Hi guys @xda.uncle suggested I make a guide of what to flash for newbies. Here it is!
So you want to learn about roms? Well this guide will demonstrate which rom is suitable for you. Lets begin.
A first note is if you are marvel or marvelc. A marvel(GSM) device has a removable sim. A marvelc(CDMA) device does not. If you go into "About Phone" in Settings you can find out whether you are marvel or marvelc.
Sense 2.1
Info:
These roms are based on stock and are definitely recommended for beginners. There are many mods and kernels for this type of rom. Themes have been created by @Mazer.one, @steelmaggot and yours truly! This type of rom is very customizable.
Advantages:
The most stable - no performance issues
The best battery - around 5-6days
Based on stock - no bugs
Disadvantages:
None
Kernel for performance: Dustv9.0
Kernel for battery: Cakev1.4
Kernel for balance: SenseFirev2
Sense 3.5
Info:
This rom was first ported by @idogx to our device. This rom is actually fairly fast and has quite an amazing UI. Thanks to @einstein.frat and @finance.resat the rom is pretty much stable.
Advantages:
Smooth and fast - performace is tip-top
Great UI - slightly better than Sense 2.1
Also cusomizable - in Themes and Apps section
Disadvantages:
A few bugs - accelerometer and weather
Kernel for performance: mindhaxor overloackable
Kernel for battery: EQKDP kernel
Kernel for balance: kernel by baluu
CyanogenMod 7
Info:
There are only a few bugs and this rom has a reasonable battery and reasonable speed. This was first ported succesfully by @alquez. By reasonable I mean it isn't the best but it is good. The best gingerbread rom is either CM7 or my Semi-AOSP rom which is slightly more stable. Unfortunately CM7 is not available for marvelc but @crossfire77 is looking into that.
Advantages:
Recently has become stable
Many CM7 themes
New kernel thanks to @eoghan2t7
Disadvantages:
Still has bugs - tethering
Slower than sense
Kernel for battery: Stock CM7 with governor as smartassv2 and max 600 and min 122
Kernel for performance: Stock CM7 with governor as performance and max 864 and min 122 - slight chance of reboots
Kernel for balance: eoghan2t7 CM7 kernel
CyanogenMod 9
Info:
Another awesome android version with a few bugs. This is slightly worse than CM7 but better than CM10. This was first ported by @modpunk who is also known as Cryptomilk and asn. There are many speedy roms for this but not bugfree.
Advantages:
Hardware accelertion enabled - better graphics
Many awesome CM9 themes
Disadvantages:
Quite buggy - video playback
Tethering doesn't work
Kernel for battery: Stock CM9
Kernel for performance: Stock CM9 with governor as performance
Kernel for balance: eoghan2t7 CM9 kernel
CyanogenMod 10
Info:
Also ported by @modpunk this rom is the most admired by people. This due to the number of tweaked out and themed roms people have created.
Advantages:
A large variation to choose from
Awesome themes again
Many different mods
Disadvantages:
Tethering bug
Not very good battery
Kernel for performance: Optima kernel by Jdroid (Jdevs) on 4pda.RU
Kernel for battery: Stock CM10
Kernel for balance: eoghan2t7 CM10 kernel
CyanogenMod 10.1
Info:
Succesfully started by @rapalag and made more stable by @JDevs. This rom is still slowly developing but alright for daily use.
Advantages:
Being developed by experienced people
Slowly becoming stable
Disadvantages:
Still not stable
Not suitable for beginners
See here
MIUI
Info:
The most beautiful rom ever! @Henry_01 and @ak0r are the main men here. A great rom but speed isn't the top priority.
Advantages:
Looks beautiful
Great graphics
Disadvantages:
Not so well on speed
Kernel for battery: Stock with OC disabled
Kernel for performance: Stock with performance as governor
Kernel for balance: Stock
Extra Tips
Always press thanks if you use someone's rom
Press thanks if you like someone's post
If you want to flash gapps get them from here.
There are different guides here in the General section
When posting a question, do it in the Q & A section and nowhere else
Always read the ROM thread before flashing a rom or asking the OP questions, if your question is not answered in the OP then you may ask your question
Remember to look at the bugs list
Look for keywords like UNSATBLE, BUGGY and BOOTLOOP. These things you don't want to flash

I don't doubt that thread will be useful for many people. thank you again
great post but also note that cm 10.1 has very good battery performance i'd say next to stock rom
good work, thats all what i needed.
Added kernel settings and which kernel to flash.

