Hey guys as I am almost done with this Rom, before I finish and release i would like to know what you guys want to see in it? The DARKSIDE really cares about user feedback its the only way development gets better. Let me know. Which launcher do you want to use, ADW (stock in cm7), Launcher2 (AOSP,and my favorite), or Touchwiz (SGS2 stock). Did you want some stock apps sammy included because you have grown to use it. Like I said let me know, but know just cause you ask doesn't mean I will deliver, I also gotta look at what's best for the rom. Thanks again. Lets turn this development section around and bring it back.
Welcome to the DARKSIDE!!!

For me pretty much stock AOSP and everything that is not needed gone. So better performance and smoother

I'd say anything that can be downloaded from the market you could prolly leave out. As for sammy Apps, if you can get them to Work, include them, as long as they're unistallable by the user(I personally don't use them). Did you get the audio bug worked out?

I will let you know about the audio when I actually test it. I am still building the rom and trying my personal tweaks. I lpoked into it though.

I personally do not like the adw launcher like on CM7. I prefer stock or TW. I have grown accustomed to these two and are the smoothest I have used. Adw has cool features, but I would like this phone as close to stock as possible. If people want adw it's in the market. Or you can add a flashable zip for each?
Either way do what you have to, to make this ROM the best possible and smooth and I am happy.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?

Hey, I'll tell you, I would like to see some CM7 action going on. The Sammy touch**** sucks balls. I want some CM7. It's alot better, and smoother, better tweaks, and sound. Sammy sucks balls when it comes to Software Development, at least on our phone.

Hello, you seem new to this. The difference between CM7 and Juggernaut, BeastMOD, Domination, Bombardier, and Android Zombie (AKA TouchWIZ ROMs, I like to call them Touch****) ... the difference is that CM7 is made from the stock gingerbread builds, and then the kernels/System files are ported to the device. TouchWIZ on the other hand is full of bloat, which makes it run slow, and isn't as tweaked and optimized as CM7. CM7 would always be far better than Touch****.
Safe Flashing!

Before you make a stupid mistake like others, please don't flash a Samsung Galaxy S II ROM, make sure it's a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II, they have different processors. Touch, a lot of different things.
Wanting to try something new besides Caulkin's GB rom
Depends on what you are looking for.
For AOSP I would suggest that you go with AOKP. As for TouchWiz probably go with The Blu Kuban or Mijjz Blend (ICS versions of course)

Did you download it from your phone or pc? I have had bad luck trying to download roms from my phone but have not bricked yet (knock on wood)
If you want to get an idea of what some of the ROMs are about before you flash them, then take a look at some of qbking77's review videos.
I just flashed sfhub's fe10, liking it so far, but my favorite so far had been calkulin's e4gt2 series...version 1.5 is fd26 and is a very stable and smooth rom.
Edit: i agree with binary though, check out qbking77's reviews-they're super helpful
If it wasn't for qbking77 & zedomax on youtube, I'd STILL be scared to attempt rooting! I personally have tried a LOT of ROMs: Blazer, Calkulin's E4GT2, CM9 Alpha 3, Nocturnal Venum before finally settling on Blu Kuban ICS FE10 (love the blue & black combo). It comes with an updater built-in & everything is working (hotspot included). Just make sure u follow the videos to the LETTER when installing any ROM! I luv my phone (never said THAT before!)
+1 on the kuban it runs very smooth battery life is awesome.Rujelus22 is on his game with this one the blue theme is very detailed and everything works.

I Got My Samsung When It Came Out, I Rooted it and Activated It The Next Day.... I Am Now Tired of The Stock ROM I Have and Wanted You Guys To Point Me In The Right Direction of Some Cool Looking ROMs. If You Guys Could Post Me Some Links, I Would Greatly Appreciate It.!
Thank You!
Not to be rude or anything but all one has to do is look at some of the popular ROMs in the development sections to get a pretty good idea. The popular ones tend to always be near the top, provide great documentation and support, and provide pictures and videos to get you a great idea of the experience. Just spend 30 minutes looking over the various options, and flash a few to see which one you want to stick with. Flashing ROMs is so easy nowadays that it really is just a matter of how much time you are willing to spend playing around with them. I'm waiting for Jellybean ROMs before I really make the jump and satisfied with the performance of stock (with Nova launcher) until those JB ROMs become pretty stable and can be used everyday.
You really can't go wrong with any rom currently out. I've tried them all out and they won't disappoint. I'm currently running Freeza's rom and though it's touchwiz based, he really changed it up.

