[Nexus One General] speedy328:
The phone info shows my Nexus One (which is correct). There is no way for me to check the ESN even when I am logged into Swype.

You are right that every OS update required a re-installation of Swype, I think I remember one time when I had to contact them to re-load the ESN. The problem now is that if you send them an e-mail they tell you to check their forum (which I've yet to find helpful).

I'll keep trying and will update this thread if I have positive results. Thanks to all for your help!

That phone is more realistic and it would look sick. It would really suck if you lost the bluetooth attached headset. We can expect phones like this around 2015-2020.
[EVO 4G General] Last-Chance:
the pomegranate phone is possible as well. Nanotech could make that 100% possible.
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
Except for the shaver/cofeemaker. Totally unsanitary.
[EVO 4G General] Last-Chance:
no. nanotech can allow both things to happen. It has 3 different "panels". they can close off the panel with the coffee maker so nothing gets in it, and then the shaver can be on top of the keyboard panel, with a small tank like holder so hair doesn't go down to the keyboard.

Ok Guys my brother just got his mytouch 4G and he over heard that Tmobile charges 14.99 a month for tethering so I thought for him to avoid that problem he would have to gain root access. So my question is this true or not ????????:confused:
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danbutter:
Sounds right to me. You can't tether for free until you do so as far as I know.

Just looking into how to do this as I know someone who just got one and would love to have that ability for free.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmw407:
My phone isn't rooted yet (just got a replacement) and I tethered my netbook using the stock wifi hotspot app that came with the phone.

It let me tether just fine without any problems. When I went to T-Mo's website, it shows up as regular data usage.

It's still free for now.... they wanna get everyone good and used to having it, then through charges start rolling in...
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lghorn:
Free...for now. Sooner or later (likely the former) TMob will start charging as they've already released details on the $14.99 tethering/hotspot plan.

The alternative is to root and use and use another wifi hotspot app (e.g. the Android wifi tethering app).

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nubx:
Hi there :)

I have succesfully installed some different romes, and i did the preformed Hard SPL.

but then i downloaded jackos s2 rom, witch contained a folder named Recommended tool (task29). I thourght, if it's recommended, why not. But after the successful installation. it tried to reboot, but it does not go further than the first htc intro / loading screen.

I have read other similair problems, where thay, press the volume button and power, and then enter bootloader, but i doesnt seem to work with me, also. thay do it while the phone is off... as soon as i put the battery in, it starts.

But i am able to do a hard reset, with power button+call+hangup+reset. But it leads to no good.

Can i buy an SD card, and do some magic there, without needing to pull down bootloader, or is it bricket?

hope you can help :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nubx:
I accually just tried entering the bootloade, by holding the buttons down while inserting the battery, that worked, i guess i can find my way from here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
In the Task29 instructions (the thread is pinned to the top of the ROM Development forum) it says:

When phone boots to "Touch Pro 2" screen (or whatever your splash screen happens to be), I hold down the volume down button while hitting the reset button

Where it says "reset button" I think he means the soft reset button (that you press with the stylus) under the battery cover, not the power button (which to me is not a "reset button" - but its a matter of semantics and I can see the confusion). The combination of volume down and power button (on top of phone) only works when the phone is off, which of course does not apply in this case. Holding down the Volume Down button while hitting the soft reset works, and this is what I have done for the past upteenth ROM flashes. Although I think the first time I flashed a custom ROM, I got confused and pulled the battery like you did. Pulling the battery works. But the soft reset button does the same thing, and according to some, is safer.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred8785:
I tried searching for an answer but couldn't find anything.

When i go to the downloads section in my market only apps i have recently downloaded or paid for appear. Not all the apps i have on my phone.

I recently softbricked my phone going from bionix 4.2 with the ul kernel to bionix v5 beta. I was also one of the unlucky few who had my internal sd wiped when i flashed 4.2 with the UL Kernel. I odined back to JFD and then flashed Bionix 5. I logged in to my google account before and opened the market before i restored any apps from titanium backup. I have tried clearing the cache from the market, tried clearing all data and cache from phone through clockwork, and tried flashing back to 4.2 stock kernel.

It doesnt even recognize apps that came installed like gmail or maps or youtube. only apps i downloaded or have purchased. Does anyone know what could be wrong or what i could do to get the market to recognize my apps?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] down8:
Downloads, by definition, only contains your downloaded apps. The pre-installed apps don't reside there, unless they've been updated....

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fred8785:
Well yes I understand this, but every other rom I have used before the soft brick, would show all of the apps that I restored with titanium backup as downloaded in the market.

