Hi, my question is simple but the answer could be an entire book...
Since we can no longer trust Motorola and their crappy customer care (don't want to waste time to say those things again, all of you know what I'm talking about )
I had a look over the Internet to understand which ROM is suitable for an upgrade, but now I am confused :
there are a lot of ROMs out there, and I don't have time to test each one (more, I have only this phone, if I brick it, or block it due to an unusable ROM I have to fix it asap.).
Is there a fully working unofficial ROM with a better performance than the stock one? (with flash and app2sd?)
I understand that the locked bootloader isn't helping on this, but I'm interested in the full features of my smartphone: if camera doesn't work for example, for me it's a shame (either if everything else works flawless..).
I am root already if that can help...
Thank you in advance

Bro, try shadowmod b3,
I have used froyomod, cm6, hobomod and shadowmod,
I can undoubtedly say that shawdowmod b3 is the best one,
Advantage:
OK battery life, never lag, stable
Disadvantages:
Aggressive autokill
(but would not affect music player, doesn't matter to me)
SMS notification light doesn't work
Sent from my A853 using XDA App
be experimental
its a question of what u personally prefer...
aesthetic appeal,lag,bugs gotta be considered..
i use the beta CM6.1.2 milestone port...
its a lill(very lil) laggy but everythin seems to work flawlessly
plus the cpu is overclocked to 900mhz. which is favourable
try diff roms and choose ... but be sure to make a backup of what u already have
I am using for about two weeks ShadowMod B3 and I'm pretty satisfied with it.
Pros :
- fast ;
- ~stable ;
- no battery problems (1d and ~15 hours - moderate use).
Cons :
- can't listen music and play in the same time (player is killed) ;
- some problems with the gallery and with the camera (specially when pressing the camera button) ;
- about ~3 restarts per week (surely the problem is the ROM and not my OC).
BTW , my SMS notification works (green light blinking). :-?
Comparing this to what I've already used (stock Eclair , CM 6.1.2), this is pretty cool, but it would be much nicer is the agressive autokill could be removed.
Thank you for your answers
I saw an outstanding performance of Quadrant on a shadowmodded milestone on Youtube, but I am worried by those bugs: as I can see there are different bugs on different milestones (how is it possible? aren't they sharing the same hardware? )
What do you mean with "Aggressive Autokill"? No multitasking?
while the cons mentioned by Abazel are not reassuring
The little lags on CM are the only issues? I read somewhere that you can no longer mount the SD card via USB and that there are some problems with camera too.
How about random reboots with this ROM?
Thank you again
Pol.
CM 6.1.2 was pretty stable for me but I was a bit laggy (not very much and was ~the single problem I found). ShadowMod b3 it's a bit weird - it works downloading and playing something at the same time but I can't listen to music and play simultaneously - the player is killed => the music starts singing => stops again (thing which could have been done easily under CM 6.1.2). These days I am encountering several problems (restarts or freeze at "Gallery"). I don't know what is the problem. With the SD card i don't have any issues at all... works fine for me. So, if you want improved stability, go for CyanogenMod 6.1.2. If you want a "bumpy ride" , try ShadowMod. ) Have a nice day!
Thank you,
I assume that these are the two best options.
I wonder if CM7 is already stable enough or if it's better to use CM6 since it's already stable.
BTW I believe that ****ijsood is right, I have to be experimental. Just need to find some spare time to waste on this...
Yep, the main problem of shadowmod b3 is the aggressive autokill,
Because of this feature, the phone never lag.
Some think that this autokill is disturbing coz they are used to listening to music and at the same time play game.
But as I never do that, this autokill wouldn't disturb me.....
As this phone has limited ram, there is always a tradeoff....
I am not saying that cm6 is not good. It has the best features and widgets.
But I just cannot stand the laggy feeling
If the Autokill would affect only "heavy" apps like games and music players, maybe it's not so bad.
I think I'll give Shadowmod a try, I can always change again if I find it too buggy.
Thank you for your answers
polengo, or others, sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I was wondering if there are any 'improved" ROMS out there now for the MM1.
I recently acquired a Milestone (3-4 months) running Eclair and it's been kind of quirky. Random freezes, random reboots, laggy, when bluetooth or headphone is disconnected the music player starts on its own. Battery life has been quite good stock, with light to moderate use.
Thanks.
Cm7 for me has been the best. I have had one random reboot in the past couple weeks. runs smooth, and the battery life is as good as any other rom ive tried.
Well, right now, I think the best rom around is latest CM7 or HONOmod. Although, you might want to give a try to CM6 or Luca's froyomod, if you need an extra piece of ram. The only drawback with froyo based roms right now is the lack of active development. You have to face that MM1 is an old piece of hardware right now!