Well. You first build was good but then your second build just killed it. Always remember a rom is a zip not a rar. But yeah it was stable.
I desire a rom which is
bugfree
perfectly stable as stock
not draining battery
int2ext4 included
gapps included
no responding problems ( eg. app isn't responding)
UI isn't importantt for me. Battery, performance and stability are essential. That's why I will flash sense 2.1. Thanks to this guide I found the answer. And special thanks to @thehacka1 I think other developers should help him to improve this guide. Cuz, this is really useful and there is no guide for beginners like that.
When it comes to my question, I wonder Can I use int2ext4 with sense 2.1?

You can use it but you need to flash an OC kernel first that has EXT4 support.

it doesn't has to be ext4. I mean it doesn't matter, I can use data2sd or somethin else. I just need to expand my internal app memory.
Even so, do I have to flash kernel OC?
It's actually good that you posted that......but IMHO people should test kernels,governers and I/O scheduler themselves rather than being told
The only things people should suggest are 1.Tell them to read about governers and I/O schedulers,2.Understand a bit about them and 3.See which combination works for them
If they do not want all this,they don't need to change anything.....the stock(preset) options would be just fine for them

Honestly, you're right. But some people (like me) can't find any time to read and understand all of these issues. I wish I had time to understand how Android OS works and develop somethin useful for everyone in forum but I can't unfortunately. So, that's why a guide like that will be useful in any time. At least, thanks to guide like this, I can find easily what I'm searching for... Last thing I want to say that doesn't mean I'm lazy. Actually, I have really high involvement in this kind of issues. But, I'm working and it makes me really exhausted when I get back to home.
King regards,
Uncle.
If you have time to download and flash roms,then you definetely have time to read all about them....enough said

I have read a lot and still reading. But you know, these things may have effect on learning. Firstly you want, then you flash easily, and then you wonder how to build your rom or improve existing one. So, that's why I found useful that kind of topics. It wasn't offensive.
thanks for this

No offences to Quarx and the wonderful cyanogen mod team.After 3 months (a month on stable cm7 release),I realised that cm7 is very unprofessional in spite of the fact that it runs faster and is lighter than stock rom.However after rolling back to stock rom last night I found it is much productive and stable than cyanogen.Just rooted 3.4.3 -36 and removed certain unnecessary stock apps.And I have started liking moto widgets.Waiting for cm9.Will update info about battery experience in stock rom.Till now no difference in stock and cm7.
Well.... Custom rom's aren't for everyone! I'm a flashing junkie myself I switch roms atleast once a week and still can't ever decide what I like the most. I like stock froyo roms for some reasons. In fact just today I went to stock nordic froyo, did a little theming with UOT kitchen. It's nice that everything just works but I swear I get way more random screen freezes and even an occasional full blown freeze and/or reboots with stock rom's. I think I'm going back to CM7 or who knows what starting tomorrow because Moto's software just plain sucks in terms of stability if you ask me. You win some and you lose some I guess. CM7 has it's qwerks and problems but even so, I think it's better than stock. Just my $0.02
EDIT: On a side note. I do TRULY believe that ALL the problems we have with our custom rom's are 100% due to a locked bootloader meaning we are stuck with MOTO's crap ass kernel's and we can't build and compile our own custom kernel
I have the opposite opinion: like u I use CM7 since about 3 month, updating to latest nightly regularly. I went back to stock froyo for some testing.
Only 1 day, but it has felt much longer: blur is very annoying, less customization, much less smooth and less reactive interface. No powerwidgets in pulldown menu, no 1% battery. I was extremely happy to go back to cm7.
Btw, using 111204 nightly and it is really really good, could be cm7 final for me now that the effort has gone to cm9. I will stay on this nightly as long as it need for CM9 to mature (supporting green lens may take a while...) Thanks Quarx and Epsylon for this great rom
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
@root_toor ... can you list down the unwanted softwares of stock rom 2.2.2
Even I find the stock rom more stable... specially camera green lens is better reactive in stock rom.
waiting for cm9.i like it.
I agree about power control in notification but 1% battery? Check this out.

