I am a bell i9000m user I guess I should say that (I'm using the 850 band i.e. JL2 modem with Froyo)
I am looking for what is generally considered the best / fastest Gingerbread ROM.
Is it CM ? I heard Juwe's rom is good too. Can anyone point me in the right direction ? Is Darky making one ?
Cheers everyone
does Darky have a gingerbread ROM ?
i think darky has / is making a GB ROM, all it takes is for you to look in the development section to see what ROMs are out there.
official GB is out now, JVA / B / K all gingerbread.
if you want a custom version, you will have to do some searching, as it really depends on what you want, Im using MIUI, its GB based with excellent Features.
CM7 is smooth and super quick and is also GB but still has bugs.
so depending on what u want, just have a quick search and read the OP !!
Try my ROM, is based on official Gingerbread JVB and it has got a lot of mods and fixes...
A lot of users are happy with it! XD
Sent from my SGS with Simply 3.1 JVB ROM
Go for Simply Honey - the best I tried so far.
Best ROM threads are incredibly stupid and pointless. Try them yourself and see. It's all a matter of personal opinion.
IMO any ROM based off of a given Samsung firmware is going to perform nearly the same, the chefs just do a variety of small changes/optimizations/modifications, they can't really alter what Samsung has provided.
Kernels make a bigger difference than ROMs by far because we can actually modify the source code.. If you don't want to have to decide just flash stock ROM and then flash a custom kernel. I like Hardcore's but he doesn't have a Gingerbread version yet.
I'm on juwe rom and its really nice. I've also heard that simply honey if really good as well.
I'm also bell

ONE VOTE for Juwe long life battery more than 24h with normal user love it
Have been on Darky V10 RC3 for a few weeks and it works great. No bugs, good speed, no lags, etc. Yesterday I flashed Juwe's ROM and so far I'm impressed ... Seems smoother than Darky's ROM ...
SGS I9000
Goatrip 1.7 was the most stable rom I'm currently running.
Power saving, cool UI, mostly important, stable, you know.
I tried CM7, it was quick and beautiful, but many FC
I tried all of them. Crickelo, juwe, andromedia, goatrip, darky.
Now i ues criskelo 35. Not much difference between them. Just themes are different.
And another opinion: DOC's rom. The last Beta (v2.1) is running great.
Hi I'm a new person to these forums and I posted a my question in the general section but I think if I post it here it would be better, I don't know how to switch my post into here.
Question [Q] The Current Fastest ROM For Galaxy S I9000, Juwe Vs Darky?
Hi guys, after buying the Galaxy S GT-I9000 I was soo pissed at the lag of the phone, after trying several combination of custom ROMS + lag fixes, kernels, stock roms etc.... I have found Juwe to be good, but haven't tried Darky's yet.
As of current I think so far Juwe's 5.0 is the best (now mind you I haven't tried Darky's 10.1 yet) and I'm scared to try any other rom since they take soo long to do a proper install (including the battery callibration charging it full, then letting it run down fully, installing all the apps etc...) which can be a headache.
I also found Juwe 5.1 to be a bit slow and sluggish, 5.0 was the way to go.
What do you guys think is faster, Juwe or Darky, or perhaps another ROM altogether, anyone used both of them and found one to be faster then the other (no lag downs - no choppy motion when switching homescreen etc..)?
I have tried both and have actually found that EXTRAordinary Rom with Galaxian Kernal to be lightening quick! Battery seems to last well too.
Roms i have tried are:
Juwe
Darky
Simply Honey
Galnet
Stock (obviously)
and now EXTRAordinary
I love Galnet MIUI, but it is non-stock, so it's prone to battery drain. It's hecka fast though. Though I never tried, CM7 is supposed to be fast. Last time I tried darky's, it wasn't even gingerbread, but it was definately decent back then. Probably faster now.
How do you go about installing the Extraordinary rom with galaxian kernel? Do you first flash stock rom with odin, then flash galaxian kernel with odin, then flash the extraordinary rom using CWM?
I've installed Extraordinary with galxyian kernal, the rom definitely feels spiffy and swift, slight lag here and there (but then again I haven't installed alot of apps yet, Juwe's felt spiffy at first too, although extraordinary has better swiftness when reading/writing to media SD card so far), but the screen vividness/brightness/intensity/colour looks awful, it seems like the resolution has been dumbed down to make the system act quicker.
Still in progress will try MUIU and the rest hopefully.
Pinpongs blockbuster rom is faster than juwe's, as is sams surface rom. Fact.
Haven't tried darky's.
blockbuster 2.4.5
Hi I've tried blockbuster as well, this ROM seems to be in par with Juwe 5.0, maybe slightly better but these two ROM seem very similar in performance (Juwe is a bit more choppy but faster in some ways).
I find Sams surface rom is the fastest. Lagfix optional. Stable and no bloatware. Plus excellent battery life.

