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.

agreed bro..!! someone should come up with a rom having some fresh features and mods!!

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

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

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...

Most Stable Stock/Custom ROM [Poll added]

Hello all, this is my first post and I have some queries. As we all know the new Samsung firmware JP2 has many bugs like Swype not working, Battery draining very fast etc. I want to know which is most stable ROM which doesn't have these problems.
I don't want to try any custom ROM because of overclocked processor as it will short it's life and void the warranty. I am thinking to flash the JPN ROM but though to get advice before doing anything. I hope it won't have any effect if I use European firmware as I am from India. I am currently using JP6.

I think you should be using Kyrillos' ROM. It's very stable.

Opt for a non-overclocked custom, you won't regret it If you really want to stay using stock roms, i'd suggest JPM/JPN.

I'm testing it. Let's go with me.

customs are a balance and trade off
well stock ROM may be the most stable but from my experience of experimentations with different roms, and i've tried many roms, if you are thinking of intalling many applications then stock roms are just useless as you would get blank/black screens too often in the stock Tw launcher as the applications try to load from SD card, where you will have to install them for want of space. so if you want to try lot of applications you will have to go for a custom rom with ext2/ext4 support. after trying many custom roms i've finally stopped at POX v 1.0 non oc. Its silky smooth and thats after installation of more than 43 third party apps/games, though you will have to live with some minor glitches which you wont mind. Yes stay away from OC versions as they drain your battery and freeze your phone. The hardware (processor) structure if galaxy3 if not designed for overclocking though it may be overclocked.

XWJPF + go launcher ex
perfect combination..no lags blazingly fast
(oh yes i,ve also rooted my phone and have set cpu.. , so maybe thats y..still XWJPF...no problems)

i have JPM and thinking of moving to XWJPN.
how is it that JPM is pre-rooted if it is official samsung firmware?

I think you should be using Kyrillos' ROM too. It's very stable.

Samsung engineers aren't idiots or fools.. JP2 is d most stable ROM for this phone. I have used custom roms and trust me..there ain't any ROM more stable.

Then i think you should try using the latest European firmware, XWJPF. Its far better than DDJP2. Trust me.

Lol JP2 has many bugs including battery draining issue. How come it is more stable?
Confused between multiple opinions. Might add a poll soon.

If you were to use custom roms, use the Non oc version by Kyrillos. From all the roms that i have tried (there have been many), i have found Kyrillos to be the best.
If you were to use regular Firmwares, the best i believe is either JPF or JPM. A lot of them out there still support JPF, while the constant flashers would recommend the JPM
BTW...Kyrillos is based on JPM

XXJPM by Kyrillos, safe flash and very stable

No worries, I think I have the perfect solution for you... In a few minutes I'll be posting my ROM, which is exactly what you need - because I made this ROM for I had the same problems as you!
Also, I'm writing this, coz I want to post it in the development section but I need 10 posts for that...

There are a lot of ROMs and as far as I see, you should try more then one, because everybody likes a different version...

Yeah, so here I am again. Uploaded, you might even try it - see if the problems go away!

Now don't mind using any custom ROM if it is stable and good to use.
Poll added just to solve some confusion between multiple choices.

InDroid
InDroid v4 looks good n is going to be released soon
i would prefer non OC as it is more stable but u can look for OC as well!

Allthough I use my own custom ROM, I vote for Kyrillos's ROM because it's very stable and fast. I use it for a long period and I was very pleased.
Kyrillos ROM is not only stable, but gives you the choise of OC or Non OC capability!

Recommend a new rom for me!

All that matters to me is speed, stability and battery life.
I have been running Darkys 9.2 for a long time now, but the battery life is getting to be very poor, so looking to try out something new.
Appart from the battery life if has been rock solid to date.
Any advice is welcome

In my opinion, there isn't a perfect rom in this world which matches your description. However, if I were to choose one, I would choose Cyanogenmod 7. It is currently on Nightly, but it is stable enough for daily usage. Battery life is not that good, but its speed complements it, combined with loads of customisations available.
I hope that helps, mate

This ^
Ive tried a bunch, I only flashed this ROM cuz Sam ported a theme I liked ended up liking the ROM since its a barebones ROM
Other then that ROM Id go with just a stock JVQ, Ive always fallen back to the stock ROMs after not liking something about the customs I installed

Thanks guys will give s.u.r.f.a.c.e a shot!
Just out of interest, does it have a lagfix like Darkys rom?
Cyanogen's battery issues are keeping me away from it for now.
I have it on my wife's wildfire and its a completely new animal since I flashed it.

