Which one do you like? CyanogenMod/ MIUI/ Replicant/ OMGB or stock?
P.S: You can add your opinions, ideas, etc.
Anything other than stock.

I like MIUI, I've tested MIUI Spain and MIUI Scotland.
The last one is very, very good but these days is closing :-(
Now I'm looking for a good on to my SGS (GT-I9000). Any recommendation?
MIUI for customisation and look.
CM for speed and performance
stock for stability.
each one has its own + and - . so its all personal preference.

MIUI, but I'm currently on ICS stock because the MIUIv4 ports for my device are buggy as hell. I just wish stock had the icon consistency/theming that MIUI has, its the only thing I miss.

Currently CyanogenMod, because of my Xperia X8 is not supported by MIUI and Stock crashes a lot. So CyanogenMod. I actually use a ROM based on CyanogenMod called GingerDX by Doixanh, because of the stock CyanogenMod wants FreeXperia kernel and errors occurred when I was doing it (actually I was trying to flash NobodyAtAll's nAa kernel) and I tried on my Galaxy 5 (now it is my sister's)(Galaxy 5= GT-I5500), it worked after flashing the correct baseband on ODIN Multi Downloader.
I would go with MIUI if there was a working from with no bugs. So atm I'm using ICS

What ROM do you use on your Nexus One?
Another vote for CM due to it's tweakability.
Personal favourites can be found only by testing, testing and testing.
I'd try CM, but it requires an unlocked bootloader, which voids warranty, and disables me from using OTA updates. :/
Same reason as Mattyas: Tweakability.
I like CM to, but unfortunately they didn't make one yet for alcatel ot-990 :-(
I have used it on my Tattoo that I had and it was great. I am still searching for at least some customisations that are on cm.

MIUI = Customizable and better redesigned look.
CM7 = Stock Android look (with exception of Theme Chooser themes) but greater performance and stability.
CM7 always ran much smoother and faster for me but I always loved MIUI's UI. I stick with CM7 just because it is always stable and reliable. HTC Passion (Google Nexus One).
hv tried stock based,cm based n miui based roms for sometime. all of them hv been stable n gud.
but i like miui cos of its customisation. each themes gives a new look to my fone. m jus lovin it

I have used all three types and I have liked things from all of them and found fault in all the same. It all just came down to what I liked the most for what I wanted/needed.
I use mainly MIUI as I love the thousands of custom themes that are easily mixed and matched.
In the end it is always up to what you feel is the right one for you. The best advice I can give you is to try each one for a week and after that you should have a good idea of which one is best for you.
one do you like? CyanogenMod/MIUI
MIUI. I haven't updated to MIUI v4 because I like the theming too much, and there aren't many themes compatible with MIUI ICS.
I've actually been on MIUI for almost a year.

Stock on my Xperia X8 Crashes, Original MIUI doesn't support X8 (There are ports on XDA for X8) and I have tried MIUI on My Uncle's HD2 (but not MIUIv4) (he is not from blood, just for respect and he works at my dad's office) and CyanogenMod wants FreeXperia Kernel and I am using a ROM Called GingerDX, which is based on CyanogenMod 7.1 (and available for the Stock Kernel). So currently CyanogenMod, reasons: Tweaks, themes, etc. (I just like it).
P.S: If I was unfair, then I'm sorry.

Hi all! I really need a rom with fully-working camera, + fast, stable, bug-free, for adolescent daughter, so I ask your suggestions and your knowledge of this phone.
My own phone is Optimus p500, got it modded to my liking, etc. I got the Ace for the ado daugther in the house 2 days ago. She is a facebook, pictures and sms addict. No overclocking or games for her is needed. She needs a simple, stable, bug-free and fast rom. It needs to not bug or FC so she can impress her friends.. Today I have read through many pages and threads of roms, and I had a quick look at what is available. Ics sunday and cm7.2 rc0 by lates would seems among the most promising available.
A working camera is definitely a must for her. If needed I could always get lg camera and try it, as suggested in some roms to see if I can get no dark videos and LED working. [ I'm wondering if camera gives trouble, nobody tried to get stock samsung camera ported? ] Is there a fail-proof, noob-proof 3rd party camera, or is it the LG one, or is there any rom fail-proof and noob-proof, stable, fast and bug-free? [ I realize nothing is noob-proof, but she need stable, fast, bug-free, a good camera with LED flash working, and facebook. ] If there is no bug-free camera rom I know she'd prefer the laggy stock rom because a working camera is essential for her. I'd hate it for her to be " stuck with stock " though.
Also, is there any roms, options or ways to get 3rd party apps to login using facebook credentials ? Most weird issue. Might be a deal-breaker on any rom for noob adolescent daughter..
Any suggestions? I believe you all know this phone way better than me. I could guide you for my own but I'll appreciate the tour guides for the Ace

Stock ROM?
I
Srsly, the most [relatively] bug-free, stable ROM for the Ace would definitely be Samsung's own.
CM7 for Ace has some minor glitches and bugs ere and there, although its reportedly faster. But since your daughter is not too technical (based on my speculation of your description), having too many or too little options isn't a concern of hers.
You can try a custom stock ROM, of course. It (should have) the same stability, but smoother. The most well recieved custom stock ROM here might be fla.sh's X2, codeROM, and TheMyth ICS. But the first two are dead projects with no active developers.
This post was sent from hell.
Gingerreal is the only option plus facebook issue was there own issue. Its not related with roms. Its fixed with newest version. Everything is working perfect on gingerreal. So you can go with that.

