OpenSource ROM

Hello,you all ready know that nobody is developing something good
for our X8.
I meant no overall progress and there is only one dev that can make progress in all three caregory:
1.Apps and framework
2.Libs,tweaks and performance
3.Kernel
Point of this rom is that there are 4 people making by each one covering each category + one (i ddont know how to call it) boss and he's mission is to listen users about ideas and collecting progress from others and intergrating it to rom.
Thread will have 4 posts first boss one then the others one so users for example can download wifi driver without downloading whole rom or waiting for it.
The only thing we need is people for each category + boss.
If any one want to contribute please PM me or post to this thread but first we need to see is this idea good by vooting on this poll.
Will work on this rom: sapabg (app/theme maker)

Well, the thing is that devs do what they want.It's up to them if they want this or not. The best thing is to wait for the reply of some devs

We can use FXP and/or CM71 sources for that?

Nice idea. If a single person can cook a nice rom. How about 4 or more of them joined force to produce a very stable rom.

sapabg added to list of interested people.

AChep is a good themer, maybe ask him if he wants to join?

That would be great.
But the devs would have to want to work on the same team.

AChep's themes are all too good! They are the only CM7 theme I use(for now).

[POLL] GingerDX v25 vs MiniCM V2.2.0

NOTE- This Poll is just for fun, to identify the users using which of the two roms above.
This is a POLL between GingerDX v025 by B.Jay and eagleeyetom and MiniCM7-2.2.0 by nobodyAtall

May I asked what is the purpose of this?
As said many times by people. You cannot really compare each rom from your perspective. We have same device but really different experiences. Those we would scrutinize the two ROMS, you cant hardly compare it, mainly there base is different.
I dont wanna be rude, but each time dev's release a ROM here comes the repeated polls and comparison.

same device but different...
same ROM but different..

This is a poll for determining the number of users using a rom. This is not based on any comparison of the two roms or the one which is better.

And what are you going to do with the figures when people answer the poll? Is it a feasibility study or a research? If that so I will ask people to help you

yup, + 1 to that.
Not to mention that you cannot compare one that has stock kernel support, and one that is customized for a diferent kernel.
...but we live in this society where EVERYTHING gets to be exploited in the end (consumer - based I guess would be the term, right?) ...so, based on hard work of others, some guy puts a cover on it and sells it with profit. (in this case being...what?....the thanks he would get at the end of the day? no idea how that would be an asset....)
Luckily, this section is not the Dev. section....

Ya you are right, my main purpose of this poll is to do a study of the both of the roms developed by our great DX and nobodyAtall.

no choice for me, as i am with MiniCM+Alfs

well, MiniCM+nAa works perfect for me...
but i will give GDX a try...

Both Tom's are unique in.their own respect

Well if u have 2 x8 u can flash gdx and minicm on each x8 and compare it for yourself to study it right..coz each people have their own like and dislike of those ROM..
These kind of poll will only break the devs heart for sure
Sent from my X8 using Tapatalk

for me, GingerDX+stock kernel is the most stable, GingerDX+alfs for me sucks, very unstable, MiniCM7+nAa is pretty stable( i have it from 2 days and i don't found any bugs) and it gives the best performance from your device.

Kind of a stupid thread but, GDX and the MiniCM have the CM 7.2 RC1 soo they are kinda the same, but i choose the MiniCm.

I am on GingerDX with stock kernel and modules

No this thread is not stupid,and not disrespecting anyone work.and yes,these are the two best working roms for x8,with the same core,and should be compared.why shouldn't we compare the two roms and choose the winner?every rom uses another kernel,but kernels are not so different also.there is nothing bad about comparing.

[Q] Which is the most stable/bug free? JB vs JB

Hello everyone,
As you know there are different versions of JB ROM, from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2, but which is the most stable/bug free?
I'm making that question because I'm on 4.0.4 and my system is going to make heavy for many reasons, so I want to upgrade to JB if possible.
I never tried carefully any JB ROM therefore I can't take a judgment, but from comments and changelogs 4.1.2 seems the most stable JB ROM right now.
I always flashed and tested different ROMs everyday, but now I'm tired to flash all the time and I want a daily use one.
What are the common bugs that I've to expect from a JB ROM? And, what's your opinion about the topic?
NOTE: To keep clear and useful this thread don't give just general considerations
but indicate the differences from other ROMs that you tested so we can have an idea of your conception of benefits* and specify:
ROM Thread
Boot Loader
Type of installation (NAND, NativeSD, DataOnEXT)
* If you say your car is powerful, it doesn't mean anything, but if you say your car is more powerful than Fiat 500, then we can understand your meaning of Power

You shouldn't ask people to compare roms, it is a do-it-yourself kind of thing. Everyone has different experiences with the same rom. It is always about tastes.
And I think is against the rules here. Not sure, wont search. Lol.

That is what happens when you ask what is the 'best, most stable, fastest' rom.
If you want to know the difference, there is an app for that! I mean .. there is .. the ... CHANGELOG. There, you can see what the ROM is based on, what's been added and what's been removed. Compare changelogs to know the difference.

why are people that post threads like this not banned from xda for about a year

Yes, but I'm not talking about a pure user experience, but related to bug level of the ROMs and its daily usability. I read changelogs, but I want to know about people opinions, furthermore it's not strictly related to a specific ROM, but just to Android versions. Just to have an idea on how much are serious some bugs

That's why you are not an admin or moderator man , because on a Q&A forum, people are free to ask about anything (that's the reason why Q&A exist) and ask about others experience or opinion could be useful for someone who wants to take a decision, just that. So don't flame on my thread and be respectful!

