Question [Q] Customizing Evo Shift for friend

Hello, I recently installed Fasty 2.5 on my Captivate using odin and rooted it using super one click. A friend of mine wants to know if i could install a custom rom on his EVO shift 4g.

Can someone please point me in the right direction.

I would like to find a rom that saves battery and is faster than the stock rom for EVO shift 4g.

Also I would like to know if I can use Super One Click to root my friend's evo permanently.

Do I install the custom rom using odin? Or is odin a captivate only program?

Thank you for helping me. I am a little stuck and don't want to ruin his phone!

Also, I need a stock rom for the evo shift incase I screw up and need to go back to stock. USB jigs work for Evo shift's right? Thank you. Hope this all made sense

No you can't use Super One Click to Perm root your friends EVO Shift. First question is what is it currently on 2.2 , or 2.3 ? The methods for Perm Root vary for each. If the phone is currently on 2.3 you can use the method on THIS thread or THIS thread. If it's on 2.2 you can use the Win32 Tool]GUI Root with Check and Recovery or follow the instructions HERE . As for Roms there are many choices, all a matter of preferance. You could try MikShifted G v1.6 or Supreme Sense v5 , both have great battery life. Also, here is the 2.2 RUU back to stock unrooted 2.2. Hope that answers your questions

Thank you so much! this was very helpful. I'd give you a million thanks if I could XD I'm not sure if my friend is on 2.2 or 2.3 yet that is why I left that out of the question. Thank you for all the links!
