I'm currently using CM7.2 by Mebitek and I must say it is running very smoothly with stability. But recently, I've been having problems with my wifi and 3G data not connecting. It's probably because of the Kickass kernalizer script.
Anyway, I wish to know which is the most stable ROM and which scripts or mods can be used with it. Also, which scripts should one stay away from while using the said custom ROM. Doesn't matter if it is CM7 or stock based.
Here is what I use my smartphone for: calls, sms, email, web browsing, YouTube, and Amazon Kindle. I use wifi and 3G.
Please suggest something. I've messed around with a lot of Custom ROMs(I had fun while doing it) and now I wish to have a phone that I can rely on in times of need.
TL;DR: Need to know which is the most stable custom ROM and which scripts can be used with it.
Solved:
Mebitek's CM7.2.0 RC1 v1.0
With:
1) Slaidyboost V2.3
2) Darktremor's a2sd
3) Beats Audio
4) BraviaMegaBass
Issues: Google Play Store error 492. Unable to delete dalvik-cache. Unable to uninstall an app.
Issues 2: Getting system FC sometimes in v1.2.
MORe ROM with Slaidyboost:
1) Rebooted while I was showing off. So embarrassed.
Andro-ID v3.2 without any scripts:
The most stable and smooth ROM among all of the above.
Andro-ID v3.3.1 without any scripts:
Stable but a little slow sometimes.
you can try MORe v1 by godell
stable, fast, and it includes slaidyboost script too
RC 5.3 with slaid shuld give a good battery and stability
Andro-id 3.3.1with slaid but I still dint test that rom for connectivity issues...give it a try..
Cyanmobile and sliad was good for me...well of course I had a force or sleep of death atleast once a day, rather than that, everything shuld be fine.
Emanon V3 with slaid is good too..
P.S -- Sucks to say but I don't use 3G coz I like airtels connectivity and it sucks in terms of 3G coz thhey rob us....lol
And off-topic - does docomo has good 3G plans? Want to change to 3G badly...
Cheers.. give a try to all these roms and suit yoursrlf...

no rom runs video streaming better than the stock rom in my experience, if i wanted that i would go back to a stock rom (it's been fine tuned by the vendor)
stock worked best for me, but it's not performance i'm interested in, it's the features, that's why i use cyanmobile atm
Thanks guys. I'll give it a try and post here.

I'm using the Rs. 246/month plan(Prepaid). It gives 720MB of data, which lasts a month if used for browsing(With pics) and Google Maps. The plan includes 250 minutes of calls to local/national and roaming. It also includes 100 smses(I replace this with the Rs. 7 plan which makes SMS cost Rs .05 paisa). So, at only Rs. 246, I don't have to recharge for a whole month. Check the attachment.

Sure, no problem.
For CM7 RC5.3, should I install the updates too? There are 4 updates there. One says "(Outdated. Do not install.)".

Apply 1st 2nd and optional updates....no need for outdated one as its included in 2nd.. also dwnld slaid...its working wonders for me
I have just tried lots of different Roms.
I've finally settled on emanoN version 6. this is the only rom I've tried that has had no force close at all.
it does have issues with disappearing icons from the draw and the home screens, installing adw launcher totally cured it.
I don't tinker with any settings and am not interested in over clocking as performance is ok.
I use wifi and 3g intensively and have had no problems with lost connections.
I use aldiko for most books, and coolreader for books in plain text format.
also installed the gingerbread keyboard.
would highly recommend it.
I'm unable to turn off the 'Automatic Brigtness' option in RC5.3. Can someone please help me with that?
@top_Score: Thanks for detailed answer, friend. I'll try that too. Actually, I'm going like this: Take advice from the guy with the highest thanks meter. If unsatisfactory, take advice from the next highest thanks meter fellow till satisfactory results are obtained.
Andro-ID v3.2
But don't use any scripts.

The mini has got no auto brightness sensor. So don't care about the option. The option is only for phones which support it.
The developer hasn't deleted the option. You can try kittenlunix cm7. He has deleted unsupported options from the rom.

Oh that's fine. I want to turn on the 'Status bar brightness control'. But the option to turn on the status bar brightness control is grayed out and it says 'Automatic brightness is enabled'. I attached a screenshot of that in my previous reply.
Hm i cant remeber that option. Squads rc 5.3 is a long time back.
On the other cm7 roms, like mebiteks, the option for changing brightness via statusbar is working.
Maybe you should try another version of squads rom.

It's hard to recommend since I also use the Mebitek's version (from Kittenlinux), I would suggest to remove that script and go for slaidy. For me it's the longest installed ROM I've used, the only nag is the Mobile Tethering is buggy (when I select it opens but you can't turn it off unless you start wifi).
But the stability is hardly compared by other ROMs.

I'm currently testing the RC5.3 with slaidy and it seems to be very nice. I was just thinking about using slaidy with Mebitek's CM7.
When I was on Mebitek's ROM, I was using V6 supercharger and Kickass Kernelizer. I had problems like:
1) Settings would not stick. Example: Go to settings>Sound> Turn on Audible touch tones. Press back. Go to Sound again and see that "Audible touch tones" is off.
2) Google Play Store error.
3) When on wifi connection: Turn off wifi and wait for it to connIf it does not then turn on airplane mode, then turn off airplane modeect using 3G. If it gets connected to 3G then great. If it does not then turn on airplane mode, then turn off airplane mode. It should connect. OR just reboot with wifi off.
After sometime if you try to turn on wifi again: Error. Bang head on wall.
If it does not then turn on airplane mode, then turn off airplane mode
I suspect that the above problems I faced were because of the Kickass Kernalizer script, beause the script came with a warning.
Did you manage to handle the wifi hotspot issue? By using a third part app or something?
Hey sup everybody !
I have tryed all of the JB roms out there, but they all seem to have poor wifi quality
can any one confirm ?
thx
Sane here.
I'm not sure exactly what causes this but according to my phone I definitively get worse wifi through JB then ICS and GB.
From what I've picked up the way the phone picks up WIFI has little or nothing to do with the ROM you have installed. Perhaps since JB is more recent and used on the phones with higher specification the wifi picked up on our S's is the same as before but measures differently through JB?
not agree with you .Please flash Nexus Radio KF1 zip file from CWM or reflash cm7 JW4,JW1 radio files.

