ok this might be a stupid question but i can't decide which rom to choose. i need a rom that is fast and smooth also fun to use. can anyone suggest the best rom. I can't use miui nb 1.12.2 because its giving problems and 1.11.18 is kinda slow.
ICS - Awesome, it gives your phone a new feel, a new look. It's different from older things. (Gingerbread, Froyo, etc.) But, it's not the fastest, it is fast, but not the fastest.
ICS is definitely fun to use.
MIUI - I don't know.. I like it, but it looks too.. professional? In a way? Like.. I feel you can customize it less. I like the features, but I dun know, reminds me of when I had my 3GS, ahah. It's fast, not as fast as CM7 or a Bionix 2.2 ROM, but it's pretty fast.
I think ICS is a little slower than MIUI, but that little bit of lag is worth all the cool little features ICS has.
Edit; But if you do want to stay on MIUI, I suggest this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364390
It was running great when I was using it.
ICS = no gps
That is the killer for me. After the "Hardware fix" my gps usually locks within 15-20sec. I use it every day. Another reason I stay clear of GB ROMS (non CM7/Miui) is because you need a very old kernel to use gps.
Thanks friends. im going to try ics and see how it works. but wich ics rom do you recommend?

I am running this one on my Vibrant. It is smooth and fast. Very crisp, and not many problems for a Beta version.
Hey. I have question. What rom of ICS is the fastest and stable for our heros? What works, what not working? Please help me. I'm stuck on Miui. It's laggy and not stable.
All ICS ROMs are still in heavy development imho, and aren't meant for every day use. You're better off sticking to SHPONGLE v3.5 or something else.
Hi all,
I keep reading but I don't seem to find a definite answer for this question. I read somewhere that because of i9300 processor (samsung didn't reveal the codes or sth) the performance and battery life on Custom ROM based on AOSP and CM is not as satisfactory as Stock or Touch-wiz based roms.
Is this true? I love to use CM but the battery indeed seems to drain faster. Any idea of when i9300 users might get to use solid AOSP or CM based ROMs?
Thanks mates!
I am curious about this too. It seems that AOSP ROMS will always be imperfect as long as the Exynos codes arent released.

I have messed around with a few ROMS (mainly sammy based one's) and using a SAMMY ROM with a new launcher is a strong base.
Why not start by finding a good sammy based ROM (i'm using Viking ROM although may switch to HyperLight) get a nice setup, then you can simply backup and mess with ASOP & CM yourself knowing you have a rock solid alternative to fall back on.
You can make up your own mind then ^^

Cm10 is rock stable and has better battery life than sammy. (For me) but camera has some problems. Just try it. You can always revert it to sammy

CM10 is still nightly build right? I tried some ROMs like slimbean and liquid smooth but the battery performance is significantly not as good as stock. Am i right?
Yes right...
The stock ROM gives awesome battery life...
I tried CM10 but it seems to drain battery faster...i mean not that faster...
On my galaxy sl i9003 you cant even imagine what actually battery drain is....
Life 7hrs and gone but on my S3 the battery is OK about a day or day and a half and still 34% left !!

Wah. A day and a half??? I can't even achieve it with stock rom. What kind of tweaks do you use?
I just rooted a while ago and have just been flashing ROM this and that. Have never tried custom kernels or mods.
Would love to hear some tweaks that will last me 1.5 days with CM10. haha. Share with me bro.
If you can tolerate the few minor issues/glitches here and there, nothing beats CM10.

okay. So i do not need any kernel and tweaks for excellent battery life is it?
tried so often cm9&cm10, lately slimbean.
was AOSP fan on my desire, but not on the s3 (yet)
none of them made me stick to AOSP for more than 1week...
too many "bugs" - minor things who annoyed me like: **** camera&video (unstable), battery life, calling bugs (low voice volume) etc
ive to admit that slimbean + siyah kernel beats everything, the battery life is rly nice (nearly liek sammy roms). siyah kernel helps alot concerning the battery life on AOSP!
still ive to use a sammy rom cuz of stability and reliability.
id look forward to a fully working AOSP rom, hopefully soon.

What good is a ROM that is stable (as in doesn't crash) but ISN'T fully functional (as in has issues w/ hardware) ?
I want a ROM that is both stable and fully functional, even if it isn't the benchmark champion.
For me, the stock ROMs offer the best of the 2 worlds: they are stable and functional.
Yeah, let the flame start, but I am yet to see an AOKP/AOSP/CM ROM that doesn't have a single issue with hardware.
So, stock ROMs for me are the winner.
I use NOVA Launcher Prime, BTW, but the TouchWiz that came with today's stock JB (France, XEF) is extremely fast and as customizable as Nova Launcher.

There is miui rom that offers sammy+miui experience. I think it's called rayglobe, but it's based on 4.0.4 so it is never as smooth as jb
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I'm currently running a CM10.1-build of some sort, and I have to say, it's not the most lag-free, battery-friendly ROM I've ran.
Long story short: what's the most stable ROM out there for this device?
Thanks!
CM10. Android 4.1.2
+1. The CM10 for this tablet is very nice. Clock up the CPU and you're golden.
There are good solid options all over the Dev forums for both JB and ICS. Take your pick and find what fits you best!

Hi All

Thanks

Difficult question. But the answer lies in your own hands. You need to try them to find out which one suites you best.
IMHO, all JB ROMs answer to your needs: Vasishta, DIXperia, Fera, etc.
If you'll try DIXPeria you'll find that it has good performance and is good for daily use
If you try SlimBean you will have even a better performance, but you'll miss Sony look&Feel.
Etc.
It's up to you to decide which ROM is best for you.
All JB ROM are good for daily use, unless if the dev has stated otherwise (like MIUI at this mooment).
Good luck!
