I was reading the xylon thread and saw a couple of people saying they were having issues with the build, have you got problems with it?
Im running the RemICS JB 4.2.1 and it's good but im open to try another rom. So what can you tell me about Xylon?

Well so far I've got really good battery life but USB internal to computer causes softboot. Rebooting causes phone to return to original launcher. Nothing major but can be annoying at times

If you really want a stable and fast Rom then stick with one of fishman or mopedryders 2.2 roms. Your phone may handle ice cream and jb roms fine but my phone didn't like them at all and there is usually something that doesn't work on jb, gps , reboot issues etc.

[ROM 2.2.1] Bi-Winning Redux v1 - A Moped_Ryder FishmanMod (07-12-12) Is this the one your talking about??? im downloading it now, ive tested a couple of jb roms and they work ok since i havent found any major flaw on them just little things. But im going to try the Bi-Winning Redux build to see how it works, I also have the Bionix 1.3.1 v4 and use it for a day and it was ok.

Any rom by fishman or mopedryder, bi winning redux is one deployed by both those guys but my favorite is fishmans axura resurrected rom. Just make sure you go back to stock before flashing if you are on jb.

Really that's weird, I'm on fishmans deranged 9 rom right now and instagram works fine. It should work fine with axura since these roms are pretty much identical except for the theme. Does instagram install and not open or are you not able to download it from the play store?

Froyo with Flash??

Hello XDA im a eris-aholic and im looking for a froyo rom with flash. So far ive only found 2. 1 roms that have flash but no 2.2's or am i missing something? Pls help!!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
The only one that I know of is the KaosLegendary v.19 ROM. It's a Wildfire Port, but is very visual rough and still in the alpha phase but flash does really work (probably thing that works really well as of right now). Hope this helps :3
Edit:
The reason for this is that to have Flash 10.1 of the Eris you either need to port it on the back of another 2.2 sense ROM or build it on top of out default 2.1 sense ROM with flash lite. Most (maybe all) other 2.2 ROMs for Dorid Eris are ASOP (cyanogen) which doesn't work well when mixed with the Eris and Flash.

Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
Ok so I'm. Going to assume that install through pc to kaos 37 also wouldn't work well then. Is like to have the best of both worlds but legendary is still alpha and kinda funky atm IMHO. any other input would be great
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
I've had flash running on every 2. 1 sense Rom that I've flashed, but so far no luck with the 2.2 because they are all cyanogen. As of last night or the night before, the htc gratia was ported to the Eris. It's the first "working" 2.2 SENSE Rom for us. Only problem is that its still very very rough.. setup is in Chinese, no WiFi, camera issues, and to turn it off you have to do a battery pull. So, maybe in a few weeks some of our great devs will have that Rom running smoother and reliably, and maybe then, flash will work on it. Even then, there may still be issues =/ we'll see tho! Hope this helps!

Or a couple of days lol. There's a few versions out now like tenzos and tazz's. Both are already looking very good.
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
IMO Tenzo is on the forefront of making a useable functional 2.2 Sense ROM for our Erii.
+1 for Tenzos 2.2 Sense rom.
So far I've demo'd them both and tenzo is definitely closer to completion even though it still has bugs.... ill probably go with tenzo unless kaos pulls this through quick
And clean

Favorite ROM and why?

As the title says, what's your favorite ROM and why? Why didn't you stay on that rom and go to the one your on? Or you can explain a short review/experience with them.

Hmm, I've always flashed roms by Team Whiskey.
I think out of all of them, Nero v5 and Bionix-V 1.2 would tie as my favorites as of now.
Both are extremely snappy and smooth. The battery life is incredible. As of now, I'm currently running Bionix-V 1.2 and as of this last charge, my phone has been off the charger for 51 hrs (17% left) with light/moderate usage.
TBH, I could've stayed on Nero v5, but I just moved on because I wanted to experience the new hotness from TW.
(Actually, that's a pro and a con when it comes to TW: everytime you flash one of their roms, it takes only 4-5 days before a new one comes out and then you've got to debate whether or not to flash the new one, lol.)
my Rom of choice : Di11igaf
Smooth, fast, and good looking.. oh wait.. sorry guys i was looking in the mirrror..

As expected, anything by Einherjar Dev Team will be my choice.
That said, this is going to be different for everyone. It depends what you want in a Rom.
Masters roms are always very visually appealing.
TW is who I studied. They make a solid rom, everytime. They also have access to every kerneler there is, except for freelance supercurio.
EDT is very young but growing fast. These roms are set out to be created as something that does yet exist.
Eugene is the hero of anyone who has ever had to recover from a soft brick. Solid roms.
The lone rom-ers are starting to bring out some very solid products.
Lol, I guess thats all I have to say right now.

I'm a big fan of the team einherjar Roms. they seem to be the most stable to me and have the least amount of issues. i recently flashed bionix V 1.2.1 but i has issues trying to download apps from the market even after reflashing like three times. needless to say i flashed back to trigger 2.0. thats just my 2 cents.
Nero v3 because it had the best battery life. But i dont want to revert back because bionix has some things that nero did not and i will take them over the battery. But yea i love battery and have heard that axura has excellent battery life.
Cyanogen mod 7
Pretty stable, fast and statusbar widgets.

i think this is made for gb roms like trigger Redux 16 which is what im on
Sensation is a ROM based on 2.3.4 JVQ gingerbread. It's currently in beta stage with a few bugs. And very beautiful theming.
I assume the actual theme itself will also be ported for other JVQ ROMs.
What on earth is KG3.
Our current roms are based of JVQ,JVP GT-I9000
Will it even work??
It's been ported for our vibrant. There are a few bugs, but it's VERY beautiful and pretty dang quick.
i9100 is SGS II and KG3 is GB leak for it

That's all gonna depend on what you want. Do you want GB or ICS leak. If ya wanna stick with GB. Then saurom is the way to go. I ran it since it came out with great results.

Go for it.. You wont regret
there are to many now to say.
only1 is super smooth, the collective roms are ALL stable as ****, aokp and cm9 are pretty good for what they are. cm9 was a little more stable than aokp when i was using it.
i dont even think about GB anymore...so i could not give you my OP on those as this moment.
I've been running ICS leak ROMs since they first surfaced around early April. I honestly must say that the Unofficial CM9 build is perhaps the best ROM I have used. It's pretty fast, and other than a few annoying bugs (none of which are show stopping), It's pretty awesome. That would be my rekommendation.
