[Q] any preferred Custom ROM?

hi there!
yesterday I rooted my bro's Legend(stock 1.31) with the r4-legend-root pack and then I loaded MoDaCo's cROM. when he asked me to setup the A2SD, I made a second ext2 part., but then after some reboot the apps disappeared and then showed up again, and then almost all of them lost. so I loaded the root ROM again, which randomly reboots(dunno why).
so I ask you to prefer a GOOD, FAST, SLIM ROM with Sense, and probably a non-app-killer-A2SD.
thanks in advance, Adolf(and my bro too )

This is the best custom rom at the moment... (In my opinion)

Azure .. Froyo (Android 2.2)

Thanks, this looks good, but there is no Sense(that's a pity) ):

I think it will be using any *beta* Froyo modified ROM's. Azure 6 was giving me some problems with YouTube video uploads. I switched back to SweetVanilla RLS 3 (EClair 2.1) and I didn't have any issues. Azure is not slim by any means.

You can only get the SenseUI if you use the official ROM(s) by HTC.

Hi all,
This is the discussion thread of our Galaxy 3 ROMs. Including Froyo, Gingerbread & ICS. Ups & Downs in every ROM, Suggestions to the Dev, Problems facing & their solutions etc.
Your opinion counts which will help in evolution of custom ROMs. Of course, It all depends on your personal preferences. But still...
Some ROMs notable alphabetically...
Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe)
Dutchmods
ICS for G3
Kyora ROM
Kyrillos ROM
Purumod ROM
Sekhy ROM
Vivek's ROM
A Note: Please do not hurt personally anybody.
Thanks in advance,
Sekhar

Thanks, thread stuck.. maybe an idea to list the roms as well..

I like the ICS UI better than any laucher ones

For GB : CM7 is the best
For Froyo (JPU) : Kyorarom 5.2 with G3Mod 2.3 kernel non-oc (flash manually the kernel) -> very stable, ultra fast, and, for my dad, the most battery efficient Rom (5-6 days per charge and 1 week if you use nothing).

Im a freshman in flashing roms, im doing this for about 2 months now. And i can say that
Cynogenmod Port is the best for our Galaxy 3, of course Kyrillos Rom based on CM7-A7 will stand next to the first one. Although on Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe) we dont have full bluetooth function and camera is black/white, but its very stable.

Hmmm..Tough Question!
I have tried Kyorarom and Kyrillos and I find Kyrillos v9.5 better than Kyorarom 0.5.2,both in case of battery backup and performance Kyrillos exceeds Kyorarom.
Kyorarom needs to be refined a little and everything will be fine, coz am having lag problems on it.
Still got to try Sekhy's and DutchMod. I am having download problems as of now so will try both the ROMs and report soon.

Have tried and did not pass Boot Loop in the following ROMs
1. Kyora ROM
2. Kyrillos ROM
Used Vivek's ROM for 2 days and it was fantastic, but the data usage while roaming drained me completely..but one of the best for G3.
Currently use CM but CM needs to be tweaked continuously for better battery and results. The features that CM 7.1 has is great. All working fine
Have tried CM 6.2 too and was happy.
The only ROM to beat CM on features is WIUI, but WIUI does not support G3 currently
Hope this helps!

Well, I have tried plenty of ROMs for G3 (from the latest e.g. Kyorarom v0.5.2, Kyrillos 9.5, CM 6.2...) but all of them beats CM 7.1 modded by Kyrillos - GWK74.
It´s fast as hell, stable, pretty good battery backup (3 days of moderate usage).
The only thing I miss are video codecs for avi format, which were in froyo ROMs.
And another suggestion it would be great if Fugumod Ultra kernel would support Gingerbread ROMs...don´t know if it´s possible, but it´s performance in froyo is epic

Tried many ROMs but i find the Kyrillos version of cm7 the best....

On a serious note, i think the stock JPU ROM is insanely smooth and fast I'm using it right now and app opening times, scrolling etc. are really fast and smooth. Battery backup is also awesome compared to Kyrillos' ROM V 9.5 where the battery lasted 1 day of heavy usage then 1 day of hardly any usage because i was scared to waste the battery half the way through the day in case i got any important phone calls.

In my Opinion the cm7 port is the best not only cause you can change your design via cm7 but also performance and battery is very good here, had kyrollos before but yeah i wanted something new and with cm7 port i have much mor fun with my phone

ICS
As long as you don't need bluetooth and camera badly, i actually think ICS is pretty amazing. It's good enough for daily use now at least, almost at CM7 level.

