try his ROM at time of this post go for v8.0 and upgrade to v8.1 no-wipe from there. Its more speedy than the stock samsung rom without any lag fixes.
Ofcourse there's no best rom, just find one that fits your needs
I'm thinking the bathroom.

hard to say which is the best. all roms are great.
if you are asking which are popular, i vote to doc's rom and darky's rom
bedroom and xxjpy stock with voodoo

To be honest, you shouldn't have ditched the evo 4G in favor of this, my friend. Because such crappy software and no CM or AOSP experience make us frustrated.

I dont agree with u m8
this phone that u have is one of the finest in the world,,,, by buying it u joined a 10 million other people
there is nothing in ur previous phone exceeds this one. having said that, the gps sensor in this device is crap comparing with others. many intellectual devs tried to solve its issues,with no complete success (hardware issues),,,,other than this u can enjoy customising it completely
have a look on the devs section and c how many roms and devs has been developing are working on it.
I agree that the default os is laggy,,,, but this phone is blessed with plenty of devs.
if and only if the gps is better it could outsell the Ithing
with time, ull c that u made a nice choice

Yeah I know how many devs are working with it and I didn't mean "default" OS in any way. Seriously, popular roms these day (Doc's and Darky's) can't even beat CM-enabled phone like N1 or Desire in term of performance/smoothness.
But you're right, only time will tell.

Hey guys,
Some of you may know me from my HCDR.ROM
I have decided it is time for me to give up development for the HTC Tattoo. A few months ago I began doing a bit of dev work for the HTC Wildfire and recently got together enough from donations to buy a HTC Wildfire and get rid of my Tattoo. I was going to continue development but I am working on CyanogenMod for Wildfire at the moment and it's taking up a lot of my time, which is why HCDR.ROM v2 never got to you guys.
My decision has been influenced by the recent release of Dexter_nib's ROM. He has successfully done what I didn't have time to do, and his work is looking very promising so I suggest you give it a go
As my final act of development for this phone, I'm in talks with iVendor and we're trying to get the camera going using the libcamera2 hack, which I will work on whenever I get time to do so.
Thank you all for your support while I was developing, this was a great community to get me started. If you get a Wildfire in the future or are generally interested in what I've been up to, head over to the Wildfire forums.
Sad to leave you guys but I don't have much of a choice.
Have a good day,
Jacob

Sad to say goodbye, Jacob! I've tested almost all the ROMs available and due to the camera problem on 2.0+ your HCDR seems to be the most stable one! I'm using it right now. Well, good luck, man! Thank you for everything you've done!
Awww! Dats such a sad thing... wil miss u a lot Jacob! Urs is da best 1.6 Rom in da forum... Dats da only 1.6 ROM I use. Currently using Dexter's ROM. It's very nice. Jacob, even I have decided to wait just for one more week, if the camera on da froyo won't work, I wil buy wildfire... the only thing Dar is stopping me is dat I have heard a lot abt the bad resolution of wildfire. How is it per it exp? How better is it than tattoo? Thanks so much for ur grt ROM!

I think it's a lot better than Tattoo, the screen is a lot better looking. It has more contrast and a higher brightness.
Sorry to hear that... A lot of brain-drain in the Tattoo community....
I wish you the best!
Thank you very much. You have contributed to make our Tattoo experience much better. As many other users, I've been toying with 2.2's, and I agree that so far Dexter's is very good (despite it's 1 week age!), but having a trouble-free ROM plus having a working camera drags me back to 1.6, meaning "the one and only 1.6 Tattoo ROM: HCDR!!".
It's conforting knowing that you intend to support the development to put to work the camera on 2.2.
Again, thank you very much, and maybe I'll keep following you on the Wildfire forum!.
Good luck, buddy!
So is it just me, or is there no thread with a poll on what people believe is the best rom out now? I've ben looking with no avail. This brings me to the question, does it not exist because we aren't allowed to have a poll like that, or am I the only one who is interested?
U find no thread because it is biased. Most of the rom's have there own pros and cons. so just close this thread

