Hey guys just switched from a skyrocket. loving the new phone. just wondering which rom+kernal combination is the best for performance. battery life isnt a concern for me as i have an external battery charger with 2 batteries always charged. also curious if leaving the cpu clocked at 1.6 in performance governer bad for the processor.
all the roms, at this point, perform pretty well. Try one and see if you like it.
I have not even rooted my SGS2 but reading through, I've seen many posts saying UnNamed ROM and Entrophy512 DD kernel are great for performance and battery life. It retains the TouchWiz GUI though.
I've tried many different ROMs that are available right now and I have not noticed any significant performance difference (not OC'd). Maybe my idea of 'good performance' is different from others.
miui with siyah
Please do not post 'best ROM' threads as they quickly get closed and just end up cluttering the forum. There is no best ROM, only the one that works best for you. Do your homework, read up on any ROM you're interested in and then try it and see if you like it.
If you like touchwiz and the stock look UnNamed is great. If you like the look of ICS then ICScreweD is a great ROM. If you want to have an AOSP experience try CyanogenMod 7. MIUI is a whole other unique experience as well. It really depends on what you want.

Though the Touchwiz 4 launcher is closer to ICS than Cyanogenmod is.
Try them all, its pretty easy
use stock for at least one week and then try unnamed first and go around all the custom roms if you want, finally you will end up with unnamed.
important note: backup backup backup if possible copy them to PC after every backup and label them for future ref.

Pretty much, but I noticed Siyah Kernel performs better than the DD kernel. It just isn't stable for me, my phone will not wake up and I have to hold the power button to reboot. Happens once every 2 days.
I personally don't care for UnNamed but I think it's got the most theme support. I've gravitated to mainly going back and forth between CM7 and SHOstock 1.7 with most of the time spent using SHOstock.
I think you'll find you won't be able to detect much difference between the two main kernels we've all been running, Siyah and Entropy; they are both well supported by excellent developers.
But like a few others have mentioned, you need to try them for yourself and pick what makes the most sense for your daily use. Enjoy the SGS2 salad bar!
I'm a new sgs2 owner and have tried basically every rom on the first couple pages of this forum. UnNamed, ICScrewD, ICS'd Out, SHOstock, etc.
My favorite was a toss-up between ICScrewD and UnNamed. I ended up going back to stock however simply due to some wifi issues I had will just about every rom except stock.
Just do as suggested....root it, CWM it, and flash 'til you can't flash no more.
I've been getting great performance and battery life running an older MIUI rom. Haven't updated in a while, it's about 3 weeks old. By far MIUI has the best skins, so if you're after looks, MIUI is where it's at.
Every rom is different, every kernel is different and every phone is different. What works for A, B and C may not work well for X, Y and Z. You have to try them for yourself and see which combo WORKS BEST FOR YOU because nobody can tell you that but yourself.
Thread closed.

They are all good. Try them all, that's going to be the best way to see which you like most.

Stable? Avoid anything that comes from netchip. I don't think any kernel he's posted here has even successfully booted.
Other than that you should be fine right now, it's hard to go wrong.
It's all opinion based. Go to the development forums and read up on all the comments, and come up with a conclusion that way. Or try them all.

Start with Serendipity If you don't like something, you can go from there. I find it to be my favorite.
so far from what I'm reading I like either Serendipity or UnNamed.

That's my choice. Best battery life and all the stock functions are present and stable.

I think some of the less visible stock functions may be missing from Serendipity. I remember over on the Infuse community, a few people were unhappy about the loss of SNS functionality. (SNS is an alternate method of syncing social network stuff like Facebook, its functionality is slightly different from that provided by the Facebook app.)
The problem is that SNS is also known to be a battery drainer - not a horrible one, but it does have a clearly noticeable detrimental effect on the battery.
For 95%+ of people, the social networking functions of the Facebook app are fine and they won't miss SNS at all, plus they'll be happy about the improved battery life that comes from nuking SNS.

They're all derived from stock, except for CM7/MIUI.
Usually the ROM changelog will indicate what has changed from stock. Right now things aren't too divergent as the device has only been out for 3 weeks.
One exception is Perception - that's derived from I9100 stock.
This is generally how it is on any Samsung phone - you have stock-derived ROMs, CM7/MIUI, and in some cases depending on commonality with other devices, cross-device ROM ports from a similar device that receives more frequent updates.