My opinion =
For daily usage: Stock rom (I recommend XXJPS or DDJP4)
Need for speed? : Kyorarom , Kyrillos' rom
Classic rom : Vivek's rom or Purumod
For showing off: CM7, ICS, AOSP original ginger port by marcel

Hi Sekhar,
Could you add the link to each of these ROM threads - and have a comparison [a fair one] for the benefit of the community?
I've not tried Purumod, Sekhy etc..
And what is the funda is installing a ROM from earlier version?
For Instance, Your ROm suggests that the earlier version be installed first..I'm foxed here

Sekhys ROM
Sekhys ROM for Gb is fantastic. Nice user experience and great display for normal use.
But Videos are Laggy and other than mp4 formats dont play..
Bloatware IMO is avast and Battery XL Both can be removed by force closing the apps and uninstalling them in applications

Like Kyrillos' v9.5 most. Of course I didn't like battery life with 'default' g3mod kernels especially when I was using 2g/3g internet connection so I flashed Astrum v 1.0 from moikop and now everything works like a charm ;-)

Same here, hope K 10. will get rid of battery drain prob.

...tried Kyrillos' 10 Beta 1 over the weekend and performance and battery drain is really ok.
of course there are still some probs as the black/white preview when taking pictures with camera and didn't get bluetooth connection to send/receive some files; but as pictures are taken in colour (seen when accessed on sdcard) and files can also send by wireless (f.e. airdroid) or usb connection (cable) i can live with it. also having data2sd with link2sd (s2e didn't work properly for me; corrupted my sdcard)
perhaps i'll flash K 10 beta2 end of next week?!

none of you tryed DM? I like to hear some feedback for improvements

[Q] Wht is the best rom to update?

Hey
I still have Froyo on my U8800 and I want to update to a flawless rom
wht shall I choose
official GB
oxygen
Aurora
....etc

It deppends of what do you want to do with your phone.
Install all the tree and make your choice
Sent from my Huawei Ideos X5 using xda premium

well I want...
improved functions
radio
longer battery life
no essential fails (like no haptic feedback or missing wifi ..etc like the official GB)
play games that froyo can't

i think you must try it one by one.

I would choose a .32 kernel based ROM, as they are still more stable at the moment. Oxygen by dzo would be my first choice

Which rom is stable and less bug?
i am newbie..

I Have Tried Lots Of ROM. I Can Say Best ROM It CM7 Till Now.

The first thing I did when I bought my phone summer last year, was root it and install a custom rom. Didn't even boot it to look at the stock set up first!
First rom I installed was Oxygen, and I have it say it worked great. Stable, fast, good battery life, and never had any problems.
Last month I decided I needed a change, not because there was anything wrong with Oxygen, but just because once in a while I like to play around with different roms.
Tried Aurora, and have to say it's great. Not quite as speedy as Oxygen and battery doesn't last as long, but pretty and damn stable, haven't had a crash yet.
Tried MIUI one afternoon, but not to my liking, too far from the Android experience imo.
Can't go wrong with either Oxygen or Aurora, depending on what you're looking for.

Best Custom ROM for Galaxy Y GT-S5360

Hey guys,
I am currently running CyanogenMod-7-20140309-UNOFFICIAL-totoroon my mother's Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and first this to be my backup phone but now I want it to replace as a regular phone. I want to know what is the latest and most stable ROM available for it. I am computer science student and would like to start learning about android ROMs and roots so would like to have some help and learning material in that area too. I would be really grateful for any kind of help.

Hyperion X, ACEROM, and CM9.1 are the best ones currently out there.
Hyperion X gives perfect match between speed, stock gingerbread feel and interface and is most popular.
ACERom is a bit laggy, but gves all the latest features of the latest android.
CM9.1 (android 4.0) is between ACEROm and HyperionX.
SO overall I would recommend ACERom if you dont mind some lags or you can go for HyperionX.
I hope this helps.

Which is the best ROM you guys have discovered for REDMI 2 PRIME

Hello guys !
I have been a new member of XDA . (**noobie** tho ) . I own a REDMI 2 PRIME . I have flashed many roms and kernels on my device suggested by xda but until now i have not found anything i.e. any ROM that i might stick onto. I always flash a new rom and within 3-4 days seeing the battery consumption i revert back to MIUI ROM . Please suggest me with links to the ROM and kernels that i should try on and can hold on to a particular rom.
Thanks Guys !

Look....devs are tried or trying to make ROM that is suitable for us .So be greatful to them.
I am using cm 13(official) and du by dual boot and I am happy.
BTW ...u can't get everything work perfectly in anything in this world.....

In my experience if you are going for bugless you should go for stock which is pretty good and especially on prime much smoother compared to 1gb variant.
On other hand any custom ROM come with trade off,most stable ROM on r2 is DU but it won't support Jio,then there is Orion by same dev which is minimal and excellent ROM in itself ,if you are new to custom Roms then you should stick to CyanogenMod which offers AOSP looks with its own set of features and is reliable,

Reply 1 :Your review was awesome ! Will surely try this beta rom !
Reply 2 :The phone is awesome and i dont see a chance that i might be changing this phone because of its compact size and its battery life on stock rom . The wierd thing that happens is that i have seen many people say that a particular rom say CM13 official nightly build is the best stable rom for redmi 2 prime but i used it and saw a pretty lag even when the phone booted up for the first time that is no new apps installed for a day and then i would have to revert back to my stock rom !
Hehe that is what going on from all the roms i have tried . I havent tried tesla rom latest build for miui redmi 2 prime which users say is the best rom until now ! So lets see what happens next
