do you think or know if CM9 will solve the battery hogging issue?
Not sure, but surley if it has battery hog issues , then iam not going to CM9 , waiting for an expert reply though
It's definitely better then CM7, and probably better then many other roms out there. At least try it out.

Try tOnecosmic's ICS Port!!!
It is amazing, good battery life, very smooth, works great as my daily Rom

I DON'T recommend going to ICS just yet (unless you want to beta test), builds are still too early, they are unreliable for everyday use and it'll be a while until we get a stable and good performing rom, CM7 is much better right now, but it may change in the future though.
ICS launcher FC a lot, gallery app and browser are laggy, and if you use live wallpapers everything slows down a lot, also there are many app incompatibilities now. I tried to like ICS but it's still in alpha stages (don't believe all those RC1 or beta labels, it's really not ready)
CM7 is great but yes, it's a battery hog. You could use a samsung rom (a custom ODEXED rom or stock are fine) and a custom kernel, I use semaphore with thunderbolt and it's very good performing, it can't touch CM7 in RAM management (isn't as good in multitasking), but videos, games play nice and samsung has a few good apps (it's dialer has smart dialing and its a looker, it can play almost all videos even h264 720p 60fps, music app uses very little battery since it's HW accelerated and its browser is as smooth as the iphone's, it can't be touched by CM7's), and you can delete all other samsung bloatware.

Thanks for your reply !! , i used to be on almost every new ROM lately but i couldn't handle the Lag even with using Thunderbolt and stuff , it was veryyy laggy and not responsive , iam now on CM7.1 and i have to say it is waaaaaay faster than the sammy build roms , too bad i get some force closes often and i HATE how low the music is , the music player sucks alot of battery though
my best Samsung experience was on Hybrid roms , stable , fast.
btw not all CM9 builds are bad ! you can try search for the AndroidSoul's review of cm9 , it looks veryyyyy smooth !
any recommendations for now ?

Thanks so much man ! i have seen some videos for the onecosmic's port and it is veryy fast indeed !!!!
i wonder how long do you last with heavy usage / medium usage ?
what about standby ?? , iam so going to try this soon !
With heavy usage I can use my Phone one day, but this was the same with Gingerbread.
When I only have low or medium usage, the battery lasts 1 1/2 - 2 Days, very good for a non final release. But most i charge my phone every night.

I didn't watch any videos, I flashed both versions myself and ICS isn't ready yet, got too many FC, lags heavily on some occasions and isn't as fast as CM7 (we're talking about the version for the i9000 right? )
It'll reach great performance levels in the future I'm sure, but saying that it's perfect for daily use or better than CM7 is just going a little too far.
And have you tried a high LMK for sammy roms? Like 80MB or higher, you won't be able to multitask much, but performance will be very good for games or heavy apps

I guess iam going to skip flashing CM9 then ! , iam an average-heavy user
- well , i have never tried messing up with memory but i assure you i have had troubles multitasking , and very very very bad response time on almost any sammy rom , even with overclocking i don't really feel any difference
all what i used to flash on sammy roms was base rom + custom rom on top of it + some tweaks like thunderbolt script , overclocking wasn't even noticed
i also used to tweak the colors
Hello!
I just would like to ask which is the most smooth and best battery life ROM available there, as I no time to test all of them.
I use my phone all the time, I play games, watch movies and use WiFi all the time.
I need a ROM for everyday use, that is stable+fast+smooth.
While doing AuTutu's benchmark I have scored 1438 on stock ROM, but I have seen someone score over 2132 on the same 2.1 ROM!!! How is this possible?
Thank you for your help
MiniCm7 2.1.6 + kernel nAa-08b

Hello. You wanna try CM7 ROM? Then I would suggest Temasek's build. I'm sure you can play those games you want, and as per my experience, battery life is good that last over 24 hours from discharged. You can download the file using wifi, just use the opto site of temasek where the file can be located. It can be seen in his sig. Hope it helps!
I will give it a try, thank you a lot =D
My suggestion is Chuck Norris CM7 ROM. Been using it for third day now and the battery life is excellent, it is fast and stable and looks and feels great. Another rom worth looking at, in my opinion, is CyanogenMod 7.1.0 as it also gave me good performance and stability, but battery drainage was to extensive for me. Best practice is to get Rom Manager, flash CWM recovery, backup your current rom and you are set to experiment with other roms till you find combination that suits you best.
Bro if u want a decent rom with all the stock functions try DjangoManouche roms.It has great customisations and great smoothness.For good battery consumption please try spica1234 Horsepower kernel latest version as it is optimised for more smoothness and lag free game play.Rest is ur's to decide.
Have fun.

Hello , i was wondering if anyone could tell me what is the best rom for gaming ? im currently on zeus 7.0 the games are running way better than my original v20c firmware but i still have some lags in games like : gangstar rio , and the amazing spider-man , and i would really like them to play a bit better , so can someone point me to a good gaming rom ? or maybe someway i could boost my gpu ? , i tried installing chainfire 3d but honestly i dont know how to use it , and one last thing what does voltage have to do with overclocking and how do i know what overclocking value suits the voltage ?
sorry for all the questions i'm still trying to get the hang of it . =/
Mercurified or Zeus hands down.
My main agenda is to help, not gain thanks.
well u get the thank yo?u anyway , but still the other questions arent answered yet :/
zeus or cm7 with boype's kernel
voltage depends on your phone itself but i keep it neutral (i.e. 0 in zeus)
Personally, I had better gaming experience with Boypes cm7 than Zeus 6.39. I have never tried Zeus 7.01 but I would like to know if its better now.

Ok so ,first of all i DO know there are other "best gaming rom" topics,but with so many new roms out there,i was wondering if anybody changed his mind.
I used helly bean and some other jellybean rom and it wasnt ok. Now i came back to CyanogenMod 7 and i like it as stability and battery life.
The game im interested in is Subway Surfers (my girlfriend is obsessed by this game). Sometimes it moves ok,sometimes the fps is very low.
Also keep in mind that i tried with and without "Game Booster" at ALL levels.
The battery with CM7 is extremely good (used for music,games,high light display and it was up for 3 days) . What i'm interested in is a rom with a decent battery life (lets say at least half of CM7) ,great stability (i hate reboots,crashes etc) and the best gaming performance out there (as i said befoe,especially to be able to run Subway Surfers with no freezes).
I don't care if its 2.3.6 ,ICS or JellyBean as long as its stable,decent battery and best gaming performance.
Thanks in advance,i hope you guys can help me install the best gaming rom at the moment.
