I have tried about 8-10 roms on my Epic since I got it when it came out. My favorite roms hands down have been ACS Syndicate Frozen 1.1 & 1.2. Accompanied by TwilightZone 1.1.1 Kernel, Frozen 1.1 had better reliability for me, but 1.2 performs the best with a random glitch here and there. I have tried to go to EH17, EG22, and lately EI22, but I get frustrated with them and always window up going back to SRF 1.2.
I have spent the past two days trying out the ERA EI22 rom. Nice fast rom, but I found myself missing Launcher Plus from SRF 1.2 and my battery life wasn't as good. I also was unable to send MMS messages (maybe cuz I stayed with EC05 modem?). The excessive use of overscroll glow (like even during horizontal scrolling when viewing a webpage in the browser) and animations didn't please me either.
Anyway, the problem is I really want to make the move to Gingerbread, but I keep finding myself going back to SRF 1.2 because its simply the ****. Is it just to early on for me to jump on the Gingerbread bandwagon if I want SRF1.2 features and reliability? What are all you SRF 1.2 fans doing? If you have taken a liking to a specific Gingerbread rom and deem it a suitable SRF 1.2 replacement, please share your opinion!
Thanks.
Also,
Is Launcher Plus compatible with any rom, or does it have to be pre-installed by a dev?
Silly question, but what are the significant changes/benefits from going from Froyo EC05 to Gingerbread EI22 anyways?
I still haven't made the jump to EI22. Been on SRF for a long time, except have switched to RandomROM Phoenix for a bit. It seems like there are still a few bugs in each of the EI22 custom roms, but I'm looking forward to trying CompKid's next release, as well as RandomROM Thunderhawk for EI22. Just gonna wait a few more day till the devs get all the kinks ironed out. SRF 1.3 is apparently a EC05 based ROM that may or may not see the light of day. Not sure when they'll make SRF for Gingerbread.
Launcher Pro is compatible with anything. You can download it from the market, clear the defaults under settings>applications for whatever launcher you were using. Then when you hit the home key it'll ask you what launcher you want to use and you can tell it to remember that choice to make Launcher Pro the default.
Cool thanks for that Launcher Pro info!
I've been using SRF for a long time. My only reason for trying a switch was something happened to the file system where I kept getting google framework fc's almost anytime i touched the screen. wiped and reflashed my trusty SRF 1.2, but one I restored my nandroid backup, problem came right back. I figured if I had to go thru a titanium backup restore, or no restore at all and start from scratch, I might as well try gbread.
This morning I updated to ACS recovery from CWM purple, and also installed a fresh SRF 1.2 and restored via titanium backup and all is good now!
I am as big a fan as anyone of ACS SRF 1.2, but since going to EI22 ERA am not looking back. GB is much smoother, my battery life is already better and my phone seems to work as it was intended. Miss my Zeam launcher, but also thought it was a source of my problems with 1.2. Miss my Emotionless Beast theme, but CRT animations make up for it. What GB needs is a working wireless Hotspot app (back to ad hoc wireless tether), and a rotation lag fix.
Go with thunderhawk ei22. I love my frozen 1.2 as much as anyone, but I don't think you will be disappointed in this rom. Great job as always Random!

There have been many ROMs that tempted me to move from SRF 1.2, but nothing seemed like a daily driver. I'm on the second day of ACS ICS EI22 and it's looking good so far. I did have to update the theme to fix an issue with the sub-menus, but the ROM is fast and everything works well.
For some reason trying to restore from my Titanium backup broke my contacts app. I had to re-flash and now I'm running from a clean install. There wasn't much that could tempt me away from SRF 1.2, but ACS ICS did it and I'm enjoying it so far.
I made the jump to EI22 and my phone doesn't like it any more than any of the other GB releases....soooooo I guess GB was not meant for me :/

I completely agree with this post. ACS ICS 3.5 is running perfectly for me so far, and even has improved my battery life significantly. The only thing I'm itching for is native flac support.

no offense but we've all been seeing this and rumors about 1.3 for months. The rumors aren't even details about the rom its usually just "I've been testing it and its great". I've been looking forward to it but with all this wait and buildup... I don't see it living up to the hype.

