Best rom and kernel combo? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey went from a vibrant to sgs 4g so I don't keep up anymore and just checked out the fourms again and saw the huge variety of roms and stuff was just wondering what's the best up to date/stable combo there is right now

depends on what you are looking for, whether you are on clockwork, cyno, etc...

Do you mean clockworkmod? What's cyno? I am currently using clockworkmod

I can't wait til MIUI has working GPS ... I had it on for a couple weeks and loved it more than any rom out there. Kernel - meh.

Try Revolution Rom RC1.1, it is really stable, it is GB 2.3.4, GPS works, and the kernel is bullet by cmenard.

none of these roms are really gonna work well on the sgs4g, that said i know krylon mentioned a way to port vibrant roms to the sgs4g i believe there should be a thread in the sgs4g section

Froyo with Flash??

Hello XDA im a eris-aholic and im looking for a froyo rom with flash. So far ive only found 2. 1 roms that have flash but no 2.2's or am i missing something? Pls help!!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
The only one that I know of is the KaosLegendary v.19 ROM. It's a Wildfire Port, but is very visual rough and still in the alpha phase but flash does really work (probably thing that works really well as of right now). Hope this helps :3
Edit:
The reason for this is that to have Flash 10.1 of the Eris you either need to port it on the back of another 2.2 sense ROM or build it on top of out default 2.1 sense ROM with flash lite. Most (maybe all) other 2.2 ROMs for Dorid Eris are ASOP (cyanogen) which doesn't work well when mixed with the Eris and Flash.

Kaos.legendary

Ok so I'm. Going to assume that install through pc to kaos 37 also wouldn't work well then. Is like to have the best of both worlds but legendary is still alpha and kinda funky atm IMHO. any other input would be great

I've had flash running on every 2. 1 sense Rom that I've flashed, but so far no luck with the 2.2 because they are all cyanogen. As of last night or the night before, the htc gratia was ported to the Eris. It's the first "working" 2.2 SENSE Rom for us. Only problem is that its still very very rough.. setup is in Chinese, no WiFi, camera issues, and to turn it off you have to do a battery pull. So, maybe in a few weeks some of our great devs will have that Rom running smoother and reliably, and maybe then, flash will work on it. Even then, there may still be issues =/ we'll see tho! Hope this helps!

Give it a month. It'll have smoothed out by then.

Or a couple of days lol. There's a few versions out now like tenzos and tazz's. Both are already looking very good.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
IMO Tenzo is on the forefront of making a useable functional 2.2 Sense ROM for our Erii.
+1 for Tenzos 2.2 Sense rom.
So far I've demo'd them both and tenzo is definitely closer to completion even though it still has bugs.... ill probably go with tenzo unless kaos pulls this through quick
And clean

Best Stock Experience

What is the best stock rom you guys have used? Im using Eugene's Gingerclone 2.2 ROM and like it a lot. But I'm just curious what's you guys think is the best.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
What do you mean by stock? Ginger clone is not stock.
I know. That's why I'm inquiring peoples opinions about their pros and cons of the roms they've had experience with.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I dont think anyones stock experience has been all too great tbh, i.e. lag and no gps. I like the feel of nero roms the best, but ive had better gps and battery life with axura. I havent tried any other roms than those 2, I keep toggling them as they come out
Even this Gingerclone is starting to lag. I would like something with no frills or extras. Just a stock rom, like what you see on the Nexus line. No UI, nothing to slow it down.

If only CyanogenMod supported our devices...
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Get gingerclone, its the best and closest to stock froyo besides unofficial one.
Use a lagfix, don't do any more "rooting" "flashing" etc. then it'll be like ur on stock.
Try Nero

So many 2.2.1!!

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.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
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
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So far I am convinced that bi-winning is the best, anyone else have any others?

haven't tried bi winning but my vote is for sweet honey. it's fast, and i have it themed with Scarlet leftovers.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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.
Hey Bi-winning fans! He's uploading Bi-Winning V1 as we speak!

What's the best ROM out right now???

I'm currently using the latest Sombionix Rom and I want to check out some others. Can u guys point me in the right direction please... Thank u!!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
All of them lol cm7 , trigger, bionix, and bi winning with bullllllllllet .
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
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

Best Gingerbread Rom?

I know this has probably been repeated numerous times in the past but the roms change very often and so i was just wondering what you guys thought of as the best gingerbread rom. I'm currently on MIUI 360 and i like it so far. I havent tried many of the newer nightlies for cyanogen though so idk what those perform like.
Cm7 is best stable rom without gps! Especially with nightlies with rom manager premium
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I used Simply Honey 3.6 and was extremely happy with it. Super fast and stable. I had to reluctantly give it up for Froyo though because I use my GPS too much.