After a lot of time testing and comparing all the custom roms found here in these XDA forums for our
SGS2 i777 phone here is my conclusion:
The very BEST custom rom available for our phones at the present time is GTG's UnNamed v1.04 custom rom.
It has the most features, user customizations and options available at this current time.
I have spent countless hours testing and comparing all the other roms which are currently available for our phones
and found that GTG's rom is not only the best, but also the most reliable and error free when compared to any of
the other roms which are available for our phones at the present time.
If you are interested in the UnNamed rom, it can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1299474
This is strictly my personal opinion so take it for what it's worth. (most likely less than 2 cents)

Cool thanks, I thought so. I do read the changelogs and descriptions prior to flashing. No disrespect was intended as I am glad for all the hard work and development the Devs put in! Thanks for clarifying.
I have a question, These Roms Do they lack functions as to Stock, like I read where one has problems with camera functions so if you use your camera stay with the stock, So can you elaborate which ones has less functions and are any full functional ?
Serendipity 8 is the best Rom I've encountered yet. my battery easily lasts for 30-36hrs depending on my usage of the device.
The rom is clean and runs smooth. try it out.

No. that's not the way to look at it...
For example the only custom rom which has video issues and does not
have all the features and options in the camera when compared to the
stock or custom roms is the CyanogenMod 7.1 rom, but that does not
mean that all the custom roms have camera/video issues.
You need to try them all and see which one fits your needs the best.
Or if you want to be told which rom to put on your phone, go with Serendipity 8.
i would def say serendipity 8. battery life is insane and performace is so smooth

I wouldn't suggest trying it.
I switched to it a while ago from Passion, after a day i went back.
It felt laggy, and not the normal lag but it stuck at one screen for atleast 30 seconds and then resumed what i wanted to do. It is also not up-to-date with the new bug fixes etc neo has made on Euphoria and Passion.
Try Euphoria or Passion, those are the best. I'm on Euphoria right now.
" a Best Rom " question is too subjective. A lot of users love passion, but my device was virtually unusable on the 10 builds i tried. Docs master v2 was solid and stable. Zenwich is a cut above anything else imo. But like i said, it is subjective. Flash them and see what works for you. You have die hards that will swear by what they are on now, so judge for yourself. Also gps is a non issue for me. I am one of the lucky ones..my Gps always works
Sent from My I Screamed Vibrant
For my ICS Passion is a good ROM, but the decission what is the best rom is a is a very personal decision, you can try euphoria or passion or any other rom development section and in the end you will decide, after you do your tests, let us know what is best for you.
I have been looking through the forum trying out a few At&t Galaxy Note ROMs but i haven't tried an AOSP or CM9 ROM and I was wondering if anyone could show me the best one for the At&t Galaxy Note(battery life, customization, stability, everything working, MUST have a GREAT equalizer, and being lag free.):fingers-crossed:
really the bet one is what works for you - each of us have different standards and things we look for in a ROM - best bet is to try it yourself - takes less than 5 minutes to try out a ROM - start in the development thread
I've used Flapjaxx, Perfection and am now currently running AOCP - all worked great for me - some pluses and minuses on each one
but i could see using any of these as my daily driver

I can only say what i recommend as my daily driver is fj's stock by att carrier with h0tw1r3's oc kernel r2.. It is awesome fast. I tried aosp, cm9, hybrid, paranoid, but after all that i missed having spen. I don't use the pen much but when i do its at pretty crucial times. Im going to flash cm9 official right now to try it out but most likely won't keep it. So i advise try few roms for yourself.

I have tried several CM9, AOSP, AOKP and Stock based ROMS. All of them have their merits and I give props to all the Devs who worked hard to make them.
But after trying at least one of each, my personal fav is JamieD's Paranoid Android ROM.
Great on battery, very very stable hybrid tablet interface.
Each ROM provides a different experience for everybody that uses it. The only way to find a "best ROM" is to try them all for yourself and see what is best for you. Anything that anybody tells you otherwise is wrong, as it is a matter of opinion.

