A good rom for Galaxy S i9000?? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am a noob at rooting and custom ROMs.
My SGS have stock 2.3.4 and i want to upgrade to 4.0 or even 4.1.
Can you recommend a good, stable ROM? I thought of Cyanogen 9 but only because is the one i read the most about it.
Sorry for my English.

There is not 'best rom' but if you want some suggestions :
Jelly Bean - Paranoid Android or Miui.jb
ICS: Extra ordinary ICS

Thanks.
And i never asked about "best ROM". I know there isn't such thing.

Mackay 1.2.5 for me. Stable like a rock, even while navigating

Which is the most stability and fast rom or kernel?

Hi, now im using criskelo rom gingerbread v79 but, i dont like it so much ... in your opinion which is the fastest rom and kernel?
Regards!
Insanity + Glitch kernel
Cm7 + stock kernel
Insanity is cm7 based, very stable compared to the nightlys
i know, just like the MIUI- versions, SuperOSR ....
What do you mean with "very stable compared to the nightlys"?
The last nightly with bigger problems was #23 - at least for me...
Stock CM7 + platypus kernel
Insanity + Neo kernel... but only until the new glitch kernel is released

You couldn't just read one of the countless identical threads on this forum? How many threads do we really need where people mindlessly argue that their current rom is the best ever?

I would go with this!!
DarkyROM is superb!
hi mate i think u should try BlockBuster Rom 5.0 with Semaphore Kernel 1.5.0...i think the fastest and most stable rom.....and the big thing it has no battery drain at all....Darkys rom is not a choice now a days......because darky is not developing....its developed by Ficeto.....so in my opinion u should try blockbuster.
i'm using F1 GS2 vs Galaxian GT.I think u should try it
lol, if i had a dollar for every person who asked this question id be super rich.
Best way to find out is try, its why your here.

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:

This is one of the best ROM I have have used till date.

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.

[Q] which ICS ROM for samsung galaxy S i9000

Hey guys im new to XDA but im a pretty old with the rooting stuff
So till now i've been using the stock 2.3.4 and wanna switch to custom ics rom
Im thinking to go for Dark Knight 5.5.. which one do you suggest?
Thanks
Try ICSSGS
I've been using Onecosmic's ICSSGS ROM for a long time and it has been great for me.
Its really stable and fast.
Also i use Devil kernel for this ROM. And its increases battery life and speed through the roof.
May be you can try it out too.
Slim ics!!!!!! Best rom ever....
Send from my Galaxy S with Slim ICS 3.9 + Semaphore 1.2.2
Team NYX ICS V5 is the best...best battery and speed among all the available custom ROM
I would recommend CM9. it has constant updates. but if you want a very stable release and you don't want to update it once every 2 weeks, you should stay with a custom rom of gingerbread.
depends on what you want to do with your phone, if you want something special i would take the paranoidandroid rom and if you want a simple and clean rom take slim ics !
CM9 is the best ever
elite v1.3 with devil kernel

I'm with these dudes.
i'd recommend docs master v12 with the latest semaphore. i've been running this combo since v12 came out and i had no problem at all. do a clean install in you can forget about fc's and lags.

Hi, I use the ICS333 but to get a rom you like you nide try many roms
Get the Galaxy S3 look!
Hi
Try Slimrom (http://code.google.com/p/slimics39/downloads/list) as it is small in file size and then use AOKP add-on (http://www.mrmad.net/samsung-addon-packet-cm9-i9000-im-sgs3-look-2105) to upgrade your android. This runs Android 4.0.4 and looks and sounds like the new Galaxy S3 with some of the apps etc! Works good on my phone!
I don't stay with any ROM for more then two days ! Have tried almost all roms out there. Happy and next day, disdained , disappointed.
Last 3 days with TIGER ROM.
Record for me. Not that I am compromising or anything but cannot even find one bug so far !
Amazing ROM ! Even find camera faster and with a Timer !
Check it out bro !

Same.
but you have to know that the the ICS roms are some kind of beta or nightly (like CM9).
But if you want a very stable and energy saving rom you should stay on Gingerbread (my opinion). I use CM7 (based on Android 2.3.7) and it is the best rom I tested in the last time.
Else Slim seems to be a good rom - especially after the last updates (4.0 brings some good bugfixes and features).

Sorry. There is nothing about stability on gingerbread. It is very unpredictable ROM. Sometimes great and at times lagging and the screen goes black cause it's "thinking!" And also when it syncs , evening slows down !

