Is there a better ROM than CM7?

Do you want funtionability or wow factor? I vote powerwash v1.2 for functionability and JT's Vanilla gingerbread for wow factor. I will warn you... there is a issue with gingerbread leaked roms(cm7, miui, vgb, aosp) frying sd cards.

I agree, if you want everything to work correctly and be iron clad go with Froyo based roms. I personally like the Evil Fascination. But the Com Rom2.1 has more features and customization. But once JT figures out the GB roms they will be what you want.
This where I'm a bit of a n00b...
Right now I have CM7 build #19 (the last two haven't downloaded for some reason, they get stuck at around 20%)..
I like the themes I have gotten my hands on with the CM7. I've been told CyanogenMod is the way to go always.
I did have an MIUI ROM for a little while until I got CM7.

Im getting almost 2 days battery life on powerwash with normal usage. If im constantly web browsing, downloading files, or excessive talk time, then 12-14hrs. Basically it seems like my battery life almost doubled vs stock.
Here is my setup:
Powerwash v1.2 rom
otb-fusion kernal
ec09 radio
Remember you wont get the best battery life right after flashing a new rom. Takes a couple charge cycles...

Quick question: with this ROM, where do I go for themes?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
In the theme section... there isn't a lot of themes on this rom tho. This rom is a daily driver per say.
I like MIUI better than cm7, it's got all the same things working (and broken) and runs just aas well but i really like the look and customizability.
This damn cm7 has made me feel like I'm going deaf at 28. The radio is so quiet.

Hey guys im wondering for the one's who have tried bionix v the old version and the new one, can you give your feedback about it???
in my opinion i dont see a great change of it. and i even think that the old version works better i dont know how about you guys???
Had bionix-v and flashed 1.2 yesterday night. So far I don't see anything different. For that matter, I haven't seen any real changes since Nero 5 which I thought was a great ROM. I just flash the newest because - well - because I can.

Lol yeah me too!! but the Nero rom is the one called nero-5-voodoo??? i have that zip file and never use it.
For me just having the Percent of batterly life number bigger was worth the 2min. it took to flash.
There was no real cosmetic changes just some "behind the scene" changes. Getting geared up for 2.2.1 i guess. I like the no wipe option now although I still wiped.
Only difference I see so far is my GPS isn't nearly as good. Before I start a "GPS sucks" war I am going to re-flash and test again. I want to do a few battery cycles before I flash to see about battery life as well.
If you are a cosmetics type flasher I would just stick with V. If you are an avid updater and ROM whore such as myself then flash away.

the old bionix rom has excellent battery life. I use a combination of bionix v1 with the kb1 modem. Standby battery is amazing. 28 hours with moderate usage (xda, engadget, texting, web browsing, etc). So I am hesitant to switch, I would recommend keeping the old one until 2.2.1 kernel

Yea dude no problem. Hey if you come up with a good combo that helps with the battery life while the phone is awake, pm me and let me know your ideas. And so far bionix v has been doing wonders for me but axura has a kb1 based rom out and I can only imagine it will be good. I choose to have bionix because I DESPISE axuras theme.. lol
Ps. To test your battery life just download the battery left widget and check it every once and a while. Once you use your phone (from 100% to 0%) the readings from the app will be fully accurate and can tell you how much battery you have left and how long. The battery accuracy is set as you lose battery, so the more you use it, the more accurate. So to test your combos use this widget to determine battery life and which ever one has the most hours, should be the best. It will take a while but it will be worth it lol

Nero 5 v Bionix V
I can only compare Bionix V to Nero 5.
Both are very close. Battery is much better on Bionix 5. Was using KA7 modem on Nero 5. Just installed KB1 modem on my Bionix 5. Will have to see how that works out. So far I can tell that I get a better signal and faster D/L and U/L.
I am getting lower Quadrant scores on Bionix (1300)compared to Nero (1500) on stock cpu not overclocked.
Overall I am happy with what I got so far.

If you buy 3rd party batteries (eBay, other sellers) using Froyo, the phone will display a "non authorized battery" warning and won't charge the phone.
Since this is a software protection, there must be a workaround/fix... but what is it?!?
Check out the Imnuts Kernel's or JT1134's Kernels they both have support for non-oem batteries.

