So I have been rooted on stock for a while now and want to flash a rom. I have a few that I fancy but wanted to know what you guys are using. I really want to map my HTC button as well.

For stock experience you could go for ARHD or Trickdroid mate.
For AOSP you could try rootbox or AOKP.

Tried all available Roms and stuck with ARHD. It's stock experience but a little snappier. The AOSP /AOKP Builds from my opinion do have to much problems still as the battery life is not what I expect from the phone. Also I don't want to miss ZOE
Cheers guys is the tbalden kernel compatible with ARHD? Really want the HTC logo mod
Use Trickdroid is fast, with tweaks and themes.
Using the OrDroid and ElementalX kernel.
Please just try the ROMs for yourself and read the threads.

I don't feel like downloading 10 Roms to test this out so I will accept and trust my fellow Xda members! Been using Cm7 based roms as my daily drivers but wanted to try a sense rom for once that doesn't feel like stock.

If you are looking for most stable and fully functioning rom I recommend virtuous unity 2.39. I also have a stock mysense debloated rom that is pretty much gingerbread stock. They both have decent battery life.

I guess I missed a "'s" in my sentence sorry I meant a Rom that doesn't feel like sense. Either themed or has alot of tweaks.

I'm using Mexdroid now, but wants to go back to sense to try the Amaze camera Tez posted.

Are you trying to screw yourself over? Jk but seriously, why would you want to go to a sense rom and have it have lots of tweaks, sense is slow enough already. What you should do is stay on CM7 or RoyalGinger and download one of the themes found in the themes section. If your bent on a sense rom, try using Infernosense, i haven't tried it yet but it looks really good. I myself use the DARKSIDE sense which is basically stock sense 3.5
If you want themed, HoneySmartDroid is definitely the way to go. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513894
Tweaks, go for RCMix 3D. The thread was deleted though....-_-
I ended up going to HoneySmartDroid and flashed the DD camera for now this will do till we get ICS fully functional

After years of looking up info here, I'm finally posting some feedback!
I've tried about 12 roms so far, and the best Sense rom out there, in my opinion, is Darkside Runny 2.2.
Let me know if you're looking for specific features/tweaks. I keep trying other roms, but have always reverted back to this one. I would recommend that format/partition your sdcard with the 3 recommended partitions (storage, ext4, swap file). Mine runs verrrrry smoothly...
Thanks Chicago T gonna try that Rom and see how it goes besides the Stock Sense rom I never tried Sense always had Cyanogen based roms so time for something new.
Hello guys, I'm looking for the fastest kernel+ROM combination for this phone (i9000). Would be awesome if it was with android 4.1.2 (at least)

There is no fastest Rom and kernel. You have to find what suits for you.

Best rom+kernel is GamerzROM Legend Edition v3.0 (Android 4.2.2) with Semaphore Kernel 2.9.25s . PM me if you need a download link for the ROM.

AOSP Super Nexus ROM 2.0 BIULD 4 + Mackay Kernel 0.318 is the best and fastest combination for your I9000...I am using it right now and no problems so far with this kernel you get 396MB of RAM and purest and closest to stock Android ROM...That's all from me the choice is yours now...
Could you link it?

