Hi All,
Would love to know what you guys feel is the most stable rom for general everyday normal phone use? I like having apps on the sd but thats about my only needed feature?
Which one do you think runs the fastest, has best battery perfomance and doesn't bug/crash much?
Cheers chaps
best battery with [email protected]: 2.1 rom with link2sd (& stock with quarx kernel for oc?)
good battery with best performance with app2sd: 2.2.1 (i prefer Utopia)
good performance with app2sd & a lot features: 2.3.5 (i prefer Swiftdroid)
i'm currently using Utopia RC2 and its very fast & stable (4me faster & more stable than swiftdroid), but i'm limited to few roms due to my need of tun-support)
I am using utopia too (rc3) and it works great for me. Very stable, fast and with good performance at stock clocking. So its battery friendly too

+1 for Utopia.
miroslav_mm works very hard to improve his ROM. It started from the solid base of Swiftdroid's Littlebrother and just keeps getting better.
A great all-round performer.
Utopia, any doubt???
Swiftdroid. It's very stable to me, and i don't have to charge battery two times in a day (it holds for min 1.5 day)
I use Swiftdroid but I have the time to charge it. The battery level is very unstable, somewhat getting from 20% to 80% in a few seconds during charging. I just use it for the performance
I use AOSP V3. The battery is great, although in the latest release the performance is bad.

All roms are different its user choice .

I'm currently using it right now. Its pretty good. But now it has been updated to version 3.2. Might go flash it tomorrow.
im running the 3.2 version
installed it 2 days ago
seems fine to me..
I was using darky's for a long time but since hes taken a break i've been exploring other rom's. I've been on simple honey 3.1 for about two weeks and really like. I have been getting outstanding battery life. On average two days of pretty heavy use, with wifi on and email sync. Been quite happy with it. It had a few bugs such as black on black text but 3.2 has fix that.
I can tell after some weeks of simply honey 3.1 it has strong points against other roms and some little bugs (ex. text on black) that seems to be fixed in 3.2.
Currently i'm 3.2 but battery life in 3.1 was better than every original, that's for sure.
Bye
Thanks I notice that battary life in 3.2 maybe little bit lower than the regular anroid Rom but this is a very good Rom I haven't noticed any bugs yet
rom has very little effect on battery relative to the kernel: Simply Honey 3.2 has excellent battery life because it utilizes the GTO kernel
it's still an excellent Rom but what differentiates various Roms from one another regarding battery use is the kernel they use
Maybe darix can do a battery re-calibration and see how's the new battery life. Should be better than normal rom.

i'm on simpley honey 3.2 and my battery lasts for about 30 hours at avrage with everyday use (wi fi on and off, internet, music, videos etc.)
at first it didnt last over 12 hours no matter what after a few days it was fine.
hows the gps on dis rom?
Guys i use SwiftDroid ASIS but my battery is drained in like 12 hours if i let 3G turned on. Otherwise its still dead in 18 hours anyway. What is the best battery saving ROM in all ?
Airplane mode ROM.
just a joke... lol
i think that froyo is best on battery life.
There is basically no advice to extend battery life on the optimus without the additional expense of an extended battery.

The stock 2.1 ROM has the best battery life.

yeah mike made a 2.1 rom with bfs and all kinds of other stuff but it does not have root or jit
The best rom that has a great battery life is 2.1.
As our phone is getting older and older (I have it since 9/2010), also battery is getting weaker. So, I want to stick to a 2.1 ROM and want your advices. Besides battery performance, important for me are: stable wifi and fast gps lock. thx for reading : )
I forgot to mention: I want your advice on which 2.1 ROM I should use?
Yes, stock 2.1 Eclair is the absolute winner in terms of battery life. I remember I had 4 days with normal usage, good old times
yep using it now (well no really stock v20e light version by miro) watch 2 hrs of video nonstop still above 97

So is the ROM you are using, the best 2.1 ROM in your opinion? I was using greendroid for 3-4 days, great battery life, but I saw wifi disconnecting after some time and keep saying: obtaining address...
Did you use a 2.2 ROM coming close to the 2.1 in battery performance? (Only flash support is pushing me not to go back to 2.1)
Well in my experience any 2.3 ROM can last 2 days if overclock is under 700MHz, brightness about 50%, use 2G only when not going on internet etc. With 2.2 ROMs you can get even more battery life, and with 2.1 the most. It depend how much you need.
Project utopia is the most stable fastest 2.2 I have ever used very similar to 2.1
Now I can also highly recommend SDSL prefinal, now I'm on 50% battey after 3 days of use! (it just passed the 3day mark). All this with low-mid usage, so I think this is also awesome from a 2.3 rom!
And I use 122-806MHz with smartassv2 governor, so if you don't OC at all, you can reach even higher battery lifetime! I'm curious whether can I reach the magic 4 days of constant use on GB.
good luck to you maybe screen off set to 480-122 smartassv2
Hello guys
I was testing the MIUI but the autonomy is very very bad , but the rom is very amazing !
For you which is the best rom for best autonomy on the optimus 2x ?
Cyanogenmod or stock custom ... ?
What do you mean by autonomy?

