Hello,
I own an Epic4g rooted/rommed/themed and my friend with a Hero is jealous and wants me to give his phone similar treatment. I'm sure this discussion has been beat to death but I wondering if you guys could recommend the best Hero ROMs that are out right now.
We're looking for -Speed -Stability -Battery Life. I don't want him calling me every other day because his phone is glitching. Any ROM/kernel combos that will fit the bill?
Thanks,

AOSP 2.2
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I agree. I personaly have the Nightly installed, but for what you asked for, AOSP will do.
Forgive me. From referencing the wiki page I'm finding AOSPmod 2.2. Is this not "true" AOSP or am I looking in the wrong place?
Thanks so much.
Look in the development section, its aosp's rom that was last finished in december (i believe). Its fast, small, and very stable. It was the last rom I had on my hero, and it was the best I had used.

Thank you guys for being so cool.. i have been reading other forums.. and anytime.. noobs ask questions like these.. they get slammed... Anyhoo.. Thank you.
which i think is dumb, everyone started out from ground zero.
and they didnt get any where with out asking questions either. so dont think one moment
not to ask, but do research as well. that helped me a ton
oh.. i use search functions to death... ok.. and maybe i should be a lil more specific.. also.. is there a 2.2 rom with sense that is stable? i am on 2.1 damage control 1.0(bought it this way) it is fast and the sense stuff works great.. but.. i would like some of the newer sense apps.. like friendstream.. also i keep getting error 67.. also i am flashed to cricket.. i have been told changing roms wont mess with carrier settings.. ughh.. i hate being a noob..
If this were IOS or Xbox or Wii modding.. I know a Ton.. but am Very new to android modding.. Loving my hero tho... i know it is a little slow.. but .. it is a Cool phone..
Thank you for any help...
there is one that is close to what you want go to the dev section it is by PMGRANDS great rom in my opinion
Sense is within our reach!!! It has already been ported to Galaxy S i9000 and Samsung Captivate..Us Vibrant owners need ALL the help we can get!! Hell who doesn't want sense on their Vibrant?!?!
I Have been talking to the dev over on that board about porting to the Vibrant, here is what he said:
chiledog said:
Sorry dude, but based on my captivate porting experience, unless a vibrant dev comes forward to make a port. It was just too time consuming and it was taking too much precious time away from the main projects to continue.
I'm not saying we won't eventually make ports for the other devices but you won't see a vibrant port from us in the near future.
By all means get the vibrant devs interested and tell them to pm me and I can tell them everything they need to know to get started but they will need to know how to build cm7, edit the initramfs, and obviously read logcats, dmesg etc.
A linux box is also a must obviously but anyone building cm7 would already know that.
If you have linux installed and you can sucessfully sync with teamhacksung and build cm7 with the kernel you can port this.

No. I think they're using the new radio partitioning in .6, so it needs a new kernel.
Sense is really nice. I didn't even know it was ported to the captivate, sure do hope any of the Great devs can work on this.

one question
i have a question. do you want a port of just all the apps to look like a sense. i mean you can make a 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 all look a sense with all the new sense apps and such but it depends on what you want. if you want the sense gingerbread than thats alot more work. there are alot of options, but you gotta realize that the new sense works off of hardware not found in most phones. sooooo you gotta take that into consideration. but i will look at the 19000 port and see what they changed. im finally gonna start making roms, kinda gettin tired of making my own and not posting them. give me a couple of days and you will have it. but i dont know if i want it 2.3 since theres no gps i dont want it. if you have suggestions i will think about it, and maybe port it. but i wont develop if theres no requests.
edit: please pm me with requests
edit: alot of people dont realize but when a port is brought over its not all the system files that they transfer, all samsung vibrant files are used, so thats why i made a post like this. devs dont create everything themselves and make things work, they keep old files and add stuff to make it like another phone. hence the reason why all roms have a certain base. blah blah blah, sorry been drinking and tired of randomness of roms. pm me if you want this ported the way i do it, which means, framework-apps-some system files into one rom.
Wow, i would love to have Sense on my Vibrant. Hope that someone start working on this...
Would really really be nice, I have two vibrants... one MIUI Thanks Segnaro and I would put Sense on the other one which is currently stock...

