It seems like there's a lot of MTD ROMs coming out, so I figured I'd start a thread to keep track of all the MTD-goodness in one place. If there's questions about what MTD is exactly, I refer you to this thread from XDA: [INFO]What is EpicMTD, and what you need to know. - xda-developers as well as QBKing77's excellent video: [YT]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds9rwAoI2IQ[/YT]Also, I should mention that converting to MTD/YAFFS2 means you will need to Odin back to EC05 using this thread before you can install any of the current BML (EXT4 or RFS) ROMs. Luckily, it seems like there'll be more MTD ROMs coming out so this is becoming less of a draw-back.
K, now that's out of the way, here's the list so far. Current as of 1/4/12 night.
ROMs:
***********************
ROM name: CM7.2.0 RC0
Developer: UberPinguin
Link: [ROM] EpicMTD CM 7.2.0 RC0
Last update: Nightlies released, well, um, every night Though, since the devs are working on CM9, they may be more like weeklies than nightlies. If stability is important to you, stick to the RC.
-- WIMAX!!!
***********************
ROM name: MIUI
Developer: xboxfanj
Link: [ACS] [MTD] [YAFFS2] MIUI 1.12.23 RC 0.5
Last update: 1/4/12
-- Similar to iOS (at least, according to Wikipedia).
***********************
ROM name: Stock-ish MTD
Developer: Tortel1210
Link: [EI22] Stock-ish MTD Build
Last update:12/21/11
-- Pretty much your stock GB experience minus the bloatware and CiQ.

Last update: 12/24/11

Last update: 12/29/11

***********************
Name: SleeperROM
Developer: SenseiSimple
Link: [ROM][CWM][EI22] SleeperROM - Sport tuned Stock - MTD/ BML(RFS/EXT4)
Last update: 1/4/12
-- Stock looks. All performance. MTD release is sort of a beta, so there may be issues with it.
***********************
To switch between any of these ROMS, you won't need to Odin. If moving from a CM ROM (CM7 and MIUI) to a TW ROM, you have to wipe data before flashing.
Kernels:
***********************
Name: CM7 Kernel
Developer: UberPinguin
Link: Direct d/l link
Last update: 12/24/11
-- Stock CM7 kernel
***********************
Name: IAP Samurai
Developer: earthbound
Link: [Kernel]BML/MTD/CM7 EI22 Samurai OC/UV RONIN <-[OFFICIAL] BUSHIDO3 for WiMax fix
Last update: 1/4/12
-- Supports OC/UV, Voodoo Color and Sound, kexec and increased stability from previous release.
***********************
Name: Stock-ish MTD
Developer: Tortel1210
Link: [EI22] Stock-ish MTD Build
Last update: 12/21/11
-- V3 Kernel link in OP. Slightly undervolted with some tweaks for speed.
***********************
Name: EpicMTD-TWKernel-v1.0
Developer: zman0900
Link: [KERNEL][MTD][EI22]EpicMTD-TWKernel-v1.0[GPL]
Last update: 12/27/11
-- Stock kernel with few modifications. Has kexec (still untested) which allows for dual-booting. Stable and good building block for devs.
***********************
Name: CleanGB kernel
Developer: toadlife
Link: [ROM] [EI22] [CWM5] [MTD] CleanGB-MTD
Last update: 12/29/11
-- Link to kernel in OP. Stable, contains a WIFI patch that fixes spontaneous reboots. No Voodoo Sound/Color.
***********************
Name: Shadowkernel
Developer: bbelos
Link: [Kernel][EI22][BML][MTD][CM7 w/ WiMAX] Shadow-v1.0.4+ / VoodooColor, OC/UV
Last update: 1/4/12
-- CM7 and MIUI version with Voodoo color, OC/UV, video recording, no voodoo sound for now, supports WIMAX. TW version with Voodoo sound.
***********************
Themes:
Any EI22 theme will work on an MTD ROM, but to flash them, you need to boot into CWM, mount /system (under "Mounts and Storage" menu), flash the theme, unmount /system and reboot. And, if you're on CM7, there's a HUGE selection of themes that can be downloaded from the market (thanks to codest3r for reminding me to put this in).
Happy flashing!