Actually, he's right. These kinds of threads are hated. In Q&A, you are free to ask about anything as long as you follow the rules. Now, have you even read the rules? I'd say no, you haven't.
The very first rule on xda says "Search before posting", if you had searched about the most stable version/ROM, you would have come across numerous threads where people are flamed (just like you) for posting this, you will also know that no matter what your reason is, you should not ask about the 'most stable, fastest, best'. Because what you might think is bugless, others might think it is not. What you may like and think is stable, others might think otherwise.
I agree, he shouldn't have flamed, but again, you shouldn't have posted this thread in the first place.

I read and respected the rule of XDA, in fact I know there are several threads about "stable, best, fastest..." but those were too general discussions, I'm just asking about JB because we can state JB is really young but is the most updated version of Android, so I think it's important to have a point of reference on which version of JB could be declared stable as we can do with Gingerbread 2.3.7.
IMHO 4.1.2 seems to be the most stable, and I wanted to have an opinion from others just that.
AND... I can accept your way to say things, because I can understand and follow your advice... BUT I can't accept the way Kameirus answered my post, he was very and unrespectful about me. And the respect must be granted regardless of the XDA's rules!
In addition, I specified in the OP's note, it's important to indicate a point of comparison, to understand the meaning of each judgment, in this way we can get a more objective comparisons. If you say a ROM is more stable than another one, specifying the reasons why you think that we can reduce the subjective factors.
Now, if someone would share his experience I'll read very willingly, otherwise this thread will bump down without any war or flame

Instead of typing all of this u could have told him ROMs u tried. I recommend the pacman rom

Well as I just said I used JB not very carefully, because I'm on NativeSD that is really great, but it share the same fat32 partition so Android folders and app folders are the same for each ROM that you install on it. I think it could gives problems.
I tried a bit the Pacman ROM and it has really nice features, as I already said Android 4.1.2 seems to be more stable than 4.2.2. Or now we can say 4.2.2 is stable as 4.1.2?
Also, I had a good feeling with JellyTime (4.1.2) but it seems not supported a lot from the developer. I would install it for heavy use but I don't want change ROM if problems comes up.
Do you think Pacman could be stated as daily usable? What are its defects? I see it's WIP yet and there's no BUG log on the OPs

Please stop to flame here and learn how to speak with people, because respect is always a due!
Though, if respect is earned your answer was disrespectful without knowing who I was.
I don't know what's your culture, but mine stipulates that people who are not known, must be respected!

There is no such thing as the best ROM.
Thread closed.

Which rom do you use?

I thought i'd do this post as a way to see what rom you the consumer are using and to find out why you like using it and maybe what you dislike about it.
This will hopefully help the newcomers or indecisive make an informative decision. I thought this may be helpful as people have to scroll through the multiple pages of each particular rom to find problems with said rom, hopefully all the information will be here for people to make a choice of their own.
A note to the mods, this is not a which rom is the best rom thread, this a merely a thread detailing what features of particular roms people may like/dislike and as is states above help the members of this forum make an informative decision based on the experiences of other users. Please don't delete.

Wanamlite 6.7
I use Wanamlite 6.7 based off version 4.2.1. I like using this rom as it seems to be pretty quick with no lag, I love the sound tweaks with boeffla sound and the combination of stweaks for the little tinkering bits.
However I don't like the standard samsung theme, personal opinion is that it's ugly but I did use dreamtheme to correct this to my liking

You don't get it, do you?
Let's say person 1 uses WanamLite because that gives him the best experience and he recommends it. Then person 2 comes along and flashes WanamLite and has nothing but horrible experiences and it doesn't work for him at all.
This is something that's too personal to ever make a thread about, hence it's better locked.

Hi Guys,
By asking the question I in no way mean to be disrespectful toward the developers. On the contrary am in awe and in great admiration of them. And when possible have even contributed to "buying them a few beers" .
I merely ask the question coz I would want to install a stable and good performing ROM in the my phone. I could ofcourse download each one and test them out but isn't it the very point of having a forum such as this to help fellow ROM users choose the best and get the best out of their phone.
As regards comparisons I think the developers should not be too sensitive as comparisons are a review of their work and if they have put out ROMs in a public forum for the use of the public then feedback and review should be welcomed. Nothing wrong in pointing out if a certain ROM functions better than another in certain aspects. I have seen many posts that say that a certain kernel provides better performance or battery life compared to another and I dont ever see any criticisms of such comparisons but when it comes to asking or giving the same kind of comments bout a ROM we see people get really touchy on the subject. I dont think saying a particular ROM functions better than another is in anyway being disrespectful or be-belittling the work done by them.

There are 3 roms out there of 4.3 leak MI6,MJ2,MJ5..
I tried 2 of them MI6 and MJ2
MI6 has 2 main bugs i.e keyboard swype doesn't work and google acc dissappearing bug after every boot but MI6 has best battery I had after 4.1.1 roms.
MJ2 is newer and has some bug fixes mentioned above but its battery life for me is less than MI6.
so my vote goes to MI6 though now I am on dr.ketan v3 rom which is mix of all these 3 roms and thinking to switch to MJ5 to test it...
and one more thing MJ2 and MJ5 have knox bootloader so better first read every instruction before doing anything...

This MJ5 is stable and free of Knox

I've played about with a couple of roms now and must say I'm very very impressed with the dirty unicorns unofficial 4.3.1 for the note 2 LTE, very fast, stable, and great battery life.

Well you're wrong.
These types of threads, ie "what is best" or "What is most stable" threads are not allowed because they are just opinions and best/stable are subjective.
If you want to answer these questions you need to try some roms and do it yourself.
