have i read right? JJE going all soft lately? Normally you would rip on someone asking this kinda question
Anyway to OP download a custom rom from the development page and then wait till later tonight or tomorrow and download the ICS theme by Vertumus....Looks even better than the original ICS

Given up mate this forum should be renamed One Flew Over etc etc .
Anyway the guy did put a bit more into his question than just what's best rom .

i do not know if it would work on GB but i have heard that there is an app on the market regarding faceunlock..Like i said above..No need to flash cm9 or any other ics roms at the moment..not stable enough...well for me that is..download a rom then wait till tonight to flash the Vertumus theme ICS style...Much better than proper ics if you ask me..Anyway go into market and then search faceunlock and take it from there buddy

Anyone wanna spare me sometime and suggest a ROM and Kernal.?

Hey guys. I am kinda overwhelmed by the number of ROMs and kernals around. I saw modems too but dunno what they are. Heres my info:
Baseband:I9100DDKE4
Kernal: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555 [email protected] #2
Hope thats alls needed. I wanna try our MIUI. But I saw stuff like bluetooth isnt working there. I dont wanna lose any functionality. Is CyanogenMod my best bet? Are there any other good stable mods I should check out? And whats a good Kernal? Which wont affect battery performance.
Thanks for your time if you reply.

1. Modems are the drivers for the mobile connections if you flash a newer one it can improve your network speed but it really depends were you live etc so it different for every person.
2. If you're a beginner with flashing I wouldn't start with any AOSP ROMs like Cyanogen or MIUI.
3. I would recommend Villain ROM for the beginning. It's clean and basic and it comes with Nimphetamine Kernel. Also the guys there are really nice and like to help if you have some problems.
Hello there OP!
If you want a completely different Android experience, go for the CyanogenMod 7.1 release candidate. Bluetooth and other important stuffs are working, read the thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297557
If you want a very stable ROM with bloatware removed, I recommend you Cognition 1.5.1. The developer only uses official firmware releases, not leaks.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124396
Though before you do all these you do need to have your phone rooted first!

i know mate i been there so i know how it feels wanting to ask these questions...but you have some ideas from myself and other people as well so do your reading and choose the one you want..to be honest if i was you id flash a few before deciding which one to stay with..each thread of the roms that i have used everyone is friendly and everyone is helpful so you should be fine...anything you ever need hit me a message and i see if i can help ya
Thanks you everyone. I was just being lazy. Chose Lite'ning Rom and SiyahKernal2.0. Both should play well right? Will I need to recong. all apps?
Loads of roms available but I'd recommend a rom based of 2.3.5 improvements are better than earlier releases.
Then you can choose from the various kernels and modems to customise.
Once you get the hang of flashing and such you can try out others like cm7, which itself works pretty good now and offers a complete aosp experience.
Touchwiz roms are polished though and work very well. By going to CM7 and such you will lose some stock functionalities such as the good camera app, better stock email, and other bits and bobs.

i think LeoMar75 Revolution Rom v2.7.1 and SpeedMod t41 kernel is the best choice.
battery friendly and really fast!!
no lag in SPB Shell 3D launcher and other apps. also revolution rom is really customised!
(my english is not good as i come from Hong Kong)
GingerMod 0.6. Based on 2.3.5.
Fast. Using Siyah kernel with it. Amazing battery life, amazing benchmark scores.

A ICS rom recommendation?

Hello.
I wanna try a ICS rom but I got lost in all the roms in here .
I tried Neat Rom and Hydrogen and I want to know if anyone have some recommandations for a good ICS rom. I'm currently use Oxygen but it crashes the hell out of my phone.
I'm currently using D4 Rom after trying many other roms, certainly worth a flash. It's stable & fast with no fc's so far.

The one you find most suitable to your needs is the best
You're on the right track.. just keep trying them until you find one you like

[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.

New SGS2

Hi guys,
I'm new in the Samsung scene, I've Always used HTC phones before. My question is not how to flash (i'll first search for it myself), but if anyone could recommend me a rom with the look and feel of the SGS3 software.
I've searched but couldn't find anything i think works 99%.
thx

Try Resurrection remix 2.6.1. Based on ICS and stable as a rock. I'm pretty new myself and been using it for a while.Easy to install and no issues whatsoever. :good:
First of all, are you sure you have an i9100 and not an i9100G, a skyrocket (AT&T or Rogers), a Galaxy S2 LTE HD, etc?
If you do have an i9100, this is the forum for you. If not, try and find your right forum...
I'd look in the SGS2 android dev forums and not the Original Android Dev forums. Alot of cooks have ROMs with SGS3-like themes... And there's possibly a touchwiz5 mod in the themes section. I know the ripple lockscreen was ported too...
To be honest, alot of ROMs exist but it's a question of taste... I know Resurrection remix is a popular one. Alot of people switched to Cyanogenmod when ICS hit though, as ICS wasn't up to par for Samsung's implementation...
Your best bet is to flash a custom kernel with CWM recovery in Odin (Alot of guides to do this) like CF-Root and then grab ROMs and flash them through CWM. If you want a kernel that's able to dual boot, you can use DreamKernel, Siyah, etc. That way you can get one ROM going and test a second ROM as a secondary. Dual booting can be achieved because we have a 500MB partition on our phones that isn't used for anything... Fun, is it not?
And The other rom is pfittech ics rom and is also stable and he is working on stable jb rom as among other devs

wow guys really thanks!!! I'm really happy to get so much information! I can do everything myself now thank you a lot :')
I think i'll wait untill a port of the new JB update for the S3 gets ported
I've always used Slim ICS, very light weight and customizable.

I'd go with rootbox. Just because the dev updates more frequently does not mean it's a better rom. The ones who don't update frequently just mean they don't have bugs to fix...

What's the most stable Jelly Bean Custom ROM?

I'm looking for the most stable JB custom ROM and its kernel, with less bugs. If any of you have some advice please tell me the ROM and the recommended kernel used for that ROM. Thanks.
Posted in the wrong section.
We are humans.we know that no human is perfect.we know that no human is the best.
Here are ROMs.we know that no ROM is perfect.we know that no ROM is the best

I'm not looking for a perfect ROM and I know custom ROMs have bugs that we must deal with, I'm just looking for the most stable one that people ever try. Why don't you just tell me what ROM and kernel suit you best? I can't try everything out. I'm not a ROM tester.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
i think you should ask in Q&A , But i think you shouldn't ask that ,
because you'll not find any specific Answer ,
you'll find some bodies love Cm , and people love Zelly Cream , and more & moooooooooooore @_________@ ,
Just flash what do you think it's better for you :angel:
Don't ask that again man, cause you're insulting the developers. Well see this ROM, I'm using it right now, enjoy.
OP two issues here...
1st posting this in the Development Section.
Obvious reasons...
2nd Asking most stable JB Custom ROM.
Only you can figure this out, due to so many Users having different apps/usage, what is best for them will not be best for you...so you have to do the homework and test & run the ROMs yourself.
Thanks.