Indeed. The devs here are making a great effort to maintain this device alive, and we all appreciate it! Thanks!
Hi Guys
been out of the scene for some time. ive been a member since the palm treo era. been so busy at work and was sunk into the iphone world. and im tired of the cat and mouse chase regarding the unlock and jailbreak scene. recently, i just fell in love with the SGS2. just ordered the white unlocked version from a UK source. been doin some reading recently bout rooting and mods.
i believe it comes with ginger bread rom and looking around youtube, it seems to be a nice rom. but maybe in the future i would eventually root it and install a custom rom. ( any suggestions?...) any one running the ICS?
oh well im just excited im getting a bad ass phone!

Welcome back
Don't think you have to wait long for an official Samsung ICS, but if you can't wait take a look at this:
http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entry/New-Android-4-0-3-ROM-leak-by-Samsung-for-Galaxy-S-II-I9100XXLP2-Download-Screenshots-Video-
Welcome on "our side". ;-)
As for the roms, well, here is a quick-start-guide:
1. Full TouchWiz-based ROM's like lightning and checkrom.
2. TouchWiz-based ROM's with less preinstalled apps like gingermod.
3. CyanogenMod 7 for gingerbread and 9 for ice cream sandwich
4. MIUI for a totally redefined UI.
I had them all and liked them all. There were just some that I liked more than others, and before I give you a biased tip, I'd say that you should try all out by yourself.
Installing custom-roms is a piece of cake on that device.
Have fun!

Welcome,
You'll love the phone it's a nice bit of kit.
User above has explained the rom side ill explain the kernel side,
Most basic stock, intratechs thread all stock roms and kernel odexed versions.
Looking to root or maintain a stock kernel with root, busybox etc CF Root by Chainfire.
Looking for a stock like kernel, with tweaks and good performance and battery checkout SpeedMod or Phenomenal which is based on Speedmod.
If you like tinkering with kernels then Phoenix, NEAK and SiyahKernel all very popular and can adjust them in many ways for your liking.
Most of all enjoy, you'll soon start flashing and testing out various things.

thanks guys! just found out that my phone was dispatched already by DHL hopefully ill get it in 3days from UK to US.
just also ordered a DL jig on ebay just incase i need it to restore to factory for warranty purposes.
thanks sniper for that list. would definitely try it and see what suits my taste.
nice one nikz - as far as these kernels, are they all compatible with the roms that sniper listed?
thanks again!
It depends on the kernel.
I doubt any of them is compatible to CyanogenMod 9.
The Siyah-kernel is compare to all other tho.

Only official kernels work with any ics rom. No custom kernels until kernel source is released by Sammy.
As for rom/kernel combos, I got the best battery out of cm7+siyah kernel after undervolting and stuff. Cm9 is just too good to pass up. Still getting a full day, but not 20ish hours heavy use like I did with cm7.
As far as I know all gb kernels work for all gb roms, but I would check each one. The difference is Samsung based or cm7 based(miui)

Juzt make sure it is i9100 or i9100g or other variant so you can flash the correct roms etc. And most of all welcome back and enjoy your freedom in an open community and always search before posting ;-)

Hi all,
I am the developer of SentinelROM, which is one of the most popular ROMs for Nexus 10, Nexus 7, Nexus 4 and HTC One X.
SentinelROM is compiled by me with modified CyanogenMod 10.1 code (additional tweaks for performance and battery life, as well as some theming). So far the ROM has been very successful.
I've decided to release the ROM for Samsung Galaxy SIII (i9300) also, but I need your help as I don't own a SGSIII to test with.
I am reaching out to anyone who would be willing to flash my test ROM and test a few things for me.
If you're interested, please PM me either here, or via the SentinelROM facebook page. I will reply with a download link and instructions.
I only need a few people for testing, so please don't be offended if I don't get back to you with a download link.
This ROM is for i9300 only at this stage, so please do not reply if you own an i9305 as the ROM will not work on your device.
Thanks in advance for your help.

