Guest madmerlin Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Hey guys, sorry for posting but i have been looking and i cannot find a consensual agreement or definition of the best custom rom currently for the Advent Vega. Currently i have got Pauls r8 with all bells and whistles from online kitchen, however its been a while since this was released and i know that other updated roms have been released since and are presumably better. Thus: What is the best custom rom to put on a Vega right now? Please consider roms not just from MoDaCo crew :D Also would there be any complications with purchased apps and stored app content such as game scores / data or will they be ok if put on the sd card?

Guest peter a Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 finally android market remembers ( so longer as you use the same account ) all purchased items so you can re install them if you need to good luck With me it knows the difference between my phone and my vega. But even if you change roms it still knows it`s the same vega. So I can`t install any purchased apps on my phone , which I purchased on the vega. But like I said , every time I tested a new rom out it`s worked out it`s the same machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest shrubbery Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 corvus rom is the best rom nowwwww I personally prefer Fuji TNT Lite which is based on Corvus's ROM but has a nicer notification bar in my opinion. It is so subjective though that you are better installing them all one by one and choosing the one that suites you best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest warriorscot Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Best is probably corvus right now. Really its probably what the Modaco would be at if Paul kept at it past R8. Not hugely different when compared to the R8 with the MCK or Buzz kernel but has a few nice touches to compensate. The Fuji rom doesn't seem different enough to corvus or buzz to me to be worth trying but maybe someone can convince me. Once Cyanogen has some more of the bugs worked out I am looking forward to giving that a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reference your problem installing purchased apps on different handsets/tablets. I took a while to work this out. Have had a HTC desire since last april, my primary email account on that is (fictional for demonstration purposes) [email protected]. I then also set up a secondary account with gmail [email protected] in order to purchase apps with google checkout. When I bought my vega at xmas time I thought I would be clever and install the [email protected] account as my primary account on the vega thinking because it was the account I bought the apps with that I would then be able to use the apps on my vega that I had purchased on the desire - wrong! Didnt work. And the reason being that when you buy an app it is linked to the PRIMARY address on the device, in my case [email protected]. Once I reset my accounts and made [email protected] my primary account (can only do this by resetting the device :D ) it worked as intended and I have all the paid for apps on both handsets. Hope this helps you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
