SUBSTITUTE FOR Lite'ning Rom v6.1 WHICH CAN BE FLASHED WITH NO WIPES

People are waiting for an update on Lite'ning Rom v6.1 since a long time but no news from LITEPRO the maker. I really wish that LITEPRO does come up with an awesome update on lite'ning rom asap but atleast there should be an alternative to it.
I would appreciate if people can please come up with their own experiences and share their valuable information on which Rom one can install that can substitute the Lite'ning Rom without any wipes.
Things that we are looking for in another ROM are as similar to the Lite'ning Rom and they are as follows:
1. Lightning fast speed
2. NO BUGS
3. The rom can be installed without any wipes
4. Regular Updates to be made available
5. All the features that lite'ning rom contained.
Looking forward for my XDA family to come up with the best possible solution.

tried already to do a similar thing. but read the answers.. i don't think that it will really work, but i would really really love it. hope for a wonder...

Sticky? why would this be stickied?
Nothing to do with development either...

I'm too looking for other ROM.... but its to dificult....
Look all the ROM post.....
always has bug and usually has stranges themes with a lot of pictures....
I prefered the stock rom Look and a lite Blue theme.....
If you see the others...... has a lot off updates ... NOT for new base... only for include beta or news modules and packages that late fail and produce BUGS.
I can't remenber more than 5 or 6 bugs... on ROM.....
Please, tell me your next ROM.
I thinking to test :

Exactly, it has nothing to do with development nor contributes anything new other then what is floating around in all of the threads.
Not having a bash but if you wan to know what ROMs are out there to use, simply try them.
Everyone will experience different bugs as people use different add-ons like themes, diallers, kernels etc so a bug for one person isnt for another.
If you like a ROM, read the thread from the OP of that ROM, they generally have a changelog, FAQ's etc in the first few posts that will tell you if its a no wipe etc.
Backup always via CWM to revert back if youre unhappy and honestly, try all the ROM's so you can judge for yourself. If you read the first few pages you generally wont go wrong, espeically with a backup.
Something like a collective Kernel thread etc should be a sticky as that benefits everyone, not this.
I went from litening, to criskelo, cognition, skyrom and now leomar revolution. All no wipe and phones running great but thats with my setup, yours may be different so give it a go.

[ROM] [XXKI3] LeoMar75 Rom Revolution v2.7.1 - Kitchen App

this thread is only been made to get a good solution.......
i know there is no development involved in it but atleast this will help many people who are confused for which rom they should get for their phone. This will surely help many people to take a sensible decision.....

I've noticed that Wi-Fi direct doesn't work fine on lightening 6.1. I hope litepro will fix it. I don't to move to another rom cause I'm quiet satisfied with this one.

why is this in development?
Should be in Q&A.

This thread is pointless, just move on to another rom. It wont kill you to try roms that arent outdated

And the great thing about making a CWM backup (nandroid) is that you can flash new roms to your hearts content and if you don't like it, you can be back up in 2 minutes using restore. I am sure you'll find something you like. For me, I love Batista ROM it has blue themes and much more

Leomar75 rom. really a revolution rom. great in everything.

how is the battery life in this rom LEOMAR??

I used lite'ning rom for months and loved it.
Now using batista 2.1 and loving it just as much, if not more.

I was in the same position as the OP - loved LR but didn't want to get left behind with no updates from LitePro.
I've just moved to CriskleoROM today and after a minor hitch that required a reflash, it's working flawlessly.
Seems super fast.
Can't reliably report on battery life until 2nd or 3rd recharge cycle, but from what I have read it seems to be as good if not better than LR

[Q] Can anyone please help me here - Noob. <)

Hi, I'm a noob just bought a new Defy (my first Android device)
I know this will annoy most of you here, but I have been reading this forum for past few days but couldn't come to a conclusion. So thought of posting a new thead.
I have a Defy running on Eclair and wanted to upgrade to 2.3 or to some custom ROMS, but I got too much confused reading all about Stock ROMS, CM7, CM9, MIUI and other Custom ROMS.
I just want to upgrade my phone from 2.1 and I desire a ROM which will give me Great Performance and Good Battery Life.
Can anyone here be kind enough and give me a simple explanation of what should I do.
You can post a wacky caption as well.
Thank for any help.

Thanks, that clears lot things.
Can you suggest me which ROM should i choose? as i said in previous post i want to upgrade. I'm just confused with so many options. Should i go for stock ones or the custom ones? Or which one is most stable. M just looking for speed and battery life.
Thanka for your time.

Don't have time to give instructions now, but DO NOT flash a full 2.3.6 sbf/upgrade to 2.3.6! Stay on froyo. It is possible to run all custom roms with this as base, also the newest 2.3.6 gingerbread ROMs. Someone please specify for the guy^^

Okay thanks mate for that info.
Currently i'm on Eclair so i think first of all i have to upgrade to froyo then i can think of going to cm7 and othet custom roms, right?
As you all would have played with lot of custom roms, can anyone suggest me which one should i go with?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA

It's really just a matter of taste. Here are some of the main categories of custom roms:
MIUI
CM7
Modified stock roms
CM9 and CM9 based ICS roms (that's ICS, android 4 . Not stable yet, maybe never 100% without unlocked bootloader )
There are many different flavours to choose from within most of these categories, but there are already a lot of threads about this. You need to read, read, read before you start flashing custom roms. Have you read the All-in-One Defy Beginner's guide? Every defy user should read it. Every single day a noob starts a new thread about a bricked defy: "please help me, my father will kill me if he finds out about my defy", etc, etc. These questions have ben answered 1,000,000 times already, so use the search function before posting!
By the way this thread should be moved to the Q&A section. Moderator will take care of that when it's reported...

