if you're on nexus s 4g, check out vhgomez ics build. i have had no complaints thus far.
Does vhgomez has everything working (4g, GPS) and good battery life.

oICS is IMHO, the best ICS ROM available right now.
oICS
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
OICS43 on my vote
Stock OTA. Went from all the cooked roms with force closes and random reboots to a very smooth and no issue OTA.
No matter what anybody says.
Stable = stock
I think the word "stable" or "bulletproof" or "swag" or "-_-" are overly used way out of proportion. To the point of them actually becoming meaning-less. Sad.
But since you're here I'm judging you want a custom ROM, because they're cooler. Well not even I could make a better ROM than oICS. Not even I.

oICSv43 has ran perfect for 3 days here. Everything works! Google video chat, camera, etc. I removed system apps I don't use and use setcpu to set the gov to conservative. Mild tweaks we all do. It works perfect. Using supplied kernel

for me, everything works perfectly. i never was able to get 4g on my phone before until i flashed this baby. i run it with the included kernel, on nstools, min 200 max 1000 on the lagfree govenor.
i agree that oics 43 is a very, very good ROM as well, but something about vhgomez really gets me.
if anything, just give a shot and if not happy, switch to another option.
happy new year!
Peter Alfonso Stock Rom + Latest Eugene kernel is the best combo Good luck

Wait for it. It is definitely not daily driver yet.

I've been using it for a daily driver for about one month now. I consider it stable enough as a daily driver as do many other people do.
The only annoying thing is mute/unmute. But it annoys my friends more than me because they start off saying "hello???" and then I remember to do it
The mute/unmute thing isn't much of an issue to me. Its only happened to me once. The only thing that bothers me is GPS but other than that its a good daily driver. Also one of the things that I really like about it is the T-Mobile theme engine. It makes switching themes a breeze. Being able to watch Netflix on my phone is great as well.

Salvage mod 1.4, I still find myself going back to it when I get sick of charging my phone.
OMGB is the most vanilla rom I've used/seen.

^^^ SalvageMod 1.4 is an excellent pure vanilla rom! Stability wise it's hard to match, and it's extremely lite weight.
BTW for SM fans check this out..

Yes some info about ROM and other stuffs , though am pretty sure I will end up formatting and trying a new ROM in a month but with my ZTE Blade I found my stable ROM a long time back so this kind of uptime was normal in that still not so on Nexus.
i use stock rom and kernel on 2g and auto brigteness. (screen shot update on first post)

Stock rom's are actually stable. I'm sorry to tell you guys, but that's nothing impressive. Two of my coworkers have their running since they got updated to JB, and they're i9020a. Admittedly they are used as work phones but the point still stands. What is impressive is finding a custom ROM or a ROM with tweaks that can do this.
Many times custom roms are unstable, but there also stable roms..
Perhaps people who uses custom roms, like to flash and try new roms, change kernels and so on. So it's obvious that uptimes are lower than a user that doesn't change anything for 41 days (1000 hours)...
Love this rom, but is there a way to get the camcorder working by Kernel update?
Also wifi and data strength is kinda low, any suggestions? By low I mean that I keep switching to 3g.

As nice as Slim is, this seems to be the only 4.2.2 ROM for the M that has not been keeping up with the latest developments. There are several other 4.2.2 ROMs that are working in every aspect.
Updating the kernel on this ROM will NOT work.

try this one out first:
http://droid-hive.com/index.php?/topic/2047-romunofficial-aokp-625/
Tried both.
Eclipse has way too many bugs with sound when docked and fcs, Aokp seems stable but worst signal strength so far I haven't seen it go into 4g yet and wifi is always fair maybe good if really close to the router. Any suggestions?
Sent from my mini_scorpion using XDA Premium HD app
Try a clean flash again. I get great signal on AOKP, better than Slim and as good as stock. If you don't like the AOSP ROMs, stick with stock.

use a touchwiz rom - problem solved though it doesn't seem all that bad - considering it hasn't fully drained and you've also had a reboot of some sort which has screwed up the battery stats (random line/drop).

In the latest CM nightly, I have been able to get some really impressive results with almost 2 hours of screen-on time, games, wifi, calls, SMS, etc. i have more than 13 hours and I am right now at 75% charge. I found that, since I don't use NFC, simply disabling it, then deleting it (freezing it or just turning it off doesn't work) I was able to squeeze out even more juice.
At this rate, I'm on track for two days on a single charge, which is something I never thought I'd see on CM.
Your signal stinks. Try backing off the 4g lte until you really need the extra data speed. When the phone it idle and kn voice calls you don't need 4g. So keep it on 3g. You will have a better signal and that will greatly improve your battery life.

I'm using PA 3.99 currently and I really love it, I don't think it's the ROM causing bad battery life though.
