What is the best ROM for SGS

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!

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

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.

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.

agreed dont know how everyone can say get gingerbread when it has bugs that are not in 2.2.1..
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

Recommend a new rom for me!

All that matters to me is speed, stability and battery life.
I have been running Darkys 9.2 for a long time now, but the battery life is getting to be very poor, so looking to try out something new.
Appart from the battery life if has been rock solid to date.
Any advice is welcome

...bit like saying "all that matters is health, wealth and happiness"
There are plenty out there and only one way to find out, happy flashing
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

In my opinion, there isn't a perfect rom in this world which matches your description. However, if I were to choose one, I would choose Cyanogenmod 7. It is currently on Nightly, but it is stable enough for daily usage. Battery life is not that good, but its speed complements it, combined with loads of customisations available.
I hope that helps, mate

So why not flash stock odexed JVQ without any modifactions?

Try s.u.f.a.ce rom .Its a base rom with addons I installed the base and manually extracted and installed what I wanted from the addons. Almost a build your own without being a developer. Fastest rom ive tried with best battery because its light

This ^
Ive tried a bunch, I only flashed this ROM cuz Sam ported a theme I liked ended up liking the ROM since its a barebones ROM
Other then that ROM Id go with just a stock JVQ, Ive always fallen back to the stock ROMs after not liking something about the customs I installed

Thanks guys will give s.u.r.f.a.c.e a shot!
Just out of interest, does it have a lagfix like Darkys rom?
Cyanogen's battery issues are keeping me away from it for now.
I have it on my wife's wildfire and its a completely new animal since I flashed it.

Yes it does

F1 Galaxy S2 V6
no battery drain and smooth with galaxianEE2.4 kernel

GingerReal 7.1.4 , Semaphore 1.3.3. kernel, works briliant-e.

Search: Android Development topic

Stock is the best...

In the past weeks i tested several roms and kernels.
Roms: GingerReal 7.1.4, Surface 2.1, Juwe 5.2, CM7, Darky 10.2
Kernel: Speedmod, Galaxian, Semaphore
For me the best pair is Darkys Rom with the semaphore kernel on EXT4.
I never had such a smooth, speedy and long battery usage on any rom/kernel.

[Q] FreeX10 2.3

Hi, Okay so I have running Free X10 2.2.1 with baseband 2.1.54
I want to try a 2.3 ROM and I've been looking at the Free X10 2.3
however the requirements here:
Requirements:
1. Rooted 2.3.3 ROM
2. working xRecovery 0.3
3. Baseband 71+
I need to have a rooted 2.3.3 ROM before I installed the Free X10 2.3.3?
How do I upgrade my baseband?
Is there any efficient way to back up and restore your apps between flashing?

Yes. Just use flashtool to upgrade. Then root then install recovery. It if your on 2.2 just connect it to pc companion. And also u already posted a thread like this. Dont double post
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Okay sorry. Im just new at flashing and using custom ROMs. I just have a few questions to get started. My phone is rooted and I have already flashed from eclair to froyo free x10. I would have posted in that same previous post but it said thread closed.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

I would not suggest to move to FreeX10 2.3.3 as it's development was stopped, it will not be improved and has many bugs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208145&page=17
But if you still want to try it, just make sure you flash the baseband after you installed the ROM with xRecovery.

try the new cm7 instead...

What are you talking about? many bugs? I was using it as my daily rom (Until Z's CM7 came out) & I didn't find one single bug, It's stable & fast

Can someone post a link for Z's CM7? I wanna try it out.
also, how I do upgrade my baseband before doing this upgrade. I'm currently on Z's Free X10 2.2.1

Also, i notice that my autocorrect and auto punctuate (double space to make a . )
The settings are turned on but are not taking effect

You dont need rooted 2.3 rom all you need to do is flash the rom take out battery open flashtool and flash baseband 71 or vice versa

I bet he thinks development stopped = bugs hell.
And the new CM7 is a lot more buggy than you think. Wifi not working, battery drainage(just me?), etc.
Just get FreeX10 2.3. You don't need to be on 2.3. Just flash the ROM via xRec, pull out the battery, put it in back and flash the new baseband and kernel.
But you said you like living at the bleeding edge, so you can give the new CM7ZMOD a try.
Sent from my X10 using XDA App

Okay awesome. I'll just give Free X10 2.3 a try (I'm really liking Free X10 2.2 so far).
Sorry to be such a noob, but can someone give me a quick run down on how to get/use Flashtool? Thanks.

Well actually I think CM7 is not that buggy either, Wifi will be fixed by Z soon I bet, hell it's already fixed by a member by replacing a file from another rom, as for your battery drainage, it's ok here, not as good as FreeX10 but ok, maybe do some battery calibration & stuff? also gps is on by default so turn it off
But overall I prefer FreeX10 2.3 too, CM7 is faster (it's the fastest gb I've tried) even the first time you boot up the rom, the speed & the way bootanimation loads is just amazing, But Freex10 is rock solid stable with great battery life & very fast too

His CM7 ZMOD is probably better than FreeX10 2.3.3.
As for WiFi in CM7, here's the fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16602945&postcount=265

Try wolfs ROM, alot better then cm7zmod

You can try stock 2.3.5.
Another option is cyanogen mod 7.1

Personally I think that the best ROM he should try is: Simple Beautyone.
And one advantage, as this is ROM for HD2, based on Windows Mobile 6.5, it is even more irrelevant for him than yours...

IMHO, use MIUI as its very clean..
Then flash MyUI EnhancerMOD v3.0
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1304240
I am using it whole day today, with heavy use of wifi and 3g, battery 15% at 9pm (on single charge), and the speed is awesome.

Hi,
I have two roms I like to use:
Juwe's rom, now v6 version
Doctors rom, also v6 version.
Both rom are based on 2.3.5 JVT including Semaphone kernel 1.8.
Personally I prefer Doctors rom because it is very fast and the battery lasts for me 50-70 hours.

1. If you want a 100% working rom with a lot of support go with classic and mikg
2. I don't use cyanogenmod
3.you could stick with stock or try out one of the lionfish kernels. I recommend you use stock voltage one for now

Myn's Warm series have always been very smooth and stable for me. I'm not going to give you a link, you can find it yourself in the Dev section.

Energy 2/6/12 rom is awesome... nice and smooth pretty much bug free. can be a bit hefty on the internal storage, but with dt a2sd and dalvik on sd card its not bad.

I second this. Wife wanted an iPhone, I wasn't having that. She got an Evo and complained since day one....until this build of MIUI. She is overjoyed now. I've flashed a lot of stuff on mine and am very happy with the look and feel. Much better than any Sense based ROM I have tried by far and doesn't look like any other Android build without heavy customization. Just runs nicely out out of the box.
Doesn't have 4g but I never turned it on anyway.
