text at a time. I didn't change any settings. Anyone have a fix? I will try a fresh install if not. I have this on my wife's phone and was hoping to avoid that. Thank you

Issues are on go sms pro and with the native messenger.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I'm definitely not going to hold my breath waiting for anything from HTC, however, a recent ruling (just a few weeks ago in February) by the FCC against HTC will require them to issue a patch of some sort for many of their older phones, and the MT4GS should be included in that. There is some speculation that it could mean HTC will finish some updates they had shelved and will finally push them out for several models. There was rumor that HTC had been working on an ICS update for our phone but stopped development. Maybe they will finish it and push it out? Who knows, they are going to have to patch something.

You could always just try clearing cache/dalvik cache (from Recovery) and reboot. That can clear up a lot of anomalies and doesn't require a reinstall. I have used Handcent SMS for several years as my SMS app, I've not had any SMS/MMS issues and this ROM is my daily.

Thanks for the reply. Neither worked unfortunately. I flashed over and the issue is no longer their. I looked in the native app settings and nothing is different nor is their any setting that would seem to cause that issue. Had some failing app issues afterwards the flash over, so I fixed permissions and everything seems to be functioning now.

is there a battery % mod?

got tired of the unstableness of sense 4 infinity, i needed something i could use everyday without problems
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
You mean a mod for the notification bar? None that I've seen, since this is strickly stock MySense 3.0, which is modified by HTC from the regular Sense 3.0.

I use Battery Solo Widget Pro (there is also a free version), it provides much more info. But, it isn't on the notification bar, just your homescreen.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
I wish we

Could get darker backlight levels on here. I think we would save even more battery life.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
You're not going to see better battery life on ANY ROM than what you have available with this one. Sometimes I'm getting between 35-43 hours of uptime on this ROM. I can leave my phone on the nightstand, with wifi and bluetooth both up and connected, and awake 8 hours later with only 2% battery drop, with notifications of a few WeChat messages as well as emails received during the night. I've never been able to duplicate the low battery consumption on any other ROM, closest was the sun_dream Sensation 3.3.2 port of ICS with Sense3.6.

Note, this ROM does come with an HTC bug in that the Auto backlight setting gets reset when you use the camera. After using the camera the brightness will be on maximum with Auto unchecked. You have to go into Settings > Display > Brightness and recheck Auto. This is a bug contained in the stock ROM from HTC.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
I was asking about lower auto light sensor cause this thing be mad bright in the dark bothers the wifey lol. But ill just keep manuly setting it.

Yes working great thankyou
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
How are the modified kernels working for people? I'm on the stock kernel with the camera mod, but I think I want to OC it a little. Any particular one recommended?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
During testing of those kernels, it seems this phone is really picky. Strapped could run all of them, but my phone would only work with the first and last version he produced. I had some instability with both of them, though. Mainly, lots of "black screen of death" syndrome (that can happen even on the stock kernel but very rarely). I would OC to 1.5GHz but battery life suffered a lot.

On the stock kernel, it seemed my phone started lagging really badly on this ROM. Through trial-and-error, I figured out the problem is the Facebook app. I uninstalled that POS (and later uninstalled a few other apps that I didn't really use) and now my phone seems so much snappier. When I do want to look at Facebook (or Twitter), I just use the built-in Friendstream app that is part of Sense. Also, I use Kernel Tuner to set my governor and speeds. I discovered that other kernel apps only affect CPU1 or CPU0, not both. Kernel Tuner can set both of them identical, which can make it much more stable, I think.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WangChung81:
Very interesting about the Kernel Tuner!

Do you know where I can get the "last" version of the kernel? I'll give it a shot, phone just feels like it's getting tired but I think it's just showing its age.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
actually I run mik sense all day and its stays snappy. No kernel tuner just stripped the rom from all the sense stuff like sense launcher (I replaced it with adw) stripped most apps but the ones I use of course. Walla brand new fast original rom that I know runs great cause miks are stable. Lol:D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I like Sense in the ROM, I don't have any problem, it is very responsive for me. All other launchers just look too "unfinished" to me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cryptic3:
To bad this hasn't been updated for about a year
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Since it is based on the last stock HTC ROM which hasn't seen an update in forever, there really isn't much need to update anything with this.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nl1bzw:
Installed miktouch 0.7, but after installing al my apps, this rom doesn't want to start anymore. Reinstalled the rom again and only removed some apps and it also doesn't want to restart anymore.

Any people who experience the same problem with this rom?

Edit -> Seems to be that morelocale2 causes the crash. After installing it and changing the language to dutch the rom doesn't start anymore. Does anyone has a solution for it? Or maybe knows how to solve this?

