Best Ice Cream Sandwich Rom ???

I am rooting the phone for the first time so I want to know which is the best available ICS rom which has least bugs. I need basic things to work such as wifi and bluetooth. I want all the steps to complete the procedure. It will be really helpful if any one could give me some links. I could have searched but I have no idea which one is the best so please help me.

I have not yet started I need links to begin the process right from the scratch.

All ICS roms have bugs. Look in Dev thread for CM9 or AOKP.
Spend at least 4 hours reading how to prepare and install, 2 hours reading what to do when unexpected things happen during/after flash, and 1 hour being sorry wasting your and others time on such impossible question usually followed by biased opinions.

Don't flash ICS. wait for stable JB rom

As far as i experienced slim ics and cm9 are the best out there ...

In terms of which ROM is best, unfortunately there is no answer.
Each rom is different (obviously) so people prefer different roms that fit their different needs.
I'd personally recommend something like SlimICS, TiramiSLIM, or DarkyROM Black Edition.
Slim ICS is a cut down version, no extravagant features.
TiramiSLIM has an easy installation process (if already rooted) and has lots of customization options.
DarkyROM is one of my favourites, but I just upgraded to Jellybean.
You want to know all the steps to installation?
One of the best guides I've found is for the Team 3xtr3me ICS333 rom.
Link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25722239#post25722239
It goes through installation of a rooted Gingerbead (2.3) rom via odin, which is the part most ROM installation guides assume you have already done.
From there you should be able to follow almost any ROM's guide for installation.
Hope this helped.

Don't flash another thing than Cyanogenmod nightlies.
Maybe AOKP. But prefer cyanogenmod. Accelerometer still broken on AOKP. No point of it. (Please don't comment temple runners.)

As kernel, flash latest devil kernel. Don't think another choice. Every kernel is nice. Semaphore is as nice as decil. But devil has more customization choices.

When you're a bit into the flashing thing you coult try RemICS, which has best design for me and is very smoothe and fast as well.

CYANOGENMOD 9 !!! The best of all no bug no problem very fast and I use it for months with devil3.99 kernel
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592131

Hmm... to lazy to find out how to root, what's the difference (if significant) between roms, what to do when that pesky bootloop happen,.... so just start yet another thread for the bragging hordes?
"...... rom is smooth, bugfree, snapping fast, will make you breakfast? , has looongest bat. life,... "

You can try AOKP. I've been using it since a month and I can say that it's quite smooth and well developed. Try it and u won't regret.

My personal favourite. Slim ICS
But look at this benchmark thread and decide for yourself.

SlimIcs. Smooth and stable. But an advice , I personally hate lightning launcher so as soon as I get it I uninstall it and installed N.o.v.a. launcher

I have the same opinion. I currently use CM9 latest nightlies. Best kernels are Devil and Semaphore. I prefer CM9 + Devil kernel. But you could really wait for stable JB...

I've tried several ICS roms and, for me, the better one is Remics. Version 1.3 is already out, but I'm in 1.2 and I don't feel any need of upgrading it!

[Q] Which is the most stable Custom ROM?

Hi Guys! I am a bit lost here due to the number of ROMS available for this device.
My mom owns this phone, and she would love to get an update for her phone. She currently runs stock, and I was wondering which custom ROM do you think would be most stable.
It doesn't have to be the best. The most important part is the stability of the ROM. My mom is nowhere near techy. She even gets lost in Facebook. So I don't want to complicate things for her during her use. She needs a custom rom with memory managment but stable. ICS would be great and all, but she can stay in Gingerbread if that is the only stable ROM available.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this! Have a great day ahead!

