There is a few things you can do:
1.Overclock kernel
2.remove all bloatware and add some build props to tweak out your current rom to make it a little faster.,
3...instead of using that rom..maybe you could upgrade to the same dev..but his other ics rom..which is to be said is very fast and stable..which will be extremly faster then what your on....

Yes ....
Trade the stock rom for a bebloated and optimized rom ....g

i currently have rr 2.2 rom but appart from the looks and animations etc.. is there a difference in performance/ battery compared to stock?
its been a while sinse i have been on stock so i cant remember what it was like and i just wanted to know are custom roms more better in terms or speed/battery/power etc..

custom rom do come with there own pro's and con's u have to check the changelog of that rom to see whats different in it also some apps which do require root previlage wrks fine with custom roms rather than stock one's
stock roms do have better batt life compared 2 custom ones at the cost of customization with there dull and boring looks
thanks for your reply i guess its just finding the correct balance between customization and battery life then. cheers
go with custom
I had the exact same thoughts when i first decided to flash a custom rom.
Personally i would now flash a custom rom at the drop of a hat, however as the previous comment said there are pros and cons.
do some research on roms with functionality that you require and you'll find one you want to flash no doubt.
hope i helped
i am now running CM9 and its so smooth and looks amazing, a millions times better than stock in almost every way!
Check out the ROM and the comments which people have wrote. Some of them may be good and others may be bad.. you'll be able to work out the missing features of the custom rom bother you or not ^__^ That's how I work out whether to install the ROM XD Most ICS ROM's have their benefits and cons, Gingerbread would be considered the most stable Hope this helps you

Highly customizable. You can overclock, undervolt, theme, use different launchers. To me they're faster too.

cheers guys i guess custom seems the way forward, just need to research the changelog of each rom that takes my fancy
thanks again guys !!
What about if I install a custom kernel, but keep my stock rom? Is there any benefit at all?
To clarify: I'm on i19100 4.0.3 which I've recently rooted. Thinking of installing Siyah 3.5.2 but for now I want to keep my stock (Bell) ROM. What do I stand to gain when I get the Siyah kernel, if anything? Or is the kernel really *only* just a prerequisite to get a custom ROM?
Thanks!

But there's already no brick bug on 4.0.3 right? So... what exactly would I gain with the Siyah kernel?
The only thing I can think of is CPU/kernel modding

One BIG reason I'm on stock ROM and KERNEL is that currently no custom Kernel supports MHL (please correct me if I'm wrong)
For me this is a big problem as I'm always watching movies and playing games on my TV with my phone

It's the ROM, not the kernel, that determines if MHL fully works.
Apparently video works with AOSP, but not full mirror of the display.
However, if you want full mirroring, you'll need to be on a stock Samsung based ROM.
That said, you can still run a custom kernel, such as Siyah or SpeedMod, and MHL will still work as long as you remain on the Samsung based ROM.
I'm currently running stock XWLPX with Siyah 4.1.4, and MHL works fully for me.
Hi, with the coming of the official released of the ics for evo3d... Would it be better to unroot and have the official on your phone or stay rooted and wait for the tweaks and turns by custom rom devs.....??? Which is more recommendable??

depends on what you need
if you want good battery life and just a properly functioning phone you should go stock
if you want weekly updates, cutting edge technology like sense 4 and ponury, and experimental features like OC and other mods which could cause reboots and gps/wifi/signal drops, you should go with custom
I'm using Virus' infected rom pkmn rom which has sense 4, working 2d cameras, and pkmn tweaks, and that's all I need for now
I would say stay with being rooted since most phone have security issues with rerooting after they try the official update then they regret that decision. Plus you can have a rooted stock ROM once a developer has tweaked the OTA. That's my 2 cents.
If you run a custom Rom that is a tweaked version of the stock Rom, you get the stability and battery life of the stock Rom with the speed and features of a custom. Plus, fixed come out substantially faster with the custom Roms (ex: Carrier IQ). See the two Roms I use for good examples of custom Roms. Stay rooted my friend

What are the best things to do after stock 4.0.4 root, besides cwm, custom rom, kernel etc.
I mean tweaks, apps for better performance and all this stuff!
Thanks, and remember, only for stock rom and kernel, locked bootloader!

ATT Note I was running custom Roms before but kept having problems so I Decided to go back to stock using this Guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634087
got my Flash counter at 0 everything is back to stock and all back normal
now is there a root method that i can root my phone without tripping the flash counter? for the stock ICS 4.0.4 From Kies
I would prefer stock Kernel if that possible all i want root for is to remove some bloatware I dont care about anything else just wanna get rid of these stupid ATT crap

Is there a partiular reason you want to keep it bare bones stock? Or do you just not want custom rom/kernel? ::Edit:: found a much better place here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740367 that has everything you need!
ya i dont want a custom Rom cause i had so many problems and i just said **** it im going back to stock and all i want is root

I don't own a ROM, the my dd is bigfau ROM, BLACK STAR.
Guys I'm fairly new to all the flashing and stuff but have come a long way with my several xperiments :victory:. I've a Xperia Neo L and with the stock ROM (locked BL) I had made a Nandroid backup. Today I unlocked my Bootloader and installed MIUI 2.11.30 from MIUI Australia.
1) I'm just curious will my previous backup can be used to restore my old stock ROM considering the BL status is changed now?
2) Stock ROM is backed up with CWM Recovery ver 5.5 and I'm currently running CWM Recovery ver 6.0.1.2. Will this have any impact?
Please forgive me for the noobish questions...
BL unlock status shouldn't make a difference. Different CWM version can give problems afaik, but chances are it works fine because of backward compatibility in restoring.

Thanx mate! Will try restoring.
more important part is to use ICS kernel with ICS ROM, and GB kernel with GB ROM, same goes for backup's.

Hmmm Now I'm running a MIUI ROM based on 4.04 and I'm curious to try Turbo UI r4 based on JB 4.1. For that i need to first flash a JB kernel. Will my nandroid backups still be working as I'm changing kernels?
One more time..
GB kernel GB ROM
ICS kernel ICS ROM
JB kernel JB ROM
Any other combination MAY work, but they are looking for trouble.
Right Thankyou!