Hey Guys,

Recently updated via downloaded package file to official Dell 2.2 Build 11548

Now want to get back to stock 1.6 build 6267.....then most likely again to DJ Steve Build

Pls let me know how to cover rolling back to 1.6 6267

Believe I need to install clockwork recovery......however not sure

Thanks
[Streak 5 General] rodjordan:
I also have a streak which started life with the EU 6267 and I sm now on the 12332 build. I wss previusly on the 11548. The best way is to go back to 1.6 4399, then back to 6267. This I belueve is the only way. Follow tjis link on your pc. Because it does not work on the 2.2 ;-)

http://android.modaco.com/content/d...m/317549/how-to-go-back-from-21-to-00-builds/

And when you finally get to the step where you are attempting to install the 6267 package you will need to make sure you use the attached recovery image. Otherwise you get the FOTA mismatch problem. Let me know if you need more help.
[Vibrant General] swehes:
So there are a few different ROMs out there from different developers and we want to thank them all for doing such a great work. :) Well I do any way. And as there has been questions on which ROM is their favorite, please post a comment to why the ROM you have chosen are your favorite and also list all the ROMs you tested so we know that you didn't just choose the first one

EDIT: I do realize that kernels does play a role in some of the aspects to why you choose the ROM you do. So just vote in according with what kernel comes with the ROM initially and then add comments to what the different kernel does it you changed it.

Note from OP: Just because you haven't tested all the ROMs that doesn't make your opinion less. It just allows us to know that you haven't tested them all. However if you put down information on why you like it it will help other people make a good decision on what they want to get. I agree there is plenty of ROMs out there. I have tested Macnut and Onyx. Right now I'm flashing Axura just because people have tested it and like it a lot and I want to form my own opinion. :)
[Vibrant General] GreggoryD502:
Im running axura 2,04 right now. Ive ran a few of TW roms in the past. But for me the axura rom is the smoothest rom, even without a lag fix. Also everything about it is just pretty. Master has done a wonderful job.
[Vibrant General] regP:
I'm a loyal Macnut user. Its the smoothest/fastest ROM I've tried so far and with the EB-Productions stock kernel the battery life is amazing.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Not to isolate any one developer, as I think they ALL are amazing and we are all very fortunate.. I personally am really digging Axura right now. I heard master may be getting a Mytouch though?
[Vibrant General] Dammit2Hell:
I've only flashed one ROM on my Vibrant and that's Auxura. Went from Stock JI6 to 2.0.3 to 2.0.4 and now 2.0.5

It's a great, clean, fast ROM. I didn't flash a kernel so I assume I am still using the one from JI6. I had been considering some others before I found this one. Couldn't decide. I found the youtube video for Axura and it looked good enough for me to want to try it. I really don't see trying any others right now. This one is perfect.

Oh, and Master did get a MT4G.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
No you are running stock JK2 kernel with Axura if you didn't flash any custom kernels on top of it.
[Vibrant General] rexrbgh:
Axura, quick, good battery life, and constant updates.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Axura

I love them all but the Axura has the best interface experience as of today. Very nice 2.05axura
[Vibrant General] jnutz:
I think we are fortunate that we can even have this debate. There are so many good 2.2 ROMs on here that it is getting harder and harder to choose a BEST ROM! I admit I haven't tried all the ones listed so I don't know if my vote should count but I have been EXTREMELY happy with Onyx 4.2 so I voted for Onyx.
[Vibrant General] ransz28:
Axura is smooth and sexy....just how I like it. The transitions between menus, super fast response and extremely stable make it the perfect choice!
[Vibrant General] krazie1:
Im Running Axura 2.0.4 and i must say that it is Really Fantastic. The GPS works really fast and is very accurate. Battery life is Amazing. 2.0.5 got released but i already conditioned the battery so i dont want to go throught the whole process again. But i really love this rom and thats coming from a guy who used Obsidian. Out of Obsidian and Axura, Axura wins everywhere: theme, bloatware removed, battery life, gps, and name. =D
[Vibrant General] Mr. Apocalypse:
im personally running Onyx 4.2 w/ ULF Kernel....i used to run the FrankinTwiz Final ROM before i went to Bionix Fusion....then i went to Obsidian to run Froyo with speed and stabilty....now im running Onyx because its TouchWiz free...and with the Universal Lagfix Kernel ported from i9000....its "pick your poison" speed and customization. im sticking with Team Whiskey till they're dead or i find someone better
[Vibrant General] mhseraph:
Im running Obsidian v5 currently until ViralBlack gets done skinning Onyx R5. I use the stock jk2 kernel for battery life, but ULF and the new voodoo are very promising. I like the blacked out theme of Onyx; Team Whiskey's ROMs always run great; and the bloat is removed in Onyx (otherwise I'd just remove it myself with Titanium Backup). I use LauncherPro instead of TW launcher.

