[Q] Sweet JB v.4.5 vs Ultimate JB 5.2 - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, folks!
After more than 2 months on Ultimate 5.0 JB rom, and having no complications whatsoever and being very satisfied with battery life, smoothness of operation, etc.., I want to install the latest of the best of JB, with TW...
So, I see again Ultimate 5.2 is very popular as is Sweet rom 4.5, both based on XXLSZ...
Should I just stay on Ultimate series, or is there any argument for jumping to Sweet rom?

If you're happy and have no issues...... Why switch ???
Both are excellent ROMs in their own way, the only way to satisfy your craving is to give in to them....
Flash Sweet JB and test it for a few days, See if you notice anything better / worse than Ultimate............THEN make the decision on which one to stick with :good:
For me its Ultimate all the way.... Stable as a rock, fast, smooth, good battery.... Its everything I need.

Thanks for the reply...
Well, I was happy with previous GB roms, but I switched when something better came out...

I mean, on video review on youtube it says, for example Sweet rom 4.5 does not have S Voice... I think Ultimate has it... any other life or death differences?

[Q] Which ROM.? SURFACE v8.01 or CYANOGENMOD 7

I am using Samsung Galaxy S i9000. I am planning to change my stock ROM[GB 2.3.3] to either CyanogenMod 7 or SURFACE v8.01..??
Which one should I switch to..?? I need better battery life and performance than the stock ROM.
have you tried SAUROM
Hi
Since 2 yrs i am using different roms on my I9000 now I am using SAUROM rom i saw it's one best rom currently no fc's with many options you can try if you can link...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388342
Hi,
I got my Galaxy S since one year now, and after the first month, I discovered the joy of installing roms ;-)
I tried many many roms (probably 80% of the roms here) and my impressions were :
I was very impressed by Surface (stability, battery, smoothness)
but it has been beaten by Cyanogen 7 because of many features brought by CM and making the rom very comfortable to use.
I stayed quite a long time with CM, then I restart trying mods (because I wanted to have a full GSII look, but no GSII looking roms was stable and smooth)
So before coming back to CM7, I decided to try MIUI as it seemed to be as popular as CM7, and I falled in love with MintBerry 5see thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350763)
I am completely stuck with it, and does not even want to try ICS roms because I am VERY happy with it for MANY reasons : stability, speed, tons of features, incredible dozen of wonderful themes, and best of all, all updates of the rom/themes/kernels/... are managed with a tool included, so you will not need anymore to play with odin and flash yourself.
Don't rely on the screenshots of the thread, because they don't show the magnificent themes (wood, metal, neon, dark, paper, pencil drawing, ...)
Have fun with the roms anyway, because it is great
And to avoid to loose your apps and have to re-install all of them, I would warmly recommend you to invest in titanium backup pro, because with it, you can backup your data AND the app included, so as soon as you flashed your phone, just "restore all", and after 10 minutes, all your apps are back with all their data and nothing else to re-install ! A pleasure !

Try them both and take your pick. For CM7 I can highly recommend Insanity CM 057 from nitr8 (very light and fast). There is also (CM9) ICS S.U.R.F.A.C.E. v1.1 just released (based on Theamhacksungs Build 11 from Pawitp)
For the better battery life of the two, go with Samsung ROM's like the suggested S.U.R.F.A.C.E. v8.01 (based on Samsung's very latest XXJW1).
happy flashing!
-Sam-
CYANOGENMOD 7 works just fine
---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:16 PM ----------
it is you decision both are working realy good
Well to decide its better if u try both i tried cm7 once it great and very fast and now I'm testing surface which is also great and until now it has a very good battery life you can check my video on surface
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmB6L1B3Blk (a like would be appreciated)
For better battery life,dont touch anything related to CM.I think this whole CM thing is hugely overrated.My experience of the CM roms are disappointing to say the least.
I tested so many roms,every time the stock rom with Galaxian kernel beats the custom eye candys.Either way the battery life on SGS is a joke.no matter what rom you are in.I always wondered why people testing the new phones phonedog etc.
are happy if the battery lasts a work day.Thats horrible.Maybe im just used to my 6 year old nokia with original battery can handle a week.With extensive call usage.

