Currently on Bionix v and it's just too tempting.... time to flash!
Any advice for me? The choice is the latest release of Axura (2.3.1) or Trigger (2.5)...
Which way would you go???
I have been tempted to flash bionix. I seen videos and looks to be very impressive. why are you switching?

First let me say that I think that all of the Devs here do a fantastic job, and in the end it is probably a bit subjective as to which ROM you prefer. I have seen many say that both Axura and Trigger are the bomb... and there is only one way to find out! The only other reason would be that it appears that the Devs of these ROM's are a bit more responsive - not that TW is not - it just somehow seems that they are a bit overwhelmed (more users, more questions?) and many of the answers come from other users rather than the DEV's .... not bad, just different. Again, I'm not flaming anyone - all of the DEV's here are amazing!
I'd go for Axura because I've been wanting to try it. But earlier this week I flashed Flagship (coming from Bionix) and I haven't been displeased at all.
But it's all personal preference.
I flashed Trigger 2.1 couple a days ago with DoW kernel by Morphic and I can tell you that this beast is incredible fast and so smooth. Couple of months ago I hated my vibrant but now it's running at its real capacity.

2.2.1 stock beta 2. also works great with the DOW14 kernel.
This is interesting... I would have thought that Axura 2.3.1 would run away with the vote as it is a more mature ROM....

and by the time you try them all, there will be new ones and new versions of them. lol.
I'd go with axura best rom I've used...I've used bionix v and bionix v 1.2, koffeblack (bad didn't appeal to me just launcher pro with a custom dock) , some touch wiz rom with LG optimus 2x Widgets (forgot it's name) , Loki 1-3 (really good), and axura (its fast, stable, and sexy with tons of themes). I haven't used trigger yet but I hear its good. Its up for you to decide but I prefer axura the most and I know most people would if they tried it out also! It also comes stock with launcher pro, adw, zeam (I use this) , and Eugene's gingerbread launcher not Steven lins. It also has a custom star wars unlock screen plus the best transition I've seen and you can make them extra smooth by making it slow on spare parts app which is included .

Wow, thanks for this! I have watched Master's thread too, and it seems that he is concentrating on one build and making it better and better.
Just for confirmation, flashing between these three great roms: Axura/Trigger/Bionix-V, one DOES NOT need to disable voodoo, correct??

I can say for sure Axura and Bionix don't need it as I have gone between them often.
Personally, I love Axura. It's fast, rock-stable, and there are a nice variety of themes and mods all on their home site (Devsforandroid.com).
I'm a pretty demanding user, and I havn't had any problems or even a moment of lag or buggieness with this ROM.
Just my 2 cents, of course, spend it as you will.

True, but I'm just looking for ROMs that people recommend/use daily that work well. I'm gonna try DamageR right now, I've already tried DamageControl and Flipz, so I'm gonna try some other ones and see how it goes.

SEARCH AND READ...that's seems to be the answer to every single post being made today. It's all here in black and white. One search I recommend in all honesty is search the word:
"BENCHMARK" and read the thread started by flipzmode. It's a really good read.

I just spit coke all over the computer at school...thanks Kbizz.
RegawMOD is pretty good and the new FreshToast is also fast once it's setup right... I've tried just about every 2.1 rom available on this site and those are the ones I like the most.
I know it benchmarked the worst but as far as regular use RegawMOD 2.1 is the best and fastest running rom in my experience, that is also on the .29 kernel...
If you search for flipzmode benchmark you will see that all 2.1 rom all run about the same speed.
Other then flip/toast OC rom should run the fastest and its the only rom that will actually show a big difference in benchmarks.
Water it down like all the other "fast" roms and youll have one that is actually fast do to overclocked processor.
Its not made for everyone, and the camera isnt working yet (i have a feeling its not far away).

Hey no problem!! Bout choked myself when I first read it.. My favorite rom name to date!! Wish I could cook.....
This is hardly a scientific analysis, but I have been running DC, flipz, and Regaw's roms interchangably for the past few weeks, and today switched from Sense to the Helix launcher.
The biggest difference in UI performance came from ditching Sense...it was actually a noticeable difference in responsiveness
That being said, I don't think you'll notice a whole lot of difference between the individual ROMs with Sense, so base your choice on what programs/features each ROM has versus which is fastest...in everyday use, you won't be able to tell a difference, IMHO.
So I got DarchVanilla, and I really like it, but the market doesn't have all my apps.. Is there a fix for this yet?? I really like this one, it's very responsive and close to lag free.

