[Q] Questions apart - Optimus One, P500, V General

What is the best rom out there ? Which is more stable and runs smoother ? I have been using Devoid Froyo Final for a while now, was using Megatron V1 til I started getting force closes everytime I wiped everything and started over....

Most users of the O1 use either Mik's CM7, Andy's Rom, and Void #Forever. Just pick the one that fits you best.

[Q] Most stable gingerbread rom vibrant

I'm gonna make the transition from Froyo (Trigger) to Gingerbread. I've been enjoying the stability of Trigger and this has prevented me from going 2.3.4 because last time I check it was still "Experimental"
Now I look and it seems as if a lot of gingers are stable.
Is there one you guys can recommend for me. I'm used to using CWM to flash roms and doing the 3 cache clears.
Which do you recommend I try if any. Should I stick with froyo 2.2 or 2.2.1 or give a gingerrom a try?
I heard revolution rom RC1 is really stable and i'm thinking of upgrading to that
sent from vibrant running trigger 3.2 and SuperDragonModz
Been running Asgard V3, now V3.1. No issues, fast, GPS works (for me), Like it a lot. Asgard V2 was buggy but V3 is sweet.
Recomend that if you are going to gingerbread become friendly with Odin.
With the exception of CM7/Miui it is much better to be using gingerbread bootloaders with a gingerbread rom and you need Odin to flash them.
Thanks guys, I ended up getting Revolution for the AOSP look, so far so good! Loving it, the 15min break in period never lasted so long haha.
I appreciate the advice though, it helped me make a decision

running cm7 but appkik says 2,2

hi , ive been running cm7 7/18 . with glitch kernel an i think ed05 modem phone works great an holds up pretty well when overclocked to 1,5mhz . an has quadrant scores of 3000 . My question is i recently DL APPKIK to back up apps between flashes , but for some reason when i close certain apps it tells me i am running 2,2 an have to force stop my apps manually . sorry to be a noob by why does it say iam using froyo
Well your running a Nightly rom. Those roms are bound to have errors. But no, Your on Gingerbread. Appkik is just reporting that doesn't make that your running froyo.
thank you, i was thinking that but wasn't sure .

please select your favorite ROM from 18 ROMS, and share your rom report

maybe you have used many ROM for your i9100,please poll your favourite,and tell us your use report about rom.THANKS
the following is the history of my use about rom:
lite'ning 3.0---CM7 nightly 1-15---villainROM 2.4---Leomar75 2.4 and 2.5 ---cognition s2 1.4,1.4.2 ---sensatioN 1.2,1.3--MIUI1.8.12--Lite‘ning 6.0 xxkh1
i think no best rom,there are only some ROM that fit you~
stock rom.. im going to try MIUI rom and CM7 rom, once they get a little more finished, till then Villain rom is basically a stock rom, that comes prerooted
Rigth now villain but i think im keen to try cognition s2 as it seems to be pretty popular looking at your voting chart.
THANKS~~and you could try cognition 1.4.0 and 1.4.2
cognition 1.4.0 kernel ninphetamine 2.0.5
cognition 1.4.2 kernel speedmod k1-t22
beacuse first time cognition adopt speedmod kernel~when i using 1.4.2,i could feel some unstable~
so i recommend you could try cognition 1.4.0 and sensatioN 1.3
they are battery friendly
Revolution for me.
Was on stock for a long time, also tried Cognition and Villain for lengthy periods. Stability is important for me, so no CM7. Had nothing but bad experiences with MIUI, won't go near it again.
Stuck with Revolution because it was the first ROM without a laggy stock browser in KG6 (don't want a 3rd party browser), supports a monochrome theme bugfree, love the OTA kitchen and updates, and Leo is a great dev.
Liked Cognition and Villain too - two great devs - but found my keeper
Which rom ???? xx rom version 1 may be good version 2 may be better and version 3 may be worse .
This is not a vote on a rom just a vote on a roms name .
jje
Lite'ning, Batista70, Criskelo, Villain, Miui, Cognition, CM7, Leomar, tried all with differents Kernell. Some serve better than others, Criskelo stayed longer. Now back to Lite'ning KH1-Speedmod-T22, fast and batery friendly.
I tried: CM7 nightly 20, MIUI, VillainRom, and Revolution so far. I voted revolution as it seems to be the most stable one for now.
prefer batista 3.5..super smooth
You want an option for 'no real preference'. I'm running villain but not through having done any comparisons or investigations. The kernel is the only interesting variable for me, not the ROM (other than making sure it is reasonably up-to-date)
yes~but i can't list all roms and all versions

What monochrome theme you using with Revolution, NitrozK's?
I'm with you on the monochrome mate...
no best,right~i like batista70
Cognition all the way - stock looking but amazing speed, clean, and bugless!!
Please add GingerMOD. I'm using this rom right now and it's the best of both worlds, aosp looks with the best of stock Samsung firmware. (ie. Camera, FM Radio, etc.)