So my question is which 2.2 ROM should I choose to update my Epic4g
I already running a 2.1 based rom from ACS (Syndicate ROM).
Flash is the only upside I'm am seeing atm. For some reason Im doubting ill see any day by day performance increases. or am I wrong?
Tried stock 2.2 but ended up going back to stock 2.1. Flash support in browser, bluetooth voice dialing, etc. are useful but don't make up for losing MobileAP support which currently works only in 2.1. Some of the other enhancements in 2.2 don't really add to the experience or workflow such as preview windows in browser. I prefer the simplicity and workflow of 2.1. Also, after a few days of using 2.2 GPS stopped locking on no matter what I tried including toggling airplane mode and the only way to restore GPS was to power cycle. GPS on 2.1, on the other hand, has been stable so far.
If your looking for stability and battery life stay away from the un-official 2.2 for now..
These are based on a slightly flaky release.
Don't get me wrong I have loaded most all of them out of curiosity BUT...
Froyo is still sadly not ready for prime time.

I would have to disagree here. When the first froyo leaks came out I would areee that it was not ready. Now there are some good ones that are stable and have good battery life. I like nebula and bonsai the best. I would say give it a shot and if you don't like it go abck to 2.1. Flash runs choppy for me though.

I'm really enjoying the latest update of Epic Experience. It feels really snappy, and the battery life is stellar. I've also had no trouble with GPS or tethering. The browser just has a strange loading animation. Other than that, it's awesome.
I am running DK28 viper 2.0 trinity with the genocide kernel and I am pretty happy with it. It is ridiculously fast and haven't had any problems with it all.
Is it worth going to all the trouble to flash it to EB13? Is it any better than the viper rom?
EB13 is amazingly smooth. There are a lot of shortcomings, but omfg the smoothness.
Plus pretty soon I'm sure viper rom well require eb13.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Your rom will most likely be updated to EB13 in the future, if you want to wait to just update the rom. I flashed the deodexed EB13 and am using LauncherPro and have not had any issues whatsoever, it is amazingly smooth and stable for me.
I think I will wait to change... It took a lot of time to find a ROM that was kickass and I don't want to downgrade it to EB13 if the specs are not overwhelming.

Specs? God knows you could never get back that millisecond extra it took you to open up a app.
Dk28 will not be supported anymore. If you like viper rom then just wait till they get a rom on eb13 and then upgrade to it.
I'm liking EB13 haven't seen the dk28 bugs like wifi errors.
My Experience with EB13
Here are the pros:
-Great TouchWiz launcher improvements. Allows for user settable home screens up to 7.
-Bluetooth VoiceDial works if you Odin the.tar file.
If you flash EB13 with CWM or update.zip its hit or miss. (errors out right after connecting to headset). I tried several times and still buggy.
-EB13 modem seems stable.
-TWS issues.
Here are the cons:
-Map compass is 180' off. Fix is to calibrate screen upside down. Then its fine. Accurate within 3-5 meters and oriented correctly.
So far I am running unrooted and happy. Baking it for a week.
Once I remove the bloatware, this should be a fast, smooth machine and I will be even happier. Stay tuned.
Epic Stock EB13 (Odin) Unrooted for now.
I say yes.
I have EB13 deodexed with Genocide 0.3a kernel and LauncherPro+, and everything is buttery smooth for me.
With the camera blur fixed. Its worth it. I love it!
I've noticed 0 difference, going from dk28 to eb13... genocide . 3a is AMAZING!!!!! But I was running it on dk28 also.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I'd say yes since the voice call (speaker toggle) bug and wifi bugs are no more, and it is smoother overall performance than DK28. Personally I would just flash the genocide .3 kernal on top of what you have now as I believe genocide is compatible with DK28 (or was it just that first release) and then wait till they update viper to eb13.
I plan on upgrading, just waiting for a ROM that catches my eye.