Well if your mom is not all that techie then don't make a leap to a custom rom, the only 100% fully stable rom is the stock one right now. If you want, root the phone for her. If she wants an ICS look install Holo Launcher and get some ICS wallpapers, that is the best you can get to making the phone ICS-like.
But as for your question, the most stable are these:
1. Stocklite v7.1 (Closest thing to stock, but better because it gets rid of the Samsung bloatware.)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703094
2. Apocalypse ROM (CM 7.2 based for best perfromance i.e. faster gps locks, better memory optimization etc, but you will take a battery hit, not a lot but battery drain will be higher here)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1700749
I've used both of these roms for months on end and they never game me any problems, so you are safe with anyone you choose.
Happy Flashing.

I came across the Apocalypse ROM in my search. It looked promising. Nice to know a confirmation from a user. Thank you very much!
Hopefully I won't have to keep maintaining the phone for her. I am used to having my data backed up and wiped, then restored, but she doesn't like the whole flashing cycle.
Thanks again! I will proceed with the installation tonight.

Most Stable ICS Rom
Hi Pals, which would be the most stable ICS Rom out here.
Please help me, i am new to this forum.

Myth 2 for me hands down + INT2EXT+ = best thing to happen to your Ace.

Thanks for the suggestions guys! I went ahead with apocalypse for now, but when the ICS or JB builds get more stable, I might offer her another update. For now she is really happy with it.

i think for stable custom rom, you can choose :
- apocalypse
- droidace V2
- Miracle V4
but if you want something different, you can choose new MIUIXXX rom, im still using it n i love it..

I agree with him, use the MIUI GB ROM MIUIXXX. It is really smooth and stable + it has free themes like Vapor Ice online.

Really? I haven't tried any MIUI build before. As far as I know, they were built to imitate the iOS with now app dock, right?

Hello, I recommend an old and good CM7.2fat and CM7.2 democracy, now I'm on android 4.0.4 CM9 from maclaw and also I'm happy.
CM7.2 fat is rather most stable of these have given.

Hey try adrenaline final, its the simple and best ROM you can find, give a try. You would like it.

Hmmmmm, asking people on forum can help you, but you should try every ROM you want (every ROM works different on every phone)
U can try too MIUI v4 2.10.19 from @rtfpessoa. (just my small recomendation)

As at the moment, i using stock gingerbread rom as it is most stable. But you could try cm10 jb rom or slim bean, they are quite ok for daily use.

Most posters in this thread probably won't see this because they're too busy swallowing the bait
Why do people keep asking this impossible "... BEST" question?
Answers is at best biased contribution to pi$$ing competition.
The most chaired rom doesn't mean it's THE Best. Actually reveals more about the chairer...
User pattern, preferences, even hardware differences make it impossible to give usable advice.
Every rom is good, every rom is bad.
TS get away with it being a rookie, but the contributors should know better. There is a reason you don't find threads like this - they're closed.

I tested today more for i9000. I think the most stable is 4.0.4 from AOKP and currently a stay here

cyanogen 10 or slim bean are excellent compromises in terms of performance and stability.

Cm10 is the best solution for our phone.

X-Bean 3.0 + Semaphore 2.4.4s running smooth & stable here. Never had reboots, lag etc. Good for daily use.

After 2 weeks on cm9.1+semaphore 1.3.0 I flashed a couple of days ago cm10 m2 and I am very happy about it
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

The problem is, a lot of JB ROMs have poor battery life due to a 3G drain bug.

Had the carrier stock GB 2.3.4 for a year. Went to CM 9.1 stable. Tried it stock and with semaphore kernel 1.3.0. A few days ago I flashed CM10 M2 and I am not going back.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

anyone know what rom go video calls?

ics333 was my favourite. Hasn't been updated in a while though

CM 9.1 last nightly + stock kernel = fast, stable and reliable, haven't tried CM 10 though, many people claim that it is laggy

slim bean
by far, slim bean 2.7

Any latest jb rom with latest semaphore jb kernel (cm10)

I think Slimbean

This is/was/will always be the best:

I used to have stock Gingerbread on my SGS I9000. Then I switched to DarkyROM ICS, which was okay. After a while I came across the SlimRoms website, which was still developing Slim ICS at the time, so I flashed ICS, which was brilliant. Shortly after the Slim team started working on SlimBean, and after reaching a stable version I tried it for myself, a decision I am glad I made.
SlimBean is by far the lightest, fastest ROM I've used so far. Give it a try for yourself and you'll see how amazing, lag-free it is. I'm using version 3.1 with the Semaphore kernel version 2.6.2s.

