Ryyu's ROM for me - Galaxy S I9000 General

Just like to share something with all you flashers out there. Spent the last few weeks flashing between various roms and getting very frustrated.
So I spent today (between the men's singles final) and flashed all of the following:
GingerReal-V6.4
Simply Honey 3.9
CriskeloRom GINGERBREAD v7.5
Juwe Smart Edition v5.0
various F1 GS2 and JVP
Tweaky Vanilla AOSP and Revolution
(haven't tried darky since 9.3 I think)
Admittedly this is not scientific...clearly too early to comment on a number of levels such as battery drain, but I found a little gem that I haven't heard much spoken about....its RYYU's EDB.
It really is the way I like it....SG2 look and feel....very close to stock.....not overworked graphics....fast...smooth....no obvious bugs. It is VERY elegant.
The Nexus S status bar icon colours are slightly dodgy and there is no choice of lock screen - just the SG2, otherwise, early days, but it is as good as I've tried and deserves a lot more recognition

I do....Its the hyperlink in my signature

well m not agree with u........m also flash all rom.......but one rom which i remove after 20 min of flashing is Ryy;s coz i is not stable from any way......
in my opinion the best avalible rom on XDA i tried is
1:- Juwes 5.0
2:- F1 GS2 V9
3:- Ginger Real
4:- Darky
so i advise any one to try juwes the most stable and fastest rom and the person know how to make a rom and it awesome with Semaphore kernal....i m lovin it

mate I've been on all of those roms. Indeed Juwe v4.3.1 and v5.0 for weeks and I do love them - Juwe is excellent. F1 GS2 loses the ability to swap between ext4 and RFS, Ginger real graphics are just too much for me.
Just for your information Ryyu rom has semaphore kernel too....and its as stable as anything so I'm sorry but I just don't agree with you...but of course this is all very subjective isn't it?
I'd just like to see more people try this rom as it doesn't appear to get the publicity of some others which is a shame

I completely agree with you. I've tried all tje roms you mention except simply honey and again agree that Juwe's v5.0 was the best and the most stable. But Ryyu's rom is also stable and what is more, it is fast, really fast. Menu openings, software installations, GPS connection, all actions are very fast compared to other roms. So if someone has a problem with it, there must be a problem with flashing, indeed it is very simple, check the process first.

Signatures are not vissible in tapatalk. I found it, thanks.

Best gingerbread custom rom in my opinion!!(11/5/2011)

After flashing several custom roms like darkky,goatrip,insanity,simple honey etc. i feel juwe's rom to be the fastest and gives me good battery life. i'm not saying that the other roms are poor, just that juwe's rom is really good(my opinion). check it out and lemme know what u think!!.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964672
Thanks to all the developers who have made sgs into a super phone.!!
While I agree that Juwe's ROM is very good, I went on to try other ones for a very simple (and subjective) reason: the theme.
Beauty always lies in the eye of the beholder so this is actually not an argument against Juwe's ROM but rather a statement of a subjective fact.
Currently I have found my thrill with Tweaky ROM v3.1 and it looks like it will stay on my phone for quite a while.
I used doc roms for a while and loved it strongly : fast, stable and personalized.
Then i tried CyanogenMod 7... and now I can't imagine going back to a Sammy based rom. Try it if you dare, you will be surprised!
BTW I have yet to try MIUI which is CM7 based...

I agree very, very nice rom. But Darky's rom 10 and Goatrip 1.9 are up there as well. I like how Goatrip has Goa tool to add and remve stuff. This is a great feature.
Problem with Darky is that's an RC and the extreme version that's final is still an Eclair...
i love darky's tho, but for now i'm using Juwe's as well.