Sorry I mean "battery life".
Latest kang with CM7, 2 days light use.

I've had best experience so far with the Flair GB v4 Revolution rom, gives me 2 days with some use, including listening to podcasts and chatting on yahoo. That is, with juicedefender installed. Juicedefender is really a basic necessity for good battery life.
Guys,
Check the Blazing Dragon 2.1a and the tweaks with 999,Juwe script and HP 9 with PP9lite...gives me 3days and 10hrs....with light use, a little wifi , some pics and music.....amazing perf but yeah...Juice Defender is a great app....life becomes such a fantastic thing with these kind of good apps...
Stock V20M gives me very good battery life.
the new wajkiui rom is awesome, in my case i safe more battery than @cm7 or miui!

On stock rom or even Topogigi I had issues with standby battery life, phone would lose 5-10% per hour.
Now on CM7 I can idle for 10 hours overnight and lose 10% in total. Usage time is horrible and will always be horrible for these phones, best you can do is fix idle usage.
I get around 4 hours of screen on time with CM7. I carry 2 spare batteries with me though, good eBay investment for $2.80 each. Buy a charger too so you can charge them out of phone ($3.50)
Using the latest CM7-Kang (temasek) and Vadonka's Kernel : poor battery life for the last versions, Baseband is 218 and no task killer, no background apps like FB & so on...
Biggest drain is due to download and 3G
I tried CM7 stock (with 2/3 different kernels)
I tried with the Mugen 1700 battery, and the stock one
Tried with ext4 without journal, and some other tips...
Results are very similar... And the O2X (even with second core management tuned) and undervolted...
Now : defined some tasks with Tasker (switch to 2G, toggle mobile data)... some gain, but not very significant
Sad, and looking for a VERY good ROM that gives real batt'life, but I'm afraid it's hardware related on the o2x...
Heard that DjangoManouche & its kernels gives better batt'life (significant) and I'll probably give a try
(schedulers? I/O tweaks? mount options? voltages?)...
Try hybrid revolution. Its verry good for battery autonomy
for me civato is the best...
I am using Temaseks final KANG with Vadonkas latest LOC Kernel. No Tasker, no task killer, no Juice Defender. UV a little bit and set profiles with setCPU. Battery lasts 2 Days in light to medium use.
Hey guys! I'm sorry (lol) but i can assure without dubts that the best one for battery life is Djdroid v1.4 that you can find in android developmente section ^_*
I‘m using Alien Revolution 2.0 (based on CM7 KANG) I get 1 day of medium use (1h calls, 3G on half of the time, 15-30 min of games) I want to try WIUI now.

Hey,
at the moment im running nightlies latest version.
But im searching for something more stable, and maby faster.

Tnx allready!

Hi I'm using Gueste 2.1 (with SR1 kernel, Go Launcher and the ICS theme from the subforum). Overall it's a great ROM, the battery use graph says i'm using it for 4 days (2G, 45min wifi, 25min calls and some photos) with 1 charge . That's insane, i've only managed to get 1.5-2 days with stock. Speed is better than stock, but it is not buttery smooth in Settings menu. I'm waiting for Gueste 2.2 with the new kernel, developer says it will be smoother. Hope i helped!
Well, instead of running cm nightlies you could try CM7.2 kangs those are better than the nightlies and also more stable.

You people that have the option to turn 3g off are lucky my network forces it so if its switched off i lose network coverage, they only allow 2g switch if your not in a 3g zone which is rare so my battery gets eaten in a day.
i agree eith you. cm 7.2 is real stable, but sometimes i got bsod. its real smooth and fast. im not turning off my wifi. battery life is not so good.imho

