[Q] What is the best rom to use? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys im currently using 2.2.1 Froyo XWJS8 its quite quick but freezes too much.
I just wanted to know of experience which is the fastest rom to use which uses little battery power. I was looking at Darkys rom but theres too many out there to choose from. I just want something really stable and quick all round especially the browser.
Any comments would be great.
cheers

Try Juwe11 rom, positive reviews so far. Just make sure you have the 3 button download / recovery mode before flashing.

what do you mean? darky's resurrection is a odin rom it is based on 9.2 it is easy to use (it will wipe your device btw.) because you almost can't do it wrong and then you can make an easy 9.5 upgrade
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk

Might give it a whirl and see how they both go, i use my phone a lot and notice the problems about 2 hours after use.

Brilliant odin is the way to go, have you got a link for the 9.2 version mate? will update when i get home.
cheers
chris

just search all of darky's thread you will find resurrection edition
if you have freezes you should try it with a lagfix then (voodoo ext4 in darky)

ok will give it a go, ill try Darkys as i dont really want any buggy roms i cant be dealing with that,although upgrading doesnt take long its a pain when you got 2 kids running around lol. XWJS8 is crap :/

there is no definition of a best rom. there are many roms which are available for the sgs based on the different bases. the latest being js8. for me docs rom and darkys rom are the 2 best roms available out there,but there is not much of a differnce in between them..itz like 19-20. bt i have been using darkys rom for a while and i must say the latest v 9.5 is pretty stable and the best going on at this point of time. i recomend u to use dat rom.itz the fastets out there!

Thanks mate, i like the gingerbread theme he has added also and the unlock screen looks good. wander if theres a circle battery mod for it.

I will give you an easy way to check a rom .
These pages and Q& A pages scroll through few dozen of the initial posts note the rom that broke the OPs phone after reading about twenty or thirty posts you will find one name crops up time after time after time . Coincidence or just a bad rom i leave that up to you .
jje

Hah iv read so many and so many different things and found a few that are good, its just i dont want to find out by installing all of them.

The one you are thinking of has multiple broke my phone /help posts .
Either rushed bad roms or hundreds of numptys use that rom for some reason .
Your choice .

Care to give more details? Saying it's crap isn't entirely helpful.
Please go deeper into the crap, so to speak.
YMMV, but it's the best I've used.

Darkyy/Doc/Serendipty/Ultimate/Tricky/Juwe/SweetHoney- Which ROM suits You

Hi Guys,
This is not a ROM/Kernal or some tweaks.
Just purely discussing and sharing some reviews abt current ROM's.
I hope this thread will help for some dummies, or for some who required Stable or Fater & Smoother or much great look ROM's.
This is purely my personal Experiance.. Im not commenting on any one's ROM just sharing few thoughts with you guys..
Correct me if i was wrong, and sorry if i unknowingly hurts anybody's feeling.
First of all thanks to our SGS ROM Developers where they are working nites for latest ROM's updated tweaks or kernals.. simply million thanks to them.. else we should have only SAM's deafult firmware.
Coming to my point,i purchased my SGS I9000 n dec 2010.
Previously i dont have any idea of ROM neither XDA nor anything.
When i googled for info on SGS then i found link to DARKYROM, there i got links to XDA.
FOA i would like to thak Darky as i started to flash Custom ROM after i read the whole story posted on his Darky 9.2 stable version, he included almost every thing like which a new guy can easily understand.
9.2 Darky ROM really rocks. Then i moved to DOC's thread,
oh man here u can cook ur own stuff... u ll get here any ROM/CSC/MODEM... this is purely awesome like a supermarket .
Then Juwe's/ultimate & Sweet honey.. these guys are nite raiders always go for newest and experiantal but they ll never let you down.
last but not least Serendity ROM(currently where my journey paused for a while), superb ROM with ultimate fast.
SO my obs are
darky:- if you want Stable Release and want to stay for long time this is best ROM i get.
DOC:- here u c all ROM's and all varieties till last date, you will really confuse which ROM/CSC/Modem version u should go,
I found Serendity is my choice where u will get excellent Faster smoother and Stable and less battery drain if you are with JPY Modem. I mean without any tweaks or some bla .. bla... Just simply install and sit back and enjoy Perfect ROM for daily use.
Once again im telling tht im not Judging any ROM here, just want to Share some views of mine on various ROM's.
2.3.2 is out but lot of FC's going currently no stable yet, i suggest wait for some Darky's/DOC's Stable Release.
I found (ROM) GingerCriskelo for 2.3.2 is bit smoother and less FC's (if anybody want to try 2.3.2).
Same for me + yes serendipity a big discover but it's not late!....2.3.2 will coming.....!!!!