I'm running the latest MIUI and it's brilliant. It's like a whole new phone. All the benefits of CM7 AOSP, with an added touch of elegant and professional UI design and convenience. Think... iOS, but with all the good stuff from Android mixed in. It's beautiful! I highly recommend it.
It's also updated very frequently, so any bugs are quickly ironed out, as well as new features being added every Friday. It's based of CM7, which is based off of AOSP, rather than Samsung, so they update to the latest Android release very quickly, for all the new goodies straight from Google. Currently at 2.3.4.
miui has some features that dont work that efficiently as of yet.. but having said that i love the miui music player!!
1. Darky is always the fastests for me.
2. Crinkelo, i flashed it every version. In my opinion its a little bit slower.
I dont know maybe because of its theme.
3. Goatrip, only Rom fc for me.
4. Andromedia, very beautiful Rom.
5. Sweet honey. Fine.
6. Wizrom 2. I liked very much. I could not flash version 3 though.
7. F1 Rom is also very good rom.
8. The best beautiful themed rom is Poppuri. Check it, you wont search for any other theme.

I don't understand what you're saying by Darky's ROM is Eclair? That's 2.1.
Darky 9.5 Extreme is Froyo and I found it to be pretty good, stable too.
(I think that the final gingerbread 2.3.3 hasn't come out yet so all the roms are RCs ?...)
I've tried Juwe's 4.1 before and it was good. Problem is I'm still hunting around so I'm finding it difficult to stick with one rom for a long period.

Oh, you mean that ROM in which *** CAMERA *** does not work, *** FM RADIO *** does not work, *** COMPASS *** does not work and things like that?
No, thanks, a ROM has to be feature complete before trying to add speed or bling-bling. I'm not going to use a ROM that cannot use all the hardware in my phone.
Darky released v10 final.
I've tried a few roms (Ultimate, Darky, Doc, etc.) but stayed with Doc's the longest. When JVK came out, it took a while for the the ROM makers to come out with a bug free release so I tried Ramad's deodexed stock rom. I was quite happy with it. And so, I haven't touched a custom rom since. Currently, I'm on a deodexed JVH (courtesy of Ramad) with Nick502's TW4/SGS2 mod (I love the new email app). I've even gone back to using the ugly glass lockscreen of Samsung because of the Music Player widget. I haven't really noticed much difference in performance between the custom ROMS I've tried and a plain deodexed one, although, I felt the earlier Darky releases (2.2 froyo) were quite bloated. Admittedly, besides some of the stock apps, I've installed maybe 15-20 other apps from the market.... so that may go some way to explaining why performance was mostly similar.

Similar story here, also used CM7, the best, except for the known issues, until it started crashing on me...
Now I am happy with standard JVH + CF-Root...
darky's stay the best so far to me,I just can't figure out what will come out with a honeycomb darky

I have only trid the Darky 10 RC5 and 6, but once again switched due to the theming. Goa is still on my "To Try"-list, but it looks very promising and I will probably give it a whirl if Tweaky starts to get too boring.

OK. I see in the CM7 site that they have added more functionality in the last few days. Front camera, 720p recording, compass... Once they add FM radio I'll consider looking at it.

I have gone from Juwe's 4.2 to Tweaky Rom JVH v2 and battery life (18hours +) has improved so much while keeping it running fast and smooth and I love the TW4 on Tweaky's Rom too! I have used Fuguroot and I am on Voodoo recovery, which incidentally has improved battery life in my case!
I confirm CM7 is best costume.
But, it's for the users that are a little experience (cus that's in beta her)
BTW, I recommended that ron at less for one day (test it, maybe you'll changed you idea )

ROM Reviews and Discussion

Hi guys,
Still on stock ROM, but looking to flash a new one really soon - looked through both Original and Development threads and haven't been very confident so far. Why?
The most popular ones seem to be Lightening and VillainROM, but I haven't found any comprehensive reviews of their battery life and performance - VillainROM doesn't have screenshots either. Mostly the posts on their threads are questions or debugging or pointing out bugs, so its hard to get a proper gauge.
So what are your thoughts on the ROMs so far? Looking for the usual - good battery, stability, performance. I don't care much for the blue of Lightening but as long as it works, it works. What makes it different from Villain?
Also appreciate any other ROMs that may be good to install!
Thanks!
One of the best and smoothest ROMs I've tried has been CyanogenMod 7. Its stable (even in the 7.1 RC), fast, good battery life and reliable. Check it out, its a definite favorite in my book
Sent from my Droid 1 CM7.1.0 RC1
So far I've only tested VillainROM. I'm waiting for a more stable CM7 to try it out, but until then VR seems to be okay. To be honest there's nothing special about it. Battery life is acceptable, it's close to a stock rom, it doesn't have bugs, it has Nimpo kernel, vrtweaks which let you install some mods more easily, and the devs are skilled and helpful. That's enough for me