go to http://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd and pick RC4 build or later. It'll probably not dissapoint. There's helly bean which I've been using before, but it hasn't been updated since 130426 I think, and it's really disappointing compared to cm 10.1 RC4.
Other than that, I guess the last cm9 is pretty good and cm7 but it's old now. If you decide to go with some kind of stock rom, particularily value pack. Try hardcore's last speedmod kernel for sgs. It's THE best kernel I've used with the phone regarding speed/stability.
It's a pity hardcore doesn't make cm kernels.
Personally
My selection: Fastest, stable, .... ¿but? battery eater: GamerzROM Legend Edition v3.0 (semaphore Updated). Promising one, with good battery live SuperNexus 2.0 - I9000 - Milestone 1. Battery live and goof performance: SAURON (GB). C-RoM Mix good other to try. And maybe you like Slim Bean. Test and decide..
For me Infamous AOKP with semaphore has been good
Thanks bro atm i'm trying the gamerzROM. Its quite good but as u said battery eater.. Ill try the rest later( there are still some game to test)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
are you aware that gamerzROM / SuperNexus / AOKP are all the same with few diff PNG's in few system apk's and all are still based on CYANOGEN ?
so best you can do is use CM latest nightlies (from it comes your beta rom versions) in combination with some kernel that You like
so none of those got better battery life or better perrformance - the only diff betwen them is the kernel.
remember CM is the base and then comes someone calling himelf a dev like faryab and copy pastes cm and aokp features,
depending on complication of that he might screw it or leave it ok as it was in CM or AOKP
then adds some kernel stolen from another devs and there you go a ROM
more features it incorporates (kernel) the worse - belive me ...
and stock 2.3.6 is still more stable lacks only jb look but thats i9000 for **** sake ...
i really like semaphore with slimbean
good for you, semaphore is good kernel maker and as for themes i like stock look
What's the difference between nightlies and simple cyanogen? Do you know? And u say then that i should simply take back my cm10.1 with semaphore?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
nightlies introduce new functions, bugfixes first but also might be unstable or even introduce faulty update packages leading to a softbrick (had such situations once)
normal are tested and marked as stable, daily use (bs)
And u sure that cm is compatible with semaphore? Or do u know any faster kernel for i9000?

This is just a poll thread to see the 'marketshare' of S2 ROMs in the community. And maybe tell us the reason why you're using that particular ROM.
Note that this is not a poll asking which one is the best.
I use hassan rom v5.0(cuz i like stock features) and rootbox nightly (cuz i like nexus look) dualbooting with dorimanx 8.35

I use Resurrection Remix 4.0.3 (JellyBean 4.2.2) with KangBang 1.3 kernel and i've just found the perfect combination. I come from a pure CyanogenMod 10.1 with original kernel, it's good but a terrible battery life compared to RR + KB.
RR has tons of features like Halo, per app dpi changer and many other settings useful to customize the phone.

Maybe list more than just one stock based (NeatROM) rom? Otherwise you're gonna get a lot of "Other" replies.

Omega
Hello!
I'm using Omega roms for a long time. Reason: You have all features in one rom without additional flashing (ripple, ink, back to kill, call record, scrollable wallpaper etc.), it is stock based rom with lot of customization, latest version has nice memory management (all time about 300 MB of RAM free), with aroma you can choose default apps, and its fast
P.S. I voted for Others, but if possible, add Omega to poll
I am using Omega because it's just cool for users who love stock UI with more features.

This is gonna become a better ROM thread, I guarantee it.
If johnny closed "post the rom you're on and the reason for it" he will close this one as well.
I advice you to replace "marketshare" for "popular" in the OP (we don't market nada here).
And make a list of ROMs and update the scores regularly, that'll get you off the hook.
Sent from...this is not even my S2
I am using the latest version of neatrom, with a few extra mods from Aprilia's site. Smooth, sleek, and fully functional. It looks good and gets great battery life too with the latest dorimanx or apolo kernel.
Thread closed as effectively it is a best ROM thread... ROM with highest votes will be labelled as the best ROM.
Oh, and sending out "Thanks" to everyone participating isn't exactly a good idea.
Or is their stable kernels or roms already? Also what exactly is the benefits of roms? Never tried it before only kernels
Roms just give you more features and on 4.2 I used custom kernels because of bad battery life but stock 4.3 kernel is awesome in my opinion. I'm running cn10.2 unofficial because I like extra features (quick toggles,etc). Stock is a very good choice if you don't care about that stuff

Nope.
Stock/stock. Only rooted. After trying ARHD, InsertCoin, Elegancia and GPE, I returned (with relief) to pure stock Sense 4.3.
GPE stock rom with elementalx kernel and using art
It is pretty damn fast and smooth.
