Modacos FR 18 with 05 baseband
I dont think that there are any other roms in stable ^^ All other are variants

Noticed it doesn't have the LG launcher. Is that on purpose since no one likes it ?
any good rom with it ?

Modaco is clearly the most stable rom but it's not better than cm7 for the battery I find .... and cm7 is much more smoother
So it's up to you, test both

The LG launcher can be included in modaco roms if using the online kitchen. In fact, all original lg content can be included, or you can choose to leave out all LG content.
The reason why the lg launcher is not included in prebake is probalby because it's not flexible at all. LauncherPro and ADWLauncher offers much more functionality.
Stock ROM: Android 2.2.2. No good compared to modaco and cyanogenmod
Modaco: android 2.2.2. Offers all original functionality, performance tweaks and bug fixes. But, it is based on original ROM and bugs appearing randomly from nowhere is hard to remove, so many users still have reboot issues.
CM7: Android 2.3.4. Completely custom, built on generic android release. offers no lg functionality, but you don't need that. Even though it's no official stable release yet, it is very stable. I have been running it for some time now, and only problems I have had is the sound suddenly disappearing and I have to reboot. Much good functionality. After 1d 12h I am still on 50% battery. moderate usage.
I would highly recommend CM7, even on your everyday phone.

CM7: no fm radio...

wow, I hadn't noticed that
Maybe it's possible to port lg stock fm radio application..

no sry its not possible to port the stock radio app ... stock rom is froyo and cm7 is gingerbread ... and for gingerbread there is no support for the fm radio atm. I think we have to wait till lg releases official gingerbread (and we should pray that this is not like the bastardized gingerbread version of tmobile for g2x)

What is the best rom Now?

I used now Eclair and is good but i need change.
I need stable, fast and good Rom.
What can u do "offer"?
Try different ROM's and decide for yourself
i have tried just about every ROM on this forum and I always go back to HTCDevil's "fast and light ROM v2.0.
it is fast, light and stable. i would like to switch to one of the "froyo hacked" ROMs, but i need my video recorder ans more stability than the 2 i have tried provide for now (motofrenzy and bastardized).

Anything eclair based if you want stable, Personally I've had no massive issues with Bastardized and having Froyo is nice anyway. Sense ROMs are a bit slower due to the lack of RAM/Swap but still usable but not as a daily driver
im using cyanogenmod 6 from kabaldan, everything works fine and its really stable
I would try "CyanogenMod" works really great.
But more battery consumption.
App2sd @ FAT32 is awesome
fg
i instaled cyan and i have many fc ;/
On fast and light rom fast consumtion battery.
And i return too EclairMod.

Telus Lite V4.1
CM 6 stopped all reboot issues from official Motocrap ROM for me.
I have a Milestone in Argentina and i flashed it with Telus 3.11 which in my opinion is for now the best stable ROM. You have to manual install the 3D Gallery as it does not come wit this ROM.
From Telus you can choose to flash CM6 (i think) which in my opinion is still buggy and lot of user report problems with that or this.
Other possibility is than Telus Light 4.x or the upcoming 5.x, but includes heavy overclock.
I my self stay with Telus 3.11, de installed all the system/app crap, some boot manipulations, root, and a own theme based on Buggless Evolution. I am happy with it. No overlock, etc. as i am not a guy who plays a lot of cpu intensive games.
Perhaps i am going to improving the java engine.
Resume: Flash Telus 3.11 and from there you go.
I'm happy with eclair v3a for now. Battery life and lack of viable camera keep me away from the Froyo roms. In my opinion regardless of what else might be packed inside, the eclair rom has some crap cleaned out of it, has superuser and overclocking and a some other bells or whistles and it all works.
Good enough for me till someone cracks the kernal or we get a real milestone froyo.
Regards, PK
P.S. I've heard this lament for other roms, why does ADW or power launcher seem jerky at higher clock speeds?
xslntx's telus lite rom v4 is amazingly fast and stable. A hybrid rom based on euro and telus. Governed over/under clocking so battery life is good, but power is there when needed. V5 is coming out which promises to speed things up even more.

at least majority of the framework + libs are original droid libs, and is as official as it can get..
but i guess camera was always an issue, but this is soon past tence, when we get a good kernel, i might just fix a final motofrenzy before it gets officially released, as cm6 is not official, but is based on custom compiles based off android opensource.
In my opinion, the best ROM nowadays is the Eclair-based EclairMOD v3B by 89luca89. Fast and stable, never a reboot! Froyo based ROMs are faster just running benchmarks, in everyday use I think Eclair is still a step forward..