Besides what about the connected player (better than most players with sap manager ).More importantly call and messaging app is way better than that of cm7.And I use a blurless stock rom.

To start with I removed DLNA, Homesync, Quickoffice,File manager by quickoffice,and many other system apks.After rooting my phone I installed Bomb that task from market for app killing.And yes for 1% battery use circle battery widget.Either use root explorer or a freeware called Super Manager.
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk
its all just a matter of preference really! I understand why people like stock, but like I said I swear it's not as stable IMO. I get lots of unexplained freezes. I do like connected music player too but I always just install it on the custom roms I use anyway, I have a white themed CMP I use. I'm gonna try the 111204 nightly like gkai suggests because honestly I haven't used it yet so I will give it a go. But I can guarantee I will still bounce around from rom to rom like I always do
After using cm7 for months - I switched back to stock ROM - Tried MIUI - found it better (professional) than cm7.Although CM7 is a hacker's paradise, I still found the need to install 2.3.4 GB (Stock ROM) since I wanted to experience 2.6.32.9 GB kernel.
Conclusion
CM7 - Fastest
MIUI - Rich UI and iPHONISH feel (missed the app drawer as of the latest MIUI version)
STOCK FROYO - By far the most stable ROM.If you updated with latest FROYO, you can root your phone with either OneClickRoot 1.7 or 2.3 and above.
STOCK GB - Yet to try (however beware you cannot downgrade to STOCK FROYO,CM7 OR MIUI since they are based on FROYO kernel 2.6.32.9 while this runs on GB kernel 2.6.32.9)
CM7.1.0 and MIUI failed for me in regular use... it hungged when you actually need phone to talk. it hung when u actually need to take pic... the auto focus also fails sometimes in night.
with stock roms , its more stable but just a bit slow...
so if you root and overclock the stock to 1 GHz , and remove useless softwares, it makes the defy best phone.
Unless we have a kernel of GB, its no point to install a GB with a kernel of a froyo.
Just a bit of input from me as I was a regular user of CM7 from RC0 onwards.
CM7 was quite a bit faster (than when I previously had a leaked froyo installed) & has some great features as standard but I also had one big issue that I couldn't solve & that was the well known Android OS/Suspend bug. It would frequently continue to use CPU & not go into deep sleep correctly maybe several times per day.
So in the end I decided to install the official UK froyo 2.2.2 sbf & to this I have:
rooted,
installed 2nd init,
overlcocked to 1000mhz & undervolted slightly,
flashed the 1% battery mod so the Defy now reports in 1% steps even in the Moto battery menu,
also deblurred the stock UK ROM using Walters deblur mod.
All this has resulted in a very stable ROM with no lag, freezing or rebooting (non of which I ever had on CM7 either I have to add) however I also now don't have the Suspend bug on the froyo build so I'm happy.
Also I use widgetsoid for the toggles in the pull down menu & Launcher Pro & have also frozen some Moto things that I don't need.
So to summarise I did really like CM7 & if it were not for the issue I had then would still be using it & getting ready for CM9 (which I may still try at a later date) but the official froyo with the extra things I've added is more than up to the job for me.
I have used stock FroYo, cm7, Miui, wiui and ms2ginger and for me the best one is ms2ginger .. battery life as compared to stock FroYo and cm7 , it is much better in ms2ginger

Well I've been working since past 12 hours (from scratch) customizing GB 2.3.4-134_DFP-10_2 (Debluring + modding BlurHome.apk launcher for appearance).And I must say , this is the best stock ROM I've come across so far.

Apparently 2.3.4-134_DFP-10_2 overclocks MB525 between ~800 - 1000MHz
Thanks again for links but the stock ROM I'm testing has no errors.All I need now is on how to go about editing BlurHome.apk in GB.
@root_toor , I had the same question of using BlurHome.apk in GB like CM7.1
But as they are on different framework, you cant install the BlurHome.apk excep on stock GB of Motorola.
and what exactly are you trying with 2.3.4-134_DFP-10_2?

Well the following
Debluring
Trying to customize stock Launcher
Adding Reboot option in Power Button Tray
Optimization for decent performance (battery)
Last resort is Launcher PRO (not ADW - very unstable)
Basically I'm working on one of the most stable GB ROM for MB525 with least "custom mods"
I won't be adding 720p mod as the stock camera rom is giving me better image output than FROYO and CM7.
So mostly a minimalist ROM (1% custom , 99% Stock) for stability.
skeevy420 may ported this rom, because it seems very stable and would be fantastic for all users of the Motorola Bravo
you are very good for ported rom

I tried once a few weeks ago, but gave up after 15 minutes of zip editing and a bad flash....didn't bother any further cause Quarx started droppin CM9\7 releases the second I had installed CM7.
I may try again (with actual effort this time), but I've been looking at porting the DroidX Miui v4 and am more interested in doing that to be honest.
I also attempted patchrom with Quarx's latest CM9, but didn't get anywhere. Doubt I will either since I don't know smali code, or anything more than basic bash scripts.
Not at all related, but thinking about it, I will post a zip containing the DroidX cpu governors this evening, they work great with CM9. My bad battery (CM9 05\12) has been with using the stock conservative setting. Using stock settings with DroidX BOOSTEDassV2 governor gave the best battery I've had (all roms) with CM9 05\09 and 05\06.
Hey folks,
I've been looking to overclock my Xperia Arc (runnin ICS 4.0.4, build: 4.1.B.0.587) and I'm quite the noob at this so I'm looking for answers and advice. From what I gather, I need to install a kernel and I hear there are many options. One of the most popular one seem to be DooMKernel. I'm thinking about using that and I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520654
Now, my question is, is that the most updated thread? Is there a newer updated DooMKernel lying around (that is newer than v5)? It's fairly difficult to navigate the forums and so I have a hard time finding all the right posts.
My next question is, if I were to install CyanogenMod, does it install a new kernel that allows me to overclock or is OS separate from the kernel?
And also, feel free to recommend me any other kernels. Are they all pretty much the same or do some of them have particular enhancements?
Thanks in advance!

1. The Doomkernel you linked have problem with some battery drainage, thanks to not using newest kernel sources (if I remember correctly?) and also that Doomlord haven't updated it at a long time so. Look for some other kernels before that one becomes stable enough!
2. The Cyanogenmod ROM requires it own specially developed kernel which can be found in the zip package of each initial release (CM7 - CM9 - CM10) and it have to be flashed through Fastboot before you are flashing the ROM in recovery. Follow instructions on Cyanogenmod homepage for each installation on your prefered device for more info!
3. If you're on Gingerbread, use Doomlord v22, for some amazing performance / battery and a lot of functions (underclocking, undervolting and some other stuff).
If you're on ICS, use latest Lupus kernel (version 8) - that kernel is a beast in every way and you'll definitely like it, it's stable enough to satisfy even you!
It's some difference between the kernels in speed, stability and performance / smoothness / battery life / functions, yes. You have to check them out yourself to find your own favourite.
Hope my answers helped you!

Yup, CM kernels was created with overclocking and extended performance in mind, hence why Cyanogenmod ROMs are known with expanding the possibilities to some crazy ass performance and level boost (I have only tried CM7 and using it was like driving an Ferrari at 220 km/hour, later versions should be equal in their own specific ways).
Hope you got some useful answer on your question, dude!