The CM9 Alpha runs quiet smooth.
I use it in my daily life.
Trying to install HO!NO! using clockworkmod and keep getting (error 7). I am not seeing this error with other roms. I tried toggling the signature verification and that only pushed the error back a few more seconds. Should I move the file out of openrecovery directory and place it in the nandroid directory and ask Nandroid to perform a backup using the HO!NO! zip file? In other words, should I use your zip as a backup and not as a rom? I look forward to checking your ROM out. The buzz is pretty exciting. Thanks.
**Edit**
My bad, wrong thread. please delete.
I have the 16GB Vodafone UK Galaxy S. Today I was in a city trying to use satnav and it was rank rotten. So I thought I'd see if an upgrade would do it. I was using the very first Froyo that Vodafone came out with - I upgraded to that and hadn't upgraded since. I did have it rooted and 1 click lag fix was on it.
I upgraded to Gingerbread just there, sadly I had to do a factory reset, however it's all working.
I have realised that if I am going to put a custom firmware on it then now is just the right time to do it.
Is there one out there that's stable, and an improvement over the Gingerbread I'm using? Particularly I'd like it to fix the lag (if that still needs fixed) and even better would be fixing GPS/Satnav.
Pinpong blockbuster rom - ticks all your boxes. Get faster fix from market.
Your gps will never be 100% satisfactory in the city, in fact it will probably always be poor - no matter what custom rom you use.

Have you think about CM7? Great Rom, works well on my phone, and add many new things.
Hi Mate, I tried many custom roms and finally settled for
(ROM)GingerCriskeloV77-9LS-CamHack- SIP + NoIncRing I9000/T/M JVP 2.3.4
Cheers
Well, I managed to get it on. Booting up is weird though, it looks for a long time as if the screen is broken, but eventually ti comes on to the Blockbuster lock screen and then everything is fine. It does seem faster - but I'll only really know when I get to one of those situations where I feel the phone is frustratingly slow.
Thanks very much Woolf!
Time allowing I'll give the other roms a shot, although this Blockbuster one does seem to be good enough for me.
Sadly my phone now reboots constantly. it seems to do it when the screen locks

Check you got the installation right for that rom, maybe you had to flash a jvp stock first or some similar omission?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Sorry to hear you're having issues. Try flashing to a totally stock JVQ first (with repartition) once you've backed up, then if you don't like that, try a custom ROM. I don't think many JVQ custom ROMs are worth trying if you want a taste of custom ROMs. Better to try CM7 or MIUI for something fast and different.
As a side note, the best tip I've seen for fixing the dreadful GPS we have with the i9000 is to buy a Nexus S or just ANY other phone! Yes, some radios appear better than others, but nobody can prove anything and it's almost all subjective feedback. A drop in the ocean of improvement needed for satisfactory function. If you must use it, a bluetooth GPS receiver and 3rd party navigation app seem the best way to deal with it.
I've now stepped away from Blockbuster. Even doing the a perfect install it crashed often and repeatedly. I did try upgrading to the very latest and that crashed several times in the past hour. Part of the problem was the rom starts with a lockscreen that has a messaging unlock on it, but it isn't set to an app that comes with the rom, so it reboots every time. Sadly that wasn't the only problem, as I was still getting loads of reboots.
So that's out of the way.
I'm now a lot more comfortable using Odin so I'll be able to try other options. I'll try the other two suggested in this thread first of all.
Next to test is CM7.
Thanks for the help folks!
CM7 aborted. Instructions are incorrect, the file they say to download doesn't actually match the instructions so that's out. Plus it clearly states it's not suitable for day to day use... so I don't thnk the time in working out how to fix it is justified since it looks like it wouldn't be useful.
I'm going back to the original question in the thread, to say that I'm looking for something stable. I now think that a custom rom is not the way to go. However some modifications may well be.
Can anyone suggest some kind of lagfix/speedup that isn't a complete overhaul like CM7, Blockbuster etc, that is very stable and that'll make my phone faster?
Edit : Part of what I was doing to install Blockbuster was install Speedmod kernel. So I've gone and put that on, and used the clockwork mod to root it, and also convert to ext4. I think things are looking pretty fast so far. I'm not sure if there's a lagfix for this, but I'm quite comfortable just now footering around - unlike the complete rom I don't feel out of my depth. So I think I'll be ok for now.
hi
with the latest 2.3.3 update
does the sgs1 still have those problems the sgs1 had
if yes
does cm7 fix it?
thanks

