Whats the best rom available right now for the N1? I haven't tested my N1 with anything in a while been running MIUI but I'm finding it to be sort of laggy now with apps installed.
Fastest? Hmm, pretty much any CM7 self-kang.
This one by samuaz is really fast: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416894
Is that the most stable rom available for nexus one right now?
with multiple full wipes to include system both are stable for me
with ICS by samuaz you need to follow op page exactly
Temaseks latest CM7 Kang with scroll zip is BLAZING
I use now ICS by samuaz, it's fast and really stable. But it's an alpha version!
When you think it's important to have a stable rom, then
use CM7. CM7 roms are as stable as stock, but better ;-)
worth upgrading to ICS or JB?
hello. I realize this thread hasn't been active in a while, but I am thinking to bring back my Nexus One from the grave so I can have a backup phone for my daughter to play with in the car/plane. I wanted to ask if it is worth installing ICS or JB ROMs that are out there. I just have the stock ROM in there now and I always struggled with low memory and lag with some newer apps, that's why I've upgraded phones (I've have a Galaxy Nexus now).
I don't have intentions to put a SIM card in there, so I don't really care about phone call features.. only purely from a processing and lightweight standpoint.
Has anybody played enough with GB vs ICS and/or JB and weighed if it's worth upgrading? I'm assuming that it's worth it because so many developers still have Nexus One ROMs... that's why I would just go ahead and install it, but then I'm thinking again if it's just going to bog down the phone if I'm going to only use it for simple games.
Thanks in advance!!

Hello! I have installed the CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.2 v6.0 that is based on CyanogenMod and Evervolv, and works fine for me. I also have installed all the /data partition in the SD card with the A2SD script that is incorporated in the ROM... it generates some few lags, but I didn't have had any problem of lack of space again.
In my opinion, this is the ROM of JB that best preserves the native Android interface, and in my case is stable (until 7 days without to require a reboot!).
Other JB ROMs that users frequently use are PARANOIDANDROID and PixelDroid.
Thanks for the quick response! That is the ROM I was thinking of as well. However, just as a comparison, I'm thinking to flash a clean version of GB back onto the phone as well. Any recommendations on any GB ROMs as well? Thanks!

Sorry, but I can't help on it. I didn't install any GB ROM further than the stock ROM. In my opinion, I think that a stable, complete and functional ROM might be CyanogenMod 7.2. Maybe other XDA members can help you better on it...

This is my main phone. In several times I though changing to other new Nexus device, but the screen size of new devices is too big for me! I like a screen size from 3.7 to 4.0, that is good to read mails, a brief navigation in the Internet, and other minor issues. For other intensive uses, I have my tablet Nexus 10 or my laptop.
Tell me please. I wanna flash ICS in my GT-I9000
Thanks
I guess CyanogenMod 9 for SGS will be the best but it's still in alpha. I can't wait to see stable version (anybody knows when it will be released?). As far I didn't use any ICS rom so notnasty9999 you should wait for other replies.

Without fail daxinfinity's codenameandroid port;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1485734
It's at the level where the CM9 alpha should be - great performance (especially with glitch kernel), best battery life of the ICS roms, and the most customization.
Do yourself a favour as well, install the apex launcher - looks and performance of the stock ICS launcher, but cyanogen levels of customization.
I tried cm9 and onecosmic
And now i got AKOP port 2.02
There is no lags , FC , not stuck , A lot of customizion
And it is the best for me

AOKP 2.02beta with Semaphore 0.8.1 is extremelly fast, reliable, stable! highly recommend.
ive just installed daxinfinitys got to say pretty good no problems so far love all the extra tweaks you can do.
Teamhacksung is the best. In my experience, this is the most stable ICS build (currently on build 16). I have messed about with AOSP and AOSK and some of the other versions and at first they seem better but often they seem to have a fault - lockscreen freezes or problems with my external sd card and transferring large files with my laptop. I have found the semaphore kernerl (latest version) really good when setting on battery saver mode. You can also change the boot animation with ROM toolbox - good stuff there!

