Excellent work mate,... well done. No more "which is the best...." threads. You'l have to try and keep it updated though.
Good job.
EDIT,.... Agree with WILEYKAT.... Put that into 1st post to only post a reply to give overall reviews, I'll do mine tonight.
Good thread.
I think that you should only post IF you have a review, so that the thread doesn't turn into an arguement thread.
I'll edit my post later when I can write a full review of my choice.
CronosDroid 1.3
Keep up the good work Cronos.
Edit: To OP. Maybe you should add to the post that this thread is not a place to basher other devs either.
Posts should be strictly to show which rom you use and show support to respective dev.
And not to say X is way better than Y etc.
Helps avoid un-needed future flame fights and filters out trolls.
VillainROM FTW!!
i never really used AOSP ones.. but when froyo will come, i'll sure check out the AOSP ones!!
VillainROM keep the good work up!! The roms are [email protected][email protected]
Any way you can open up the voting so that people can change their votes as they change roms? I don't tend to stick to a single rom for more than a week or so. It feels slightly pointless mentioning my current one as its likely to change in the next few days. Obviously people can always edit their reviews to reflect different roms.
Review:
Current ROM: SlideVillain 1.1.0 (w/ OC Kernel ben10)
Looks: 9
Functionality: 9
Usability: 9
Speed: 9
Overall: 9
Description: Nice looking ROM, I like the different themes. No stability issues, aside from when changing themes sometimes. Everything seems to be working well so far and i'm thinking of sticking with this until VillainROM 6.1 is released.
Edit: Benchmark: 2.952 (@691MHz)
+1 for BeHero+ 1.2 (with toast/benhaams 2.6.29 kernel 710mhz overclock). Nearly faultless. Very little lag, and a very clean ROM - no bundled extras or wallpapers. Small, fast, full Sense. I have beautifulwidgets, weatherbug elite, stocks widget, calendar widget, all open and still get ~2.98 linpack with full overclock - which is fast enough for me!
Oh - and I get at least a good days battery life too. With music listening to/from work (40 minute walk).
As an aside, HTC Hero community is going to have a terrible loss if/when Benhaam does finally give it up as a bad job. It'll be a real shame.
I think there should be a separate poll for AOSP and Sense UI roms.
aHero, heads down.
Sensehero for me haven't been disappointed yet. : ) keep up the good work stickman
My vote for VanillaEclair [AOSP] [v3.0] [24/05/2010]
With linpack 4.5-4.7, [email protected]
Very smooth LauncherPro and good device stability.
Great idea with this poll. One more thing however would be very useful for chosing rom: sort of table or sheet with list, what was removed and what was added in comparision to original ROM (yeah, I know that there aren't an orginal 2.1 gsm rom, but it could be compare with cdma rom for example). For me I search fast and stable rom which would be as identical with original (preinstalled programs etc.) as possible.
we should post linpack scores with the roms to backup our votes, and to make it easier to see which is physically best. I get 4.6~4.7 on vanilla eclair 3.0, have yet to try villian 6 though so we will see
Linpack isn't everything.... for one its a simulated calculation - not what the average programs will be processing. Most of these reviews are going to be highly subjective.
I think the team villain roms should be merged :/ also, does sensehero really count when its just a rip off of villain? maybe that should merge to be villains votes too.

Excuse me no its not, you can do all the checks you want!! I think you will find its my work, based on the latest official CDMA 2.1 leak and my compiled OC kernel and so on...
The comments recieved from the SenseHERO users have mentioned and believe it to be the fastest 2.1 sense build available.

VillainROM, not interested even in official 2.1
VillainROM is far ahead of others. Keep up the good work guys. My ROM choice:
1. SlideVillain1.1.0
2. VillainROM6.0.1
3. None
anirudha
Amazing thread. Thanks so much for creating this. I'm sure it was a lot of work to wade through all those ROMs.
I've been a huge fan of MoDaCo ROM 3.2, which is extremely fast. But I just can't wait anymore and really want Android 2.1 - as MoDaCo only runs 1.5. I will be installing VillainROM 6 today.
Guys... There is one ROM almost perfect IMO.
CRONOS DROID ver.1.4.1 528 stable.
Everything works super fast and responsive. Fully overclockable by user.
Cannot imagine how stock 2.1 can be better.( if will be released ).
Vote +1 for cronosdroid.

i wonder why you're still flaming around. MODS ? Hello ? This is annoying. And accusing someone to steal smthing w/o having any evidence is punishable.
Feeyo wrote down credits for the GUI (changes), just for the wrong person...
Superhero hasn't Sense UI (on this time it isn't possible with JIT).
what happened?? i left for like 2 days and everythings stopped.
And now Cronos take the lead!

