Eh nothing you will really notice. Don't expect a feature filled update.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk
Bionix-V is the older more stable version and the Bionix Frost is the newer, in Beta testing development version.
Another difference is that Bionix-V is based on the software that Samsung put on the Vibrant, while Frost is based on the software that is on the new Samsung Galaxy S 4G. Since the base for Frost was originally made for a different phone, more effort is required to make it work on the Vibrant.

I personally like Bionix V. Been using Team Whiskey roms for a while now and they have yet to disappoint. In the end, its just a matter of preference.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Bionix-V seems to have very few bugs. The bugs people are reporting, most users cannot duplicate their problems. Frost, well it still needs some tweaking before it's ready as a "daily driver" as stable/fast as Bionix 1.3
i've tried both. after enabling voodoo on the latest frost, i've noticed a considerable difference from the initial build. bionix is ULTRA stable. there is no doubt that it is the more stable of the two. however, IMHO i haven't noticed a huge difference between the speed or usability of either...if you would rather deal with less "potential" bugs, then i would suggest you go with Bionix V.

Next Rom I should Flash?

OK, so it seems that Axura Roms are not being updated anymore! I am currently using Voodoo Axura 2.3.1.3 Rom and Kernel version 2.6.32.9 with KB5 Modem.
I would like to move on to a new Rom. Close to what Axura was. I like all the
custom stuff the Axura Roms had. So, I am asking what do you guys think would be the next best Rom for me to move on to? Must have Voodoo and no major bugs!
and things like Voodoo sound and themes would be a plus! thanks for the info and the help!
Peace out~

I'm using Bi Winning with the Bullet kernel. Fast as hell with great battery life and that's with it OC'd to 1.48ghz. No bugs at all, and there are several themes for it listed in the rom's op.
I switched to trigger from axura and I must say I'm very happy. Running it with overstock kernel and have all those extras you want and a nearly flawless vibrant.

I personally love Simply Galaxy. IMO best for my use. The blue black theming is great and its a super fast stable ROM.
They are all great. Try them out and see what you like. If you find that you like one developers releases or a dev team consider donating to them. If you want my personal opinion check out my sig.
On a side note wouldnt it be funny if someone named a ROM "ur mom" haha. People would be all "im currently flashing ur mom" & "i just flashed ur mom" lol haha.
- Or just "Rom"
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
The best advice is to try the roms for yourself. Everybody has different opinions on all the different roms there is. I know its time consuming but just read through their threads and see what the people running the roms have to say and just take the plunge and find out if you like it or not.

[Q] Best Stable Vibrant ROM?

I just need a stable 2.2 ROM, preferably with a 1.4 GHz overclock.
Stable roms (that I've tried) - Bionix, Trigger, and Bi-Winning
Since you want to OC, you need a custom kernel (i think all those roms just come with Stock voodoo). Any OC that you will do will not create a stable environment for your Vibrant (everyones CPU is built differently so results will vary). Basically, OC and Stable do not go in the same sentence.

Bionix NextGen 1.3.2 with whatever overclock kernel is recommended.
Hands down.
I'm not currently using it for testing purposes (and because the theme sucks so hard, sorry TW, I love you but you gotta admit that ****'s ugly.)
Try SGS II clone V2. It's stable, and looks great. I'm running with an Overstock kernel.

I've found on my vibrant that a 1.4ghz overclock is too much.. 1.2 is stable though.
I'm using the trigger rom it runs great with of but you don't need to overclock to 1.4 to improve overall smoothness

Best FroYo ROM

I havent used a FroYo ROM in quite sometime because i moved onto CM7 and now ICS, but i got my mom a Vibrant today and i was wondering what the most solid and fastest ROM is, I remember Bionix 1.3.1 was always great, but has anyone made a super killer FroYo ROM that you would suggest?
P.S. I am just looking for something that works with no kinks, GPS Working and good battery life.
Bionixxxx
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yep, I'd go with Bionix if you want a good, solid ROM with no kinks. I ran it for more than six months, and I loved it. Good GPS, great battery, just a solid ROM all around.
Link to thread here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925548
I've run the gamut from 2.1-4.0 roms for our Vibrant, but Deranged 9 is my favorite. Great Battery life, working GPS, support for tons of themes once it hits final and as fast as CM7....

Seriously, I know its my rom, but its probably the most stable and up to date (last updated on Black Friday) froyo rom we have rolling around. I am running ICS currently, but I do still support ZD, in the rare occasion that support is needed. There are also vanilla froyo and gb themes available, with or without a multitude of lock screens thanks to contributions from the community.

he meant deprecated, not depreciated. meaning, it is old, out of use, and has been replaced (i.e. obsolete due to a newer, better version). i'm guessing 'deprecated' got autocorrected.

That's true. It's like asking which ice cream flavor is best. So try a few and see what floats your boat. But be careful though - if you start with ZenDroid you probably won't get around to flashing anything else.

I agree with Br1ckd. Zendroid is stable, smooth and the battery life is amazing. Bionixx is good too no doubt but Zendroid seemed to give me better battery life.

Best
I think Bionix is the most solid to date, but thats stating that we haven't perfected a 2.2.1 rom!!!
I am surprised no one has mentioned either Toxic8 or Deranged9. I have had nothing but solid, stable experiences on both if them. I feel that nearly all the Froyos are about as stable as they can get at this point.
ICS has taken over as the flavor most wanted, so not much on the future horizon for Froyo.
They all felt the same....just different features...

If you really want a stable and fast Rom then stick with one of fishman or mopedryders 2.2 roms. Your phone may handle ice cream and jb roms fine but my phone didn't like them at all and there is usually something that doesn't work on jb, gps , reboot issues etc.