Which one of this roms has BLN already activated?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I've now used villain, darkys, adam's aosp, CM7 and MIUI.
All great roms. Villain and darky are both quite close too stock TW. AdamG AOSP is as about as close to androidstock as you can get-which is clean and simple. CM7 is the ultimate ROM for the tweaker and hacker and its also v fast.
MIUI is the most visually different rom. It looks completely different and has some great visual cues. Battery life its also v good on the latest build (.29 beta 32). Its the one I'm using at the moment, but I switch between it and CM7 on occasion.
you won't go wrong with any and although they aren't fully stable (the non TW ones). I've never had any stability issues with them. Just be prepared to not have an fm radio or full bluetooth audio...
My 2 cents, hope it helps!

P.s. Not sure about lightening but one of the earlier builds of villain gave me the best battery life ever on this phone. I think it was 1.4, but this was about a month ago..

There are quite a few, VillainROM is included. You can also flash a BLN compatible kernel to make BLN work.
Thanks, I may want to stick close to TW-based ROMs for the time being until CM7 is stable and GS2-friendly then I've done MIUI before, its a fantastic ROM for older phones, but of course there's problems with translations sometimes and the UI gets old/too iphone after a while.
currently on lightening 2.2 with nimphetamine 2.04 kernal. More than happy with my battery. I get more than a days use out of it quite easily, battery loss is about 1% an hour in standby and the rom itself is very stable. Ive never had a force close, reboot or anything. Im using the steel blue theme too as i like the look of the icons more.
Ive no plans to try any other roms until a fully released cynagen rom is available which i will try, just to see what the fuss is about more than anything.
any ideas how close we are to a stable cm7 release?

I would also like to know.
A VillainROM user here along with ninphetamine kernel I find this the best combination, battery life is awesome and the devs are useful. It's smooth fast and just well top notch.
I've tried many roms but always come back to VR. The best thing to do is try them and find one for your own liking there are dozens to choose from now. In the future I'll try CM7 as I used to run that on my DHD but as of now I'm happy with the TW roms.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Batista70 ROM w/ Ninpo's 2.0.5 kernel here, so far so good. Runs smooth and quite battery-friendly.
I've used Lite'ning also but somehow the I've run into some battery drain issues with it before. Eye'ing CM7 once it gets a stable release.
The latest CM7 nightly, 13, is running really well, it all seems just as it was on my Desire so far, no crashes, just a lockscreen hang every now and again.
Don't know about the Bluetooth audio as I prefer a wired headset.

I've had this thread subscribed since the beginning and today I just desided to share my experience with CM

Post what rom you're on and the reason for it!

I noticed many people who keep asking which rom is the best for battery life, etc....I'm sure that I am not alone in this, when I say that its really annoying. So to solve that problem. I've created this thread :]
I am really sorry for not including many other roms. I only picked on the roms which were at the top 2 pages in the original android dev and the android dev.
Again, I'm really sorry, but as I told another person, you are still more than welcome to talk about it and tell us why you chose that rom
Instructions:
1. Post your rom name.
2. Post which kernel you are using.
3. Why you like it
Optional:
1. What theme you are using.
2. Case
I'll start the thread off:
I'm using CheckROM RevoHD™ V6.
I am using the SpeedMod SGS2 [K2-21 kernel.
I like this rom because of the stability and the battery life. I also really love the kitchen which gives you the endless amount of flexibility to customize your rom the way you want to!
I am using the Ice Cream Sandwich Domination 2.0.3 Godlike!
I am using the SUPERGETS case which I purchased from AmazonUK for £1.70.
PS: Anybody who has a problem with this thread being here can leave right now. I never asked to click on this thread, did I now? (This message is to the people who created the "useless" tags..)
Why don't you have stock rom option?
I'm using stock XXKH3 because it does not restart my phone when on wifi (unlike KL1, KL3, haven't had time and patience to try others). It's stable ant that's what I need.
For kernel, I chose Syah v2.6.12 because of undervolting/underclocking abilities and I run [email protected] UV with battery (2000MAh) lasting for 4 days (and nights) with some light usage.
On top of that I've got GoLauncher for easier customization.

