Poll with custom roms would be great tho
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

cm7 ofc

I'm using Goatrip. Very fast, very stable.

You wont find the answer here, every rom is special and you just need to test and try. By testing you also learn how to safely manage your phone, and this knowlege is must-have i you are planning to use custom roms. Enjoy your testing.

for me!

If you are really interested, search for the thread with a list of roms, then create a poll based on that list...
The best rom is the one that makes your phone look "cooler", adds nice features and got NO BUGS....
One tip for you: When testing custom roms (and kernels) stay on RFS, dont go converting the file system just yet.
The best custom rom / optimized kernel is the one that makes your tel. smooth and responsive WITHOUT the need off LAGFIXES / File system conversions...SPECIALLY on Gingerbread which got a more optimized RFS
For example: Criskelo's Rom

And thats called the SGS 2

Or Stock JS8 on SGS

I have Gb Tweaky_ROM_RC2 and it's very fast and stabe.

Other than the fact that JPY is still proven to be the fastest 2.2.1 firmware for the SGS.

stock deodexed JVB with tweaks (glow, crt off, tw4.0, cwm, 5-lock, ext menu)
so yeah it's like my own personalized rom

So I did a first time flash to darky's 9.5 the other day and immediatly after applied the voodoo lagfix that came with it... you say converting the file system is bad if playing around with different roms... is there a way for me to convert the file system back to rfs? thanks.

Use either the included voodoo control app or boot to recovery and disable lagfix.
When on darky's though visit darky's site and flash the newer Dark Core kernel here
Personally stay off GB Rom's until a final official bug free base is released by samsung.
If you want to play around a bit more with the look of your phone look at themes's and also alternative launchers (Launcher Pro & ADW Launcher Ex)
I will have to agree with others though, it's down to personal preference, me I always used Doc's Rom Kitchen, then Darky 9.5 came alone and I've tried others including GB and ALWAYS go back to darky's.

i have only used Darky and romkitchen.Both easy to use and clear instructions.

Ok yeah I plan on staying with darky's 9.5 until the Bell GB update comes out. I love it so far. Amazingly fast and stable. Plus my battery life has gone up tenfold.
I just wanted to make sure that I can undo the lagfix easily (with the voodoo control app) when the Bell update comes out.
Cheers!

According to curio, the SGS2 has ext4 and no Rfs, thus lagfixes are unnecessary.

I can see that you are looking for custom ROM, but if you want the best, go with XXJPN, clean, stable and fast, you wont get over hyped quadrant scores but you'll get butter smooth and fast phone. Custom ROMS for SG3 are buggy and overbloated. If you are looking for overclock, just flash Fugumod kernel in XXJPN. JIT, Lagfix, SWAP, Compcache, deodex etc. do more harm than good, and really just pump your benchmark scores, no real performance gains.

Custom ROMS for SG3 are buggy and overbloated?? Why do you say that?

lestatious 1.8 with fugumod 2.2 is very good and stable!! one of the best roms that ive seen!!
and galactic blur rom is the newest rom and has very few bugs or hardly any bugs as far as i know..!!
kyrillos rom is also very popular here i havent tried it though!!
Then some roms like apocalypse and indroid are in beta stage and will be bugfree soon!!
so you do have many choices eh!!

clarkkov said:
Well, bugs span from themes to core system functionality. I have no intention to count all of the bugs here. I guess bloat is a personal preference, it depends what apps are you using. I don't use half of the included apps/hacks/mods in (better known) custom ROMs so they are nothing but bloatware for me.
Now, don't get me wrong, I respect custom ROM developers, but it's just not my thing for reasons I stated above. I think there are too many custom ROMs and they actually don't offer anything special, all hacks/mods are developed and available individually.

try Destiny

Not to start another thread, i would like to ask the same question. Some time has passed so i was wondering what is the best rom to flash on my sister's phone (most stable tested so far by galaxy 3 users) Thanks.

I think Destiny is the most stable one...

i know for this ones i've flashed myself and tested a lot:
Kyrillos' rom 9.4(i didn't update to 9.5 )
Kyorarom Ascendency 0.5.1(i didn't update to 0.5.2)...
those two were the most stable, nice looking, fast....for me
but now i'm on (check signature) and i just can't get of it....it's stable, faaaasttt like SR71...and i like it....a looot...but it's not complete as is based on cm7a7 and has same problems as^^^....but for me it's just fine

Sent from Galaxy
Kyrillos' ROM v10 GWK74 beta

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks. I just flashed Kyrillos' rom v9.0 NON OC version.

i tried almost all roms best and fastest i ever used is Kyorarom Ascendency v0.5.1
i have never had so fast rom before if you want your phone to work fast than flash this rom but if you want your phone to have good games and be slower then flash kyrillos that rom is good too but slower

I will give her the phone to use it and after a few days if she doesn't like it i'll try this one too.
Thanks.

I thinks the better is Kyrillos Rom !

I think Kyrillos is a good ROM (I won't say the best because I didn't test all ROMs).
The version 9.5 has a very good power management, the battery real last longer, and performances are here, the app2sd works like a charm.
I never had any problems with this ROM.
Now I'm using Kyrillos 10, it work fine to, but I feel like battery last a bit less than in 9.5, I had problems with App2SD (now using Link2SD and it's fine).

