[Q] Looking for a recommended rom

hi
a question for the experts:
im looking for a recommended rom, as fast as possible, including lagfix if needed. Especially when having lots fo apps.
It just that i got this annoying lags on my current Rom, and sometimes i got an annoying delay when hitting an app buttons, up to 3-4 sec.
There are so many roms so i'm a bit lost, and will appreciate if you could help me get the best rom that i'm looking for.
And one more thing if possible: I prefer a detailed HowTo installation guide as possible...
Thanks

if you want to stay close to the base rom... try a deodexed base rom with a kernel supporting lagfix like darkcore..
or try this link (a list of custom roms)

Personally i tried (and adopted) GingerReal :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1025348
Already fast with just this rom. and after activating the voodoo lagfix with cwm it's really fast.
I have a very goo user experience with this rom. (looking forward to V7 (JVQ) that should go out tonight)

Go out to dev and explore, matter of taste/how you use your phone/your preferences......and each rom will have detailed install instructions....if not then pick the dev up on it. You will get as many answers as there are roms with this kind of question, and if your answer is......i haven't got time.....then stay with stock as you won't have time to sort any subsequent problems!

MIUI Galnet V3...give it a try, you won't be disappointed...

i have 2 options for you
1- i tried many roms and i realized that Darky rom is awesome in performance and the team is really cooperating , wait for Darky v.10.2 i expect it come out soon , it will be perfect rom
2- different and fast rom Galnet " make you own iphone look on android galaxy " bring all what you wish , but stil have few defects but they make weekly developing , and v3 will come out tonight

Or CM7 - fastest ROM beside MIUI.

From my point of view, MIUI is really great in comparison to the original SGS mod. I'm using it and updating it every two weeks because of the updates it's providing us.

Well im usin F1 galaxy s2 rom it makes you feel like u are usin galaxy s2 and its fast without lagfix enabled.

My + its for Juwe's Smart Edition > v5.0 XXJVP .... Semaphore Kernel its in Rom and you can flash new v. with cwm ....
Rom its very stable , fast and very nice .... in my case - all works fine

For custom GB roms, I have tried Rocket rom and the newer Litening rom. In my opinion, both are great and definitely worth considering.

For the GB, I have tried DarkyRom, ChrackRom, CheckRom, Cassie's XtraLiteRom, and Litening Rom. I found them very comparable in performance and battery life. For ChrackRom you have option to install a full, small, and extra small rom. I am using Litening Rom right now. I might go back to ICS Stunner rom, I like the Stunner rom except that it is not as stable as the GB roms in my SGN.

I really like ICS Stunner too, but you might want to exercise caution using that or any other ICS LP5/LP6 leak based ROMS until an issue with potentially hardbricking your phone during flashing is resolved.
If you're interested, there's a still experimental (but as far as hardbricking safer) ICS CM9 build that's really cool over here:

Hiya there ! I'll seize this opportunity to avoid creating a post of my own then ! I'm like Arasl, though i bought my GNote in february and i'm still running a non-root, stock ROM because i'm sort of "afraid of flashing".
First, i've never done it before, and since i'm a Linux user i've been searching for ways to do it through linux instead of the Odin/windows method but i'm now pretty much resigned to use Odin (seems simpler, methods actually do exist and there's more feedback, though any hint towards linux-oriented methods would be great).
I've restrained myself from flashing ever since i saw the brick-related posts from ICS Stunner ROM and i do NOT want to flash that ROM.
My questions are then following :
1) Is it possible to ROOT the phone without flashing on Kernel version 2.6.35.7 - N7000XXLC1 ?
2) If it is unsafe to flash ICS-based ROMs, is it 100% safe to flash gingerbread-based custom ROMs or is there still an important risk of bricking the phone?
I can imagine most people will answer yes to the previous question and in that case, which ROM would you advise that is both light (and smooth, since the stock ROM is a little laggy on the edges) and the most battery-saving?
Thanks for any hints to existing posts, i've been looking around but i just don't have the time to read the hundreds of pages of custom stock roms to compare them all by myself ;-)

Just use the latest cm9. Very safe and beautiful. If you need the spen functionality then use gb..