This is a question of choice, you cannot compare
If you prefer autonomy, go on with a normal phone, if you prefer features and apps, go on with the smartphones.
Tell to a 4x4 Mercedes user that you prefer your moped for the fuel consumption, same thing, this is not a correct comparison ;-)
Anyway, with normal phone usage, galaxian kernel and surface rom, my battery lasts 3 or 4 days, which I cannot do with stock rom.
only tried cm7 and miui, and i get about 20 hours batt life.
i remember using darky's (10.1 i think) which lasts about 3 days, couldn't say if i used my phone that much back then
Why don't you just flash them and make your own mind up?
I used darky 10.1 for ages and could get most of the week out of it with wifi on with the galaxy live wallpaper. I'm using Surface 1.1se at the moment. I tried Surface 1.2 - the base worked fine but the essentials pack broke my home button and lock screen.
For better battery life, go with Surface v8.03.
darky 10.2 re very good and jetpack v8.2 really good

[Q] [ROMS][Q&A]-Favourite ROM? [TASS/SGM]

What is you fave ROM for Galaxy Mini?
I want to know why, how stable it is and is it overclocked? if so by how much, just basically brag about the rom you are using and what you like about it and what features it has, also what bad points are there about the rom... is it slow to boot? does it crash frequently? can you play games or not?
IT CAN BE DETAILED OR SIMPLE I DONT MIND, BUT PLEASE PUT AN OVERALL MARK OUT OF 10 AT THE END.
Have fun and i will post back replies to questions but i live in UK and work nights so might take a while but will enjoy reading your replies

[Q] JB ROM with good battery life for Galaxy S?

Hello to everyone.
I believe the post title is self explanatory. I'm running a Jelly Bean ROM which works quite well (though not perfect) on my Galaxy S but I have to say that coming from a previous GB ROM, the battery life seems rather poor on this one.. do you know any JB ROMS that have a fairly good battery life? And if so, could you post the link to it?
Thanks :angel:
I am sorry but poor battery life is a price that you have to pay for having the most recent Android version in a phone that otherwise will be stuck at GB.
Having said so, I must say that the JB stock rc13 v2 from elitemovil is not too bad regarding battery life

Thanks for the reply even though the truth hurts most of the times ! I suppose Galaxy S3 should be a better choice, soon!
Actually "Jelly Bean" and "Good Battery Life" aren't compatible
Battery lasts 30-40% less on both my SGS III and the original SGS (I keep using it, it's still a great secondary phone!) with jelly bean, compared to their original OS versions
JB is damn smooth, but it won't last a day of heavy use.
Just use GB if you want good battery, and if you want ICS, Slim ICS is ok, but still far from GB in terms of battery efficiency.
I am using CM10 latest nighly (20121001) and battery life is like never before! You should give it a try

I couldn't install the CM10 because of an error, but I think it is normal that you recharge your phone daily. specially if you surf too much.
X-Bean 2.0....Amazing ROM, great battery life.
Another thread where people post the roms they use
Surprisingly I find that the stock cm10 kernel has better battery life than custom kernels.

What I read at the CM10 forum is that the 720p recording works fine. The problem is with stock player. If you use other player or run the recorded video on your laptop/PC there is no problem!
I managed a 1% battery drop over night in airplane mode with the jb from signature.

Tried all JB releases, didn't like all of them, also on my Galaxy Tab 8.9, just a little bit laggy
Might I suggest to try f4k ROM, it's an ICS release and on both my and my girlfriend's SGS it runs incredibly good. It will last longer on a full battery than any other GB ROM I tried. In our cases it makes our trusty SGS's run about 20% longer and it's faster (feels faster anyway) accompanied by the Holo launcher. Rock stable as well, much more stable than the original Samsung stock ROM.
Good luck
Im on the latest Helly Bean and the battery life is a lot right, not the best at all. But I love Jelly Bean so I don't care.

