Yes medroid is very good

You already have it
Try CM7 nightly Kang for an updated version from temasek . Based on official rom with cherry picks.

I always come back to cm. Currently on n253, gonna try 7.2 the moment i got some time. I'm waiting with ics for my next device (not counting my prime )

Personally, though, I find MIUI to be the best Gingerbread ROM. I hate the iOS-styled launcher, though, so I changed it for Launcher 7.

of all the gb roms i used, i find QND MIUI best as of now (though all the other roms were equally good and had no trouble). i find it to be more appealing. and those cool themes make the phone look different each time

TW4 LAUNCHER - For ICS roms on our Nexus S (Tested only on GSM)

Hey there community !
i was looking at the portal , and I found they ported tw4 launcher to the i9000 running ICS .. So i took the liberty of flashing the apk on my gsm nexus S, and SUCESS ! it works perfect !
Here is the original thread ~>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520436
Follow the steps in the thread,download the flashable ZIP file, flash it through CWM and you should have tw4 launcher !
I'm currently running a heavily modded version of 4.0.4, so that means that it should be good to go on pretty much any ics rom (except miui) on our nexus S !
go ahead and test it out for yourself !
I give all credit to XDA user PaWill (where ever he got it from)
enjoy

For the record Rooster85 is awesome and AOKP is awesome but as he clearly states in that thread's OP he had no part in the ROM's development.
Can you install this with out rooting or flashing a rom?

The Widgets won't resize. That's really unfortunate considering Google's widgets are abnormal sizes.

Differences between owain's ICS and SuperNova ICS? Which one is better?

Hey,
right now my phone is on CM7, but much progress has been made with CM9 or ICS.
My question is wheater is should flash this version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517301
or this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508492
what are the differences between this 2 version? which one is more stable? which one is faster?
thanks in advance! cheers
Supernova is the kernel that comes with novahd.
And the difference between owains and novahd is that novahd is more customizable. During the installation you can choose exactly how you want it. From text fonts to what apps you want to install. But both Roms is based on owains, so there is not a big difference.

Nova has also a tweaked kernel Supernova
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA
you think that the nova hd is based on owains build, be yourself are both fine, but I would put that of owains
Nova is very good in speed, smoothness and still very stable.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA
I personally use Owains because I tried NovaHD and directly saw that it didn´t like me, everything was forced closed and not much was working, but however, I did like the customised stock-apps in /system/app/ and I still use a few of them. I´m currently running on Owains RC0-37 and I think that it all flows on very good!
I would choose Owain because I like to have bleeding edge features (It updates often) but I think that NovaHD would be a great choise to! So, my suggestion: try them both for a couple of days!
(Sorry for bad english)

If you install with fullwipe, try nonwipe, or wipe in CWM and install with nonewipe.
I`ve also read someone have to install with wipe, and reinstall with nonewipe.
Nova is just a better polished version of owain rom, I used Nova before, but now reloadedICS does not work on the latest version, that's bad
I think it's personal choice. For a All-in-One Package I would prefer Nova HD.
But again, again there isn't too much difference.

Which ICS ROM does not lag?

Hey guys.
I am using an ICS rom at the moment. I am currently on the NOVA HD Rebuild v1.1.0 and the kernel I am using is 3.0.33-NovaKernel-ICS-1.0.7.
The problem with this ROM is that it is extremely laggy. Is that a problem with all ICS roms and should I just go back to Gingerbread or is there another ROM which is not as laggy. I would like to use ICS on my phone for daily use without it being sluggish or slow. Thanks.
Paranoid is the best ICS Rom since 5 days I passed from cm7 to it and I love it. So stable 0 bsod and no lag
Perfect rom

Try xxmrhyde's latest build.
I use NOVA rebuild before, everything is OK except hapetic in game is not good as CM7. I think driver is not full support, alway have problems.

Game is OK ?
I'm using Paranoid with the stock kernel too, very nice.
Not sure if you've made the distinction between the actual rom or just the launcher which seems laggy.
I'm using LG UI 3.0 on Paranoid and for the moment there doesn't seem to be anything else that beats it in my opinion.
miui v4 2.6.1 by bihariel fast and customizable, I use it for two months. No lag, except that sometimes the camera is FC but this' common to all ics try.
MIUI v4 2.6.1 by Bihariel
kernel NOVA EDITION PURE beta1
Paranoid, i also suggest this, i use NOVA before and it was to laggy and cannot multi tasking at all,
Tried paranoid and now i will still stay with it.
(Build 5 coming soon, with some jelly bean theme temporary, hope the dev can morp in the CM10 soon)

Just follow the instructions (you'll need root explorer: linked)
sorry for the late reply.
I have indeed started using the Paranoid ROM and it is not laggy at all, maybe a little unresponsive but overall it is fine. Better than NOVA. What kernel are you guys using? I guess I want one which supports voodoo (I am not sure if voodoo has support for it in ICS).
In my opinion they all lag, especially when opening the drawer.
Paranoidandroid was the smoothest from the one I've tested and it's lag is so subtle from time to time, that it does not bother me.
So from all I've tried now Paranoid build 5, stock kernel and Ram manager or advanced task killer is totally good to go for daily use.
Had only one hot reboot since I'm using it.
I am using paranoid build 5. In my opinion its the best among all ICS ROMS.No lag No unexpected shutdowns.Im loving it here is the thread.

I just got my nexus! :)

HI guys i just got my nexus and i downloaded the toolkit.
I want to know what is the best rom to flash and a link to how would be appreciated?
I would like one that dosen't interfere with OTA updates as well
Thank you all very much
I would recommend Paranoid Android 3+. Link is in my signature. Even if you dont update it a lot, every build is very stable. Battery life is really good. It uses stock kernel with no overclocking or under clocking. Lots of customization. Check out the video in the official thread.
If you are running 4.2.1, make sure to update your baseband and boot loader when upgrading to 4.2.2.

That's not an official MIUI ROM. Its based on CM with MIUI look. MIUI ROMs aren't available for N4 yet because its running 4.2.1 or 4.2.2. You have to wait until MIUI catches up with N4 firmware. Feel free to install it.

Congrats on the new nexus, but as born2gethard has alluded to, "best rom" threads aren't allowed. Too many people with too many opinions. Just try them for yourself.
