what is the best gb rom?
Stability? Stock. Featurewise? In my opinion Arconium.
Definitely Arconium. Battery for me with this ROM is better than any other.
CyanogenMod 7.2 IMO. Hundreds of themes, updates often, is fast, has a lot of functions. The battery life is a little bit worse than Arconium's but it's not bad.
yep, what do you need for thinking that's best rom?
Arconium and cyanogenmod are very stable,fast and a lot of option... but if you want really know go make some test miui style is good too
Xperia Pro Ultima v1.0-1
nyc rom.!! i have been using since last 1 week.. still no bugs found
tnx i'll try it all

Hello, this is my first post.
I have a newbie question, which custom rom to use?
I don't need fancy stuff on my phone, i just need a stable and speedy custom rom, and good battery life.
Barebons, MIUI, Pays, CM 7 or ... ?
thanks in advance, and sorry for my English
If you want speed than go for CM7 and if u Eye candy than MIUI and if u want good battery life and stock apps than go for Barebones and Pays...
Thanks ifu, stock app are fine for me, I think battery life is most important thing. I know it depends on usage (data, wifi, bluetooth etc), but I was wondering if I could get 2-2.5 days out of it.
So barebones or Pays than.
Thanks again.
even the stock leaks on 2.3.3 is nice. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106375
I say try them all yourself and see which is best for your tastes! Barebones gave me excellent battery life and Pays are a good choice also. IMHO I prefer Jboogie's liquid arc over Pays. But nothing compares to CM7 in terms of speed and coolness! But you say battery life is a major factor so I would try Barebones, Pays, or Jboogie3's roms
Hey ppl.. I just got the defy.. And am confused what to flash.. The famous cm7 or the much heard of miui rom??
Which one is better.. Basically in terms of performance speed and battery???
Take ur sides
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
though i have no experience in miui, i would say they are basically the same, cuz miui (for defy) is based on quarxs (the dev. of the cm7 port for defy) old sources, and they are both based on the same kernel... and battery life depends almost entirely on apps you use, so the range batteries can perform on a specific rom varies a lot... so it all comes down to which one you like better
^^^ FIRST OF ALL you should use or at least get look of both roms before making any comment on this...
well I have used both,n now settled for WakjMIUI for more refined look(iphonish) n feel on other side cm7 has better performance(for games I guess) n features, on battery front & in my case cm7 & miui(plain) didnt last for 12hrs but after WakjMIUI 1.7.22 my battery lasts for 1.5 days, I would love to give a try to quarx's next cm7 update for few exciting features i.e. touch to focus etc.
IN SHORT its up to your taste..... but try both!!!
Well.. CM7 is a bit snappier, you could tweak more, disable more of the eyecandy, ect.
Battery life.. depends. Atm I would say, CM7 is worse, but I guess that will change after RC2.
MIUI on the other hand is here and there a little choppy, but it's not too bad. With heavy calling and texting, occasional gaming and browsing, battery lasts about zwo days for me. But it definitively looks a LOT better, and the most important for me, everything is SO seamlessly integrated. Feels really iPhone-ish, with the benefits of Android. In CM7, all the apps are barely matching each other and put together.. well, with not really having looks in mind.
So, try both and choose if looks or customizability and general performance is more important to you.
Just try both and check which one you like better. There's basically stock 2.2, leaked 2.3, Cyanogenmod and MIUI. Spend a few days using all of them.
thanks for the suggestions guys.. i tried both.. cm7 was soo dull and boring all apps dont even match each other.. so switched to miui.. and boy.. what a rom.. though it is too iphonish i think im starting to like it
just that the guys there should make the scrolling more smooth
oc'ed at 1ghz and defy runs all smooth
no bugs..(for the things that i use)
okay battery life.. abt 20 hrs.. moderate-heavy use
cm7, but here I have the wifi bug, so, Im going to try the miui
Hi, I have been reading the Xperia Arc Android Development fourms for the past few hours trying to decide which Custom Rom / Firmware to go with. I'm simply looking for a method to update my Arc towards a light/speedy phone with ICS.
I have had a few names shout out at me but currently its
Acronium 4.0 -> Trinity Kernal v1.6 or a recommended one he suggests.
I've seen that Trinity is created by the same author as MooDeD ICS.
Pretty much what I'm trying to say is its pretty hard to differentiate which custom rom would be better than the other ...
If I could be directed in the right direction, I would very much appreciate it.
-Sincerely
Steven
Hey, the combination you already wrote is the fasted ICS combination at the moment. Flash Arconium 4.0, Trinity Kernel v1.6 and the new Xperia S apps. You wont really find a faster combination than this right now.
As I know, Trinity kernel has incompatibility to some apps. I use ArcKnight 3.3 which is very good in battery life.
for the ROM, arconium 4 still the best for now.
Regreted changing to ICS
I regreted changing to ICS
Almost all custom ICS ROMs out there don't perform as promised and they are somewhat laggy
I've double-wiped before installing the ROMs so I believe it's not my problem
And GB can give me the smoothness and responsiveness that no other ICS ROMs can

