Understanding roms after the ics update

OK.. So every phone i have ever owned i have rooted, Kernels, anything and everything.
But here is my problem.. I have recently updated (manually) to the new ICS on my epic 4g touch.
I have tried all the roms pre this release and never had 100% luck with any so normally always ran stock os plus root.
I want to know if A) there are new roms post this recent update, B) if i root to another pre-existing rom is it going to mess it all up again.
Basically i want like CM10 out or something. Something made specifically for how the phone is now...
Any suggestions?? Im tired of stock. I want to customize!!! :crying:

Depends how custom you want to go. If you want to flash custom theme and modz, you must go with a deodexd ROM.
But if you want AOSP-ish look, agat has a very good stable and themed FF18 ROM he calls tFF18. It has a simple look, much different than stock tho, but it's built with a custom kernel and based off Samsung, not CM9 or 10
not sure if that helps.

The upcoming aosp builds should see a large improvement if it's of any interest to you

It does help!. So if i get this right... ANY deodexed rom or another option is tFF18. And these are both based off our current rooms so that EVERYTHING WORKS

Are there any other name brand roms out there i can look into?
Anything t look into specific??? As far as AOSP roms go, ive tried them in the past, but are you saying their newer version ones are friendly to the latest update?

Yes everything works. tFF18 is odex, so you can't change much of the ROM but it works incredibly smooth and stable. Also, practically all DEODEX'd ROMs have the hacked sprint hot spot for tethering. Stock and odex roms require the Wifi Tether app which is easily found by googling "wifi tether apk"

Aosp is nice and light weight, makes it super snappy, but you lose a couple convenient features from samsungs touch wiz UI.. My main gripe with going aosp/aokp is that my camera doesn't perform as well, where IMO Samsung did a nice job with the software.

whats the most stable JB ROM?

hi,
i know asking what rom is better is not a good questions as it is different for different people. However, I just want to know what is the most stable, so once I flash it i dont need to keep re flashing.
I am ussualy a fan of CM and when they get stable releases I flash them and then dont need to think about it anymore. on my previous samsung galaxy S I used the CM9 RC for a long time until the stable CM9 came out and then used that.
currently there is not stable CM10 and when it comes out I will probaby use it perminently.
What JB rom can i install that will be stable to use for the next months until CM10 stable comes out?
im using stock JB right now.

stock.

ok i understand. but i guess the main things im lacking on stock is percent battery, ability to alter the navigation bar at the bottom, adding shortcuts to the lock screen slider, and themes.
is there any way to do that on stock? if not any other rams as clock to stable as stock

Bugless Beast, 9-27 has to new binaries and is JRO03R.

Rasbeanjelly. Its the cleanest rom ever. Fast, amazing battery life and the latest aosp source. Also the nee binaries from jro03R. You should try it. It has the power widget, lockscreen targets and some more mods. If you dont like all the blue of the icons, simply flash modstorms white mod. Flash the rom + trinity/franco. The outcome is awesome performance, no slowdowns, everything just works. No reboots and sh!t. I highly recommend it.

You've already got the most stable Jelly Bean software then

stock, are you jellin, cm10.
after those you get into roms with more features and and there tends to be little bugs that sometimes go along with them.
Nothing against the others Ive had good experiences on alot of roms but as for the MOST stable these in my opinion would be them.

Stock ROM.
Beamed from my Grouper.

ok looking into BAMF and rasbeanjelly.
another question that could help me dicide between the two. do either have the possibility to upgrade the rom on the device without a computer. so when i install it i can always have the latest version without having to keep resetting to factory settigns and wiping all the data and cache

all roms do.. that's why you have custom recoveries.. i strongly suggest you read efrants stickies before you flash anything.

Yeah, you should read up on some stuff before continuing anything Rom related. Just look for stickied topics, read them, and you will have way less questions left.

are you sure? becuase when i was running CM9 RC2 on my old captivate, then the CM9 stable came out. I kept checking for updates in the settings and it kept saying my software was upto date. I had to download the new file and flash it again in clockwork mod.

