Like the title says, I'm tired of the 4.0.4 TW or JB ROMs, I want to go back to something reliable and smooth. Any suggestions on the best cm9/9.1 ROMs?
I'm downloading the CM 9.1 ROM with their stock kernel, so please let me know what's the best out there for ICS.
Thanks
Any reason you want to stay with CM9? I was running the latest CM10 nightly and it was fast/stable and got great battery life.

Call echo is a big issue, also there isn't a completely stable release of JB out yet.

Did you have noise suppression enabled? I had had call quality issues until I did that.

Check with most dev's they'll almost all tell you that the echo on JB builds is due to the kernel. 4.1.2, 4.2, and the TW version of 4.1.2 all suffer from the echo, some DEVICES themselves don't have the problem.
I've had no problem with call echo on JB 4.2.2 I always use an older CWM non touch version and use darkside super wipe and darkside cache cleaner. Tried using touch CWM recovery and had an issue. I live by CWM 5.0.2.7 non-touch. :thumbup: :thumbup:

It's a hardware issue. Recovery version and flashing procedures do not matter.

And I'm one of the unlucky who have the newest GS2, the gray one, and I have an echo or as my gf calls it "underwater sound' with any and all CM or other 4.1+ ROM.

If your T989 (Titanium, its the official color name) is having problems you might wanna look into the official ported release of Touchwiz 4.1.2. It is a superlite ROM made by vincom. I haven't tried it out but before you permanently revert to CM9 you could try it out and see if it fixes your problem.

Running stock ROM with no problem here. If I were you, I would try another ROM or a new/old version of the same ROM. Sometimes apps get broken in ROMs.
Dang haha, but I love this rom !!! I suppose I could nandroid back to stock... Anyone else had this?? Bump!!

Uninstall YouTube. And redownload it from the market, what ROMs are you using? kernel?
Running stock and its runs beautifully
I prefer stock over custom ROMs in terms of stability and overall battery performance.

Latest build is #7-2... maybe you should update your Bigxie ROM?
Latest franco kernel is also #11. It's a very good kernel, improved from his previous builds. Update that as well.
I'd recommend doing a FULL WIPE (wipe factory settings, cache, dalvik) and flashing the ROM then gapps then kernel.
also update your radio to kk6 if you havent already.

or one of the latest UG radios. UG radios = optimized for North America. But I personally use XXKK6 over the UG radios. Up to you, I'd try both and see which one is better for you because mileages will vary.
I am currently running CM10 alpha 4.3 and I am loving it!! Question, when a new build comes out, do i just put it on phone and update it in recovery on top of the previous version, or is it recommend to flash in another manner for it to work properly, also should i wipe data,delvik,cache or anything before flashing a new build?
Keep up the Great work guys !!!!!
:good:
No need to wipe anything but cache/dalvik when upgrading versions of the same ROM
ya same rom they say cache and delvic cache is all that needs to be wyped... which is nicce.... as long as your faithful to one rom lol...... but im running the same rom and is the crt off animation only working sometimes for you as well?

I'm hearing a lot of happiness about this ROM. Running CM9 Alpha6. I guess I can go give it a try. Do you all still have Airplane Mode being locked, or LOS? Ima go check out the thread too.

There is no best ROM. Just try them all or just go stock. If you don't need customization and only want smooth and stable ROM, just stay stock. Nothing wrong with that.

There isn't stock JB for Toro or ToroPlus.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827986
this is the best rom i have tried. after flashing it i have no reason to flash anything else. completely stock aside from a reboot menu, sms split (which some people report it bugged but it works fine for me), and some optimizations. the thing is snappy, buttery smooth and absolutely rock-stable. not one reboot yet and everything just plain works. just be sure to format data/cache/system before flashing.
take it from a former crack-flasher: i haven't found a better rom for any device i've owned.
The best is the one everyone is using. And each person is using a different ROM
What does that tell you? They are all best!

