Hello guys whats the best ics u have used so far on your sgs2 i9100???
Gingerbread rom kernel combo also appreciated!!
GB Roms I like RevoHD 6 + Siyah kernel.
For ICS, I've been using The latest Foxhound + Stock kernel, only cause CM9 doesn't have working video yet, if video isn't a priority i'd go with CM9 for sure.
thebyani rom v3.2
All leaked ICS Roms based not worked to me for everyday use, I had bootloops, hans, freezes there and here... A little annoying. I would suggest CheckROM v6 based en XWLA4, its the best rom i've used!
Without any hesitation, I'd say Thebyani v3.2
It works like a charm, no lag/FC at all and great battery life ! All the bugs I met with other roms are fixed in this one. Give it a try !
I can't really say anything about ICS roms as the ones that I did test were still very buggy and not stable at all
But I have had my share of GB roms.
Started with Hydroxigen but couldn't get my keyboard to appear (I was a flashing n00b back then )
So I went to GingerMod v0.8, this rom was REALLY good for me. It was very fast, stable and in combination with Speedmod kernel a real battery-saver
Only thing I didn't like was that the Gingermod updates didn't work for me. I could download them and it would reboot into recovery and install them but I never noticed any difference.
Then I went to Checkrom RevoHD V6 together with Redpill and the Magic UV config (adapted to my own device obviously ) and I am still using this to this day. The Kitchen app works like a charm and I even have my Azerty samsung keyboard I really hated the AOSP gingerbread keyboard! No .com button?! Special characters and smileys on different locations? Yurg!
So my current and favourite Rom/kernel combo is: Checkrom RevoHD v6 + Redpill kernel
If you want the best GB stock for battery life and not cluttered up with all kinds of useless mods, then go with VillainRom 3.0 and siyah kernel.
If FM radio and video recording aren't important then CM9 rocks. All these people who complain of reboots fc's etc. haven't flashed it correctly
Best bet is to nandroid and then try them all, feed that addiction baby...................
I'm using official ICS beta (rooted) XXLPB as my daily driver since it was released. It works great, not bugs/hangs or any other crap.
Using Phone, Mobile Data, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and Camera on a daily basis with no issues at all.

Resurrection Remix ics v9.4 black edition XXLPH 4.0.3
Omega ics latest base from samy
Guys could u also post your quadrant highscores (images appreciated)!!!
CM9 Nightly. best rom I had to use.
I use AndyX ROM 6.0 (based on XXLPH). It works perfectly, meaning no forcecloses and features like wifi, 2G/3G, camera, video etc. are all working.
Plus it has some nice visual additions, such as blue icons in notification bar and a nice shutter-like effect when the screen turns off.
I can only recommend it

Sorry, we don't allow "What's the best ROM" threads in this forum because we get several every single day.
Flash one and try them for yourself and then comment in that ROM's thread about your experience.

I wouldn't bet on the stability of Aurora ICS, at least in it's current state.
It's more up to date, yes, I agree with that but the deal is that you have to decide between the stability and feature set.

CM 7.2 by ezet for sure. Eliterom x1 .32 kernel is a close second for me. Annoying that doesn't have market built in though. Easy to fix, but annoying.
Hi!
I use aurora ICS 4.0.3 version 2.4 by DZO as my everyday rom, is very stable, and is updated very frequently, it was some minor bugs, but IMHO it works better than any official rom.

Best rom? Look at my sig!

I use ICS now. But VPN does not working. I am onlyone who needs VPN?
SIP VoIP (I need it) is very problematic in Aurora. Integrated VoIP in ICS does not work. CSipSimple and Siproid does not work. All registers. All make/receive calls. But voice is not transfered. After few seconds CSipSimple transfer huge amount of data via WiFI (and voice not transfered)
Only Linphone Video works. But sound quality is very bad. I test Aurora 1.12a, 2.02, 2.04. Always make full wipe (factory reset, dalvik cache, ...).
I use Linphone Video now but the quality is terrible.
Skype works in Aurora perfectly but I need SIP.
All tested SIP programs works in official ROM but not in Aurora. I am the only one who needs make VoIP (SIP) over WiFi? Aurora is very good ROM. Thanks DZO. But official rom seems better if you need SIP calls.
I have tried to install Gingerbread Rom with no luck. Aurora doesn't work as it should since I didn't have gingerbread. So I think I'd just go for another customrom on that U8800. Any tips for a stable Rom that works without Gingerbread needed?