Hi,
You've missed some steps or you were in long holidays?
SGS1 is already on JVT 2.3.5
There's no problems at all and it works as it should be.
Have a look at DEV threads, there's many good roms and kernels.

I don't recommend samsung stock ginger roms. Samsung doesn't care about correcting serious bugs so i'm not using them. Worse for me is the one that makes the phone use battery after charging to 100% even with the power cord plugged in, which, by the way, isn't corrected as you can check here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134741&page=29
That was a dealbreaker to me. Went froyo with a darky kernel until cyanogen 7.1 stable showed up. Also, i haven't been keeping up with custom samsung based roms, but at the time none were addressing this bug as well.
Been using cyano since it was released and i definitely recommend it. v2.3.7, phone's fast and no charging bug (didn't come across any other bug as well), decent battery (to me that means easily a day, i never got anymore than that ever with any rom with my usage) and tons of cool customization (my favs are the ability to customize your status bar with whatever buttons you want, profiles, DSP manager and, of course voodoo sound)
Only quirk i have are LED notifications not working properly with sms's (using handcent) for some reason. They do for everything else though. I'll live.
I did see several people saying otherwise about cyanogen, so take this with a grain of salt. I may be just a lucky guy but i'm yet to experience any problems.

thank you for your input
i dont know why samsung is ignoring the sgs1 while the sgs2 is awesome because of how samsung has approached its target market ( gave free i9100s for the cm team (hacksung team) and also one of the best optimized version of android ive seen on a phone
I would not discard stock rom with a good kernel without giving it a try. I'm personnaly very happy with jvt + semaphore + some aosp mods.
As always, your milage might vary, you'll have to make your own judgement.

well as i'm not having any issues with JVT + semaphore kernel, i can only recommend this combination.
I have the best battery life ever. charged over night, disconnect at 6.30 am. using internet (~1h), mp3player (~ 2h), (display brightness low) and i'm having 66%.
i have tested roms like darky, simplicity, goa, and they havent such a good battery life.
thank you all
first i try stock jvt
after that ill play with different kernels
again thank you
Hi guys,
I am really losing it with my girlfriend's P990 (originally vodafon branded on the german o2 network). On stock this phone was a nightmare: random crashes, laggy launcher, random reboots / powerdowns etc made it a completely aweful experiance. So I said: ok this should be an easy fix, just install a custom rom and those problems should be gone. Since then I have tried:
- several Modaco Roms
- latest Euro Open Stock LG update (Smartflash)
- Topoggigi with Service Packs and different kernels
- Gueste2x 2.2 with different kernels
- Gueste2x 3.0 and 3.1 with different kernels
- all sorts of different basebands on the roms mentioned above
While I really appreciate the work the devs are doing and the system works alot faster however none of the roms really fixed the other problems: some lost reception, some had non working / freezing wlan, others had gps problems and there are still random shutdowns when the phone is idle.
Can anyone recommend a rom / baseband / ril combination that just works? It's for my gf's phone so I don't need all the ramhacks, undervolt, overclock, underclock gimmicks, I just want a stable phone working for everyday use which does not shut itself off, she does not even care if it's froyo or gingerbread based.
I was trying to avoid pure cm7, which I use and love on my own phone, because well, I can already hear her complain how everything looks different
Big thanks in advance for your tips and suggestions.
For the simple user, with no UV / OC or any tweaks...and great stability and not matching your CM 7 in appearance(obviously urs and hers should not match mate....cause the BOSS is always different...dont take this serious...just joking)
one of the best ROMs I have used was the Topo's 2 with SP3...BBV20E with matching RIL(use GetRIL). If you want stability....the first thing I can think about is Topo's ROM....many developers themselves will agree on this point...he was a big inspiration for the upcoming devs.
Coming to the point of tweaks...this ROM with Spica's HP SR1 Kernel was one of the best results I ever had....three days of battery perf and almost 99.9% trouble free....dont look for 0.01%....you will probably never find tht.
Coming to the point of freezes....or random reboot...i found this hardly in this ROM....nevertheless, you also need to check the correct BB and matching RIL...which you will find in the relevant thread.
tweaks in this....they dont bother your stability....and still remains one of the best GB ROMs.
If you want more info...maybe u can PM me or add your comments to this thread....
But, a word of caution...you will never be satisfied, with the amount of variety and features the other ROMs offer....u still want more....Have flashed more than 14ROMs in less than 4months.thats how the life of a O2X owner is.....and I am enjoying it