i've tried. juwe, gingerreal, MIUI, CM7, darky. The best for JVP (according to me) is Juwe smartv5.0. The best for JPQ (according to me) is darky with dark core v2.9.
Galaxian kernel has problem with the front camera, semarphore kernel has problem with internet browser. Juwe rom base on JVQ and Ginger real base on JVQ has problem with random reboot (according to my last used for those roms). MIUI and CM7 is the best rom for oc and the theme (using platypus kernel and vorbeth), but ver bad in abttery life.. So i'm back with darky JVQ..

Hi I've now tried several different Rome INCLUDING:
GINGERREAL latest
MIUI 2.3.4
Extraordinary 3.2
Juwe 5.0, 5.1
Blockbuster latest
Simply honey latesr
Cm7
Darky 10.1
So far miui seems to be the biggest difference in terms of looks compared to stock android (interface looks a lot like ios iPhone 4), when it comes to performance juwe 5.0 and extra ordinary rom seems to be the fastest juwe seems a bit more choppier though but slightly feels faster in many ways and has a more polished look.
At the present I've decided to stick with extraordinary since it seems to be the fastest overall.
The GPS in miui locked faster than the other roms. That's something interesting as the GPS is dismall.
Still not fully satisfied though as every rom seems to have slight lag and choppyness to it. I guess the only way to get over this is to get a better hardware phone such as sgs2. Though 1ghz and 512mb should be more than enough for a blazing phone with some app function. Im still hoping somebody still makes a fast rom out there for this phone. Miui and cm7 project looks promissing and hopefully I'm the future they'll come up with something faster.
Still any other rom's, other methods of installation (combo of kernel + rom) that you guys suggest?

Ive tried lots of them,have to say that EDB 1.3 with galaxian kernel is good all around.Very good battery life.
Forget all that is cm,darky etc..
How did you go about installing the ROM with galaxien kernel?, because EDB 1.3 Darky 2.8 Kernel
I tried edb and far estraordinary rom with galixien kernel is the fastest.

lets just say that im not that fond of darky thingys.
I have tried Tiramisu Evo 6.5 Juwe's Smart Edition 5.2 and EXTRAordinary JVQ 2.3.4
Currently sticking to EXTRAordinary with Galaxian 1.7 although GPS is useless....
Currently on Insanity ROM and it is very fast for me. I like the fact that he has stripped everything out of the ROM and you install what you like GApps, Google Maps, even the syncing is removed but obviously you need to install them to get syncing with google. Only been using it for a few weeks and so far very good. No lag for me.
Darky rom (JVP or JVQ) with dark core kernel is fastest
Try GingerCriskeloV77 mate, I hopped from one ROM to another and stopped at this one. This is based on semaphore kernal. Had bluetooth issue but resolved with new semaphore kernal 1.3.2 Cheers
Hi now I've tried Juwe Smart Ed 5.2, and its a real improvement from 5.1,I think it is the most polished and well round rom right now.
Running latest Juwe's (5.2) with latest release Galaxian EE 2.2, only drama I get sometimes is stock Gallery losing it's way to files, other than that, it's going well. I will say Juwe's has the best stock theme, the Ginger keyboard and stock dialer are the best out of any ROM I've had. I also agree with those in this thread, Darky seems to have lost his touch with Ginger...
Hey guys,
Wondering which Rom u can suggest that you have had good experiance with and stability. Had a bit of a bad experiance with cm7, bricked my galaxy i9000 twice, great rom but would rather wait on stable release.
So...what u guys suggest

I believe in stability smoothness and speed. My choice is Juwe's Smart Edition. I am on 5.2. Never had any complaints/FCs... ever. OCed at 1.2 GHz with semaphore 1.5 and Gingerway blue ocean theme.
Loving it.