Eclair is actually a step backwards... i am fortunate to have tested a 2.1 on Galaxy S which really shows why you would chose froyo compared to a 2.1 rom.
Imagine opening 5 different apps, having 2 flash videos running in different windows and a game as well..
handling is so much so faster which is memory + froyo handling on top.
secondly for milestone, you get the option to move apps (non-rooted) to a sdcard, which is thanks to froyo too...
with all the extra froyo adds in already existing semi-2.2 roms, you simply meant patience is gold, but for some, that is already found.. i have been very happy with milestone running motofrenzy and motosense , and note: no reboots!!
but lacks camera, but i could care less, as ms camera is not worth much anyways...
with the early release of froyo 2.2 kernel, im sure you will upgrade very soon...
either official or to a custom cmX rom.
Froyo is surely much better as specs, but for everyday use, 2.2 ROMs have more disavantages than avantages, starting from the camera, battery life, mobile overheating, random reboot.. I'm speaking on my personal experience, maybe I was just unlucky!
Overall speed is true, is better on Froyo, but overall I still prefer Eclair. I've tried all 2.2 roms here and no one works absolutely fine on my Milestone, as better roms will come out, I'll surely upgrade to 2.2.. but now, Eclair for me!

Which Gingerbread for my Nexus - Please?

Hi,
i am new to Nexus One Android Development and i am a bit confused.
There are so many Gingerbread ROMs out there and i cannot decide.
I firstly wanted to install MoDaCos Sense Build but that is buggy for me - so now i want Gingerbread on my N1.
Unfortunately there are CM7 based/stock ones/google AOSP's/GRI40s/2.3.2's/2.2.3's/pure google mods/OFIICIALS/Devs onlys etc. - Versions!
Can anyone be so kind to filtrate that a bit?
This shouldn't be a "Best GB-BUILD"-Thread - I just want a clean and stable Gingerbread running with my purchased launcherpro plus!
I don't want it bleading edge, but fast and stable!
Which one of the thousands out there should i run on my N1?
Hi bunnahabhain,
I have tried various gingerbread roms, most have had some annoying bugs like hspda freezing, random FCs. The one that works the best for me is the CM7 RC2 which is the equivalent of Gingerbread 2.3.3. It is yet to bug out on me and it runs very smooth. In fact i havent had to restart the phone since I installed the rom. Surprisingly it also takes less space on the phone then most roms I've tried.
Hope this helps. It is bleeding edge but it is very smooth and hasn't been buggy at all for me.
I am using the stock gignerbread, with launcher pro plus/setcpu and automatic task killer.
It runs very well, no crashes, no bugs, it's fast, I sugest you do the same.
Add a poll to thread and list available options for people to vote?
DONE - 8 by number
just chose the most favorite ones
Stock/Official/Vanilla are the same. Just what the names suggest really.
Cyanogenmod is by far the most widely used custom ROM. Many of the others are based off this, with various alterations being made to them. Close to Stock appearance but feature filled and very fast. Version 7 is in development now and two of the polled ROMS are in fact from this development.
There have been two Release Candidates which are considered 'stable', and there are ongoing 'Nightly' builds, (experimental), but which are really just a daily evolution of the development. As it stands the latest Nightly builds are very stable, very fast and well worth trying.

Trackball wake?

