There are so many good ones. You really just need to take some time and flash a few. I was on Slim ROM with my cappie and again with my s3. Have been using Task650 and Ktoonsez AOKP and am really enjoying it.

Task & ktoonez AOKP is the way to go
Best rom around
Sent from my toaster

Task AOKP is extremely popular, and I must agree it's a great rom. I like CM10 and AOKP the most, but in actuality it all comes down to preference. I suggest you try them out for yourself.

Task and ktoonsez aokp is the best Imo. It's getting really polished these days as well.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app

Can't go wrong with Task650's AOKP project. I've tried out most of the other jelly bean ROMs here and his is head and shoulders above the rest. A word to the wise - by all means enjoy his work but read the original post at the start of the thread and always remember - the search feature here on XDA is your best friend.

Intergalatic , stock, stable 18hrs 3 hrs screen time and EVERYTHING works.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

I'm a CM10 fanatic, have tried out a lot of other ROMs and always come back to it. Just went stable and 4.2 should be coming soon! Can't go wrong.

New to SGS2 T989

Hi all
I am new to the SGS2 T989. I am coming from a Nexus S 4G, which I rooted and went with Peter Alfonso's Bugless Beast, running Matr1x kernel.
I am going to be using Straight Talk in Baltimore/DC. What have people's experience been with Straight Talk?
Also, because I was running a Nexus device with a lightly tweaked AOSP ROM, I would like to find something similar for the SGS2 T989. I prefer as close to vanilla as possible, I don't like CM or AOKP (why the cheesy unicorn?), because they are just too buggy imo. I've tried them all and kept going back to Bugless Beast. So, I'd like to find a ROM that is the equivalent of Bugless Beast if possible. I hope it is out there!!
Looking forward to getting to know you all on this forum!
Cheers

If you dont want cm9/10 or aokp then you'd have to take a current rom and install a different launcher. It wont be exactly the same but theres no alternative right now.
I would recommend you give AOKP a try. You can always customize it to not even notice the Little Unicorn!!

I actually prefer the look of the T989! Although if it were as thin as the sgs3 that would be awesome.

Where to start???

Hey, everyone! So, long story short, I pretty much jacked up my OG Droid Incredible a couple of weeks ago and was force to pick up a new device. I went with a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, basically because the dev support is huge. The only problem with it is, the dev community is almost too huge! I've been scoping out the development section and it has my head spinning as there's just so much to choose from! Anyone have some recommendations for a nice stable Jellybean ROM and kernel to flash to get started with? And what does everyone use for recovery? I wasn't anticipating getting a new device this quickly so I haven't really had any time to research and sift through all of these threads. Any and all recommendations would be greatly appreciated! I look forward to being a part of this amazing community! Thanks everyone!
Sent from my Droid Incredible using xda app-developers app
personally I always go with CM, and they did just start nightlies with CM10 (jellybean), kernels I just stick to what came with the rom, which is of course a CM kernel, and recovery, well you guessed it TWRP also brought to us by the CM team. There are many devs out there offering many great roms, but no matter what I always find myself going straight back to true CM roms, not CM based roms.

Man, we haven't had any official CM ROMs for the Dinc since Gingerbread. Everything ICS, and now JB, has been CM-based. I've never really been huge on MIUI but I'm willing to give anything a shot! There's just so much going on over here, I'm a bit overwhelmed!

BAMF Paradigm has been rock solid for me. It's close to stock with a handful of customizations. I'd say it's "just right"!
Is there any sort of Touchwiz theme or add-on that works with any of these JB ROMs? I know most people can't stand Touchwiz but I ran a CM9-based Touchwiz ROM on my Dinc for a while and absolutely loved it!

I guess you can search for themes that are compatible with CM10 theme chooser, but I don't think there's any Touchwiz ROMs. Also Touchwiz itself is not yet Jelly Bean, so it's gonna be pretty hard.
Welcome buddy! Glad to see your aboard the nexus train lol
As for ROMs.. this will depend on you specifically as I enjoy customization I went with -
JbSourcery and CNA, both stable and Jelly Bean.
Allow a huge variation of Customization, Miui was great with Gingerbread but since ICS it went to hell.
Kernels will vary depending on the ROM. Stock usually seems to be best.

Haha, indeed. Even started a sound quality thread.

Personally I use TWRP recovery as it is very nice. I used the goo manager app in market to install it. Other than that I have tried many ROMs and all of them have been great but am now using paranoidandroid and probably will be from now on. It has things totally different than any other ROM and is really cool. With that I use the trinity kernel cause it performs well and I really like the colors. Also there is a touchwiz mod in the mods section that looks to be very complete. Look in there if interested to see what Ron they recommend on it.

Wtf is wrong with stock? I run rooted stock and I'm completely happy with it. What exactly is she using the phone for? If she isn't an enthusiast like most of us, she wouldn't be able to tell the difference. If all she is doing is texting, using social networking, watching videos, and talking, stock is fine. If you're feeling risky, experiment.

I would guess CM, but I don't know how far along in development CM10 is. I'm sure there is something out there. There are just so many ROMs it isn't even funny.
Personally, if you want stability, I'd rock CM10 or AOKP.
Many of the others are simply mashups if the two; and while that isn't necessarily a bad thing, I put my full trust in Roms who have written the majority of their own code rather than Cherry Picking commits from others.
In the long run, it's her/your choice.
But I've had great success, personally, with AOKP.
That being said, my bread-and-butter may not match yours.
The best bet would be to teach her how to flash Roms herself so she can try each one for a day or so.
Post two of the guide in my sig would be a good place to send her.
She can then get herself up and running; and won't have to continually rely on you.
I've been running AOKP nightly builds and recently their official Build 1 and haven't had any problems even though I've been lazy and dirty flashed the last two updates. +1 to AOKP JB Build 1
How about Eclipse? I've been running that on Jellybean for a long time, totally rock solid.

What exactly are you disappointed about? Try the latest official builds of cm10 or aokp. Not a nightly or a kang.. an official build.
Try Paranoid, it looks pretty wild!
SHHHH!!!! You're not allowed to say that!
I've done the same as you. The only change I've made to stock is run nova launcher to make it a bit more purdy and personalized.
Minco is pretty nice since it's really close to stock but faster, but in the end I'd rather just run stock for peace of mind (not that Minco was unstable).
Stock based roms perform the best in my opinion. Although Bamf Paradigm and Wasabi Miui run well for me, if I run them with trinity 1344 kernel.
IMO It seems like CM and AOKP stay in the nighties phase for way too long, and bugs and stability issues take too long to fix. This has been the case on most phones I have owned. They are great innovative roms though. I find it rare when a Rom with loads and loads of features runs as good as stock based roms do. I love having features, but performance, stability and battery life are above all features for me. I can just find mods myself anyways and add them as I need.
If stock is what works best for you, run stock, there's nothing wrong with that.
Why do you want people to change your mind?

Fast reply, I don't even know what that is but anyway, Android comes down to user preference, if you enjoy stock, then rock it dude, I've tried only a handful of roms here but stock gives the most solid performance 9 out of ten times. granted I'm running Slimbean now, but I like to flash every two weeks and this rom is pretty great aside from bootup time XD.

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.

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.

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.

Any of y'all had any luck or success with an overclocked TouchWiz ROM?

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.