ACS Syndicate is so FAST. They are about to release the 1.1 version. Make sure to update. Excellent fixes involved. Should be the best EB13 ROM until Gingerbread (CM7) releases.

have any of you who previously have installed bionix 1.3.1 converted to another rom and stuck with it? if so, which, and why?
I've tried others including Bionix-v 1.3.2 test and Bionix Next Gen. I keep going back to 1.3.1. I just prefer it. It's simple and effective and does what it's supposed to.
I flashed a 2.2.1 ROM (Bi-Winning) and loved the speed and the hardware acceleration in the browser, and the battery life was pretty similar to Bionix-v 1.3.1, so I decided to keep it. I tried going back to 2.2 roms like B-v 1.3.1 and Trigger 2.0.1 but there were just little things that made me go back to Bi-Winning.
YMMV, but as much I love TW's roms I just can't leave 2.2.1.
Still using bionix 1.3.1 and never try other.
it is so stable and I dont want to test any others.
Dev section is flooded with new roms which is hard to try one by one.
I really want a 2.3 rom but GPS is needed for me.
Any 2.3 rom has a chance to have a working GPS? or simply all 2.3 roms have dead GPS at all?
I've always been a Bionix fan, but I tried out Trigger 3.2 today, and it just FLEW compared to Bionix 1.3.1 for me.
I also love Trigger's theme, and the font they use.
This is the first ROM that is actually better then Bionix for me, and I'm sticking with it.
Switched from bionix to trigger and never looked back.

Same here, switched from Bionix to Trigger. The best move i've made. Trigger is the natural successor of Bionix. go ahead install trigger and you will be happy.
I'm another Trigger convert for a stable 2.2.
I switched to trigger 3.1 for a while. It is a very nice rom, once nextgen came out I had to try it. This rom is great! Very fast. Loving it
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Yes....I went from Bionix 1.3.1 to Bionix 1.3.2. It's insanely fast and never flashing anything again until a very good 2.3 Rom comes out where you dont have to jump through hoops to flash and are as good as 2.2 roms. And this won't happen until an official 2.3 rom leaks for the vibrant and then devs have a a few weeks to tinker with it. Until then, Bionix 1.3.2 is super fast and no bugs.
nope. stuck with it + overstock (no oc).
stable + battery life through the roof
i'll convert when we get a GB
I was a long time TeamWhiskey fan. Their roms are still amazing, but as an upgrade junky, when they stopped with 2.2(1.3 and nexgen) and 2.2.1(frost), there hasnt been much lately. Frost wasnt as good as I had hoped. Now I am currently back and forth trying newer 2.2.1 and 2.3.4 roms...patiently awaiting cm7!!!
I used TW roms for a while, but always had a random problem of all sounds stop working, and would need to reboot to fix. Switched to trigger as well, and hav not looked back.
I saw the thread and though I would pop in to say Trigger . . . but after reading the thread that seems like I would just be throwing fuel on the fire.

Hope I will be one of them instead of you
I tried Trigger 3, was happy with it, better than Bionix. But then BiWinning got my heart, together with the Bali kernel. It's just so fast and responsive.
you guys should try trigger 3.2 with bullet . you will never go back lol
I was a faithful Team Whiskey user until CM7 came out for vibrant, then I jumped ship and never looked back. I don't use GPS and I always keep a charger with me so bad battery life and no GPS didn't faze me.
I used TW roms up until they stopped updating them after 1.3.1... i switched to Trigger and Im happy with it... hopefully we'll see something worth while from TW soon

I flashed it probably 5-6 months ago. Now its not quite as quick as it once was...kinda seems a little buggy.
So I'm looking to flash a new rom. I'm looking for something that is stable and quick and wont be a bunch of trouble flashing over bionix 1.3.1.