If by any means you are ready to work on windows, i would gladly help you in all these...although in a RISK on anything happens on completely you only.
I, too as being flasholhoic, flashed almost every ROM here in the development section both GB and ICS, every kernel, so i will try my best to avoid any risk but god-only-knows-the-best. As per your question,
1. Yes you can root your stock rom without flashing on Kernel version 2.6.35.7 - N7000XXLC1, Go here and select the right kernel and follow the procedure.
2. Official CM9 is the only (yet most) safest ICS build here, the rest being suffered by the ultimate phenomenal hardbrick bug. And yes its safe to flash any GB rom until you are switching it from GB to GB rom only.
The most important thing, take enough time to read read and read (even query) the instruction before flashing anything, or else you can have ample amount to time to read anything with coffee placed on your new bricked note. Choice is yours.

[Q] waiting for safe ICS, what is best GB ROM?

hi everybody, now that Gingerbread roms development has almost stopped, here on xda we can find a lot of rom based on latest LC1 firmware. between all this rom i can't say which is the best one, so i'm asking you to give me some advices about your favourite rom.
i know you can tell me: "flash one after the other and try all ol them", but my note just came back to me after a month of assistance (bricked), so i don't want to start immediately flashing 5 or 6 roms.
P.S: i'm particularly attracted by "AllianceROM v3.4.1", what do you think about it?

Go for RocketROM v23. I guess its the best which i have used in GB So far

Among the GB roms I tried, I like Chrack´s XXLC1 Multi rom the most. I have no experience with AllianceROM v3.4.1.

CM9 isn't safe?

it looks like it's safe, but since when i see a post that tell every possibility of having bug has been cutted off, i don't want to risk.

I cannot decide which to try first myself: darky rom or lightening rom?

I know you asked for GB ROMs, but I can tell you that I've been playing with Official CM9 and Asylum for a while now. Have done almost everything possible in Recovery, including multiple full wipes.
These ROMs are safe, they don't have the emmc bug, since they're built from i9100 (S2) update 4 sources. I'm just saying that because stock-looking ICS ROMs have greatly improved my personal experience on my Note.
That being said, best and least buggiest ROM for me was Darky. RocketRom is very nicely built by eybee who REALLY knows his stuff and most users have given awesome feedbacks. However, due to my way of using it, or...I don't know, Rocket used to lag considerably compared to Darky...
Best of luck finding what suits you mate!
LE: Also add ParanoidAndroid to the safe ICS list, if you're into the whole phone/tablet hybrid

for what i can understand, choosing as your favourite darky, you can tell me thay alliance rom (the darky's evolution) would be your next gb choice? please tell me, so i can flash. i know i'm paranoic not trying to flash asylum, but after using nokia 6630 for a month, i prefer a gb note instead of even minimum risk of brick. thanks alot.

You can try Checkrom HD v6. I have good memories ...

I understand that...
I suppose Alliance should be ok, it all depends on the way you use your phone... I've heard different reports on ROMs from different people, so...matters to find one suited for you. If you want to switch, make sure you carefully read the installation instructions, although most GB ROMs are a straight flash.
I'm sorry that we've had so many bricks around here...they're definitely enough to discourage any newcomer to Android or to flashing for that matter. This is my 4th Android phone and, to be perfectly honest, I haven't seen so many "bricked" threads on my other phones' forums.
I just wish people would've read a bit more carefully when installing...that's what got them stumbling into the emmc bug...
Best of luck and hope you'll find your way into some safe ICS soon enough
If you need any help, just let me know.

Rom recommendation for a long trip..

Hello,
I'm currently using DarkyROM JVH v10.1 with the Dark-Core 2.4 Kernel (Firmware version: 2.3.3) on my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000.
I've been using this rom for a year and a half now, but right now it's too laggy and the phone tends to hang or crash from time to time (it did work great in the begining though)..
Battery barely lasts a single day..
I'll be going on a long trip of 8-9 months in a few days, and would like to flash a lightweight rom with a minimal amount of apps (aside from music, WhatsUp, Skype, etc).
I need the phone to be fast and reliable (I'll probably be using the WIFI a lot), and most importantly, the battery to last..
Nothing too flashy.
I've learned from a few posts around here that CM9 roms or SlimBean (I think?) might be valid options, but since I'm short on time and can't test them or other roms - what rom / kernel would you recommend to install?
(remember I won't be able to replace it for another 9 months..)
Thanks a lot!

I think that the best for you could be to flash the elitemovil ROM based on ICS or jb too. Cyanogenmod and slim drain more battery than elitemovil's ROM and that ROM is very very very fast. I use the jb version and it's stable and daily driving. Try this fantastic rom

Even though it's JB?
Some posts here claim that ICS and JB are far more laggy and buggy than their GB counterpart..
I thought The I9000 is more suited for GB..?

