Hey all i wanted to kno what to install to have a smooth, stable & fast phone cause atm im running the Froyo rom from samsung but the phone feels laggy.
Any suggestions?
Links would be usefull
Thx in advance

try Voodoo, seeems to be pretty stable http://project-voodoo.org/
My two cent:
Froyo "from samsung" is a pre-release beta, if you want a stable version, install the official rom for your device (the one available trough kies) and wait for the REAL froyo release.
Don't think they change.much.
The main reason what for some icon did disappear or did not installed when upgrade.
The best lagfix i know right now its z4mod.
Its fast and lagfree.
I also have super optimized kernel.
But you need to know how to flash with odin.

With froyo being out I'm tempted to flash my JM8 device to the new froyo... However I'm wondering if froyo is actually faster, more stable and has an improved GPS.
Should I flash to JM9 or to froyo?
Other than that, which lag fixes should I use and tweakers?
there's so many roms out that I've lost overview and don't really know what's the best and most stable.
Please post questions in the Q&A forum.
well I'm using doc v7 rom with no rfs advanced ext4 lagfix. I m having litraly no lag... Evrythin's working super smooth. I'm using adw instead of touchwiz

I'm not just talking about fast, but also wonder which one works best in terms of features such as GPS
Only way to know for sure is to test it yourself, I find JPM to be ok but I'm also using one of them optimized 341meg roms as stock froyo only lets you see a max of 300megs. Also there seems to be a few more stupid startup processes running which you can turn off with startup manager (from market). The thing is that its this new kernel i'm using that gives all the speed.
i found JPA is faster than JPO. I have tested on 2 diffrent phone.
JM9 is probably the best Eclair ROM. And with FroYo just being officially released the latest ROM is JPO.
It's really up to you what to do at the end of the day.
hello fellow!
i read all relevant post regarding what i'm about to asking but i'm not convinced.
please XDA i'm going to upgrade my SGS gt i9000 on gingerbread
&
i want a custom rom with all lagfix,fast phone & better battery timing.
the main feature i'm interested in is!
i want the moving dock(i think that what it called)where we find 4 button of phone,contact,message,app, on the front homescreen with 7 pages.
in this dock all installed app can be seen at a time by moving it seperately on the homescreen.
there is no stable gingerbread rom atm
What you are looking dor is a scrolling wallpaper just look it up and its not invluded in any rom, we don't have gingerbread on this phone yet. Darky and Dics rom are pretty much the most used rom botb are really easy to configure, darky uses an app from the market and Docs is a web based kitchen. Lagfixes come in kernels, both darky and Doc let you choose the one you want Harcore Speddmode and Supercurio's Voodoo Kernel are the most used but don't let you OC your phone.

zimmbi & GOTFrogqc thank you for your reply.
GOTFrogqc; your reply was really helpfull.
so tell me if there is no gingerbread for sgs gt i9000.then which os should i get for my phone.i want gingerbread please.....
try darky
from my experience, darky rom resemble Gingerbread the most. Compare to other ROM, most additional "features" of Darky ROM were the modifications everywhere (Theme/Icon/Config) to make it resemble as much as possible to the Nexus Ging! I remember a moment Darky changed the boot animation to the one of Nexus S and made it as "feature", then he changed the fingerprint of the phone config to 2.3 and made me beleive that my SGS was Ginger LOL! but it's all over! he's listen to his user, and constantly improve his rom right now. I always think the last stable version of Darky ROM is one of the best rom, and I recommend it for someone who like the taste of Ginger (just theme). And I'm looking forward to taste the official Darky ROM 9.3 with JS5.
As for now, I recommend latest Kitchen DOC/Stef + latest SpeedMod 250Hz + R64 theme (plus Go Laucher Ex + AppOrganizer if you have 313 apps as mine ^^!). No need to lagfix (because there is no more lag to fix ^^) except if you want a higer quandrant (which means nothing).
I do NOT recommend any OC-UV kernel. It fry my phone, give me headache to config the Voltage, the smothness improvement often is not noticiable, but the battery usually drain faster. I think its the reason why hardcore never add OC-UV feature to his kernel (Yes, I think he is very capable to do that)
Thanks for Doc Stef Hardcore R64... to make my phone beautiful and fast.
i would personally recommend darkys rom. I only took the move to install a custom just over a month ago and now my phone is working the way it should be - smooth and fast. if its your first time i would recommend installing his 9.2 resurrection rom - there is an easy to follow guide on how to install it from the main page

+1 for darkys
I've heard a lot of good things about Darky.
I personally use seeArm's Custom ROM because it uses the JL2 modem which I need for the 850Mhz band. I may eventually try to flash with Darky and then write the JL2 modem on top of it, but that's a bit more risky so i'll try it later when i have more time.
Rom Kitchin build your own rom .

