Nope, not unless anyone ported them over/upgraded them. Simply Honey 3.9 is a JVP based gingerbread rom, so the framework and app bases are different than froyo. Flashing a stock KB5 froyo theme over a gingerbread rom will guarantee you a trip to Odin.
Check out the themes section though, I'm sure there are a few themes compatible with simply honey that you might like.
Happy Hunting!

How about using metamorph is it possible? if not than thanx for the info I guest I'll wait to see if anyone will port a theme for it.

Porting Darky's Gingerbread Rom (i9000) to the Vibrant

Is it difficult to port a i9000 rom to vibrant? The Darky's Gingerbread Rom looks really awesome!
It would be very great to have this rom ported to the vibrant.
Is there any advice or trick to do that?... Thanks!
check with jelllete or heathen at www.sxeweb.com he has ported darkys rom before

From what I've been told, you can use this ROM on your Vibrant, but don't expect the GPS to work at all.
I am also wondering this as well. I think, I would prefer to see this porting more than the oficial 2.2.
May be we need to bring this up in Dark's rom thread and orginize a donation from vibrant owners. I really feel like we should be able to get the same roms and mods like other sgs variants.

umm i have been running darkyys on my phone for quiet a while and it works
It's froyo w/ a ginger look. I think you should update the title so people don't get confused
Eugene's new kernel allows you to run i9000 ROMs, although I think Darky's ROMs already worked for the Vibrant, just with some bugs. What's the point of using it really, I mean, all the ROMs in their section are not that much different then what we currently have.

[Q] Froyo sense

Is anyone using any 2.2 froyo with sense??? for everyday use...
if yes how is it??
whats the name of that rom?
ChocolateFroyo Rel2 is the ONLY 2.2 sense rom available but doesnt have a working camera...Development stopped due to this in the first week of january
not true ... there are three 2.2 sense roms on xda but chocolatefroyo is the one with most working stuff.
thanks....i think i'll wait for the villian team with there froyo w/sense rom...i hope it would come soon
not true. i have VILLAINROM 12.0 based on froyo 2.2 with sense is the best rom with sense for the hero. and if you flash the "flykernel-12a" you can do overclock and set up the cpu for 710 mhz!!!!
That's based on Android 2.1 'Eclair' not Froyo
chocolate froyo was fixed the bug of the camera????

As stated few post before, all Android OS 2.2 with Sense (including chocolate froyo) all comes with non working camera. It's not a bug, it's source not available for Sense 2.2 ROM developers.
If it's of anyone's interest on using Sense, VR13 is now available for flashing.
It's still based on Android OS 2.1 (Eclair) though, not OS 2.2 (Froyo).
Ok thanks!!!!!!!! One think.. Can you send me the link to find villainrom 13 please???
I finded it!!!! I´m going to flash villainrom13 on my hero thanksssss
I need help.
Hello! Already i WAS flashed the VILLAINROM V13 based on ECLAIR but someone does not like to me. Anyone can to say to his criterion any stable and current ROM for HERO?THANKS!!!!!
PD: IF CAN POSSIBLE WITH & WITHOUT SENSE PLEASEEEE!!!!
You don't like the current VR13 that you had flashed?
May be you grew bored with Eclair (OS2.1).
You may wish to try flash Froyo (OS2.2) ROMs then, such as
Froyd1.73 by VillainRom, CM6.2 Speedmachine V2 by Elelinux, Elelinux's other Froyo ROMs, Erasmux's Floyo1.2, Radug's TastyFroyo, Cronos Froyo 1.8....
Froyo ROMs should be very stable and suitable for daily use.
If you are adventurous enough, you may try flash GingerBread (OS2.3) ROMs, such as Elelinux's 7RC2 Hero v1.4, CyanogenMod 7 Nightly or Cronos' GB1.9
Try Gingerbread ROMs if you like to try new things but these ROMs at the current stage all still have bugs here and there.
Remember, always Nandroid your current ROM (back up, in case you need to restore back).
Have fun

I love Sense, but as it's stuck on 2.1 (for everything to work), I've been trying various other ROMs.
I'd certainly recommend that you use ROM Manager to backup whatever ROM you're on so you can completely restore your previous (working) ROMs with apps etc.
I'd been using FroydVillain Villiainrom 1.7.2 for a while (very stable - 2.2), but started trying the CM7 ROMs (2.3.3) - the best I've come across is Elelinux-7.0.0-RC2-Hero-v1.5 (2011-03-17):

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!

i dont like the stock ROM
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.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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 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

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

whats the best unbranded Galaxy S2 Stock Rom

I really like the stock Rom
Not quite ready to flash a new one yet (unless a good MIUI shows up)
I think the stock rom is very smooth and only really needs root to be a good everyday workable rom, until something outstanding shows up.
I currently have stock branded orange rom (rooted) witha most of the orange and samsung apps frozen with titanium backup.
I am looking for a totally (or near as dammit) stock Rom but without all the branding form orange, and unnecessary apps running in the background so i can get better battery life.
Any ideas on the best one for my purpose.
LeoMar Mod with Ninpho kernel.