Questions go in the Q&A section

by the way, I've been used HD2 Tmous for 2 years, over Froyo, GingerBread, ICS and JB too. But GingerBread Rom with Tytung Kernel is the best, Working smooth like a charm, everything working, bit game performance lower than Sense Rom. If you findding a daily use Rom, Nexus HD & Miui 2.3 was choiced

Inndinky.. i guess you havn't updated your ROM in a longgg time.. tytung ICS also works flawlessly.. JB is near to perfection with upcoming v1.3..
PACman 1.2a is also amazing if you want to have a lot more tweaking options then tytung's ROM..
The biggest PRO with tytung ROM over others is non-technical.. ie. his change logs and instructions are far more clear and precise then any other dev thread on XDA.. and i have seen a lot of those..:good:

Call Volume not reconized the level you set before,Camera taking pictures in slow speed, HWA some time work and some time... i dont known, in this case we talk about a daily Rom, not try&tester.

Inndinky.. i never really experienced any of those issue but you could be correct.. as it had been long since i ditched GB as my first exp was with honeycomb and i opted ICS for its features over GB.. Battery drain is a problem but tweets can get you there.. camera i'll compare with GB.. thanks.. HWA and call Volume.. no problems yet.. still thanks i'll check out GB today..

First of all, nobody can answer this question. There is no 'best ROM' as this is completely subjective, i.e. it varies from user to user. As you can see, you've already received tonnes of different answers, because different things work for different people. In general, all of the ROMs which are regularly updated are great, so try any one out and see what works for you. Some general trends (remember it won't be the same for each ROM and these are based only on my opinion and experience) are:
1. GB is smoother and more stable for every day use than any other Android version
2. ICS is marginally faster than JB but doesn't have all of the features such as Google Now
3. Sense is slow
4. JB>ICS>GB for web browsing and gaming
5. I personally don't see the influence of 'Project Butter' in JB vs ICS.
6. MIUI and CM are about equal in terms of performance, there are advantages and disadvantages to both
7. Battery drain is consistently between 3 and 5 ma. I've had slightly better battery life on GB than on ICS or JB, but once again the difference isn't particularly noticeable. All ROMs should get through a day of usage without issues.

Search before posting
Yo!
I think the whole HD2 section is full with these question!
The search bar on top of the page is not an ad so use it!
There are many rom guides where every rom is posted on it, use it!
Best rom?
What about best report like said above, lol.
And hope anyone close this post.

Any really mate , just have a look threw them

cm or AndroPlus is my favourite

I installed like ICS, mokee or something like that and they are soo buggy and starting to get slow, I mean what did I do wrong I create 1Gb partition on EXT4 and install NativeSD trough 4ExT recovery. Can someone suggest me some stable and fast ROM with Sense 3.5 that doesn't have a lot of bugs or at all that would be cool, thanks.

I'm newb but I think each rom has it own bugs, I using this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1795608

Most Stable Android Yet

Hello Friends,
Been here after a long time gap. SO have no idea about new developments etc..
I am using AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB2.3.7 CM7.2 at the moment and want to change it now. Have been great but off late has started hanging, auto rebooting etc..
Please advise which is the most stable option I can move on to.
Cheers!

As said before no one can advice a rom to any one you need to try for your self and this is the wrong section for this post there is a Q&A section for that don't hesitate to post any question there or better search before posting as it may happen for someone to ask the same thing your asking.

As he said, search before posting and post in the correct sections. The most stable version may differ from phone to phone, but generally it's CM7 or MIUI GB.

This has been my experience exactly. Did not like CM7 versions, but the MIUI GB ROM has been my go-to ROM for nearly 2 years now. I'm back to it now, after trying out various 4.0 and 4.1 ROMs, and I have to say the MIUI one is smoother and doesn't get buggy and laggy (haven't had any problems in at least 2 months now, which is actually quite a long time based on prior experience with other ROMs).

[q] clean rom

Hi i tried search but don't see any rom stocked without bloatware, and with tweaks for battery and performance..any rom like that here? thanks

Unfortunately, these types of threads are not allowed on XDA. And the reason, is what other people like, may not be good for you. Not to mention fans loyal to a specific ROM, like to start flame wars within threads like these.
My advice, is to stick to the normal development forum. There you will find several ROMs from stock with bloatware removed, and tweaked kernels included. I looked and there are several. Civato generally uses a stock based source. Read the OP, then read the last several pages and you'll get an idea of any current issues.
Original Development is where you get the CM, OMNI, PA, PAC, Slim type builds. These are source built.
You will probably need to try a few till you find what suits your needs. Most use Aroma installer so you can remove the bloatware on install (choose what you want)
With that said, this thread is closed.
Cheers!