XXLSZ battery perfomance question

Hi everyone. I am trying to choose one of the new roms based on oficial xxlsz rom.
But for someone that just did it, the battery perfomance is better than in xxlsc? (i have this
right now) and i think that is the most important thing to do with JB in note.
Thanks in advance
in my opinion, lsc drain more battery power than lsz. i noticed after i change my rom from ultimate n7000 lsc into newest ultimate n7000 lsz.
i'm using my note from morning around 6am (100%) and when i had my lunch at 12pm, it still have 66% - 70% which more better than lsc, it will drop until 55%.
but it just my opinion.
The ROM I use is really good in all terms, For instance the battery drain is ~1% / H in idle state ( and comparatively much lesser with heavy use as well though it depends on individual's definition of "heavy use " . I suggest to wait 2-3 days with 2 manual full reboobs/day before doing an assessment.(Like note does wants to protect it's draining habit,but gives up finally to The SUper ROM)
I had Ultimate > Stock > Slim versions before this one , and this is going to stay I guess....(check my note signature for links).
My battery is over 6 months old and really does need replacing, as its life has really deteriorated since new, However after using Ultimate LSZ for about 2 days now, Im getting about 18-20hrs from my battery (with high usage)
ive used Ultimate ROMs for quite some time now, the last was LSC which I was on for several weeks and I did not manage to get close to 18hrs usage, So LSZ is definitely a big improvement.
Thanks for te replay
Ok, then i will try the new xxlsz. You mention Ultimate rom serveral times, is the rom for joosh3?
It´s maybe one of the best roms? what you recommend. I really searching a perfomance rom, not one so much pretty but fast
and battery friendly..
Thanks again!!
Try Sweet Rom !! Trust me ... You won't regret it

[Q] the best galaxy i9000 rom

i tried cyanogenmod 10.2 but it has no fm radio i said ok . but it does not support network connections over edge , 3g. i want to know which rom is the most stable and fast and good looking and has no bugs or at least few known ones for my galaxy s i9000. and thanks.
Edge and 3G working well with CM 10.2. For FM radio you could try SpiritFM.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
try the
Mackay 4.4 is one of the best i tryied!
;D
When I tried CM 10.0 & 10.1 (stables) the roms functioned oké, but terrible battery life with their own CM-kernel. That was fixed with both roms after changing the kernel to Semaphore which gave much more batterylife. (I never use FM, but with Semaphore manager among others FM can be switched on and radio worked on my SGS1 tested with Spirit FM).
However each time after trying new CM I tried latest stable Slim Bean (which has Semaphore-kernel included) and never looked back. For me Slim Bean blew CM totally out of the water concerning performance and batterylife. (Stability both good by the way). And very nice options in rom such as Real Dark Slim.
Now I am strongly concidering trying Mackay 4.4 (instead of SlimKat bèta). Not only because I want KitKat on my i9000. As it appears to function better with our low RAM. Especially the very alive community around it tickles my curiousity.
Anyone has experience with both Slim and Mackey? How does performance, stability and batterylife differ between them? And which of Mackey's function better? Omni- or CM-based?

I don't know with KK (yet) if also working, but CM-JB with Semaphore kernel instead of CM-kernel and Semaphore Manager one can switch on FM Radio and use Spirit FM. Most likely there is a thread for KK.

