I've went back to latest official ROM, 2.3.3 JVH NEE, released in Sweden by Samsung because I got tired to always hunt for the perfekt kernel and the perfect ROM.
Now I know why I started looking for other ROM's.. It's lags when playing musik via Spotify while you surf the net, slow over all respons in UI, I know it's slow due to RFS and I've converted to EXT4, but I'm not fully satisfied.
I want a as near STOCK ROM att possible and stable as original (Yes, the latest Swedish ROM, 2.3.3 JVH, is the most stable ROM I've used and got the best battery time, even tho it's slow.).
Does you know of any ROM that meet these requirements? I would like to not feel the difference if I rebooted my phone yesterday or two weeks ago.

I would recommend you to try SAUROM JVU ROM. It's almost close to stock with huge loads of modifications integrated.
Yes, I would also go for SAUROM if it comes for a close to stock GB ROM. One of the benefits it has over many other Samsung-based ROMs is the integration of JKAY Mod that allows you to customize status bar buttons and power menu. Plus in the newest version it has some handy quick link buttons in the notification drawer.
Thank you guys, I'll take a look at Saurom.
___SAUROM___
I've also tried so many diff ROMs.
All I really wanted is nice working stock ROM.
Tried so many. Did not try SAUROM, cause this is a new one, but tried many SAUROM like. I mean ROMS, that claim that they are just like the stock, but better.
CM was fine, but it was also very complicated. And had some bugs.
Really stupid. I could not sync with google e.g.
Finally I ended up with MIUI. Surprisingly for myself.
Clean, nice, fast, easy swype customization and install.
Here are some screens:
http://db.tt/0gh5gInG
MIUI+Go launcher
It works fast, no lags, no freezes, nothing bad.
GSM works fine, GPS is super fast and accurate, battery is OK.
Finally I don't need to tweak my phone any more.

MIUI & Cyanogen are the real custom ROMS. All the rest are stock-based with tweaks and customization. Saurom is highly customizable compared to the other stock based. But if this doesn't matter to you, you can try Darky's latest ROM from his website. I currently use MIUI Rom, you can try the MINTBerry edition (Which I use ), available on the forum. And I would go for Saurom regarding stock based. Good Luck.

Nightly build still updated, real AOSP, less lag than stock, massive possibilities for customizations.
I've had JVH for some time, later JVU, now latest CM7.2 RC0 with CM7 kernel.
Changed to JVO modem (siky_dude has links to many flashable modems) to fix Hello-Hello-Bug. Better than JVK modem.
T9 dialer, better UI translation than JVU even for Norwegian, native keyboard support nor. + swe. + +
Don't flash each nightly (stress battery time?) but check changelog for interesting fixes. Most of the fixes are not even notable in every day use. Flashing new nightly WILL keep ALL settings, market apps, sms, data... Just clear cache/dalvik/prior flashing, fix permission post flashing.
BTW: ALL ROMs have some lag

Thanks for all your support.
I'll try MIUI first(http://roms.miui.us/2.2.17/MIUI.us_galaxysmtd_2.2.17_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed.zip), never tried it but heard mutch about it.
Btw. Tried both the f1 and surface (like f1). Managed to **** up each in less than 2 weeks. Darky ROM was easy. Destroyed it in one week
but probably it is my party doing something really wrong.

MIUI Mintberry 2.2.17 Close to perfection. No... definitely not. It is perfect.
I've been using the MIUI mintberry for a few weeks and it's so frickin' amazing. First impression was "oh this is beautiful" then i noticed it was fast. Few days passed and the battery life seemed great. I did some benchmarks and surprised by the results.
I would highly recommend for you to try that one!
Cheers
I'd go for DarkyRom... It worked pretty well for me, bur then I discovered MIUI Roms and they are much better!!
DarkyRom isnt a fully custom Rom. Its a stock samsung edited. There are only 2 custom gb roms. MIUI and Cyanogenmod7 and they run much faster ofcourse. Im a CM fan either way

you can try the ace of spades rom based on cyanogen mod. the developer has made several tweaks to performance, speed and battery life.
go for the v1 release though, v2 is still a bit buggy atm.

