[Q] Best ROM?????

just a simple question what ROM should i flash.
Which is the best one.
I'd think blacknotes because it has eveything on it.
But Optimized Kezra V4 Final seems good because its claimed no lagg and stuff.

Hi
I am new to the whole rom flashing concept. However after trying all the galaxy w roms in the development section I reached a conclusion that the best rom around is stock rom. U just have to root, add busybox and then apply v6 supercharger and you will have a very stable and responsive device. All other roms had me facing some issue or another.
At least until arco finishes our cm9

It seems that the Cow Bionic rom have highest score from antutu

Are you sure???
What about using new kernel with stock ROM.
....And when you flash a new ROM can you just only restore Data in CWM to get my apps back. i dont want to use titanium back up because its annoying i have alot of apps.

cow rom is the best. most stable. I've tried all the others.

Just so i'm clear.
The roms are pretty stable until I add arabic support. After that I get force close bugs almost 3 times a day. It might be the arabic patch I am using. Anyway after that I went back to stock for UAE and with v6 super charger it's great. I hope to be able to use one of the roms cos I really liked bionic cow 2. But until someone makes it pre set with arabic read/write i'm gonna stick with stock
I also would like to pay respect to all MODers out there. I know they put lots of effort in making the roms and I don't want anyone to think that I don't respect them

Let me share my experience..
I hope it will help.
- I use kezra ROM for my first custom rom and it's work well for me but it's quite laggy when I play hd game.
- And then COW bionic ROM is available. So I try it (non OC version ). Result: it's work perfectly for my daily use.. it's little bit laggy if for HD game but I didn't play much anyway so I use this ROM for quite long until
- hybrid 2nd generation is available. So I decide to try this new ROM.
this ROM is awesome. I didn't get laggy at all when I am play hd game. But unlucky, I encounter many FC if I use it quite a while without restart it.
- alpha 1 for CM9 is available. So try it.. camera didn't work but I didn't care about it.. it's awesome.. very smooth and also didn't laggy for hd game. But I got APN problem and I can't find the solution at that moment. So I m back to COW Bionic ROM.
- and then arco find APN problem solution. So I try it again. And it work perfectly. And I am use it until now (alpha3). So if camera issue is not major issue for you, i do recommend this awesome ROM.
Or just try spent your time to find your soulmate ROM. Life is a choice anyway. ^.^

for me normal use, it can last 17~19hours

i think bionic cow 7 v2 it's a stable rom..

currently using FAW rom..for me its the best rom compare to others (IMO)
previously im using hybrid, bionic rom v2 oso kezra v4..
all are great in normal usage..but when come to HD games such as shadowgun, asphalt 6 and others, my previous custom rom tend to cause laggy in the game..and sometime when it become so lag..suddenly it will restart by its self..
but im really glad that there are so many developers out there trying their best for the BEST rom..
and im here..always ready to try it!!thanks you all!!

Just a comment. FAW ROM is using stock XXLM8 kernel while others are using Cow kernel. So far, XXLM8/DXLM3 kernel gives better visual performance.

For England Value Pack
is there a rom for the value pack STOCK only.
Because i want just the stock rom because is good.
Where is the rom if there is one?????

i loved it
excellent yar good job.. keep it up...

i don't know if there was a stock value pack just for England region at the moment, but i suggest you to check it on this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654643
or, you can search it on sammobile, on its firmware section (just goog it).
and also, AFAIK the value pack for europe region started from series xxlm6 and above (please CMIIW guys, )
and related with the topic of this thread, i think the bionic V2 still the best GB custom ROM for this device (IMO).
really stable and had many alternatives, such as choosing OC or non-OC kernel, smooth/fast performance, or turn on/off the zram with cow panel. All of that features are really innovative, because it give more options for the user to determine their best setting.

I would suggest arco's CM9 and for tweaks I guess the modded kernel for it would be a good tweak. Its quite stable and very nice to work with.

agreed, but it will surely be better w/ V6.
Also, I think MIUI + V6 will be a good choice.

