I'd say its all about personal preference mate, if you want a rom that's quick, with no bugs etc then yeah Darky's is the rom for you. But if you want a ported rom I.e HTC sense, 2.3.4 from the nexus s etc then that can be done but as I said, its all about personal preference as roms are being released nearly every days and each with different capabilities and different features. I'm running Cyanogenmod 7.1 RC1 with Glitch kernel, overclocked to 1.44ghz and it works a treat hope this helps bud

Well... i've been trying the galnet miui and it works wonderfully. Fast, simple, beautiful and easy to install.
Just my opinion... but go and have a look... many are satisfied.
Good luck!

If u are new to flashing stuff, stick with darkky.. its simple, elegant and fast but if u want advanced feature like theming on the go, try miui...(ps: installing miui may not be as simple as darkky) Happy flashing..

Thanks for all advice,ill check them out later,darkys rom looks good,whats this about the htc port,how much is ported? Sense features?

You have to root your device first bud

I'm current running Cyanogenmod 7 Nightly #41 and its fast and responsive, but you mentioned your wife likes things simple, so i'd suggest keeping it stock, at least until she says that it is running too slow. Then i'd go for Darky, nice and simple and very few or no bugs.

Or try Juwe's ROM, I like it more than Darky 10.1.

Did debugging mode not work then bud?? Try this. First off, go into settings, wireless and network, USB, then tick Samsung Kies. Then connect your phone to your computer/laptop, wait a few moments, then load Samsung Kies, once loaded, at the top....select tools, then select re-install drivers. This will then install your device drivers again. Keep your phone connected whilst its installing your drivers. Let me know how it goes

MIUI or F1 SGSII (with Galaxian Kernel)

Sgs big bench mark scres using
BASED FIRWARE 2.3.4
KERNEL GALAXIAN V4
ROM CriskeloROM Gingerbread v75
This combo is fast, stable, and by far the best settup for Galaxy S, 3000+ Quadrant scores, neat and highly customisable, SET CPU to 1.4 overclock and watch you phone kick anal!
Darkys is now so defunked, months ago! Was good, but now, you got your undies cought around your ankle if using darkys, time to get with the prgram, if you want speed, try the combo as above, after many many many different combos, finally found the master combo (-:

Why not CM7? It's based on 2.3.4 and you can overclock/undervolt too.

Juwes and GingerCriskelo works very fine.
not a direct response to your question but: I've tested a few jvp roms incl. Juwe's v5 release (and I honestly admire Juwe for his work) however insanity 10 (which is CM based) provides a much smoother user experience. give it a try....
I am waiting on Simply Honey 3.8. Tried a few of the others but so far i have been extremely pleased with SH. Been with it since v3.2. New one is gonna be released at 3.30pm today!

[Q] I9000 GalaxySENSE and GalaxyCOMB ROMs for Captivate?

I have gotten I9000 ROMs to install on my Cappy before, but now with both of Kenia1234's AMAZING GalaxySENSE/COMB ROMs for the I9000 I get an assert error(Status 7) when I try to flash it in CWM. Why is this? Any solutions would be Awesome!
I honestly dont know anytime about the romsb our the error. Just wondering if it has to do with version of cwm, ie v3 vs v2?

I think you have to have a special kernel for sense/honeycomb for it to work, also are you sure they are CWM installable and which CWM they are compatible with
also if no special kernel is needed make sure you have an I9000 kernel since that is what they are for
Im using a reoriented kernel, specifically for the I9000 Sense port, made to make it work on the Captivate. I'm no noob, not saying anyone is, this just really got my attention cuz I love sense and wanna try Honeycomb out for awhile!

you will be the only one who can choose your Fastest/Smoothest ROM cause peoples have different taste on their roms..
my personal preference is
F1 Innovation HD 7.0
Semaphore 2.4
and
MyICS rom
my preference is
F1 Innovation HD 7.0 + Semaphore 2.4
or
GingerReal2 R2.0.0 + Semaphore 2.4 + Thunderbolt script
My favourite: F1 powered by Semaphore.
Sometimes I'm switching to Supersonic with Galaxian.

Camera is fixed. If you don't know how to push changes, you should wait for a few more days to get new build that has fixes.

Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda premium
which MIUI?
[ROM][GSM][ALPHA]MIUI ICS 2.1.6 Based on CM9 ??
If this is the one, well, it is an alpha ROM. So don't expect too much.
And hasn't been updated since Jan 2012.
The dev said don't use it as a daily rom.
That truly burst my bubble, cause once I downloaded it I feel in love with the way the entire interface looked and felt. All I can say is the development had something cooking there, I wish he would have maxed it out. It could have been really one of the best kernels out.. Just my option. Thanks for the feedback, I truly appreciate all of you that help us non knowing newbies out.. And I say that from the heart. Is there anything that comes close to it out..?? I'm using CM9'S build #31, it's good but the fonts are small and I miss the notification page that sides down. Can you please be kind enuff (not saying you haven't thus far) to put me one to the HOTTEST build out, we'll which ever you think is the best out for daily use for my GT-P1000. Thanks again, and muck blessings to you and yours.

I'm really not sure what you mean. The link I posted takes you the ICS ROM for P1000 device.
May be I'm misunderstanding your question.
Hi luchiano,
If you are on cm9, there isn't a build 31.
That is ICS AOKP that has that build number.
You won't have slides down transparent notification like in gingerbread, sorry can't help there.
But font size can be increased easily in settings- display-font size.

[Quick Question!] Stablest ROM for the Galaxy Ace?

Hey guys, need a quick answer!
My friend handed over his Galaxy Ace to me for a day and wants a nice and FAST ROM. Could you please help me specifying the ROM which is the stablest and the fastest as well. Waiting for your quick reply! I'm heading from the galaxy nexus forums so I have no idea.
[ROM] [04.05.12] CyanogenMod7.2 RC1 by vo-1 MIRACLE Edition V4 [...SIMPLY THE BEST!]

If you want the most stable ROM, you should stick with stock ROM. As far as I try, it has significant less FC than other ROMs.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA
I think Sedan Class V2.5 is Stablest ROM for the Galaxy Ace
Been using miracle v4 for weeks.
Although it is a little bit too barebone at first, but you can just install what you want later on.
And it is the fastest rom i've ever use. Stuff like random reboot doesn't happened. However, I don't find it as the best rom when it comes to battery life.

If u are a heavy internet user then go for <CM7.2 > It has great performance as well as battery life..
According to me don't go for <CM9> its oudated n not updated from a long time..its great though..
I would prefer <CM10.1> (4.2.1)..It has great performance ..n battery life depends on your usage..
For more info PM me..
Edit: Check here (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Xperiencecyanogen/395619180456847) Two great roms are released by Xperiance.Cyanogen..
If you want speed and battery life, don't go for cm9 or cm10.
You need MIUI or cm7.