:good:
but i kid
Solid words, i've personally poked around on FJ's line of stock roms, team perfection's objection, seraphim-mesosphere-remix, and official cm9, until i switched to cm9, i had always been switching back to fj's roms because of s-pen gestures, but i switched to the official cm9 nightlies and have been making due, all it takes is some back-up apps (if you have data to back up, things like titanium backup and mybackup or your preference [merely said those, because i use them]) and mess around, play with your phone, always good to have a full charge before you flash but not imperitive, and always remember when you switch between roms, make sure you wipe with double ply :3
Personally loving fjs latest build but i really liked the hotwires build and cm9 have the nfc tagging for themes... I didn't get to test it out but that stuff is pretty cool. Just my opinion.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Official CM9 nightly has been the most stable for me so far, and it's very fast. The only thing I can complain about is home screen swiping lags a bit, and when long-pressing a home screen icon to move or delete it, if you have a lot of icons on the screen, this lags a LOT. Does not happen with different launchers. So far every launcher I have tried has something I don't like about it. The silkiest smoothest launcher I've used is sslauncher in The Collective's CP1 ROM. That whole ROM is very buttery smooth and I love its different style. I was very tempted to go back to that ROM from CM9, but so far CM9 has proven more reliable for me. This could just be ME though, as I've only been playing around with this for a couple days. A week ago, I was totally clueless about how to root a phone, how to use Odin/download mode/recovery, or even what any of that meant!
I think when we see these guys stress WIPE WIPE WIPE, it really does matter. I've taken the habit of wiping anything and everything I can, multiple times, before trying a new ROM. This has given me best results so far. I just keep my important stuff backed up on my computer, and I reinstall my apps manually. Not really a big deal, since I often find when reinstalling them, there are a bunch I had installed that I don't really want anymore anyway.
So, what is the BEST?
- If you want the stock ICS experience -> you can find 100% stock ROMs floating around for various carriers.
- If you want the stock experience but don't want the bloat -> XDA has delivered on this front too, there are a few variations of stock ICS with bloat removed, and a few simple really helpful things installed but no heavy customization.
- If you want the highest performance and customization -> The Collective - AoCP - CP1, CM9, Paranoid Android
Just compare the download size of the stock ROMs to the download size of the faster ones and you'll see!
I'm still a noob at this, so everything I said could be totally wack.
Thread Closed
There is no best ROM for a individual users, its down to personal needs. I suggest you take your time and read the threads and make your own decision. This sort of thread never goes well, so i close it.

LI1 is by far the most stable, the others have issues, everything seems to be fine on this one
I just use AOSP ROM's, the speed and smoothness is unrivaled, it wipes the floor with normal TW ROM's, unfortunately there is still the memory leak issue but i think a solution to this will be found soon when all the necessary sources are released by Samsung, i actually don't really miss some Samsung features like i thought i would, speed,smoothness and excellent battery life does it for me and AOSP is the way to go IMO.

i would advice you to try the hypergalaxy 1.2.1 rom its small, BEST battery life so far from any rom ive used, (50% battery after 12 hours, 3 hours on screen) also its quite smooth and nimble but due to lots of bloatware being removed so you would need to download a few add-ons which is okay because they only take a few seconds! Also most of the other roms start to lag even though i clear cache and clear most ram being used a few times a day using titanium backup anways Go ahead and tell me your experience

I have tried Android Revolution since 3.0.0. By now it has hit 8.0.0. It keeps "stuttering" and lagging for me. Gets worse as longer it is running. I did try Resurrection Remix. It was good until I got a release where it was horrible. Which prolly wasn't RR's fault.
Samsung Camera does not work on RRso that is why I switched. Also that the Samsung HX Mod didn't workas well. I have CameraZOOM Fx but it is lagging but that might be the ROMs fault. How is CZOOM Fx better? In what sense?
I am running NovaLauncher at the moment. Which makes it a little bit easier to flash and restore. But it stilla job to do with every switch of ROM. Isn't it?

With that said, what rom/kernel combo have you experience the best battery life with? This thread isn't not meant to say which rom or kernel is better or performance, just what you have personally tried and found to offer the best battery life overall. Thanks

For reasons unknown to me, I always find myself going through a cycle: go back to stock locked, use the phone for a few hours then wonder why I did that, root, install multiple roms, then a few days later relock again.
My opinion bone stock is best for getting the battery life. If course I don't exactly stay put on one thing anyway. ..
