Hello guys I'm new here,i get this device 2 days ago(coming from HTC Pico development)...I want your opinion for the fastest ROM,with a nice battery life and UI .Kernel too !
Regards !
i don't know about speed but if you want good battery life and stability, you should use original samsung gb roms like jw1 or newer (my choice is jw1 rom with jvt modem and aosp lock). Then use cf-root for rooting and remove bloatwares. A little advice, don't waste your time with ics or jb developments, because you don't seem to looking for only the fastest rom.

I like this: Slim Bean http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780071
Test yourself
I've tested almost 10 ROMS, and in my opinion, test yourself.
For me, based on JB are good but battery life very poor.
Based on ICS, the best at the moment. My favorites:
1. Realrom v5: Very good battery, smooth, but not very good for playing.
2. SlimRom: very nice, very smooth, no lags but poor battery.
3. Biohazard 7: very very fast, but.... buggie! Problem of restarting.
4. My favorite: SmoothieICS: fast, vary good battery (2 days using greenpower), and perfect games. Still in beta version.
Hope it help you!

HI,
is anyone using one of these roms?
download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=galaxysmtd
Why are these not listed in the development area here on xda, what is the difference?

Those are the Cyanogenmod ROMs, and they are listed in the dev section, look for threads started by pawtip. CM10.1 pre-release thread is on page one, CM10 thread is on page two at the time of my posting.

Thanks a lot!
I was confused as I couldn't find any references to the cyanogenmod.org site. On the dev page 1 there is the thread
[AOSP][ROM][4.2.1] JellyBean 4.2 PREVIEW (20121205)
wich is AOSP using cyanoges galaxy s tree, but, well, not cynogenmod...
And indeed, on page 2 there is
[NIGHTLY][ROM][4.1.2] CyanogenMod 10 for Samsung Galaxy S
The download link reveals cyanogenmod.org
Anyway, how is helly bean? Hasn't been mentioned, yet!?!
I am about to install this one, but have never tried it before, though.

Wait a few days - or if we are lucky a few hours - then I think pawitp will create what you (and more) are looking for! :good:

Helly Bean already is 4.2.1:
hellybean.com/I900042.html
But the majorety goes for CM instead of Helly Bean?
CM10
AOSP 4.2.1 (current)
above rom is awesome what I using.
hellybean and the devil kernel
there are also a 4.2 version which works great
Slim Bean is perfect for customizing..But not for performance i think..
The best combo is Elite's JB builds+latest semaphore kernel so far ..(I think).
But you can try it! I love Slim Bean just for tweaks ... The best one is "high end effects" for me
When you're scrolling not. drawer down,background's dim is channging... Gettin' dark just like Gnexus/Galaxy SIII or other devices which got offical JB !
Also an advice ;
If you wanna long lifetime battery best one is JW8 GB ROM
For me latest CM10 Nightly with Devil Kernel and maybe Lazeroid script works very smooth. No lags in GTA:VC on mid/high settings

Is CM10 better than SlimBean 3.1 in game? (Lazeroid and Semaphore)
for me the fastes is Beast rom 4.2.1 with linaro project + lazeroid 2.1 + semaphore kernel.
That's configuration and it is very smooth.

I prefer the SlimBean ROM 3.1. It is fast, smooth and the battery is also ok
CM 7.2.0 + ntsense cm7 theme + devil kernel = awesome look + battery life.

It really depends what you're looking for in a ROM. There are a lot of different ROMs that are currently available depending on what you want. Whether it's a stock feel (AOSP ROMs), customizability (AOKP, PA), CM10 of course, and more. I highly doubt anyone has tried all of the ROMs that are out there so go into the dev sections and do some reading and see what you like! :good:
Really too subjective of a question to ask. "Best" is the ROM that contains everything you're looking for.
The best custom ROM for me is CM 10.1's nightly builds. The best custom Kernel for me is franco.Kernel. Both together = awesome (for me)
Thanks guys . I realise its a subjective view but thanks for replying

Whatever ROM you choose, I second using Franco kernel :good:
I've been running a CM10.1 nightly with no custom kernel, its been pretty solid. I might have to check out Franco's kernel though, I'd like to try out undervolting for better battery life and heat at some point.

I've always understood this, but never really knew where to look. Is there some place that has a list of all the kernels and ROM projects and what their goals are. User reviews would be pretty handy as well.
As others have stated, this is very subjective. For example, I'd recommend AOKP. Not because it's the best per se, but because it's the one I'm using and I'm quite happy with it.

