I think the question should be CM7 or Darky? Check the Dec section ;-)

Bionix v 1.3! I have been using it moderately since 9:00 and it is now 12:10, only had time to charge it to 87 this morning. Now, 3 hours later; the battery is still at 76, so 11 percent with moderate usage. Amazing battery!! Would be on frost, but it didmt work very well on my phone for some reasons dn I love the black of bionix v

Both roms are fast, and have used both for at least 3 days(Trigger 2.6.2); both have excellent battery life.
I like Trigger's theme and look more.
BUT, Bionix 1.3 has 343mb Ram.
So, my vote goes to Bionix on that virtue.
Can't go wrong with either though
Trigger, with the OverStock Kernel = Heaven for me.
True...

To be fair, you can get 343mb on any rom you choose. It's the overstock kernel that allows the 343mb ram
With that said, choose which you like better

Right now I'm on Trigger. Bionix was my favorite, however I had some issues keeping connectivity to my company e-mail with it that I haven't had on Trigger. Otherwise, Bionix was fast and the battery life was amazing.
I have been using Bionix since Nero V and haven't encountered a problem yet. Yes Bionix. I tried Trigger once, i like them, but went back to Bionix.
does both ROMs support ffc?
Yes

I believe both do. I don't think what ROM you are using will affect the FFC if you have have SGSTool or something along the lines of that and other softwares you need on your phone for FFC.
Trigger, stable, fast, reliable. Add overStock to it and you will fall in love with your phone all over again, just like the day you got it! Plus, Birg makes sure the ROM gets only better and better with every release, just when you thought it doesn't get better than that!
Can't go wrong!

I've been running trigger for a few days now. It really is a top notch rom. Plus if you read thru the trigger thread you will see how much the devs help people out. Give it a shot you wont be sorry.

Ah, my bad. Didn't see that 2.6.4 has the option of Rom w/Overstock in 1 flash =)
This thread was kind of pointless. Of course people are going to choose what they currently run. If they didn't, why would they run it?
So, basically.... let's go ahead and sum up everyone's opinion on XDA. More people have downloaded and installed the Bionix series. Is this because it's been around longer? Possibly. Is it because Team Whiskey followers are persistent? Possibly.
I have personally tried both. I'm sticking to what I know and what I know are Team Whiskey's ROM's. Trigger is a machine though, I can assure you.
Happy choosing

You really need to try them both for looks and feel. What I like best may not look good to you. Flashing is a big part of the fun running a vibrant
Yea both a good!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
bionix... its super fast, and looks so slick
The key here is the overstock kernel, you can flash either bionix, trigger, axura rom then flash the lastest overstock kernel over it. Then start kicking ass!
I flash overstock on top of axura, got a quarant score of 1839 and a neocore of 64.9.
I was a steady user of Bionix for quite sometime but I must say, Trigger has made a believer out of me. As it's been stated, the Overstock kernel will crank your phone up to 11 no matter which rom you use, but I dunno, Trigger just seems to hit a sweet spot for me.
Try them both, it's insanely easy to switch roms these days. Haven't ran into a bootloop or anything in ages.
Hey I am sporting Nero v2 since December on my Vibrant, and am looking for a reliable upgrade. Anyone recommend a fairly bug free rom that is better than Nero v2 to upgrade to? Main thing is that the phone features need to be reliable... Phone calls, and SMS/MMS work. Speed an added bonus.
Thanks much for advice.
I was maybe still a hugh fan of tw but I just started flashing a lot of roms til. Came across Trigger's rom and haven't flashed anything else.
My vote is going to Trigger.
Ps..you might get some **** for not posting this in Q&A. Good luck!

Bionix by TW or Trigger by EDT in my opinion are the best 2.2 roms.

I agree with this. Both are fast and stable. I got better battery and less minor bugs on Trigger though

Trigger is my first pick, and slap the Tiger Blood kernel on it. Then Axura, then TW Bionix. But that's just my opinion. BTW, you should read and post in the right place fam, people get hype for this kind of stuff...... I am a fan of the Tiger Blood kernel just because on my phone at least, it has given me the better battery life thus far.
Moved to Q&A. Please do not post question threads in Development.
I went from nero v5 to loki 2.4 (has been removed though) and was pleasantly impressed how well the 2.2.1 rom ran in comparison. So any of the 2.2.1 flavor roms would strongly get my vote.

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*

Hey, it's been awhile since i've been on here. Still running nero 5.
What are the best roms out there right now?
Sent from Samsung Vibrant rooted with Nero V5
there are a lot of good roms here, as always is just a matter of taste. if you like stock android there are cyanogenmod roms which are all good, and some more are based on cyanogemod. but if you are like me and dont want stock like android, go for MIUI. you can also try a few of them. hope i helped.
I'll look into MIUI.
In your opinion what would be the best as far as upgraded speed and performance?