Hmm.. You don't have to make the greatest ROM anymore.. Just need to have a great community on your side.
So how does this poll work?
I can't really vote for a ROM i haven't tried. Most people will vote for whatever they are running, right? So you are right, it is just the rom with the biggest community. It's just a popularity contest, not comparing which is best.
Any chance people will actually put reviews up on this?
Over 200 votes but nobody rating on how Cronos or VR10 perform.

How to enable JIT and where to find the kernel?
Make no sense
VR 10.* is based on the official release,there is no doubt that VR 10.* is the best as the others are all ported roms.
so,IT'S NOT FAIR.
the resault make no sense . I THINK.
What do ya mean, "not fair"?
Others could use the HTC optimizations as well - VillainROM just happens to have them all already.
On another note, biggest community is also related to "best" ROM: if a ROM is unstable, slow or incomplete, people are free (and usually do) switch to another release.
So stop complaining and vote for whatever you think is best...

i disagree, if someone started producing shody roms the community would start looking elsewhere.
This might show which is popular, but the roms which are popular are popular for a reason, thats not to say the other roms arnt as good, just will maybe take time to catch up with supporters.

Just to comment on the above, if you use Ninpo's kernel you will easily get linpack of 3.0 or higher on VR10
And I get at least 31fps as well in neocore.
(WITHOUT JIT)

EzHero-

Functionality: Has a bunch of features, like 360 rotation and Spare parts in settings
Usability: 9.75/10, sometimes the status bar is a bit hard to pull down

Usability: 8/10- It is not that fast and honestly just doesn't have the usaibilty of sense roms or stuff

Description: Radu did a fantastic job on the kernels, but it can be a bit unstable at times. Though I am a vanilla fan, I am not to big on this one in my opinion.
I liked EZHero 3.x and 4.0 Beta a lot, but after a bit of usage I must say that the UI felt a bit sloppy in response time even though using LauncherPro and veryfing via top that no other process was out of control :-( moved back to VR 10.3 as SuperHero froze on my phone for no apparent reason.
I liked EZHero 3.x
Just thought about gathering up some info on Quadrant scores and possibly correlate that to ROM/Kernel/MicroSD setup in order to figure out the best combination. I understand that Quadrant scores are somewhat subjective and Kernel code along with HD2 Android Builds are constantly changing, but it would still be interesting to see the tendencies in the performance.
Here is my most recent result:
Quadrant Score: 2046
Neocore Score: 31.8fps
ROM: [Build][21.10.2010][NexusHD2-FRG83 V1.5 PPP + RMNET (Froyo 2.2.1)]
Kernel: Hastarin 7.7
SetCPU: 1152/1152/ondemand
MicroSD: Transcend 8GB Class 6
Please note that I ran Quadrant and Neocore multiple times and I am showing the highest score achieved. I recommend you to do the same. I have seen 1994, 1997, 2015, 2017.
Here is Quadrant Score breakdown:
CPU - 6405
Memory - 1139
I/O - 1958
2D - 309
3D - 418
I noticed that 2D and 3D scores are not fluctuating as much as the other scores, though overclocking does slightly increase their values.
Thanks,
-CJ
Here is my most recent result:
Quadrant Score: 1570
ROM: Mdeejay evo sense 2.2 rEVOlution
Kernel: Hastarin 7.7
SetCPU: 1152/1152/interactive
MicroSD: Transcend 8GB Class 6

Kernel: Hastarin 7.7

that's quite some result!

