I'm searching for super stable daily usable ICS ROM for Optimus 2X. And it should be clean of all LG rubbish (like ROMs for Nexus series). Just pure ICS with no bugs. Do you know some? Thank you very much.

Read the thread name mate and then try to read what others have said in the posts....
For your information....that is not an ICS ROM based on ics official sources ...it is one based on v20s gb sources.
Please don't misguide others.

Seriously as soon as the orignal cm10 builds launched I started using them. They are as pure android as you will get.
Running pengus's cm10 for the new bootloader seems to be perfectly bug free apart from HDMI but i use mine as a phone.
They have ported the ics camera to this a s well so no more half built cm camera.
No call bug.
I could go on all day.
The Stock-ICS-ROM is pretty "clean", too ... they learned from their mistakes with putting way too much junk into the GB-stock-roms.
Although there are some bugs in the official Stock-ROM. At some phones, it works fine, but on others, like mine, random-reboots occur, and the phone sometimes BSODs when plugged in any Powersource, no matter if stock-loader or USB.
Things did not get better with flashing DjangoManouche X1.2.1, although this rom is pretty fast, especially when combined with pengus77's Kowalski-kernel
I switched to ParanoidAndroid just yesterday, and I have to say it works pretty nice too ... It also uses the fantastic kowalski-kernel, and is stable as far as i can tell by now.
Edit: PA 2.5 is CM10-based, and thus JellyBean ... but it is an advantage!

Hi everyone!
Just got the optimus 2x from my brother. Its still in stock rom. May i know from you what's the fastest and most stable custom rom for the phone so that i could give it a try?
Im using miui 2.3.16 + etana kernel with lite battery mod. No issues found.

I vote for this.
but if you don't use any video recording, CM9-Kang by owain already can be used for daily.
it's fast & stable enough if using default config.
I'm pretty happy with what I have in my sig.
However, I would test drive the phone for a couple of weeks if I were you. There have been users reporting very bad battery life that returned the phone and got a much better one.
So personally I would test-drive every functionality of the phone: 3G, wi-fi, bluetooth, GPS, etc and make sure everything is working fine before going for "warranty voiding activities"

Thats also what i'm using right now, also with ironkrnL (80 uv-log-su-rld), Chainfire3D and my own sd-fix. But in cause of the missing hw acc, i posted the cm7 variant
+1 for cm7 kang by temasek (with stock kernel).
I dont see anyone talking about one of the best ROMs with all custom like features with excellent smoothness and best performance....Django ROM with Stefan's or Spica's Kernel....it virtually flies...
try it man....you will know

watch the flag system!
You have to change the filename before flashing, i recommend to NOT use "jrnl"!
And never flash it with touch-cwm, it would kill your system/data partitions.

To me hei1125 does an awesome work with ICS (CM9). His rom is called Nova HD Plus.

i never used etana kernel yet, so i can't tell.
i just know that "setiron" (the dev of ironkrnL) defo knows what he does.
I use MIUI, perfect look and very fast ROM, but you loose your FM-radio.
Good support- every Weekend a new update.
1st choice!

I guess question was about fastest and most stable ROM, not about "stable and fast enough". ICS on P990 is highly unstable for now. I'm using ICS for daily use and i don't complain, but there's always something that isn't working as it suppouse to. So at this moment CM7 isn't only more stable then ICS, it's faster too. Android 4.0 doeasn't even have hw acceleration yet.

Agreed, at this moment CM7 is much more stable and also faster, i tried CM9 but some apps didn't work and sometimes the phone was getting slow all of the sudden not to mention the browser was always crashing, im using CM7 now and its so fast and stable
You can use CM7 and see it flying, but without some of the phone features, like video call (I'm not talking about Skype or viber, just the native one), smart share, divx, hdmi video resize... Or you can try one of stock roms with the great kernels from here and have a full phone.

Thanks for all the replies. Will try out soon. Also, I have noticed that the battery life for the optimus 2x is so bad! With stock froyo last night, after just about 2hrs of some wifi and games, the battery has already gone down to 15%!!! That's how bad it is!
Is this normal? Should I return the phone to the store?
Also, will the gingerbread update and/or custom rom flashing bring about better life for the battery?

DjangoManouche 1.1 is highly recommended with V20q baseband and HP SR3R2 Kernel. After trying out many stock variants, Modaco ROMS, Thanatos and CM ROMS, I finally settled on this one as it has resolved all the issues I had with the phone and gives good battery and network performance.
Hi,
which ROM can you recommend? I'm on DarkyRom 10.4.2 and want to change to ICS.
Is there any ROM contains tun.ko module for using openvpn or anyconnect? I can't find any information about this.
Hey,
There are so many ICS roms you can try from, we've really got great developers for our device.
My current favorite is ICS333:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618757
It's really stable and everything works!! There's even a guide to install it on the general section.. Here it is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637966
tun modules are supported by the kernel. ICS333 comes with semaphore kernel by default, which supports tun modules.. You could check and ask more on the ics semaphore thread in the development section..
For me there are only a few good ICS Roms.
The best ist Dark Knight 3.
But if you want a really stable and fast System, don`t take an ICS Rom. Take a jvt, jvr or jvz custom rom. My favorite is Tornado.
Thanks for you answer.
I've looked at many ROMS but the decision is difficult. My favorite after reading the different thread is SLIM ICS. But I'll now have a look at ICS333.
Should I use nandroid to make a backup before trying any ROM?

