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:

ics 333 works great for me
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA

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).

Rigr

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
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA

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.

[Q] What rom do you use?

Hi, just bought a SGS Advance, i'm verry happy with it but, found out that there are few roms available.
The question is, what rom do you use and please give some detailes (power consumption, how smooth...)

You do not have much of an options. There are 3-4 ROMs for our phone. It will not be too much to try, and see it yourself.
P.S. I use JetMOD.

What ROM I use
Well, as I am a noob at this site I've only used the Resurrection Pro ROM in my Samsung Galaxy S2 It's really smooth and has drastically improved my battery life from the Stock ROM.
Hope I helped
*EDIT*
Sorry, I thought you were talking about the SGS2. As you can tell I am a noob, please can you delete this post?
Thanks

I use apex launcher and everything is so smooth. Games are working ok, played MC4 with solid performance, there were some lags, but not much.

Hey ! I have tried every single rom for JB which is out here. I'm most pleased with Chuckyrom as well as Supressed rom. Currently i'm with Chuckybean master rom V10 and with CoCore 5. The stats i get on benchmarks are great.
P.S I saw that you've just bought your phone. My concern is if you haven't noticed wheather it's i9070 or i9070P because if it's P nothing will work for you
Cheers :highfive:

Ow, thanx for the attention =]
I was with a Xperia Neo V before with a custom rom too and now with i9070, i've bought 4 months ago, i guess, xD. I was going to wait 'till the end of warranty but i just can't keep it with default rom and lots of bloatware!
BTW, i've downgraded to gingerbread last weekend, using stock rooted rom with the Cocore 1.5 mini kernel. I need to study and learn about the I/O schedules and governors, etc

I use JellyMOD 4.0 with ThunderZap 4.1 as Kernel. I very like the JellyMOD Design and the Ink effekt addon. This ROM is based on Chuckybean v9 an is very smooth and stable. The Battery Life is also ok.

[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.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2

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.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2

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...

AW: [Q] most stable 4.2.1 Rom

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....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2122727
..you can also try " C-RoM Mix 4.2.1 v6!!! "
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1925195

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.

Recommend me a rom

Hello, i'm currently in need of speed for my old "warhorse" S :laugh:
So let's begin. The reasons why i'm needing new rom and stuff are those that my phone is lagging all the time no matter which rom i'm using and so on.
For now, im looking for baserom that is possible to flash with odin, good kernel, and rom that has speed and stability. And yeah, it won't matter if the rom is Gingerbread or ICS or JB, i prefer JB but now im looking for speed so i guess JB won't be fastest.
At the moment im running with RemICS JB v6 with Mackay kernel.
Happy weekend for everybody!

Maybe CM10.1
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app

I would recommend slimbean 4.2.2 build 8 with devil kernel for 4.2 builds (not the latest for 4.3).
And with a lil bit of customization and greenify, it's awesome!!!

I recommend SauROM, my previous JB rom f**ed up so I had to Odin my phone.
I must say that it is faster than any JB rom and has a good camera, fast launcher and is stable.

if you want to play games use gamerzrom ninja v11 (GB) or try using the gamerzrom legend edition v4 but GB version is best for anything

Are 4.3 ROMs stable enough for daily use?

Be warned that installing any 4.1+ ROM will make your phone unable to multitask as there is not sufficient ram. However, you do get enhanced speed and responsiveness, plus more customization options.

Use gamerzrom Legend edition or Mackey Rom 4.2.2 for smoothness and stablity. If you want feature rich ROM then use Roms by Aways or try DU ROM
