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*
UN-FREAKING BELIEVABLY AWESOME

Hey galaxy s2 community! Just a quick question for you guys and gals. I'm ready to flash a ROM on my phone and I think I've narrowed it down to ether aokp or shostock2. I'd like to stick to ics now that the i777 has official ics (more stable and better features) so I think I may wait like a month. I'm looking for something fast (I like showing off my quadrant scores to my HTC fan boy friends) and stable, a good battery life would be great=). Can you help me choose between aokp and shostock2? And don't turn this into a war guys=) we all know they're both amazing ROMs, I just want to know which has better battery life and stability, speed is a nice bonus=) thanks!
I come from a captivate with darkyrom if that tells anyone what kind of ROM I like=)

+1 this is a vs thread which is no bueno.
We cant choose for u. Just flash them both and see what u like. Each rom suits each persons needs differently.

In! (Again)
(⊙＿⊙)
You could dual boot them using the siyah kernel. If you choose to do that download the version WITH mic swap, and try them both without flashing back and forth.
try both and see which works best for you.
As noted... no ROM fits everyone.. try a few, and see which works best for YOU.
Well I am a bit confused on which Rom to install as there are a few that look great. I want to see what people have to say on the following roms like a poll:
cm9 nightly Rom
Team Sonic's FreeGS3 Rom
Blazer Rom
Diet ICS
which are you running ? what features you like about these roms? what issues you have with these roms?
thanks

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say you have a Sprint Galaxy S3, seeing how all those roms are for Srpint. Anyways, I run Blazer Rom and love it. I have no issues with anything and I get great battery life, while it's still smooth and fast.

If you don't like TW definitely AOKP. Last nights update is supper smooth. Don't think I will run anything but AOKP on this phone
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I've been running Diet ICS, which also has great battery life. I haven't had any issues with the ROM, and they seem to be very responsive to what the community would like to see in the ROM itself.
ROM is always going to be user-preference... I go back and forth from CM10 with inverted apps, and AOKP with inverted apps....
I have been running cm9 since the first nightly. Awesome builds but this king Lang I am trying now is efin sweet especially with the over locking kernal. Just wondering what everyone else thinks. Oh and bye ng able to change your dpi is a plus also. Thank you dagr8 you are the man.

Will try. Gonna run this for awhile. Used this in previous builds but the updated version is nice.

It's a matter of personal opinion. Whichever works best for you is the best ROM, not what anybody else tells you.

Are the GPS ISSUES with stock ICS, not present with the roms mentioned above.

There is no ROM best for a individuals needs. I suggest you take the time to read the ROM threads and make your own decision. These sort of threads always get out of hand as people feel strongly about there "favourite"
NOTE!!!! : this is not a "whats the best rom thread?" :NOTE!!!!!
Hey guys with the new 4.2.2 update, roms have been coming out pretty fast over the past few weeks and i haven't had time to try them all.
1. Flapps builds
2. CM nightlys
3. Jamies U-CM
4. JellyBeer
5. AVATAR rom
6. The Collective
7. Sons of Android (Ptmr3)
Kernels: Flappjaxx 3.1.x, and ACES B3x.
As you can see, a hella of amount of roms and i cant test them all :? So im asking for some overall feedback on these roms. Any info on any of these roms will do just fine. I also appreciate any comments/replies. Maybe comment on the stability or overall theming of the rom
thanks- OPGT
Just try them. Do you really care what I think? I like green but my wife likes blue. So just try them.
I probably should have just let this go but damn. Should I try on your shoes too and tell you how they feel?

While you have best intentions at heart I see this turning into a troll fest.
As for my feedback I had flashed everyone of flapps kangs since he started putting them out. I was enjoying them but at the same time little bugs with 4.2 made me decide to flash back to his uclf6 b12 which is an amazingly stable and solid TW ICS rom.

Hello. This is not a pair of shoes.. It's a piece of hardware and silly roms. I, as many other users do not have time to test Every rom. Last time I checked each rom must receive full wipe and that takes a great amount of time and effort to do. And if you read the OP, it clearly states I DO want you opinion or what you think.. I wouldn't have made the thread if I didn't care what you thought. It also notes at very top that it's not a what's the best rom thread. So please read carefully next time. I don't like arguing over something silly. Thanks.

I am running the CM10.1 Nightlys, and they are great. They are plagued with an audio bug at the moment, so you have to use a custom kernel in place of the CM stock one. Only downside to that is battery life is bad with the custom kernel I am using, but stock CM kernel gave me great battery life, patiently waiting it out. JellyBeer was the first ROM I tried on the note and it was great as well. But I always go back to straight CM with every phone I have always used. I like watching the change log and getting the new features first. Hope this helped.

I will second jellybam...I am running version 6.6 with aces31 kernel...I have been dieing to try ptmr3's latest or even the newer version of jellybam but I generally have an "if it ain't broke don't fix it" kinda disposition..
I really wish there was a jellybam thread over here as I would love to read other's experience with the latest version. That's generally how I make my decisions on whether it not an upgrade is worth it...
Anyhow, my current setup has great features, is very stable (no reboots 3 days in), and has pretty decent battery life..

JellyBam 6.7 is most stable release so far i just dirty flashed it and no flickering or crashes. As for a jellybam thread, we wont be seeing one soon or at all in that matter... as XDA is convinced the rom is not his.
No flickers no reboots nothing after a month on jellybeer

Thanks, downloading 6.7 now..I noticed that aces has a ver32 kernel up. Normally, I would give the stock kernel a try but the aces kernels have been really stable for me...and fast charge is a useful feature...

Told you. Really bad ass rom the orange wasn't my thing I just had to reflash to flappjaxxxs ics rom most stable rom ever

My fav is Flapps 4.2.2. I've been on it for about a week or two and it is awesome. Most stable of all the 4.2.2 ROMs I've tried. You don't see much about it because FJ isn't posting on XDA. He is just sharing his work, but it's great stuff.
I tried a few others but just wasn't as satisfied. Jellybam is a good one but there were other issues that keep from dealing with those characters. CM is also good, of course. I encourage you to include Flapps in your final 2 or 3 trial run ROMs. You won't be disappointed.