Thank you for your quick reply, and yes I agree on the boss part =)
I had topos rom on her phone (with another baseband though) but I had 2 problems:
on SR1 kernel:
with wifi sleep policy set to never wlan just stopped working after being connected for a while: it still showed the wlan connected + full reception icon in the statusbar but no data went through untill I manually turned it off and on again.
To fix that I switched the kernel on his rom (I cannot remember exactly to which one) which fixed the wlan issues but caused the phone to randomly lose all mobile reception until a manual reboot. Maybe this was caused by a wrong baseband. According to getril baseband and ril were a match though.
Other than that the rom was perfect (especially battery life)...but those 2 issues made it useless for an everyday rom. Especially because both bugs happend several times a day.
BTW: Topo recommends using the LGP990AT-00-V20c-EUR-XX-AUG-02-2011+0_CP.fls baseband, not the 20E you mentioned.
Why are you so sure it's software?
I bought a P990 almost two weeks ago, been giving it some nice usage (GPS, Wifi, 3G, a lot of gaming in the subway) still on stock software and I've had ZERO issues with it.
Why didn't you try to complain to your vendor about your faulty phone and get a new one?
you seem to be one of a lucky few then, because from what I hear from other owners of the phone it really IS a buggy phone. Have you tried to return a phone based on lags and errors which seem to occur randomly...it is not like I can reproduce the shutdown / reboot problems, anyway returning it is not an option anymore.
Mate,
you are right...Topo recommended the BB you have mentioned. But, if you have observed the complete changelog....then you may see the v2.0 with SP3 is made with V20E as the base. Personally, I used this and had no issues until unfortunately Topo's father fell ill and also the other ROMs came in, to give a variety.
Your wifi dropping might be a BB-RIL combo....you need to change the RIL according to region, operator and call quality etc....the app suggests a few RILs(if you have noticed in LG RIL Version or Get RIL app)....
In addition to this, there is also a V20M version made by another developer which alsy was working perfectly good...infact a few pple think that V20M is one good version which was a fix to BSOD and also better battery perf....
I am presently changing quite often between Django and Civato ROMs....and I have no issues with these ROMs. I have tried Gueste 3.1 which is very stable, great perf and fluidity...but the matter of changing to more what I am used to...
There are a great deal of variety and feature packed ROMs in the O2X cabinet and we need to be testing and staying which appeals the best in different terms for our satisfaction.

lol that's what I have been trying and the reason for this post. My problem is that I can flash a new baseband / rom / ril after work and test everything like wifi, gps, mobile internet and reception when I am at home. When everything *seems* to work I give the phone back to my gf hoping it's fine now. When she has the phone over the day and comes back in the evening and reports errors, so I start over again. That makes the whole process pretty tedious and I was hoping for a recipe, maybe from another user on a german network to shorten the whole process. But you already gave me a few tips I will also try next!