Sick of this horrible orange logo on bootup
I'm using the leaked stock XXKG3 together with the Ninphetamine v2.02 Kernel and all is well.
Good battery life, smooth rom with no issues and no restarts, looking forward to the 'official' release.
In the meantime if you want to flash it via Odin here's a link:

I have installed Lite'ning Rom v4.1 XXKG3 - Fast as Lightning, but not happy as I thought and experienced custom ROM's before.
Now, can I install any of the stock (original) SGS2 ROMs or should I find the same one I had in my phone before I flashed custom ROM??
Thanks

I owned the SGS1 when it came out and it desperately needed fixes and alternative ROMs, now with the SGS2 I am a bit surprised because I ended up to the same conclusion as you. I feel no need for custom ROMs. The stock ain't so bad, TouchWiz is decent, it runs stable enough, really have no issues.
So I'm also looking for a clean Samsung stock ROM to get rid of all of my operator junk (useless apps taking resources, startup/shutdown logos, etc). Plus it's bad to have to wait more when a new version comes out as operators take ages to customize them (still on KE6/KEB)
I think I will wait until the first official "clean" Samsung 2.3.4 comes out tho... right now it is pretty good, except for the usual battery problem (that IMHO can only be really fixed with a fat 3000 mAh battery or so)
Well for now AOKP roms are the way to go I think any way, roms like RootBOX and Resurrection Remix along with either Fluxxi, CM9 or Siyah kernel
Should check them out
I use NeatRomLite v1.1 and I'm extremely satisfied!! Both with battery life, speed and smoothness! Try it, you'll love it!!

I Have a Question About Flashing a ROM

I have a Droid X that's rooted but It's on the stock Froyo. I want to flash it to a custom ROM but I don't know how I go about this.
Right Now I can't Decide if I want CM7, Justice, Liberty GB, or Liquid. What's the best one to go too? I care about speed, battery life & awesome features.
Should I upgrade to gingerbread?

I would say go to gingerbread, just because it is the most update version and imo better than Froyo. Most all of the roms have great speed, as far a batery life and features tho ehhhh lol 1 of the 2 will have to be compensated by another basically meaning.
For instance, Liquid and CM7 has tons and tons of customization's about anything you would want to customize you can with those roms, yet due to so many customization features more data is on the rom which compensates the battery life.
Liberty doesn't have as many custom features yet the battery life is superior to Liquid and CM7.
So its all a matter of your personal preferences. I am currently on Liquid 3.0 I also have my phone underclocked and I have been on my phone uncharged for 17hrs with 50% battery still left. I love this rom, thinkin about checkin out the new Liberty or the Shuji rom by Mobile Sensei. After a few days and some more reviews by others.
Speaking of amazing battery life Mobile Sensei is the master of that had ICX by Sensei and could easily get 35 hours off the charger with no problem. Yet rom did not have really any custom options. As I said give and take.
As far as flashing a custom rom. You will definitely need Droid 2 Bootstrap by Koush from the market I think its 2.99, so you can go ahead and download that now. Also as far as flashing a rom I would suggest you visit droidmodderx.com or visit his youtube (just search droidmodderx). This guy Shane is amazing and can show you better than I can tell you how to load a rom. This guy does actual tutorials on how to load a custom rom. So definitely definitely visit one of his sites and you will be good to go (you can download roms from his website as well). You can actually go step by step on your phone loading the rom while you are watching the tutorial on your computer. Decreases the probability of errors.
Hope this helps guy.
Thanks Alot! I'll check out his site & comeback with an update. You helped alot.

Good post with good info!
I just want to add that the d2 bootstrapper is available to download somewhere on the forums, so make sure you take a look around. I downloaded it from here when first flashing CM7.
Also, most if not all of your questions have already been answered somewhere, so check the stickies, and use the search. If you cant find anything close to an answer you need, feel free to ask!

No problem man. Definitely keep us posted on how it goes for you.
I flashed it to .602 GB to move up to the recent roms but I like it how it is right now. I was wondering can I put t-mobile theme engine without CM7?
I went from GB back down to Froyo and put Darkslide on my DX.

Not sure if I'm understanding your question. But if a theme is built specifically for whatever type of rom you are on the yeah it shouldn't be a problem. If you are running a a Shuji rom i doubt that a theme for the CM7 rom would work on it.
Ok Cyanogenmod 7 has a T-mobile theme engine built in the rom. I was asking is there a way I can install that T-mobile theme engine onto the stock GB .602 rom?

I'm not sure about the Tmobile theme engine, but, in my opinion, MIUI has a FAR superior themeing system.
MIUI's theme manager offers control of just about every themeing aspect of the device.

I think I might have to flash over to that, I flash to the Liquid Smooth 3.0 rom & my dailer force close as soon as my phone boots up, whenever i receive a call or try to dail out.. It's the only problem I'm having with this ROM
