Guest Subliminal Aura Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Hi Chaps, I'm running an OMC with the stock firmware from Orange... I was wondering if one you kind souls would give me a headstart. Couple of questions 1 - What's the most stable ROM - CM9 looks unstable so I'll probably be looking at a CM7 2- Flashing procedure in a very brief nutshell eg Step 1 - Unlock (mandatory y/n) Step 2 - Superboot - root access (I would assume this is mandatory ;) ) Step 3 - Install ClockworkMod Recovery (I would assume this is mandatory ;) ) Step 4 - Flash radios ? Step 5 - Flash CMn as per normal. Am I on the right track ? Cheers Edited February 1, 2012 by Subliminal Aura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frankish Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Cm7 is perfectly stable and pretty minimal a great base to start on. You only need to unlock if you plan on using something other than an orange sim card. You do need to install clockworkmod recovery. Then just wipe and flash a rom.

Thanks mate, that implies that I'll need to root it also :) Still a little confused as to which CM7 to go for... There seem to be a few different threads here and no official support from CM for this device. Just point me to 1 ROM and I'll be happy. Sorry for my noobness ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frankish Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Tilals thread. His version is the closest to official. The rest have been themed or tweaked etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) This build is more up to date and is still supported: I am using this rom myself....not had a single problem with it! Edited February 1, 2012 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eruditionfish Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 From what I've gathered, it seems the most popular stable ROMs are CM7 / Ice Armor and Atomic. Could someone help clarify what the main differences between the two are? The only comparisons I can find are several versions old... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its themed and with added apps etc isn't it though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Its themed and with added apps etc isn't it though? The only theming is Ice armor theme,which is theme Chooser,so easy to switch. And the only other things I can think of are custom animations(easy to disable) and stock android bootanimation says ice armor...which I don't see now because I use my own choice of bootanimation. It is a rom worth checking out,very stable. My number 1 choice was Atomic,but unless the music skipping is fixed I cannot use atomic as I listen to music alot.

Guest H3ROS Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Its themed and with added apps etc isn't it though? I asked tilal before and he's said this. It's pretty much the same but much more up to date. CM settings has been improved and overall it is faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tilal6991 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Its is themed but that can be removed. Apart from that its pretty identical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
