A few questions about rooting / ROMs on my new LTE coming from EVO 4G - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had my EVO 4G rooted and flashed ROM's. I just picked up the LTEvo. I know that it can be rooted very easily.
I suppose the same ROM's that are available for the 4G can be flashed on the LTE? Or are there specific ROM's for the LTE?
Can anyone recommend a ROM for the LTE that doesn't take away anything from the phone? Last several ROM's I used always had some kind of bug where the voicemail app didn't work or MMS didn't work, etc... I would like the hotspot feature though. Do I have to flash a ROM to take advantage of that or can I just root?
Thanks for the help is advance

First, wrong place to ask this! You should be asking about what ROM is best blah blah blah for the LTE in the EVO LTE area
Second, you can't flash an EVO 4G ROM on the EVO LTE....is not going to work no matter how much you want it to
BUT I did hear some good things about the Mean ROM.......alright I'm gonna go now!
GOOD LUCK!!!

I also moved from the 4G to the 4G LTE. I have flashed the ViperROM and the battery power has been outstanding (I am charging the phone every other day now).

Question for everyone

Well here is the situation. My wife has a moment and she is stuck on one g where we have 3g. I have the evo and I am fine. I thought that it was because the moment sucks. But then I was talking to some friends of mine one with another moment and one with an evo and there all stuck on 1g. I forced evdo only and it will start but they can only download from market nothing else works no mms or youtube. So I switch back to mixed mode and it stays on 1g. I'm at a lose we have tried sprint and like normal there not much help. I can provide specs if anyone has ideas. I'm just at a lose.

You're asking about wierdness on a Samsung Moment in the Evo forum? You may want to post it your question in the Moment forums instead.
did you update your profile and PRL?
are you on the 60669 PRL?
-aside from that, like the sarcastic asshat above me said, you would probably have better luck in the moment forum..
No I'm posting in the evo forums because there is an evo with the same problem.
The evo is more of the issue at the moment.

Sorry, my bad - missed the part of your post where you mentioned that there was an EVO having the same issue. But nebenezer's advice seems to be on point. Should help you pick up the "right" towers and whatnot.

Huh, that sucks.. How long ago did he update? Has this been a constant problem?
All I can guess a this point is you guys are victims of the horrible 3G reception I experience intermittently.
I usually get 1.2-1.7 or so Mbps down.. today I've been doing good to break 100k!!! Horrible. Although I haven't switched to the 1x network at all, but I might as well have at these speeds.
I would suggest (as I have to a few others today, lol) call sprint and have them reprovision your data service from their end. And don't bother with out-sourced tech support, they are usually nice but also usually ignorant. If you don't get a hold of someone that knows whats up then call retentions, they'll get you in touch with the right team.

[Q] Rooting is cool, But not for me...

Rooting my HTC EVO 4G was cool, but it isnt for me at all. I dont have any service anywhere, my wifi sucks, when im in a 4G area, i dont get any 4G coverage. I drop the majority of my calls like my service is with AT&T or something, and overrall, this s**t sucks. Can somebody give me step by step instructions on how to UNROOT my phone and get it back to NORMAL..?

Rooting literally doesnt effect any of that... maybe you should check your rom bro.

Well none of that should be going on, something else has got to be causing issues. The majority of Evo roms are very stable, in my experiences. What rom are you having trouble with?
To answer your question, the easiest way to unroot is to download and flash the unrevoked s on tool (only if you've ever used unrevoked forever, which most likely you have). That'll turn S on in the bootloader. After that, download an RUU from here on XDA, and run the RUU from your computer. That will flash you back to stock, unrooted.

Nothing you've described should be related to rooting, unless you've flashed something that isn't playing nicely. You are of course welcome to go back to stock, but maybe post what you've flashed and what you were hoping to accomplish by rooting. We may be able to give you some guidance.

What bk said. Believe me, rooting and customizing it makes it perform better, not worse.

Rooting your phone shouldn't have any affect on your phone that way unless you installed or horrid ROM. Check the modem you downloaded with your ROM, maybe you could use a better modem?
Why did you post two nearly identical threads? One would've been enough to obtain an answer.
But then again, so would the search button.

[Q] Flash Fascinate Rom

This might sound like a stupid/noobie question, but is it possible to flash a Fascinate rom onto the Epic 4g without catastrophic nuclear disaster? I just thought, given that they are the same family of Galaxy S and are both CDMA, that it might be possible. Would the keyboard still work?
I am asking because i am trying to get my Epic to work on Verizon. Is there anything like the xv6900s where i can cook different carriers settings into roms?
Thanks in advance!

No, do not do this! Always make sure the rom you flash is compatible with the Epic. No other phone's roms will work on our phone.
I also do not think our phones are capable of working on verizon.
Flashing a Rom not for your phone is a great way to wind up with a technologically advanced paperweight.
Wow I wish we could do this. No don't flash any other rom to the epic other than want is on this forum

No, hell no, jesus christ DON'T DO IT!
If you want your Epic on a different network, that's not too difficult. Look around the web, there are guides.

Got an Epic 4G Touch Yesterday ...

If you guys need any specific info out of it for dev purposes I'll give whatever I can ..
can you provide any other info besides dev related. How big does it feel compared to a Evo 4G, How thin does the phone really feel.
Also how did you get it 3 days early.
i work for sprint ... so I got hooked up. phone is very thin and lightweight, EVO 4G is a clunker compared to this thing ..
I just wanna keep this thread on topic so it isn't moved ... bc I am very interested in getting root asap ... so any numbers ... SW versions , kernels or whatever just let me know

Thanks. Guess that means no 800MHz SMR support then. Can anyone confirm?
have you tried any rooting methods for the international versions yet?

Or even the epic one click? Don't know if it works, but it works on the GB epic releases, so don't know what they changed.

[Q] Stock rom for Virgin Mobile's SPH-D710 US

I have been looking for a stock rom for Virgin Mobile's Epic 4G touch (S2) US and every link I find is either Sprint or has been taken down. If anyone has one or know where to get it that would be amazing.

Wrong phone section I guess? For your phone is this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/epic-4g-touch
Try ask people from there.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
