Hey I have a question, sorry if its been stated as I'm from the vibrant forum
I'm going to be rooting my sisters epic tonight, and was wondering what rom would be the best (she complains about battery life) so any suggestions would be great!
Thanks everyone, and again sorry if its been Asked.
Sent from my SGH-T959
I know you didn't mean to, but yes, this has been posted a billion times =P
And here is my answer: There is no "best" ROM; it depends on the User's experience. In my opinion, I like SyndicateROM Frozen the most, but there are so many others too, like midNIGHT, Bonsai4All, UrbanFury, etc. There really is no "best" ROM.
Here's another forum with the same question to give you a little more insight:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037394
Sorry if it's not really a direct answer, but then again there really is no answer.
Hope this helps!
Yeah this us to hard to answer. Its all personal opinion. Just flash them all and luck the one you like the best. They are all great so none of then will disapoint you at all

Yeah, what they said
If I were you I would start with syndicate rom. You will get a stable rom with support if something goes wrong. Midnight is great but the Dev sold his phone and won't be on here as much to help. It is based off of Bonsai.
Bonsai is not on here anymore. They started there own site that requires you to sign up and asks for a donation every time you download. I don't mind them asking but Bonsai has gotten out of hand.
I use midnight but am going back to syndicate as soon as K0nane and the rest of ACS release the newest ROM.
I used to use Frankenstein which is based on syndicate but his ROM is too new this time for me to try it. I wait for others to work out the bugs. LOL.
Samsung Epic with Midnight for now
EC05 Stock Plus. Stock experience with tweaks and bug fixes that make stock what it should be.
Viper Synergy 5.0
Viper Synergy 5.0 on ext4 with EC05 modem. BTW, Viperteam and ACS roms are the best but I prefer Viper. Viper Synergy 5.0 would be my recommendation.

I was skeptical about trying anything other than an AOSP rom, since I like minimalistic rom, but seriously Syndicate ROM is a wonderful rom that has minimal customizations and is super fast.
tl;dr: +1 to Syndicate rom.

Far from it. But the customizations are stable, all make the ROM faster, and are minimal in terms of adjustments to looks.

People under estimate the amount of stuff that goes into customizing the framework and tweaking io settings and other misc settings to make a rom fast, just because you don.t see it doesn't mean it didn't take work...

Your rom is pretty perfect, man. Huge props
The one other bug that I've found that I've been meaning to tell you about (though it won't let me post in that thread) is that the phone appears to be entirely broken...
Otherwise, it's still perfect.

It's not broken, you have bad data/cache/dalvik-cache/need to Fix Permissions/need to Odin to stock EC05, wipe and reflash/need to wipe SD card and perform the previous.
As for fixing permissions, how would I do that?
As for using Odin, I tried that a long time ago and my Epic would not connect to any computers, is there another way to get stock EC05?
I believe the ROM I was using before, Truly Epic ROM, was based off DK28.

I'm really not sure... I originally flashed the ROM coming from Truly Epic ROM v1.5, going to SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1.0, had some troubles, so factory reset, reinstalled Syndicate, had the phone app work off and on for a day, and now it's completely stopped working.
Sorry I'm not very good at this....
Odin to stock EC05, format your SD card, redownload the ROM, wipe 3x, flash.

It depends of what you want, speed, stability, latest, etc, and what your phone can handle mine can't handle overclock for example.
IMHO Eclair TeamWhisky Fusion Rom, Froyo Axura 2.0.4 Master.
I hope this help you.

haha! you said it well! I was about to say this.
Axura, and .5 should be even better once released.
You should go to the dev section and read about the different roms. They have different things that are good about each. Also different roms might work better on your phone than others. The 3 most popular seem to be Eugene, Axura and Team Whiskey(not in any order). FOr me Obsidian 4.2 with stock Kernal works the best for me. Like I said read first. One other thing I would say do is ODIN between each different Rom maker you use.
Obsidian v5 is running very smooth and fast for me, plus I love the black theme. I'd recommend it!
its all a matter of personal preference I personally like the Auxra ROM I like the looks the speed the battery life and the screen transitions! But look into the Android Development forum and read the feed back.