What the most stable AOSP rom?And few more questions

I havent been on here for a while and currently on MOAR rom, i love it but i been having wifi issues with it. My wifi disconnects every hour or so, so i cant download things.
Im thinking about flashing CM/AOSP rom but would like to know which is most stable and if i can use Morphology with CM/AOSP roms.Or is there any barebone stable Twiz roms that i can use Morphology with.
Thanx in advance.

Oh, and what is AIO Aroma?Is this Aroma installer for AOSP roms? And does it have theming like morphology?

There is no "most stable [type here] rom", they're all good
But generally its a good idea to stay on builds up to the latest official version (aka 4.1.2), because anything above that will be prone to issues
Aroma installer is like an installer customizer for android...it let's the dev give you options about how to install it, what to install, etc. And no, it's not restricted to AOSP roms, it can be added to any flashable zip (rom, mod, theme, etc)
AIO just means all in one

Its not the MOAR ROM I'm on it w no WiFi issues, i think flashing another ROM will not fix your issue. I can't remember if 2.3 MOAR came with the connection optimizer or not. If it did make sure you disable it.

I was on Sonic rom before and had no problems,but with Moar my fifi disconnects and reconnects once in a while.Maybe i just had a bad flash or wrong kernel,im on latest Agat.
Is there any roms that will let me connect my phone via usb to ps3 to copy files? I remember it could before ics update, isc uses new protocol so it cant connect to ps3 as mass storage.On my JB GS2 rom they have old mass storage protocol baked in but i havent seen this on S3 roms yet.

Honestly, I can't say, it just depends on what you're looking for. If maximum stability is a must, then the old CM would do the trick . I would just recommend going through the last couple pages for LiquidSmooth to get a sense for any bugs that have been fixed or are still present

Liquid Smooth is awesome, as well as DeviantXone.

In my opinion, as of late, most AOSP ROMs will lock up your phone or won't run smoothly.
Go with older builds that don't include the 3.4 kernel. All run smooth.

I ported Pure AOSP ROM if your looking for something no bells no whistles just Google its like a Galaxy Nexus for our SGS3

The CM10 builds from pio_masaki are running great. I recommend you to use it together with the gm_2.0 Kernel.

Thanks for the information!!
I read a bit this tread before i start this post here.
Okay so i will try to install this:
Build 3 Linaro Tablet UI Modded FINAL

gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
right?
But what you mean with gm_2.0 kernel?
Is this included in the rom or i must flash this separately after install the rom+gapps?
Where can i download?
Sorry for my odd questions but i will do all right...

Hi frischeis and welcome!
Keep in mind the CM10 builds are not "officially" supported so there is the odd quirk here and there, overall all of the CM10 roms here are running pretty good. In terms of Pio's roms, he suggests using the kernel that is already packaged in his roms. The gm_2.0 kernel is a kernel that was developed with CM10 in mind: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818924 and some say don't work well with his ROMS which is ok, because the prepackaged kernels in those ROMs are rock solid.
Also note that the CM10 roms are not ICS, they are Jellybean roms. There are still a few ICS roms out there if that is what you are interested in: These are listed from newest to oldest:

He pretty much nailed it, if you want a stock ish ICS I'd suggest his keebers work, there's also very outdated but functional CM9 builds around if that's to your liking.
It isn't so much I don't recommend the GM kernel with my roms, it's that I know it has issues that didn't get sorted out and reflects as users reporting Rom issues that aren't Rom issues, and to report issues with the included kernel first. If your setup likes the GM kernel, by all means enjoy it, it's been a great addition to the development on this device.
It also wasn't meant for JB, it was a purely ICS kernel, however our ICS kernels worked on 4.1 with no modding required, so it worked with JB with no changes. Got lucky and Acer had stuff going that ICS didn't need but JB does. It should also work in 4.2 with minimal fuss.

For me the gm kernel works very well with CM10. Nothing to report until now - but I'm running for 2 days now.... Let's see.

