Best ROM as of right now?

Whats the best rom available right now for the N1? I haven't tested my N1 with anything in a while been running MIUI but I'm finding it to be sort of laggy now with apps installed.

Fastest? Hmm, pretty much any CM7 self-kang.
This one by samuaz is really fast: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416894

Is that the most stable rom available for nexus one right now?

with multiple full wipes to include system both are stable for me
with ICS by samuaz you need to follow op page exactly

Temaseks latest CM7 Kang with scroll zip is BLAZING

I use now ICS by samuaz, it's fast and really stable. But it's an alpha version!
When you think it's important to have a stable rom, then
use CM7. CM7 roms are as stable as stock, but better ;-)

worth upgrading to ICS or JB?
hello. I realize this thread hasn't been active in a while, but I am thinking to bring back my Nexus One from the grave so I can have a backup phone for my daughter to play with in the car/plane. I wanted to ask if it is worth installing ICS or JB ROMs that are out there. I just have the stock ROM in there now and I always struggled with low memory and lag with some newer apps, that's why I've upgraded phones (I've have a Galaxy Nexus now).
I don't have intentions to put a SIM card in there, so I don't really care about phone call features.. only purely from a processing and lightweight standpoint.
Has anybody played enough with GB vs ICS and/or JB and weighed if it's worth upgrading? I'm assuming that it's worth it because so many developers still have Nexus One ROMs... that's why I would just go ahead and install it, but then I'm thinking again if it's just going to bog down the phone if I'm going to only use it for simple games.
Thanks in advance!!

Hello! I have installed the CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.2 v6.0 that is based on CyanogenMod and Evervolv, and works fine for me. I also have installed all the /data partition in the SD card with the A2SD script that is incorporated in the ROM... it generates some few lags, but I didn't have had any problem of lack of space again.
In my opinion, this is the ROM of JB that best preserves the native Android interface, and in my case is stable (until 7 days without to require a reboot!).
Other JB ROMs that users frequently use are PARANOIDANDROID and PixelDroid.

Thanks for the quick response! That is the ROM I was thinking of as well. However, just as a comparison, I'm thinking to flash a clean version of GB back onto the phone as well. Any recommendations on any GB ROMs as well? Thanks!

Sorry, but I can't help on it. I didn't install any GB ROM further than the stock ROM. In my opinion, I think that a stable, complete and functional ROM might be CyanogenMod 7.2. Maybe other XDA members can help you better on it...

No problem. I'll probably end up trying both out. Thanks again for the response. By the way, what do you use your N1 for now or is that you main phone? I was playing around with it yesterday and I still like it a lot - I always liked the trackball.

This is my main phone. In several times I though changing to other new Nexus device, but the screen size of new devices is too big for me! I like a screen size from 3.7 to 4.0, that is good to read mails, a brief navigation in the Internet, and other minor issues. For other intensive uses, I have my tablet Nexus 10 or my laptop.

stable ics

i have a galaxy s 9000.
i would like to install a new stable and fast version of ics.
i had installed ones but it's very slowly.
could you tell me a compatible version for my phone?

Try CNA 1.4.0 or AOKP 2.0.2 beta 23.
Both are very stable and have a good battery life. I use AOKP at the moment and am very happy with it. It has even a power save mode that can go into no-data or 2g-only mode when the screen is off (plus many other features like auto-sync schedule).

I'm using AOKP 2.02 beta 23 too and am very satisfied. Stable, smooth, lot of options,... And "BHuvan goyal" actualizes it constantly. One of the bests if not the best...

*sigh* what ROMS did you try? Why do you want to use ICS? What was "slow"? If you want a really really stable ROM, you should consider an official (gingerbread) one.
Otherwise: it depends on your needs and your usage (wifi, data, browsing, music, video, taking photos and / or videos, with what resolution, etc.). Try a few to see what fits best to you - my initial approach would be teamhacksung and ICSSGS.

AOKP ICS Rom 2.02
AOKP ICS Rom 2.02 Beta build 23 is great, I am running it at the moment and it is totally stable. I actually prefer the ICS Kernel from Devil, it has some more functions.

AOKP is also something else besides "great" and "totally stable":
Not updated/bug-fixed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22788547
Has potential to die while other devs progress.