IMO CheckRom is quite simply the best all round ROM for this phone, it is exceptionally smooth and fast with zero bugs (that i have found anyway) and coupled with Speedmod kernel offers superb battery life, plus the Kitchen Pro allows you to customize your ROM the way you want, ive been using CheckRom since it's inception and i cant see me using anything else barring ICS.
You haven't included Rebel ROM in the poll list.
Using Rebel ROM with Siyah Kernel because of its battery life and the SE Launcher.
Hands down has to be Checkrom v6. Using NEAK kernel and both are match made in heaven. Best rom on GB. Regarding ICS. I have to say cm9 will be my next rom once that is stable. But knowing what Leo and GC will do once they get their hands on the official ICS stuff now that will be one hard choice to make..Hopefully the dualboot project might come to effect by then
Ps what Jonny said above i could not have put it any better..Well said mate

Sorry if I may come off sounding rude or anything. But is dual booting really that useful? I mean sure you can boot into miui and cm9 or cm7. But is it really that important? Or is it just a feature that you would like to have because it sounds and looks cool?
Would really appreciate if you could shed some light on this subject!
Thank you and have a good day.
1. Checkrom V6
2. CF Root LA4
3. Best balance of battery life and performance, sure other kernels can give better results on the battery side but I've got a 2000mah battery and charge nightly. Just everything works well with stock kernel. Will try out RedPill over the weekend.

Oh yeah I can't wait for ICS either ^^ But I heard some rumours that Ice cream sandwich for the gs2 will come out March 1st. Is this true or is this just a rumour?
Thanks.
Samsung has comfirmed that it will come out on Q1, and Miui v4 are coming on 29 Feb so people are rumoring that it will come on 1st March.
If ICS will come out I will probably use the original one since I have a big problem with touchwiz, it hurt my eyes
hi
using- krinyo xwla4 slimrom + phenomenal 4.0 extreme.
why because i tried many roms and this gives no fc is smooth fast and the kernel is for battery life. developer support this rom and is very helpful. if u go to his threa u can see that are not 100000 post in wich many user complain about errors or other things. i think u dont need many words just try it and u will be amazed.
and put this rom in poll too.
currently using stock LPH with its own kernel, the only thing i modified is the modem which is LP6
after i tried ICS i couldnt go back to GB so with my current setup im getting awesome battery life, no fcs so im pretty happy with it

Well in a perfect world for me it would be nice to have access to two roms that i enjoy instead of restoring and backing up and reflashing. As you say it is a feature that sounds and looks cool but i am pretty sure we shall not see the light off. Yeah it might be possible and i think few devs have already tried it but it really has not taken off. It was more of a figure of speech i used it mate. Like i said it would of been great to use both ICS checkrom and cm9 as dualboot but that is a if and but...
So like i said best rom for me at the moment is checkrom as you can see from my sig. hope this clarifies a bit more
Checkrom v6
Darkknight 2.5.2
I flash a new firmware every 2nd day but I always go back to Checkrom and Darkknight because Checkrom is amazing with its kitchen etc and all other kernels like siyah, neak or redpill drain my battery in about 6-10 hours while on Darkknight I can use the handy for about 24 hours. Same usage. Maybe those devs could take a look at what Darkknight does right.... But I think it's really frustrating to be excited to flash a new kernel which praises "best battery" and after some hours your phone turns off.....

