So I just bricked my arc, (I will never again stray from XDA) might go out and buy an SGSII.
Which custom rom should I install from the brief looks I have had, I really like the Astetics of Turkbay it looks beautiful. Exynos seems to be where the functionality is at.
Advice Please

If you read the faqs for each rom you can decide what you want .
Otherwise stick with stock .

CheckROM is simply fantastic... Stable,smooth and customizable...

Flash whatever you like. Your asking such a general question you'll get fans of each rom saying flash this flash that.
Take your pick, try it out, if you don't like it move on.

first you can check the screen shoot of each rom then compare the feature of each one... and go on to install what you like.... after test you can decide to change or stay.

was using exynos before going to checkrom, very happy with the change
I was using MIUI for it looks, but I lost all the functionality and I wanted to come back to stock rom but it sucks. So i found three roms i want to test out.
Hydroxygen by Paradoxxx
WickedRom by Chetan Mohanty
The GingerMod by 89luca89
WickedRom is stock with a lot of changes and upgrades
Hydroxygen is AOSP. Very fast, used with void .echo kernel and its simply the best.
The GingerMod looks very nice as I want an AOSP interface with samsung framework
Trying WickedRom and I'm pretty happy!

I'm looking forward to the cm7 Rom. Just wondering how there are so many other Roms already released how come the Cyanogen Rom is proving to be so difficult?
I'm not mocking the hacksung guys, I know they are doing a lot of good work.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Because the CM build will be very different from the stock samsung ROMS.
A lot of the ROMS available right now are very similar to stock with only a few minor tweaks.
Thats the short and simple answer.
I was thinking that I was just curious.
Hopefully it'll be out soon enough

that depends on the user. seems to be between villain(which comes with villain tweaks), cognitive and litening and a cpl of others that I dont remember offhand..
Then theres the never ending supply of 'Roms' that are basically just themes, with the odd tweak that some other dev created.
I didnt mention cm7 purely because its not released yet.
I'm using Listening at the minute with the tw launcher.
Found adw a bit clunky and I like the Sammy calander widget.
Is the cognition Rom a wipe and flash or can I use odin?

Which ROM out there has the best support and the least flaws? I know none will be perfect but I would like a ROM that is fast,stable, and has optimal battery life. I know i could use the V6 Supercharger to make a ROM faster but I would like to know what ROM you guys recommend? Thanks
For the 10 billionth time: It's really up to you to figure this out. Considering that there's only 4 custom ROMs available (for the 7510), I think you are capable of doing the research yourself.

What the best stock Rom so far regarding smoothness and speed ?
Sorry for hijacking ur thread

I'm going to second the in paris v5, I just rooted and flashed and couldn't be happier. There is one clich that I found and that is on some web pages in browser it will not let you go back with the back arrows, small problem but so far the only one I see.
Task650 makes the best ROM.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
check out the dev. forums, do a little research. If your asking you shouldn't be flashing roms really. All v6 supercharger does in most cases is mess things up
So avoid flashing supercharger? It doesn't take a computer genius to flash a ROM, I just don't have the time to flash every ROM and mess with it, thanks for the positive responses though.

I have yet to see any real proof that the supercharger script actually makes this thing better. I have flashed and run all of the different ROMs, and its really up to you as far as look and feel are concerned.
As far as support goes, I will say that Task and Phantom has been great in keeping us bug free, but I have not interacted with the other devs as much, and so I won't knock their Roms because I can't say what their level of support is.
Happy Flashing
Overcome is good too
I will say that I like both in Paris and Overcome. In Paris has a custom theme which I'm not fond of but you can install the touchwiz theme over it if you prefer. I like Overcome because it is the stock honeycomb theme.
It's really a rather personal choice so you do have to try more than one to decide.

I'm not asking for a 'best' ROM. I'm asking which would be beneficial as a 2nd choice for emergencies, etc.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Not that different asking for a good for battery/best/etc rom. Different kernels and roms work differently on each phone, so just try them out to see which is best. For example, neak kernel is an excellent kernel recommended by a lot of people, but it really drains my battery faster compared to others.

Any, it really doesn't make a lot of difference if you want a ROM "for emergencies" as you say.
You can force the screen to the lowest brightness, throttle the CPU, use a plain black colour wallpaper and not install any apps at all on any ROM.
Btw, thread reported. No matter how you try and disguise it, it's still yet another fail thread from you. It's getting old pretty quickly.

Hydrog3n-ICS is probably one of the best Roms out there for the Galaxy S2.
It is a mixture of Cyanogen and AOKP which is pretty sick.
Its absoloutly smooth, has great features and treats your battery with care.