You won't trouble any wifi issues if you flash JB ROM with full wipe and full format.Wifi signal bars show same levels just like in GB or ICS .

"specification" nor modem has anything to do with wifi strength
Same here, better WiFi signal strenght on ICS, MIUI GB than JB (doesn't matter stock or CM10). Tried all JB roms from xda, same problem.
Agree!
I don´t know... Maybe Radio files have to do something with that?
How can I find out which one I should flash?
I tried wifix and wifix manager , but nothing changed, this problem is so annoying I guess I'll get back to ICS or GB until they fix it

Modems/radio files have nothing to do with wifi...they are separated modules.
The wifi module is in the kernel. The right modems just give you better signal, with better signal, comes better battery, and i think it has something to do with the gps, but i`m not sure in what percentage.
WiFi was not working at all, Then something happened, Maybe I removed name and added it again that's what made it work, Not sure.
any hard evidence? show some transfer rates compares to ics.
maybe signal strength is not displayed correctly in jb?
bcos i dont notice any speed decrease on wifi since ics
Verstuurd van mijn GT-I9000 met Tapatalk
WiFi seems the same as ICS for me. I have enabled the PM Fast setting in the kernel and also turned off the Avoid Poor Connections setting in the advanced wifi settings
Secure wifi
I am using Galaxy S(I9000) with JRO03H 4.1.1 ROM and ZSJPG modem and Devil 3_1.0.4 kernel. when I am trying to connect to a secured wifi it throws authentication error. ( I know nothing wrong with my user id and password as the same works on other device.) please suggest if this has to do with modem or kernel and is there any way to fix this.

i second/third this .. i have a worse wifi signal in jb .. tried a couple of roms .
i am saying this based on the fact that i frequently use my phone in one room of my house and i always got 2 bars.... with jb its never more than 1 bar .. and to proove that its just not a reporting case .. i get frequent disconnects with jb which never happened with ics .. so there .. confirmed ...
This is a feature of JB that was added to prevent connection intermittently dropping due to a weak WiFi signal.
If you want the old behaviour go to WiFi settings, options -> advanced and untick "avoid poor connections"

Is really the signal weaker, or it is only a matter of scale?

hi, i'm new here and didn't found nothing to fix my problem.
I'm trying to use my wifi always on, i already set the wifi-policy on always but it still disconnects when my screen turns off so i'cant get notifications like mail, whatsapp, steam, etc.
i already tried with the different "wi-fi lockers" in the market but nothing.
my previous phone (galaxy 5) didn't have this problem so i think the router it's not the problem.
also, i'm using this baseband "S5830CVJKL4" and obviously in a 5830m (same as c and i)
thanks.

Is your mobile data/roaming turned on ?
Sent from my GT-S5830i using xda app-developers app
Are you using a battery saver (juice defender, for example)? If so, make sure you don't let it control your wifi.
i'm not using battery savers and my mobile data is turned off.
i'll try with a different baseband today, not sure if that have something to do with the wifi.
Weird, i use advanced wifi locker for another tablet that i got that problem and fixes it, though, i noticed that works in some roms and in others don't.
Anyways maybe is because the rom? i use the stock galaxy one and i don't need to use 3rd party to get the wifi on always.
well, aparently IT IS my router, tested in a friend's home with his wifi and didn't have this problem.
weird, the problem it's only when my screen is off, i guess i'll call my internet provider tomorrow, thanks guys.

Hey there...it's a common problem and many users just don't realise when this happened...
Good u noticed it and it happened to me too...
What u should do is keep some of your ram free by ending apps like Facebook, Skype or any instant messenger.....they consume ram and especially when wifi is on
Just go to Settings>Applications>Running Services
I recommend u using a ram/task manager for it....
Also, use the latest version of GingerDX like v029...or switch to a light and fast rom.....GingerDX is too much packed up with features and themes...
Using wifi slows down everything on X8....they even drop the fps of games drastically
If this helped you in any way, please press the thanks button.

My Xperia T disconnects from Wi-fi automatically. One minute it is connected and running fine but suddenly it disconnects and shows out of range. Strangely this happens only on stock or stock based rom. Wi-Fi runs fine when running CM10.1. So i guess its not hardware issue. I would use CM10.1 but its so unreliable. I missed several important calls due to sudden reboot in CM10.1 and in stock I cant use my Wi-Fi properly. It disconnects automatically. I have tried every wifi setting combination but none of them work. I am frustrated because of this. I have treid every firmware from from ICS to latest .145. But nothing is helping. Is there some kind of wifi power saver that i can disable or maybe i can update wifi driver in my xperia T. I am in desperate need of solution. Please help me. :crying:
Tough one... have you gone into Settings, then Power Management? There is "extended standby mode" option on my phone that seems like it would turn the wifi off while the phone is idling.
Also, is this on any wifi connection? Or mainly your home wifi? It would be worth having a look at the website of your router's manufacturer to see if there is a new firmware available for your wireless router.
I would like to suggest trying stock firmwares from other regions but I don't know how safe that is. Is your phone an LT30a? LT30p?
Right now I'm using LT30p_9.1_A.1.141_PL on my LT30a (Bell) and wifi is quite solid.
