ICS vs Gingerbread, what do you use?

What do you use on your notes?
Just a question to see what people running on their notes...
Do you still use gingerbread.....
Or on ice cream sandwich?
What are your reasons?

What am i using????
After trying several ICS roms, i wanted a very stable, long battery rom.
So i chose stock gingerbread, not clocked, and it lasts forever, not laggy...

I use ICS, Mainly because I like to have the latest Android version available. That being said, Stock GB is very good, Very efficient and smooth with great battery.
But most custom ROMs and mods are for ICS so thats another reason i use it.

GB - better battery life and i dont see any advantage to using ics over gb

Have you tried the latest ICS 4.0.4?
It is by far better than GB and also better than 4.0.3. My main reasons:
Very stable
Excellent battery life - for sure far better than GB, at least this is my experience
Premium S-apps - they are much better than the ones found on GB, and I use them everyday
ICS handles better multitasking - so the interface is smoother
For me - proper Hebrew language support - GB is poor on right to left languages support
Access to apps supported only on ICS, like Chrome and Apex, for example
These are only the most relevant ICS features - but overall the ICS implementation really feels better than GB.

I'm Using Latest ICS 4.0.4 . I Always Love To Use New OS.

Yes, but what about the brick bug risk of using this stock ROM? I have 4.0.3 and will likely update once it hits UK, but bricking my device in the progress worries me.

I'm on ICS 4.0.3.It's good and smooth but it makes a hissing sound upon recording say a video file.
It's a bit off topic but is this problem solved in 4.0.4?
Oh and btw the gps wakelock problem in GB used to drive me crazy now I can relax I don't really care if it (ICS) uses more battery.:good:

Hi at all,
I use a final ics 4.0.4 ger rom stock with speedmod 3-9 kernel and i have a fast, stable and powerful system... It's a perfect combination

I, personally, don't like touchwiz ui and wanted to be on the latest OS available so I flashed paranoid Android ROM on to my device. This ROM was made to suit the hybrid phone/tablet design of the note AND I get to have that pure Google OS feel. The are other great roms available for the note but I find it extremely difficult to switch from paranoid Android.

Tmt Miui Beta 6.It's stable,fast and bettery life is good enough for me.

Tmt MIUI 7 its simply great, user friendly, superb customization and themes.

I am using Stock ICS 4.0.3, with Speedmod Kernel K3-9. Although felt GB was much faster/smoother than ICS, but who wants to stay downgraded.
P.S. - Am already looking forward to JB

ICS is my choice, and a memorial has much better features. My recommendation.

From ICS to JB - any advantages?

I was just wondering what the experience has been for people who switched from ICS to JB. Are there any advantages in terms of battery life, stability and/or performance?
Thanks in advance.

Better Performance (Projekt Butter)
New Statusbar

Google Voice is now offline usable I think.
There're more changes but I don't know exactly

I'm using TAJB rom from last 1 month, it is daily driver with very minor issues and 100% faster smoother than any ICS rom.
I can say JB is real matured OS of android.
For example, Max Payne game
On ICS it strucks very much, and need to wait almost 5 mins to load the game. I know saving the game also an issue.
On JB, it is smoother and loading became very faster and never strucked. i tried very hard to struck it intentionally but failed every time.

Praveen.

I understood that there is a better performance, but is there stability for every day use and not only? I mean, is there an JB ROM with the perfect stability of a stock ROM for SGS?

There is no perfectly stable JB roms atm as they are all still in alpha/beta.
Elite's recent beta 9 is apparently a very good improvement over beta 8, some are even claiming that it's currently better than his very good ICS rom.

What do you believe, could JB get more improved for SGS than ICS? I mean, all of the ICS rom's that the developer said that are stable, failed at some point. Every ICS ROM that I had on my phone, had a critical point in time where all of the apps and system apps had permanent FCs so I'm looking in the close future for a ROM that it isn't stable for an "determined" period of time... I know that it's not necessarily to get better stability while having better performance, but I hope that there is a better chance in improving our SGSs with JB.

The FCs you got is probably because your /datadata partition got full. Install the Datafix app from the Play Store and clear your cache every now and and it shouldn't happen again.
I've used Elite's ICS rom since beta 10.1 and it's been stable as a rock for me. I'm sure his JB rom is just as good.

