What ROM? Samsung Vibrant - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone. Quick question. What ROm is the most stable for now for Samsung Vibrant. Thank you!

Most stable? Probably bionix 1.3.1 or CM7(911 issues with cm though.)
Ics roms are quite stable for me, minor bugs here and there.

Updated CM7/9 kangs have fixed 911.

So are they going to start officially supporting the vibrant now that 911 issues has been resolved?

That's a hard question to answer at this point in time. Almost every rom is stable for the Vibrant. The question is, what are you looking for in a rom?
Are you looking for customization? Then you'll want to look into roms like Miui. Do you want great battery life? Then you'll want to look into roms like Deranged 9 or Bionix. Are you that kind of person who "has to have the latest and greatest"? Then you may want to check out roms like Passion. There are hundreds of roms to choose from! If you can narrow down your preferences then it will be very easy to point you in the direction of roms you'll like...

I vote bionix great battery

Out of the ICS ROMs, which has the best battery life and has working 911? I don't care about GPS.

Bionix

My vote would be passion if you don't mind the mute and unmute bug

Eh nothing you will really notice. Don't expect a feature filled update.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk
Bionix-V is the older more stable version and the Bionix Frost is the newer, in Beta testing development version.
Another difference is that Bionix-V is based on the software that Samsung put on the Vibrant, while Frost is based on the software that is on the new Samsung Galaxy S 4G. Since the base for Frost was originally made for a different phone, more effort is required to make it work on the Vibrant.

If you want a ROM for the phone that you use daily for real work, go with Bionix-V

Not disagreeing persay but Frost is just as stable. Only issue I've had is a slight menu lag.

I'm sorry but the only way for be to access xda is by the app ans the search function on the apologize is $hit. If it wasn't I wouldn't have posted 3/4 of what I have. But on last question, what's the difference between 2.2 and 2.2.1

I personally like Bionix V. Been using Team Whiskey roms for a while now and they have yet to disappoint. In the end, its just a matter of preference.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Bionix-V seems to have very few bugs. The bugs people are reporting, most users cannot duplicate their problems. Frost, well it still needs some tweaking before it's ready as a "daily driver" as stable/fast as Bionix 1.3
i've tried both. after enabling voodoo on the latest frost, i've noticed a considerable difference from the initial build. bionix is ULTRA stable. there is no doubt that it is the more stable of the two. however, IMHO i haven't noticed a huge difference between the speed or usability of either...if you would rather deal with less "potential" bugs, then i would suggest you go with Bionix V.

What's the best ROM out right now???

I'm currently using the latest Sombionix Rom and I want to check out some others. Can u guys point me in the right direction please... Thank u!!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
All of them lol cm7 , trigger, bionix, and bi winning with bullllllllllet .
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I started with Bionix but I just recently flashed Trigger. Trigger is pretty rad.
Same here. Ran several versions of Bionix, got bit by the flashing bug and switched to Trigger. Been running the Overstock kernel for a while but am about to try out Bali.
Let me answer your question with a question:
Which make of car is the best?
If this thread stays serious long enough you will find, like most "Which is the best (insert any tangible object here)?" threads, every ROM will get a few hits.
/sarcasm off
On a serious note I have gone between Eugene's ROMs, Sombionix's ROMs and a few of EDT's ROMs. They all have their perks and for some they all have their short comings. If you want the custom ROM feel with a relatively painless installation, go with the one of the above. If you want something a little more custom go with MiUi or CM7 or a few of the other projects.
I personally use Trigger 2.9.4 with OverStock 2.x and enjoy it quite a lot. In the past I've enjoyed Eugene's MacNut series, nearly all of Som's 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs and EDT's Flagship and Trigger.
tl;dr
Pick one yourself and see how it goes, restoring from a backup isn't all that difficult.

The devs in this forum are so amazing, and their ROMs of such quality, that you owe it to yourself to try them all to find out which you like the most.
well since its already been said like 5 times, I'm just going to agree that I put on trigger 3 rom a few weeks ago and have been running overstock kernel for a while before that. but the 2 together. un-freaking believably awesome.
I repeat.. *ehem*

i think this is made for gb roms like trigger Redux 16 which is what im on
Sensation is a ROM based on 2.3.4 JVQ gingerbread. It's currently in beta stage with a few bugs. And very beautiful theming.
I assume the actual theme itself will also be ported for other JVQ ROMs.
What on earth is KG3.
Our current roms are based of JVQ,JVP GT-I9000
Will it even work??
It's been ported for our vibrant. There are a few bugs, but it's VERY beautiful and pretty dang quick.
i9100 is SGS II and KG3 is GB leak for it

Will this work on which roms exactly? Malice, RevolutionRom, Redux, CM7?

Best FroYo ROM

I havent used a FroYo ROM in quite sometime because i moved onto CM7 and now ICS, but i got my mom a Vibrant today and i was wondering what the most solid and fastest ROM is, I remember Bionix 1.3.1 was always great, but has anyone made a super killer FroYo ROM that you would suggest?
P.S. I am just looking for something that works with no kinks, GPS Working and good battery life.
Bionixxxx
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Yep, I'd go with Bionix if you want a good, solid ROM with no kinks. I ran it for more than six months, and I loved it. Good GPS, great battery, just a solid ROM all around.
Link to thread here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925548
I've run the gamut from 2.1-4.0 roms for our Vibrant, but Deranged 9 is my favorite. Great Battery life, working GPS, support for tons of themes once it hits final and as fast as CM7....

I have been running Toxic8 for the past six months. Very fast, smooth, best battery life I've had out of the 4-5 ROMS I have run. Lots of options and flexibility. Definitely worth looking at.

Seriously, I know its my rom, but its probably the most stable and up to date (last updated on Black Friday) froyo rom we have rolling around. I am running ICS currently, but I do still support ZD, in the rare occasion that support is needed. There are also vanilla froyo and gb themes available, with or without a multitude of lock screens thanks to contributions from the community.

he meant deprecated, not depreciated. meaning, it is old, out of use, and has been replaced (i.e. obsolete due to a newer, better version). i'm guessing 'deprecated' got autocorrected.

That's true. It's like asking which ice cream flavor is best. So try a few and see what floats your boat. But be careful though - if you start with ZenDroid you probably won't get around to flashing anything else.

I agree with Br1ckd. Zendroid is stable, smooth and the battery life is amazing. Bionixx is good too no doubt but Zendroid seemed to give me better battery life.

Best
I think Bionix is the most solid to date, but thats stating that we haven't perfected a 2.2.1 rom!!!
I am surprised no one has mentioned either Toxic8 or Deranged9. I have had nothing but solid, stable experiences on both if them. I feel that nearly all the Froyos are about as stable as they can get at this point.
ICS has taken over as the flavor most wanted, so not much on the future horizon for Froyo.
They all felt the same....just different features...

[Q] Barebone (i mean barebone!) ROM based on 2.2?

Ok, sorry to bring this Q here. I know i know - go look, search, find out. I hear you.
Been researching for a full day. But somethings require YOUR experience.
I am looking for a stable (!), good-battery (!) and bare-bone (minimal) ROM for my Vibrant.
(maybe my hate from running background stuff comes from ignorance, since I am no wiz when it comes to android)
I use GMAIL, Whatsapp, and Google Voice, and I can't stand running processes
Is there a ROM that you know to be made with this in mind?
Thanks !!!
Bionix 2.2
