Gingerbread...
Refined the user interface, improved the soft keyboard and copy/paste features, and added support for NFC....
Awsome. Would you recomend swapping from froyo to gingerbread? And if so are there any recomended roms to use?

Froyo now is faster on our Hero...
But you can try Cronos Ginger is quite fast and frequently update
you can also give a try to Elelinux :

I will second that i have found Cronos Ginger to be the fastest and most stable out and i have tried CyanogenMod 7 but it just didn't feel as clean.
Hello,
i am sorry if this is Spam. Personally, i have a X10, my GF has a X8 running the Stock 2.1 ROM from SE. She is very unhappy with the Stock ROM, because it lags and so on.
Is there a custom rom with Android 2.1/2.2/2.3 which is stable, fast (faster than stock) and can use all features of the X8 (hw-camera e.g.)
Any recommendations ?

MiniCM has FM, Camera, Videocam... and it is stable
there is 2.3 roms too but they do not have FM and only VGA camera.
the same as above, i recommend using the latest miniCM, as its the most stable custom ROM right now, with most working features
I think BehradGH MTL Rom Series (based on 2.1.1) is good too
i´m using racht´s floyo 0,15 and its almost bugless.
minicm stable atm
floyo 0.15 hackdroid from ratch work,almost everything,less reboot after installed apps but after reboot its working nice
waiting for stable cm7 2.3.3 j's / ratch's

I had miniCM and now 2.3.3 v007 from jerpelea and I think 007 is more stable than miniCM but it has not so much features like fm radio and more working games.
Actually i think that the best 2.2 rom is minicm, but racht is working on 2.3 and it's promising..

I was using v006 and launcherpro was awfuly laggy.
Thanks for your recommandations. I'll give minicm a try
And i'll wait for rachts 2.3.3 or j's (running on my x10)
Sent from my X10 using XDA Premium App
For now miniCM has most number of working things. Now I'm using it (I need fm and cam). But I hope soon Racht and Jerpelea will make full working 2.3.3 for us
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
In my opinion for now the most stable and with almost all fetures working is MiniCM
Hey folks. newbie here. Been an Android user for around three month, and after the news that S.E will not be updating the X8 beyond 2.1 i've decided to take the plunge and root. However I am on a pay monthly contract so my question is, is it safe to root and install a custom rom and still use my providers services eg: MMS, SMS, 3G. Probably a silly question but i'm new to all this..
Cheers folks
Hi, is miniCM this one?
I'm trying that one but I don't like the cyan colored icons in the status bar, better white or colored like the Floyo ones... there is a way to change icons or only the color?
you can choose other theme

That's what you need, there's a floyo theme available.
i'd go with miniCM being stable, although at the moment im using j's 2.3.3 as i dont use fm radio and VGA camera is good enough for me

Same here with Racht's CM7-RC3... I replaced LP with ADW eventhough it's got less features... The screen seemed less responsive. Just seemed so... I also noticed battery drain in CM7 RC3 when I only had GPS on for a couple of mins. Battery kept on draining after that but i didnt try it again to be sure. Quite stable for me. I try to keep SU forgetting root apps and so avoiding crashes.

thanks air surfer for the reply
im using Mini CM RC1 and its really great
floyo 0.15 is great too
Minicm rc1. I think its great especially with one finger pinch zoom and overclock modules, and now there's a video camera fix its awesome best rom in my opinion for x8.

Ahmed , the only thing that will bug you in using MiniCM or Floyo is Arabic language support , in the browser Arabic letters are separated and from left to right
I found this after trying Flashed Mini CM and floyo
i'm going to try BehradGH 2.1.1 ROM later ,he says that it have Arabic support http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955467

But this is the same of stock rom.. try this

racht's floyo FTW. imho way better than CMmini, the overall performance is better, especially in games (both 2d&3d) where it's much smoother. plus, it has better theme (ye, i know you can change a theme, but in floyo you just get good one at start), and it's more stable for me.
the only bad thing about floyo is i can't install overclock module on it, i always get a bootloop. but i don't care about OC that much, since it doesn't improve the performance that much, even if benchmarks are showing some great improvement.
+1 to racht's Floyo v.15 in its speed and performance!
but not too stable (for me) also it drains battery a bit faster
in the case of MiniCM its good, couple of reboots (common bug) and feels like 95% complete.
now, the battle in 2.2 is between miniCM and floyo,
(wishing there will be more updates for floyo)
Thank so much first for developt who create custom rom for us..,first time read about a custom roms,iam so interesting and try many custom roms in this forum..,but after try one and other roms..,i feel its nothing special.,why?..there are just changing in font and launcher compare with se stock rom..,and so many app for froyo cant work this custom roms and its decrease we our sofware phone with cant everthing work and no bugs like se stock rom..,sory for say that ..its a fact.

Agreed. Only true roms are racht roms, minicm, and elelinux...
All others are just themed crap.

That's true as far as android 2.2 is concerned. For android 2.3 we have racht, jepelea, owain and the lates miniCM7 port, which is, to say, not quite ready for daily use yet
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!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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.

there is a battery drain bug .. may be fixed in 2.3.4 not sue
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
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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
