[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] HonkDragonfly:
This is always going to be a question that never has the perfect answer. It depends on what you want/need. Go sense if you want the classic evo look and just want the basic experience its for people who don't care as much about making the device faster and better, they just want it to work and the only real reason they rooted it was to get rid of the bloatware. Keep it simple stupid. Honestly sense is fast, but aosp is is much more reliable and stable. Sense kernels have that small chance of corrupting your file system if and when your device crashes. It's a small chance but a chance none the less.

AOSP is by far the best for the ones who do want to unlock the devices full potential. AOSP (Android open source project) roms are more difficult to create and perfect but they give these devices more potential but its also up to the user to do his or her research. Don't flash or tweak even the slightest thing until you do your research and search xda and google. When you find a guide that of course isn't too old and you know you can trust it, read it over and over and bookmark it. Always search xda but never listen to the opinions of others until you test it yourself.

These rom creators work hard and they expect us to know what we are doing.

tl;dr - I will just say this, if your willing to spend more time to give you the best experience go AOSP. And if you go AOSP go CyanogenMod and nothing else. And for the kernel if you do wish to use a custom kernel I hightly recommend Komodo if you want an even better user experience.

Best rom is...

... the one that works best for you :)

FWIW. I love the ViperRom. Phone feels like it just "works" and, if I want, there are lots of customizations available.

That said, I just switched to HatkaLTE because I wanted to stay with a sense rom and it seems to me that the last update of ViperRom reintroduced the original rom's sensor problems on my phone. [I say seems because it's still not perfect, just better, on the HatkaLTE and maybe the hardware has developed a defect]. I can't say much about this rom yet because I haven't had it on my phone long enough and because I'm also playing around with different launchers at the same time.

Good luck!

IDK, but I'm really excited to install the new VIPERROM

Very, very excited. Hopefully it (re)fixes the proximity sensor problem, but if not, I have the init file all ready to solve the problem myself!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wolfclan68:
I have to agree with many of the posts, it's more of a personal taste question. I've run almost every ROM at some point, and I love the speed of AOSP, but like the features of Sense. There are a few key features that you lose on AOSP. After a whole lot of flashing, I've settled on SuperJelly Bareback, it strips out all the bloat of Sense while retaining those key features, and is almost spot on with the speed of AOSP. It's my happy medium. Good luck and happy flashing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Los Altos:
If you dont need Bluetooth, Sense 5. Otherwise Viper or Super LTE.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Nephilyn:
All personal preference, I've noticed general consensus here is near stock experience with tweaks. I prefer customization and I'm currently running Root-Box nightly. A combination rom of CyanogenMod, AOKP and PA.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ljbha007:
Hello everyone!

I want to develop a app that allows my desktop and tablets to use my cellphone's outgoing/incoming telephony service, including calling and text-messaging.

I used to research a lot on this topic, when I wanted to make a call recorder app.

My research on the Internet found out that it's impossible to capture voice down-link using Google's Android SDK (this API : developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaRecorder.AudioSource.html#VOICE_DOWNLINK)

So I decided to build a shared library or daemon program running in root permission which allows me to access the phone's audio driver directly.

After checking out the entire Android Open Source Project, I found Nexus S's files in /devices/samsung/crespo folder.

I assume those CPP source files ./audio folder is the one used for JNI binding for Dalvik VM, so I read part of these codes, I found out it uses another shared library called "libsecril-client.so".

Morever, I found there's a library called "libtinyalsa.so" in my /system/lib folder on my cellphone.

Can anyone point out which shared library should I use to achieve what I want (hopefully with a link to documentation)?

Just thought I'd let everyone know that http://www.ebuyer.com are selling some very cheap 256meg SD cards.

http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/prod...2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=47038

Current price as of posting is:

Our Price £47.49

£55.81 inc VAT

Delivery is about £2.99 in the Uk

Alternatively, your local jessops store stocks an equivalent Sandisk one, and they will do pricematching. Just march in like I did with your xda showing the page. or a printout done on the day (pricing really is that volatile!) Word of advice, the actual product page doesnt seem to appear on the pocket PC... show them the "all products in category listing" sort by price.

Lets hope that 512meg/1 gig ones start getting to be affordable! :wink:

[Android Apps and Games] emprize:
thanks for your download and suggestion,

what do u mean by the high quality picture? u mean actually download the pic or the image in app?

I really like this idea. One suggestion, can you do it sort of like when you go to Google's home page? Have a box below you can click in and search for something? It would be neat to have a doodle of the day on my home screen that I could search from. I have attached a picture to show sort of what I'm talking about.

Are your colors backwards on the pin?

White pins, red removes. (or is my colors off)

I'm having widget issues. Keeps crashing my launcher. Its probably my launcher. I'm using Atom Launcher (testing for educational purposes) and will load up my Nova and see if it works that way.

Thanks dev, I'm a big fan of the doodle and often go to Google from Chrome just to see it.

TrustGo says there's a threat

I'm just posting what TrustGo has told me after installing the app on my Nexus 4:

==============

Threat name: Adware!PushAD.A@Android

This app has the ability to read your IMEI and leak it to third-party websites. Furthermore, it may push unwanted adds to your phone's notification bar and download apps resulting in general annoyance.

==============

So I just uninstalled it as recommended by TrustGo until further clarification :confused:

Why is all of the above needed for the app to work?

Thanks in advance.

[Android Apps and Games] hutzdani:
Nice app, great idea !

Few Ideas for you to make it better.

1. Loose the Notification Icon in the Notification bar, no matter what notification mode is enabled.

2. Apon clicking the Current Doodle launch Google now, this way the doodle would match the Google now doodle :D or like someone said make the Doodle appear with a search bar so its a usable search item, this would be better than the google one !

3. The Main menu screen is weird its not simple to use or intuitive, a simple menu would be better

[Android Apps and Games] simo2103:
Bought donate version but...

I've bought the donate version to support your work, but, it needs some improvements, just like:

1) Option to disable notification bar didn't work, sgs2

2) Menu is too complicated, just need some google's aestetic improvement and make it simplier (Use like holo ui)

3) Will be better, (A lot better) to just make the widget open google now and not the actual menu that open now...

With these improvements, it will be the BEST MUST HAVE search widget EVER

Hope u will take a look to my suggestion,

cheers

[Android Apps and Games] urcindalo:
Thanks very much for your time :)

I guess the normal version, i.e., the first entry you get when you search for CodeG in Google Play. I didn't even know there was a donate version.

So, which ones of the above permissions are responsible for triggering the warnings about reading IMEI, leaking it or push adds?

I ask it purely for learning purposes. I know sometimes security agents detect threats where there's none :D

I just reflashed a rom and haven't had a chance to check it again, but it was on a verizon galaxy note ii running beans 11 and nova

If that helps at all.

Also i would prefer if a click would take me straight to google now if that is possible so i could replace the other google search with this :)

Love the concept. However, on my Note II, it stretches the image all weird. To get the image "normal" I have to resize it down to 1×3.

Also, I'd like to echo previous requests - clicking on the image should take me to Google search/Google now. You would still be able to access the doodle-viewing app by accessing it through the app drawer.

You should try a different frame.png to make the widget look better. Maybe a .9 png. Playing around with the app I created a png but it would need to be a patch 9 image to look right on all phones. I changed the frame to look better on my phone. This is what I did.
