best ROM for Sprint TP on VZ service??

I have had been running a Sprint TP on Verizon service for a few months now & it's awesome:



I am running the leaked VZ ROM & everything works perfectly. I did a hard reset way back when it was new & it messed up my QPST setting & messed up my data connection so I have not really wanted to do that again.

Since the thing works perfectly, I really have no reason whatever to flash to a new ROM but I'm bored & feel like tweaking it so I'm getting the "flash urge"

When I had my Titan's I flashed them constantly to different ROM's & then restored a working BU with SPB Backup. I am now considering doing the same thing to the TP, but the difference is I didn't have to worry about QPST settings etc in the Titan.

My question is about the the different options available ROM wise & I am more worried about totally messing up the system than I am in various ROM features at this point. Since I am not flashing constantly like in the Titan days, I haven't really kept up on the current ROM's.

I am looking for advice on what ROM to try, & I am not really concerned that ROM A is a hair faster than ROM B etc. I am really wondering what you guys would recommend as a stable ROM that won't trash my system & cause me to redo two months of customizations (although I accept that that is always a possibility)

Re: best ROM for Sprint TP on VZ service??

Last time I asked about ROM preference, my thread got closed, but I'll try to help.

I'm running Y4J's 4.0 ROM. Personally, its my favorite. However, the developer disappeared 2 months ago, so I can't guarantee future updates. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=43229

There's also calkulin's kitchen, which has some nice options:http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=50857

I've heard good things from juggalo_x's kitchen as well: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=46616

Re: best ROM for Sprint TP on VZ service??

Yup here we go again.... 10 threads this week on this same subject.

To show that I am truly unbiased and just want thes little to no real value threads to go away I wont even say a damn word about my ROM! I wont.... I wont... I swear I wont.. I swear!!!!!

I lied!

Check out my sig block!

But man, dont post a thread like this.... Ever / see here of the term self destrcution? How about outdated as soon as you get the info? Like they say on "Fark" This is sure to end well!

Getting the gas flowing.... lighter is in hand.... Im not gonna do it people... Im playing nice.... Think before you post to my response... Im being nice, I really am!!!!!

This is all I was asking for. I was not trying to start another "which ROM is best" thread, I laughed through all 40 or whatever pages of the last one....

I simply wanted some advice on which one was most likely to be compatible with my system. I don't care if it's the slowest ROM available, the one I'm running is plenty fast now.

Re: best ROM for Sprint TP on VZ service??

John, assuming thread is not closed (...), please post your results and experiences. I'm in the exact same boat as you ROM-wise (Sprint TP, Verizon stock ROM, VZW service, no problems, used to flash my Titan at least weekly, etc...). I haven't yet taken the leap to flash from the stock VZW rom for the exact same reasons you mention (although I have not ever hard reset--still running fine since doing the VZW conversion last year, but getting the itch..). thanks

Re: best ROM for Sprint TP on VZ service??

In an attempt to stay on topic for this thread here is my take since I am using a sprint TP on verizon like you.
First thing first, don't bother using scrolsers rom on your device, it will give you alot of headaches and reset all your data settings and possibly make your GPS unusable. (this is on a verizionized sprint TP, im sure it works nice and dandy on a verizon device)

I would use one of GC's roms or use the rom I am currently using from drellisdee. I have had the most luck with those 2 roms on my device, without any annoying issues after installing them.