There is a list here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003731
But you will have to read up a little on each one for specific features, bugs, and user reviews. Many ROMs with lots of features sound great but in practice aren't the most stable. Most bugs get ironed out in time by our great dev's, but its something to consider. When in doubt, flash & check it out!
For the record I use schnip's AOSP ROM w/ Tablet UI + Franco.kernel = clean, fast ROM with tablet interface. Can't ask for much more.

Hey I was considering using this combo and I just wanted to know if the native OTG support still functions after you flash the franco.kernel?

I honestly couldn't tell you since I don't own an OTG cable but you can flash franco's kernel and test it. If it doesn't work just reflash the ROM (without wiping) and you'll revert to the original kernel without losing any of your apps and data.

What's so good about Franco.kernel?
I'm on AOKP with KTManta and have solid performance.

Seems to be by far the best kernel for dealing with the throttling issue that exists with our device so far...
Installed aokp . loving it.

At this point, I've gotta give it to AOKP. Lots of customizability and very smooth and quick. Rotating 180 degrees has no noticeable lag for me.
Paranoid Android is one of my all time favs in order to maximize your tablet space by altering app DPIs etc (not that you need to with a tablet this large). MMuzzy's ROM is a nice AOSP replacement which is what I'm on currently. As far as kernels go, it's really up to personal preference. I'm on KTManta (ktoonservative) and it flies though sometimes I get the lockscreen (black) of death - not waking up from lockscreen. I bought Franco's app ages ago before I got a tablet and can vouch that he also builds a strong/stable kernel.

Hi,
I wanted to ask a small question...
I'm currently on the stock ROM after trying out AOKP and PA once.
I realized I wanted to keep it as stock as possible, so I'm going for a ROM with greatest performance and minimal customization....
I know we are not supposed to ask a ROM vs ROM feature comparison, I can do that myself. So here's my question...
Which ROM will give me greatest performance? It can be regardless if the features it has, just can you tell me of any ROM with greatest performance?

I am sharing my fuzzy experiences
Well, I have tried some ROMs and Kernels for Nexus 4 in the Google Nexus 4 -> Nexus 4 Original Android Development and can shed some light on your query.
If you want performance, it just does not depend on ROM, but looking at your profile and thanks meter, I believe you already know that. It can depend on ROM, Kernel, Over Clocking etc. etc. and we can go on that all day on what is better and what is not.
I have found Xylon quite fast which gave me good Antutu Scores of ~19000 without over-clocking or any other kernel. To be honest, I did not perform extensive tests to try the performance but I find visually and functionally no difference in using a Cyanogen Mod Nightly which gave me around ~14000 Antutu score and Xylon which gave me ~19000. I am more of a feature enthusiast rather than performance. To answer your query in one line,
Stock with Trinity Kernel => ~18000 (No overclocking)
CyanogenmMod => ~14000
Xylon => ~19000
Antutu Scores and Sorry I haven't saved the screen shots of Stock with Trinity Kernel & Xylon but here is a screenshot of my CyanogenMod. So if you have to just believe me of my Xylon scores
I have calculated performance based on Antutu benchmark and that may not be ideal for your performance needs.

Hey guys,
Basically the missus is running the same phone as me, on ICS, she's been running some version of g.lewarnes kernel and ROM about 6 months now, after mass installs of crappy mini game apps and flavour of the week Facebook games, even a champion falls. She sometimes has to clear memory for the thing to load pictures, tried cutting down the garbage on ROM toolbox but it can't be rescued, its ready for a new combo.
Basically, I want something I can stick on there which is super stable, good on battery and mostly stock.
I'm hearing horror stories about the new official JB and although I'm running a really good LSZ leak in the bare bean ROM. It does the odd weird thing now and again which would freak her out.
I would consider introducing her to CM but only if its super stable, battery friendly and buttey smooth. All suggestions welcome!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
For CM: Asylum
For TW LSZ: Galactus Mod v. 1 with Speedmod v K5-1
ALL jb tw battery life isn't as good as ICS...and doesn't touch GB..
Just my opinion.
This is a "Which rom is best thread" and is kind of against XDA policy... I won't report it but I wouldn't be surprised if this thread gets closed...further, even if it was to stay open, it really should be in Q&A not general section

The best kernel is the one which you prefer over the others.There is no such thing as the better kernel. Try both of them and decide which one you like the best.Have a nice day
Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
Try all kernel. Certain kernel is good in one phone and others is bad. Vice versa.

Threads discussing which ROM/kernel is best are usually subjective and as such often devolve into bickering and flaming. Therefor we try to avoid them when possible.
Since kernels are required to be open source there usually isn't too much difference between them as far as battery life is concerned, but it's still a good idea to review recent posts in their thread to make sure there aren't a lot of people reporting bugs or anything. (just please don't ask about it in there, if you don't find any bug reports it's likely good )
Thread closed.