Reflash stock b136 rom first, then flash miui and You'll be okay This is absolutely the best .32 based Gingerbread rom I've tried to this phone. Even wifitether is working.

This question is meaningless.... everyone has their own favorite ROM
You have to test few, and choose one that is best for you

I get your point,but why reinvent the wheel? A lot of roms are very unstable and keeps locking up. That's why I am asking what roms are stable,no hard feelings....

Stable wise - I was using Team Nyx ICS RC5 and it was quite a good ICS rom. I am now trying TAJB V7.1, which is pretty good but has some annoying bugs still it seems, so my recommendation is to upgrade to ICS if you want the stability. I think the JB roms are better on battery though compared to ICS.

If you want a stable ROM, you might want to try CM9 (ICS):

If you want the latest JB, you might want to try CM10 Alpha:

There are specific installation guides in both threads.
You can try TiramiSlim v2.0. Probably one of the best ICS ROMs.

Go with a stock ROM for your requirements. JW8 is very fluid.

Try a solid ICS ROM like Slim ICS 4.2. I never had less problems and I tried a lot.
Cant really recommend cm roms..
Try cm9 with devil3 kernel. Very stable and fast. And there is a offical stable version available now! The devil-kernel increases battery live and performance.

Generally on GB Roms everything should run, because it was released official.
On the other hand ICS runs faster and I have no problems so far.

Hey man definitley reccomend had absolutley no issues with it literally never encounted a problem
I think CM9 Blueberry is pretty good for daily use. :good:

Hi guys,
i know that Thread is kind of lazy but my girlfriends Galaxy S1 (Stock 2.3 ROM not rooted) is soooo damn slow and i wanna help her with a new ROM,Kernel etc...
Myself is using the newest ICS Release on my HTC Desire but i readed and informed me everyday for best performance.
At the HTC Desire topic im very well-informed but the Samsung topic is extremly new for me...so only thing i did : Stock 2.2 to Stock 2.3
(Kies is bull**** xD ?!?!)
I would like to root my girlfriends Droid but i dont know which ROM or Kernel should i chose...there are sooo much.
Because of that...guys: Whats the best, smoothest and especially stable ROM (especially for girls^^) whatever Gingerbread or ICS...i think JB is not smooth enough like on Desire :/ (too much issues etc)
It would be pretty if someone could help me so that i can boost the performance of my girlfriends phone on the best and stable way.
THX
Try stock android 2.3.6 ZSJW4. Root it with CF Root and she will be fine. Very stable and smooth with no bugs. Yoy can find it on Sammobile.com
For Gingerbread I recommend the Samsung stock roms, which are pretty stable.
See this thread for official GB firmwares from Samsung (includes also a guide for flashing stock roms with Odin).
See this thread for CF-Root, a basic rooted kernel for stock GB roms (it's the stock kernel with added su binary, SuperUser app and CWM recovery).
See this thread for Semaphore, an extended kernel for stock GB roms.
I only tried Cyanogenmod 9 as ICS rom so I can't recommend any other ICS rom, but CM9 is pretty stable (I'm using RC2 atm and have no big problems). To install CM9 or other ICS based roms, you need to install CF-Root or Semaphore first (through Odin), to get CWM recovery.
thx guys, but
@ c_codrut: i don't think that TouchWiz is a good choice...because its still boring and slowly
@stbenz: thanks for your informations, i will look at this. But im intrest about the CM9 Stuff on Galaxy S
I also use CM9 for my desire but its not officially supported...its an ROM from xda (DK-Zero) and its know very stable and without any big issues.
But i used it since 2012/04..and at this time it was very buggy...no mic no camera etc...for me no problem but for her xD not acceptable^^
But my problem is that myself can fix problems on my device and can live with it...but i dont want that my girlfriend need help with every update or something else...she should use the ROM as an almost stable and for daily-usable ROM.
I know that i should or could test it but its not my device and i couldn't walk all day with it^^ (hope you understand this )
It would be cool, if see could use ICS by CM or what about the AOKP ? (i missed that for my desire :/)
So best thing would be a almost stable ICS ROM....i/she dont need that Samsung UI i guess.
CM9 RC2 (from 2012-07-19) or the Nightly (from 2012-08-07) ?
or what about AOKP (Milestone 6) ?
cm9 + latest devil kernel :highfive:
AOKP milestone 6, semaphore 1.3.0s kernel. Fast, stable and she‘ll have unicorns.

