What ROM are you using? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, just a quick census of who's using what right now on their SII's.
Just leave your ROM name and why you like it.
Thanks
[POLL]

I use my rom!

For a best poll you should include stock Rom (indifferently of the kernel).

VillainRom is the best so far.

Stock!!!

Don't forget to add this ROM in the poll: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220283

Is there a way I can edit the poll then?

Stock, I only know 2 custom Roms.

Stock, ofc

using Leomar75 2.7.1 with CFroot kernel
this is the first custom rom I ever use, I read a lot of posts on here
I was choosing between Leomar and TxP
and finally decided to settle on leomar as it's easier to use , good reputation, kitchen app and don't compromise on performance like TxP do.
so far I feel satisfy with LeoMar : )

Stock 2.3.4.

You need to add Gingermod and Lidroid roms to your list.

Batista 70 + Galnet MIUI

Stock 2.3.5 KI8, with a few customizations e.g. CRT effect and some icons replaced to look nicer

Stock rom... xxki8 nordic country. 2.3.5..

[Q] Custom ROMS vs Stock

Do all Custom ROMS for all the positive features they may bring always result in less stabililty than a Stock ROM?
I imagine CM7 to be the best....seeing as he works for Samsung also. I certainly found it the best when I had the I9000/Galaxy. However looking at the CyanogenMod forum there are plenty of people raising issues with the builds (including 'stable' builds).
I really enjoy trying different ROMS usually but I am deliberately sticking with a rooted stock at the moment - and it has never froze, crashed or rebooted itself yet! I do miss fiddling with my phone though!
Thoughts/opinions appreciated.
Thanks
criskelo 31 + latest siayh - no problemo )))
Yes.

If you want a stable rom, then use the one in my sig. Oxygen is amongst the most stable roms that are out here. It's almost bugfree, because the creater of the rom, Adam G is a perfectionist.
You have no touchwhizz, just stock android that works. If you are looking for a shiny rom, then this one is not for you. If you want a stable rom and an almost bug free rom, then this one is for you.
ps you won't find this rom on xda, because he does not want that anymore.
Samsung Galaxy SII
try this combination...
*CheckROM Revolution HD v3.1.1 (fast and lite)
*Speedmod-kernel-s2-k2-18-test8-CWM.zip (best battery life)

CM7 works fine for me..The nightlies are more stable and bug free than the stable version(RC1).

Is that rom based on CM?

I don't know if you can say that. It has some coding from CM, drivers etc. But it is supposed to be a stock android rom, the way google intended it, with (almost) no CM stuff.

What's the most stable and fully functioning custom ROM for the Ace?

I want to instal a custom ROM for my Ace. I have the latest firmware available for my region installed -2.3.3. What's the best custom ROM out there? Best in stability and full functionality.
Please, bear with the question as I'm just a beginner. I did search and Google the topic but it didn't come up with results I could be sure of. Also, I have never installed a custom ROM before and that's why I'm being careful and hesitant.
Thanks in advance!

Not another of these questions again.....
The best ROM is the one that fits your needs
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.
I have tried many roms but i prefer ics final (no tweak). Its the fastest rom.
Here it is

Best stable roms are stock based roms
best functioning rom based on cm
so not any rom 100% perfect you need to make it perfect

+1 The Beautifull ROM is MIUI. Haha_
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414779 for me this one is pretty good especially the battery life
Yep, there is no best roms, but I prefer Gingereal. Good battery life, fast (not the fastest But trust me, fast enough...), stock roms and last but not least, no bugz, everything is working perfectly...
But it still up to you!

[Q] What's the best ?

