Hi,
there are different ROMs for the wildfire, I listed them down below:
CyanogenMod 6.1.0 Beta for HTC Buzz
OpenFire v 2.2 Froyo 2.2.1
WildPuzzleROM_2.1 Eclair v1.0.0
WildPuzzleROM_2.2 Froyo v8.0.11
VIBES v1.6.
My question, which are differences between them? I don´t want to evaluate them, but I am interesting in your opinion. What is the focus of each ROM beside having froyo?
Thanks,
M.

OC-Kernel-2.6.32_v2.zip (2.47 MB, 199 views)
HCDR.Kernel_v3.zip (2.36 MB, 71 views)
HCDR.Kernel_v4_Flashable.zip (2.71 MB, 409 views)

There are 2: Openfire and CyanogenMod. Sense based ROM's do not have JIT as it proves to be unstable.
[Discussions] Best ROM for G3 - All other "Best Rom" threads will be purged.
Hi all,
This is the discussion thread of our Galaxy 3 ROMs. Including Froyo, Gingerbread & ICS. Ups & Downs in every ROM, Suggestions to the Dev, Problems facing & their solutions etc.
Your opinion counts which will help in evolution of custom ROMs. Of course, It all depends on your personal preferences. But still...
Some ROMs notable alphabetically...
Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe)
Dutchmods
ICS for G3
Kyora ROM
Kyrillos ROM
Purumod ROM
Sekhy ROM
Vivek's ROM
A Note: Please do not hurt personally anybody.
Thanks in advance,
Sekhar
MOD Message:
This thread has been created for open discussions about ROMs and their features and to share your opinions only - NOT TO IMPOSE YOUR OPINION. I will keep a strict watch on this one!
Thanks, thread stuck.. maybe an idea to list the roms as well..
I like the ICS UI better than any laucher ones
For GB : CM7 is the best
For Froyo (JPU) : Kyorarom 5.2 with G3Mod 2.3 kernel non-oc (flash manually the kernel) -> very stable, ultra fast, and, for my dad, the most battery efficient Rom (5-6 days per charge and 1 week if you use nothing).
Im a freshman in flashing roms, im doing this for about 2 months now. And i can say that
Cynogenmod Port is the best for our Galaxy 3, of course Kyrillos Rom based on CM7-A7 will stand next to the first one. Although on Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe) we dont have full bluetooth function and camera is black/white, but its very stable.
Hmmm..Tough Question!
I have tried Kyorarom and Kyrillos and I find Kyrillos v9.5 better than Kyorarom 0.5.2,both in case of battery backup and performance Kyrillos exceeds Kyorarom.
Kyorarom needs to be refined a little and everything will be fine, coz am having lag problems on it.
Still got to try Sekhy's and DutchMod. I am having download problems as of now so will try both the ROMs and report soon.

Have tried and did not pass Boot Loop in the following ROMs
1. Kyora ROM
2. Kyrillos ROM
Used Vivek's ROM for 2 days and it was fantastic, but the data usage while roaming drained me completely..but one of the best for G3.
Currently use CM but CM needs to be tweaked continuously for better battery and results. The features that CM 7.1 has is great. All working fine
Have tried CM 6.2 too and was happy.
The only ROM to beat CM on features is WIUI, but WIUI does not support G3 currently
Hope this helps!
Well, I have tried plenty of ROMs for G3 (from the latest e.g. Kyorarom v0.5.2, Kyrillos 9.5, CM 6.2...) but all of them beats CM 7.1 modded by Kyrillos - GWK74.
It´s fast as hell, stable, pretty good battery backup (3 days of moderate usage).
The only thing I miss are video codecs for avi format, which were in froyo ROMs.
And another suggestion it would be great if Fugumod Ultra kernel would support Gingerbread ROMs...don´t know if it´s possible, but it´s performance in froyo is epic
Tried many ROMs but i find the Kyrillos version of cm7 the best....
On a serious note, i think the stock JPU ROM is insanely smooth and fast I'm using it right now and app opening times, scrolling etc. are really fast and smooth. Battery backup is also awesome compared to Kyrillos' ROM V 9.5 where the battery lasted 1 day of heavy usage then 1 day of hardly any usage because i was scared to waste the battery half the way through the day in case i got any important phone calls.
In my Opinion the cm7 port is the best not only cause you can change your design via cm7 but also performance and battery is very good here, had kyrollos before but yeah i wanted something new and with cm7 port i have much mor fun with my phone
ICS
As long as you don't need bluetooth and camera badly, i actually think ICS is pretty amazing. It's good enough for daily use now at least, almost at CM7 level.
My opinion =
For daily usage: Stock rom (I recommend XXJPS or DDJP4)
Need for speed? : Kyorarom , Kyrillos' rom
Classic rom : Vivek's rom or Purumod
For showing off: CM7, ICS, AOSP original ginger port by marcel

Hi Sekhar,
Could you add the link to each of these ROM threads - and have a comparison [a fair one] for the benefit of the community?
I've not tried Purumod, Sekhy etc..
And what is the funda is installing a ROM from earlier version?
For Instance, Your ROm suggests that the earlier version be installed first..I'm foxed here

Sekhys ROM for Gb is fantastic. Nice user experience and great display for normal use.
But Videos are Laggy and other than mp4 formats dont play..
Bloatware IMO is avast and Battery XL Both can be removed by force closing the apps and uninstalling them in applications
Like Kyrillos' v9.5 most. Of course I didn't like battery life with 'default' g3mod kernels especially when I was using 2g/3g internet connection so I flashed Astrum v 1.0 from moikop and now everything works like a charm ;-)

Same here, hope K 10. will get rid of battery drain prob.
...tried Kyrillos' 10 Beta 1 over the weekend and performance and battery drain is really ok.
of course there are still some probs as the black/white preview when taking pictures with camera and didn't get bluetooth connection to send/receive some files; but as pictures are taken in colour (seen when accessed on sdcard) and files can also send by wireless (f.e. airdroid) or usb connection (cable) i can live with it. also having data2sd with link2sd (s2e didn't work properly for me; corrupted my sdcard)
perhaps i'll flash K 10 beta2 end of next week?!

Battery info: Overnight only drop 1-2% of batteries.
Note: This rom doesn't contain android market, so you need to download market apk file and push it into system/apps and set permission using root explorer. And no need to download any task killer, Long press home button then a bar will pop out, you should see any apps if you just run it, long press the app icon then a -icon will appear then click it to kill the apps just like iphone or you can slide the bar to right and use clean system to kill all apps instantly. If you dont understand chinese words in the switch in the notifications bar, long press the icons and you will know what it is for.
IMPORTANT: For ALFS ICS KERNEL or above, you need to flash andreno lib v2 and chargemon fix v2. This rom runs perfectly with it.

Try GingerDX for because it is smooth and stable. I tried it with stock kernel and played some 3D games and the performance is good but if you installed some more apps, the games performance seems to get lower. If you really want a gaming rom, you will need to use custom kernel. LinuXperia, Ginger JH, Xperience are perfect for gaming. Did you unlocked your bootloader? If no, i can teach you with the easiest ways .