A question though: isn't Axura just a theme/mod?
[Vibrant General] drizze99:
I am running Onyx v4.2 with a OC/UV 1.4 Ghz BLN kernel [tester] and using the OCLF 2.2 ext lag fix from RyanZA. I have been using Team Whiskey ROMs since Bionix v1.8 and have not looked back since. I have tried other various ROMs in between out of curiosity but nothing runs as good as a Team Whiskey ROM IMHO. They are the only ROMs/Kernels that go on my phone now.
[Vibrant General] tayatl:
Im running Eugene's ROM. Did you guys flash Auxora and Onyx? Or did u have to use Odin? Im thinking bout trying another ROM after reading this post
[Vibrant General] drizze99:
Yes, you flash the ROMs through ClockworkMod Recovery. Do you have that on your phone? Head over to www.teamwhiskey.com and you can get all of the TW ROMs there!!
[Vibrant General] ludachez:
Cool thread to kind of talk about all the different ROMs. I love what TW does for the community but im not a fan aesthetically. the best 2.2 i has was Anderdroids AOSPish with the ebkanged kernel #2, NASTY battery life. Was feeling Macnutr12 but too samsung-y. Actually havent tried Axura, guess i should...but for those of you who are TW donator's on their board check out Myjollir (probably way off, but its Thor's Hammer) its for donators only and different and really cool STABLE with ULF OC/UV. But mad props to TW for development progression, and to Eugene for progression and the AMAZING kernels
[Vibrant General] lorendroll:
I love Obsidian ROM. Best battery life and smooth even without lagfixes! Onyx is also good but I like stock'ish look of launcher.

Also, Eugen's kernels are promising with his Macnut project! But now the main benefit of TeamWhiskeys ROMs(kernels) is a battery life in a sleep mode (0.2-0.4% per hour vs 2-4% per hour on Macnut R12 without stock kernel) Also you can use Macnut with stock kernel and battery seems to be as good as tw's roms.
[Vibrant General] khtims:
i have changed between several 2.2 ROMs and I landed on Macnut R12 with stock kernel. I have FFC mod so limits my choices a bit. I like Macnut because the flash work around works on it to get me hulu that I cannot get to work on other ROMs. I also like the amount of FFC support it has. It seems that other ROMs that support FFC are buggy with it where Macnut is not. I know from being around the community for some time now that Eugene373 is very good at what he makes and is known for stability. BUT i think that all of the different 2.2 ROMs there are subtle differences that each will like personally better. I don't think one is necessarily better than the rest but that personal preferences make us like one the most. That's the case with me anyway. Good thread!
[Vibrant General] drmosh:
I still run 2.1 simply because of the 3.5mm jack and phone calls...
[Vibrant General] ThC23:
As of now Obsidian 4.2 has my vote.

Fast and smooth.
[Vibrant General] defconoi:
Teamwhiskey is the current leader in Rom development, as well as eugene_373(kernel hacking) By far Onyx and Obsidian roms are the fastest and smoothest. The ULF kernel/recovery in 4.2 was an awesome addition, I hope to see that in Obsidian 5.1. The only gripe I have is that Teamwhiskey doesnt have a github and isnt sharing their source and exact modifications. If they do we all can work together on improving the roms.
[Vibrant General] Viralblack:
You dont github proprietary files that are being modified from non-source locations. Its just not possible, it doesnt get any more direct then just downloading what we made and pulling it apart.

This debate has been had, and doesnt need to again. If you want any tips on working with our roms to further your own feel free to drop in the IRC.
[Vibrant General] SamsungVibrant:
Agree with the aesthetic part.
[Vibrant General] Rick Chase:
great thread!

ive used onyx 4.2 for about 24 hours now and really like it. very clean build, and havent run into any bugs yet.
[Vibrant General] Nightfall983:
Team Whiskey all the way... I'm running Onyx 4.2 with ulf.
[Vibrant General] misquia:
Onyx 4.2 all the way, fixed a lot of my previous issues (i.e android market not working, WiFi and GPS issues, more battery efficient than Fusion 1.2) and a smoother interface in my opinion.
[Vibrant General] LovellKid:
I love the black of TWs ROMs and how smooth they are.. but I still think latest Macnut(with Eugene's latest kernel he posted today) is above the rest. I didn't like the looks of macnut a ton, but samcrows black froyo killed it! Using advanced jpm and this is the happiest I've been on my vibrant.