Try Cm9 Rc2 very stable
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
With cm9 all hardware works except for fm radio. Some are reporting, that the latest nightlies are more stable than rc2, but thats most likely because bugfixes for bugs reported for rc2 are already merged to the nightlies. But I also think we are not far away from the next rc/final version, so if you don't want to flash too often, you could wait for the next rc/final version.

This guy knows what he is saying. Use CM9 RC2 and Devil Kernel and you got yourself a blazingly fast winner!
ok, guys THX!!!
i will start with CM9RC2...was my favorite anyway
And when i update the ROM ...does it works like on Desire (wiping cache and dalvik) installing newest RC or Nightly?
Or the Kernels needs often to be update?
Hey, I am using this ROM and I can only say it is extremely good, a real revelation after using Froyo and GB. I had some issues with CM9 but it was also great and superfast. i9000 with ICS is like a completely new phone!
Hope this helped a bit.

The kernel gets flashed every time you install an update, so if you have an alternative kernel, you have to flash it again every time you flash a new CM9 version. You also have to flash gapps after every update.
Girls will like MIUI ROM. Its beautiful and have custom theme... try it out.

Hi guys...im back and finished my work
I rooted with Odin and hopefully with the correct Kernel.After that i made a NAND-Backup.
So i wiped everything and flashed CM9 RC2 and the Gapps...and everything was smooth and cool
But so far i didn't flashed the devilkernel yet...the CM-kernel seems ok.
So my question whats the Pros and Cons of the Devil-kernel compared to the CM-builtin-Kernel?
I think batterylife is important than extreme power and high batteryloss, i guess for her ^^
BTW: To make CM more female, i installed a pink theme and a pink clock widget for my girlfriend, she's happy now
And again guys...THANKS...it was very interesting to flash and root an other device (brand) and i saw the differences, Pros and Cons!
In my opinion Rooting on desire was easier and not needed as much informations and readings ^^
I hope she get no big problems but i not averse to work on her device too^^
And im jealous that her ROM runs so stable...on Desire its also stable but the Videocam doesnt work ...damn :crying: (very choppy)
But there isn't a official CMsupport or 100% HWA
i don't know about the devils kernel, but i can definitely recommend the ICS semaphore kernel http://forum. xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468795
just remove the spaces.
using the smartassV2 govenor, etc, my phone's battery lasts about a day longer than it did on the cm9 kernel
Ok, i also use this governor on my desire and an extra sleep state governor
...the smartass v2 rocks !!!!

woooow nice THX...but lol...i finished my work 2 days before xD
So is it possible to flash the stable Version over the RC2?without any negative aspects?!
The update process is like desire? wiping Cache and dalvik an flash the New Version?
Sry for these noob question but i want a good running system for my girl and cannot test the system many days like on my device

You just flash the stable over RC2, flash the google apps, and that's it. No need to wipe anything. If in doubt, make a nandroid backup before flashing.
Hi, my question is if it worth flash CM9/10 based roms on our lowend device. If it is smooth and bugless as CM7 ROMs. I tried CM9 long time ego but it was horrible so I'm asking now.
Thanks
If your concern is stability, CM is much more stable than when it sounds like you last tried it. Some nightlies might be better than others, but I personally would not hesitate to daily-drive CM10 at this point.

Odp: Is it worth to flash CM9/10 based ROMs on our X8?
Worthy or not worthy. It's the matter of personal taste.
