I got my nexus s 4g with the same intention I've had with all my androids..root,flash custom rom,custom kernel, n have perfection on my phone. Well how surprised do u think i was when i got the phone n fell in love with the stock rom. Holy crap is the stock rom basically flawless...lol

Same here bro, same here!
Same, I don't see too much to complain about on stock. It's light, responsive and fairly stable. I'll root it eventually of course though. I'm sure there are too many under-the-hood options that I'll be dying without before long
My only complaint seems to be random data drop outs. Is that a known issue or wtf is going on lol

Same thing for me. Have had the phone since a few days after release and no real urge to root or do anything else.

Nexus s 4g is plagued with all sorts of data issues. Its what the alleged ota is suppose to fix. As far as the stock rom, I almost always run stock with a matrix kernel. I like bln amd voodoo color.

I've been running EL30 all day and just realized how smooth the scroll is and of amazing the multitasking is. Went is it that stock roms do multitasking so much better than custom roms? Everyone should go stock for at least one day to see what I mean. Again.. Just throwing it out there.
I've been running stock EL30 since we got the google link. I'm liking it so far. Just need the keyboard lag fix. I think they did fix the GPS though, it goes fast in google maps and its accurate. And I like the none iOS touchwiz.

They changed a couple of the icons and removed the colored squares from the icons when you are in the app drawer.

It really is much better, but it dropped one of the e's in "needed". I hadn't noticed the background thing because I use ADW EX with a theme. It seems fine stock, but I'd love to underclock again so I might just root for that.

Yes, I noticed battery life is great! Also, I think the smoothness is coming from the rom being odexed originally from sprint. We must all remember that the odex codes are optimized for our devices. That's why deodexed roms are never as smooth. Might be slight quicker but awful multitasking. But personaly, ive never seen a performance boost from going deodex.

De-odexing isn't supposed to give ya performance boost, it allows you to theme your phone.
BEER!
Yup, but alot of members here state that the roms under deodex run snappier. In which I disagree.
Just buggin out, me an my eye balls.
Check out the thread in the development section entitled "[tweak][CM7] odex cyanogenmod 7.2 flashable zip" by zman for more info on the subject
edit: also, listening to certain people on this forum can provide bad advice, on occasion always research, for your own (phone) safety
BEER!
CM9, wasn't for me, so I'm currently using CM7-which I love. BUT, the nightlies still haven't fixed the volume whenever you make outgoing calls and I don't like the Camera/video recorder. Since those two things haven't been fixed (And its driving me crazy) I was wondering what you guys think is a very good EL30 Rom? I'm thinking about switching to one but I don't want to sacrifice battery life and how snappy CM7 is. Just interested in seeing what you guys recommend that I should try.
There is only like 3. Just try them all and see what is best for YOU. Each phone and user is different.

You know its not like this is the evo where there's like 200 different sense 3.0 or 2.1 or 1.0+3.0 or 2.1+3.0 we just have TouchWiz Cyanogenmod and Miui not a lot to choose from
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Im still trying to figure out what else I can do to my epic...i got cm9 alpha 4 on it....but besides that idk where else to go..
Before I switched over to CM9, I was on Clean GB. Before that, it was SleeperROM, but I remember finding something that I didn't like too much. I'm not putting it down or anything. Its just that one of my apps wasn't working or the camera. I forgot exactly what it was, but they're both good. I can't say about the other one. I liked Clean GB a lot. Give it a try.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
tried CM7, tried MIUI (had to add a launcher becuase it was driving me crazy without one...lol) and tried CleanGB...
all very nice and unique in their own ways...
in the end, went back to Legendary Rom v2.2, after converting it from BML to MTD format....
the creators have made the install of all the roms idiot proof, it's fun to just backup/wipe as many times as you want and try them all out
SleeperRom or CleanGB are both great Roms.
And Marcusant's v4 will be out soon too. It is in beta now.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I'm using cleangb and really like it. But I noticed that even stock el30 will do just we fine. No more ciq so its a good rom really. Bonus is, everything works.
Thanks for all of the replies! I'm trying CleanGB and the battery life is....ok. I guess I got spoiled with CM7 battery. I'm just glad everything works....Will give Marcusant's new one a try once released. May even try SleeperRom. Anybody on Thunderhawk right now?

To keep things closer to your dad's experience there's FishmanMod which is an update to a very popular Bionix -v 1.3.1 Rom. It will fly compared to stock but everything works and it won't be totally unfamiliar to the dad.

be careful, the GS4g and Vibrant may look the same, but their flashing procedures are a bit different. read up and then do it.
Adding on to xriderx66, use this guide if you need a reference when backing up & flashing a custom rom to your dads phone... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
Since he's already rooted start from: "OKAY, I HAVE ROOT - NOW WHAT? BACKUP!!!"
If your dad is happy with the stock ROM (with the exception of the speed) then I would definitely suggest going with something like the fishman mod that is based on the stock 2.2 ROM. That'll make sure he still has all the stock apps and such. I used Bionix for a LONG time and was always really happy with it.
I'm gonna show him bionix and see what he says

I suggest showing him Fish's version of Bionix for the mere reason that Fishman is supporting it daily, while Team Whiskey is no longer.