Lovellkid
[Vibrant General] soloecho7:
Im a team whiskey fan I started with bionix 1.3 and have ran pretty much every version then moved to obsidian v1 had no probs I am now on v3 still without any issues so obviously my vote is for team whiskey
[Vibrant General] pathcafe:
I'm also a team whiskey fan but had to try axura. I've stuck with master and think 2.0.5 is extremely smooth. I love onyx and will, no doubt, find my way back to tw in the future. Too many developers is a good problem to have.
[Vibrant General] tayatl:
Yea I have it, thanks
[Vibrant General] xaymaca:
i'll have to go with Axura, battery life on this baby was a winner for me :cool:
[Vibrant General] jaxminzsky:
Axura 2.5 is very fast and sexy, i miss a little bit more color, but is ok. The battery and gps work better in my phone

But i must to make a special mention to team whiskey (obsidian/onyx), they make stable and powerful rom. Both are rock!
[Vibrant General] mainevent3405:
+1 on Axura
[Vibrant General] mainevent3405:
Had Obsidian first. Switched to Axura 2.04 and now 2.05. Love it! Animations are crazy wicked and putting Blackfroyo on top of it is simply amazing!
[Vibrant General] BruceElliott:
Obsidian, After About Five More Revs...

(That would be about the same number of revs required to finish Bionix...)

I am not a bleeding edge person when it comes to an important work tool like my phone. I highly respect those who are, though.
[Vibrant General] DangerousDave:
Although I really like the Team Whiskey ROMs and can't say enough good about the work they do, I have to say I prefer the overall look and feel of Axura 2.0.5.

It is very nice to have these choices.
[Vibrant General] nearblack:
I'm a big of Macnut. The major complaint people have had about it is the battery life, and that is entirely a kernel issue. After flashing one of his newer kernels, the battery life is as good as the rest.

There are just some things I love about Macnut. All the features, with the I9000 looks. Very beautiful, fast, and stable ROM. Love it. :D
[Vibrant General] serban954:
+2 on Axura. This is by far the best ROM out. Fast, stable, and GREAT battery life. Thanks Master.;)
[Vibrant General] ndwgs:
^^

I like how the OP said "Which one is your favorite custom 2.2 ROM and why?"

And majority of users has posted what ROM and how they "love" or "how amazing" it is...

We know all devs are amazing, the OP asked, "Why?"

Me?

I was on Fusion with Core. Why not now? No reason, i'd go back in a heartbeat... but, i wanted to try the 2.2 ROMS...

Which ROM's? Well, i tried the leaked original, liked it, but buggy. So I tried on some of Eugene's and Master's, but alas, my biggest pet peeve is that it's not the kind i'm looking for. I was a Nexus user before, LOVED IT. I started to read up on Anderdroid's AOSPish, so I tried it. Very N1 like phone. Stuck with it.

BUT, my only pick with it is I don't like the fact it force closes on you after you make a phone call. Also, no updates, and RyanZa's OCLF 2.2 isn't doing much good. I'm better off stock AOSPish. Tons more of minuscule bugs that i forgoten to list.

But, seeing i'm always on the road, and I'm on vacation, a LONG awaited vacation, I just stayed on this driver for the mean time. I'll probably go back to Obsidian since TW recently released V5. Hopefully, before i make the switch back, TW will release a newer version of Obsidian.

There's my $0.01 (not enough for $0.02, since i didn't write a novel detailing WHY i like the ROM i'm using).

Back to my vacation!
[Vibrant General] UnseenMaster:
I'm with you. I love Macnut but the battery life was killing me. I switched to Obsidian. Both are great ROM's but I do still prefer R12. Which Kernel did you end up flashing?
[Vibrant General] omar790732:
How to I get thst rom and univerdal lagfix?
[Vibrant General] bbm21:
im on r12 (soon r13) i got his newest kernel in his kernel thread at his site b_1120 i think it is plus the blackfroyo theme. i get great battery life, just as good as i did on TW's froyo and bionix roms i recently switched over, bionix 1 was the first rom i ever flashed and i switched to macnut r12 and i love it the most
[Vibrant General] golferdroid:
I would say Project Elite. Its can be overclocked to 1ghz, it also a battery saver somehow, and its 2.2.1. Why not love it?
[Vibrant General] qreffie:
Macnut all the way, which is weird since I never touched one of Eugene's roms in the 2.1 days. I stayed stock + root for the longest time then got some Bionix. I flashed Eugene's first recovery flashable froyo rom because I didn't care about losing GPS since I already had another GPS unit left over from my old job. I got used to his builds and the overall feel of his roms which were all pretty snappy. After the JK2 leak I did try a TW rom a few times but it just didn't feel right, plus I had a super hard time getting hulu to work on it. I didn't venture to ASOP or Axura because I actually like touch wiz a little and I could use a break from vanilla android for a while. So yeah, that's why I'm still flashing the Macnut series.
[Vibrant General] ndwgs:
Doesn't it that Macnut not as stable as Axura?

GPS is a gimme... I gave up on that, i just want them to fix it somehow...
[Vibrant General] Fizzikill:
Hi Guys I'm using Axura final and reckon that's pretty damn awesome, 1 question i have is do you know if any of the 2.2 roms actually have video calling? I noticed it's not on Axura unless I'm looking in the wrong place.
