So i want to know your opinion between these ICS Roms:
1. Cyanogen Mod 9.
2. FOXHOUND 0.2 Cyano+Aokp
3. Slim ICS
I can't decide between these 3 Custom Roms, what is the fastest, what's the "cleaniest" and if they support Siyah Kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612881

This is a Poll, and i didn't say what is the best Rom from here without knowing any names, just wanted a comparation between these 3.
I think that this belongs to Q&A section, but I'll answer I think that you should try CM9 first.. It's really clean and fast! Then you could give a chance to the others: had a shot to both roms and they are really good but MAYBE not as clean as CM9.. I say MAYBE because I'm not so expert As an alternative to CM9 I suggest ParanoidAndroid, that is based on CM9 and comes with Siyah.. This great rom is wisely supported and adds some more features to stock CM9(such as the tablet mode fully working and other fantastic features that provide you the best android experience!)
Hope it helped

Pretty simple to read 3 threads and see what the difference is and by the time enough people voted and gave their opinion for your poll to be significant, you could nandroid and try all the ROMs yourself.

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.
Hello peeps,
Virgin flasher here and need some help or opinions.
I know I should probably just flash the roms and try them out myself but want to get an overall consensus on what you guys think
before I try them out myself.:laugh:
Out of the following 3 roms, which do you prefer and why?
Omega
Rgui
Checkrom

Yes. Omega is nice. I have tried CheckRom, CM9, AOKP. If you like pure Android experience you can try either CM9 or AOKP, else you can flash Omega, it has a lot of mods from its kitchen. The only downside of Omega is the CSC is only based on Europe.
I would go for Omega, Foxhound or RGUI. RGUI`s dev gh.rohit is very commited, builds good rom`s and is very helpfull, if he can help you he will.
But it`s best to try out for yourself, everyone has his favs.
Fox Hound SUPER stable....
Im liking RGUI MiUi V2 right now though. Great Dev and Rom!!!
Closed, rom comparison or "best" rom threads are highly discouraged on XDA, as one person's favorite rom, might be another's least favorite.
Everyone has different needs, flash the roms and find out yourself.
Hi,
I have hard times to decide which ROM should I run. Both are great and amazing. So I need some help from both CM and Paranoid users.
What I look forward are: A better battery life and fast-stable operating.
Thanks in advance!
You're posting to wrong section.
But I prefer CyanogenMod

Paranoid Android has more UI choices from normal to hybrid. Really good and stable ROM. Cyanogen will are the main source. You have any problems its them that fix it not Paranoid. I'm on Cyanogen now. Was on Paranoid and enjoyed it. I'd rather stability than anything else.
Please read the rules about posting in the correct sections.

Sorry for posting in the wrong section.

Okay, thanks for the answers, I expect more reviews.

This one I did not closed because the OP is asking about a comparison between two specific roms not asking a general "which rom is best". I feel this thread is ok and tolerable. lol
only thing i dont like about cyanogen is that you cant have a brightness slider, i use paranoid but a recommendation i could make is install the latest siyah kernel then run one as a first rom and the other as second rom and give them both a try i do it for omega stock touchwiz and pa very useful :3

How do you mean by "run as first rom and the other as second"?
He means dual boot, see siyah kernel thread. But quite odd to dual boot with two non Sammy (or 2 Sammy) roms
More logical to use paranoid as it's cm based with more features.
Newb question here:
But, what's the difference between CM10 and Paranoid Android?
Since Paranoid Android is built on CM10 - wont it just have a few extra features? (Hybrid mode looks cool imo.)

Don't you think hybrid is a big difference ? Just flash and compare, no one will be able to choose for you. Ten minutes work, restore is easy with nandroid, you could even try without data wipe as it's same base. But CM10 bugs ==> Paranoid.
I look at the voting poll and it's pretty close. Right now I'm running CM10. I must to say that the battery life rocks. The only thing that I don't like that much is the Contacts feature, a lot of stuffs are missing. Ow and also I can't find Power Saving mode in Settings?

The latest Syiah Kernel allows you to dual boot your phone. So you can have two different roms installed.
I use CM10 because it has faster/more frequent updates. (Usually every night hence "nightly") (could be a good or bad thing though... I feel like I have to flash something on my phone every day. Flashing is sooo addicting lol.)
PA is based on CM10 and will have to wait for CM10 to release its update before it too updates. The PA team is also quick to update when it happens though.
But PA has added features to CM10 that some people may or may not like. Hybrid mode and enabling/disabling hard/soft keys are one of top features that comes to mind.
Dude, first of all.. you CAN'T let other people decide on what you "want"
You just have to try it for yourself..

I'm trying out right now the CM10. Very awesome! I will give a try to PA also.
Just wanted to know which was more stable ..
This is a little off the Paranoid and CM10 but what I tried was this...
Downloaded Omega v29 & Omega v2.0 and dropped into SD Card,
Formatted my Internal Memory, (like completely formatted),
Flashed Omega v29, once done, set it up, and there is S Teaks in the App Drawer, open it up and go across to Dualboot and click the ''Reboot into 2ndROM Utils''
Down the bottom there is dual-boot options, go into that, Format 2md Rom system, Wipe 2nd Rom data/cache and wipe dalvik-cache, and fix permissions, then install zip to from External SD (where you put the omega v2.0 file, and flash that. And the rest is as is comes.
It will reboot and you have a choice to click the home button to go to your 2nd rom or click anything else to go to 1st Rom.
Worth it, due to both those Omegas are different UI, I got Omega v29 for Gaming and 2.0 for sexy show off looks.
i used PA before im on CM10.1 based rom,
PA - i like the phablet mode etc but it has no statusbar transparency
CM - i love the speed, themes and the softbutton below its like a built in. battery and performance are great.
i dont know which is better since i used the same kernel with that 2 cusrom marmite kernel

Can anyone tell me some good roms based on cm9? I want to downgrade as cm10 has some bugs that annoy me, but I can't find which roms are the most popular.

If u don't mind aokp roms which are stable too Use RootBox 1.8 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696419
You'd have to do the hard hours going through the forums for the best ROM that'd suit you mate. Asking for a best rom is against the community rules. Go through Gabowinter's index for a convenient listing of all ICS roms and take your pick.
Search, read and try them out yourself.

i don't want the best rom i just want a rom that is stable and looks like nexus
cm10.1
We're not gonna serve anything to you on a silver platter. Search, download and try various roms and make your own mind up.

If you think CM's buggy and still want a Nexus-like rom, then you're sh*t out of luck, pal. All AOSP roms are like this for this phone. You have Samsung to thank for that!

Its still a best ROM type question no matter how you phrase it - basically "The most stable AOSP ROM" is the question you're asking.