Awesome, thanks! I have the 2 month old cleaned up fascinate froyo rom. Can I just update the Kernel or will I have to wipe and install a fresh rom?
I'm not sure if they work on the older froyo. You might want to update to the EC01 Rom and radio. It is a lot less buggy and seems to run faster.
I'm running EC01 with comavolt voodoo and my phone is running very smooth

Do I need to install one of the kernels you recommended? Do I just Odin/CWR it in?
Isn't your battery life terrible though --staying with eb01, I mean.
On ec01 I just hit 30% after 8 hours of semi-idle use,2 hours of intermittent Internet usage, another 4 hours of idle in bad reception, and a 3 hour phone call.
I'd say that's pretty sweet.

I get a full day now since flashing the comavolt kernel. I have been holding off on ec01 waiting for the new community rom coming. I might just go ahead and flash ec01 tonight though and see how the battery does for a few days. Just that it got so much better after flashing the comavolt that I have been hesitant to change.
EDIT: Well just flashed the ec01 radio and the new imnuts -100 nv kernel, still using sc 2.9.2 rom. All I can report for now is everything is working good. Too early to report anything about battery life, will let you know in a few days.

Which one would you guys recommend to me most?
I'm currently on Bali, have been for about 12 hours, and its given me a few hours extra on battery life, but i'm wondering, is Glitch even better? I don't like to flash things I don't need.
So you guys tell me.
This is to help me, AND others that wonder the same question...
Havent tried bali yet. Luuuurve glitch tho. Voodoo color is a plus and my battery life is much better, about 5 hrs more than stock redux. But as doon as bali gets voodoo color [which is soon] ill try it.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Well, I'd say glitch is for the more technically/tweaking due to it have voodoo color, up to 1.7ghz oc, insane work into UV and oc stability based on your chip quality.
But Bali might have slightly better vibrant specific support since it's from a mostly vibrant oriented dev. But Bali might be more generic in the features it has (this sentence is not meant to be read as a knock or rude in anyway).

I never got how to flash a kernal. 2 years into android and I'm still clueless-__-. Do you flash it like a normal rom? I have miui running. Do I just flash? Wipe?
Im fairly new to flashing kernels as well, but you DL it, put it on your internal SD and flash it like you would a rom. Thats all I did when I flashed Bali.
So far no real difference on Bali, my battery drain on cm7 is still terrible but I just flashed it today so Ill give it a couple more days
I always had crappy battery on Glitch, and I'm talking 8-10 hours completely unused. Bali is vibrant-specific and gives MUCH better battery life, 15 hours and still had 30% left.

for bali, you do it normal, and for glitch to be safe, theres a script you have to download, and first flash that, then the kernel.

IDK if there's a version for Froyo ROMS.
Glitch is for CM7, specifically, idk if it will even work for miui- you need to pay attention to the title, which i never read.
but it is for 2.3 roms as far as i know, and there MAY be one for froyo in the future if enough people contact the developer asking for it.
Hello,
I have got the itch to try a GB ROM again. I'm currently running Project V and it's great, but i want some change. I tried CM7 RC1 when it first came out and couldn't deal with the horrible battery life. But I figure it's been quite a while so things may have improved since then. What would be everyone's suggestion on the best one? I don't like crazy themes or anything. I'm just looking for a stock GB look with decent battery life and stability. Thanks in advance!
I want to know this too!

Calm down now, it's nothing personal. I'm sure it runs just fine. I just like the stock GB look.
The cm7 have drastically improved battery is on part with most other GB roms. I personally love Miui revamped LE it is incredibly fast and the developers are extremely active in the forum. Along with that they update the ROM every Friday and you always think there is no way it can get better but somehow they always seem to exceed expectations

Biffmod
I personally find Simply Honey to be a bit much as well (no offense explodingboy, just not to my taste). So, leaning toward a stock-ish ROM, I recommend Biffmod Vibrant. It's basically CM7, but with a bunch of tweaks to fix the common complaints and a stock look. Here are the changes:
Features:
*Mix of AOSP/cm7 - 2.3.5
*black launcher2
*black camera
*notification widgets
*overclock capable kernel (1.7ghz)
*voodoo color and sound
*BLN/LED Notifications (on by default, the BLN app is not compatible)
*Ricktips
*glitch kernel HL thanks TK-Glitch

I've been using it ever since I switched from my HD2 to the Vibrant, and it's a dream. The only issue I've encountered is a "problem" with the overclocking: the kernel says it can go up to 1.7Ghz, but in my experience it tops out at about 1.4Ghz before the phone starts to freeze up. Other than that, like I said, it's great—I fully recommend it.

