I'm looking for an ICS ROM which doesn't mess with my battery because of wifi drivers, half of my ram, can't record video and can't run GTA3 for more than eight seconds (...*cough*CM9*cough*...)
I'm looking for something that can play Shadowgun with Xperia controls, AOSP themed, runs fast, deodexed, isn't a ram or battery hog, and is fast.
Can't choose between Darkforest ICS, ICS++ and many others so I'm asking, what would be the best ROM for gaming and speed?

Lol me too. Im in DarkForest now, but will try ICS++ later this day. Personally i don't have a problem with Darkforest as my problem is in ICS Beta itself that can see in every ICS based ROM, atleast someone said that to me.
But ICS++ looks promising as i really dig the AOSP look and everything.

But does Darkforest play HD games with Xperia controls as expected? Also, what is this *problem* you are talking about?

Wait for official ICS
All the current ICS roms have issues in one way or another and don't work as well as stock gingerbread.

If you want to play games, bug free, stick with GB for now

Hello guys i have been trying a few ICS roms now but i still wondering how i can get the most stable ics experience.
The best ive got now is like 2 phone crashes a day. I am useing the Krabappel rom (KA)
Id like to have ics for the touchpad functinality in fpse.
Oh another question, is it possible to get the xperia play gamepad working with onlive on ice cream sandwich? It worked perfect on gingerbread.
Thanks for your time.
May I ask why you want ICS? Gingerbread is perfect, why upgrade to a buggy beta? Compatibility sucks on ICS.
If you care about your games, the best thing to do is stay on gb. The only stable ics roms are cm9 based with no touchpads working. Some games actually detect that you have an xperia play and show you the control schemes but the touchpads won't work.

He didn't ask about the compatibility, he asked for the most stable ics rom.
Besides, fpse will only work with ICS beta released by sony. Only ics beta has different touchpads implementation. But the beta is very slow, laggy and pissing off.

NXT v1.2 with DooMkernel. I honestly can't speak highly enough of it. If you choose it I suggest you flash the accompanying add-ons as well. Contains some kind of new Timescape layout that looks brilliant
First page of the dev section if you wanna look for it

FXP125 works much better than AokPlay for me
Aokplay is amazing, especially now with the touchpad fix. However some games don't work at all.
Try Darkforest ICS. I tried almost all of the ROMs in the past few days, and that worked the most smoothly. Anyway Gingerbread still works better, so now I'm on Gin2ICS 1.7.7. Sadly the touchpads doesn't work properly in Order and Chaos with any of the ICS ROMs.
I had supercharged 100 % and I was playing angry birds Rio and red bull x fighters. But suddenly, It had been stopped when I done to next level whether I got scored. I had finished this level and when I continued to next level unfortunately it had stopped and lagged like jammed. What solution to resolve full working gaming on my arc ICS ?

Currently there are many gaming issues on ICS ..if you are a hardcore gamer ,i suggest u should roll back to GB ...I can't play The Amazing Spider Man on ICS ,it crashes every 2min.when i play in GB it runs smooth and no crash...
Think for a second, maybe the game has a problem with levels - stages (especially small 3d games)
but its true ICS is not good for gaming, especially in smoothness and performance, im currently on ICS 4.0.4 (arconium ICS) and i get lag with KTG anzu kernel v1.41
and im currently thinking of going back to GB

the Amazing Spiderman works well on my Arc stock ics 4.0.4 . Not crash or force close. Only small lags.
I also played Backstab but It didn't smooth, What should I do ?

Sell your Phone and get an iPhone. As someone who has ROM in the development section I find it baffling why you feel the need to start so many threads on so many subjects.

It's not a secret is it that gaming on ICS is quite poor, it's no secret because there have been a few threads in regards to the issue, non of which has offered a solution, so to start yet another thread asking how to improve gaming on ICS is, well, I'll refrain from being rude.
Hi all, what is the best ice rom for gaming?tried marks rom very sluggish.gamer4/Mui Australia/express don't try..tried some jb slimbean very good but no auto brightness touchpads weird problem with headsets.so decided to try nxt2jb but no new adreno drivers not very good performance.so I think ics is the best choice what you think is the best?thanks

the best for gaming is gb.... ics is still slower .... if you want feature from ics or jb and the performance from gb use the next updated of turbo-kernel... you can boot the both or maybe the three of one

i know that,but still what is the best ICS?(there is some games that already works only on ICS like Shadowgun DeadZone) so its a metter of time and you will not play good new games on GB.
marphytons ics rom is the best for gaming.