You know I want to, but as you said on FB, probably not a good idea to do it on my wife's everyday phone
Everyone, this guy turns out a great ROM. I have Sentinel ROM on my Nexus 4 and it's very, VERY nice. I highly recommend it.
Thanks for the plug mate.
OP updated with a download link so you can get up and running right away.
Looking forward to some feedback so I can launch this ROM
Well i am installing this now will let you know how it goes..
Thanks heaps!
how did you go?
I wish I cud try it too. Any chance for us I9305 users to get this? Maybe later when it gets a good rep on i9300? I know you asked us users to not to reply but I cudnt resist asking

Well everything is working as normal. I played about with the rom it is pretty stable. Everything works, and when i fell asleep unlike cm the battery never drained maybe about 3 percent drain overnight which is great. So the battery life on this rom is excellent. You're good to go with your rom. Sorry for the late reply i installed this around midnight. Used the rom and till about 2am and fell asleep. I am still using it. I must say overall it is a great rom. Thank you very much. I've not yet found a fault but maybe i might find one but that would be cm related.
For a beta rom this is really stable. Onlything maybe it isn't a big problem now but in the ota updater lol it doesn't recognize the device as MO.
Beautiful!!!
I'll credit you in the OP. Thankyou very much!

sentinel rom v 4.5 for gt-i9300
Hello, Sentinel.
First of all I'd like to thank you for this truly amazing rom, there's so many things I can do with my phone and change almost everything I want to within it. I only found 1 issue which may not be an issue at all, I might still be a bit inexperienced with all this modding stuff, but I haven't found a way to overclock or undervolt my phone using your kernel, but I took a risk of using siyah kernel 1.9.1 which is said not to be compatible with 4.2.2 JB and basically all new roms that are out now, but the funny thing is IT DOES WORK! And I think that siyah 1.9.1 kernel and your custom sentinel rom is the best combo ever for my galaxy s3. The battery works great even when I overclock it, it's really stable and never glitching. I can say I'm a heavy consumer, wifi constantly on, and I'm playing psone games with and emulator alot and it still does a pretty decent job. On my next payday I'm definitely donating, buddy. And in a months time when s3 stock 4.2.2 JB will come out, I'd like to see what you can do with that one aswell.
Keep up the great work, best regards, Lietus.

Hi Lietus. I assume you posted this here because you can't post in the ROM thread, so I'll answer you here
My official position on over/underclocking and UV/OV is discussed on my website. Have a browse.
Sorry but it's not something I support in my ROMs. People are alwsys welcome to use other Kernels to unlock these features if they want them.
Looking forward to payday
Hey, this is my first post, you did a really good job with this rom!
Is there any way to disable the fullscreen keyboard feature?
I understand where you're coming from and I totally agree with you if we users want we can make it ourselves using different kernels especially when your ROM is that great and it accepts different types of kernels. And I've got 5 different types of android machines which could use some improvement so if you're interested and have the time to expand your ROMs through those it would be just awesome. Because your ROM is actually the first custom one I've tried, and after a lot of research I can't seem to trust myself with someone else's

Wait a few more hours. Almost all users here are based on the US or UK so you'll rarely see any high activity in this forum at between these times.
As for me sorry I'm a AOSP/CM super hater eversince I got my first android phone so no luck with me being a tester.

While I'm willing to contribute and beta test my AT&T device, I like the features Sense 5 brings to the table too much to give them up as my daily driver. I'm assuming from your other device ROMs that this will be AOSP/CM10.1 based which is very cool but I don't see myself running this ROM(or any other AOSP) for very long.
If you're still diggin' it, then I'll be glad to help as best I can.
