[Q] What's the best, most stable, less buggy ICS ROM for i9000?

What are you using and which kernel are you using it with?

Hi!
I've used almost all ICS roms and I think "CodeNameAndroid" and "Nexus S Port by EliteV9"(the base of my rom) are the best ones in this moment

I'd recommend Slim ICS, really good rom, quick and good battery life. I'm using it with Semaphore 0.9.7b, everything seems to work pretty well. Currently in the process of trying different modems for it, trying to get a better gps fix.

Nexus S Port by EliteV9.1

I am using the MIUI-2.3.33 from lucainno
With 3.1.10 IcyGlitch Kernel. But it really needs much energy...

best rom
I think , IMM76D ELITE V 9.1 WITH DEVIL 2_0.62 KERNAL........is the best conf. u ever get till now...............devil kernel was just awsome.....402MB ram...............just go with these confi.

I have try the Elite v9 it is a really good rom.
But now that CodeNameAndroid would be based on ICS 4.0.4 I will try it to
Usually I use the semaphore kernel but it is a personal preference.

I am very happy with my Cyanogenmod 9 AOSP nightly builds.
I am using the latest nightly buid (2012-04-02)
And i am really pleased with the performance!
Installation was done with CWM and easy as pie!

My fav is AOKP build 28 with devil2_0.62 kernel.

most stable rom
flash IMM76D ELITE V9.1 with DEVIL KERNAL 2_0.62.........390MB RAM..............................the best combination so far..............n stable

Elite 9.1, 4.0.4 aosp based, without any doubt.

Best Rom
Here ELite`s v9.1 4.04 with Kernel Devil 0.6.2
WOrks like a charm!!

can someone who used slim v3.1 with semaphore .9.8sbm please compare with elite v9.1 rom?is it better than slim 4.0.4 version?
also does devil kernel 402 mb version break HD playback and other formats?semaphore .9.8sbm only breaks 720p recording.playback and everything else just fine.

best one : INFINITUM-v1.1.0 with glitch kernel

Elite 9.1 and devil2 0.64. So far so fast and stable with as good battery life as darkyrom GB.
Tried dark knight 4, lots of minor lag and fc here and there.

I'm quite happy with Team ICSSGS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398223 and RC4.2. Have been using it for some time now and so far didn't discover any deal breakers.

Am happy with Team ICSSGS R4.2 at the moment (with Semaphore 1.0.0s)... Stable with decent performance...
They are working on R5 so, expect that to be awesome as well...

EXTRAordinary_4.0.4_beta9
Among all ICS ROM I have tested (which is many about 1234 ) this one is one of better but of course with other kernel ( midnight ICS 0.90-2 - faster and more stable).Battery life is great almost two days.Only one problem I can`t solve ,I try to fix Google Store but still have problem (Update for Google play could not be downloaded due an error 940 ) . Any help ?.....For now this is the best ICS ROM...i think...

Tiramisù 1.7 and Midnight 0.9.0-2 Hugeram

What ICS-Rom is good for daily use

Hey guys,
I'm reading a lot of posts regarding ICS-Roms and I'm confused:
Which one should I flash onto my SGS if I want the most stable experience?
Thanks for your kind help

DK3 + Devil2 0.67 kernel
I use DarkKnight 3 (not 4 which is buggy) with Devil2 0.67 kernel and all works just great! Form me its perfect for daily use in terms of stability and usability. No issues at all. But you may want to try yourself which rom works best for you...

try AOKP B32 with semaphore kernel...
its a gr8 rom... not found any bugs so far

infinitum
I just started using infinitum and very happy with it.
Installation of the roms is quite simple and straightforward so you could easily try a bunch out and make your own mind.

Slim ICS, Elite,Doc's

Cm9 nightly

Been trying to decide between CM9 nightly and SLIM ICS.
Right now I feel Slim a litle faster and lighter (with semaphore BM kernel is really great).

Remix all the Way
This is the best ROM I have ever tested

My Hat goes off
only niggle I have is the boot animation strobe - a little too aggressive

I am on CM9 latest build and have no problems so far. I was on Darky rom before with lagfix enabled.

+1 The Infinitum v2 currently based on B31 is really great and keeps the battery happy. (With semaphore 1.0.0s) Check it out, some claim it the best ICS AOKP rom out.

I have to say from my experience one cosmics ICSSGS RC 4.1 or 4.2 is perfect. I have had very few problems and it proper stock Ics which I love, I find all the added extras just make problems.

Iv been on and off teamhacksung's cm9 since build 9 and since build 14 iv been using it as a daily. iv got absolutly no complaints it is a great rom and now with the nightlys it is getting better and better. Im a big follower in the cm series but best thing to do us read some of the development forums and see wich tickles your fancy

I'm currently on ICSSGS 4.2 with Semaphore 0.9.7. I do work, play games, text, chat, etc..
Only grief I have with my phone right now is the GPS is borked. In some apps.
Can't wait for RC5 though. It's supposed to just rock!

Easy.
Latest CM9 Nightly. So damn good. Fast as a running cat! GPS works just fine, wifi works fine.
I'm also using Infinitys blue theme over that so it's pretty awsome!

Slim ICS is the best one I ever tried. Strongly recommend mate.

agreed...though i use 0.67b

CM9 nightly 14.04 with devil 0.67 is the best for me.