I'd recommend flashing different ROMs to see what you like. I like baked, and cm10 but I like the dark theme and on baked you can switch from tab UK and phab. Which is nice. Should help my tab last a while longer....lol the gm kernels have worked for me for quite a while. He had an over clock to. 1.7 MHz too.... no wonder his tab died...lol I think I still have a copy on my SD card! They run best on the older boards. So the community says. But my new one likes it. Over clock to 1.2 and lionheart and boom. I did like green ICS. And cm9 was a consistent winner. Cm10 has come a long way...

So i have flashed KEBBERSROM_CMFLEX_V1.2 - Based on 4.1.2/CM10.
So is this kernel included or i must flash separately?
One issue two times i have with this rom: i got this notification: "Trebuchet is closed" and i dont come on the homescreen.
Only over the status bar-settings-apps i reset trebuchet and it works normaly.

That launcher is buggy. Install and use Nova or Apex launcher and you won't have to worry about the force close.
Godmachine kernel is not in this ROM, it is packing ezTerrys version, which is the source for GodMachines kernel.
So technically it is almost the same but older and not tweaked as much. Solid kernel on this ROM.

Thanks!
I will try out...

Also don't disable Google search bar in trebuchet or it'll constantly crash. Another launcher would be better but to stop that particular issue, leave Google search bar enabled.
Tapatalked from my HTC DNA

So i change the launcher.
Now i have nova launcher_works good.
In the moment no buggy situations.
:good:

Keep in mind though that this ROM isn't perfect. There are a few albeit very minor quirks. I have the issues in the OP of thread.

So what is your opinion about a Rom with JB 4.1.x
Witch one is your favorit?
Or better witch one has no bugs?

There is no bugless 4.1 as there wasn't one made for us, it's all done by developers on their own time. It more like, which bugs can you live with, most any of the 4.1 are daily drivable.
Tapatalked from my HTC DNA

So which rom has the fewest bugs?
I now is a difficult question.
And - or a better question:
In which rom is the further development or is the tablet too old to develop it further?
Which rom is pushing forward?
I read in some threads development is terminated!??
--------------------------------------------------------------------
At the moment I must say I am very satisfied with the KEBBERSROM_CMFLEX_V1.2!
So thank you again for to work behind the stage!!!

Some stopped development, yes. I'm going to start 4.2.2 builds soon...
"soon" doesn't mean that these builds will be available soon. I have to start from scratch..

ive been using pro bam 4.3 rom and it has been great. except for battery running out a little fast but am giving it a few days for the rom to settle in!

PA 3.99
I have been messing around with a lot of 4.3 roms and pretty much all of them have the same stability. As for me, I prefer PA (Paranoid Android) 3.99 and PAC Rom but more toward PA 3.99 because it just seem slightly less buggy and bit smoother. Again, to each their own at this point since there is no official 4.3 for this device.

I've been using Hellybean , always you the latest, no issues. Love it.

As others have said its really just a preference thing. I have been trying out a few different ROMs, just to see which ones I like the most, especially 4.3 versions. I have been using [ROM] Unofficial | CyanogenMod 10.2 | Diablo Kernel [09-23-13] from ThdDude for the past day or two and havent had any issues to speak of. I really like that it has the Diablo Kernel compiled. I have noticed though that for some reason when I was trying to Flash 4.3 ROMs with CWM the system would boot but then go black and would have to go into recovery. I finally decided to give TWRP a try and havent experienced any problems flashing 4.3 ROMs. I have actually really been enjoying it and have some real respect for the developers.

stable 4.3 roms
The best I have used is the 9/26 aokp by whitehawkz along with uber kernel. Running 2.6.3.0 twrp. Especially like the active notifications with no problems.

There is no BEST and yet they are all the BEST. Members are expected to research and read through the development threads before altering their device. The only thing you will get here is a list of all the ROM's because every member has found what is best for them. You can get the same list by looking at the first few pages in development.
Thread closed.
Have a great day!