AOKP
I have been using AOKP beta 2.02 for the last week and I love it!
It's really great! No FCs, good batterylife, no RIL issue. For now this seems to be a good ICS ROM available.

As far as i tried, i find ICSSGS (onecosmic) more stable than a stock one. It works faster, it doesnt freezes, battery life is good, and it's beautiful. And its AOSP.

I believe this is what you're looking for:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510940
Android 4.0.4 (Port)

ics
I tried ICSSGS 4.1 & 4.2 and it was nice but a little lagging in my opinion. I am now on AOKP 2.0.2 beta 23 and loving it. It's not just the usual ICS but also with a "cusom rom" on top of it. You should try it.

Slim ICS 2.6
I've been using Slim ICS 2.6 for a couple of days now and everything is working great! It is a light and VERY fast ROM.
For me it has a couple of issues but nothing serious, the facebook contacts sync problem (solved it with HaxSync from the market) and the compass isn't working in Google Maps.
But despite these 2 issues I can honestly say I haven't been happier with my phone since I bought it.

Hi,
I've been using the Team ICSSGS' ICS 4.0.3 RC 4.2 since last few days.
I think this ROM is now as good as a stable ROM
The only issue that has been bugging me is connecting to a 802.1x secured wifi network
Otherwise, it has an awesome interface, everything works... and can be used as a day-to-day ROM now.

i tried almost all ics rom , and i believe the best stable ics rom are CodeNameAndroid 1.3.3 and 1.40 , no lag , no FC , just perfect , work all perfect

After trying CM9, i am running AOKP 2.02 for five days now and it's really a good rom. Only one crash of music apps. Batterylife is better than a stock rom. Lots of options. I love it.

I've been running CodeNameAndroid 1.40 for couple of days now and it works great.
However, it seems Dax might be changing project from that to something else, so I might try something else soon.

I'm a satisfied user of ICSSGS RC4.2 (stock kernel) and this rom i'd like to recommend to You. Of course, it has some issues (a few, really) - like any other ICS port - but it is 100% stable and i use it since it has appeared on xda for download. To be sure and to avoid more problems i suggest to stick with native kernel, which is very good by the way

Wow!! So many people using AOKP. really overwhelmed!! Thank you all.

No wi-fi related problems here (speaking about RC4.2) but there is always something to be fixed - mostly minor issues.. but sometimes annoying. For example, i've experienced once when receiving a call i couldn't use my lockscreen because it freezed for a few seconds - it happened just once and i missed a call then :/ But what can i say - we all have to remember that all of these ICS ports are just beta's or RCs so let's hope there will be fully working ICS rom with no issues at all soon 4.0.4 version has appeared after all so i believe it will fix some of our troubles too

AOKP !
I'm using AOKP too
Stable, fast, no FC (I'm using it for a week) and a good battery life.

[Q] ICS Custom ROM's for me?

As I have updated from a SSGS1 to a SXS, I have given my old SSGS1 to my sister.
It is currently running on Darky's ROM (GB).
I wish to upgrade it to ICS.
Basically, what is the most stable ICS custom ROM around?
I see that there are ALOT of ROM's and I do not know which one to pick.
And can you please send me the link to it and instructions to upgrading from my current ROM to that.
I really do apologize for my noobiness as I have not touched the forums in AGES and things have changed.
Thanks you!

i also used to be on darky rom (GB). I think you should just skip ICS all together and go straight for Jelly bean ROMS. I haven't heard much good news about ICS and there's so many beautifully stable and smooth roms for JB.

Ahhh okay. If that's the case thencan you link me to some stable JB ROM's?

Whats wrong with CyanogenMod? CM9.1 stable would be my advice. JB isn't much better at this point and there are still bugs and unimplemented features.
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/ select your device and look whats available

I'm using xbean for a couple of weeks on my old phone and it's all good. No crashes/restarts/etc you can give it a go.
Don't forget to say thanks if this post helped you.

[Q] Best Samsung Galaxy S5830i update?

Hi there,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5830i and I've just been browsing through the Jellybean updates, however they all seem to have some kind of error with the camera.
I was just wondering if someone could give me a link to a thread or something with the best update, i.e. one with the least errors (preferably not to with the camera, as I use that quite a lot, and wifi). Anything over 2.3.6 version would be nice, so I wouldn't mind Honeycomb or Ice Cream Sandwich but I'd prefer Jellybean, though I'm guessing these would be the ones with the least errors.
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know the S5830i doesn't have any ICS nor Jelly Bean ROM, and if it has, it would be very buggy, since Broadcom didn't release the drivers for our phone yet, so I think the most that you can get is android 2.3.7 (here).
Press the Thanks if helped.