Well try only 4.0.4 based ROM, for speed and responsiveness, I can recommend CM9, AOKP, and JJ Hybrid. Many others claimed Acronium is the fastest, but I've not try it.
My 2 cents

Arconium icS v4.
fAST LIKE hELL.
If u really care about your battery life, U should choose arconium...
Arconium with stock kernal has the best battery life....
I mean the best batery life...!!!!!!!
its pretty smooth aswell...
Thanks for the reply guys, it was very helpful.
Which ROM, in your opinion, has the best battery life for the DHD? Doesn't matter if it's AOSP, stock, etc.
I'm just struggling to get through a days' heavy use with Cyanogenmod and MIUI...
Thanks in advance.

I've tested many GB, ICS, and JB ROMS and so far IceColdSandwich has been the ROM with the best battery life so far, Jelly Time is also good if you'd prefer a JB ROM.

Is the speed of IceColdSandwich acceptable? As a daily driver? I tried it awhile ago and didn't like it too much. I preferred AOSPx but the battery drain was ridiculous.

The speed is good, I sometimes get random lags but you might not necessarily get those.
I'm getting only 12-14 hours of battery life using Runny Xtreme Surprise - v3.0.1
Which rom should I go for? I prefer GB because of camera, I really take a lot of photos.

I was a sense user too but ever since i flashed CM 7.2, i have no complaints at all + you have theme chooser so that you can customize a bit here and there. Battery lasts around 2-3 days on standby. You will see yourself that the battery life is much better than all those sense or other roms...Now i was wondering if i was to flash LordClockan's kernel and replace the current CM kernel, would it do any good towards performance and battery life?
CM 7.2 stable version
Seems like someone forgot to read the rules.
I want a stable ROM with android,but there is a lot of differend android roms, which should i get?

My suggestion is try as many as you can until you find one YOU like. CM7, CM9 and CM10 ROMs have ones that are more "stable" then others. It depends also on what you are planning on using the ROM for.......I mean what are the activities or tasks that you want to accomplish? Do you want the newest JB ROM for app compatibility while sacrificing battery life or a CM7 ROM which is dated a little bit but fares better in the battery department.
Also there is the issue with Flash not working correctly on JB but works with CM7 and CM9. If you want OTG support than you might want CM10.
My personal favorites are remember this is MY opinion and opinions are like butt-holes lil)
1.) Barebones CM7: a bare ROM without all the bells and whistles which leaves a lot of room for personal customization, excellent battery life
2.) Energy ROM CM9: smooth ROM with typical ICS ROM battery life which = or slightly greater than stock
3.) AlienDroid CM10: built on a excellent ROM and allows user custom options for the UI, battery life is getting better with CM10 ROMs but 8 hours might be an average
Hope this helps I'll stop rambling now
