Recommend me a rom - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

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?

Yes!

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.

CM10.1.3 and devil kernel

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

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:

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).

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 !

You can use ANGRY v3 or SVA ROM JB v5.1 for Jelly Bean (xxlsc)
But is you want to more stable and problemless rom, you should use ICS rom. I think the best rom on ICS is Criskelo's v11.2
Have a good use

[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.

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

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...

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.

Does it reccomend to move to jellybean

I have gb rom 2.3.6 didn't move to ics cause I didn't like the desgin
is JB roms are stable?? better than the JB ons?
I installed Slim Bean 4.2.2 just about a week ago, came from stock 2.3.6 and I am not regretting it :laugh:
This ROM just flies, it's super fast, stable and fancy looks
I didn't miss my slow 2.3.6 every since, should have flashed earlier

Totally agree, the current jb roms work great and are highly configurable.Last Tsumami 4.5.Saludos.
I am running CM10.1 and it is rock solid. You will not regret the switch.
I've got Helly Bean 4.2.2 up and running on my Galaxy S and this thing's almost as fast as my N4!
And not a single JB user can set external sdcard as target for photo or HD video from camera?
if ur a hardcore gamer then stay with stock value pack , jb roms use more ram than value pack so r slow in playing games but the interface is smoother

Or Slim rom. JB 4.2.2 are the best. Stable and faster than GB or ICS.
don't hesitate
Also In developer tools choose 3 background processes.
ROW scheduling in Performance menu
Slim rom simply the best ... blazing fast! i recomend slim with mackay kernel..

This is not true, there are JB roms like ts1506's CyanAOSP which are much much better than stock 2.3.6. I could not play hardcore games on stock which is why i switched to CyanAOSP
Go for any AOSP rom CyanAOSP, SuperNexus,... They all are smooth n good for gaming n good battery backup

i running CM10.0 didnt like 10.1 based roms, so will stick to CM10 with this phone.
It's MUCH more stable. Benchmarks are MUCH better. But it's not recommended to restore titanium backup after update because of compatibility issues
Yep, if u go to any AOSP JB ROM you'd be surprised how your SGS can work smootly, stable and fast.
I didn't try CyanAOSP but it seems like good choice. Right now i'm on supernexus with semaphore and it works like a charm.
Just try JB. You'll love it. Much smoother andere faster!