No trackball wake on any Gingerbread ROMs derived from stock. No modification has been found to enable it.
On the other hand, they don't suffer from wonks like CM7 and any CM7-based ROM.
I was loving stock gingerbread but switched over to cm7 after missing trackball wake
MIUI gets Gingerbread on Friday, that will be my choice.
I am on pure googlemod now!
But don't think just that i chose a ROM that nobody voted for would leave this POLL ad absurdum
It seems that the base of that ROM is CM7-NIGHTLY, which is the thing to go for if you want more speed in the ROM with a custom kernel (otherwise no camera).
Because i wanted the stock GB style i firstly chose GEOs stock deodexed one, but switched after i got the mentioned camera probs.
Now, with redstars custom kernel it is the fastest ROM i have ever used on my N1 (42 Mflops in Linpack)
Unfortunately it is still miles away from this insane ROM for the HD2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918899
You can't imagine how fast and stable that ROM is, really!
Since it is open source the N1 DEVs could look into the code couldn't they?
sense or nothing
I am on the Geo build but I am waiting for a Sense UI gingerbread release. I am following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995445 but hoping Evil D can bring his magic to a GingerSense build
I've been using CM7 RC 2 after having been using enom's roms for froyo. It is pretty damn stable and lets you use trackball wake which lots of gingerbread roms don't support.

what is the diffrence between MIUI and CM7 which is best and stable.

what is the diffrence between MIUI and CM7 which is best and stable, need your opinion.
From what I've seen, MIUI is organized like on the lines of iPhone UIs. Settings are all clubbed and sub-grouped into one place, you can go into select sub-group settings and so on. I find the UI controls very iPhonish.
MIUI comes with some good features like in-built Call Recorder, quick SMS reply from notifications.
One major difference between MIUI and CM7 is that MIUI by design does not have a App Drawer concept. All your apps in MIUI will show up on your phone screens.
Overall, both CM7 and MIUI have development builds available, you can use them and play around. Both will have some stable versions in case you are looking to get a stable ROM and not play around much.
I personally find MIUI very beautiful, but at the same time CM7 gives you more control on your phone.
Hope this helps you decide. I'd recommend you personally experience MIUI once for yourself.
Can you please give a link of OFFICIAL MIUI rom for o2x p990 and instruction to install it.. can i flash MIUI over CM7?
What do you mean official? I've used MIUI ROMs from this community:
http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/2-2-10-gb-ics.15342/
Its got a link for the latest 2.2.10 version for O2X.
You will preferably need a full factory wipe, you can also try Moon101's ROM (link below) from the development thread. Thats a trimmed down MIUI version that draws out good parts from CM7 plus his thread has good set of instructions as well.

2.2.10 is stable and battery life is pretty decent. If you need good battery life along with good performance, try the EtaNa kernel by vadonka. Search in the development forums
So i need to revert back to stock GB 2.3.4 before flashing MIUI?
or I can flash MIUI over CM7?
Sorry im quite confused
Nope you dont need to revert to stock. Do a facyory wipe and flash MIUI. Good luck. Dont forget to take a backup before you do the full wipe.

Best STOCK like rom?

I've went back to latest official ROM, 2.3.3 JVH NEE, released in Sweden by Samsung because I got tired to always hunt for the perfekt kernel and the perfect ROM.
Now I know why I started looking for other ROM's.. It's lags when playing musik via Spotify while you surf the net, slow over all respons in UI, I know it's slow due to RFS and I've converted to EXT4, but I'm not fully satisfied.
I want a as near STOCK ROM att possible and stable as original (Yes, the latest Swedish ROM, 2.3.3 JVH, is the most stable ROM I've used and got the best battery time, even tho it's slow.).
Does you know of any ROM that meet these requirements? I would like to not feel the difference if I rebooted my phone yesterday or two weeks ago.

I would recommend you to try SAUROM JVU ROM. It's almost close to stock with huge loads of modifications integrated.
Yes, I would also go for SAUROM if it comes for a close to stock GB ROM. One of the benefits it has over many other Samsung-based ROMs is the integration of JKAY Mod that allows you to customize status bar buttons and power menu. Plus in the newest version it has some handy quick link buttons in the notification drawer.
Thank you guys, I'll take a look at Saurom.
___SAUROM___
I've also tried so many diff ROMs.
All I really wanted is nice working stock ROM.
Tried so many. Did not try SAUROM, cause this is a new one, but tried many SAUROM like. I mean ROMS, that claim that they are just like the stock, but better.
CM was fine, but it was also very complicated. And had some bugs.
Really stupid. I could not sync with google e.g.
Finally I ended up with MIUI. Surprisingly for myself.
Clean, nice, fast, easy swype customization and install.
Here are some screens:
http://db.tt/0gh5gInG
MIUI+Go launcher
It works fast, no lags, no freezes, nothing bad.
GSM works fine, GPS is super fast and accurate, battery is OK.
Finally I don't need to tweak my phone any more.

