[Q] rom recommendations - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! i just recently rooted by thunderbolt for the first time and i was just wondering if anybody had recommendations for roms that i should try out? also for those roms, in general, is it ok to flash to my phone using clockwork mod? thanks!

cm7 for a more stock android feel or miui because its awesome

Clockwork is fine. Many great roms, imo's lean kernels work great

I really like cm7. Check out Thundershed: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13354-romcust1-27-2012-thundershed-v12-cm720-rc1-android-237/
If you really like sense there are some good roms with that too like skyraider or BAMF

Shiftsense with imo lean sense kernel is a rockin setup.

I tried non-sense for a while, but the Sense Smoothness, Widgets and syncability have me coming back, especially with 2.3 and sense 3.0
BAMF 1.63 was very solid when I was running it. Running the beta 2.0 they have now. I haven't had too many issues with it but nothing like their 1.63
I have Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3 and things have been running smoothly as well. Sense/Stock was also smooth and stable, but I have heard that some custom kernels/ROMs can improve battery life (and hearing some complaints about the Thunderbolt's battery life, I wanted to make sure I optimized it to the best of my ability).
I am running cm7 and it is fairly stable but a bit of work to get working. I can't wait for more updates.

Well before I rooted my phone I love sense but then rooted it I been looking for a no sense. I try bamf and its so good I had the no sense but then try cm7 didn't get 4G working I went back to bamf it took me about a day to get 4g back I was running 1x, after that haven't try cm 7. I like it but the keyboard is so tiny.

BAMF 1.6.3 has a de-sense zip you can flash with it but there are not many no-sense ROMS out yet. The CM7 is in the alpha if you want to try and work with that for a while.
I cant wait for a full stable AOSP ROM to come out but for now I am using BAMF 1.6.3 de-sensed.

Best Gingerbread Rom?

I know this has probably been repeated numerous times in the past but the roms change very often and so i was just wondering what you guys thought of as the best gingerbread rom. I'm currently on MIUI 360 and i like it so far. I havent tried many of the newer nightlies for cyanogen though so idk what those perform like.
Cm7 is best stable rom without gps! Especially with nightlies with rom manager premium

I used Simply Honey 3.6 and was extremely happy with it. Super fast and stable. I had to reluctantly give it up for Froyo though because I use my GPS too much.

[Q] [POLL] What ROM do you use?

So what ROM is everyone using as their daily right now? What have you tried? Why did you choose your current ROM over others?
Rocko... since CM9 camera stopped working for me
Cm9 here. Came from cm7. I'm a flashaholic and I really like how smooth it is. Haven't flashed anything since. Just a couple kernels to see if I like any.

Rocko 3.0,i was running stock for a while but ive tired them all
Currently it's Rocko 3.0 unlocked. It has some blur I don't like or use, but I still like it. Battery life is decent for me and it is quite stable.
I'm a MoPho-er
im running stock unlocked and deodex. with joker kernal 1.03
Stock but rooted
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
As far as stability and usability goes, I don't think you can beat imperium initiative. Its amazing and completely underrated... As for me I can't stay away from cm9 for some reason. Camera pisses me off sometimes but whatever, things get more promising with every release.
I love threads like this as a newcomer to this phone it helps me know which ones to consider I can't vote yet I guess until I upgrade May 1st

Joker's Cyanogen mod 9 because it's near perfect. I'm sure the camera will be working again real soon, so I can live without it for a few days.

Jokers CM9. Its the bees knees.

Skinny 4g ...waiting on the 4g to be fixed....looks promising though

Jokers CM9 all the way. although sometimes i flash back to MIUI but they are both great roms so why not.

So is MIUI. Camera works but still similar issues to CM9
Stock EVERYTHING. Too many issues with other ROM's, so I put everything back and phone works like a charm!
Same here.. stock with Launcher pro..
Gives me 1 1/2days battery nd also 450mb ram free all time

Imperium initiative. Works very well and everything works.
I actually didn't have much problem with the stock rom, except that for me voice command kept starting up out of no where and the audio would occasionally with speed up to chipmunk speed.
Started using CM9 a week ago and I am not going back. Before that it was the stock rooted

Need Recommendations Stockish Rooted Rom

.......
I highly recommend Mean ROM or SOS. I am running Mean ICS on my son's 3D and it is very stable. I use SOS ICS as my daily driver. It is Mean de-sensified. Both are very stable, and very active devs working on them to keep them updated.
If you want ics, cool rom seems pretty stock

Thanks Guys that is two great looking Roms keep suggestions coming.... And by the way i will be using this on Page Plus after I flash it so I am not sure that a ICS Rom will work due to some of the changes made......
Viper
Well try the ics anyway, it should work.
Otherwise, just use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313878

I vote MeanROM ICS too! Awesome ROM!!

Zr3D is the way to go, ive been on this rom since release with no problems at all, and its super fast
Mean gingerbread is very stable, fast, and great battery life if you need GB instead of ICS.

Best gingerbread Rom

Since ICS calling sucks when I have my headphones in & MIUI is getting on my nerves....are there any good gingerbread roms? I'm looking for a great stable goodlooking rom.

I personally like the CM7 nightlies the best out of the GB ROMs I never got it, but I also thought the Xerxes ROM by Jellete would be a good one to try.
Maybe you could try different rooms based on ics. Chimera 2.2 is good, even comes with a beats audio mod in custom installation.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
bumped. Need to know which is the most stable GB ROM, bug free, HDMI working, BT working etc.