Best rom for i9000 - ics333
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

I have flashed quite a few GB, ICS as well as JB roms and have found INFINITUM-sgs-LBR-v1.1.1-M5 is the best ICS rom that I have ever come across. It's rock solid and has extremely good battery life. Unfortunately, the development of this rom has been discontinued. Having said that, you can search the forum for this rom. Let me know if you don't find it and I'll try to upload it for you.

Though I'm a big jb fan and use it on a daily basis, I am also of the opinion that when push comes to shove, gb is the most stable.
That doesn't mean that you cannot have a rock solid jb rom, but there's more research and reading involved to avoid issues.
Meso, gamerz and saurom are all great gb roms if that is where you think you're going.
Regarding ics and jb, experiences vary so much that one cannot state a logic general argument as to why one is better than the other. Perhaps with the exception of that if you have one of the newer sgs with the faster chip, fishears' cm10 rom is specially built to take advantage of it.
Sent from horseback.

I doubt I have the newer chip, I've had this phone for almost 2 years now..
So I should pick one of those:
elitemovil (ICS, JB)
ics333 (ICS)
NFINITUM-sgs-LBR-v1.1.1-M5 (ICS)
Meso (GB)
gamerz (GB)
saurom (GB)
So many options :silly:
I guess I'll have to research a bit.
Thanks guys.

Just you wait, I bet if the thread goes on for a bit, there will be every rom in xda listed here

I have tried many ROMs but the best performances and battery life are with elitemovil's ROM
Also cm10,cm9 and SlimRoms are more battery drainers than elitemovil 14.1v4

I m on Helly Bean [4.1.2] - aprox. 2 days on edge, gps off, wifi 20min daily, 3hours talking daily.. you should try it.

Okay, I think I'll try Meso, sounds like the safest option..
I'm having a bit of trouble with the installation though, the guide says -

How to install:
1. If coming from version after jvu (xxjw4/xwjw5/6/7/8):
install directly, if u get problems, do wipe data/factory reset and install again.
2. If before jvu:
-Install 2.3.6 jvu stock using odin
-Root using cf-root for jvu
-do a full wipe, then flash the ROM
3. If coming from ICS
-do same steps like above (if before jvu)
Click to expand...

1) Darky's version is XXJVO (Baseband) or JVH (Kernel, Build..).
No JW
I guess it means I need the newer stock? Where can I get the right version..?
2) Shouldn't I disable all kind of lag-fixes or other sorts of dangerous stuff before I flash the stock?
I remember Darky's guide was preety detailed about that, but there's nothing on that now and I'm afraid to mess up the installation..
3) Is Titanium the way to go when backing up camera pics / message logs / othe personal data which is not the currently installed apps?
Thanks..

I don't have a link right now, but search for ginger bread value pack, it's a bundle floating around here with everything you need for a good base.
Disable lag fixes to be on the safe side.
Yes, tb is the way to go. If you get issues when restoring, enable "follow all symlinks" in troubleshooting options. My backup root is also an alternative.

[REQ] rom with no bugs

can any one give a rom that has no bug because ihave read some post about roms that has a bug like camre, wifi etc.
i have rooted my phone and iwant some rom thats not heavy and is smooth thanx
also some steps on how to's:fingers-crossed:

Im currently trying Mardon ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212438 so far I didn't run into any problems and its running well.
I would suggest you try a many roms and then decide which on is best for you, its hard to tell. Some people want performance others want battery life etc.
Good luck!

I want to be rich, to have a Ferrari parked opposite my house and to eat gold every day....
Never ask for the best rom... and similar questions, if you want a bugfree rom build it yourself if not help devs testing roms and reporting bugs.
You are new here, PLEASE READ RULES BEFORE POSTING NOTHING AND USE Q&A THREAD FOR ASKING THIS KIND OF QUESTIONS
Thank you

Maclaw's AOSP
Since i discovered Maclaw's 4.2.2 AOSP i will never go back to something else then a Maclaw one, there aren't any bugs so far and is without a doubt the fastest smoothest JB rom for our Ace out there.

I prefer CM 7.2 based roms than CM10 or stock based because in my opinion, It is by far the most stable and battery friendly. CM10 is faster and smoother, but I prefer stability and battery consumption. I haven't tried CM9 yet, but when I find time, I would surely love to test it out.

Rom without bugs
Stock rom is the best if you dont want any bugs, if you want an ics rom, then choose for the maclaw rom.