Do you have the cdma version or gsm. If you have gsm Id recommend aurora play or gin2jellybean. They are both gb and have everything working. (Ginger bread is the only version with everything working). If you have cdma then stock would be the best and just theme it using one of attacks themes. There are plenty ics and jb roms but games don't run smooth on them so id recommend you to stay on gb.

gingerbread roms: aurora play/gin2jellybean / ICS: True Ancestor / Hybrid / with the ICS true ancestor im on gsm everything is working fine games are smooth battery life is good. benchmark score of 6740

yes im perfectly sure, i have customized this rom used it as a based applied, tweaked build prob, custom libs, and many more so far im getting 6000 on every test i run. and of course the battery life last me a long time, long enough to have a pokemon leveled up to 99 ahahahaha
still confused i dont know which ics rom has everything working dont wanna keep flashing i like games and at the same time need good battery life
I havnt tried atomic gb but i think its one of the best roms
Dixperia 2 is a little bit laggy and only the theme is customized. Its not good for gaming
gin2jellyabean is the best rom
Hi guys! I ordered my SGA 2 today and it probably comes with GB, so i was wondering should i update it to JB? Some say JB lags in SGA 2 and others say its better with JB. Could u tell me ur experience with GB and JB in SGA 2? Question is: Should I?

In my opinion jb is in many ways better than gb, besides the battery life. however I've found the stock roms to be laggy but when you install one of the costum jelly bean roms that problem is out of the way too. So I suggest u upgrade to jelly bean, I think it's really worth it! p.s. next time post your question in Q and A for ace 2 thread, it's there for a reason!
If JB only CM.
So basically you read on our forums that for some people JB lags, for some not, and then decided to open new thread to read the same things once again hoping that maybe now everything magically works fine for everyone? Both sections are full with opinions and threads on every available release of JB, we have also Q and A section to ask such questions there.
Android lags every time. I have LG with Quad Core Tegra 3 and I see lag. Same with any other device. In other case, Lumia 720 is running flawlessly. Why? Not open source and full of ****. In any case, I advise to install ME7 Android 4.1 to Ace II. Better than GB.

CM is buggy and luggy)))
I use JB since the first release and I never again had a thought to revert back to GB. Current JB roms are quite stable, so there's no need to stick with GB. Just don't use CM or any other rom which is in alpha stage. Wait for stable release and you'll be okay. And to answer your question - Yes, you should upgrade to JB.
I ´m using JB XE7 since 10 days and it´s working fine ! I update from GB straight via odin and got 624MB memory. For me, i won´t go back to GB!
JB Looks a bit too boring to me... Yes it has better battery use capabilities and 'new' features but for me... ICS is my personal pick. But I would choose GB over JB any day

Look? Do you mean the theme?
If yes, flash cyanogenmod and get thousand of themes.

Cyanogenmod 10 Unofficial by dh.Harald is very good. There are a few Bugs, but if they are no Problem for you, try it.
GB over JB any day for me.
I have flashed all JB release except MF1. All roms were giving too much lag when playing a video (play and then go forward or back and your phone might even become unresponsive) and youtube and facebook videos especially high resolution videos. I have tried Italian Job over MC8 and Kyrillos over MB4 (or MB2?), they were better than stock but not close to how GB plays videos. GB is best for SGA2 in my opinion and experience.

Man, clean RAM sometimes with dedicated Samsung app. I have ME7 and everything fine.
Gb maybe a bit faster but jb is very stable if u install a good custom Rom. Try the italian job rom by mkel91 the nature ux version or kyrillos v8. They are both good but i feel that italian job is more stable.
Plus jb is capable of running a lot of apps that gb can't and don't forget that BBM will only be available for devices with ics and up
If u need any help installing roms just ask

Cause we use 3.0.x kernel which is more better than gb kernel
Look at benchmark score (quadrant)

I do believe Jelly Bean is better, it may be slightly slower at some stages but the touchwiz UI is so much clearer and more advanced. I bought my SGA 2 back in november with GB, and got impatient with o2 not giving an update for it so I decided to root it and get Bagnz0r's sakura droid project on it. I prefer the AOSP look overall
i prefer JB
I use CM 10.1 from bangz0r is faster then gingerbread and more stable.