Tiramislim with midnight.. amazing combo

many people here recommend slim ics.. try out "tiramislim". it's bades on slim with a vew cool features. with aroma-installer you can modify it easy without flashing the rom new. on my device, it runs with the devil3 kernel veerry well.
I am running the Remics V1.1, and it's very stable, no bugs.

Best Jelly Bean Rom

Hi,
which is the best Jelly Bean Rom for the i9000?
I am just on Helly Bean but it has some lags.
What about Slim Bean and CM10?
What are the differences? Which one is the most stable? Which one runs smooth?
Thanks
There's nothing really fully stable atm, you'll have to wait some time.

Yes the answers were not that good so far.
But I hoped this could be a real discussion about the pros and cons of the different roms.

latest v13 build ... jelly bean very smooth/stable /and the lag problems... no problem . I have tried most Jelly Bean roms & it is in my top 2 picks
Works Beautifully
Hi Mate
If you're going to use Jelly Bean, this would be my recommendation
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1820578
It's fast as hell, no bugs/lags or anything that I could pick up in the last 3 days that Im using it. Simply put, one incredible rom from a guy in Turkey. From the look of it, this guy knows what he is doing. It even has OTA, which is an updater that updates your rom without having to format your phone and re-install. I chop and change allot when it comes to operating systems, there's always something new out there, but this one has bowled me over, simply put, one amazing rom.
the best one
tried lots of roms, but combination of magic bean + semaphore 206s kernel works perfectly
I am also wondering the same thing, but I want to know which is the most stable and bug-free ROM.
I want to install it on my girlfriend's phone, but she knows nothing about flashing and she will be away for a few months, so I need something that she won't have to mess around with.
I now have Helly Bean in the latest version on my phone.
It is realy good so far and more or less stable..
But for someone with no experience in this kind of stuff I perhaps would recommend a Gingerbread Rom. I once had MIUI. It is a good experience.
Have you guys get any bugs lately with JB? I seem to install CM10 but I can't access my old photos in my gallery...tried RemIcsJB too.
ive been using elitemovil rc12.1 4.1.1 JRO03L and its been great, no lags, everything has worked for me, no gallery or media issues so far
SlimBean 2.2 is fast smooth and stable for everyday use. Give it a try, you wont be disappointed!

[Q] most stable 4.2.1 Rom

hi Senior members
pls help me to choose the most stable and graphical 4.2.1 rom that has Lots of features for daily usage
i dont have time to test all of them
plz help tnks
sent from my i9000
Everybody has his/her own preferences. Only through self-testing can one be truly satisfied if it's the right Rom for him/her.
Users of every Rom can say that what they are using is the best.
Device: GT-i9000
Rom: JB 4.2.1 blackbean-7
Kernel: Mackay 0.234
Try mackay rom or slim rom.
Also as said above everyone had its own taste you might need to flash couple of roms to see which one is good for you.

Like the posts above say each to there own IMO hellybean (both derteufel's and franzyroys) are really stable but also consider c-rom too personally i would look at the op's and screens of the ROMs that interest you most and ask some members from the threads there thoughts and then make your choice

I would say SLIMROM is the best!!!
does slimbean come with its own kernel or does kernal need to be flashed seperatley
Idk CM10 is perfectly stable for me...
I'm both overclocking and using stuff like RAM Manager though and the alternatives might not require that (CM10.1 sure does for me), but I'm very happy with my phone atm
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Slim comes with the latest Semaphore kernel
I bet you want to try C-rom mix v5 Silk smooth.

im usig cm10 stable build, although its 4.1.2 im betting the cm10.1 stable of 4.2.1 will be the best once its out.
personnally i like helly bean and mackay rom, they are both fast and not very laggy
I use JB AOSP from pawitp from 20121209 - the only thing which annoys me is incoming calls - when phone rings picture of contact is partially hidden. It lacks some options from CM10 but works like a charm.
CM10.1
I use the latest Nightly from CM10.1 and have'nt come across any problems...

Fishears 4.2.1 ROM is pretty slick too. It uses the old partition layout so it can make proper use of the faster iNand.
thanks for everyone
i use [4.2.1] Vanilla Rootbox and it seems the most stable for now....

..you can also try " C-RoM Mix 4.2.1 v6!!! "

I can never stay on the same ROM for too long. However, Slim and Hellybean were quite fast.
My favourite 4.2.1 rom is CyanAOSP.
It comes with the semaphore kernel and a sgs3 design.