I got my Galaxy ace a half year ago .. and I tested nearly every rom / mod & theme .
but I am quite searching for a rom that has the best performance, the best speed and it should be very stable - without lags. It don't need to be themed - it can look like a stock rom.
Thx for your help xda-team ♥
Choose stock....like me, i know there will be more comment after me saying custom is better (of coz, they made it)
But until now no custom rom is stable...
I use stock wxks6 then convert to ext4, plus...cf-root kernel and lagfreeV2 script....all working well.
Owh, and now using miui launcher...cool

oh nice thank you for now . . . i will check that out
After having tried many.
The Rom custom of the TheMyth (devilsking) are the best.
always the same functionality as stock.
ICS Final hands down. After flashing some other roms and looking around, this rom is by far the most stable and fastest I've tried. Never had any problems with the rom and I've been using it ever since the Final version came out. The only problems I've had are with random apps and such, never with the rom itself. Got a champion right there ;D
Highly recommend it.

Good, good. Poll showed up. CM9 all the way.
Who uses ICS? That's what I voted, currently happy with GB and Verts beautiful theme. Will wait for a more stable/official release before moving to ICS. My setup is stable and works like a charm.
I also use GB, but i did use airbus 360s rom wen i did run ics, so i voted for other ics rom.
andyx rom ...... just awesome.
Have been using REMIX but am considering CM9 seeing the current results!
Every andyx rom since 3.0. I hope noone ever has to look at my flash counter!
CM9.
I have found the battery life, performance,and overall stability astonishing.
Outstanding work from the team.

LPB?
No option for stock ICS on your poll.
Stock LPB is the best ICS ROM yet for the sgs2

I am on Remix using Aus i9100t. I am a fairly heavy user and have always run custom roms. Remix is a nice rom, but not quite ready for daily use in my circumstance. Its only little issues like random lags on dialing and answering plus USB storage via PC not working (mtp OK but slow). Apart from that, fast and fluid. I want to try another but I hate configuring after wipes!!

Andy and Simlistics are the same
Only the signal/batt bar is different..
Andy is using Simplistics rom..
Pure ICS is my personal fav, comes across as a very good ICS rom based on Samsung ROM, but skinned nearly 100% like CM9
Fast simple, and stable.
now using Deep Core ICS rom , but will try AndyX rom lately

[Q] SGS3 I9300 International. Looking for a rom that fits me

Hello,
I just joined XDA im on this forum for a week now and i kind off like it. I decided to root my phone because i want more battery life and AOSP like phone.
I have an International Samsung Gakaxy S3 i9300 with CM 6 recovery.
Rooted ofc
I searched all week for a rom but just couldnt find one for my needs.
So can you help my guys by finding a good rom and kernel for me? and im on the base version i9300DXELK1.
What i need:
AOSP Look rom, like the nexus phones.
Best battery life possible
Customize my rom (doesnt have to be in the rom, its cool to download a ZIP theme and flash it (the rom needs support. I tryd with foxhound but the foxhound options were missing with a theme it was the JKAY theme, I just want to have a high theme choise, and diffrent icons you know.)
Able to install mods etc.
AOSP Apps, like camera dailer, messaging, etc etc.
AOSP Lockscreen (Not the 4.2 widget one)
What i like to have:
4.2 Sphere camera.
4.1 Toggles on notification bar.
Able to mod my rom.
DPI Changer (dont need just like to have).
I am also looking for a good kernel that even more gives me more battery life. Im running siyah, im asking this because maybe theres a better battery life kernel then siyah
Thanks for reading
I hope i made this post good.

try foxhound.although it is jb 4.1.2 you can install swipe keyboard and photosphere camera on foxhound ota.
Foxhound isnt themeable:S And i prefer 4,1 jb im trying slim bean now i kinda like it, but i dont like the launcher because its not the standart launcher.
But final qeustion is there a CM or AOKP 4.1 what is stable (No bugs or almost no bugs) I only see nightlys of it. I think stock cm is best for me isnt it?
Yeah im kinda a critic xd. sorry
i recently started installing custom roms also, i tried cyanogen mod 10 which i found to be ok but a bit of a rough feel. then i tried ultima rom and to be honest its brilliant. if all else fails google
Discussing what the best/most stable/good ROM is is against the rules, reported
DO NOT POST A "What's the best ROM/Kernel/Theme?" THREAD!