is a bad habit.
I am aware of badly implemented search function of xda, but still?
Best practice = read more, try self.
Pattern of phone usage will always be different.
Bro, hello there, I have 2 SGS, one is running CM9 with original kernel, and another one is with TEAMICSSGS RC4.2+Devil kernel 14.2LED, no doubt, TeamICSSGS is my choice, it is fast, reliable, and most major function are working, around 95% of the function are working perfectly, especially the camera video effect, which makes my day..Try it, trust me..=D..have a nice day
Teamhacksung will pwn all the others and still does.
All those 'wow I have a new ROM' which is totally PAWITP's with a bit of my
own (kuch % battery and don't know what other kinda stupid stuff) are so
not comparable.
They call it SLIM ICS because they deleted some apps, wow it has such a
better battery and lightningfast, yeah well every dork can do that (but
they still call it a new ROM mhowhehaha). It's all in between the ears.
Still think there a 2 main ICS ROMS:
- OneCosmic
- TeamHacksung
And TeamHacksung, here flashed on my i9000, is still the best from build #1.
Stable, stock or on Glitch, so no need to flash all the 20 other useless things.
I don't even flash my phone now every week and my phone is kinda stable,
the accu's getting used to the build and with everything on I have a good
phone.
I use AOKP and I am very satisfied.
It has only very minor bugs and is perfectly suitable for everyday use.
I haven't used Teamhacksung as I had the "hello hello" bug in CM7 which others are reporting in Teamhacksungs CM9.
Currently using Team ICSSGS 4.2 with semaphore 0.8.1. Been using this combo for almost two weeks & battery life is awesome with great performance and for what I use my phone for it is super stable, virtually lag free and with no noticeable issues.
While I do miss all the customisations of the CM Roms the "hello hello" bug is a deal breaker for me. There is apparently a solution to actually fixing the bug but this also appears to work for some people but not all. (You can download hbb2_test.zip - http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=4681 if you have these issues)
I agree with inozako TEAMICSSGS RC4.2+Devil kernel 14.2LED, is the best solution....try it
Testing almost all, cm9, CNA ('s), AOKP ('s), MIUIv4 and finally AOKP 2.0.2 is the best, the most stable, the easiest to customize & very good battery.
in my signature no doubt
I haven't tried Teamhacksung's since i have i9000b and it doesnt support it but i did try ICSSGS and i tell you i cant think on a better rom. You should give it a try, since its avalible for i9000, i9000b captivate and vibrant

Hello all,
I've purchased this tablet last Saturday. I have read a couple of threads on this forum and now I've got a couple of questions. Note that I am an absolute noob on rooting and roms.
1. What are the benefits of rooting the device?
2. If I would root the tablet, is it still possible to receive the software updates from Samsung? (i.e. when ICS is finally rolled out officially).
3. What ROM would you guys recommend? A version of ICS or the Overcome version?
4. Is it easy to get back to the Stock version?
I hope you guys can help me!
Thanks in advance!
Trea
I have rooted my Tab for one reason and one reason only.... I wanted to use What'sapp on it and for that it needed to be rooted. If you are rooted you can remove system apps. I have always ran custom roms on my phones but have held off changing the rom of my Tab, but only cuz I don't wanna have to sort out all my apps etc out. You will still get updates from Samsung whilst being rooted.
1. What are the benefits of rooting the device?
To numerous to list, not the least of which is the list of apps I run that require root and the flexibility to make customizations otherwise not possible.
2. If I would root the tablet, is it still possible to receive the software updates from Samsung? (i.e. when ICS is finally rolled out officially).
Yes.
3. What ROM would you guys recommend? A version of ICS or the Overcome version?
Galaxian Soup or CM9, both of which are ICS.
4. Is it easy to get back to the Stock version?
Yes, if you also install Clockworkmod Recovery and do a nandroid backup. But chances are you won't want to. It becomes an entirely new device under ICS. (But backup your stock ROM anyway.)

Thanks for the info! I've rooted the device and installed Clockworkmod recovery. Now I plan on installing ICS tonight (battery was almost empty so I figured I should charge it first before putting on a different ROM)
What are the differences between the Galaxian Soup and CM9? Also is it recommended to install the google apps zip?
Thanks again!
Be aware that the camera does not work on the ICS roms, so if you are going to need the camera then it would be stock rom or Overcome.

i never use gapps. flash it if you use gmail or gtalk or maps or any other google stuff.
i also recommend you to install the latest aokp (b33, which doesn't have a galaxian soup version yet, but you can find the link in the gs thread).
i have cm9 now but it has wifi and Bluetooth issues for me (and some other users). i'm just waiting for galaxian soup to release a 3g version. but you have gt7310 so you're good to go.