Try jellyblast rom. It gives you the jellybean looks plus android version 4.1.1 ( Settings--» About Phone--» Android Version--»» 4.1.1 ). But I don't think there are any ics/jb roms for s5830i like our s5830 ( cm9, cm10, aokp, aosp, pac, etc ; )
I used to have beautiful life before. Now I'm in engineering...!

Thanks for your reply!
Is there any decent changes within 2.3.7 that differs from 2.3.6? I mainly wanted to update it for a new design and so that it supports more apps.

[Q] 4.2.1 vs 4.1.2

What are the pros and cons of using 4.2.1 vs 4.1.2? I've been a JB (4.1.2) user for a while and I like how it flows, will I run into any kind of major bugs going to the newer versions? I've read about bluetooth headset issues but I don't even own one so no problem there XD some users also say 4.2.1 is actually faster, is that true?
Which ROM do you guys use for a daily driver? (I have my SGS for like 2 weeks and already flashed it like 20 times lol)

I've been using hellybean and I find it is faster and amazingly more stable but it could just be how I use it

Sorry bro, only saw 4.1.2-based ROMs yet

personally i like 4.2 more, because there's less problem with these roms for me. on 4.1 android system always kept the phone awake but when i switched to 4.2 this annoying problem disappeared. also my battery life is better and the speed too. so i highly recommend you to try one or two new roms

Flashed both CM10 and CM10.1. The 4.2.1. was much more laggy and had much more bugs than 4.1.2 did, so I flashed to CM10 stable and it runs like a charm.
Sent from SGS GT-i9000 using magic.

That is because cm10.1 is nightlys ROMs like hellybean and slim bean are much faster and more stable
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

I personally use X-Bean 3.0, stable, fast. I'm now stuck at Semaphore 2.6.2s since newer versions do not support WiFi direct.
I'm eager to try a possibly better rom, trying to decide on anything 4.2 based.

4.2.1 is much faster than 4.1.2
in my opinion the Ram management is also much better
for daily use i'm running on HellyBean 4.2.1 by DerTeufel
for me its the stablest, fastest and smoothest Rom for SGS

i use 4.2.1. fishears nightlys. after i found out that he uses the original parition layout and my hardware is given, its the only right choice for me. i was on slim bean before but after 2-3months of use it became veeeery laggy and random reboots.... slim bean is a very good rom but after some usage it caused a lot of problems. i hope fishears wont do the same after a couple of time

I can never settle for a ROM...been like this since I got my SGT7 which was flashed like everyday, lasted on stock for the first week. I'm a flashaholic XD anyway, I've since posting this tried Helly Bean (4.2.1) and was amazed by how smooth it went and flawless then I screwed it up by flashing some random stuff and getting a bootloop, as usual. Then I tried Helly Bean (4.1.2) and was sad to see it was actually slower than the 4.2 version so right I'm on MIUIv4 from miui.us and I'm not sure about it really. Will give feedback whenever but I believe I'll just end up going back to 4.2.1 for the awesomeness of it.

4.1.2 has stopped Development already because of the latest release of Android 4.2 version.
So if a user is satisfied with a stagnant Rom, this is a better choice.
A user can just pick a most stable 4.1.2 Rom and flash it, but expect no more Development on this one.
The beauty of 4.2.1 is its continuous Development. New features are added and new tweaks are introduced everytime.
I'm using 4.2.1 C-Rom Mix v4 and I'm surprised by its fastness and stability.
I really didn't expect an almost perfect 4.2.1 Rom at this early stage of its Development.

AW: [Q] 4.2.1 vs 4.1.2
But according Android Version history the changes in 4.2.1 are not significant nor performant. So no urge really to upgrade in my opinion.
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

If I remember right, 4.2 introduced the possibility to key in your PIN in landscape orientation. This comes handy if got a desk- or cardock (or both )

Does android 4.1.2 support GL to SD? 4.2.1 doesn't so I'm thinking of downgrading but I need to confirm