+1 The reason I chose RegawMOD is because it was basically a stripped down rom. It allowed me the room to load the programs that I wanted without having to strip useless (for me) programs from the rom. Very nice, stable.
I've found that using Ic3Rom with some apps removed from it, the old OpenGL restored on it, and Launcher2 installed, it's incredibly fast. It looks like AOSP, but has the current stability and function of a HTC ROM. Give it a shot if you haven't
I've used almost all of the roms available out there I thing fresh works better, if u don't want lag you would hve to use aosp

+1 for RegawMOD being the best of the ones currently available that gives me what I want. I really like fresh 2.0d except that is was really laggy IMO too. I can't handle laggy, and RegawMOD doesn't appear to have any of that lag, and so far everything I need and want works just fine on it, including googlevoice, but I only use googlevoice for my voicemail, no idea about sending and receiving calls with it.

I should be getting my SGS tomorrow coming from the nexus one (CM 6.1 RC1) which im giving to my girlfriend to keep around for 2.3. Ive been lurking the forums since Friday trying to decide which Froyo Rom to install and i would like to have some opinions from you guys to help me decide. Basically im looking for an everyday driver for stability so i dont end up throwing my phone out on the highway lol. I know all froyo release for SGS are leaks but from what ive seen on the forums run decent enough to suit my needs. Thanks in advance!!
It's all just a matter of personal taste. They all appear to be good daily drivers at this point. I personally prefer Team Whiskeys work and all the black that comes with it. I also hate the Touch Whiz Launcher so Onyx is the best fit. Very stable, faster than most and has great battery life.
Personally, I have only used Obsidian (V1 and V2) Version one had a few bugs that I didn't want to deal with, so I went back to Fusion 1.2 until V2 came out the next day. I have been running Obsidian V2 for about 1.5 days now and I have had absolutely no problems. I haven't had any FCs or random shutdowns, etc.. It is very snappy and I have been getting very good battery life (I still had 12% battery left last night after about 15 hours, and for much of that time I was using it heavily (texts, calls, graphic intensive games, etc..)) I have seen good reviews for the other Roms as well, however, I can only speak for Obsidian V2 and I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for stability. However, some people have encountered some bugs, so make sure that you read the instructions carefully and you should be fine. You may wait for V3 to come out too, since I am guessing it will be coming out pretty soon.

Again personal taste. I didn't really like the bionix rom, it felt a little slower to me than Eugene's R10 and his roms are constantly improving. Right now waiting is the best answer as both of them are still making adjustments and should have updates within the next couple days.

Personal taste +10
That said, I'll put in a plug for Anderdroid's AOSPish Froyo ROM.
With some trepidation I flashed it earlier this week and to say that I am pleasantly surprised would be an understatement. It's a really good ROM. It's fast, it's been very stable for me, and the battery life has been fantastic - by far best battery I've experienced yet on any ROM.
Also, I haven't tried any of the Bionix Froyo builds, but I am coming from the Bionix Final ROM, which was great, but I just got tired of all of the blackness - and the incredibly cheesy boot/shutdown sounds.
Anderdroids Froyo ROM has a stock Android look, which I'm really liking at this point. Very clean, nice looking ROM.
I'd definitely recommend it.

That rom also peeked my interest as im not interested in samsungs bloatware A.K.A touch wiz. Not fond of boot up or shutdown sounds either but i think im gonna check out Onyx first then get my AOSPish on. Its look pretty clean.

This is def going to be my first flash when my phone arrives. Im assuming you just flash through recovery without messing with odin.

Im sure i would'nt be the only one here who would do such a thing
If you have a new phone you just root it and then go and download ROM Manager for Root Users (Clockwork) and install that. Then flash Clockwork recovery and boot into Clockwork and flash Onyx. Getting the downloads and the files copied over is probably the hardest part of doing it, lol.
what is this onyx that you guys are speaking about? Is it the same as Obsidian?

I largely agree too. I like Gingerclone's look the best out of all of them, but I was getting a lot of FC's. I like Axura's battery life, but the skin isn't quite my style. I like Nero too, but they update way too much (not necessarily a bad thing!), so I'm flashing every other day (it's addictive, they're feeding my habit :-/) or so now that I'm trying it out.
Nothing wrong with trying all three. Just make sure you get Titanium Backup!

Aura 2.2 w/Voodoo 5 Kernel JL5 (or stock kernel) stable, zero bugs, good battery, not themed to any heavy degree. A friendly community website. Only downside; juvenile boot animations. I can change that, it's almost cute and funny, ugh.
Upside; Aura 2.2 fixes all the Voodoo kernel bugs for me and more. Good Dev support, so far.
Simply fast and smooth, with no dark brooding teen theme, or Vegas whisky look.
I like Eugene's stuff too, just too much work to tune the right combo of battery and performance. But sometimes I run his stuff because of the fast updates and multiple options. And he gets the newest leaks quick.