Currently on Leo's modified Sikashi theme from his kitchen - it's excellent.
Haven't tried nitrozk's theme on Revolution yet - found it a bit buggy on Cognition, it's been updated many times since but work has now ceased.
Assuming that it won't work on forthcoming KH3, so no reason to change for me.
Baffled at the lurv for greens/blues/God-knows-what..

Have to say im surprised people are saying CM7, usually it most likely would come out on top if stable but it's far from stable at present and that's the reason i haven't flashed it, i want a stable build on my phone with everything working, Lite'ing ROM was the first i had a good it was but ive stuck with Cognition now for a while.

What do you mean not stable? i'm using it since build 16 and never had a fc or a random reboot, everythings i use works nicely apart for bt audio. The rom itself is smooth and clean

I don't understand how people are saying that CM7 is unstable, have you guys actually tried it? What problems have you had?
I've used it since version 12 and never had a problem with FC or rebooting. My only gripe with it is that it doesn't have bluetooth audio, but I knew that going in and I know it's high on the priority list for development.
Currently looking for a ROM with bluetooth to fill the gap until it's done though, as it's killing me not having the bluetooth for my car. But when that functionality is there, I'll be straight back.

[Q] Looking for the best stock-based rom

Hello!
Been using MIUI , but suddently i wanted to start taking some nice photos, and since the MIUI/CM Based roms have a terrible camera quality the only option is to flash a stock based rom.
Tried a couple last night (Revolution and Simply Stock) and both didn't work. (had bootloop when the phone was trying to do something with a partition and, aparently, i had not enough space on the partition). So i'm now looking for a stable one. Would love if there was a GB stable one, but can't seem to find any :\
Also tried to flash back to the stock (eclair i suppose), but couldn't connect to my wifi spot neither update it using kies :S
Any help here would be great
im using project. very stable. try it...
zendroid is very stable. Has best battery life,stability, and working features out there imo. No need for eclair(2.1!?), just find a 2.2 rom.(bionic, bi-winning, project).
Look around, as there are MANY users like you who have no need to put up with unpredictable and battery draining 2.3 roms.
you couldn't flash another rom because you HAVE to flash back to stock jfd when coming back from cm7 or miui
I don't think ROMS have such an effect on Camera Quality. Most of them will be cool. Go for Bionix thats good.
Ultimate rom is nuts.

I IZ NOOB. Which Gingerbread ROM should i install?

Hi,
I was thinking of installing a custom ROM on my Optimus One/P500 last year but decided not too and kept using the stock 2.1 ROM, until yesterday when i installed the root uninstaller app to remove some of the annoying default apps and somehow messed the phone up and now it won't start!
So now i wan't to install a custom ROM with Gingerbread, but there seem to be so many different ones with different specs that a n00b like me just isn't 1337 enough to understand.
I'm looking for a simple Gingerbread ROM without too many fancy add-ons, it should have the default Gingerbread theme, should run faster then and get better battery life then stock Android 2.1, and be stable enough for everyday use, please suggest which ROM i should install!
Nearly 90% of the official roms are uploaded with megaupload and those links are down

You should update to Official Gingerbread for Optimus One.
Better battery life? No way. Stock Froyo version has the best battery life. Any Gingerbread rom will drain your battery quick. The only advantage is that Gingerbread run more fast.
First update to official gingerbread for the new baseband..
follow this http://webtrickz.com/install-offici...te-on-lg-optimus-one-using-kdz-updater-guide/
and root it.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244
and Flash Perfectpeso ROM its Good
If Gingerbread will drain the battery too much, what's a good user friendly and minimalistic Froyo ROM that will have better battery life then stock?
Also i seem to have messed up my stock ROM while trying to get rid of some default apps using the "Root Uninstaller" app from the Android market, It won't get past the 'ANDROID' title screen, Is it possible to install a new ROM without having to start the phone?
If you doesn't want to change baseband, you must search rom that works on the old one.
There's even a fix that made possible use the gingerbread ron on the old baseband.
Some roms (like nightlyfour by eeee616) has a old baseband version, other (like Perfectpeso by tretted) has linked the fix for old basebad by adfad666.
Bye!

You can flash custom recovery via LGMDP tool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15217609&postcount=3
Then hang the three button combo Power+Home+Vol down till recovery opens and flash the ROM there.
If you want Froyo, I suggest you devoid #froyo-final .
But I don't agree with previous posts - I think, the battery in Gingerbread is much better than in Froyo.
Better use mik's CM 7.1 ROM. i had used it for almost 4 months with no issues. If you are a heavy user of 3g or 2g data, it is recommended that you upgrade your baseband for a slightly better reception, if not, stick to this baseband, and you can flash the recovery via LGMDP tool(link in the post above mine).
I have been using the latest CyanogenMod 7 after updating my phone with the official LG updater, re-rooting, installing Rom Manager, and it's great. Especially with this kernel
