Hey guys, i m new to your forum, so pls be nice to me :-D i just bought the i9001 for my girlfriend and i wanna flash a custom rom right away. My question now is, which rom is the most stable and offers the best battery performance? I dont wanna overclock it, since it seems to be fast enough, but as i already know from my lg device, is that battery is much better on cust roms. So i hope you can help me out and guide me the right direction. If you already have got a discussion thread about roms, pls guide me there, since i couldnt find it till now. Flashing and so on, seems far more complicated with samsung devices but i ll keep on reading, in order not to screw this beautiful device

Hi, try this UCM GingerBread Rom 2.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457437). I have installed it in my SGS+ yesterday.For now this ROM seems to be the best battery and performance combination.
best battery for me was stock rom 2.3.5
I think you will have as many answers as there's customs ROM fo GS2... I have my GS2 since few weeks only and I already tested 5 ROMS to assess which one is the best for my own usage (performance / quality / stability / battery life, etc).
So I think the ROM which has the best match for someone's usage will not be the same than for you.
So far if I could give you a reco it would be for Gingermod, CheckROM v6 or just Stock ROM + Siyha Kernel. But again take it only as my own view which can be different for someone else

He asks for a rom for the sgs+ not the sgs2.
I think it doesn't really matter which rom you take. It does matter what governor and which I/O scheduler you take! change them with no frills cpu controll for the market.
Oh thanks your right, thank all of you guys, I think i ll read some more and try to flash first, when i have enough knowledge about the phone. As far as i got, i first of all need to flash the cust recovery, then pick a rom and either flash it via recovery, or client on pc. Depending on the rom. But i guess i ll take the one from first post, since i only want it to improve battery life and not the overall performance, or even oc, since it is a good phone already ;-) again, thank all of you so far :-D
One more thing, whats the best governor and iosched for you? I prefere interactivex and simple, for battery

I'm currently on modaco r21 sense I want to improve my battery life how can I go about doing that? Can I flash a kernel if so which one?
Flash intersectrave or pershoot kernels. Try all the kernels and see which one fit you best, no harm to your phone if you keep on flashing kernel. Dont ask question in this forum because its for DEV only. Use the general forum for all your question.

Hi.
You can improve your battery life by :
-reading forum rules
-usin search button
-poosting in good section
-be polite
F.
IntersectR doesn't support Desire Rom for the newer 34 Kernel.
The last Kernel is 33.5 back in late May that was updatedt that is undervolted and will wor fine on Desire R21. Run the 925 CFS version and you are good to go.
4th Kernel down.

Yes it will. Simply follow the link provided by sathkartha. There in the first post you can find links to guides that include everything.
CM7 and Miui are the fastest but battery might be a little bit worse (depends on the person, on my phone battery is basically the same as stock aprox 24-30 hrs). Miui is definitely the nicest looking out of all them though while CM7 is the fastest
Good luck
What you're asking for here is as good as "What is the best religion?". Everyone, as you can see has given you their personal opinion, but few solid grounds. In the end, you'll just have to start trying out different ROMs (if you really want to, that is) and decide for yourself, which ROM suits you the best in the end.
Among the Samsung based custom ROMs, they're all pretty much alike, with a few theme differences, but we have the UOT kitchen for that, so no biggie. What's important is you use a base you find stable, and a radio package (Modem) that gives you the best battery life (If you're in India, that would obviously be DDJV4 from the DDJV6 official Indian GB for SGS firmware). On the other hand, AOSP ROMs like CM7 and MIUI are far more robust and powerful, but at the cost of some battery life, and they're still "Work in Progress" with few bugs (which are getting ironed out... and FAST!). You'll notice the difference in a heartbeat. MIUI is simple the best THEMEable ROM available.
All in all, the decision rests with you and you alone. Choose wisely.
i guess i bricked my phone while installing the juwe rom :|
going for the stock gingerbread flash again !
For Asia firmware this is the best: pdamobiz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=438146
i got my phone unbricked
now , i neeed a detailed , step by step procedure to install a rom
please suggest some rom with intruction
thank you in advance

I wanted the MIUI rom , but it says thaT the PHONE should be 2.2 froyo base but mine is 2.3.3 gingerbread ! what should i do now ?
miui FTW............
in rom development page u can see many roms,
i wanna konw which one u think is best,
thank u!
It's a matter of personal preferences really ...
Only way to get a proper answer is to test/use each ROM for a few days up to a week at least.
It also depends a lot on what YOU are looking for and use the most in a smartphone ....
From MY subjective point of view ,Galnet MIUI is the "best" ROM.
If you can do with not so great battery life and few other bits this ROM is great , but others will contradict me I'm sure and will have good arguments as well ...
u have posted this in a wrong section..
If we are just talking about the number of users, Doc's Rom kitchen wins hands down.
But in terms of added function (which is sort of what custom roms are about), there are many other better roms.
On the cutting edge of development, you have CM7 and MIUI. Cyanogen Mod is closer to the vanilla Android experience, while MIUI produce a more iOS like interface. Both have a myriad of new functions that you won't find in any other roms. However, both suffer from battery drain problem, camera quality drop, no 720p recording, etc. It's the price you pay for being at the forefront of development.
If you prefer to play it safe, there are a whole load of custom roms that are based on stock roms. Juwe smart edition, simply honey, Darkyy, etc. It's difficult to judge which is better, so I suggest that you choose on the basis of theme.
I have experienced many roms, including ROM Kitchen, Stock, Darky's, Simple Honey, etc... and my opinion is that, for me, the best one now is Galnet's MIUI. But that depends on what do you want from it: Speed? Stability? Appearance? As for the battery related problems, I have yet to find one that gives me problems. obzcen is right:
"It's a matter of personal preferences really ..."