I just wanted to chime in, I've tried your rom before and it was fantastic (in fact, i think it was the first one to have bln fixed when all the other roms had broken bln). However, I was past my honeycomb theme phase and is looking for a more stock gb (or close to it) look now. I constantly search for themes for your rom that can make it look like stock but to no avail I think if you added a stock theme zip, you will be able to increase your user base by quite a significant amount of people.
It's great--I easily go a whole day with moderate to heavy Wifi usage (I don't have data) without having to plugin.

I ended up flashing Biffmod last night. It is amazing so far. So smooth and I haven't had a single issue yet. I also ended up flashing the newest Bali Kernel and have it UV'ed quite substantially. We'll see how it does on battery.
Thanks for the advice.
I personally prefer CM7 or Bionix 1.3.1
Every GB rom I've tried has not had a working GPS. I travel for a living so I need this to work. I have since gone back to 2.2 so my GPS works but out of curiosity, is there a GB rom/kernel that supports reliable GPS functionality?
I could be wrong but I think some of the gps work. GPS worked fine for me on Simply Honey 5.0, which I loved. I liked the themeing, especially the pink theme made to go with it!! I just decided to give Trigger (GB not Froyo) a try and I am equally happy with it. GPS isn't a huge issue for me, but I noticed on Trigger I get locks but they are not accurate, usually within 100ft. I also haven't tweaked any of the settings or tried any of the fixes. There are lots of great GB roms out there...just play around and see what suits you best. My Vibrant has always had great gps I've read that some GPS just don't work well on Vibrants.
I personally really like the AOSP GB Roms, Trigger, CM7 and MIUI are all great... have not tried Biffmod yet, but I intend to sometime.
Kernel-wise, I really like Glitch V11 HL
No problem!

It's not a kernel issue. It's just that your vibrant cant handle the overclock as all devices overclock and undervolt differently
Just out of curiosity, which ROM do you guys prefer?
Its all personal opinion but I prefer unnamed. Battery life is great...which is what I want. Never had a reason to change so I can't speak for other roms.

SensatioN because Crysis is the man.

I've literally been on every rom available for the SGH-i777. When I look for the rom that makes me happy, I look for the one with the most complete features. The only one to make me completely happy with battery life and features was UnNamed v2.0+. this rom is always kept in the most stable with almost a next day release if someone complains about anything. That's what I love about this rom. When people were having stability problems with the latest Entropy Kernel they changed it up and downgraded the kernel that very same day! Also, who was the very first rom to feature a working NFC?! GTG is a very friendly guy, ignores you if you dont get around the thread though, but its fine because if you question has been answered, why answer it again? Search next time!!
Anyways. Prior to UnNamed, My favorite was personally GalnetMIUI, official build with Task, the only thing that really kept me away was its instability, such as the screwed up headphone bug, which seems to be in CM7 pretty badly. (WHY HAS NO ONE FIXED THIS?) and the fact that there was no NFC, seems to be lacking features, and a lot of them. With MiLocker, I seem to be happy with UnNamed, I don't run into any problems except a delayed lock screen but meh, Who really locks there phone just to unlock it a second later? Lol.
So seriously, UnNamed 2 for the win !!

WiFi issues are resolved for his and my ROM sir
I ran Unnamed all day yesterday, but I switched back to MIUI. I just think MIUI is more polished than any stock ROM, and has more features that make the phone more enjoyable to use. The battery life has been great, and it's been very stable. Every now and then I get the urge to try something else, but I don't really see a reason to switch.
i put UnNamed on mine first and really liked it but wanted more ICS flavor, so i switched to ICScrewD. really like the jkay app that comes with it. both were very stable for me and didnt have any problems, the only reason i switched was for visuals
I have tried and love all the roms. I finally settled with miui. All the features and menus just flow. It's fast stable had great battery life and has tons of themes to choose from. I might be biased since I ran miui on my captivate and just got used to it. I do change the launcher and run go launcher.

Been on unnamed since day one, but recently switched to ICScrewed, and I'm liking them about the same so far, though I'm warming to ICScrewed.
I do like that ICScrewed has more bloat removed, and I LOVE jkaymod. If you want more customization, try out ICScrewed.