[Q] original or modified rom????

is better froyo 2.2 rom original or modified ROM is here?.
encuenta having all respects.
stability.
battery life.
speed.
performance with installed applications.
not crash all the time
customization.
etc.
and recommendations of the best rom for my Samsung T595 vibrant.
Hello there. if you have a vibrant it is a t959. I dont use froyo anymore since we have very good choices on gingerbread ann ICS. Iam on Skankwich CM9 Kang...very nice. You can find good choices if you search. Im my opinion a custom rom is better. You need to find out by yourself wich one you like and works better according to your needs. How? ...flashing!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
I wouldn't run ICS if you don't feel like tinkering with your ROM. The GPS is inconsistent, and there will be little bugs every now and again as the developers continue to refine the base builds that will require you to keep an eye on the ROM you flashed for updates.
None of the bugs I found in ICS are real show stoppers depending on what you expect out of your phone (besides that encryption unsuccessful problem which is a big issue), but there were enough that I only flash ICS every month or so just to see how things are. I always come back to Froyo just for the sake of everything working.
Moped Ryder's EZ_Ryder/Slim_Ryder are good Froyo builds, but I, personally, always fall back to either Bionix-V 1.3.1 or Fishman's Bionix-V Mod with the DragonModz or Overstock kernel. That combo with the Holo launcher fits my needs just right.
Hey, if you're going for stability, battery life, speed, and performance...then a custom rom from the development is certainly better than stock froyo in my opinion. And..luckily enough, we have some great developers in the froyo department at the moment. I've tried a lot of Fish's builds and they are all awesome...but I had some of the best battery life and such on his updated Deranged rom

I was getting like 2 days worth of life while I was on that, and it was buttery smooth lol
But really, anything by Fish or Moped is definitely worth looking into my friend.

Hello there. if you have a vibrant it is a t959. I dont use froyo anymore since we have very good choices on gingerbread ann ICS. Iam on Skankwich CM9 Kang...very nice. You can find good choices if you search. Im my opinion a custom rom is better. You need to find out by yourself wich one you like and works better according to your needs. How? ...flashing!!

Froyo / GB is all I use for now. Dont forget the issues that come along with ICS and CM7 / 9.
1. A lot don't have working 911 (e911?) or inconsistant 911 with each build.
2. ICS from my knowledge still has the Encryption Unsuccessful bug.
3. For me at least gps works best on Froyo.
4. Possible mute/unmute bug (rare)
Those two are the deal breakers for me. Im a father of 3 so I have to have a working phone with 911 at all times.
btw - thanks for good word guys
If you find any old Froyo / GB rom and would like me (or Fishman) to update it to current status just ask.
If you want to try out Stock Froyo Id suggest the KB5 stock ROM I posted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674519
Its stock with lockscreens and a power menu added.

Sick of every 2 days buggy custom rom updates

I'm really tired of trying the buggy custom ROMs on my Arc S, anymore. Every few days, the devs(many of them "devs") release a new ver. with more bugs. Even in Aroma?! Tried almost every ROM and everytime there are bugs. And if, by mistake, there aren`t, the dev decide's to make an update and spoil the hole thing. And sometimes the update is just visual, but other bugs appear. And the bugs are so common in most of the roms, that I think all the devs just visually customise the same buggy rom.
Havin in mind the above, I want a stock rom, with only improvement - no lag in phone app and camera, quickpanel settings with % battery, may be a camera mod, for better pics and AOSP look, and no stupid rom updates that bring bugs. Want a rom for the rest of my phone's life.
Is there a solution for me, or I'm just dreaming
solution - unpack ftf and do it on your own, it's not that hard given the time spent posting this thread..
Hmm I think you are better off to stock fw. And I think you dont deserve the hard works they put on to this for free

This is why it pays to learn, then you can mod your own ROM to your own taste.

Only real answer. And I guess I'll do it myself. Better than a 13 year old, who cries for donation. The real Devs were on samdroid once upon a time...

exactly my thoughts
But Remix ICS ROM is a good rom too, I know it was full of mistakes in aroma installer, but the rom performance is great, only need to remove and add few stuff and is a great rom
At the beginning I thought that jader was another "ChaozFirZen" """developer""" but after trying his ROM I was surprised how fast his rom is, also stable, way better than many ICS roms, he deserves 5 stars on his thread