Guys i just flashed Insanity 0.6.7, way gud.. one should try.. just like Tricky very lite but look wise impressed with gud tweaks..
I have been on darky's for a little bit now (since early v8) and its been really, really nice. but now i seem to have cought the bug, and i just want to flash all the different roms out there and see whats out there. tomorrow I'm off to the land of cm7, then maybe miuiand then some of the roms here will be my next stops, i guess i'll report back with my findings
I am on Juwe 1.9 and it works great. Just waiting to see battery life, everything else I am satisfied.
Also when I had a HTC Desire, I was on MUIU and its was defenatly best custom ROM.

Cm7. stupid answer to a stupid question.
In this moment i use JVU and is stable! I recomend that!
You will flash a JVwhatever, notice that they cannot compete with AOSP roms like CM7 or MIUI and flash back.
I recommend, in aim of saving time, to stay on MIUI.

Thats why i wrote that its a stupid question. Cause such questions tends to get people back to the same old fight between cm7/miui/samsung based roms.
i think you won't find the "best" jvz rom. they are all different and have all some problems, but thats android
btw i think DoctorzRom and S.U.R.F.A.C.E. are very stable and good

Simplicity is the best Gingerbread ROM ever for our Sammy..
The last release (yesterday) is 2.1 based on JVZ..cool!
But BLN doesn't seem to work for sms..any suggestions?
10 answers, and ten different advice.
Some about CM7, forgeting to remember you how bad battery life is,
some about their own rom ( I let you judge if their opinions are really relevant ^_^ )
And others about random roms.
So I won't give you any advice, except that you have to try them all and find the one that fits your needs.
You could trust some developpers more than some others, but it's not so easy as many "old and known" developpers do not behave, to my mind, as real gentleman, and troll a lot (and i'm not only talking about $omator ...)
Good luck, and welcome back to the jungle of random quality rom

you have been here longer than i am, so i would think that you are supposed to read and use the search functions of this forum than just wait up for answers from other people that may not come at all.
if you are afraid to root, go no further. if you take the risk, then go all the way and test all the available roms and decide which one suits your taste. it's your phone, it's your risk.... do not blame anyone if something bad happens, because if somebody answers your question "which one would you recommend" and somebody does recommend a specific rom, and you BRICKED your phone in the process... you will curse whoever gave you that suggestion.
I found Rocket Rom v22 used with franco v6 kernel very fast and stable. I got my best benchmark scores using this setup.
Now on Midnote ICS and while very smooth it doesn't have the same benchmark scores. (Not that they mean much as it feels quicker in daily use).
To sync FB pics with contacts install FB app then go to settings/accounts and sync, add FB account. It will ask you what to sync eg all contacts etc

its the best in my opinion for your criteria. though based on GB 2.3.6, it has lot of added features and works almost completely hassle free.
i have tried most versions of MIUI, CM 7/9/10 and chockobread.
Now, people will have different opinions based on their experience. So I'd recommend to try out the ROM after reading the comments in the respective thread, which suits your needs.

No ROM is perfect, if the ROM only have 1 bug, i would call it perfect. Search ROM that match with your criteria. If you want Super battery life, try Stock based Custom ROM, if you want a heavy modification try up CM7 based, if you want latest updates of your Mini try CM10 or AOKP JB Build.
If you already tried all of them, then... buy a new phone

[Q] Most stable and fast current ROM

Yes, I know that this subject has been beaten to death, but ONE more time:
Can anyone recommend a STABLE and FAST ROM for Galaxy Note?
I am totally disappointed with the JB stock ROMs in terms of speed. I've also been trying CM9 and CM10 at various stages, byt IMO CM is nowadays buggy as hell... gone are the good old days when Cyanogen was still in charge(?)
I tried PA some time ago, but it was a bit buggy too. I'm a bit curious about it however... maybe it's more stable now? I'd also prefer decent support for the stylus.
Alliance ROM maybe..but in terms of this questions!!people's mind are not identical . this is like asking which girl is the Best one for a permanent
girlfriend!!!be a man .go out there and explore the ROMs and from there u might be able to see for urself ^

Totally interested too!
I'm now on latest MIUI however my wife's Iphone 4S is still faster, smoother and stable...
And those who tell 'go and try' - i've already tried 4 custom roms and 3 custom kernels and i'm sick and tired of restoring data every time after those tries.
So if you can really suggest a good, fast and stable custom rom for daily use - please do.

Sorry, dude, was even unable to install this ROM - tried twice but no luck.
Setup started normally 2 times and then quit suddenly - kicked out of CWM.
It's so weird that they have the only option of ROM install via ROM Customizer (no CWM zip support).
Ended up with clean install of the Ultimate JB v5.2 ROM - will try and see how it goes.

have you tried here? - http://galaxynote.roms-db.com/
excellent selection of quality ROMs for you to try, depending on your preference / needs. there are no bad or "buggy" ROMs imho, it's just a matter of personal preference. CM10.1 with Dynamic screen mode, forced GPU and all animations switched off is perfect for me. But that's only my opinion