A backup of your files plus a flashing of a new ROM takes about 15 mins max. That's just to get a feel of the ROM and it's functions. So just flash them both, or even more and decide what YOU like.
If you want to test out the battery life, well that will take using the ROM for a few days. No one can truly tell you the difference in battery life because we all use our phones so differently.
I will say this tho: I've used both , and was a diehard TW ROM fan but then I used Trigger. I LOVE Trigger. But it's mostly because of the themeing and because of how involved the dev is in his own ROMs thread with answering questions and taking the users advice, requests, and opinions.
But again, it's really up to what YOU like. Don't listen to dumb quadrant scores and such and others battery opinions. Try them out and see. Both are great ROMS with their own pluses and minuses

No need to disable voodoo if you're flashing from the red recovery. It was an issue with the original voodoo kernels (JAC's) and the ulf ones, but not anymore (in my experience, at least). I was also a TW fan until I tried out Trigger a month or so ago. Haven't changed since.
OP, gonna have to agree with the others. It's your phone, your usage. Try each one out and stick with whichever one you like best. They're both great rom's though.

As long as your rom is currently running voodoo then just as the post above mine stated, no you do not have to disable voodoo.
Hold down power button, click recovery, and if it takes you to a red recovery then you can just flash away like normal.
BTW, Trigger just updated to 2.8.1 today with a nice memory tweak and a couple other small tweaks. GREAT ROM
Thanks a lot guys. I really appreciate your responses. Will do just as advised. Thank you.
I havent used trigger so I cant comment on it, but Ive been a huge TW fan since Nero 4. Stayed with it and I'm still super stoked about the look and the performance.

I used to be a HUGE fan of TW and their roms. I used TW roms since Bionix 1.3.
But ever since I tried EDT roms especially Trigger, I dont think I'm gonna bother with TW anymore. Its just that much better.
Been using bionix v 1.2.1 for a while now. Love this rom.

Right now im using bionix and loving it. Trigger is wonderful as well and it seem faster. they have diffrent thems and small differences here and there. so close i basicly had to nit pick to pick one. trigger i had sms problem had to have it a certain format. could this be fix proabably so. for some reason i had a data issue as well other than that everything was great on trigger fast and smooth. Bionix didnt have those issues for me so i went back im trying to find a problem to send me back to trigger but i havent found one yet im about to test battery trigger had a great battery life for me with overstock 1.5. when i checked the system slept pretty well. it would be at 1% over night while charging. time to test bionix see if it compares thats it
Can't download Trigger 2.8.1
Hi everyone,
I am totally new to modifying phones but I am quite computer literate. I like the Vibrant alot but obviously the original software does not perform too well. I have tried to download the Trigger 2.8.1 ROM via the link in the developers section but I get nothing more than a blank page staring at me. Am I doing something wrong? I would have posted there but since I am new I am not allowed
thanks

The link could have been down might want to try again. Sometimes internet explorer does the same thing to me then I use Mozollia Firefox works everytime
Thanks. I used Chrome and it worked fine
Both are good, my preference is trigger but you really can't go wrong with either.

Im using bionix v right now and I.love how snappy it is. I wanna know the other versions are. Are they as snappy as bionix v? Stable? Thanks

Out of all of them, I prefer Bionix-V, Gingerbread look, snappy, fast, it's awesome. <3
Aoght thanks. So far bionix v has been my favorite rom out of aall the ones I've tried. But I wanted to get a more updated one with the same benefits.

Im running bionix v 1.3.1 and I've made some changes to it using some tweeks used in toxic 8 and made this rom twice as snappy with awsome battery life like that of toxic 8 if interested just say the word
I used the script manager ,kick ass kernel tweaks,bali kernel,kb5 modem, and the build.prop from toxic crazy 8.....had to modify it a tiny bit....
Your probly wondering why I went thru all this trouble...
I love both rims but found a few bugs in craxy8 that I couldn't stand.....and after a little while other aspects of the rom started getting glitchy.....and since the creater of toxic crazy 8 has moved on.....I chose not to bother him with it.....
I found no issues with bionix other than battery life wasn't nearly as good as toxic crazy 8 and wasn't quite as fast and snappy.....so I took it apon myself to merge what I feel to be the 2 best 2.2 roms together..well sorta mixed them
I have used Bionix v1.3.1 with Bali kernel for a long time and it is the most stable rom I have used on the Vibrant. My brother uses Nextgen V2 with Immortality v2.2 and that is super snappy too. V2 seems to have a different launcher by default, and generally has more third party apps preinstalled (I delete them with Titanium Backup).
For some odd reason, that same combo does not work on my Vibrant and crashes a lot. I guess even between the same phone there are differences within that we do not know about (the color on screen also looks different...and it has nothing to do with Voodoo color). Good luck finding your favorite rom/kernel combo!

Lol nothing to be sorry about my friend.....im just sayin
They're all great, but Frost is very old, it was (i think one of)the first SGS4G ports, it was 2.2.1, but it had its bugs, and was very laggy without a custom kernel. Bionix V 1.3.1 or Bionix NextGen v2 is your best bet if you want a TW froyo rom.
