[Q] Best ROM for SGS II? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm looking for a ROM for my i9100. I'm growing tired of MIUI (original and galnet) bugs. I'd prefer the one that has TW4 on it. I love CyanogenMod's options, but I prefer TW4 over Android stock.
Any suggestions?

Try Leomar Revolution
i try all rom and it's the best for me

Tw can't be the only thing you need there must be more
Try OMEGA ROM

Try ForumSearch ROM v6.9. It's the best I've used so far. There's also AH_WhoCantSearch ROM, but I wouldn't recommend it, it's really unpopular.

Best post ive seen for quite a while...

im on criskelo rom..pretty good with jkay setting and now with TSM..
ive tried leomar and it not suit me bcoz it cant run some of Tegra and Gameloft games even with few kernel changes..
with criskelo everythings running smooth
but honestly i dont really like the theme..

[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).

will this Kernel work fine with CM7??? I mean will the battery life still be the best or at least better?

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.

[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.

[Q] Too much ICS Roms, please help (looking for smooth experience)

Hi,
I tested some ICS roms about two weeks ago but went back to GB checkrom v6 very quickly. It was laggy and not very responsive screen. So now I want a very smooth rom, good responsiveness. It should not be a Samsung bloated rom. So something AOSP based I guess. Is there anything you would suggest?
Thanks!

Don't be lazy. Make a nandroid backup of your phone so you can recover if something goes wrong or you don't like it, and try them yourself. Your phone, installed apps, and usage patterns will not be the same as anyone else's.
I will be surprised if this thread stays open for much longer.
Palm OS.
I would strongly recommend Thebyani rom v3.9. v4.0 due shortly.

If you come to XDA-Developers.com and you can't even be bothered to flash the ROMs yourself and make up your own mind, you might be in the wrong spot

Which Rom do you prefer and why!!!!!

Hello peeps,
Virgin flasher here and need some help or opinions.
I know I should probably just flash the roms and try them out myself but want to get an overall consensus on what you guys think
before I try them out myself.:laugh:
Out of the following 3 roms, which do you prefer and why?
Omega
Rgui
Checkrom

Yes. Omega is nice. I have tried CheckRom, CM9, AOKP. If you like pure Android experience you can try either CM9 or AOKP, else you can flash Omega, it has a lot of mods from its kitchen. The only downside of Omega is the CSC is only based on Europe.
I would go for Omega, Foxhound or RGUI. RGUI`s dev gh.rohit is very commited, builds good rom`s and is very helpfull, if he can help you he will.
But it`s best to try out for yourself, everyone has his favs.
Fox Hound SUPER stable....
Im liking RGUI MiUi V2 right now though. Great Dev and Rom!!!
Closed, rom comparison or "best" rom threads are highly discouraged on XDA, as one person's favorite rom, might be another's least favorite.
Everyone has different needs, flash the roms and find out yourself.

[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.

Slim bean is awesome. Apparently you can get massive battery life with other kernels too.

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!