MIUI & Cyanogen are the real custom ROMS. All the rest are stock-based with tweaks and customization. Saurom is highly customizable compared to the other stock based. But if this doesn't matter to you, you can try Darky's latest ROM from his website. I currently use MIUI Rom, you can try the MINTBerry edition (Which I use ), available on the forum. And I would go for Saurom regarding stock based. Good Luck.

Nightly build still updated, real AOSP, less lag than stock, massive possibilities for customizations.
I've had JVH for some time, later JVU, now latest CM7.2 RC0 with CM7 kernel.
Changed to JVO modem (siky_dude has links to many flashable modems) to fix Hello-Hello-Bug. Better than JVK modem.
T9 dialer, better UI translation than JVU even for Norwegian, native keyboard support nor. + swe. + +
Don't flash each nightly (stress battery time?) but check changelog for interesting fixes. Most of the fixes are not even notable in every day use. Flashing new nightly WILL keep ALL settings, market apps, sms, data... Just clear cache/dalvik/prior flashing, fix permission post flashing.
BTW: ALL ROMs have some lag

MIUI Mintberry 2.2.17 Close to perfection. No... definitely not. It is perfect.
I've been using the MIUI mintberry for a few weeks and it's so frickin' amazing. First impression was "oh this is beautiful" then i noticed it was fast. Few days passed and the battery life seemed great. I did some benchmarks and surprised by the results.
I would highly recommend for you to try that one!

I'd go for DarkyRom... It worked pretty well for me, bur then I discovered MIUI Roms and they are much better!!
DarkyRom isnt a fully custom Rom. Its a stock samsung edited. There are only 2 custom gb roms. MIUI and Cyanogenmod7 and they run much faster ofcourse. Im a CM fan either way

Starting point for my P990

Hi, i'm new here, and i got a P990 Optimus Dual 2 days ago. Yesterday morning i flashed CWM and then the rom Nova-HD.
I tried it for a while and i like it, kinda smooth etc... but it have so many bugs and i can't use this ROM for my daily Usage (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1607238 same problems as this fellow).
I want to try them all, but i need a starting point to rely on (and i want ICS too). So my point is: Could you advice me on a ROM/KERNEL/OTHER STUFF that is stable (not so much, i can live with bugs), does not drain battery in 5 hours, and is reliable?
I'm not so new here (i had a liquid/mini/metal and a SGS+) but when i look at the changelogs and Release logs i really don't know what to look at...
I highly recommend Temasek's Unofficial CM7 ROM.
Rock solid for stability. Only known bug is the arbitrary charging SOD that some people are getting.

If you want a stable ICS rom, you have to wait till LG official release ICS.
If you want a stable rom, use temasek`s unofficial CM7 build or
Chuck Norris Edition V.1.2, (it`s based on temasek`s rom, with additional tweaks and customization options).
The official LG V20Q/V20R, is also a good stock gingerbread rom.
(of course there will be other very good roms, but I don`t have tried other roms actually)
Uhm, i don't really know if i can go back from ICS... ya, it is bugged and all, but it is also so ****ing beautiful *_* i don't really mind bugs, i need stability only on SMS and calls... i can fix internet and the rest with a reboot =|
So the question is, which is the most stable ICS CM9 ROM/KERNEL?
EDIT: I am now installing harsch kernel
I really liked the combo of nova hd and harsh kernel. However I missed being able to record video, so it was back to stock gingerbread for me...
Yeah, i like it too. I flashed harsh yesterday and i don't have any bugs (except for videos and wi-fi tethering [not tested]) This combo is quite nice ^^
