I’ve finally upgraded my device and settled on the flagship HTC One (for me on Sprint). And with any new devices begins the search for the perfect ROM. ROM selection is always a personal choice, so your mileage may vary on each of these, but I wanted to share what I’ve been playing with lately. […]
Device Update – New ROMs Are Fun!
I’ve been a super huge fan of CyanogenMod for several years now. I’ve used it on all my devices. From my HTC Hero CDMA to my current Galaxy Nexus (Sprint) aka the toroplus. I’ve really grown to love the little tweaks and add ons that make the custom ROM just shine. The problem is, however, […]
Archos Update – the struggle continues
A week or so ago Archos release the next firmware update for the Gen 8 series of Android based tablets. I’ve been struggling for a solid firmware since the update from 2.1.8 (which was super solid). The latest version does have some neat feature additions (good for you Archos, still adding to the device) but […]
Archos 2.3.81 Firmware – Two Days Late and a Dollar Short
I spent part of Saturday and Sunday playing around with root for my Archos 70 Internet Tablet. This little device has taken good care of me for a while. My only real issue was the last firmware update really messed some stuff up. Namely, a battery percentage issue (never hit 100% and seemed to drop […]

Starting From Scratch
I love playing with Android ROMs. There are so many great developers and ways to tweak your system. About once a month or so I like to wipe everything and start fresh. This is the process I follow to do this. This process is HTC Evo 4G specific but that doesn’t mean it won’t work […]
New ROMs are Fun
I’m not one to wait around for the stable ROMs. No, I like to live life on the edge. So the new RC from Cyanogenmod was right up my ally. Based on Android 2.3.4, Cyanogenmod is a fully loaded (not bloated) custom ROM for a large list of phones. My HTC Evo 4G has been […]
BlackMod and all the Rooted Goodness that is Android [Archive]
I’ve really, really gotten to love the new ROMs from #teamdouche coming out right now. They’re released via Cyanogen on http://www.cyanogenmod.com. I played around with the nightlies for the better part of August and September, but recently have settled on a gem of a workup from jaybob413. You see, jaybob413 has taken the pure bliss […]