.....anyways GoodVibe having Overstock don't matter cuz it will get replaced after you flash your new ROM with whatever kernel that ROM comes with but ,since you're moving from Bionix, make sure you disable Voodoo. Try the Bali 1.8.8 kernel if you end up flashing a Froyo ROM that supports it (good battery life). Your gonna have a little more work to do if you go to a GB ROM.
I decided I'm gonna keep Bionix 1.3.1 on my daily Vibrant since I don't have any issues with it and when I get more time try others on my spare Vibrant. If Bionix feels a lil laggy try going to recovery and wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, fix permissions and see if that helps to refresh it or you could always re-flash it to get it fresh again, but I'm pretty sure your itching to try something new. Luck homie.

Thanks mrrob...that's exactly the kind of info I was looking for. I've been out of the loop for a little bit and I don't feel like reading through 25 threads to figure out what rom bugs out when flashed over whatever kernel or vice versa. And I also don't know what roms are stable and user friendly and what are just nuts. I tried TW frost when it first came out and that wrecked my phone. So I flashed back to jfd and then bionix and quit flashing for a while. Too much risk for me I guess.
Its funny...there are so many roms now. I remember just a few months ago cm7 was new for vibrant and the only other real decent roms were trigger, bionix, and azura I think. Just a few and that was it.
Thanks for the info guys. I have a new TW link to check out but most likely I'll fix permissions and dalvik and if all else fails just reflash bionix 1.3.1.

This thread would be great if new people would read it instead of posting new threads on "what's the best ROM". They could see which is the most popular and ask questions here. Nice. (but that won't happen lol).
waiting patiently for CM7
I was trying different ones last night and my god are they all fast including stock unrooted. Marcusant's ICS is what I've settled on right now. Legendary was good but too Vanilla Android for me. If you like that sort of thing, jump right on. I'll also be testing some others. Tomahawk may be good if you're very used to SRF. It looks very similar. Haven't gotten to load it yet. Haven't had any issues at all. Seems more customizeable or maybe practice with the leaks has yielded superior results. Seems like there's going to be more coming, too!
i have been using ICS v2. i love it so far, i did have one random reboot, but its fast, seems more consistent than my previous rom (bonsai ec05). I cant wait for the GPS to be fixed, i am loving this room so far (well im not too much of a fan of the glowing blue scroll bars).
Best ROM for ECO5 powered Epic is deadly package of srf 1.2 + Genocide 2.0 OC to 1.4Ghz
For Ei22 , I have virtually tested all available roms (all versions too) and found ERA Legendary beta 3.1 + AIP rom OCed to 1.2 to be most stable and swift.
Loving it... maybe ACS guys will come with next version of SRF 2.0.

Yes, that's the one. I didn't like ERA on screen kb with tinny keys or blue swype and switched to Flex-T9.
The latest ACS-ICS V3.5 release seems to be working great! No issues found with gps- locking 8/8 satellites from indoors, and no issues sending mms, or uploading photos for facebook.
ACS and Marcusant have done a great job with this Gingerbread release.
Clean GB has been working fine for me with no glitches at all
EDIT - I know I said I'm waiting on CM7 , but I starting going into withdrawals
um that starsky rom looks pretty ok to me....
lol
check sig :]
Got it downloaded too for future reference if I have future problems with ACS-ICS.
CleanGB....battery life is great for me, and with the black theme, it is what it says....clean! Thinking about flashing the samurai kernel over it.
Though, I do have nandroids of cm7 and miui that I'm sure I will jump back to from time to time. Cm7 was my dd since the last release until last night. Besides video recording, everything else worked great for me, including mms, and being able to switch themes on the fly is awesome.
Gonna stick with cleangb for a bit though. Good stuff!

I'm using ACS ICS 3.5 and I'm quite impressed. It's definitely a speed demon...really snappy. The kernel seems to be very stable in overclock also. This new GB with the ACS ICS ROM is more than i was expecting, especially considering the newness of it. I don't miss my old FROYO/syndicate frozen ROM one bit. Gingerbread/ACS ICS and a little bit of Voltage control tweaking...well...it's like I have a brand new phone.
