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
(ref. ICSSGS RC4.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20420260)
Thanks for all your support.
I'll try MIUI first(http://roms.miui.us/2.2.17/MIUI.us_galaxysmtd_2.2.17_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed.zip), never tried it but heard mutch about it.
Btw. Tried both the f1 and surface (like f1). Managed to **** up each in less than 2 weeks. Darky ROM was easy. Destroyed it in one week
but probably it is my party doing something really wrong.

Have you tried Phone.apk from XXJW1?
Rooted JVU :
Activate fly-mode, use root explorer to mount r/w /system, overwrite /system/app/Phone.apk,
In CWM recovery Clear dalvik/cache , reboot
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!
Cheers
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

I promised a friend of mine that I will help him get a more stable ROM for his OB because he doesn't know anything about flashing or anything root related really and the stability of the stock ROM is, well, pathetic. I haven't seen any android phone until now which gives random crashes and freezes with a stock ROM.
So, I really need your opinions on the stability of the various custom ROMs that have been developed for the p970. Doesn't matter if they're based on CM.
there is Marvel rom, Zeus rom and many stable ones
but i would advice you go zeus
it's more helpful to tell him why you advice zeus..
i went almost immediately to a custom rom with my OB so i can't realy compare with the stock rom.
Zeus is my favorite, for my daily use it's is very stable.. i haven't got any problems but the only things i use is wifi, 3g, some browsing, sms, calling.. just the usual stuff. i'm not a very active user.
The things i like the most about zeus is the fact he realy improves the phone's ability. without giving in on stability.
With zeus you get great performance increase and stabilty.
I tried CM one time and it gave me nothing but problems.. instability like i had never seen before.. sudden reboots within a few hours.
maybe it's better now but why change something that's realy good, so i will stick to Zeus.
I can't tell you much about other roms because i haven't tried them very long.
if like you said its for your friend who is not really experimental well i would actually advice to flash marvel since its basically stock, but slightly modded, or if you really want to try zeus but want it to be almost foolproof you can try with the v3, i personally used the v3n (had probs with v4 & v5 and went back to v3) for the longest of time w/o any or with the least issues, prada/ supressed rom is also good but bluetooth is an issue (i think) delphin ive not tried...miui i havent tired it for very long so cant say much... there was gabwerkz echelon but for now its been TD, sapphire have not tired it long enough to comment much, wont recommend cm for now as i believe it would require quite abit of tinkering around....
or if you dont mind using froyo.... then nova is prolly the best best for most stable
but then again this is just my opinion.....
Or cook one on your own, or just flash the software available for you, then root it, take titanium backup, uninstall all the crap you dont need, maybe add a cust kernel of sergey, make/take a custom theme, another launcher, add another lockscreen and you already have your own custom ROM.
Have fun

prada/ supressed rom is also good but bluetooth is an issue (i think)

SUPRESSED is a fully functional 100% working 135 MB ROM. no Bluetooth or any problems. very close to stock albeit without the bloatware.
and of the PRADA ROM port, i have fixed the BLUETOOTH to make it fully functional.
just need sometime to upload the ROM.
and SAPPHIRE ROM is also 100% problem free.
however, my PERSONAL fav is Zeus. it's a great one.
Hee sorry abt that bro.....

I would personally suggest you go with Zeus over Marvel, Both are great ROMs ofcourse ,however i had more available ram which could give us an edge when trying to play games..and the thing tat i liked abt Marvel is that it is totally custamizable
Thanks a lot for your feedback guys!
hiHIhi
There's a lot of ROM for you to choose... i guess all of the replied above made you some choice, for me i recommend you the Zeus if u want OC, gaming and better performance, I personally choose Marvel is because a lot of customization to be made, include various boot animation, launchers and widget to decide which to install =)
For stability choose zeus
Wanna do a lot of mod choose psycho36's selfkang8 + huexxx 4.1 kernel
I did use CM7.2 date 4.21 for a day and it seem it work better at night, when I don't use it for call but whenever a call is coming through it will just restart itself.
Well I ve been trying every rom, and i have decided that marvel and zeus are the best ones, i d recomend you to try both
I just rooted a friend's phone and was wondering what would you recommend me. He doesn't know how to change ROMs so I am looking for something rock stable, close to stock, nothing fancy, just something that works without any problems.
It depends on what type of experience you want. Are you looking to alleviate some of the issues that plagued the stock ROM with its poor I/O response time? What is your reason for replacing stock if you want something similar to stock?
CM7 or CM10 are both good ROMs; CM7 significantly improves the performance over stock, it has the same UI as Eclair/Froyo/Gingerbread and it had extra (useful) features.
CM10 is out of alpha now (I think) and provides the latest Android experience, similar to what you would get on a new phone. ICS/JB was a significant redesign over the ROM that was stock for SGS.
I'm not satisfied with CM ROMs, I ran them on both my HTC Desire and Nexus S and they didn't feel smooth. I want something stock with basic root settings.
The reason he wanted a custom ROM was because his phone was heating much and rebooted.
I would say Slim ICS with the setup on my sig.. first ICS rom ive been using after GB and just loving it, VERY stable and smooth, Only downside that pop ups on my mindd right now is you cant record 720p video if you want more RAM with the bigmem patch enabled.. BUT thats only IF you want it enabled

I am on stock Xlt5 rom and philz kernel with all bloats removed (including kies etc). My rom was good for a couple of days but then it started to lag and now it lags as much as a few seconds when I click to do something. I have tried many custom roms but the custom roms always have some issues. I like stock look because I don't do any fancy tricks with my phone. I use my phone as a tool so I would like to see it as stock as possible without extreme tweaks. I have also flashed some other stock roms with bloat removed and I get the same lags after a few days. So now I am about to just ditch this phone as I have come to believe the JB update on this phone is total crap. The same 4.1.2 on samsung galaxy s2 is great and buttery smooth but on note we have nothing but headaches in hand.
I would like to know which stock rom and kernel is without lags or with minimum lags and without any bugs.
Thanks in advance for your input.

Best rom thread..is against XDA rules. Anyways, answer for your question, Stock XXLT9 + Philz XXLT9 OR Sweet Rom V10 (with Philz XXLT9)- this is Custom rom & not stock
I must ask
because I like a lot CM7 ROMs, very fast and all the apps worked so good, even faster than stock ROM
but everytime I installed one of them it always happened the same to me, randomly, but sooner or later, my screen just got stuck and I needed to reboot...
is it a ROM based on Cyanogenmod7 which doesn't present that problem, I mean a really stable one??

CICI was one of the more stable CM7 ROMs, but it wasn't solid.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1699264
You want a GB 2.3.4 based ROM for the greatest stability and performance.

oh yeah I tested CICI once, it's amazing I almost left that one as my default ROM but it presented the same problem (system crash and random reboot) not sure if the latest has this issue fixed
