As the title says, what's your favorite ROM and why? Why didn't you stay on that rom and go to the one your on? Or you can explain a short review/experience with them.

Hmm, I've always flashed roms by Team Whiskey.
I think out of all of them, Nero v5 and Bionix-V 1.2 would tie as my favorites as of now.
Both are extremely snappy and smooth. The battery life is incredible. As of now, I'm currently running Bionix-V 1.2 and as of this last charge, my phone has been off the charger for 51 hrs (17% left) with light/moderate usage.
TBH, I could've stayed on Nero v5, but I just moved on because I wanted to experience the new hotness from TW.
(Actually, that's a pro and a con when it comes to TW: everytime you flash one of their roms, it takes only 4-5 days before a new one comes out and then you've got to debate whether or not to flash the new one, lol.)
my Rom of choice : Di11igaf
Smooth, fast, and good looking.. oh wait.. sorry guys i was looking in the mirrror..
haha JK.. yea this rom is dope.. Blue Version!

As expected, anything by Einherjar Dev Team will be my choice.
That said, this is going to be different for everyone. It depends what you want in a Rom.
Masters roms are always very visually appealing.
TW is who I studied. They make a solid rom, everytime. They also have access to every kerneler there is, except for freelance supercurio.
EDT is very young but growing fast. These roms are set out to be created as something that does yet exist.
Eugene is the hero of anyone who has ever had to recover from a soft brick. Solid roms.
The lone rom-ers are starting to bring out some very solid products.
Lol, I guess thats all I have to say right now.

I'm a big fan of the team einherjar Roms. they seem to be the most stable to me and have the least amount of issues. i recently flashed bionix V 1.2.1 but i has issues trying to download apps from the market even after reflashing like three times. needless to say i flashed back to trigger 2.0. thats just my 2 cents.
Nero v3 because it had the best battery life. But i dont want to revert back because bionix has some things that nero did not and i will take them over the battery. But yea i love battery and have heard that axura has excellent battery life.
Cyanogen mod 7
Pretty stable, fast and statusbar widgets.

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.

Not disagreeing persay but Frost is just as stable. Only issue I've had is a slight menu lag.

But this has to be the 3rd+ post this past weekend regarding Bionix/Frost/2.2/2.2.1
and "whats the difference"
I'm sorry but the only way for be to access xda is by the app ans the search function on the apologize is $hit. If it wasn't I wouldn't have posted 3/4 of what I have. But on last question, what's the difference between 2.2 and 2.2.1

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.
Man there are so many 2.2.1 ports! So I was wondering, which 2.2.1 Rom is the best out if the ones you tried? And why are you on the one you are on now?
Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Bi-Winning. Fastest and most stable rom I've tried.
Thanks for your answer! Anyone else?

I tried the latest 'AOSP' Gingerclone, it was pretty snappy. Although, I'm not a fond of 2.2.1 ports, it was ohkay. I prefer Bionix-V 1.2.1 (Modified to my liking.) or CM7.

I realize that most of these rom threads are very long. But when I am looking, I always read through them and usually don't download them until they've been up at least a couple of days. I take into consideration what others have to say but even more then that I look to see how often the developer responds to questions and problems.
Now that I've tried a few EDT roms I find myself downloading there beta roms 5 minutes after they've uploaded them. Not to take anything away from any other developers but just take a look around XDA, there's always at least one of their team members on here helping someone with something. They are very devoted to making this a better phone and not just for themselves.
So to answer your question Bi-Winning is my rom of choice for 2.2.1.
Bi Winning Beta 3

Bi Winning or JPJPM. I've tried both and they're equally great but I opted for the letter since it has full Arabic support.

I started with Bionix but I just recently flashed Trigger. Trigger is pretty rad.
Same here. Ran several versions of Bionix, got bit by the flashing bug and switched to Trigger. Been running the Overstock kernel for a while but am about to try out Bali.
Let me answer your question with a question:
Which make of car is the best?
If this thread stays serious long enough you will find, like most "Which is the best (insert any tangible object here)?" threads, every ROM will get a few hits.
/sarcasm off
On a serious note I have gone between Eugene's ROMs, Sombionix's ROMs and a few of EDT's ROMs. They all have their perks and for some they all have their short comings. If you want the custom ROM feel with a relatively painless installation, go with the one of the above. If you want something a little more custom go with MiUi or CM7 or a few of the other projects.
I personally use Trigger 2.9.4 with OverStock 2.x and enjoy it quite a lot. In the past I've enjoyed Eugene's MacNut series, nearly all of Som's 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs and EDT's Flagship and Trigger.
tl;dr
Pick one yourself and see how it goes, restoring from a backup isn't all that difficult.

The devs in this forum are so amazing, and their ROMs of such quality, that you owe it to yourself to try them all to find out which you like the most.
well since its already been said like 5 times, I'm just going to agree that I put on trigger 3 rom a few weeks ago and have been running overstock kernel for a while before that. but the 2 together. un-freaking believably awesome.
I repeat.. *ehem*
UN-FREAKING BELIEVABLY AWESOME

Hi everyone. Quick question. What ROm is the most stable for now for Samsung Vibrant. Thank you!
Most stable? Probably bionix 1.3.1 or CM7(911 issues with cm though.)
Ics roms are quite stable for me, minor bugs here and there.

Updated CM7/9 kangs have fixed 911.
So are they going to start officially supporting the vibrant now that 911 issues has been resolved?

That's a hard question to answer at this point in time. Almost every rom is stable for the Vibrant. The question is, what are you looking for in a rom?
Are you looking for customization? Then you'll want to look into roms like Miui. Do you want great battery life? Then you'll want to look into roms like Deranged 9 or Bionix. Are you that kind of person who "has to have the latest and greatest"? Then you may want to check out roms like Passion. There are hundreds of roms to choose from! If you can narrow down your preferences then it will be very easy to point you in the direction of roms you'll like...
I vote bionix great battery
