What's your favorite custom ROM so far? What are you running currently?

I am curious about which ROMs everyone is running and enjoying the most.
Please redirect me if such a thread already exists. I searched the DI forums and didn't find one.

Cm all the way
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App

Lovin' me some tasty Froyo, with Sky Raider 1.9.

CM too. Tried Sky Raider, but CM is just so clean and fast I had to switch back. I can live without a camera for a couple weeks

Interested to see the replies to this one as well - I would love to go to CM6, but losing the camera means too much to me right now (work related, sadly).

I tried out CM6 (Koush_Test) last night. The one interesting thing I noticed, was the battery was draining like crazy. The battery stat said the display was utilizing 75%.
I went back, due to not having the Camera... When you have kids, I need to be ready.. It was fun to mess with.

I am on Jager 1.8ota and stock kernel and I love it I was on his 1.8 with the hydra 1.13 kernel which is really great too!

Stock 2.1! I have overclocked/hacked every electronic device in my house that could possibly have it done except for my phone. I want to wait for the official Froyo OTA update then have a go at it (in the meantime I will just have to settle with jtagging my Xbox 360 and setting it up to run games off an external HD =).

Been using 1.2 yasr and have been really happy. I think i just like launcher pro though. Love to do cm6 but the camera is an issue for me as well. Official froyo will be welcomed.

It's good. Basically rooting your phone, removing the junk (sense included), leaving exchange support and adding launcher pro.

It's way better it's like stock ROM but without sense and a lot faster and it has great batterylife!! i'm actually using it and it proved that it's the best out there, with an undervolt and overclock hydra kernel you don't need anything else, would love to use skyrider 1.9 but i'm waiting for the camera, i already tried jagger, CM and basically everyone on incredibleroms dot com and believe YASR is way better if you need link just search here in the forum yasr 1.1! =) cheers

[Q] Fastest rom?

Hi,
Which one is the fastest rom (stock or custom)?
Thanks...

There are multiple different stock and custom kernel roms. But in general custom is not as stable but is "faster", at this point which one you use is up to you.
I wonder if I misunderstand what you mean by custom, oh well ^_^

By "custom", I mean CM, TripMiUI an etc... I think... hehehe...

wait for a stable custom kernel with 30fps uncapped and 16m collors. It will own all othe Roms

Freex10 beta 4 + data2sd you score up to 2300 on quadrant
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App

had data2sd before, doesnt improve anything significantly.
to answer the question of the thread, all people using cm6 v5 seem to be happy with its speed, including me. i havent run a quadrant test in months since i realized those numbers dont really matter. what matters is if YOU think the phone is fast, not what some app tells u is fast.

I totally agree on what you have said, hence for stability and usability, I would recommend stock + JIT mod.
However if you want more performance numbers and flash 10.2, then I'll recommend WB's CM6.1.3

wolfbreaks best for me

Trips miui rom with free kernal is extremely fast and smooth!

There are no requirements, you just have to be rooted. Install GingerXperia it has the overclock module built in. Personally I find it alot faster and smoother than GingerDx.
Sent from my E15i using xda premium

Thanks @Nimbah..... How much It will increase probably i ned 708 Mhz.. Can i ask you another question, if i want to play N.O.V.A How much mhz that i should need.

It depends on the rom you are using.
Hit the THANKS button if I helped!!

It really depends on your phone and rom, I can get stable at 710MhZ so it should be good. 710 should be okay for Nova, install chainfire3D if it crashes.

Hello ... dude if your are into gaming
..then go for mini cm 7 or froyo roms they are smoother

Ics beast rom

Hi there. Been using icebox beast rom and its awesome. Go launcher is a bit choppy though and not as smooth as Id like. Switched to launcher pro and my phone feels like new. So smooth and quick.
Sent from my Hero using XDA

i'd love to use the beast flavor v1.1 too, but the missing multilanguage thing makes me using the HeroICS v3 rom who runs well but not flawless. Anyone try to use the morelocale2 app?? does it translate all the rom? thanks..

Use v0.2 there's hardly any difference
Sent from my Hero using XDA

humm I have some doubts.. most people said this was a major difference and i think also Icebox said it too..

v1.1 it's much more complete. I strongly suggest you try that instead of v0.1 or any other version because v0.1 used CM 7.2 rc2 as a base and people were making noise that after a while the rom becomes heavy and laggy. So v1 had the base changed to Decked_X for much better speed and stability (indeed it is much speedy than v0.1 and go launcher moves smooth on it), though you have only english...

Go launcher not as smooth as launcher pro. I'm on v1.1. Unless I have something that needs setting. Also mediafire is terrible on mobile it wont load

Well yeah, nothing can beat Launcher Pro, but Go launcher moves smooth as well on my hero (using it and my hero is OC'ed only at 176 - 633 mhz)

Still the best rom I've used though . You're a genius

you want to know more? just go to feralabs post, stick to thete daily.
feravolt's roms are perfect. and he release updates often.
Sent from my X10i using xda premium

report
yes.... but feralab rom >>> fast &....... its very very beter !!!

LESS asking, MORE READING.
Please. It's not that hard to read through the few recent pages of the threads (devel or general), yes?
But I'll just tell you, that CM9.1 is pretty stable for daily use. WLOD might be occurring, but rarely (to me at least). Other functions are working great, except for video recording/encoding/decoding.
And to be frank, I don't like Fera's ROMs. I have my own reasons. I'm not gonna trigger a flame war, so let's just stop there.

Dude is the fps uncapped for ics roms? I hav 2.3.3 uncpped at 53-54fps. I heard that x10 ics roms are still capped at 30fps.
Sent from my X10i using xda premium

Yes, all is only at 30 FPS for now. But it's not a big deal. The scrolling still looks smooth, just the animations aren't really that smooth (but big improvement when the animations speed are halved).

Go for FeraLab
Out of the ics roms i have tried the Feralab Ics roms were the fastest and most stable. They are also very light roms and the camera is almost fixed jst needs video recording to be perfect. Also fera has been working very hard on improving this.

Fera ICS has been uncapped to 38-40 fps

buddy, stop the laziness & go read the rom's threads or better flash an ICS rom & see for yourself or even better flash an ICS rom & test it & report bugs and participate in development
but speaking of stability all of them are stable for daily use but I prefer FXP's CM9, but the question is are they fast & smooth enough for daily use? After using a super fast GB rom like CM7ZMOD I'm having a hard time adapting to X10's ICS roms, not sure if it's because of X10's lack of enough ram or fps uncap but I think I'll be back to CM7ZMOD in a while
Also check out for Achotjan's Semc Debrand Engine CM9, I know it'll be great

Yea dude I really should check out. Thing is I don't hav regular laptop access and use frm mob. Also there r soo many roms that kinda confuse and.so.many kernels. So wished to hear from people what the prefer ... I.currently am.planning to unlock my bootloader and then flash cm9.1 . I dunno abt fera kernel and all ...thanx anyways.

I support this, ICS is stable for daily use but not as responsive as the best GB roms so far.
what's holding back our device is that ancient 2.6.29 kernel, ICS relies on hardware acceleration for a lot of things and we simply can't have it working at it's fullest unless someone manages to get a newer version. I know fera is trying with the .32 one, fingers crossed.