Please... many threads like this have already been closed. All our phones may be galaxy3, just that one rom may lag on one and may be super smooth and lagfree on another. DM lagged on my phone but was the fastest rom on some. Kyorarom was the fastest on my galaxy 3. Please there is no best rom, as user a will say kyrillos, user b says kyorarom, user c says dutchmods, etc, etc. Please no more such threads...

recommend a rom

after becoming fustrated with the lack of a update for north/latin america, ive decided to flash my phone. Im currently on jh2 and its working really well without problems. Ive download jpm to flash but not sure if it will work as its a european rom and also been hearing recently it has a few bugs like the battery showing an incorrect percentage.
So can any1 tell me if it will work/recommend me one that will.

Well i can tell you one thing - you will be getting lots of advises !
However, first you might try the latest Canadian Firmware which was released last week since that seems to be the closest stock ROM you can get for North America
P.S. - You might check THIS THREAD too...

That jpm bug is real i think

I've installed indroid 4.2 and it's a really nice rom. The only thing until now that's not working is the gps. It takes really long time to get a fix. And when i get a fix, my google navigation crashes. In indroid 3 it was working perfectly.

Thanks for all the responses guys. As this is my first time flashing ill stick with stock. I have the the jpm without bootloader files so ill give it a go.
Btw anyone know if its recommended to remove your sim and sd when flashing or optional.

use stock JPM most of the custom roms are stock modded and nothing special..
Use stock and your own ****ty tweaks which is a lot better !

I recommend cyanogemod....Marcellusbe is working on that. It will be great if he finishes it.

try Destiny Based on JPN, and its fully stable.

I recommand the Kyrillos'ROM 5.5
It's the more stable and battery saver rom i've ever tried !

And yes, cyangenmod when it's finished, big thanks to marcellusbe
sorry for my english.

Even the indroid developers respond very quick and to the point. Rudolf is awesome. @everyone: go for indroid 4.3

Hi
My preference is:
Kyrillos 5.7 JPM-based with Fugumod 2.2 Bleeding Edge kernel OC 1300mHz
Most stable ROM I've used, quick responses and no FC so far (only been using again for 8 days but hey all the others I tried would FC a few times a day). I love it!
Switched to Indroid for a while and it is good but went back to Kyrillos as I prefer it.

Ive finally flashed (jpm). I just couldnt wait anymore. Everthing seems to be working good thus far, Thanks for all the help.

for american roms try stock DTLKDA or rafo's ROM those are the only ones I know for america I am currently on Rafo's Rom and its very stable btw I am new to this forum

I would recommend using team lambent kitchen and creating your own personal rom. I'm using jpq with g3 v1.32 lite for extra stability. G3 has a ram script built into it already so just remember not to install the ram hack performance mod.

What is the best ROM for SGS

Hey ,
guys what is the best ROM rigth now for SGS ( ROM + kernel )?
im looking for good battey and the fastest that can be xD
i dont care about the design
what u guys think?
the ROMs i have been told that good are
Simply Honey
CM7
what u guys think about this 2 ROMs ?

I think the best one is the stock JVP, with a fugumod kernel. Install a deodexed so you can install mods, like gtalk with video, a Gingerbread theme and you're good to go!

but what if i will flash that kernel with simply honey rom?
its may work or its will make a problems?

Try juwe you won't regret
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

juwe's with semaphore kernel

(ROM) GingerCriskelo V7x
[KERNEL] DarckCore 2.7.3
2gether are flyin'

I'm using the Simply Honey since 3.5 but the last one 3.6.1 is very nice and stable.

@Elia: just try some ROMs and you'll find your favourite one.

Go for what's in my signature.. And i've tried lots of gingerbread.

juwe rom + dark core kernel for me. fast n nice theme

Tweaky's ROM, DarkCore kernel, Gingerbread launcher from Market. Best combination for me. Fast, stable and nice looking (stock glass screen, stock Gingerbread theme, 3D app drawer).
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S running Tweaky's ROM with XXJVP Gengerbread

The best rom that i've just found for my SGS after 2 months is:
Rom: RomKitchen jvp (all the basic stuff, you don't need all the crappy things for Samsung) with Modem JVP
Kernel: Semaphore_kernel_JVP_1.2.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908).
New drivers, compatible with Tegra: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427).
I removed for caution software update process.
I OC'ed my phone to 1200 mhz and works very well. Only one freeze in 5 days.
The Quadrant score is ~ 2200 - 2750. (i know it's irrelevant but i had to mention about this)
The phone is really fast - i can compare with CM7.
The battery life is very very good.
Take a try and tell me if you like it.

agreed dont know how everyone can say get gingerbread when it has bugs that are not in 2.2.1..
there is a battery drain bug .. may be fixed in 2.3.4 not sue
there is a non working vpn bug over 3g
there is a non working adhoc wifi supplicant
bug
non of these bugs are in 2.2.1
also my favorite kernel for 2.1.1 is speedmod.. i gut almost 3 days of battery.