For me they have all basically been the same in regards to battery life. At a minimum I can pull 16 hrs on battery with 4+ hrs of screen on time with each rom. I'm not really into playing games on my phone so that helps. However, battery life is really user dependent because we all use/set up our devices differently...so what may end up being good for me may not be the best battery life for someone else. Definitely give each one a try though and see which works best for you
I'm definitely going to try them all, but god damn are all TW roms almost 1gb in size? I thought sense roms with big @ half the size.

Not all of them but if they're full of addons, such as FreeGS3 by Clark, then it can get big. Freeza's rom is probably the smallest coming in at about 498MB

I don't think that's necessarily true. I've seen a few people post that FreeGS3 is noticeably smoother and less laggy than Blazer. Not knocking Blazer since it may have some other features that people prefer.
For my previous phone (EVO 3D), I tried several Sense ROMs and there was a significance difference in performance among them. Is it such a stretch to assume that a similar variance would be present in custom TW ROMs?

I guess my point is obviously people like all these roms, or they prob wouldn't always be the top four threads all day long...
It really depends on your own preferences as they all appear to be stable and running well..
Again my advice, pick one and flash it.. if u feel like trying something else then try that too.. If somethIng goes wrong restore your backvup.. again.. the beauty of xda.

This will be locked soon. And the most common answer will be "try them all", but you can try FreeGS3 JB in Android Development.
Also search for mods in Themes and Apps for a thread with "morph" in the title for full customization.

I have 2 ROMs for you that I have fallen in love with. The first is the latest Paranoid Android with its awesome custom options and battery life. And the other one is the one I'm using now, aokp with ktoonz. This ROM is also very customizable and has given me be best battery life so far.

Welcome to jelly bomb domination!...once you complete a full battery cycle and compare to other roms you will not mind the theming. Read/search the thread for how to mod it. You can get rid of the pull down graphic, slider and even the subdued background image that appears everywhere in v.8.0. At first I wasn't liking some of these either but now I barely notice them.

The answer to your search depends on whether you want to keep Touch Wiz or not. The upside to Touch Wiz is that you can still use S-Beam etc.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
I would just flash for yourself and see what you like best. Different phones react differently to ROMs so what works for some people may not work for you. It seems that most people here are using Jelly Bomb, Wicked Sensation, Paranoid Android, CM10. Try them for yourself, but be sure to give it a few days to settle before you make any decisions on battery life, stability, etc.

i have left jelly bomb and am now trying Frankenstein's kill joy v2.1 and wow am i loving it.. talk about performance and batt life.. quadrants in the 6k range. able to oc to 1890 Mhz using voltage control! super clean ui. can use silkui morphology mods to customize how i want.
idk.. the jelly bomb drove me nuts.. to much theme.
its was fun for the first 3 hours.. but yeah. it didn't grow on me.
i wish there was rom ratings poll.. for each device. and a stability rating along with the rating. if anyone knows someone or is capable of making this happen.. id be all over it! i know there is alot of junk troll crap out on these forms. I was looking at a rom to flash.. and baised off of OP it sounded ligit! then reading through the thread i soon found out that no one had been able to get the thing to even boot.. why cant posts like this be FLAGGED. idk. maybe the moderators were doing a crappy job or something. seems like they come in when least needed half the time ha. anyways. thanks guys for pointing me in the right direction!!!!
gladd this post didnt get deleted.
as for suggestions i think i will try PARANOIDANDROID. i had it running on my epic 4g touch and it was snazzy.. i dont remember why i left it.. i have "the collective" on e4gt now and was loving it.
anyways happy flashing and wish me luck!!

I would just flash for yourself and see what you like best. Different phones react differently to ROMs so what works for some people may not work for you. It seems that most people here are using Jelly Bomb, Wicked Sensation, Paranoid Android, CM10. Try them for yourself, but be sure to give it a few days to settle before you make any decisions on battery life, stability, etc.

taking a look now.
what do you think??
I'm in the same position. I upgraded from my 3 year old EVO 4G and am looking for where to start. This is a whole new learning lesson for me after being so use to roms and upgrading on the EVO. Are there some stable stock roms that have the sprint applications removed already? Which recovery is preferred as well. The EVO pretty much had only one recovery that worked well and Clockwork wasn't it. Not it appears there are 5 or six. TWRP is looking pretty good.
*Maybe this should be it's own thread. Hopefully with better spelling.
the peoples rom has ktweaker and i was able to land this