I think Slim ICS 3.3 with 0.67 devil kernel

that's up to you
it depends on what do you prefer. you have to try some roms. For me is important how offen the developer updates his rom, if it is stable and handy and easy to update. After trying dozen of roms and som kernels my favourite is Slim ICS in combination with Sempahore Kernel 1.2.0.s with hugemem option (399Mb RAM)
Slim ICS is highly optimizable, really fast and with semaphore you get some cherries like voodoo sound option, other governors, schedulers etc..
If i compare it to some GB stock roms, where you have 320 Mb ram or something like that, i have to laugh :

I have flashed quite a few roms (Elite, EXTRAordinary, AOKP, etc.). One of the best that I have experienced is INFINITUM LBR 1.1.1. This rom is smooth, good battery, rom control, OTA updates and plenty of available ram. You will not regret flashing this rom :thumbup:

Slim ICS, CM9 nightly and Dark Knight (and so Elite too)

The best around Dark Knight v5.5 da fast & stable

After probing diferent ICS roms, the best for mi is MIUI.4-SpeeD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1548796

Every single ROM is good. My fav is ICSSGS with Devil kernel. I tried Slim ICS and tiny bugs and glitches let it down. Also, in slim ics I had some SIM problemsand the icons are tiny. CM9 is a battery eater.

ICS or JB

Hi,
I'm looking for ICS Or JB rom 'cause i'm using CM9 nightly but it's old build but i have problems when tried to download newer build and i have been thinking that should i try other roms too? I want a rom which has just few small bugs or no bugs at all. So, should i just try again and try download CM9 or try another rom?

You can try CM10, it's OK for daily use. Has minor bugs but nothing serious.

It's a little early for JB, give it some time to get stable.
ICS have come a long way and is now amazing for daily use. You can try here: https://www.fixmystuff.in/FMS_Forum...wich-4-0-4-in-samsung-galaxy-s-g-t-i9000.125/

CM 10 is working great but for a simple, stable ROM I would recommend that you give slim ICS a go. I never had a problem with it, from 3.9 to 4.2.

I'm using GNex Beta 6.1 (JB) and coming from TiramiSlim 2.0 (ICS) which are blazing fast ROMs .
Loved the easy installation of TiramiSlim with the Aroma installer
But give JB a try,daily juse can be recommended

For ICS, I recommend cm9 blueberry.

I'm on ICS333 2.0.1 by Team 3xtr3m3 with Semaphore 1.3.0 and i love it. Give it a try. He is also working on a JB Version.

I've been using CM9 for a while but with time it ended up lagging a lot. A switched to SlimICS with Semaphore kernel a few weeks ago and I'm impressed. It's fast and doesn't have bugs (at least in my experience). Absolutely recommended and looking forward to switch to SlimBean as soon as it gets stable for daily use.

Best ICS for Galaxy S
i am a amature with softwares but very much addicted in changing the ROM in my Galaxy S . i switched to custom ROMS in GB itself (Can't wait till the updates from samsung)
I tried various ICS but ended up in somany lags mainly losing my IMEI (which made me sleepless many nights)
Finally now am with Team 3xtr3m3 IMM76L ICS333 2.0.1 & kernel 3.0.8 Semaphore_ICS_1.2.2s. for the past 2-3 months.
am controlling my urge to switch to JB.
am expecting Team 3xtr3m3 JB
Thanks to Team 3xtr3m3 as am enjoying my Galaxy S:good:

I would recommend you to download the newest build of CM9 Nightly, or CM9 RC2 and stay with it some more time. I've been using it for a very long time and I had no problems. Currently I'm using CM10 and I can only say that it's not stable at all yet. You shold wait a while for JB

Thanks, i'm using CM9 now and no bugs! But i'm interested in the TiramiSlim rom.
Is it fast and is it more stable than CM9?

I have no comparison with CM9. I've been using TiramiSlim v.2.0 for a month and I don't complain. Installation is very easy, you may choose what do you want. Compared to GB I can use my SGS longer without a reboot.

Could you give me instructions how to install tiramislim?

In TiramiSlim thread is instruction of installation. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664049
From SD card, using CWM I installed this ROM. Sometimes you may have problems, e.g. with camera. So install ROM again. Reinstall often solves this problem.
Good luck!

I can absolutely recommend SlimICS. It is fast and stable. I've used it together with Semaphore Kernel and it was nearly perfect.
Though I made the switch to SlimJB now it is just because of one reason. The available space for apps is limited because of the size of the datadata partition. SLIMJB got rid of that partition so I don't have the low memory message anymore. And it has Semaphore Kernel as default.
So for daily use just install SlimICS. You can find it in the development section. I can't post URLs yet. But you can Google SlimICS and it should give you the proper link.

Slim ICS definitely

I know SlimICS is very good rom but i'm interested in TiramiSlim because it has more languages (or finnish language which is my language) and it has more features than SlimICS.

I recommend TiramiSlim, used some time (because no Polish language in SlimICS) and it work flawless :laugh:
Actually i test JB roms (X-Bean now) and thinking about return to TiramiSlim

I wonder, if language pack from OTA (from TiramiSlim) runs properly with SlimICS. Has anybody tried it?
Then we would have SlimICS with others languages.

Tiramislim
Hmm just looked at tiramislim and its based of slim ICS and runs extremely well I say go for that it has more features as you said

[SOLVED] Kernel recommendation for Jellybam ROM (CM10.1)

Hey guys,
currently running Jellybam 5.2.0 on my phone (JB 4.2.1), a great ROM, however I am not that content with the Kernel (which is CM kernel).
Games ran better and smoother on the stock ICS ROM with stock Kernel, also I got better scores on Quadrant.
Can you guys recommend an alternative Kernel that I can use with this ROM? Already tried HydracoreNirvana n6 and it got stuck at boot screen.
Thanks in advance

Guys I need some help...also very sorry if this is a nooby question...

Performance of stock kernels will be better than normal cm kernel.
Try rhythm kernel, you can overclock it...
