Rom Recomendation please - Galaxy S II General

Hey guys can anyone recomend me a nice 4.3.1 rom(or even 4.2.2) that its not PAC or SLIM(including SLIMSABER by fusionjack and SABERPAC by nico_60) ?. also from 4.4.2 roms no RR OMNI OR BEANSTALK, i cant get good battery life out of them, not even with apolo extreme v1 which gave me tons of hours on 4.3 and 4.2.
In case you wonder why not pac or slim here it is:
SLIM(Saber or not)(4.2 and 4.3) always gave me FC on Facebook and Whatsapp a few times a day, clean install rom nuke whatever you want makes no diference (even hardcorepawn and fusionjack didnt know what to do to help me after i send them my logcat)
PAC(saber or not)(only tried 4.3, maybe i should try 4.2 stable release) always gave me hot reboots, only one per day but its annoying.(stock kernel clean install rom nuke everthing, i even did a full format emmc just to be sure)
so please when you recomend please dont try to convince me slim or pac should work fine... i been flashing roms like crazy since gingerbread i know my ways on the S2 i9100. they re Amazing roms and i d love they work great on my phone, but they dont u.u
thanks a lot guys sorry for making this too long ahahah

I am a noob but I tried carbon v1.8 (based on 4.2.2) for 1 month plus. it's stable and battery is fine. maybe you can try?
I am using slimbean official now (based on 4.3.1) for also 1 month plus. I didn't encounter your problem. Is it hardware issue?

carbon v1.8 Great recomendation. I loved carbon 4.3.1 but they didnt correct the auto rotation bug they simply jumped onto 4.4.2. so 4.2 seems like a good idea thanks
I dont think its a hardware issue as it only happens on slim. i thinks simply its just my phone(maybe related to my country and my provider, as a friend of mine here in argentina has exactly the same issue) dont like something inside the rom ( although we all have a i9100, every phone its diferent).
gonna try Carbon 4.2 and PAC 4.2 keep recomendation comming guys

most welcome!
personally, I feel 4.2 is still more stable than the 4.3 roms out there. post your results after trying! :fingers-crossed:

[q] miui 2.5.25

Hi guys,
Does anyone still have this version of miui by Will5 on his hard drive? I can't download it from will5 thread.
It would be much appreciated.
Cheers
I know it doesn't help your problem much, but have you tried CM10.2 yet? It is such a better ROM in every way than any other I've used on my trusty MS2, Will5's MIUI included.
Thanks, but I actually use cm10.1 by Tezet. It's the most stable and smooth (after some optimizations such as disabling a lot of apps in hwa acceleration) for me. Everytime I try cm10.2 from czeshop or englemars I meet some problems like with bluetooth ad2p, some reboots or hangs... they are not enough finalized IMHO. Now I put all my hopes in kitkat
Anyway, going back to topic, I wanted to find this version of MIUI for my other MM2 to check the difference of performance between this good old miui that I really enjoyed back then and CM10.1. But I am afraid that no one hes this version of MIUI on their hard drive anymore
I finally manage to found that latest version of GB MIUI and it's such a pleasure to find it back. It's so much faster than any of the other roms I have tried. I've been on tezet's CM10 for almost a year, but going back to this miui rom makes my phone ultrasnappy! I forgot that pressing the phone button could make the dialer appear in less than 3 seconds... same for SMS and almost everything in the phone!! You click, it appears, period. No waiting time.
I'll still follow the evolution of KitKat, but even kitkat (I've only tried Engle-Mars one) is not as fast and quick responding as this good old MIUI for the moment. I hope dev will manage to optimize them to that level of snappiness!
I would recommend using KitKat. For me it turned out a lot faster than the CM10.x versions :good:
I don't know about the Engle-Mars Version, but the one of Czechop still reboots on me once a day. Featurewise they are both already on par with Tezets last Rom(but faster).

[Q] RATE YOUR Fav CUSTOM lilipop ROM for (g900f) AND WHY?

hai guys,
Sorry I don’t want to hurt any developer feeling, it is just a poll to know, which the best ROM they like and why.
This pool is for lollipop ROM for G900F only.
thank you.
Note :-
Guys i have forgotten one more rom. Xtrestolite rom - seem a decent rom
i cant figure out to add to the poll
my vote is for S5 LOLLIPOP AMBASADII Rom
-simple installation, and easy to use,
-Best score
-6th Gear TWswipe,
hint of s6
, i tried mostly all rom.
-
only buy i see is wallpaper issue(only if i select wallpaper from home screen else we can select wallpaper). and it give massage updating every time i restart.
note:-
i would like someone to port z4 camera style to S5, or make a flasble zip file so new people who are not so good at installing stuff can install Z4 camera to their s5
I test the Alliance for more than month with stock and ktoonz kernel and after a while I move to ambassadi cuz the rom is laggy randomly then with Ambassadi no issue but nothing special, I also test phoenix and also nothing special and in the end the most stable is the alexander without discussion but stock finally am with the zombie rom it's new feeling and smooth the only issue is battery drain, this is only my opinion and every one can test before, every one have differents so please test every rom to see the developers job and take your time with evry one so you can have an idea

I can't say i have any special favorite rom since most of them are good in their way. But if i still would have to pick one.
My vote goes to Phoenix 6.3 (TW Rom) for ease of use and stability. ?

