What 2.1 ROM to use? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have used CM 5.0.7 but I found a few bugs, 1 is where my widgets disappear and I cant put them on the homescreen.
I am currently using Cannon complete eclair, but it is not letting me install swype.
Which of the new 2.1 ROMS are the best currently?

[Q] Eclair vs Froyo ROM

Hi guys, i'm going to flash a new rom to my G1 soon, but before i do that, what would be faster? An Eclair rom or a Froyo rom? Thanks for your help (and sorry for the stupid question)!
It really depends on the rom for me i stick with donut roms and trick them out with the latest ADW and a theme and maybe beautiful widgets donut is the fastest and best with battery life but as far as eclair vs froyo
Eclair roms are down the drain so try biffmod
USe the thank button
From my experiences, Eclair is definitely faster for me than Froyo. If you want to try out an Eclair ROM, I would suggest SuperE. It's definitely the fastest Eclair ROM I have found.
However, just like the poster above me, I would recommend Donut ROMs. I just went back to Donut ROMs, and I love the speed it gives me. I think I'll be sticking with Donut ROMs until I upgrade my phone.
I would say froyo. Try biffmod 2.1 with 2708 port, this thing is as fast as any eclair or donut rom for that matter. 15mb radio/spl hack does wonders.

Yeah I agree Froyo is bound to be faster since it isn't a ported ROM. Most or all of 2.1 ROMs are based off of CM5.0.8, which was a port from the Nexus One. When google released the AOSP source for Froyo, they included the G1 drivers natively. They are much more stable than the eclair roms.
But, like others said earlier, donut is always going to be faster on the g1, but less apps are supported.

[Q] I need help with changing rom [milestone]

until now i used the last ver of MIUI on my milestone
with GOT 2.2.1
the MIUI Started to be slower and i want to change rom,
i thought to try FroyoMod but then i saw the original 2.2 by Motorola, and then the CM7 with 2.3.
so i dont know which one is better, and which one i should try..
the cm7 and the original 2.2 have bugs? crashes?
which rom is faster?
thank you
I will prefer shadow mode aosp 2.3.2 b3...160h very fast very smooth and no single reboot
I think you should try some ROM's. I will prefer Ice&Fire CM7, but someone else will prefer Miui, etc. Just try them out and decide your own
Orginal ROM is realy slow but its working no crashes or sth, CM 7 is nice but has some bugs (sometimes sms are not comming to u). Now im using orginal sonft and w8 till CM 7 will be more stable...

[Q] A few quick questions before going 2.3.3

Hey guys, I'm currently on Darky's 9.3 (Froyo) and I'd like to try some Gingerbread . I was hoping I could clear a few things up first.
Is THIS the stock 2.3.3 rom? Can someone help me understand the XXJVA/B/K, or are they just newer revisions (B being the newest)? Being on Froyo, I should flash XWJVB NEE or XEE - correct? Will I have to remove any current lagfixes (I dont believe I applied it...but how can I check?)
Will there be incompatiblities for things like LauncherPro? Other apps?
I've read about a few of third party ROM's running 2.3.3 who are discussing camera app not working?
How do I save my Asphalt 5 savegame data? I've worked very hard to get to where I am, I'd like to be able to continue this progress
Lastly - which is your suggestion for 2.3.3? Stock, Simply Honey, Darky's 10.0 RC, MIUI, etc? OR, should I wait a little for it to mature...
Thanks for reading

+1 same questions
Gingerbread/2.3.3 not released yet .
Newer versions.
All flash lagfix must be removed .
Will there be incompatiblities for things like LauncherPro? Other apps?
Might be it depends upon the app most are 2.3.3 compatible .
I've read about a few of third party ROM's running 2.3.3 who are discussing camera app not working?
yes in custom roms . 2.3.3 is to all intents and purposes still a beta .
Any rom bar darkys but i would wait for the devs to get full working themes etc .
jje
Darky has a very nice GB-ROM (v10RC5) and Hamsterbread is also a good ROM. So just try some different ROMs and take your favorite. I've also tried Simply Honey but I didn't like the design...
Juwe's 4.1, based on JVB, is also a verry good gingerbread custom rom.

What is the best rom that's. Run stable on G1 nowadays?

I need help with my kids G1.
What is the best rom that's. Run stable on G1 nowadays?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
you could try froyo by laszlo 5.2,cos-ds,gingeryoshi etc..
For my ol G1 donut or froyo roms were the best for it, things got a little iffy when it was using Gingerbread or even a sense rom . Donut is the fastest though hands down, even w/o JIT.
I have tried a great number of roms and I can tell you that the best one is the PadronFroyo, the only problem is that I don't know if the italian is the only language, you can google it!
You can try SuperAosp. It is stable and fast.
If you want to run Froyo then its Froyo by Laszlo. And for Gingerbread Ginger yoshi or ezGingerbread by ezTerry..
Try Cyanogen ROM, really good one
now i'm trying froyo by laszlo. i think it's good. don't use padron froyo, because this version no supports bluetooth and screen rotation

Froyo by laszlo is the most stable froyo rom. Make sure to use EXT4 partition with it.
froyo yoshi, froyo by laszlo and ads_magpie are good.

[Q] Stable GM ROM? Opinions?

Hello,
I am looking for a stable GM Rom with everything working for a friends Galaxy Mini.
I will not be home for several months so he will not be able to modify smth as she doesn't know how to flash Roms etc.
Thanks in advance.
The Gxy Mini is on Stock 2.1. Anything special i should know before flashing?
I believe you first have to upgrade to Gingerbread before flashing custom roms. Also, install clockworkmod recovery via Odin before flashing custom roms.
That's about it really.
A pretty nice rom that sticks close to default is Chocobread. (Current emanom is too buggy right now, although v6 is in the making).
. Installed Stock 2.3.6 then Creed's Rev. 1.3. Interesting that the contacts didn't sync from 2.1. Then, (didn't checked on PC before) i found out that i have no phone contacts on the Google account although i synced them on the old 2.1 before wipe.
Creeds ROM feels laggy than stock 2.3.6 somtimes. I overclocked it to 710 mHz. Angry Birds Space doesn't load past the "Space birds" loading screen.
I told her to test it for a few days but i consider other options?
mebitek's cm7 rc 1 or kitten's cm7 base on mebitek's deodexed or MORe v3
i would recommend Stock ROM!