Hi guys,
I cant decide which ROM i should put on my phone? Can you guys help me?
Which ROM can you guys recommend?
What is the most normal ROM you people put into your phones?
I am sorry I am a biiiig noob, who had a Iphone i the past 4 years.. Everything is new for me..
Can I just put on a new ROM, whotout thinking of my firmware?
Thanks a lot guys..
There is no general "best" rom.u need to try them out yourselves.
But good roms is (themed roms)checkrom, turkbey rom,omega rom or (stock look) foxhound rom, dragonice rebirth rom..
Or try cyanogen mod 9,aokp,miui rom, that is aosp rom build from sources(Google's original)
all is flashed from cwm(clockworkmod) recovery.
download galaxy s3 toolkit to your PC then u get easy access to root, backup,cwm recovery and guide on how to flash rom to your phone..
but read, read and read.. especially the OP on every rom u want to try..
good luck and have fun..
full charge icon and ongoing message
Hi,
Can anyone help me how to disable 100% full charge notification that anoy me very much. I have my phone all day in a desktop charger and I want to get rid of this.
Thanks
Unless you flash an aosp Rom like Cyanogenmod or miui there is not much different between them. Maybe a theme change but performance and functionality is pretty much identical amongst the touch wiz based roms.
Try a few and you'll see what I mean.

Psssssst. There's a new public beta. Click here
Last time on ShishirROM.............After nearly nine months of ShishirROM, there has to be something else. Something better. For weeks I've listened to user input and did a lot of research and development myself. Aberration is the new project I'm working on, and even before it has been out, I can confidently say every user loved it and never wanted to change away. This ROM really does have something for every single person. Based on XWLPM -- One of the earlier Samsung 4.0.4 ROMS, this ROM is smooth out of the box. While Jellybean re-defined smooth, out of every ROM my users have tried, this one is the one that came the closest. It may have something to do with the odexed nature of the ROM, or it may have something to do with the intense resource editing and cleaning to make every app as light as possible. Either way, this ROM is blazing... but not at the expense of comfort. The theme this time was inspired not by some futuristic phone... But by the original Gingerbread Galaxy S2. It's sort of like a combination of the Galaxy S3, Galaxy S2, and the Galaxy Nexus. It's not anything I've personally seen before. The Aberration Settings app finally allows you to change Settings you could never touch on Stock Samsung firmware. Things like the Notification widgets, mDNIe modes, font sizes, etc. And the app is in full development and will be updated as time goes on. What is Aberration exactly? It's the next step of the best ROM for the i777... and soon the i9100.
Features:
ODEXED (for smoothness)
Based on XWLPM
Siyah
Aberration Settings app
Lidroid 14 Quick Toggles
AROMA Installer
Google Now
Lux Auto-brightness
Opensource Sensors library (more accurate and faster)
Holo/Jellybean inspired styling
Apex/GS3/GS2 Launcher
GS2/GS3 Music application
Easy-Update
Samsung Dive
Complete development cycle
Directions:
Install i777 zip in CWM
Wipe Data
Configure installation & install ROM
Reboot
Set-up ROM, download apps, etc.
Reboot again to settle everything
Pictures, Changelogs, Downloads all on the Aberration website.
If you ask me for NFC then I'll unleash a small bear in your house when you least expect it. (we need 4.0.4 kernel support)

I don't think Siyah supports cross-version dual booting yet. If it breaks then don't blame me lol. This release doesn't have flash built-in, but I can make it an option in the Settings app soon.

I have your latest ShishirRom which is i9100. I have the AT&T gs2, and was wondering what the difference between your versions. Will I benefit from going back to the i777 version?

I think the i9100 version is in beta so it will be a little more buggy. Also the i777 version won't have to be hellraised

Pick the i777. The downloads are for the model of the phone you have. Just match the pictures lol
More Information: The ROMs are the same. Flashing the i9100 version will mess some things up -- more than hellraising it can fix because we don't have a proper 4.0.4 kernel yet. But the two versions are the same beneath the skin, I promise
Added a blog part of the website. And right next to the first post in the blog is a little treat Jellybean wallpapers.

After some time with this ROM I am loving it. Smoothest thing I have ever tried! Great job shishir!

I noticed google now listed in features. I'm curious how it's working on this rom/how you implemented it? I tried it via the apk in the android apps and games section when I was on AOKP. While it did work well, not all cards worked and the voice search was not as refined as it is on JB.