That's a negative way to look at things. Why is it that people in XDA are so quick to trash ideas or questions?.
It may be biased, but in the end EVERYONE has chosen a rom to have on their phone, so why not share the stats with everyone else? Might help some others decide which of the many ROMs to try out.
I found Tricky's essential rom to be the best regarding simplicity, battery life and performance. I like to manually install everything I will use, so that keeps the system lightweight. I only wish it had battery icon w/ percentage by default!
No "stock" option for the less adventurous?

lol, I guess that is how my mind works... didn't even consider that an option, lol. I don't even know how to edit the poll and add it .
Flawed poll
Rom Kitchin for instance is a multitude of build yourselves roms not a single build .

Darky's 9.4 + VooDoo 5.5.1 works great for me.
Using Darky 10 Final and waiting for CyanogenMod 7 Final
Darky 10 is good, cm7 is better if you can handle 12 hours of battery life... I'm on ultimate 8.2 right now and I have actually kept it on for over a week.... oh and don't forget about the goodness that is MIUI. Install that and its like a totally different phone.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
i've tried Darky's ROM up to 9.5, Doc's ROM & now on MIUI..i think, every ROM got it's own strength which is amazing given that the ppl that manufacture the phones can even give a decent update even after few months..
but..MIUI is totally different and cool to use! Even though the battery drain is visible, maybe need a couple of charge cycles to stabilize..all in all, it's refreshing n can keep me away frm flashing at least for few weeks (or till the next update..hehe)..
i think this is a good poll !!
if you can find out how to edit it, and adjust when new ROMs come out.
this could save a lot of people posting pointless threads about what ROM to choose and why.
they can see what the majority of people go for, and if we can write a little explanation of what ROM we chose and why, it could be beneficial
I chose MIUI - it has developed a hell of a lot in the past few weeks, all the main features work, there is updates weekly without fail, Very helpful team of devs and the ROM is super nice and is nothing like any other ROM out there !!
For a long time I was very happy with darky 8.x but lately I have been trying out almost all the roms in the poll and since a couple of weeks back I have been a extreamly happy user of MIUI.
Feels like it have brought new life to my sgs, the only downside is the battery time.
Insanity everytime, light fast...make it your own!

Really Loving miui but I am thinking I will go back to darky because I need video calling, plus more battery will be nice.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
thanks for the poll
MIUI is the one I like: very, very beautiful. Fast too, loving it! Battery isn't lasing very long, but I got that problem with others too. 7 hours tops.

Agreed.
Every pro in xda ban any idea or question except asked by pros.
Beginners and users are present in xda forum.
To the thread:
CM7&MIUI: Great but to hungry of battery.
Rom kitchen: Loads of option but no GB
Darky: Very smooth but a little hungry to battery.
Insanity: Simply Android. Plain.
MIUI -MCG v2.1 is the best ROM in town
GingerCriskelo v56 is the best
I am very happy with my SGM and with all the options available here and the great community around this device.
But as always, I'm looking ahead to the next Galaxy phone I will buy in a near future. Galaxy W caught my attention: is a very good device, 1,4 GHz, 512 MB, excellent display...!
But I got worried when I looked at that phone's topic here on XDA... They have nothing!!!!
They don't even have a CM7 port....
So I started to wonder: where squadzone, mebitek, parasmi, maclaw, and others great developers we have here will go from here?!?! We have golden devs here, guys! And I'm very worried about my future with custom ROMs on future devices....
That will depend on what device they will buy in the near future.. since they are still enjoying developing roms for our device, just enjoy every tiny bit of it..

just ensure that the device you will buy in future must be international version then there will be no shortage of devs
As far as I know, Galaxy W is a global version. I understand that it is a very "young" phone and I hope, at the time I bought one, it is more mature
Anyone knows where tj_style is developing?? For which device (if he is still developing)??
just pm him and ask

@OP how is the galaxy S3? And what happened to your Incredible S?
The s3 is amazing! I love the battery life over the inc s and somehow touchwiz feels alot lighter then even sense 4.
The usb port in my inc s died, as well as the sd card slot so there was not much i could do with it anymore:/ if i could id still be flashing roms onto it just for fun!
I've gotta say though even though there are less devs in this section, the sense of community and teamwork here is far better then in the samsung forums
Nice to hear that, but it is probably due to a fact that youre still new on the Samsung section... Enjoy your new beast, I've tried it few days ago and I was delighted!