Hi all i just flashed my galaxy s to xwjv1 Gingerbread.
i would like to install /voodo/speedmod/CWM kernal
I have trtied with the latest speeedmod odbin package but after install it wont boot! have to flash pda again!
How can i get a hacked kernal on this rom?
You can't run a froyo kernel on gingerbread. Look for supercurio's hacking gingerbread kernel for fun thread if you want a custom kernel.
Until samsung releases gingerbread sources, probably close to official release, true custom kernels won't be possible.
For now, i'd stick with js froyo roms.

Thanks Got it rooted thats all i need anyways as Ginderbread runs good without lagfix! Even bat life is good with standerd modem!!!
Cant wait for the offical rom will make the phone even faster!
Hey there guys,
I've had my Galaxy S for about a month now and thinking that its about time to get rid of 2.1 and go for the big 2.2.1 jump.
I just want a stable, fast and reliable version that I can get a speed fix installed on and I want battery percentage.
With so many ROMs out there can someone reccomend a good basic stable ROM to update to? And as a newbie is there a easy walk through that I can follow.
I've that there is a couple of gingerbread releases out there. Are any of them official stable versions for the Galaxy S?

Js8 + rom (most people go for darky 9.5)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
From my own experience I can recommend Criskelo Rom - stable, reliable, fast.
But really, you should choose on your own because there are some differences
People would call me boring, but I like stock JS8 + Voodoo Kernel
I like Doc's JS8 because of the kitchen and they always work flawless and are super fast. This way i get what i want the CSC/Modem for my region and only the apps i want. I used only two ROM's Darky and Doc and i prefer Doc due to customization and actually find it much faster then DArky even though Darky's has a higher Quadrant score. Main reason for me not to use Darky is im in Canada and the ROM is more or less geared for europe.
I have never had slowness/lag problems, everything is quick and snappy and this is with lagfix off. Using Speedmod K13c with recommend tweaks on and no lagfix.
When official 2.3 comes out from samsung that is the only time i will update as its PREFECT right now.
+1 for Doc's ROM.
I like that you can customize it the way you want it, choosing the modem, csc, kernel, apps, etc. So you can just install the ROM from CWM and that's it, all working in one go.
I have Doc's JS8 with Damian's Kernel with all ext2, and it works great, IMO, smooth, no lags ever, great battery life. All I ever wanted.
HOW? You'll need CWM to install it (You'll need to flash a kernel with it using Odin if your phone doesn't have it yet.). Just go to romkitchen.org and customize your own ROM with all you want/need, download the generated zip file into your SD Card and install it. Simple as that.
Using
Rom: - Doc V11.1 - ZSJPK,
CSC: - XEU
Kernel: - Damian v1.3 beta 3 (EXT 2)
Modem: - ZSJPG
Undervolt: - 25mv (not stable for anything higher......my phone issue)
Overclock: - 1.280 Ghz
Stable, fast and smooth. Battery life is good as well.
Are you already rooted? If not SuperOneClick works well with stock 2.2.
Next, the easiest kernel to flash as a firsttimer using Odin is definetly Speedmod. Hardcore's instructions are clear and exact. This will give you Clockwork Mod.
Finally, build yourself a ROM in Doc's Kitchen. You can control exactly what elements are installed and the walk throughs linked to the main Kitchen thread make it dead simple.
After you have used one of Doc's ROMs for awhile, if you wish to you can try one of the more baroque custom ROMs like Darky's.

Another + for the Rom Kitchen and big selling point is that the forum is not littered with posts saying this rom broke my phone .

I for one really like Serendipity 6.3! It´s stable, fast and goodlooking! Its GB themed btw.
I am new to sgs (bought yesterday ), yesterday I have installed darky's rom v10 rc5.3.
I have read that on sgs u have to change the kernel to apply an undervolting, so i was looking for a right kernel to do this...but it seems that there are no stable kernels compatible with gingerbread with the uv capabilities, is that true?
thanks
One needs to ask Darky about his rom .
Remember Gingerbread is BETA so far .
jje
thank you, perhaps i'll go back to 2.2.1
keep on ginger
Gingerbread is a more elaborate rom, in general it works much better than any froyo rom, not to mention the battery usage. I was using gingerbread stock beta 2.3.3, and from yesterday on, gingerbread 2.3.3 ColdMod.
Yesterday I went back to 2.2.1 (darky 9.5) and I didn't see any great difference with 2.3.3 (just the browsing experience while loading pages), the main reason for this going back is trying undervolting kernel and also that for the moment there's not italian swype (that i much appreciate). Anyway thanx for the advice
Have you a problem of battery drain?