Juwe i keep going back to.. no questions asked!
Well currently on Darky's 10.2 Extreme Edition, looks like Juwe is the favorite. Can this be flashed with odin ?
And is the "Wipe" download better than the "No Wipe"
I am currently using Simply Honey 4.0 Rev2 + Galaxian GT SP4.... smooth, fast, stable...
Darky's JVQ Resurrection Edition. Highly recommended.
normally romkitchen. but 4 long time not updated -.-
when you can live with jvp then romkitchen is best i think
A great rom, for me is the insanity rom from nitr8. It's a small rom in size, and have only the basis apps that a phone required.
Very smooth and very stable, I didn't need nothing else
I'm on Juwe's Smart Edition v5.3 XXJVR ... no FC , good battery life, fast & stable. Best ROM for me so far.
Juwe 5.3 jvr is good

It's mainly up to you and your opinion what is better or not. I almost was fixing to say CM9, but read closely that you said GB roms. I'm not running GB anymore so I don't really know much about all the new versions of the GB ROMs out now. It is safe on GB so just try out different ROMs until you find one you like.
The franco kernel for GB is not supported anymore because he is on ICS now so that stinks that you lost at least one GB kernel that I used to use and can say is very good on GB. Speedmod kernel is pretty good though.
Well, best is relative to experience. I was on LC1 with speedmod k2-12 and it served my purpose.

Well, i dont think there have a ROM that can name it as the best
Becoz all ROM are create for difference favour people
Example for me,i looking for a ROM with better battery life
And if for GB i prefer get Rocket ROM
So far , i use is ok for me ,only have a small bug with the kernal
Sometime will get SoD (Sleep of Time) but not long ,just around 20sec?
Other then that ,it is nice for me, especially battery life,it is quite a big improve
So if you asking my suggestion , i would prefer for Rocket rom
thankd for the info guys. rocket rom looks good. they type of rom/kernal id like is a light rom /w touchwiz no bloatware,fast,tweaked,good battery etc etc and kernal overclocked and fast also.
stock ROM maybe
For confused sorts and for those who want full functionality,I would recommend the stock ROM. If your much into tech info and can handle the tweaks then go for a custom ROM of your flavour.
I'm using KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v1.6 / franko.kernel for ICS r3, very smooth and stable with one *very annoying* bug, I can't change the lock screen's wallpaper.
I was running lp4 base-band, with Franco kernel on Checkrom...Quite decent, I would say.
Dear community,
I was lurking the forums for the past couple of weeks looking for a stable JB ROM to migrate away from GB. Unfortunately my time was more or less wasted because the JB ROMs are still in infancy, struggling with the most basic problems like connectivity, memory leaks. Not to speak about the battery time.
So now that it is clear an upgrade to JB is far away, I would like to ask you for your guidance: what ROM would you recommend someone who puts the priorities as follows:
- rock solid
- usage: emailing, scheduling, browsing, reading, music playing / streaming; no gaming at all, no social networking
- would like a very smooth / fluid UI operation (I currently use Launcher Pro)
- need a kernel that allows oveclocking / undervolting; using AbyssNote 4.2 currently. I have a rock solid voltage table for every frequency between 200 and 1600 MHz
- I don't care about thousands upon thousands of customization features, the simpler the better and more stable
Please help... I lurked enough, I just feel lost, the S/N ration is so incredibly bad
Thank you :fingers-crossed:
Why don't you simply upgrade to stock ICS and flash a safe kernel? With Hydracore, stock ICS is butter smooth but less battery backup. With speedmod, battery backup is comparable to GB.

i guess the most stable ROM is the stock ICS 4.0.4
with hydracore 5.4 OC

Why don't you try Crash ROM v10.1? It's an improved stock rom, very very smooth and it allows to you to taste the TW of S3 give it a try mate!
P.s.: obv with HydraCore 5.4 OC! Don't forget to give a thanks to g.lewarne

Thanks for the suggestions, I tried as follows:
- CleaNote 6.00 which is more or less a stock ICS 4.0.4. I find it to be way too slow (much more slower than GB), even with everything not required disabled (frozen by Titanium). Kernel used: HydraCore 5.4
- Crash 10.1 (non plus) with the stock kernel it comes with: must be trimmed down, lots of stuff I don't need, feels much more fluid / responsive. Various small issues (can't read /data and /system/app, older CWR, a few forced closes), bloated Phone.apk and some other integrated features I don't like to carry around. I think it's a very good ROM that just got too loaded, but that's what the folks want nowadays, so heck, my problem. I have to try it with other kernels.
Still looking for my dream post GB ROM :angel:
May I suggest Rocket ROM version 11? Truth be told, my Note has only seen 2 ROMs - it came with JellyCore v2 which had multiple issues, so I researched heavily and ended up flashing Rocket ROM v 11 which comes by default with HydraCore 4.3. It is (allegedly) very similar to the stock ROM and with some really useful additions (e.g. call recording) baked in. I'm a rather picky and a heavy user and this ROM has not made me think: "gah, I have to try something else, because...". It just works.