Good bye!
What are your reasons for the change? Until now I didn't find anything what I needed and my Inc S it couldn't. Repair would be too expensive?
yeah it wouldn't have been worth it to repair, if it still worked my plan was to keep it for another year.
The s3 is very noticeably faster though and the screen size is really nice, overall everything just feels alot better thought out on the s3 then the incs
I'm still in love with my IncS
An upgrade should be nice...
I will of course upgrade even though IncS is such a wonderful phone.
great choice with S3!!
S3 sounds good enjoy it

I am currently on RocketRom JB v3 but since this will be the final version of RocketRom, I am looking for the next best ROM. So far I know all of the buzz is between Ultimate and AllianceRom.
So I just want a feel of what the community think and I will go with the one everyone think is best.
Go buy an iphone
I think this thread will probably either fall on deaf ears or you will get lots of comments about read both ROM's threads or try both and see what you prefer. You may also get helpful comments like the 1 above.

I understand this very well and this poll was never intended to be about which rom is best for me, this poll is all about everyone here helping me decide which one to try first by sharing their thoughts on which one they think best suited them.

Ultimate, it functions best to install as alliance relies on scripting and choices made throught an app.
For cleanest install thrn only possible for Ultimate as you can format system and data and install.

Hi joosh3.
I'm can't post request on your Ultimate N7000 XXLSC 5.1 thread, so can you consider adding Recent apps button on the notification panel, near Settings button.
Or someone send my request to joosh3, thanks.

You should make a summary of the results of the poll.
ultimate is the best TW rom so far ..nothing coms close to it ..ive tried most of the TW jb roms out there but i keep coming back to ultimate,no offense to the devs but my personal choice is ultimate
Ive tried em both, And both are extremely well crafted and run perfectly.
I wouldnt say one is better / worse than the other, they are equally as great in their own way.
The only advice I (as well as many others) can give is: Try them both ! test them for several days and see which performs better FOR YOU.
So these are the two roms that are currently popular huh? Thanks for helping to reduce my reading time. I'm surprised Ultimate is a bit popular than Alliance. But this is good to know.

Thanks for your input, I actually tried Alliance first but for some reason I couldn't get it to work, constant boot loop, spent hours trying different ways to get it work but no cigar. I am currently trying out Ultimate, I am rather happy with it. I will follow your advice and try alliance rom again but probably after a few weeks of using Ultimate.
Thanks to everyone who contributed into this, by the looks of it, both Ultimate and Alliance comes really close and it is almost split in the middle of what the community thinks.
don't compare any rom on this forum, every rom has a plus and minus, you want to know what is the best one? try it yourself, and what rom seems match for you, because if you ask people here of course they have a much reason for himself why he choose "that" rom.
Thanks.

And that is what I am after, what majority of the people think is the rom "they" like best. Maybe I shouldn't of worded it as Ultimate Vs Alliance but what I want to know is statistically which rom is most popular. If people actually read the thread they should know this is what I was after at the very beginning.
Look in the development sections and see which thread have the most replies / views, they are mainly the most popular
Some have issues with Alliance, I had some myself, frequent bootloops, sticking on GT-N7000 screen and so on, but with a bit of tinkering I fixed it.
Now im using Ultimate, and it satisfies my every need, So im sticking with it Its Fast, Stable, Smooth, Rarely gets laggy and is frequently updated which is a main USP for me, I like the fact that the Dev listens to the users and is always improving on it.
But as the rest say, just try them all.. There are some wicked AOSP ROMs out there too so dont focus all your attention on TW JB Leaks, Unless thats what you prefer ?
