If you are bored with the original ROM.
It took me 10 days to get bored with the original ROM
OK... ok... but... I mean somtehing like: best performance, optimization in battery drain, cool themes,...
Dont ask for best roms etc.If you like stock then stick with it.

1. best performance is subjective but many people have had better luck with custom ROMs because they contain much less bloatwares compared to the stock firmware.
2. You only need to flash a custom kernel to optimize battery drain. You don't need to flash a custom ROM for that.
Although, you have to note that, all custom ROMs are bundled with custom kernels.
3. When it comes to enjoying cool themes, then custom ROM is the way.
You will even enjoy much better and probably endless theme options on AOSP ROMs.

1. because I can, so why not just try another thing
2. that's the main benefit of android aside from other things, there are custom stuffs for almost anything
3. because i cook custom roms too for my local friends since symbian days and now Android, so there is no way i can just stick with the stock firmware.
4. I get bored easily.

Tell you what...... go visit a psychiatrist and ask him.
Should you change from stock to custom well that is totally down to personal choice, and how about you try it and if you don't like it then change back. Thread Closed

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.

If you want to stay on stock ROM, then have a look at my kernel/stock ROM test results => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26775950
About custom ROMs, you have to read a lot and test it yourself ... there are many with many differences.
Good luck !

From experience you actually get the best battery life from the stock kernels. The manufacturers take the battery life very seriously since its compared to others when the device is released, so they surely test it rigorously to get the best results.
If you are curious, I recommend SiyahKernel, it seems to be about the same as the stock kernels in terms of battery life, and you get all the capabilities of a custom kernel. It also supports dual booting, so you can try other ROMs and decide what you like before messing up your system. We can't decide for you what ROM you like
If I may suggest: I am a heavy user and my solution was to buy a Momax extra battery and external battery charger from them too (the generic ones on ebay suck), that way I don't care how much battery my phone takes, since I always have a full one to pop in. That way you can flash any kernel you like.

I somewhat agree with the above two posters with staying with the stock ROM however if you were in the same position as I and didn't like the stock ROM ICS upgrade at all then I'd try Cyanogenmod 9. It's stable and I've actually noticed I get better battery life out of it than I did the stock ROM.
Just make sure you get the exact ROM version for your phone model as you could do some damage if you choose the incorrect one.

Omega 100% stable and the developer indie doesn't stop. Always updated to the latest firmware. Also a lot of theme support on the thread. Check out motomoto theme its a beauty.

eclair, froyo, ics, etc are versions.
cm, darky, criskelo, omega are all roms that are modded. mods on the other hand are specific changes that do not include the whole rom with it. it depends on having a rom as a base to install onto.
stuff like removing charging notifications or add camera functionality are mods. the ability to add any app to multi Window is a mod, but cm, darky, omega etc are ROMs. they're completely independant and does not require a flashing of another rom as a base.
and yes, you are asking for what the best rom is. the fact is, you'll have to just try different roms and see which one suites your need. check the all in one sticky thread for a link to another thread that categorizes roms based on what concept of android they're going for (stock, aosp, aokp, sense, etc etc).
all of these roms are very well documented and they explain what their rom was built for.

Try some out and see which one works best for you.
Hi. I'm a bit new to this, and was wondering if a way to improve my ace performance, would a custom stock android based ROM improve the phone? As at the moment it is laggy and has loads of bloatware taking up the internal memory.
So will doing this make the phone less laggy and improve performance?
Cheers!
Yes it will increase the performance but depends on the ROM you're using.
After flashing a custom rom, you can apply additional tweaks to it. Which hence increase performance, smoothness, network speed etc ; depending on the tweaks.
Also with more performance, there is a price to pay! You will be facing alot of battery drianage. But that depends again on the tweaks you applied.
Most Custom Rom have inbuilt tweaks with them. That makes them special and are good.
To be honest, i think stock rom is the best except for the look though.