CM Permission management is the biggest selling point, I love the fact that is integrated and no need to install extra apps or modify apks, plus the 640*480 video recording, last time I checked stock only lets you record video at 320*480, then of course the pletora of additional features and the coolness level

CM!
Why? (This is just my opinion, i don't wanna pi** anybody off with this.)
Stock has some samsung-only apps like "AllShare" etc. but i dont care about these.
And it has its own contacts browser which supports quick call/sms by swiping over the contact. i really love that feature, but the pros of cm are alot more:
- its looks better (menu effects from ics etc.)
- it has awesome customization options
- it has the theme chooser <3
- and the most important thing: it defo runs faster/better!
i prefer stock based roms

stock FTW
for me its modified stock... Ive tried loads of roms and so far omega rocks my world and my phone....
there's some kind of magic when you revert from CM to stock... you know... all working as they should, you have the assurance that your phone won't give up on you. The thing is though after a few minutes on stock and having tried CM you miss lots of things which I can't be bothered to mention now.
So CM for me!
yea...once i use cm and tried back to stock ( based rom) it feels rather odd ...and limited =(
I have no idea which rom is the best? All three have the same bugs. Only video recording and wifi tethering not working.

CM9 is great for performance. AOKP is similar to CM9 but with more themes and ability to personalize the looks. MIUI is themed a lot but i don;t know much about its performance. Choose the one which you like
MIUI Roms are based on CM cores so they're both pretty comparable. I do prefer MIUI for the themes though, easiest way to be able to quickly customize. Honestly, try them all.

For my phone, the performance of MIUI is much better, but of course it depends on which phone you have, so you should ask at the section of your phone.

It is not true, that MIUI roms are based on CM cores. It used to be true in the roms with Android 2.*. But with MIUI v4 they have developed their own framework.
But as they didn't develop it for every phone, on some phones MIUI v4 ports with a CM base exist.
I find CM9 fastest and smoothest on my Sensation, but this will vary from device to device
Try them all and see which you like the most.

Hi,
I'm gathering info for testing a MIUI Rom, as far as I've read, the 'available' ones are:
- MIUI V4 for X10
- M&M V7.1 @ 2.3.30 -
- Oodie's @ 2.1.20
- Another MM TEAM @ 2.3.0
- Cobrato's @ 2.3.2
- MIUI HD2
- CosmicUI v0.6.01.125 @ 2.4.20
In your opinion, which ones are the best considering a stable, smooth, complete Rom?
Thanks

Tried almost all of the ones you listed and found Oodies and CosmicUI very nice and good enough for daily use.
Currently trying MIUI V4 which is fast (newest build) and is almost perfect to my oppinion.
And it is the only one which is on android 4.0.4 i believe.

True, having it on 2G is good enough for some email checking and what not besides allmost everywhere you have wifi these days.
Have been trying miui v4 for a while and yes it needs a bit more work but in my opinion V2 is pretty much good enough for daily.
Only waiting for decent camera at the moment before going back to it again.

I'm currently on CosmicUI, which I believe is the fastest.
I tried almost all of them I'l highlight the most impacting:
MIUI V4 for X10 was such a bad experience with laggyness :S
M&M was good until development stopped.
Oodie was amlost perfect, update after update it was really good... However development stopped and the last release of Prime was really buggy and slow . Also It is now vastly unupdated 2.1.20 !!!
Cobrato's seemd the salvation after Oodie. Stable, no great features, but stable. And fast. It was good...
While still on Cobrato's, I decided to give CosmicUI a try......
This has been my daily since then.... It has the last MIUI GB release, great stability, few bugs (Mostly MIUI bugs) an AWESOME performance and some really useful 730MB on data.
I like very much CosmicUI, however development has stopped I think I'm going to try a just CM7 rom, to see if performance increases.
Also there some MIUI bugs that are present in all these roms like:
Delayed message recieve. (Sometimes)
H/W
Brightness before screen turning off
etc etc..
yup i also tested mms and cosmicui, and unfortunately i have to say that they dont reach most of the other rons i tried (only look was better)....
Fact is that there are no light or gaming miuis, at least not for x10...
and noonebis willing to develop it further, and most developers seem to be only interested in ics, no time for miui....
Greets
Ps: there is also a stock based miui, called something like: taste of miui on stock gingerbread....
did anyonevtest this one (doesnt sound good to me, a taste^^)

Well, I used to have it, but I didn't like the fact that it still was at 6.1.A.1.58 while the latest version was .2.45 at the time.
Otherwise, it was pretty good with awesome theme support, way more eye-candy than stock and battery friendly. In other ways, better than stock at everything rly.
Not to mention it's the only choice we have for those of us who dont want to unlock their bootloaders. It's also stock based which means, everything that runs on stock, runs on MIUI.

i agree with u on this. its been 6 months since i bought XS the only custom rom i tried was MIUI and got back to stock in less an hour. Sony's UI is the only thing stopping me from flashing any other rom.
MIUI is a mem hog and it's based on single country's custom build .58 firmware :/

Another MIUI user over here!
Simply the best ROM available for Locked BL.
Maybe a bit more heavy on memory, but also much more Graphical and the user options are so much more that you forget about it.
I don't have any problems with performance/memory. And, when think could be related, simply went to Task Manager and clear all apps.
Every week updating new version, without any problems.
i'm using miui too.
perf: u can use init.d tweak to get better performance
theme: use xperia theme! heck, u can even use xperia launcher and still got the miui icons u've set
mem: see perf . it's a little bit takes more memory (diifer with every kernel too, xsx v6 seem takes less memory, but i use adv stock v14 anyway), but i havent experienced performance dropped.
fw: ok, it's based on 1.58. but anyone know what real difference between 2.45, 2.50 and 1.58? and if u have unlocked bootloader, u can flash kernel that based on fw 2.45 or 2.50
and you'll get the attractive themes (icons, status bars, drop down notification, lockscreen, etc), the free desktop theme is kinda cool too and get weekly OTA update (official miui)