Have u try ( f1 galaxy 2 )
I think it is worth
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Been using Goatrip for the last 6-8 weeks now on 3.0 update 1 & it is by far the best RON I have used
In my opinion there only 2 options...
Darky 10.1 or F1 Galaxy S2 V6 with Galaxian kernel
jvq+galaxian+extraordinary work good for me
try [ROM][F1 Galaxy S2 V6][SP1][Look & Feel Of Galaxy S2]...
the best rom for me..
i am using an Dutch ROM with the Talon kernel , that us supporting custom boot animations , i made an few 4 the Talon kernel which i am gonna post them on XDA soon !
Darky has been out for a while and are now on version 10.2, so it feels stable. f1 if you want speed.
It's hard to say which is best rom for each invidual . The best way is that you try some of the those most popular roms. In my opinion the best rom at the moment is GalnetMIUI .
Hell yeah... The best way to find best rom - try some of them Test it about 1-2days and next and next. Because as many peoples as many opinions...
i like darkys rom but the battery drain make me far away to use it...
hope he can fix that.
anybody can cook a rom stable as darkys, fast,smooth and good battry life as F1 galax...
Tried all other roms... but still goes back to F1 Galaxy S2 V6 SP1 + Galaxian SP2
It's hard to say which ROM is the best because ideas is different and best way to find best ROM is try some of popular roms.
But I like amestris custom Roms and JVR stock ROM+semaphore kernel
Good luck
Sorry for bad English
In this moment i have Darky 9.5 with speedmod kernel, now is time to change the rom and i keep eyes on the development of JetPack and semaphore kernel.
Insanity
Hi,
I have tried all roms before (darky, goatrif, Juwe's, Doc...).
And without any doubt the fastest and best one is Insanity:

Hi guys! I'm new here in this forums and I'm buying my new SGS+ in a couple of weeks. I can see there aren't that many ROMS and custom firmwares, but the ones that exist are very good! I want to know if the official ROMS are fast and good for everyday usage, gaming and listening to music. I know that the custom ROMs like Cranium and BroodRom are super fast, but I always prefer official firmware. Please express your opinion and give me a suggestion. I have experience with flashing a SGS+, so it's not a problem for me.
Well, these custom ROMs are in fact just modded stock ROMs. So you can get some added AOSP apps and removed bloatware. CM development is really difficult as some devs already bricked their phones.
I personally wouldn't buy it again.
It's a quite decent phone but nothing special imo.

I know they're just soft-mods, but people say they're faster than official ROMs, because they contain some tweaks.
Yes, thats right. If you have some knowledge you could also tweak the stock ROM yourself as you like it. (Apart from things like CWM recovery etc.)
If you don't need all those Samsung bloatware then you could flash one of the ROMs you like.
broodROM

Thank you all for your opinions! I had a very positive experience with one of your ROMs, so I think I will go for BroodROM.
BroodROM RC2 with the Cranium Kernel v6 1900MHz
That way you can overclock as you wish with the "no frills cpu control" app and set governors + i/o scheduler.
At least thats what i have on my SGS+ and i'm very happy with it
here's a benchmark screenshot of mine

Hi Senior Member xCi, this is my first Time, and i think i should be needing a help. i have already bought my samsung sgs+ a couple of weeks ago. and after that i've playin games , browsing , used my phoneetc. i've seen that sgs+ still slow on cpu, gpu and when i play hd games its getting hot in a 30 minutes after. but not like the old samsung galaxy s i9000 which is very slow and very hot when i play games like nfs shift. so i figured out that i wanted to upgrade/update it but there's no officially released update for sgs+ in my software update (Over In The Air) and in kies. but didnt do something and after that i've been thinking and began searching xda developers. and saw many development were created such as the tweaks (awesome), custom roms ( like Cranium Rc9 I've Watched It on Youtube/ BroodRom Here) i was really inspired and been thinking if i can do it alone (im so scared besides this my first time) so i can update my phone into more poweful tweaks like cranium rc9 or BroodRom and other tweaks mods for my sgs+. im starting and im a begginer and i really need help, sorry if im being noob or kinda stupid (〒︿〒) i was really confused when i was reading this post by Artem Russakovskii http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...d-phone-with-rom-manager-full-backup-restore/ he says that other customs roms have different installing procedure. can i apply sakindia's cranium rc9 following the steps of Artem. Besides I've Already Done The Rooting Procedure At forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001 For My Samsung Galaxy S+ I9001. this is my first time but before i start doing something on my my phone i should ask someone like you who can give me a better advices and other tips in things like this.
-----------------------------------------------------------I Was Hoping I Can Find a Better & Clear Instruction's Installing Cranium Rc9 + Rc9 Kernel OR BroodRom + Cranium Kernel v6 1900MHz for my SGS+ I9001 From You DEVs! Out There . because my phone still lags and very hot when i played HD games and sometimes slow on menu when i quit some hd games. Btw, Sir Ill Kindly Wait For Your Reply/Tips/Help You Can Send Me A Message Thru My Email: [email protected]
Hi, I'm really new to this whole thing and reading more and more makes me very confused...
It took me half day to root & flash onecosmic's ICS RC2.1 & it's kernel
I'm having few issues with USB recognition and heard that this mod drains quite a lot of battery
So I was wondering if someone can give me an advise on (very straight forward) which rom and kernel is best to use at this stage, in terms of stability and performance
Thank you very much~

If you are new to all this, I suggest you first try out either CM7 or MIUI rom instead of ICS .. though ICS esp. onecosmic's is quite stable for daily use, it still lacks the smoothness and stability of CM7 / MIUI ...
Even I shifted to MIUI mintberry edition just today after using ICS for a couple of weeks..
about the kernel, I would suggest keeping the default kernel (that comes with the rom) for now and test other things step by step..