Hey guys, I am still using an odexed version of GB, it is very fast and stable but does the memory improve in ICS or JB, the problem with the sgs as you know is the memory I just want to know if ICS or JB use less memory then GB.
do you recommend to change?

For me battery life was a bit better on JB, depends really on the kernal you use though,
with performance, depends on the ROM you are using, for example i found that some roms where slow, and had poor battery life, while others were extremely fast and had good battery life.
Im currently using X-bean 1.0 and i am very happy with it

Hmmm...
I tried several JB roms and in my feelings JB boot much longer, maybe something is wrong with my phone ? :crying:

The current best one is X-Bean. I've tried all of them and X-Bean is by far the most usable rom that is available currently, with SlimBean + DevilKernal combo coming in second.

In my experience, boot times vary from rom to rom even within the same android version, with lighter roms having shorter boot times.

Same here, I'm using X-Bean and since now the fastest and most stable JB ROM (I used all JB's on XDA). I'm using Devils kernel and in normal usage - 1,5 day. Best battery of course on GB, but this is a small cost for performance

Best performanse rom?

What is best performanse rom?

It really depends what you want - for ICS probably Texasice, Sense 3 - Runny Rom for N1, etc.
Stock android usually is quicker (something like CM but if you want a different look there're always themes)

I'm currently running reider123s CM10.1 rom, it runs smoothly and most features work. I'm a fan of either sense or stock - had the Runny rom yet it was very slow, CM10 is great for what I use my phone for

Can you post to me link off that rom? I dont try that. Is that smooth as CM7?

Well, it's jelly bean so it will be a bit different. Depends on what you run.
Might be worth looking at reider123s paranoid android - very popular and quite smooth from what I hear

Hello, it come down to personal preference.
Why you might asked? some person are light android users (like myself), some are flash-holics.
I've tried a few the best so far is 2.3.7 CM 7.2. works flawlessly.
Currently using 4.2.2 CM 10.1 and i must say i'm still in blown away with the performance.
Thanks for this thread.

Try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androguide.pimp.my.rom&hl=sr this can make rom a lot faster

I agree - I used pimp my rom and it really increased speed, worth it to speed up any rom

I'm using the [ROM][DEV][JB][4.2.2] AOKP for Passion Unofficial Nightlies
even donated to the developer, impressive.
can even be patched using autopatcher to support pdroid,

The GB ROMS such as CM 7.2, MIUI 2.3.30 are very smooth and stable. MIUI especially offers a degree of customization not seen in most other ROMs. However, my only problem with these ROMs is the slow Write speed they've got - copying files to the SD card is a drag even if you have a class 10.
The JB ROMs (esp. 4.2.1 VJ) are very smooth and almost stable ( Camcorder, Tethering, Faulty 3G), but they kernel is optimized for faster transfers. If you can live with the niggles I mentioned, JB ROMs are the way to go.

[Q] GB, ICS, or JB?

I just got a Galaxy S and am surprised to see so many JB roms available.
I would probably switch over to this phone from my Xperia S, just to use Voodoo Sound
My question is, is JB roms currently stable enough compared to ICS or GB?
Please provide feedback only if you've tried all three versions before :silly:

Yes jb is good i have tried most roms and i blv super nexus rom is very good .. But u cant customize it.. Try it your self ...

Yup, JB is very stable. Personally Liquidsmooth or RemICS-JB are fantastic.

Dear,
I am developing only the FlymeOS for i9000 at now ; soon i will developing a Custom Rom with 4.0.4 base...
You can really forget JB Roms , the one good JB for i9000 is only 4.1.2 ; you can forget JB 4.2.1 and 4.2.2
They are quite fast at beginning , but you will notice how lazy they are going to be ..
I highly recommend ICS roms , because they are really fast and they haven't bugs.
There are some apps that are only avalible for Android 4.0+ (like Nova Launcher) , and so I really can't see that ICS is outdated.
Thats why i only develop and port roms for ICS on i9000 device.