Well the additions with V6 is nice but I don't think its really needed since when running CM9 its smoother and faster than when it was on GB also games don't lag much either.

Do i need to flash stock ICS ROM in order to install custom ICS ROM ? And what is the best kernel with a lot of tweaks and stable?

There is no stock ICS rom. You have to install CWM recovery with ODIN and then install the ICS rom you want with that recovery

CM9 based ROM is still considered W.I.P, even most of the functions are working, but it may not be as stable as GB
If you wish to try a ICS looks GB ROM, which may be more stable, there are a few:

Actually I found it even if is still in Alpha its stable and smoother than the GB custom ROMs and alot of the problems in the past like poor battery life isn't there in its current build.

From my view, stable is when i could hand over my phone to someone who is not experienced with phones and tech in general, so i would have a good feeling.
Thats not the case with CM9 atm - White Screen Bug, Bluetooth partially working, Camera sometimes crashes, battery life - all problems that may be irrelevant to experienced users, but we should keep a neutral definition to the word "stable".
Currently it is Alpha, and i guess that is what a manufacturer would also call it, if it would be an official ROM.
Besides this terminology, arco has really done great work with CM9, and he is pushing development further with good common sense i think.

That's a brilliant piece and I thoroughly agree!!
Sent From My Wonder on CyanogenMod 9

Yea, I also agreed that CM9 is a good job, but since he/she mentioned newbie in the title so I think GB may be a less problematic choice at this moment, myself wish to use CM9 too, but I don't really have time for switching and updating ROM frequently

Personally i use MUTANT ROM, good battery life, rather smooth and stable. If you prefer a GB ROM, i would recommend this.
BTW, how is the ICS ROM going? Is the battery life still unstable? The last time i use ParanoidAndroid, the battery was like... 30% drop in 5hours of standby... GOSH...

Black Notes Last Page, it's working well but just:
i) After executing the SuperCharger V6 script, I may not receive the incoming messages, but I guess I may have to play with the setting a bit, anyway I seldom run that script, so it don't really affect me a lot
ii) If I open too much pages in the Opera Mobile, it may freeze for a few minutes, but I think it may be the Opera Mobile's problem
iii)In a few buttons(such as Save & Cancel button for the alarm clock setting), both the background & word are dark in colour, so it is not really well visible
And I had answered ansyori28, sgaheer, bladez87 and your question yesterday, really sorry for replying so late, for you question, I think it should be okay if it didn't force close after you fixed(changed) the permission to rw-r--r-- and reboot
How about Mutant ROM, any issues inside it?

[Q] CM10 Gaming performance and Camera quality

To those who have tried CM10-based ROM either FXP, AOKP, or MIUI, I know CM10 has good performance and smoothness all-around,
but I'm curious about these 2 things
How is the gaming performance, mainly Temple Run which I play a lot when waiting or sitting around?
How is the photo quality from camera compared to stock ROM?
(I never tried CM-based ROM so I'm a little bit nervous about trying it, and also I heard that Titanium-backup doesn't work, so I can't restore applications data, which means there'll be lots of work to re-customize the apps .)

Yeah try Cm10 fxp142 or fxp143 (I think fxp143 will come out tomorrow).
Firstly, gaming is amazing! Best gaming ROM I've ever tried thanks to project butter and jelly bean. Modern Combat 3 runs smoothly, and temple run flawlessly.
Secondly, the camera is camera ics from play store. Download it and give it a go and make a judgement if that's good enough for you. Also adfree removes ads on camera ICS, so that's pretty much everybody's set up.
Conclusion: get cm10. Its awesome.
Hit the thanks button if I helped

CM10 sux at gaming bro. Idk about the camera quality but CM10 is too heavy and buggy. Use ICS Pureness. It's been the best ICS rom i came through so far.

for normal use even if in beta stage cm10 is much smoother and snapier than ICS. rest gaming is bit buggy but as more stable versions come it will also get better. for camera the libs are not available for jb so it has problems well most of the jb roms here use ics camera app.
i use paranoid android with fusion kernel 3.5 with no problems .