Thanks already
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Odd, I used morelocale2 last summer to have Chinese Simplified support on this ROM, it worked very well without any problem. Maybe the version of morelocale2 is an issue?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nl1bzw:
Also tried "Set Locale and Language" but has to same issue when switching to dutch. When restarting the phone you only see the mytouch logo and it stops there. You don't see the miktouch boot animation anymore.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
*Late quote*

What was your install process? What recovery did you use? What's your BL status? What did you wipe prior to install? What did you restore after the install?

All stupid questions, but they should be listed so we can eliminate a bad flash.

Fuzi is the pickiest out of anyone on the forum(not in a bad way, I'm just as picky as he is now). And for this to be his daily go to ROM is great (thanks man) but even when he traveled abroad last year I don't think he had a single gripe. So I hope its either a bad flash or a bad app. But I'll keep and eye on the thread to see your reply.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Yeah, I do tend to demand a lot from a ROM. :angel: I'm not a gamer so I don't demand the bleeding edge in performance, though I don't want to wait 10 seconds for my Handcent app to open when I get a text, either. When I travel I don't have great access or the time to mess with flashing and wiping and all that, so I want everything to work without drama. I don't want to be in the middle of nowhere and my phone keeps crashing when I try to snap a photo or get a map, etc.

I'm almost at 2 years with this phone, it is soon going to be time for a new one. I haven't decided on what to get. I'm strongly leaning towards the Nexus 4 (or the next Nexus that comes out) simply because of the ROMs. Also, the rumored Google/Motorola X-Phone could be a game-changer. My partner also might buy me a new Huawai Ascend P2, which is a sweet phone and he can get it pretty cheaply in China. He has the previous Huawei top-end model and loves it, though he is not as demanding. I'm not desperate, so I can wait to see what plays out in the coming months.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Yeah I absolutely love my Nexus...just ask weekends lol. He knows all about it.

I watched a CNET video on the P2, and while paper specs look awesome, when he went into the bean flinger you can clearly see the device struggling to even move the beans and they sorta like jumped rather than a smooth glide.

I guess I'm spoiled because of my Nexus, so I'm basing all other devices on it. I'm also very spoiled in the development department, tons upon tons :D. I love vanilla Android and all the top devs officially support Nexus so our updates come so fast its not funny.

*The only reason I bought Nexus was to stay on the bleeding edge of development
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Sorry for double post. It wouldn't let me attach an image to the last one.

But in this screen shot I am playing Angry Birds in side the new Halo feature from Paranoid Android. Right over Google play. It also allows me to do true true multitasking by being able to cycle notifications. There is an old app in Google Play that let's you set an app as an ongoing notification and I use that for my camera and can open the camera right over anything I'm doing, snap a shot touch outside the Halo and keep it pushing :D

Most users complain at first when they see the min CPU speed being 1026 and max being 1516. But that's only when you touch the screen. When its idle the CPU runs at 384, but the split second you touch the screen it ramps to a min 1026 and its oh so fast. I still haven't been able to lag my device at all.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Here's a link to "Sneaky-Pete" but there was another that I missed out on. Give it a try though. This one worked best for about half the folks and vise versa.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
Good looking on the tweak and kernel already in dropbox for safe keeping
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
As good as battery life already is on that ROM, I even saw that kernel improve it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I wonder if I already have that one? I have 4 or 5 different kernels for Miktouch that I tested with strapped. WTH, I'm downloading and going to give it a try anyway. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
Share the kernels you got
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Sneaky Pete is the one I didn't have. I had another 1.5GHz kernel that strapped did but it was just an early test and wasn't stable for my phone. The other kernels I have are 1.7GHz max kernels but again, my phone wasn't fond of them though they worked fine for strapped.

So far, Sneaky Pete is doing fine for me. It is doing deep sleep (which that other one wouldn't do), and I have it set for 192 min and SmartassV2 governor. That seems to provide me the best of battery life and performance.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
Yes big thanks getting a easy 16+ hours in battery life there just the first day on it hasn't settled in yet lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I've gotten 48+ hours on the stock kernel but that's unusual.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Emmaugoh:
AM LOVING THIS ROM, JUST MY DAILY DRIVER,NO BUGs DIS COVERED YET.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
For stability and "everything works", this ROM has always been tough to beat. Newer ROMs have more flash and wow, but this one just works.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] josh2020glacier:
I must agree worth you haven't got this kind of battery life on any other roms but this one for real
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] butch87402:
So to get the same battery saving results as you guys all I have to do is flash the kernel and that's it? No kernel tuner? Because when I go into the app it says that none of the CPU are loaded just CPU load....and this is when i flashed sneaky Pete
