Odp: [Q] Which Rom to choose
I am not to lazy to try out roms. But i haven't find any cm10/aosp based rom with these features.
It isn't "which rom is best" question.
I think more people would be interested in rom i described.

:silly:
If you have tried all the roms and they don't have these features then the solution is blatantly obvious and that is to install the apps yourself. There are plenty of camera, gallery and SMS apps on Play Store.

Well if you want opinions.
ive tried a couple of ROMS here for S2.
Im running 4.2.1 though
Im Using Jelly BAM 5.2.0 with Dorimanx 7.45 Kernel

Best ROM threads normally just cause issues as everyone has one they like more than the other! I recommend you just try out a couple and see what you like best.
Thanks for your understanding.

Sir, you can change wallpaper by long tapping on home sceen, a menu will pop up , select wallpapers or gallery based on where your desired wallpaper is. I didn't get the colour stuff? If you mean that you want to change the ROM's colour then you cannot do that through a wallpaer, you need to download a theme which has the desired colors and apply the theme via Theme Manager
And yes, you can also change the wallpaper via settings menu

Sir, please cool down, it's ok. We need to give time to new people/members to adapt to XDA. I am not going against you sir, you are elder to me so whatever you say is right. But, XDA is all about helping each other, if someone is in trouble and doesnt know how to go about, then we shouldnt mind
in my opinion. now is the best and setabil is "TheMyth ICS - Lite"
this one is great CRe.ActiveX RC1 Barebones Based on CM7.1 Grif_07 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414779
Hi,
I tried almost all ROMs in the development pages but I like the best ICS final with SlainModFast v2.5 with the new kernel(blackhawk - ketut). I had no reboots, no freezes no problems. I also run the JuiceDefender on balanced and improves the battery life. And I like the ADW launcher that is included in the ROM.(tried GO, Launcher Pro and some others).
I am a big fan of Grif's CM7 and Ketut's oc kernel... those guys deserves monies!
need kernel with vpn support Android 2.3.5
Hey guys,
flashed today the ace to the Android 2.3.5 via odin.
have now these figures:
Android 2.3.5
Basisband S5830xwks2
Kernel [email protected]#1
gingerbread.xwks2
have read in this forum that per default in samsung's kernel there is no vpn support compiled in so that that i am not able to use vpnc to connect to company's vpn (cisco based).
maybe an option is to update to Android 2.3.6 stock rom, but i think same sh** no vpn support compiled in...
Need a 2.6.35.7 Kernel with additional vpn support nothing more like overclocking etc. Which kernel are you recommended and how do i update only the kernel via odin, too???
many thanks for your replies.

Yeah, unfortunately there are few Aosp Roms for our phone.
you have to live with it till new developers get interest in building more Aosp Roms
Swyped from my Galaxy SII
Sorry,i forget this section is shared with l9100G model btw i have GT-l9100 (non-G)
Reason i am asking for AOSP Is its smooothness and non-jackiness touch reponse unlike cm-9-10 or AOKP.
I just love AOSP builds cause they perform better overall whereas in other you will get loads of feature like Rom control etc
AOKP / CM10 / MIUI builds get very low score in benchmark tests ( i am not a benchmark freak but still i want my phone to perform better not worse )

Benchmarks are plain rubbish. For example, if you apply some CFS tweaks, UI responsiveness will be greatly improved at the expense of benchmark score.
Try Aosp builds

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.

Sure? Because I Think what android eclair,froyo,ics,ebean all of them are ROMS And things such cyanogen, criskelo ,darkys etc are MODS for the android ROMS!... and im NOT asking for the BEST "rom".. simply i am asking for suggestions .. i readed so much stu**d questions here and i think mine is not so bad... thanks for read anyway

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.

There is no best rom.
There are only roms that you think is better than the others.
Read comments and reviews for each rom and decide by yourself.

I'm not looking for an ultimate ROM I'm looking for something that answers my requirments: Fast & stable,JB 4.1.2 with no FC,
not something too complicated.
Can you recommend on something?
read the rules before posting. asking for a best ROM is against them

[Q] Stock rom with speed of CM10.1?

Hi,
I'm amazed with CM10.1 speed, responsiveness and others, but I hate many things in it. I hate the camera app, widgets bar and that everything is black/blue. Is there any stock rom that could compete with CM10.1?

Its like comparing chips and a mouse. AOKP/AOKP will defaultly be faster because there is less in the actual ROM and default Stock OS has everything the software/phone manufacturer could cram into it eg: Samsung
Your best bet is to go with a stock ROM that is either stripped or one that you can choose the applications you want with it eg: Sotmax... or maybe even a hybrid ROM...
Hope this helps, and please correct me if i have said something wrongly anywhere:good::fingers-crossed::good::laugh:
