Ok I need to put a new firmware on my phone again so what's the best rom to use. I just need stability, good battery, and compatibility for programs. I don't need AD2P or push email features. Good speed and memory will be good. Any suggestions?
Preferrably a 3.3 rom or above.
This question has been asked hundreds of times and answered in hundreds of threads,this Forum is full of these questions and answers.The has been advised time and again to read,seek search before posting,if you wud have cared to read through the threads,I'm sure you wud have found your answer,no need to start a new thread for this.
there are many new wm6 roms avaiable,with all the applications and even 'Vanilla' to cook the rom according to your needs,plz check around.
Yes, what zabardast_1 said.

I'm new here and i first got the tilt, and i was talking to an ATT employer and he was telling me about the xda developers. so i check it out and so far its awesome but the problem is...I cant firgure out how to do this. so CAN anyone guide me step to step by doing the tilt personalization??? i would greatly appericated it and is it free?...
Hi and welcome.
This site is completely free as is all the ROMs and programs created (with the exception of a few unlockers).
It depends what type of personalisation your after...
Replacing the ATT ROM with a "Cooked" ROM?
-Read the wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Kaiser for more information and the Sticky posts.
Installing new Applications?
-Just download them, copy to your device and install them.
Changing the theme?
-Each theme varies and has usually has dependecies on other software. All I can say is Read.
My best advice is to read other peoples guide's and other peoples common questions and things will fall into place.

thanks for answer.... but why to close the thread? cant I create a thread? isnt it about roms?
Yes, everyone is entitled to create a new thread if they have a query which has not been asked before, they have searched and can not find answer or no threads exist about a particular rom, app etc already.
We would have preferred it if your query was asked in a PDAVIET rom thread where people using those roms could answer you more accurately, this is why someone has asked for this thread to be closed.
It is for this reason that I am closing this thread, and I would ask you to ask your query within a PDAVIET rom thread

This is heart breaking. I was looking forward for your ROM.
Hello Fam! I have a:
Samsung Captivate SGH I897
Currently running :
Cognition, 2.1.7
I'm looking to Change ROM's and I have a couple questions.
1) What is the best Rom for Battery life that has some cool Graffix/annimations
2) Do I have to Flash my Phone back to Stock before I flash a new ROM?
3)I recently Flashed my phone to Darky's 8.1 Somehow i ended up with the I9000 version and it crashed/bricked my phone. I spent 3+ hours restoring a bricked phone. anyone know a fix or a i897 version of this rom??
I liked what I saw of Darky's 8.1 but I need a stable version or a Rom that is Similar.
All help/Suggestions are greatly appreciated

i think he intended to direct you to the second post in that thread (which must have fell under the 10% of that thread that you didn't read..sorry couldn't resist a friendly flame) as you are posting your question in the wrong part of the forum.
Rules for posting in Android Development
* If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
* It is NOT the place to post your question because it gets higher traffic, or because more experienced users frequent it. Doing this just annoys those who are working on the device, and drives them away. Developers don't want to wade through 20 threads of "Help me urgently" to find their threads for porting and fixing camera issues etc. Similarly, if a thread is designated as discussion for developers say, porting a camera fix, please do not post in there asking "When will it be ready?", "Can I flash this yet?" etc. This is both completely disrespectful to those working on the project (you evidently haven't read the important posts in the thread), and also is making it harder for developers to find comments from other developers or testers when required.
* Similarly, don't make loads of "Thanks for your work here" posts in an active development thread. It's just as annoying to developers as asking when something will be ready. If a ROM is complete, then go ahead and thank the developer if you wish, but don't go into threads for devs only, and interrupt it to post "thanks". It's basically spamming, and is treated as such.
* If you are posting in development, you should have read every sticky and notice there, and should be actively developing or helping in the development of something. Developing isn't installing a ROM, or using a tweak, it's creating a ROM or other hack or tweak. If you haven't read for several days before starting out on XDA, you are likely about to ask something already solved. I registered on XDA when I first wanted to post, and that was to join in a discussion on something. Sure, join up and ask a question, but read the information available in General and Q&A first, as your question will have been asked before. Search is your friend here, become familiar with it.
* Regarding when to post in development if you are not actually developing something, there is one occasion where it's acceptable. If you find a leak of a new ROM, which isn't already posted, and you verify it's legitimacy via either running it, or based on the source you obtained it from, then this is assisting in development, and should be posted in development. If you want to ask when a leak will be available use search first, then if not already in discussion, open a thread in general or Q&A.
* If you have a problem flashing a ROM, this is NOT related to development. It's up to you to determine if it is specific to a particular ROM, and post useful information in that developer's existing thread for the ROM. If it happens on more than one ROM, and isn't a known issue (remember you should read several times more words than you post), then find out what you are doing wrong. Check guides written by others, try to repeat the problem and see if it happens every time. Something needs to be reproducible to be fixed effectively.
* Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
* If you make a clear, concise, yet detailed post, you will find help forthcoming, and should get the problem sorted very quickly. If someone suggests you try something, report back on what happened, did it work etc. Then, next time someone has this issue and searches, they will find this and have a verified and tested solution.
* So remember... before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can't answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

You should probably familiarize yourself with this as well or your setting yourself up for endless flaming and frustration:
REF] New to XDA? Questions about flashing ROMs? Please read this before posting!
Lately I have seen so many "what rom is best for my first flash" or "Help me decide what rom is best for me" threads and they are POINTLESS! Granted there are an abundance of new and old custom roms, everyone has different experiences and opinions on what rom is best.
So... NOOBS:
If you want to know what rom is best for YOU do the following:
- Go to the Android Development Section and read through different [ROM] threads to see what features will work best for you. I have also found it useful to read through the last couple of pages to see what other users think about the current version of the rom.
- If you don't know what certain terms in the rom thread mean or affect (ie. kernel, modem, OC/UV, Gps tweaks) locate the search bar in the top right corner of the page or browse through this page
- Once you have decided what rom you want to try out, you need to learn how to flash the rom. Most of the Developers post instructions but they can be confusing to some of the less experienced flashers. nbs11 has posted a thread about how to do this here and Connexion2005 was nice enough to make videos of the general steps: Flashing back to stock using odin3 , 3 Part video series for flashing roms: video 1 , video 2 , video 3
- Now that you know how to choose and flash a rom just try out different roms until you find one that you like and gives you all the features you are looking for.
- If you find the theme of a certain rom ugly or obnoxious, head over to the Captivate themes and apps section and look through different [THEME] threads until you find one that you like. Make sure the theme is compatible with the rom you have just flashed or are planning to flash.
- If you accidentally brick your phone, read How to unbrick the captivate or if that doesn't work, Unbrick the captivate for only $0.99
-Some useful links other members have posted:
One-Click Root - root your captivate in one click!
Build #1010 or above flash back to stock
My hopes of this thread are to save the Captivate general section from becoming a section full of useless threads. So if you are new, please use these steps and do the research to find a Rom that is right for YOU!
Cheers,
Alex
*EDIT* As it seems swedishcancerboi is having a hard time using the search function, here are some simple tips to make your searching easier. If you think there is already a thread that has been created containing the information you desire, under "Search by keyword", try changing the drop down box to "Search titles only". Also, try changing the "sort results by" drop down box to "Relevancy". If that still doesn't work do a google search of "xda (whatever you are looking for)" without the quotes.

Nike - Greek word for victory. Also known as a popular brand of shoes.
Nike... Just do it...
Battery life?
Paragon for me on my particular phone
Graphics/animations? Dunno, not into too much eye candy, but there are themes galore available
I always ODIN to stock before I flash a ROM (Haven't tried the AIO yet, but looks interesting)
As for the Darky issue. Flash back to stock and start over.
You have to expect redirection when you're posting in the wrong forum.

Thank you Capitan Obvious.
I recommend Serendipidity with the Suckerpunch kernal. I've gotten great battery life with that combo also you can some cool animations to add to Serendipidity from the Serendipidity website. And when changing between completely different roms I usaully flash back to stock and do a master reset with odin
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
i recommend you build a jig or buy one online just in case, since you want to use custom rom.

Duck and grind HighSun, duck and grind.
If you're still in the look-see stage as far as ROMs, there are a few that are well worth trying.
Paragon (my fav)
Serendipity
di11i's
Firebird (under new management so to speak)
That's my order of excellence but don't take my word for it. Flash what you like from reading whats offered and have fun. Follow the steps listed in each and you shouldn't have any issues. While not necessary to ODIN to stock, it's a good idea to get used to it in case you bork your phone and need to exchange it.
The best battery life i have gotten is with darky's 9.2 rom.
