I have not yet started I need links to begin the process right from the scratch.
All ICS roms have bugs. Look in Dev thread for CM9 or AOKP.
Spend at least 4 hours reading how to prepare and install, 2 hours reading what to do when unexpected things happen during/after flash, and 1 hour being sorry wasting your and others time on such impossible question usually followed by biased opinions.
Don't flash ICS. wait for stable JB rom

As far as i experienced slim ics and cm9 are the best out there ...

In terms of which ROM is best, unfortunately there is no answer.
Each rom is different (obviously) so people prefer different roms that fit their different needs.
I'd personally recommend something like SlimICS, TiramiSLIM, or DarkyROM Black Edition.
Slim ICS is a cut down version, no extravagant features.
TiramiSLIM has an easy installation process (if already rooted) and has lots of customization options.
DarkyROM is one of my favourites, but I just upgraded to Jellybean.
You want to know all the steps to installation?
One of the best guides I've found is for the Team 3xtr3me ICS333 rom.
Link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25722239#post25722239
It goes through installation of a rooted Gingerbead (2.3) rom via odin, which is the part most ROM installation guides assume you have already done.
From there you should be able to follow almost any ROM's guide for installation.
Hope this helped.
Don't flash another thing than Cyanogenmod nightlies.
Maybe AOKP. But prefer cyanogenmod. Accelerometer still broken on AOKP. No point of it. (Please don't comment temple runners.)

As kernel, flash latest devil kernel. Don't think another choice. Every kernel is nice. Semaphore is as nice as decil. But devil has more customization choices.

When you're a bit into the flashing thing you coult try RemICS, which has best design for me and is very smoothe and fast as well.
CYANOGENMOD 9 !!! The best of all no bug no problem very fast and I use it for months with devil3.99 kernel
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592131
Hmm... to lazy to find out how to root, what's the difference (if significant) between roms, what to do when that pesky bootloop happen,.... so just start yet another thread for the bragging hordes?
"...... rom is smooth, bugfree, snapping fast, will make you breakfast? , has looongest bat. life,... "
Advice you to spend your time more wisely and enjoy the vast amount of knowledge already posted here at your disposal.
I prefer a plain vanilla ice cream
sandwich with maple syrup, the rum is an acquired taste, but captain Morgan is great for starters.

I use DarkKnight 5.5 with DevilKernel and I found it very stable and smooth. For me it is the best ICS ROM for SGS.

You can try AOKP. I've been using it since a month and I can say that it's quite smooth and well developed. Try it and u won't regret.
My personal favourite. Slim ICS
But look at this benchmark thread and decide for yourself.

SlimIcs. Smooth and stable. But an advice , I personally hate lightning launcher so as soon as I get it I uninstall it and installed N.o.v.a. launcher

I have the same opinion. I currently use CM9 latest nightlies. Best kernels are Devil and Semaphore. I prefer CM9 + Devil kernel. But you could really wait for stable JB...
I've tried several ICS roms and, for me, the better one is Remics. Version 1.3 is already out, but I'm in 1.2 and I don't feel any need of upgrading it!
Hi, I would like to know what I have to learn in order to mod the stock kernel of GT-i9000, which last version (linux version 2.6.35) was written for the use in Gingerbread 2.3.6. My intention is to make it work in ICS or Jelly Bean Custom Roms, and then start tweaking and experimenting, but I need the basics first
I'm talking about knowledge specific to the kernel since I know how to make C programs and the structure of the android stack (Watched this someone? It's great!). Where I have to go? Websites specialized in the matter, ebooks to read, docs... By the moment I have downloaded and installed the CodeSourcery toolkit Samsung tells to install in the README file.
I expect to not completely brick my only sgs phone, but anyway I would like to know how to do it
EDIT: I edited a bit my question since I though it wasn't clear enough what I already know.
No one can help me? I don't expect to have the whole story, just to know what I have to learn :/ May be I'm not in the right subforum for this question. Full noob here at XDA xD

I do not know, but the kernel is here and probably the best I know?

Yup but is not because I though there was no kernel. I know there are a lot, Devil's, Semaphore... I just want to do it by myself
No,Good work.:banghead:

If you want to create a kernel for ics/jb, you should start with the default kernel of CM9/CM10, as most kernels for ics/jb are based on it. Then you could compare it to Semaphore, devil, ..., to see what they do differently.
Hey guys! I've just purchased my Nexus 4 16 GB model and I was wondering what is the the best kernel for it? I haven't tried Faux123 yet, but the first thing I did was flashed Franco, but it's not stable yet. Is there a stable, fast and smooth kernel out there yet? Okay, here is my second question. Is there a Deodex ROM available for the Nexus 4? I love stock because it is the most stable when testing kernels...thanks again guys!

There's no such thing as "best" kernel, this thread has been posed in the wrong section, and a very simple search for the word "deodex" should get you what you're looking for in the Development sections.

Hey Guys,
I don't consider myself a noob when it comes to android but I know near nothing with kernels! So I have a few questions;
1. How do you install them
2. Can I install one even when I'm running slimbean currently or will it replace it?
3 what is the best one to use?
I want to over clock
Thanks for your help

0. Wrong section of the forum to create a thread like this.
1. You flash it from recovery and you reboot.
2. You can flash any kernel on top of any rom, the current kernel you have will be replaced by the one you flash. Make sure the kernel is made for your ROM's Android version, so if the kernel is for Android 4.1, you can't make it work on Android 4.0 or 4.2, they must be compatible. Only a kernel that is made for Android 4.2 can be flashed on top of a Android 4.2 ROM.
3. There is no best one, the differences between the kernels available are small, so the best one is the one that every single person thinks is best and it suits them. My advice is read the OP of each kernel's topic to know what are their features and try them one by one. You can't break anything. If after experimenting you want to return to SlimBean's kernel , just flash the ROM again and everything will be the same as before as every ROM includes a kernel. Some kernels use LiveOC , others use direct steps to OC. Some can say that Devil kernel is the best, others can say Semaphore, CyanKernel, Mackay, Fishears and other kernels available, but the choice is yours, because they will say whatever they think is best because they like the features and are used to how the kernel reacts and feels when the user uses the phone. The same goes with ROMs.

Hi
I must say I am a bit disconnected from the Android world since I get to university and I must ask how all have evolved. I'm looking for the newest most stable custom roms at the moment of this post. I think it would be a good idea to maintain a post like this to keep track of what roms have reached a stable, proven state without having to dig too much.
Cheers!

Well there's the RC4 build (release candidate 4) of cyanogen mod 10.1 that's quite good. Its based on android 4.2.2.
Take note that you should ask questions in the questions section and ROM discussions are generally frowned upon so do venture into the development section to learn more about them.

OOPS!! I forgot the Q&A section totally. I would like to move this post or delete it but I don't see how I should do it. The Edit/delete button just drives me to the edit section and I don't see any way of deleting the post.
No worries, a mod will lock or move this thread eventually

I recommend roms with Mackay kernel, they are often stable and durable in battery but less powerful than Devil kernel. By the way, no one has moved or deleted this post yet =))
