Due to a certain other "poll" containing, let's say, less than scientific data, I decided to open an actual poll to try to gauge the interest in various TouchWiz/AOSP/MTD ROMs. There are, of course, several caveats which are listed as follows:
All Fascinate AOSP ROMs owe their existence to jt1134, so his work will be in all of these
Some ROMs have only recently appeared in this forum (such as Pool Party), thus older ROMs will naturally have a higher number of users
This poll does not include ROMs that are not posted here in XDA, so users of ROMs that are posted in Rootzwiki are not counted
Numbers may reflect preferences for TouchWiz or AOSP/MTD more than they reflect preference for a specific developer's work
Ugh - forgot to include Pool Party - please click "other" if you are using this one

I voted for MIUI (andmer) even though I'm running dfgas' mesmerize one, since we wouldn't have anything over there if it weren't for andmer.

Hey Master, since you are a developer can you answer question I've asked many times but still no answer.
How does one backup their stock kernel and radio/modem.
For example if I flash your Axura ROM, and I decide I want to go completely back to stock 2.1, I can use Nandroid for my ROM right? What about backing up and restoring my stock kernel, radio/modem etc?
thanks!
Axura all the way!

Well you can always do the easiest way, and take a look at what modem & kernel you are using in the settings.. E.g, JI2 Modem = JI2 Kernel
I think TeamWhiskey has a few d/ls with Kernels && Modem packages on there site.
So if there is another way of doing it, then I don't really know.
thanks for the posts guys.. just wanted some advice on the better rom.. I AM currently using axura right now with voodoo and a 1.3ghz OC.. wanting oclf more tho.. but I guess u just gotta get lucky to use oclf on this rom because I have tried installing oclf on my rom 4 or 5 times and it bricks it everytime.. so just gotta deal with voodoo...
but I mainly wanted to kno suggestions about macnut bc iv seen alot of posts saying macnut is better but also seen the same with axura

To be perfectly honest. You're likely to see a 2.3 from Samsung first.
I'm not doubting these developers but its like they just like to theme up the same rom over and over. Pick any rom and its the exact same as the others , just a different theme and some minor tweaks. Tweaks you can find with a quick google.
I have 2.3.1 AOSP booting but 2d isn't working out for me. Some modules aren't building either.

I know for a fact that these developers do more than "theme and tweak". They not only improve the current roms by increasing stability but they get the sources and build their own kernels and release them for good use. These devs make the vibrant a powerhouse. And they do it for free. So do your research bro

right now, CM is working on CM7 for i9000. and krylon360 of teamwhiskey is working on a direct AOSP build for the vibrant. (CM7 and AOSP ARE different, believe it or not)

Well it's really hard to "Create" a new feature and dev's only put things together while people like marcellusbe makes the features and he can't just give it to 1 person and not someone else. But the good thing is that some Roms look better than others and they get updates faster.

Which indroid? I used to use custom no lagfix 3.0 and it was very very very STABLE for me
I must agree with this observation, too many roms with equal functionalitys, maybe if we have just 2 ou 3 three it would be better for the 5800 community. I think there is a lack of focus, but anyway, i give credit to all rom developers, they now have the knowledge to devel a super rom all together. :-D
on the one side jae, but on the other side no, because everyone is right to present his work, but there are only 3 to 4 big developers, who brought out good Roms
based on JPM,JIT by ARMV and Fugumod OC, no OC, albeit some are DDJP2. The biggest difference is the theme, which can be changed easily.
I'm using Kyrillos's ROM. It's stable for me.
I'm currently working on a FROYO 2.2 Based Rom. I attached a screen shot of it. There's alot of stuff that I need to fix on this rom. I'm currently running and testing it on my device everyday.