Don't forget that while CM7 is a fully independent ROM, and MIUI is based on CM, all the others are based on stock.
So by taking a clean deodexed stock and patching it, you can get exactly what you want - but not the crappy themes and buggy mods we often find in stock - based ROMS.
Actually the best ROM is probably the one yoi generate from the kitchen, but I don't know if JVP is available yet.

I've tried various gingerbread stock roms and found JPJV6 the fastest and energy saver
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Goatrip 2.0 for me, best ROM by far & I've been through a few

there is no one "BEST ROM" the question is what you looking for.
some have more battery time and some look better than the others.
so like isaid, the question is what you need and want

JVP with Tegrak under ONEnand Mode I suppose.

there are no such best ROM, but features u wanna have on custom ROMs. U need to know what is ur preference then choose ur own custom ROM.
Speed? definately CM7 but its still on beta.
Speed and features? Juwe's but a bit dull on the black and white.
SGS 2 apps? Tweaky ROM
Kernel? I suggest Talon 1200. Still on dev but still gives best performance and battery saving.

had darky, cyanogen, and now i'm trying Ryyu's EDB
i want the latest rom... like you not stock

Best rom at the moment?

Hi!
Im thinking about install a new rom to my phone but cant decide which...
I want a rom with so small bugs thats possible but still some features that makes the phone better
I installed this Clockwork Recovery for a pretty long time ago and dont remember what it do
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044585
So I wounder if I need it or just can remove it?
And if I gonna install a new rom, which Recovery is the best at the moment?
Would be very thankfull if somone with more experience could tell me their opinion!

My prefer is void. (2.2.2; #eridanus) by Noejn.

Install Perfect Recovery 4.0.0.5 and try yourself all ROMS.

Okey will try that rom and recovery
But if im not happy with the rom can I then change back to the orginal?

IF you take a backup with recovery yes,!
Sent from my u8800 using XDA App

At the moment definitely VOID 2.2.2 latest

What makes void so great? Dec got rid if his phone so no more updates. Might as well use something that'll get new fw updates..

I believe that Oxygen is the best Rom at the moment. Miui is very good as well, but with Oxygen battery life is amazing (more than 40h, with wifi and BT on all the time) and it's got most things sorted.

It maybe so, but at least camera is fully functional.

So, which ROM would you suggest overall? Fully fuctional, acceptable battery life, speed etc. I'm with B137 v8.2 and I feel I need something new.
FYI, I usually clock the cpu to 1Ghz or 1,2Ghz.

then go for the v8.4 & his new kernel
http://bbs.goapk.com/thread-3177723-1-1.html
http://bbs.goapk.com/thread-3423090-1-1.html
this is the most stable rom atm with good performance. other roms are faster but some things dont work or they are not stable.
your choice.

how do you know that is. good Rom. did you tested it already? so is a room like void with Android 2. 2. 2

i use this rom for almost 2 months now. from v7 i think.
i never ever had a fc reboot etc (except 1 time i had the cpu at 1.5ghz).
everything is working fine, the only small problem lies in the modified franco kernel genokolar used (he modified it to be even more stable),
it has some problems on charging (franco's kernel had them also as i have read, i dont know if its fixed on his newest version cause the modified one is 1 version older than 20 july one).
(u can avoid that problem the kernel creates by not flashing the kernel and keeping v8.4 kernel).
here is a link that i have uploaded both 3
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V99GYVBN
dont forget to install superuser from market or root will not work without it (as everywhere else also).
for the ones that want performance its not the best out there but its still a good one.
i get 24xx at quadrant at 1.3ghz when this void user gets the same at 1.5ghz but i get lower on antutu (3018, made a 2nd run and scored 3167 if it matters) propably cause of the 0.2gz less cpu speed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15978575&postcount=326
but this oxygen user gets allot more than me on 1.3ghz http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16303582&postcount=391
(i have also 1.2gb worth of apps installed if this matters)
the good thing this rom has is stability and everything works, from what i read most other roms have things not working, bugs and not that great stability, miui is a VERY good rom also (has its small bugs) cause its based on 2.3.5 but i dont like miui style ^^ (personal opinion).
oh i forgot to mention that its totally stock (except 1 small app with reboot,shutdown etc options).
i made some changes please re-read my answer

btw, my ideos is u8800H, is it compatible also? and i had flash with muui1.7.3 (android2.3), is it can flash back? ( use recovery tools to flash?)
thanks for help.

yeah its for the u8800H also as i can remember. you can keep a backup and if you dont like you can go back anytime...
oh and flash works just fine, i dont see any reason not working.
there is a new miui version that came out before an hour, try it first cause you maybe like it better (since i see you already have miui).

Thank you very much. I have flashed your uploaded three files and would like to confirm that this v8.4 is the best ROM for u8800 nowadays. BTW, since the original ROM is from China, I do hope to have your help to keep update this ROM whenever there is a new version or any changes.

no problem, i can keep you updated, at least until Genokolar decides to put his work here.

tried the v8.4 from Genokolar on my UK Huawei U8800 and it didn't work kept looping at the start screen, so I went back to using the FLB Custom ROM