Hello!
Define best rom!?!
It is last but not least a question of taste.
All the latest ROMs (CM7.2-RC0-KANGs, MIUI 12+, custom roms based on stock source V20m and up) seem to be pretty stable…
All have their pros and cons.
MIUI has a UI concept similar to iOS – if you like that – go for it…
CM7.2 has a more vanilla approach of gingerbread…
…or a stock source based rom (i.e. Gueste2x) with the look and feel of the original LG stuff, but with more speed and less bugs…
All these latest roms will do for everyday use.
I like CM7 most but that is just my cup of tea.
oke peaple tnx for your reactions !
please share
is there any custom gingerbread rom with bloatware removed and big free ram? and a kernel with OC/UV? plus great game compability?
how about MIUI?
Have yet to find one to best DjangoMouche 1.2.1 its GB 2.3.4 its customized, with different themes to choose from and a good bunch of performance tweaks. everything has been running smooth.
games run well, things load fast
I'm using Gueste overclock v1.8.1 kernel but thats up to choice. i found it works great between 900 - 1300mhz. but above that its rebooted on me a few times.
You could try Temasek's CM7 Rom with it's own kernel, it has OC/UV and all that things.. Run's pretty smooth and stable but i can recommend you to use GO Launcher EX with an ICS Theme :good:

I agree that DJ is one of the best ROMs...no doubt
but could i ask you why DJ 1.2.1 and not the DJ 1.5RC1....I am using the latest and it is more than a magical dream....out of the stars and heaven....I am curious why you are with an older version....

Currently on DJ 1.5RC1 and have to say it is truly magical.The feel of performance,smoothness and speed is just incredible.Always try to experiment with other GB roms and always drawn back to DJ ROM.DJ roms provide many choices according to our needs and customization as we like with transformation packs.So have to say this is the best choice i will ever have:cyclops:
Same here, Django Manouche, currently 1.5 RC1, but I am using latest spica kernel ;-)

Hi, this is my first post here. I have been flashing various roms and a few basebands and rils in my quest to get better battery life from my LG Optimus 2x. In the end. Most of what I have done is experimental and I can not say I understand much about versions and combinations. Last night, I read quite a few posts about the Django Manouche rom and downloaded all the three versions of the 1.6, the stock, the Spica and the Gueste.
Flashing led to boot looping on the Spica rom, powering off on the Gueste rom while on the stock 1.6s it ran OK, with some applications not running until I rebooted.
I came from a stock LG rom and was wondering if I need to change the baseband and kernel also, for these to work.
Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.
I think these "best rom" threads are forbidden but I'll give my 2 cents anyway, in case I'm wrong:
for me the best rom is Gueste Hybrid revolutions 3.7, is a hybrid between stock Rom and cm7.2, and symbiosis kernel 1.3.
I get great performance, great battery life, great ram management. I can't really complain, I'm so satisfied that I'm not that eager to get ICS (at least not as much as I was before).
LG optimus 2x, rom Gueste Hybrid 3.7
@daas88. Taking your advice, I have flashed the same combination as you, just this morning. I have been very active on the phone since then, so I can't tell right away, if there is any improvement in battery life.
By the way, I continue to be on the 20i baseband.
I shall report back soon.
Temasek
Probably the cleanest install would be Temasek. A very stable CM7 build. It's sort of finished, and offers a great experience. Use it with Temasek's, Spica's or symbi0sis kernel.
I've tried DM and it's great, but this just feels cleaner.
gl!
I have been reading about the Temasek rom. What is your view on its battery consumption? That is something I am focussing on. The stock LG set up lasts for about 9-11 hours on my phone, with full 3G, about 4 hours of wifi usage and about 1-2 hour of music (Neutron music player). I have a battery pack that I carry with me to work, but it is a big bother.
So, basically, to me battery life is top priority. If I can extend it to 12-15 hours, I am home and dry.
I've used Temasek for a long period of time, and though I don't want to go back to gingerbread (currently on Paranoid Android) I do miss the battery life. With Temasek (or stock CM7) I would get about 32 hours of battery life: a day and a night. This with some browsing, playing music checking e-mail.
Overclocking would lose you some of that time, but the toggle2g app would win it back. :good:

because if a old galaxy s1 can get 1day easy and 4h++ screen on, the fricking lg must get some were neer also......
stanby is **** i find on this phone dont know if its normal but yeah.

Increased CPU performance, larger screen and stagnated battery technology will do this
As for battery life, I do miss my Nokia 3210! :laugh:
A small update. I charged my phone to 100% yesterday evening at 7 PM. From then on till now, what I observe is that with the phone in standby mode, the battery consumption curve remains almost flat. But the moment I start using some apps, for instance the Number links game for 15-20 minutes, the battery level drops by 10%.
This is with the Gueste Hybrid ROM and the Symbiosis kernel.
Further update: The battery went to 14% and then I charged it. 15 hours. Some improvement. It may be too early to comment, but this set up seems to work superbly when the phone is on standby. When the phone is in use, the consumption seems to be high. Could it be improved by changing the BB or the ril?

my record was 6 hours of screen on time with a cm7 rom and etana kernel with ds battery driver. but now i cant get even 4h screen on time with the same config (only updated versions) :/