Hi,
I've flashed many roms on my i9000 : Miui, cyanogen 7, Cyanogen 9, Jelly Bean, ICs..... but for me the best one is the JW8 SAUROM.
Stable, fast, GS3 Theme and a very good battery life !!
Since i am on this rom i don't want to flash another one !

Slim 3.1 with semaphore 2.6
If someone help me i definitely HIT THANKS....

Your question must be more specific, and I'll try to explain...
In my opininon the are only 2 developers team which should be considered, first CyanogeneMod which leads because of it's bigger number of devs (so more supported devices). 2nd is AOKP, which I personally prefer because it's more designale and more good looking, but also very stable. I've tested hardly both, but 5th build from AOKP has best battery life, so I'm never going back to CM, only for new tests, making new statistics etc.
Hope I helped, greetings

But not alll stock rom 2.3.x can be flash with semaphore.. and not all i9000 can be flash with the same s/rom. But still semaphore 2.7.4 is the best way to get cwm. If flashi v semaphore causing boot failure, try to flash with other s/rom and re-flash semaphore.

The idea of two developers was what I was thinking as well when I was making a decision either to stay on stock 2.3.6 or flash something new. CM9 is more "readable" for me in terms of numbering and Stable/Nightly/Experimental. Even tough I do not understand how come there is a stable version followed by nightly builds.
When watching some videos and screens of AOKP I felt it might be even better but I got confused in the numbering (which of the builds is the most stable as I need a working phone not a phone to be flashed twice a week).

For me the best ROM is SlimBean with Semaphore Kernel!:good:

Try latest androslim (JB 4.2.1)... its very smooth, responsive and very stable...

C-Rom Mix V9 here - it's a near perfect ROM. Stable, everything is where it supposed to be. Very smooth operating. My last phone - XPERIA ARC S was destroyed (and its hardware is superior to that of i9000) - Galaxy - being slower by half is faster when speaking about this system operation. There are some hiccups with number recognition sometimes (like 1/10 phone calls and only till i pick up - so no showstopper for sure ). The camera is limited to just basic functions - but is working perfectly fine. The calendar is more basic than in ICS modded ROM for ARC S. The battery last for a day or less - but here i cannot say if the battery in my phone is just old or is this ROM (i got the phone used and the battery is 2,5 yo). And these are my only complaints - not much I have MUUUUUUUCH more complaints on every other stock/modded rom for Galaxy & ARC S
It's my daily ROM more than a week now.

i hope all the mods and users too will understand that it is impossible to to judge a roms stability by reading their threads, as much as it is impossible to try out all the roms just to find a very stable one...

I am not looking for any special features, i dont care for the android version or distribution - i just need it to run as a surveilance camera and some sms forwarding, so the only feature the ROM i am looking for is STABILITY

Sorry, but this is extremely lazy. It took all other users also hours of reading and flashing to find out which ROM suits them best.
As you don't even specify your special usecase (=usage pattern), which Rom you're currently running, it will turn into a "most stable = best ROM" thread.
Good luck anyway and a happy new year.

It can´t be prophibited to just ask for a very stable ROM when the alternative is wasting countless hours just to find a ROM that doesn´t need to feature anything but stability.
Nobody with a little bit of common sense would link this to the forum rule for Best ROM Threads...
No offense
but i find it interesting, that you take the time to post 2 answers instead of pointing me to a dev thread of a ROM that meets my requirements...
it is also interesting how every community is getting worse at growing user numbers - just think of this board in the beginning...

Still lots of work is needed in KITKAT to make it actually stable rom for NOTE1.
would suggest to try 4.3 first. try, experience and then move on with final 4.4 once released.