I've already tried most of Stock-based ROM on the forum, maybe I'll try that too, but I don't have performance issue or anything, even in my current setup in signature, everything (games and what not) runs smoothly,
I just wanted have a taste of Jelly Bean, and since Sony is not updating, I thought about CM10.

[Q] AOKP Vs CM10.1

Hey guys. I love flashing new ROMs but right now I'm a bit confused.
What are the big differences between CM10.1 and AOKP? I know both are based on 4.2 (at least the unofficial AOKP nightlies are).
The main thing I need is stability and battery life. I also really like customizing the LED. Other than that...I'm lost.

Stock ROM.........................................................................................................................................................................................................
just try them out yourself.........................

I have tried them both out.
Once I install a theme and Nova Launcher, I can't tell the difference.

Just compare the feature lists. Or use CNA or PACman which incorporate features from both.

I'd say the CM10.1 & CM10.1 Kangs would be better if you want a stable ROM with frequent flashing (Nightlys) over AOKP , otherwise try Xylon as it has best features cherrypicked from both AOKP , AOSP & CM bases :good: & highly customizable + a good support thread too !!
Paranoid Android is also a better option but the PA is no more a CM base rom (AOSPA base instead) , missing those theming & more CM features .
for a closer to stock UX RasbeanJelly is the best !

[discuss] nicest rom

Hi guys and a wanna no what you think is The best rom
So send answers plz
I think cm7, stock or cm10.1 send screenies plz also

For me aokp by erickas is the best.
Lots of options and great performance and smoothness
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium

I am currently using the test build of CM7 with ics layouts and is enough for me till MMB Team releases their next AOSP ICS build

cyantux rom is awesome just try it

AOKP milestone 6 CM9 based is what i used daily now. only a few bugs, never had a random reboot till now.

I am currently developing a stock based ROM (pretty much just tweaking the stock ROM but also changing some interface elements). If you're talking 'nicest' as in best interface, mine won't do (I am doing a Gingerbread X Jellybean X Other style interface). But it is suprisingly fast. If you're interested about my upcoming ROM, you can inbox me a message and I can let you in on some details!

I just tried 1 rom previously (LightOrange), but now I have been testing the official cyanmobile 2.3.8 (build 4) and I am loving it. Satellite fixing is ultra fast, you can customize almost everything, it comes with many choices of unlock screens and call answering interfaces. Smart calling is awesome (if you're messaging someone, or have one of your contacts on screen, just put the phone to your ear and it calls automatically). It comes with an integrated option to force move to SD card. I flashed int2ext4+ script and now I have a "huge" internal memory (1Gb ext4 partition + internal). Together with Adrenaline Engine and chainfire 3D (both not included), this is the best performance I had so far.
There are also some other good ROMs. I heard democracy NT is great. S'periance, Adrenaline ROM, M'Rage. It's a matter of personal choice in the end. Never tried CM9 or CM10, but I think most roms are more unstable or lacking functions and the performance gain, if any, is not that big (correct me if I'm wrong, though ).

I tink best (only bad thing battery goes fast down) rom is cm 10.1 by Old Droid + TouchWiz 4.5 theme from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062676
Gapps from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2167627
And theme from google play
Some pics:
Get Equipped With MEGAMAN

the kitheirp
For me the best roms are:
Stock= M'rage Rom what can I say? This rom has everything ! I dont like the orange but still is the best Stock rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136550
CM7= JellyBread unfortunately its descontinued now, but you can mix the version 2.5 with 3 and have a GREAT rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991020
MIUI= MIUI Gingerbread of Franklin its the only miui that is bugless, if you search the rights themes your phone gonna look beautiful, is not multilanguage, but if you are smart enough (in galaxy ace forum) theres a one that it is, and you can solve the problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863260&highlight=miui

i would also say it's MIUI by Franklin, it has cool UI, also good for gaming unlike the cm10 roms, it has large consumption of RAM so it's not suitable for gaming.

i think aosp is the most stable...that's why i chose aosp ics by MMB

AOKP jb-mr1 by erikcas super smoth and fast no big problems