I do it just to keep from getting Ghosts. Its just my opinion.
Ive tried them all and I personally prefer axura for its amazing speed and battery life. The GPS works great for me too. Combined with Eugene's A14 ULF OC/UV kernel this rom flies. But be careful with the ulf kernel. I've had some pretty serious issues with converting dbdata to jfs...I would totally lose my data connection.

He was just messing with you, we have no gingerbread.
For me, it's stock JI6+JI2 modem + /data/data symlinked to /dbdata/data + root. It's fast as hell, solid as a mountain and gives me no problems at all.
i haven't flashed any of eugene's more current roms so i can't speak to those. however, i've been running the obsidian and onyx roms and they are great. but i flashed axura 2.0.4 last night and have been super impressed with it.
and really, imo, there is no reason to be flashing 2.1 roms anymore. there are great froyo roms that are fully functional, stable, and smooth.
Dug through 5 pages and didn't see this topic. I'm anxious to try EXT4 on my epic and I was wondering how you all feel about the ROMs you loaded on your phones. What's your favorite and why? What other roms have you tried?
My current setup is in my Sig but I love it. Its beautiful, smooth, and completely awesome.
My setup is in my sig too. I've tried almost all and this my favorite.
I'm currently using midnight with ext4 file system and it blows the doors off the two I previously used, epic experience 2.0.0.5 and then bonsai for all 1.0.4
Take care

After going from Bonsai 1.0.4 to Quantum 2.5.0, then back to Bonsai 1.1.1, I gotta say, Bonsai rocks the socks off Quantum. It's so much more smooth and glitch free. I also didn't care for Viper's theme or the attitude from the EpicExperience guy.
i gotta say the poll results surprise me. I suppose what is important to epic owners really does vary.

What surprised you? I'm curious. I was surprised too, however the sample size is small enough that its not really indicative of anything just yet. What surprised me was how many fellow Nebula users there are and how many bonsai users there are. From what I understand those are the two least flashy roms (flashy meaning speedy or pretty or the like) but just plain jane stable roms.
I'm using nebula 1.0.6 also ith ext4 and its really minimalistic. I love it.

Four launchers installed definitely classifies as bloatware to me. Don't need a dev to install apks for me. I prefer eugene r2 gingerclone. The rom is like 60mb smaller than any other vibrant froyo rom out now.

Out of my situation I am forced to switch from the Fascinated to the epic! Im happy because I've wanted a physical keypad and front camera, but I've been confused with the Roms here, as im used to the scarcity of Roms here on the fascinate.

Over in developement all the ROMs are listed with ROM in the thread title. The features and instructions are in the first post of each.
Do you BONSAI?
They're all Froyo with the exception of Nebula rom I think. What do you mean by scarcity? I wen't over to the Evo board and the amount of roms they had made my head spin.
Yeah im.talking about my fascinate, which has allot less roms than the evo, im not speaking for xda though which generally has allot of roms. Some questions though,Is EC05 the latest froyo release? And are there any kernels w/voodoo sound that wont brick my phone?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
EC05 is the latest stock release, it just came out a few weeks ago. Sprint is working on gingerbread now but there are only rumors about a release date.
I've tried several ROMs but keep going back to stock. I'd suggest spending a day or two on stock to see if you like it. Also, there have been a few roms that have bricked phones here. I would read the forums carefully before jumping. Also, be sure you know the difference between EXT4 and RFS ROMS, what journaling is and why it's important, and what odexed/deodexed means. Mixing those up can be a bad thing.
mkasick has a few great bug fix patches that can be applied to stock EC05 roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1029152
If you just want a kernel, I'd suggest Genocide. I'm using Genocide 0.5 on a stock ROM, seems to improve battery life a little. Recent is 1.0, but there are so many changes and warnings on the first page regarding the changes i think I'll just stick with 0.5 and wait for Gingerbread.
Check out the acs rom I love it. The takiya (sp) is very stable, fast and has voodoo sound. It also won't brick your phone the kernal it comes with is good. The 'bad' kernals never got included in any roms

A journled rom means there is signifigantly less chance of data corruption should you have to do a hard reset. Non journaled you will get corruption if your battery pops out and therefor force closes.