I'm running Slim Bean 3.1.0 on my SGS3. Recently, I've been trying to flash the AGAT and KT747 kernels on my phone, but with no success.
I've tried flashing kernel,wipe cache/dalvik, rebooting, and then installing the Slim Rom file over it.
Anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

98% Sure you are trying to mix an AOSP based ROM with a TW (Stock) type Kernel. That doesn't typically work. There is an option for the AOSP version of Ktoonsez kernel though that _should_ be a better fit with that ROM.
Have fun and continue to read up *Grin*
The thing is, I'm almost positive I downloaded the AOSP version for the KT747 kernel

That's a good start, the AGAT says LJ7 based in the Post, leading one to believe it is for TW ROMS. And on the Ktoonsez it does have a download link for either TW or AOSP. One you are looking for should be named "KT747-Kernel-AOSP-JB-SPR-12-11-2012.zip". Verify that and speak up again if you are still having issues.
Yes, I'm certain that was the file I flashed, because I remembered noting that the file was 7.72MB prior to downloading.
Also, I'm sure that the Slim Rom is compatible with the KT747 kernel because several posts were made on the thread saying that
the battery life was amazing, which made me wonder if I was doing something wrong.

Reading your original post, The order should go 1) ROM then 2) Kernel ... Then Wiping Cache and Dalvik-Cache (And other wipes if needed). Reason for this is if you flash the Kernel first, then the Rom you are over writing the custom Kernel with whatever is packaged with the ROM.
That is the only other obvious thing I see at this point. Hope that helps..
Did you flash the kernel fix that slim says you need to flash in order to run another kernel? Guess you didn't...

See that now, thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
Please report back on how you like it, and if you really notice any differences.
It dropped 1% in approximately 30 minutes, half of the time the screen was just on, other half I left it on my desk (all while connected to Wifi).
My settings are 96/1998 on ktoonservative.
In my opinion, so far its amazing as compared to other AOSP roms I've tried.
hi guys! i've got the same problem, can't change the kernel in my i9300.. could you please tell me where i can find the kernel fix that you mentioned above?? Thanks!

If your using the I9300, i would check the thread for that phone. Otherwise you risk bricking it flashing something from this one.. This is for the US Variant SPH-L710.
Go here for all the I9300 stuff, Please save yourself a bricked phone. Thanks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1563
Will do, thank you!

I use cm10 build 6, can I go ahead and pick a kernel to flash over the stock cm kernel?
Well the kernel you want must be compatible with the rom you are using and your device. For example if you are on CM10 you must flash kernels built for CM10/jelly bean. Otherwise you will get boot loops.
There might be some kernels for CM10 in the development section of Galaxy wonder.

If kernel is for your Custom ROM that you have, you obv can.
flash the kernel that is exactly for ur ROM
kernel that is for CM10
kernel that is for CM9

It's better to stay with the same Kernel, from my point of view, I guess if you shared with us why do you wanna change the Kernel, there might be a solution for your problem, a friend of mine Flashed a different kernel and it was supposed to be compatible, but still he had problems and he flashed everything back again.
I wanted to use other governors. Btw I flashed a new kernel and it seems fine as of now

Good for you, as long as everything is working smoothly, then good luck with the new Kernel:good:
is it really just limited by CM9/CM10? Like if I am using acro's cm9 RC6 and the kernel was released after RC7 was released, maybe some of the extra features in RC7 causes a slightly different coding for the kernel which of course may cause problems if you use it on RC6?
also i suppose there's no need for clearing data/cache, fixing permission etc when flashing kernel right?
sorry if I'm not supposed to ask questions in a question. I just feel this is relevant to the title and i feel that it is better when people can just read this post and learn more about kernels. The list of how-tos in the dev section has not much details on kernels

Nope no problem at all. You can even flash R7 kernel on every previous version of arco cm. as long it is for the same android version
No need to do that. But just to play everything save it is better to do wipe cache and dalvik no need to wipe data