Alright, I love team whiskey. I'm leaning towards Bionix 1.3.1. What is a good recommendation for a powerful and fast kernel?
Sent from Samsung Vibrant rooted with Nero V5
Give bi winning V3 a try. Comes with bullet kernel that you can over clock if you want. Its the smoothest rom I've ever used. Zero issues.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
go through them and see what you think
none of us can say whats best because you might think different
Is bionix 1.3.1 with overstock 1'3 any good?
That's what I'm leading towards, if you use that could you tell me what you think?

I am using Simply Honey 5.1 Revolution Beta. I like it
CM7 for pure vanilla FTW
I am on bionix 1.3.1 using Super Dragon MoDz right now, I used overstock for it a while back and it ran like butter. That would be a solid upgrade.
Toxic8 with Supercharger v6.
Nothing and i mean absolutely nothing comes even close...
Alright bionix it is.
It's been awhile so bare with me.
Odin back to stock, then flash bionix, then overstock. Right?
Or can I just flash right over the top of nero 5?

Simply Honey 5.1 w/ 1.2 Bullet kernel. Badass Rom \m/
I used to have bionix + bali kernel. When I missed a charge for a day it was no problem since i could easily go 2 days without a charge. Now I switched to Simply Honey v5. I have to charge twice a day or it just dies at nite leaving me without an alarm. The battery life is 3-4x less compared to my old setup.
GPS, compass, accel., ambient light sensors dont work properly. I gave up on GPS and turn it off. It doesnt work and if by mistake i tried to use it, it keeps running and sucks the battery in no time. The working GPS claim in OP is untrue.
And Simply Honey (and I think all other GB ROMs) wipe everything in the phone! Backup to your PC!
I wouldnt go with a GB ROM at this time if I knew there were so many issues.
Gingerzen! Only stable gingerbread rom I've ever used and the battery lasts all day for me (I wake up at 5)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Toxic 8 with V6 super scripts and immortality 2.2 kernal is by far the best combo i've had on my vibrant. Speed and batter life are incredible and outperform any other ROM i've tried on here.
I tried GB but couldn't take the issues with GPS, compass, speed, battery.
Running Bionix 1.3.1 with Bali 1.8.8 kernel and loving it! Consistently fast and great battery.
2.3 roms have some minor issues .....so 2.2 is best!
Im on trigger. And liking it
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I might try one of those then, I did bionix 1.3 with overstock 1.3.
I like everything about it, except the battery life is definitely worse than my nero 5 was.
And I did the same to my wifes vibrant and she can't seem to get the defalt launcher to stay the same, it's always switching.

hey as the title says searching for a stable froyo rom for a friend he doesnt like cm7 or anything gingerbread and theres so many to choose from i dont know where to start please and thank you
There really is no Froyo rom here that isn't stable. It will all come down to personal preference. I like ZenDroid. It's smooth and has all of the non essental bloat removed. Bi-Winning v3 is also good. I tend to go between those two. Pair either of those with the Bali 1.8.8UV kernel or DragonMODz kernel, and you've got yourself a slick rom with very good battery. But there are lots of choices so it's really up to you.
Hope this helps
I have flashed every single flashable froyo and cm7/cm7 based roms that I could find on xda and I must say while I liked zendroid and have alot of repect for the developer but overall my favorite recent froyo rom is toxic crazy 8. I used the theme clean and shiny for music and toxic 8 and it is visually beatiful with themed in call screens and everything all included. Its also a super fast rom. I never disable voodoo (some will disagree with me on that) and its super quick to flas any rom within cwm so id try both and decide but make sure to get clean and shiny if you do toxic 8 its great. Ill also throw in that this is yhe first tozic I have used as a daily and even having a daily is rare for me but the dev is always helping people and he is very helpful and never rude, its really cool.

I like Project-V. I don't think I'll switch for a while. Bionix 1.3.1 is good, but the add widgets menu is too cluttered for me. With ZenDroid, I get a bunch of annoying bugs and force closes even after a fresh install from JFD. Bi-Winning wasn't my thing, only tried for a few hours. Same with Bionix NextGen.
Bionix 1.3.1 is the epitome of stable Roms. Your friend should have no problems from it.

Chalk another one up for Bionix! Used to run it and I don't think I had a single problem with it.
I have to agree with Toxic8. Been using it for a few days now after moving from Toxic7. Fantastic battery life, smooth as silk, and rock solid stable.
Whichever was explodingboy70's last updated Froyo rom. Everything worked flawlessly and it looked awesome, not to mention I was getting absurdly long battery life.
Just went back to Bionix 1.3.1 after trying many other roms, its a masterpiece