F1 Galaxy S2 V6
no battery drain and smooth with galaxianEE2.4 kernel

GingerReal 7.1.4 , Semaphore 1.3.3. kernel, works briliant-e.

Search: Android Development topic

Stock is the best...

In the past weeks i tested several roms and kernels.
Roms: GingerReal 7.1.4, Surface 2.1, Juwe 5.2, CM7, Darky 10.2
Kernel: Speedmod, Galaxian, Semaphore
For me the best pair is Darkys Rom with the semaphore kernel on EXT4.
I never had such a smooth, speedy and long battery usage on any rom/kernel.

Can someone please help find a clean / stable rom

Personally I think that the best ROM he should try is: Simple Beautyone.
And one advantage, as this is ROM for HD2, based on Windows Mobile 6.5, it is even more irrelevant for him than yours...

IMHO, use MIUI as its very clean..
Then flash MyUI EnhancerMOD v3.0

Hi,
I have two roms I like to use:
Juwe's rom, now v6 version
Doctors rom, also v6 version.
Both rom are based on 2.3.5 JVT including Semaphone kernel 1.8.
Personally I prefer Doctors rom because it is very fast and the battery lasts for me 50-70 hours.

CM7 is great and what im using right now but have issues with camera in video recording...

Cm7.2 (52) is great, but not work radio fm and the default app crash on the video recording hd.
all custom roms I've tried work well, I tried:
1) arconium
2) aniking
3) mod xperia
4) Fasty
I still think that the best is the SE.TWEAKED, as a general balance, lightness and speed.
All tested with V15 DoomKernel

try MIUI you wont be disappointed

MIUI I miss, but even that seems to have something that does not work properly (FM radio, HDMI, and anything else I can not remember).
Which version you recommend?

arconium 5.6, perfect and fast and no bugs.

Guys, very recently i got the S2 for my bro and let me tell you that i am hard core SE fan and that is why i still want to hold the ARC with me
That said, i find the stock samsung's ROM very stable usable and fast, especially when compared to SE's stock ROM
Any comparisons/experience to S2's Stock/custom ROM with ours?

One of my classmates has a S2 and I had the stock ROM + SuperCharger V6 @ 1.4GHz on my Arc (arconium 5.6) now and I couldn't see a real difference

Arconium rim works best for me hehehe
Sent from my LT15i using XDA App

Take stock ROM, root it, de-bloat it (uninstall all the system apps you don't use), set up SuperCharger and you're good to go.
Don't be fooled, only CM7 is a real custom ROM.
All the rest fall into the category I described: rooted, bebloated stock ROMs.
Oh! And if you need extra speed and you're willing to sacrifice a few hours of battery life, unlock bootloader and flash a custom kernel.
That should do it.

Agreed. No point messing around with custom ROMs when the stock ROM only needs cleaned up a bit. Don't see the benefit in Supercharger if you have already uninstalled all the crapware as there's nothing running on the CPU to consume the battery power
I have had the LT18i since it came out and it's lightning fast and the battery life is great. Nuff said

Yes I did the same. But still Arconium is a lot faster and lag-free compared to cleaned stock with supercharger and the same overclocking. Really it's the best and fastest rom together with CM (if you like that) and I tried a lot. The only downside is you will get worse battery performance in stand-by (twice as worse; up to 3%/h)when you install a custom overclock kernel even at the same clock speeds. So first try with stock kernel and of you need more speed (like 1.4GHz) go to custom kernels.

IMO Complete custom ROM is MIUI as if now with less bugs. CM has few bugs that has to be fixed. As stated above other are just modified version of stock.
@iridaki : When can we see your T.E.A.M ROM?

arconium + doomkernel is the best of all !
miui is same as cm7 is video camera lags..