Yup, agreed here. Don't get us (or at least me) wrong, 4.2.2 is fantastic. But ICS is rock stable in just about eery aspect and 4.1.2 is pretty damn good as well if you still want to consider Jelly Bean.
Although @UnlimitedRom, you have to admit Google Now is pretty neat
A lot of JB apks can be pushed manually or installed normally on ICS roms anyway.. Just that ICs roms in general are less customiseable than JB roms.
By the way, FlymeOS is looking goooood

Google Now ... is somebody using it? It think it's kinda useless , it is my opinion.
Only 4.1.2 is a good Jelly Bean for i9000
I really can't see that ICS should be a old OS ; as you have said that JB apk's can be installed on ICS...
I bet that if i9000 device is to lazy for Android 5.0 , there will be lots developers who develop for 4.0.4 ...

Yeah, when google released 4.2 I don't really see the point of it except for some nicer animations or not so important functions.
I was shocked at the sheer number of JB roms for this phone at first because on my previous experiences, JB don't work really well on single core phones
I'd give JB a try first and if it's really bad I would try out the rom of yours, it looks great

JB roms is for dual-core phones to run smooth , thats why GT-i9100 got 4.2.2 ; cause it is a dual-core..

Hey, you never know, rumours are flaoting around that 5.0 is going to be optimised for devices with a 1Ghz processor and 512MB of rom( (one or the other or both). So you never know, 5.0 might really bring the S back to life
But yeah, 4.0.4 is a really good base for the I9000. Smooth, stable but not too taxing for the processor at all (not to mention some pretty good battery life, daaaaaaamn)

Yeah, agreed. The JB roms optimised for gaming work decently- although that's HEAVILY optimised and debloated to give as quick an experience as possible. But it's an OS optimised mostly for dual cores and above. There are very few single-core devices- if at all- that run 4.1 officially, and for pretty damn good reason. Only one I can think of is the Nexus S (Nexus version of the Galaxy S, bearing in mind), and even then 4.2 was dropped for that device. So while its still possible to have Jelly Bean fully functional, at the end of the day...

Need a trully stable rom. Any idea?

Hi. Im trying many roms on our n7000 but ewery time i find any bugs and FC. Thats why I wana ask u guys about trully stable rom. Now im using miui veganence. Before that i have dirty unicorns and carbon rom or sweet rom. Even cm 11. All of this is slow for me and have small free ram like 160 - 80 mb.
I hope u can help me try some faster roms. Maybe something older?
PS sorry for my eng

You can try CM 10.1.3 or CM 9 if you want a Custom Rom.
For a Stock Rom I can suggest AryaROM v8 with some nice new Raw v1 Custom cernel from GeeckoDev

what do you think about CarbonRom? i just flashed it but got some errors, but i want to figure it out cause i think this ROM is pretty light and smooth.. (from the review i read)

It's a hit and miss actually IMO. I found CarbonROM to be pretty stable for me. You just have to try i guess, because finding a "truly, perfectly stable" ROM is impossible. Every ROM has its ups and downs, so does with the bugs and stability. Choose which ROM suits you best, and try them for some time. If it crashes/you suddenly hate it etc. then find another ROM or maybe another version of the former ROM. Trust me, It's a bit of pain in the arse at first but it's worth it in the end.

ICS is old and it's not smooth like newer versions like jb and kitkat.
CM10.1 is smooth but drains battery fast.
CM11 is the best but it's buggy (fc, random reboots...etc)
so my advice is to stick to jb 4.1.2 (stock or custom) until we get a stable lollipop (hope this will happen soon)

What makes you believe there will ever be a stable lollipop for the Note?
So much time has passed since the release of KK and AFAIK there is still no stable KK ROM for this device.

because bauner's CM12 even it is still in alpha stage, there is no overheating, graphic glitch, force-close (well, there is few but due to some apps that didn't get updated to fully support android L) and random reboots, and because Lollipop is a "true" update from Google since 2011, so don't expect that Google was playing all these years and only changed the UI and added some fonts there is about 5000 change/update in the SDK so android lollipop for sure will support even low end phones with 512MB of ram and new apps will have a ton of features.
I know that the Exynos motherboard for the SII and N7000 is a real Crap from Samsung but at least those issues related to it, if not fixed they will at least be reduced like the overheat issue still persist but not as bad as in KK.
Or maybe it's Google+Samsung fault which made it impossible to have stable kk for our device