I can recommend Sega Rush v3 kernel to use with your currrent or any .587 based custom rom, it can if you so wished be used up to 2ghz,( as could Doomlords V5 ), but be warned and advised to tread carefull with overclocking as you can cause permanent heat damage to, and even kill your phone if you overcook it.
I think the links to Doomlords v5 are down at the moment he is not active with it, so you may struggle to find doomkernel v5 to download, however if you look to the credits in the latest release of Sega v3, you will see him mentioned, take that as a good omen.
PS there are plenty of kernels to choose from, but I would say try to use one that is currently under active development, so that any upgrades / improvements are kept constant.
I can't comment on Cyanogenmods never tried any, but they seem popular enough, and look pretty well supported.You really are spoilt for choice, have fun
Hello everyone, I just moved from Motorola atrix to this incredible device,rooted it and unlocked the boot loader and now I need a good ROM.I tried the BuglessBeast and now i'm on AOKP .
Can someone suggest me a good ROM for it's performance and stability (stock look if it's possible) and a good kernel for it? I'm not asking for "the best ROM", I would just like some suggestions from you.

Can someone suggest me a good ROM for it's performance and stability (stock look if it's possible) and a good kernel for it? I'm not asking for "the best ROM", I would just like some suggestions from you.

is there a 4.2 rom that i can overclock and undervolt my phone?
i have the verizon nexus and installed the pure android 4.2 rom. it runs great. but i cant overclock it and one of my friends has a aokp rom i believe that is still 4.1 but he can overclock it to like 1.6 or so. i would love to know if there is a clean stock-ish rom that doesnt have any fancy launcher or anything that i could overclock to beat him but still have 4.2. any help is great but if there isnt one its no prob.

If all your research tells you that the rom controls oc, then it's not for you, stay away from it for now.

using dax fnv aosp and its the shiz... and stock 4.2 was fast for me
You can use stock 4.2 ,just flash a custom kernel which is what actually allows the over clocking. Franco kernel is good. Then download a CPU control app from the play store.

The pacman ROM is pretty decent, you should go with a 4.1.X ROM because Google did an ehh job with 4.2 test away though, some ROMs are much different than they look
Sparx639
Isn't the pacman ROM in alpha stage?? That means it's not stable :-/

Minco ROM. Pure AOSP with franco kernel. Im also new to GN but I like this one quite much
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I'm running CodenameAndroids 3.6 rom, and I haven't found one I like better yet. Tons of customization options. Love the navigation bar options and options to add and change swipe up shortcuts. I'm running Franco's kernel too, but haven't tried oc'ing. Not much of a gamer, so I don't feel the need.
What kind of franco's kernel? I mean experimental or stable? Any kind of oc?(cpu and gpu)
I'm running Milestone 6 stable. I'm pretty sure u can OC but to what IDK.
Now im using BuglessBeast and franco's stable kernel...i don't know if i'm crazy but some games are still laggy:-/ like Dungeon Hunter 3. What's the probleeem ?!?
I am in a similar position and didn't want to start another thread.
I am getting a used GNex tonight...
My start point is a Nexus S with CM10 nightlies and the Marmite kernel. Having Used CM7, CM9 and CM10 on 2 different devices, my temptation is to go for CM10 again. I am not a heavy user and don't play games on a phone, but the most important think to me is battery life (with smoothness a close second of course)..
Can someone please recommend me a battery saving kernel with CM10?
Or another good ROM / kernel combo?
TIA.
Sorry - I realise that I just killed a panda
Can anybody tell me if faux's kernels are OK?

I want to do the same thing
I want my stock ROM but with a kernel that provides good battery life and also want to root for some applications to work
But I am relatively new to nexus
Can you please provide me any link for this because I haven't found any thread which is just about changing kernel
All of them gives you guidelines about flashing kernel with custom recovery

Hello,

I´m ready to flash after root, unlock bootloader and install recovery.
So my question is here in the jungle of rom`s:
Witch rom is in the moment the best usefull and completly work with all stuff in the a100?
I read some threads but for me its very difficult to find out.
Please help.

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.

Just read the instructions, don't flash stock roms, and you'll be fine. Enjoy it.:beer:

GREAT!!!!!
So all in all __ awesome.
Thanks again!
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...

Everybody talk about the gm_2.0 Kernel.
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.
I dont no was happend...

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.

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..