Suggestions required for simple and stable ROM for I9500

Hello everyone
I have a I9500 with Exynos processor running android 5.0.1, Baseband- I9500DDUHOA1, Build number- XXUHOF3.
I was generally happy with My phone but all hell broke lose after last update. Battery life doesnt last more than 2-3 hours. GPS doesnt lock at all. The phone hangs too much. Wifi signal is poor.
I can factory reset the phone (Since I didnt do it since several OTA updates) but I am wondering even that might not solve the problem and I should flash some good and stable ROM.
My issue is I Dont Know which one is a good and stable ROM. There are so many options and I feel very lost. Therefore I would be thankful if anyone can guide Me to which ROM should I install. My goal is simple- a fast working stable phone. Nothing fancy required.
I have flashed ROMS on My earlier phone Galaxy S (I9000) so I am not a novice and can do it if instructions are provided in the thread.
Thanks in advance.
Fast shouldn't be an issue, since practically any custom rom is faster than touchwiz.
I don't know much about the I9500 roms since I, myself, haven an I9505. But there is a rom called ressurection remix which seems to be available for both devices. I'm running it now and its fast and stable so far.
I'm using slimkat ASOP rom and it's nice and stable
Thanks for the replies. How is the default Cynagonmod? Any good?
Cm 12.1
Default Cm is maintained by Alberto with someone else .
If you want best cm experience use his own Gearcm 11,12,12.1 builds .
They are currently at a more advanced level of development than his own official Cm builds .
All are good . Look it up in original android i9500 forum .
Try gearcm 12.1 optimized by alberto96. It is rock stable,performance is also good. U can find it in i9500 original android development. Enjoy
And also for TW based rom halcyon rom is very much popular, u can find it in i9500 android development.
Thanks a lot for replies. Would it be possible to point Me to a link for downloading and installing this. I guess I should try with Gear CM 12.1?
Hows the gps and battery life on that?

Need suggestions for best rom for s4 i9500

Hey guys, I am really fed up with the bugs and issues in stock 5.0.1 of s4 i9500 edition. Snapchat force closes every now and then, chrome crashes , wallpaper gets auto changed and so on.
I would like to know which would be the best rom that I can install which can be used a daily driver, I want to install it once and use it tension-free. Can you guys suggest which ones do you use as your daily driver, which gives the best performance and maximum battery life and should be based on lollipop 5.1
I am not really into changing roms so I would like this one to bug free and stable, I do not need any additional features.
Thanks!!
The best ROM is subjective, in that everyone's opinions are going to differ. The only way you're going to know which ROM is best for you is trying them out.
Thanks for your reply. I actually wanted everyone's opinion so that I can know which ones are very stable and working great for them and then I can go ahead and try them and select the one out of them that works best for me
Euphoria rom is best as if i think so....
But if u want to use samsung apps, airview, air gestures halcyon rom would be nice
For better battery backup go for stock rom which is somewhat stable now.
Aurora is the best
All air functions work fine and some of the note features are there and in adition very stable
after many roms tests
Been using Aurora V2 - crashed yesterday while in a call. A big NO for me, but otherwise the rom was more than satisfactory overall. I have automatic call record enabled, so could've been that... not sure.
Wanna try Halcyon next...
For me,
AOSP-based ROM: GearCM and everything based on that ROM
TW-based ROM: Doctor's S6 port/Halcyon/MBP with VoLTaqe Kernel
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD
My vote is for darklord...
AOSP : Gear CM, Resurrection Remix and Euphoria
T.W. : Aurora S6/S6E V3.0, Dark Lord and Halycon.
Kernal : VoLTaqe Kernel and Light-Weight-Kernel.
Doctor's Rom is also good but somehow didn't work good for me.
**Happy to Help**
Cyanogenmod. Very stable and fast.
Uptill now, am on stock rom, which has been stable . However, waiting for CM 13, as Android 6 is not going to come for s4. Problem for i9500 which has exynos chip and as yet unreleased source code, CM 13 will be delayed. Just released cm 13 for snapdragon i9505. Running CM 12.1s in i9300, s3 for the past year. Very stable.

Stable Rom for 9505

Hi all,
I'm new on the S4.. I currently use the optimized CM version based on 5.1.1 but I'm not happy with it.. Too many bugs.. I just want to ask you which is currently the best stable rom for my device.. Of course I know that Marshmallow isn't stable.. So I'm looking for a good 5.X rom..
Thanks!
[jflte] gpe 5.0
Does it have a good battery drain? I don't find anything about it in the thread ..
I'm using AOSP 6.0.1 from JDCTeam and I'm absolutely happy with it. I never had any problem with it. Before I used various 5.x ROMS and had problems over problems.
Hope I could help you (even if it's not 5.x)
Both CM 12.1 snapshot and current CM13 nightly are quite stable. So if your phone has bugs running these ROMs, chances are you did something wrong or it is hardware problem.
Optimised CM by JDC is a great rom but since there are too many tweaks / mods in this rom, stability is quite subjective. If you want stable rom, go for stock CM.

there are only two places it could be... http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...dcteam-android-source-project-mra58v-t3251663
The link provided by 3mel is correct. That's the ROM I'm currently using.
(I don't have enough posts yet to post links, otherwise I'd have posted it for you).
