There is no best rom bcuz everybodies phone acts differently on different roms. But for arguments sake I would say legendary... fast, snappy, and I haven't had one bug to date.

No its kind of a green on blue theme its a little odd but if you don't like it you can always just flash a theme that you do like. Recommend shake and bake if your a blue theme guy.

Is there any themes that are orange???????

what about best kernel?????

Depends what you like. I would say cm7, since it has the newest bleeding edge features.
However, you may care more about looks, then you might go with someone else's such as legendary of another themed rom.

THE BEST ROM is the one you feel is the best. everyone has their own preferences, and as stated above, everyone's phone acts differently to a single rom.

I'm telling you... Imfamous 2.7.1 is the way to go. the masters behind that come out with updates very very frequently and are always on the spot with them. & kernel is damn good. i highly suggest.

Both are very good. However with infamous i hate the transparent app drawer.if theres a way to fix that i will go back to that

Flash Darkside v7 it keeps most of touchwiz and gives you better battery life along with many awesome extras.

Y wud anyone use anything but aokpM6 atm, most likely the most stable. Till cm9 comes then they will prolly be tied. And then helllllllooooooo jelly bean!

....ahh here we go again with "that" question...the one you will neva eva eva get a straight answer to....my advice?.....READ, READ, READ, read, read, and read some more and when you feel comfortable make a choice...try it out...if you are not happy...try another...and so on and so forth...
I believe they are all great ROMs but there are some YOUR phone is gonna like more than others...that's the best answer I could give you. Luck homie.

That to me is an unaswerable question. Its like asking what undys should I wear today to your buddies. Not really a question anyone but yourself could answer lol.
Ok im teasing don't hate me lol. I guess what I mean to say is what ever rom feels that meets your needs.
I have flashed over 5 roms in the last 3 weeks and I finally found one that fits me. DS Rev.7.
I suggest to flash a few and see which one is your favorite. Or just keep flashing til you burn something out lol.
Hope this helps

I so agree with you bro.... the devs are just doing all of this for free. Which ever any of us use is just icing on their cake. To them it just means that their knowledge has paid off.
Too many choices out there to make one single decision. Carry 1-2-3-8 roms in ur card. Choose a diff one everyday of the week. And one day it will make its mark that the one your using will meet all your needs. Until then........ PLEASE!!!!! Read instructions and follow devs install guides. Their there for a reason. Don't be one of the many that post treads about how they didn't research and ended up with a paperweight.
Thats my .02¢
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

I don't mean to sound politically incorrect here. But I don't think devs do this for us at all. If I had the talents to dev my main reason for developing would be my own personal gains in being able to improve the experience with that shiny new device I've been wanting. Then after I would upload my work for anyone else if they wish. Hopefully cash in some sweet donations if my work is THAT good. But I will never ever believe that devs do it "for us". All devs are hackers. And hackers all hack for the same reasons. Personal gain and attention. Just my 2 cents.

There are a whole bunch of cm-like roms, and I would like to go to one! Which one works for you and why?

The latest cm10 nightly or the latest aokp nightly by Casper

And I'm on Hellfire JB which is feeling stable and great to me. I remove some "bloat" (in my eyes it is) and I'm happy with it... what you need to do is test them all out for about a 2-3 days to test battery and then switch to a new one to see what it feels like and to test battery again. Over and over until you find what you like. Me personally I like AOKP but trying out new things while everything is moving so fast for these roms. Once you flash official CM10 a new AOKP is out and so on so its hard to base these roms and say which is best. Try them out and you will find what works best for you. Also this thread is frowned upon. Lol.

Just inherited an sph-d710 just cuz...

My question is... which rom is best on this device? Maybe asking for too much but anything close to s3 and note 2 like rom would be sweet. I have an i777 on shostock3 and that rom is beast.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2

You inherited a damn good phone lol. The recently released jellybean leaks like FK23, FL04, and FL16 offer a close experience to that of the Galaxy S3. The home screen and notification bars are nearly the same and many features are carried over to our device as well. You have some interesting motion features to try out as well.

Honestly you can't go wrong with any. All the devs put a lot of hard work into their roms, and it shows. My personal favorite for ics is blu Kuban. As of right now I am running fk23, and have been since it's release.

Congrats on getting this phone:thumbup:
Now as far as best ROMs. There is no such thing as a "best" ROM. Every user has its own preference based on whether he is a power user or a casual user, whether he is into themed ROMs or ROMs with stock feel, etc.
So you are just going to have to look in dev forums, read user posts, read OPs and then decide.
I can say so and so ROM is better but thats for my taste. You are not me. And some devs may not feel good that I left out their ROM.
So take this advise and happy flashing!

I didn't build it so don thank me.

0xD34D is the creator of the ROM. He also built MIUI for us back in the days of 4.1.2.

Before people grab this and start running off with it and running their mouths about bugs there are a few things that should be realized.
1. 0xD34D has posted on XDA before and there is no reason to think he won't this time around.
2. This seems to be a sort of alpha or beta based on the build number.
3. If you need stability don't flash random roms without realizing things like alpha, nightly, milestone, etc. Stick to [STABLE] roms.
Carry on and have a nice day... :good:

So far, so good. Had a little glitch with the theme manager, though. It defaulted to Jellybean colors but I prefer those anyways. Definitely let it settle before customizing. I flashed the newest Note radio on top of it and flashed the latest gapps. Everything is running smoothly. Great battery life so far and very little lag. I'm running the latest nightly btw.

If you read their website you would know that's exactly what they did. However, they dug into the System and theme manager and mad it reach a lot more of the UI.