Hey, try the roms you like and choose the one you like the most!
Yeah, making a nandroid backup would be a good idea. Although don't restore your GB Titanium backup on ICS, it will create issues.

Try ICS out. I tested several ICS Roms but for me ICS on Galaxy1 is only to see, what is ICS.
I`m back to GB with Galaxy1, Galaxy Note and Iconia A500.

What are your reasons to go back? Was it not stable enough, or battery drain?
For now the CM9 nighltlies are working fine for me no issue.the battery is also fine runs for around 12-15 hours moderate to high use with semaphore kernel 1.1.1s.i tried a DOCMaster's rom also it also great...SLIM ICS is also good but if you are new to flashing you will have some difficulties in it since the dpi is 182 in it and some market apps wont be compatible.Onecosmic was great but since there is no new development i wont recommend it.For now CM9 with Semaphore kernel.Waiting for Gamerzrom with ICS

Exactly what i tought about ICS, until i gave TWICS a try.
I'm on TWICS 2.5, its fast, Battery fine (like Stock JVT) , no FCs., no Lags (after switching from TW4 to Apex launcher).
I use my phone mostly for calls,SMS and a little Tapatalk, no Facebook.
Don't get Faceunlock working, maybe a Face problem *g*, i don't care.
Thats my experience, other user reports some problems with Battery life, check the TWICS-Thread.

Hi!
With ALL ICS Roms on all devices i got a worse Benchscore on QS, Antutu, CF Bench and Vellamo. The "feeling" is even slower too. ALL Roms are buggy. Nice to see what is ICS and nice for flashaholics like me, but nothing for stable daily use. DK 3 is ok- no battery drain- but bugs too. The DK 4 and 5 is poor and DK 5.5 ok but slower than 3 and GB.

You seriously have no idea what you're talking about.
ICS is perfectly suitable for daily use on your phone. Not only is it smoother than GB, it looks better. And there aren't really any bugs. None that you'll see with normal use. It's perfectly stable.
Pick a ROM, any ROM. SlimICS is great; Dark Knight seems popular; CM9 and AOKP work wonders. Take your pick and never look back to the past that was Gingerbread.
I think CM9 is the best. I definitely recommend ICS as it has hardware acceleration and is sooo fast!
There's nothing like ICS isn't stable.. There are loads of roms to choose from.. I'm on ICS 333 for a week now and i haven't faced any bugs, lag or fc..
Everyone has their own views.. I think the best option is to try it out on your own n make your choice.. If you like ICS, great! If not, you can always switch back using a nandroid backup..
Enjoy!!

Doesn't matter, just flash Semaphore. It does. And it's one of the top ICS kernels.
The original release of Samsung Galaxy S [GT-I9000] has come a long way and still powerful enough to accommodate the latest Android release - Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.x.
Read my article here:
https://www.fixmystuff.in/FMS_Forum...dwich-4-0-x-for-samsung-galaxy-s-gt-i9000.83/
Sorry, but not my view to ICS.
Since today I got the official german ICS for Galaxy Note and now i know, WHY there is no really good ICS Custom Rom for any device!
ICS is the future? LOL
Only on 5 percent of android devices, months later as planned and in a few month jellybean release.
I suggest Elite GTi9000_IMM76K_RC_1.2

per esgreep
We all have to thank our devs for making an effort, but unfortunately the CM10 is now more for testing purposes only. Recently, there's been a lot of progress...with new bootloader and some custom kernel: It would be fantastic, because the CM10 is so much smoother and faster than stock ICS roms. This is an CM10 based rom, so all the bugs are included, unresolved.
Is there anyway to overclock in this ROM, brothers?
So I want to flash JellyBam latest version and I am unaware about the stability or performance of cm10.1
So I was wondering if cm10.1 is ready for daily use or not...
Also I am returning back to cm10 from 2 months absence (I was using ICS)... did it gain any more stability or bug solved?
ICS is indeed super stable, but it is still laggy and games lag a lot on it
Thanks
I tried them all. 10.1 imho it's not good for a daily. JBam it's not bad but I'm satisfied with Nooby's 30B repack with cwm. I was fed up with roms where anytime something is not working. And no photos with such quality as in GB and ICS roms anywhere.
For games JBam is not bad, for sure better than 30B but there are gps problems, call reject impossibility, bad camera,...

There is no one favorite, alot of folk either prefer CM10.x or ICS,
ICS roms, have (or at least should have) everything working, technically, like wifi, bluetooth, gps, HDMI, etc.
CM10 + roms dont have some working items, (and probably never will) - like HDMI
different roms do run differently for everyone. IMO the latest 10.2 rom from Tonyp is amazingly smooth, but with the current CM10 bugs, and falky GPS for now.
here is some of the bugs and fixes that Tonyp sorted out for 10.1 (hes working on them for 10.2) ** so dont bother him about any of them ^.^ **
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41068286&postcount=2
You best bet is to try a few of the recommended roms, and see what you think best works for you.

Try install P.A.C-Man 4.3.0 (JB4.3) wiht the last Kowalsky kernel is fast and stable for me. P.A.C-Man combine best features of CM10.2, Aokp and PA. You can download P.A.C-Man at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2148394 and Kowalsky kernel at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097788.
As someone stated before, the stock based roms have less bugs and the CM based rom are more experimental. Anyway, you can also overclock your rom. Don't forget to install a 32m ramhack (check google).