Even though best rom threads arent allowed on xda, ill post my reply: cm10.2.0- superfast, only slight lags while gaming, good battery life, no bugs that i can see.
just moved from cm11 with semaphore to cm11&mackay kernel. best descision ever. great battery live (8h of no big use/79% battery left) and pretty fast too - depends on mackay settings. :victory:
i am useing mackay rom 4.1.8 (from 04.01.14) and the phone is amazing, it was never as fast and good as now (android 4.2 and 4.3 were complet garbage for the sgs)
even though i will buy the xperia Z1 compact in a few weeks, i will keep the sgs for my workouts in the gym
i'm using Mackay CM9 and is working very good
My SGS has had almost all possible roms. After 3 years of changing roms. I've go back to almost Stock version of 2.3.6 XWJW8 with semaphore kernel 2.7.4. with smart launcher 2. It is fast enought.
And what is most important it works more than few days without update.
So i if you need stable phone I suggest to check this setup
You can't just say what's the best rom because every rom it's different just like the users and how they use their phone.But if you wanna know some quick facts here we go:
Stock GB has the best battery because it lacks feature and with a good kernel it can be pretty fast.
Now talking about custom roms :
ICS, in my opinion has better battery than JB or KK. Free ram is pretty high,second place,first is KK.More features than GB not so many as JB or KK
JellyBean : not much of a big fan but i can say that 4.1.2 was by far the best from all the versions.The battery and resources consumption was fair and has more features than the precedents.
KitKat is my favourite.The battery consumption it's ok and it has more free ram than any other android versions and the features are just great.
As for kernel i'm a big fan of Stratosk's Semaphore kernel.No matter what rom i use the kernel is the same.
If you wanna try custom KitKat rom you can try these ones(these are the only ones that i have tested like 2 to 4 weaks each)
SlimKat - Very very smooth just like all their custom roms.Nice features like TRDS, SlimPie and others. Ram usage is good but the battery is draining a little fast for me but this is just my case and maybe others have different experience.
Mackay's Kitkat - This is also a very nice kitkat rom.it's smooth it has good features but just like the one above, i don't like the battery and after some time it became a little laggy.
C-Rom - This is the last one which i'm using right now.I love this one.Ram usage is good , i like the battery( i can get over 19 hours) ,it has great features.Never felt my i9000 so smooth.
My test where done with 3g/wifi on all the time,more than 3 hours screen time,music for 2-3 hours,facebook,whatsapp and others(daily).Some of the apps are greenified and some frozen.
Hope this helps you !

I too like xwjwb + semaphore 2.7.4, after trying many kitkat, this and that.........one more saurom v2 + ICS theme + transperent menu+ additional settings works best, fast smooth reliable with much more time on battery.(I try 2/3 roms on daily basis)

C-rom kit kat is best in many manners.......I've tried S4 style MK 4.2.2 (now running on my i9000) find best in battery, speed, gaming, and it has beautiful appearance, previously I tried different versions of MIUI........ very captative but almost in chinese....... if someone know its complete version of english then please let me know.

Sounds interesting to try C-Rom then. SlimKat 3.0 Official runs good and smooth here, but indeed battery life (not idle/sleep, but) when using is wildly guessing at least about 33 percent less than my favorite JB before Slim Bean 4.3.1 last stable/official. Music/podcasts for instance at least two hours less battery time. And in every KK thread you read about bad battery life.
On a site note. My 'modern' Nexus 7 2013 with stock Android also performed better on JB than KK. A clean flash of factory rom and factory reset didn't help. For example battery life (active with screen on time and/or playing music/podcast) JB 4.3.1 was 12-13 hours. KK 4.4 had 8-9 and now KK 4.4.2 does 10-11 hours. The contrary of media srories about KK being better optimized and lower on resources and Ram. And I read a lot simular experiences around the net.
So I was considering on SGS1 going back to JB, but first try Mackay's ICS 2014. Perhaps I'll give C-rom first a chance. And perhaps if it arrives meanwhile newest SlimKat stable. When still battery life not as good as JB before, definitely ICS 2014 or Slim Bean again.

iam pretty much satisfied with SlimKat 3.10 weekly, runs smooth with semaphore kernal
dear masters, im looking for a custom rom that works with the voodoo sound app from playstore.
ics, jb or kk will do.
im currently running on cm10.2-20130826-nightly-galaxysmtd build (first sgs phone i have), it says on my voodoo app that it has a built in voodoo sound but i cant really hear the improvement (weak volume) over my other sgs with gb 2.3.5. + voodoo sound app from playstore (another sgs i bought from an online store).
some of the forum i visited says there is a tab for the wolfson dac on the dsp manager but i have non on my sgs running a custom rom.
i also tried installing a semaphore kernel but no luck, my sgs says that
no need to load module
built in kernel voodoo sound: v.0
"device or kernel not suppported.... "
any recommendations?
