Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums and Read THIS
Moving to Q&A

sorry admins

Well, I think we all remember what it was like being new to ROMS and flashing. I certainly could have used some advice
The only ICS based rom out is an alpha some bugs are present in it however. Link below, they've cancelled development, until CM9. Full description on the website.
www.sgs2ics.com
If you like a ROM with some nice tweaks and great battery life then I would check out ANDROIDMEDA. Thats what I'm using, very happy with it. Might be in the other 'Original Development' forum.
Hope it helps

I think the main problem with such threads is that they usually get closed down by the admins because it all comes down to personal preference. Well that is what they say before they lock them.
They advise users to experiment to find what works for them. Seriously, I've seen about 3 of them closed in the last week.
BTW, I use checkrom. Very good and easy to customise with its kitchen app. Give it s go...it has it all.

-that camera mod, i dont really know what it is, but it seems cool
- overclock
- call record

Is it that hard to look for yourself? Every rom has a description about their functions. This is not a helpdesk.
And then this:

Rule number 1: If you don't know what you are doing, then don't do it. Read, search, learn. Then you are ready to start messing with custom roms.
Well u dont have to rude to anyone who is ASKING QUESTIONS in a Q&A thread....if u cant answer him....dont reply....IS IT A THAT DIFFICULT THING TO DO ????

Go through the roms and flic through the pages of each roms threads. I wouldnt read them all as some have a fair amount of post. Just read the rom features and look for any problems that people have had or have been fixed.
I liked the litening rom alot and never really had any problems. Now im running skyrom v9 and altough i have a few minor niggles i love it but you mite not like either.
There isnt a "best rom", just "personally best rom" if you get me and personally for me its skyrom v9

The BEST MIUI ROM?

All the ones I try seem to have some sort of issue and are too temperamental for everyday use.
Has anyone got a stable MIUI ROM with few problems that can be used permanently?
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
dude ,test every miui rom that you find on the whole internet and decide what you like ,because there is no best rom or anything like that .That's why it's named custom rom , to choose yourself ,your decision in making your mind with what miui rom to use.
This is a good place to start http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529173
or try this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535793
ICS versions are not stable yet...
By the way you dont know the Questian "Which is best" is banned on the XDA.....
Flashing roms, backup & restore with CWM is simple. Not trying a bunch of Miui roms yourself is sheer laziness. Anything else you'd like us to spoonfeed you while we're at it before this thread gets closed ?
To those who are throwing cheap shots, instead of giving advice, get a grip.
If someone knows of a decent ROM, then why am I not entitled to ask, instead of 'wasting my time' trying multiple ROMs.
Some people on here are so arrogant it's unbelievable.

the best rom queston is one that members will generaly not give you an answer to, as each rom will meet the needs of members in diffrent ways. the two links above are the best answers you will get. Also just ignore any comments that are just having a go, you have every right to ask the question and if a Mod thinks other wise then they will remove the thread.
Just try the ROMs until you find one you like, if you're too lazy to do that, you definitely shouldn't be posting on this website

[Q] Rom with skilled devs for SGS2?

Hello there,
Question for people who tried more than 3-4 roms for sgs2:
I'm looking for a rom with an upkeep for this phone, but it is really hard to get oriented in the development forums here.
I'm not looking for a rom with a great theme and fancy icons - I'm looking for a rom with real devs standing behind it. Which one?
Please no "use search" or "try them all" replies, thanks trolls!

Not trolling... but did you even SEE the last thread stickied at the top of Q&A? Maybe you should give it a read.
I've seen it - that's exactly why I'm not asking for "teh superleet rom????", but a rom that has devs behind it, not just some derivative work that those forums are filled with. Maybe something outside the xda forums? Dunno. It's impossible to find a great rom for this phone without spending months on the forums.
Simple reply with name of the rom will be sufficient answer, thanks
Cyanogen if you like the AOSP look - obviously a lot of good devs behind it. AOKP ROMs are worth a look too. I've tried both HyDrOG3N and Hydra-H²o (currently on the latter). The whole AOKP experience is very polished, very impressive.
As for Samsung based ROMs, HyperDroid and CheckROM are the two that stand out for me. Neither have released any ICS ROMs yet, but their GB releases were both very good.

Posting in Q&A section will help you more. Also questions like this are kinda dumb cuz no one knows answers to it. Google is your friend here.

this thread will definitely get moved
I have googled around...
MIUI Scotland posted a message on twitter a few days ago, saying they were basically working on the SGS3 version of MIUI.
There's also a dev attempting to port MIUI based on a thread which is called "how to port MIUI to your device".... but don't think he has got very far yet...
Aside from that, there is absolutely no news otherwise.
Sorry I can't link you up just now (tired...)
rest assured it's on it's way.. just takes time unfortunately.
Sorry for my post was not in the right place, Mardos and Ceo.mtcl
Stupid Question, not as long as it a portage would perhaps could be possible, I well see the responses of the section...
Thank you for your response, friends
If a moderator that passes by, can move in the appropriate section, I thank him in advance.
This is a very good news (for Miui on the GS3) and an excellent response, thanks much for this information, Kikassdave :victory: !!!
There is no problem, Kikassdave, you gave me lot of information and damage that it takes time, unfortunately...

Really? We don't need this kind of attitude. MIUI isn't just about the iphone-ish UI. You can just change the launcher if you don't like it. Most that wants it look for it's functionality and ease of use. Cyanogenmod might as well have those features also, but to each his own. This is what android is all about anyway; the option to choose if need be.
OP is asking a question, and instead of berating him, either help him out, or keep quiet if there is nothing to contribute.
MIUI is the best looking rom and on my SG2 the most stabile rom too. I could by a phone depending if its a miui rom for it or not.
Actually it's on its way very soon trust me

It's amaze me hw people talk about "this room is the most stable". Even with custom rom (exept CM7 alpha on my sgs) i never had any "random reboot" or "unexpected crash".
Anyway, i dont like MIUI style, but it's what android is all about (for us anyway) choice, if some user like it, why not.

[Q]Best ROM based on JB from samsung

Hello,
I will get soon my S3 and I would like to know if there is a best ROM (very smooth and very stable) based on JB from samsung? I don't want hybrids with ICS or UI.. I only want a good ROM based only with the ROM from samsung. A very light ROM without those useless apps and stuf to make my phone very smooooth . Is there any? cause as so far I didn't see any in this forum, most of those ROM here based on JB yes but everything with ICS or MIUI :x. Please give me some advice. Thx.
I'd recommend to read as you clearly haven't - hint: read the sticky threads.

I would agree with the others, you need to start reading before posting. There are ROMs that are cut down, you must have missed those along with the forum rules.

This is true! OP i suggest you contact a moderator, and request your thread to be closed otherwise people are just going to come here and be abusive....and for future reference, 'best rom' threads arent looked upon lightly so its best to try a few for yourself and see which one feels right for YOU.

Nothing wrong to ask about it. Creating a thread specifically asking about 'best rom' is against the rule.

"Best" is relative. That means, this thread is relative, you are asking for a relative answer - Best can mean something different to everyone, therefor this post is spam or unwanted. Reporting.
In my opinion, there is no "best" JB ROM, for the GS III, before that ca happen, Samsung needs to give the devs the Exynos Processor Notes.
Each JB ROM has it's ups and it's downs...