SetCPU: 250/1152/conservative (performance doesn't change score)
MicroSD: Sandisk Class 6 (Ultra version)
I think it would be useful for those who have quadrant advanced to post the breakdown of their score to see exactly how everyone differs so much.
Not to be a buzzkill but a synthetic benchmark result from any of these programs doesn't really mean anything. It's more than possible to have a high linpack/neocore/xyz benchmark result and have a sluggish, unresponsive UI. You can do all sorts to Android to inflate your score but what counts is being able to use the phone day to day, with no problems.
how are you guys running neocore. my phone keeps telling me i dont support qualcomm accelerated graphics. then it force closes.
ive tried nearly all android builds, with a variety of available kernels.
none of them seem to allow me to run neocore. however i can get a 2k score in quadrant advanced.

Neocore FC could be a kernel issue (and/or maybe related to stagefright). Try Hastarin's 7.7 kernel and/or make sure stagefright is enabled.

Not to be a buzzkill but a synthetic benchmark result from any of these programs doesn't really mean anything. It's more than possible to have a high linpack/neocore/xyz benchmark result and have a sluggish, unresponsive UI. You can do all sorts to Android to inflate your score but what counts is being able to use the phone day to day, with no problems.

This is a thread I will be updating tonight and tomorrow, I will be comparing benchmark performance for stock, the new paranoid android build and an unofficial cyanogenmod build compiled for the new nexus 7 (It uses the exact cyanogenmod code, nothing custom. Just to tide us over before nightlies. I will test all of these roms with and without jassy's kernel (Yes I will be rooting stock for that.)
Stock Benchmarks:
Antutu Benchmark:
19318
Quadrant Benchmark:
5229
3d Mark Ice Storm Benchmark:
11866
3d Mark Ice Storm Extreme Benchmark:
7210
Stock with Root and Jassy's Kernel (Using Jassy's settings w/ 1890 mhz clock) Benchmarks:
Antutu Benchmark:
21803 (Large improvement)
Quadrant Benchmark:
6757 (Very large improvement)
3d Mark Ice Storm Benchmark:

I made a thread of Quadrant benchmarks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-t3090789/post60360984?nocache=1#post60360984
and some of the results were a bit puzzling. I'm not saying invalid or wrong because in many respects they accurately reflect actual hands-on experience. But I did wonder about the Memory scores and the I/O scores and, in NightOwl, the unusually high CPU scores (explanation of CPU score from bauner in original thread), so I decided to also run Antutu and post the results (in a new thread, for clarity). This will take some time but by the end there should be a set of comparable benchmarks for the GT-N700 running:
Samsung JB 4.1.2 - stock, no 3rd party recovery
CM 10.1.3 (last stable CM release for GT-N7000) - with cwm as shipped with CM 10.1.3
CM 11 latest nightly - with cwm as shipped with CM 11.
NightOwl (Bauner's implementation of CM 12.1 on GT-N7000)
NightOwl (Bauner's implementation of CM 12.1 on GT-N7000) but with raw kernel (currently version r10).

More later.
btw there is enough variation between multiple runs of the benchmark that the results for NightOwl with and without Raw kernel can be considered identical....edit: probably!

Hi, would you be making a compilation of ROMs and Kernels available here? I am going to make a benchmark test on Carbon 4.4 with R10 and Forest kernels and felt this could be used as a comparison thread.
No, sorry, all done. That's Quadrant and Antutu benchmarks for Samsung, CM 10.1.3, CM 11 and CM 12.1.
I think that's enough for anyone to draw some broad conclusions about the performance of the most likey to be used firmwares.
I didn't measure battery life or remark on hardware support but obviously Samsung's own firmware is best if you want everything to work as expected. It also has extremely good battery life in power saving mode. CM 11 is probably the least satisfactory as it has much poorer battery life, does dumb stuff with the backlights of the hardware buttons, and minimal S-Pen support and doesn't support audio out via dock. CM 10.1.3 is similar in terms of hardware support but is less power hungry and the button backlights have not been modified by a lunatic. CM 12.1 is probably the best of the ROMs. It's the only non-Samsung ROM I ever tried which is not constantly keeping the CPUs busy. I would choose Samsung or Bauner's NightOwl but with raw kernel. Raw kernel supports backlight buttons actually working as backlight buttons! Seems like a small thing but having two lights pop on every time you touch the screen (the screen, not just the buttons!) is totally dumb, and so is having no backlights when you need to use the device in poor light.