I don't know where you're from, but from where I'm from you usually have a two-week no questions asked refund period. And yes, I have tried to return electronic devices based on random problems within this period and usually I don't have any problems. Especially if I'm looking for a replacement for the same phone and not just my money back (I know some people who abuse this two-week period and try almost every phone there is... they almost don't need to buy phones...)
If you're outside this two-week period it might be trickier, I admit. But still I was just trying to be helpful. No matter what we do there will always be products with faulty hardware, and this faulty hardware might cause random lags and errors... if this is your case nothing you do will solve the problem, except for a replacement, that's why I suggested it.
And yes, I do realize I'm lucky. Before I bought the phone I did a lot of reading and I read about the random crashes, and saw people saying that a custom rom usually fixed it, so I was already prepared for this. But I'm not experiencing any of it so I'm happy.
Nonetheless I wish you the best of luck!
Gueste2X v3.1 with Temasek Turbo kernel and 218 BB works great for me.
Best ROM I've ever tried.
Reception drops and Wifi problems can be caused by BB not correctly installed.
No offense intended, but are you sure you did that correctly? Because I've seen manuals for installing BB which are outdated, wrong or just lack important data. I flashed my BB in a wrong way before.
Since you are German:
http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/lg_op...-lg_optimus_speed_p990_aktuelle_baseband.html
I am using temasek`s latest KANG-54, its smooth and stable. No problems whatsoever. Oh, and just today i flashed the kernel to ETaNa. Will see how that goes.
Thanatos2x v5.1 -> been using this for a few weeks now, came from Modaco GR5. It's really a very good rom. Fast, stable, not to different from stock LG. I'm using the 725 BB from v20o (with the RIL that came with the rom), tho get ril suggests I get the RIL from v10d NL (since I live in Holland). Haven't tried it since this setup just works great. Reception is good, battery lasts the whole day easily, no reboots or freezes...
After testing several ROMs I decided to use a ROM which won't let me miss a call. I chose MACODO GR6 . It's the most stable ROM I've ever tested. I'm tired of using buggy ROM just for the speed.
thank you guys for your recommendations!
Now I know what to check out next =)
Hello,
recently my phone P880 ceases to function correctly. For example the problem with the gsm signal and 3G, someone still say me that I am inaccessible and he can not call me. When I try to call someone, the phone say SIM card disconnect, the signal is out and then after seconds again say reading sim card and then everything looks normal (this happen mostly when data are enabled, but sometimes also on wifi). Then in 70% calls (does not depend if incoming or outcoming) the mic does not work at all. I can hear anyone on the other side but he cannot hear me. When I hang up and call back everything works fine. And the last but not least the phone is really slow, sometimes I have to kill all apps if I want do something (write message, read email) or wait until the phone unfreeze (very annoying when I want to recieve call and I have to wait aprox 10-15 sec till the screen light up). In the phone there is almost nothing installed (just few apps which I really use), but still the RAM is always full at >80%.
I am curently running on stock 4.1.2 and decide to try something more lightweight to save battery and ram, but I have absolutely no idea which ROM is currently stable and working, so if you can recommend me some (I would prefer something on 4.4.x but it does not matter).
Thanks to everyone for response
Hello,
First Question: Which Baseband-Version is installed?
I can say that 4.4 is not as good as Stock.
Root, install CWM (Dont know if you had to open bootloader when only installing kernel and script?), install Titanium Backup or similar and remove the Bloatware! Then Install Iodak v9.5 and maybe Tegra4Binary and Phone is quick.

Good Luck!
I am back on 4.1 stock just to test some things and after 10 hours on it i cant wait to get back to 4.4.x roms...I cant see any advantages of stock rom except visual ones (lg gui).U should write why is for you stock better i am curious.

Thank you for reply,
For the radio I include screenshot. The bootloader is unlocked, I did it about a 3/4 year ago but since this time I did not make any SW changes so now I am totally lost in the number of roms which are avable nowadays (last I was to change the system there was only bugged and not stable version).
E: For the GUI, it is not bad but when the homescreen (launcher) have to reboot everytime when I close (jump out) some apps there is something wrong.
E2: And also sometimes the light sensor does not work (I can move with the brigthness slider but nothing happen,I have to uncheck the automatic setting then I can change the brightness)
Did you try fleahing stock again via lg flesh tool ? Or.restoring backup if u have it ?