But, there is about a 2% performance gain with no-journaling, so it's a choice between a (very very very very) slight performance gain or increased stability.

Neither are journaled, enabling journaling is literally as easy as making a NAND backup then restoring it.

I love Syndicate's rom but it did not play well with the Genocide kernel for me (or the stock Twilight kernel that comes with it for that matter). However, Syndicate w/ Vision 1.1 is Epic bliss. Stable w/ great battery life.
Im scared though of the vision kermel though, because so many complaints are being made about it...
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
1.2 was the one that caused issues as it used new methods of undervolting. It has since been pulled. Vision 1.1 is perfectly fine.
ACS = Android Creative Syndicate.
We are a team of developers. We.do kernels, roms, themes, mods and more. When you see [ACS] in the thread title it means a member of the team was behind it. We work together to create and enhance the best epic4g experience.
Please test everything from are work to others untill you find something that suites your needs. Personally I'm on Syndicate frozen rom. That was developed by k0nane and I had my hands in the.development myself. It comes preloaded witj the twilight kernel 1.1 from tanimn. Then I use the emotionless beast theme created by me. the three of us are members of ACS.
Now the truth about journaling. It was not turned off for the performance increase. That was a side effect. Journaling was turned off to extend the life of the Onenand chip. Less writes equals less wear and a little performance.

If you don't care much about bluetooth, and 4g. Id say give CM7 Alpha a try. I feel like I'm in a whole new world after installing that rom after using every rom available! Except simply asop(cm7 clone)/ which I'm getting ready to test here in just a second when its done downloading!

Simply aosp is the next best thing to cm7 IMO. Never have problems on it, something always ends up breaking at some point or another with the other roms. For me anyways.

I like SRF 1.1.1. Never tried anything else because it worked so good when I started with 1.1.0.
If you are on EE03 GB for me, the more stable ROM is anonymous V6. This guys have tried to fix most of the bugs from Swiss Cheese and more. V7 will be even more stable when they release it soon. I 100% recommended it if you guys want to try GB. Is Still a work in progress, but still very reliable.

Haven't found a really stable custom rom yet. I'm back on stock, forcing myself to wait for the Sprint Gingerbread update release.
As others have said, try some, the beauty about being rooted and having the ability to flash custom ROM's is you can change as often as you want. No harm in flashing one, trying it out for a day or 2, flashing something else for a couple days... experiment until you find the one that you personally like best. Enjoy
We only have eight roms find the one that works best for you lol. I've been on SFR since release and currently have it paired with th Genocide kernel with great results. Just make sure to enable journaling.

i run the same set up
and this is my quad
Here is a writeup of the setup I use on my phone, includfing the additional mods.
For me, the theme is the most important part, as most ROMs are pretty close to each other (except asop & cm7)
My fav setup on my Moment came from when I built my own collection from all the development pieces, so I figured I would start my collection for the Epic as well
EXT4 is a standard for me now, so after stock flashing to stock EC05, the next step is to add:
Clockwork Mod 3.0.0.6 or Clockwork Mod 3.0.2.5
Next is my base EC05 ROM, currently I am using SyndicateROM Frozen
I will probably stay with this ROM until CM7 is fixed, or a Frankenstein version is released
My FAV theme has finally been updated, here is the link to it: Honeycomb Fusion 1.1 / Addons!
Next is custom apps, I simply love the transparent MMS app, it is a themed versions of stock, and is good enough I don't need any other version: Transparent Messaging App Collection (EC05,EB13,DK28)
Then I found a transparent dialer in the thread for Erebos! Slick, Professional theme in post number 6
Another must have app, though it comes with the ROM, is WiFi Tether (ver 3.0-pre11) as it works to connect my Moment to my Epic via WiFi. Here is a link to the download page for the latest version
Added the ADW Ex Launcher, and while I still prefer LP, I am gonna keep it because the Black Glass 1.7 Theme makes my App drawer transparent!