Hello, I recently bought myself a new Galaxy S i9000 for mostly multi-media purposes. I was looking for a smartphone that would suit my audiophilia needs and after lots of googling I found out that this is just the phone for that, so I bit the bullet and bought an unlocked one
Came in the mail today and I need your help with this! I've had androids before so I am somewhat familiar with the ecosystem, however since I joined the galaxy S bandwagon quite late, I'm REALLY behind on Roms and such.
Obviously, since I bought such an old device, I had my reasons; which are music. I'm gonna root this soon and I wanna install a rom with these sort of features.
I need a rom thats:
-Smooth as it can be
-Has the Voodoo Sound Kernal (according to everybody, that's how one unleashes the full potential of the sound)
-....won't get rid of my unlock
I don't care for customization, games, social media, etc. I just want a rom that's smooth, responsive, and has voodoo so I can enjoy my music on the go
Thanks!
If you want to go for custom ROMs then CM 10 all the way, its nighty so is still has bugs. But is good enough for daily usage. And damn is smooth I will never go back to GB or anything else...
You can try also CM 9, there is a stable version. Look for it in the development section.
This phone once unlocked, will never lock again!! unless you want to

CM10 Definitely LOOKS smooth, but is it fast and responsive? I've seen youtube videos (the very few there are) of single core phones that can only handle CM10 somewhat OK....they are somewhat smooth, but unresponsive when it comes to opening apps and menus (lots of loading and stuff). So is CM10 for this phone fast as well as smooth?

JB Custom Rom C-RoM Mix or C-RoM BeaN are highly recommended. You won't get disappointed with these Roms.
I've tried several Custom Roms, but i found C-RoMs to be the best, very fast, smooth, responsive, and stable.
This JB Custom C-RoM was benchmarked by Ratborg to be the fastest JB Custom Rom.
The kernel (Semaphore) supports Voodoo Sound.

Umm, but could you help me out I've flashed ROMS before but I've never flashed a kernel ever. How do I safely and efficiently do that? I just rooted my device and am now running stock 2.2 . How do I go on about flashing the kernal and the Rom? This looks amazing!

The Rom contains the Kernel already, so unless you want to change or upgrade the built-in Kernel that's the time you have to flash it.
Flashing of Rom or Kernel usually can be made through CWM by going into Recovery Mode.
If you're coming from Gingerbread, the safest procedure is to flash an ICS CM9 first before this recommended C-RoM (which is based on CM10 and AOKP), this is to avoid getting your IMEI invalid.
During flashing of a Rom, you will have to re-flash twice or sometimes 3x before getting successful due to Android system and Partition Layout differences.
Don't forget to backup your important database and applications via Titanium Backup or GoBackup so you can restore them back after successfully flashing the new Rom.
Good luck and enjoy flashing.
Try this configuration, i have it my self... it runs really well, is not unresponssive at all, maybe some hiccups but overall is good.

Alright so this ROM contains the "sephamore" kernal with voodoo sound itself? Cool! Um, so I first flash a CM9 ROM, and then from there flash this?

Yes the Rom contains Semaphore kernel and yes you have to flash CM9 first and from there flash C-RoM.
Semaphore kernel supports vodoo sound but i think you have to install an application that produces the voodoo sound itself. I'm not sure but you have to further research on this.

Sweet Rom v1 or v2.5 :good:
I keep going back to Rocket Rom V12, its pretty much perfect with TSF shell. All the JB roms I have tried have one bug or another and I end up getting annoyed and hitting my nandroid backup.
Ultimate 5.1 - Check this rom
Ultimate is a great rom to try its so for the fastest. what I did is installed all my software, then made a nandroid backup just in case I had problems. I did have to restore twice (freeze at the Samsung logo) , which I think might of been my fault because I'm always switching batteries. From what I can tell, as long as you not switching batteries or turning your phone on and off alot, you won't have problems. Right now ultimate is running fast and stable.

I am a victim of the same,
But would suggest, you start straight from GB via pc odin, root it, move to ics, root it, and then move to AmniX Xperia rom, it simply rocks.
A great change from touchwiz with most new features.
And am hoping to get an update soon with more exiting features.
Dude just try step by step as i had the same problem and switched roms for the same issue for more then 13 times. But finally am stable with the great stable rom.

Hi guys,
I'm using CyanogenMod 7.2, but it started to become painfully slow and it crashes almost every day. So I'm think about installing another ROM, but to be honest, after reading recent topics with custom ROMs, I really can't decide which one should I download. I would like to have an ICS or higher, but if there is a ROM on 2.3 that is way faster than any ROMs on 4.0 and higher, I can install the Gingerbread.
What are your recommendations? I'm currently interested in modded CyanogenMod 10.1, ImaGinary ICS Final and Touchwiz Revolutionised 5.0.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, I get it, but... how should I choose the best one - which is most suitable for me - when people can't express their opinions about different ROMs? Most of the posts in particular ROMs threads are related to some broken stuff etc., so it is hard to find same opinions.

Like all of us, you have to experience, have fun, and make your own evaluation, I begin to suggest you to choose spacecaker's rom , or you can get the stock rom with new kernel, andrenaline engine and Darktremor.
But dont stay with those, try some more a get back to tell us your opinion