Because of the high battery drainage on use at CM. Stock has about 6 hours screen on.
There are quiet nice functions, like Quickmemo that i dont want to miss. (And better App compatibility sometimes... see "Whatsapp SIM")
The Performance is better than CM11 if you remove bloatware and flash Iodak Kernel/T4-Binary. Then gaming is nice too.
+ FM-Radio
I know that a phone with the newest security updates is nice, but when i flash CM i flash back in the next 1-3 days ...
But you can think otherwise over this!

If u manage to get 6 hours on screen time then u have 7000 mAh battery or you have some other phone since no one managed to get more then 4+ hours on this phone especialy on stock so this thing that you said is completly nonsence.There are apps that can replace quickmemo app on custom roms,iodak kernel is NOT working properly on stock rom (that is know fact evey iodak sayed it himself u can read it on iodak kernel thread) and for the last option u can use Spirit FM which is working great on CM-Liquid -Slim and all others custom roms.
P.S.Show us some proof for that 6 hours on screen time or your coment will be probably deleted by moderators since it is as i sad completly nonsence.
Will add Screenshot ASAP.
PS: Having no issues with Iodak 9.5 ... but 8 should work for everyone.
And here we go again. I want to call, signal lost, dial has been suspended, than I've got black screen with message "Reorganization of internal processes. Try it later". There is probably some problem with the firmware or something like that, I don't think it is HW problem. I will try some alternate ROM then I will write result.
EDIT: I try to find if someone have same problem and I found it on LG Optimus 3D:
Problems on Rogers Canada too. Both Rogers and LG deny any knoledge of the exsistance of this issue. I updated my phone in the middle of February, seemed ok for a week or so, then ghost calls and missed texts started happening. I have restored it and even reinstalled the firmware fresh a few times and the problem just keeps getting worse, in addition, I now have random loss of data connection, "reorganizing internal process" for 2-3 minutes wen I try to make an outgoing call and occasionaly my phone will ring and ring indeffenately when I miss a call even though I have voice mail, and I must restart my phone to stop the ringing. Thank you for running this story as I want everyone on earth to know I will never buy any LG product again due to there "deny the problem" approch to customer support, and I hope no one else does either. BTW, anyone want to buy a used LG Phone, TV, DVD Player, Sterio or Washer and Dryer? Next time I buy a different brand period.

I am on the same carrier as CaptianJack, same exact issues. Called "Carlos" at LG Support, said ICS 4 was due in 2nd or 3rd quarter. He then said possibly July.
My issues on 2.3.5
- Occasional missed text messages
- occasional missed calls
- long "reorganizing internal process" delays, can't make calls until it finishes.
- having to restart phone when phone when in 2G, loses signal then fails to regain 4G in known good area unless reboot
- longer camera loading times than previous 2.2
- choppy 3D video recordings

I can say that 4.4 is not as good as Stock.

Stock kernel is good at keeping the phone cool, actually that's the only thing it is good at.Stock ROM + iodak kernel burns your phone, for real.Try it on CM11 and stock ROM, stock ROM heats it up a lot more.
Stock ROM is only good if you don't know how to customize a ROM properly.CM11 gives you the ability to have the control over your phone.In stock you can just change kernel, remove a few apps and just keep going on.
If you think 4.4 is worse, it's only cause you have no idea how to customize a ROM.
"The Performance is better than CM11 if you remove bloatware and flash Iodak Kernel/T4-Binary. Then gaming is nice too."
That's totally a lie.CM11 has less system requirements afterall.And LG is famous for making crap ROMs.For how many minutes have you used CM11? 1 or 2?

Remove bloatwares, services, whatever you want but stock ROM is full of bugs that you can face even from the first day.
If you want a phone with less bugs, install CM11.You don't expect us to fix an old ROM which is full of bugs, minor or major.
What? CM11 was daily driver in official and inofficial builds...
But i know, the most are in love with Cyanogen, what do you mean with customize?