Galaxian Soup has two versions for both 7300 & 7310, both updated regularly. The AOSP version is as close to Google's implementation of ICS possible. The AOKP version offers a lot more control of the ROM and has some nice additional features. Safariking has posted his own version of AOKP (7310 only) and I've never used it because I have a 7300.
CM9 is Cyanogenmod's implementation of ICS. It's a lot like stock ICS but has different standard apps with a slightly different feel and a few different controls.
I've tried all three and prefer AOSP over AOKP (probably in the minority here), though I might switch to CM9 for a while just to stay familiar with it.
Yes, you probably will need Google apps and there really isn't a great reason not to have them onboard.
Thanks for the info!
I've just installed the AOSP version with the google apps and it works great! The tab is a lot faster like this!
The only "problem" I have is that the screen goes on and off when I go from landscape to portrait, is that normal?

AFAIK, this has been an issue for Galaxian Soup AOSP since alpha. After months of bouncing between AOSP ICS, and stock, I've finally had enough of touchwiz to last a lifetime. I will be rocking AOSP ICS for a while... I can wait for the Sammy ICS update to resolve all the minor bugs for the ICS roms. When I ran the Alpha ICS rom, I was shocked at the stability and performance of an alpha, and its only gotten better since. Hats off to the Galaxian Soup devs
Hello guys,
so far I've been using Rocket Rom (v8 i think) - Gingerbread, Paranoid Android 0.5 ICS, Criskelo's and finally Chrack's Rom on my Note.
I'm still using Chrack's v12 so its time to upgrade.
I wanna keep the S-Note stuff for now, so I want to choose a TW based rom, but I just can't decide which. The differences (at least if you compare the feature lists) of most roms are very narrow.
I'm undecided between Kingdroid V8, Rocket Rom v11 and Chrack's Final (v18).
What do you guys use and what you like or dislike about your roms?
AND while we are already at it: Is there any ICS rom out there which has the statusbar acting as Brightness toggle like it used to be in Gingerbread? I used that feature all the time, but on ICS roms it doesnt seem to exist, or am I wrong?
Question #2: What are the "downsides" of CM10? No MHL and no snote apps right? Anything else?
--
Not trying to get people to praise one rom and bash the others or smth, just looking for some opinions and pro's n contras of all the roms since I don't have the time to test them all out myself. (I mean fully testing, not just flashing and having a quick look)
Thanks

Hi there, only a personal opinion but I have tried all / most of the ROMS on the Galaxy Note ROM DB and find Chrack to be the best for my personal usage (Music, Browser, Flash video, email, text, A2DP). I have replaced the Snote etc with Papyrus and GNote (I think they are smoother and much less bloated).
The CM10 / AOKP ROMs take up far less memory but A2DP issues, no flash video and problematic SMS make it a no go for me.
Only my opinion though.
Hope this helps. Please hit Thanks if it did.

Hi guys,
I'm using CyanogenMod 7.2, but it started to become painfully slow and it crashes almost every day. So I'm think about installing another ROM, but to be honest, after reading recent topics with custom ROMs, I really can't decide which one should I download. I would like to have an ICS or higher, but if there is a ROM on 2.3 that is way faster than any ROMs on 4.0 and higher, I can install the Gingerbread.
What are your recommendations? I'm currently interested in modded CyanogenMod 10.1, ImaGinary ICS Final and Touchwiz Revolutionised 5.0.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, I get it, but... how should I choose the best one - which is most suitable for me - when people can't express their opinions about different ROMs? Most of the posts in particular ROMs threads are related to some broken stuff etc., so it is hard to find same opinions.

hello, I cant answer your question, I can only give you an idea of what I experienced and read out there. Like all of us, you have to experience, have fun, and make your own evaluation, I begin to suggest you to choose spacecaker's rom , or you can get the stock rom with new kernel, andrenaline engine and Darktremor.
But dont stay with those, try some more a get back to tell us your opinion

I've tried Miracle V4 and M'rage. This setup seems better to me in every way, but that is just my opinion. It also depends if you like CM or stock roms..
