Hi, I was wondering my P500 is getting quite old now, and all this flashing of ROMs has been great but I want to come down to one final decision on the ROM I will use for the rest of my phone's future without changing. I'm looking for a ROM which is fast and snappy, has a conservative battery life, doesn't crash and keep rebooting, looks great and is ICS or JB. That's pretty much all, thank you.

Roms by neko
You can go for gingerbread roms made by neko.
Gingersnap v2.3 or GTR
both are fast and provide better battery life.
I will recommend you Gingersnap v2.3
:angel:
Press thanks if I help you:angel:
It's hard to say, and you are not allowed to ask, but I can tell you my choice:
CM 9.2.2 with my signature's settings ;D
If you don't mind having bad photos of course.
Stop asking such questions ..try your self

Maybe Oxygen GB

I'll tell you my personal choice.
ICY Snap final.. Stable and almost no bugs.. And smooth. I find myself going back to that ROM again and again after trying other ROMs.
JB 4.1.2 works great, so go get it and have fun with it.
Easily findable from Cyanogen, built 20130108 coming w arjen 2.6.35.10
Further get slim gapps version, et voilà, be happy. :thumbup:

Since Joining this community and a self admitted noob. I am in NO WAY a developer of any kind. Just someone, who because of xda learned to root and flash and enjoy the power you folks have allowed me to unleash on an otherwise introductory android phone that is the optimus T. Here is my dilema. All you Devs have created such amazing Roms, I can't make up my mind on which one to use for my everyday!! I am looking for a fast powerful Rom. I have alot of Apps (not games, more like productivity apps) can the more expierenced family members make some suggestions on what would be the best choice for my daily use Rom. Thank-you XDA!!!!

You could try miks cm7 and custumize it yourself
or you could use a theme Rom that is outstanding in the Theme section.
Hope you can find a ROM that suits you

Hmm...i can only think of CyanogenMod 7.
If you are willing to wait, the excellent Oxygen rom or Andy's Phoenix rom has some bugs but will be ironed out soon.
I am totally willing to wait. The work these guys do is such an art form dude. And just like painting a picture or jamming a song they share it with the fans. ITS GREAT. So you think I should run with the current stable version of miks cm7 for right now?

@Sorry2U Thanks for the advice.
On an unrelated note. Being 27 years of age and a child of the 80s. I am a HUGE fan of the Trannsformers. Love all the films and I thought you might appreciate the fact that I have tattoos of both autobot and decepticons on both shoulders with "good" and "evil" underneath there symbol. Its my favorite representation of the eternal battle between good and evil.
Cheers xda!

Ok brotherrs and sisters. I'm running miks cm7. What's the best way to go as far as the overclock and my govener setting? IV been going with 748/320 set at smartassV2 it seems to be serving me well, but again......in the big picture..what do I know? Anyone have any tips??
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Get yourself fserves goldenleaf kernel or francos modified kernel..its an excellent combo wit miks cm7!
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
put min freq. to 480 mhz and max to 729 mhz
don't usse any other apk to overclock use cyan default one
and if you want to use another apk than this then no frill will be great
but don't use setcpu coz it runs like service
I have the optimus t as well use miks CM7 it is the fastest and most customizable ROM out there
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App running CM7 over clocked at 806
I have used miks cm7 and I'm currently using Andy's Phoenix rom and from my experience with the two, I have to say that Andy's rom is by far a lot faster than miks cm7

I'm just waiting for new release - i need a more polished rom. Last bugfix quite disappointed me hehe.
thank you for the advice the two major choices seem to be cm7 and pheonix....it'll just have to be personal preference from then on! Thanks so much!

brothers and sisters. I'm sticking with CM7 for my every day rom. Goldenleaf kernal. 749/480 INTERactiveX. I have a great battery life, and multitasking is smooth as a jazz club in NYC. And for my hanging around the house on a weekend Rom IV gone with Void #Froyo Final. Latest Franco Kernal. Same OC as my CM7. And I opted with the Froyo Rom. Because of the terrible cell signal where I live, so Tmobiles life saving wifi calling App which doesn't work on 2.3.X Roms, is a must! thank you to ALL in this family for the suggestions thank you more to all who create these wonderful pieces of art and share them with there fans. CHEERS XDA!!!

It's a little lower than the most ROMs but it can hold 2-3 days, depends how you use it. And i can't relly tell you cuz i am using my phone A LOT (games, testing apps, wi-fi) so its always on performance 787Mhz and for me at the end of the day its like on 20-30%
best
CYANOGEN MOD 9 it actually makes my friends jealous
Perfectpeso 2.2 because its rly very fast and smoth.
LEWA, cuz I don't really care about performance. Only looks is what matters to me. I tried to go to other rom after using it but all other ROMs looks kinda not so good. Tried using cm9 but waiting for stable version. And waiting a battery fix for MIUI also.

Oxygen 2.6 and #void forever. Yes, #void it might be old, but is great.
Both ROMS are fast and almost bugfree.
Also, I like OpenOptimus, not so fast, but very stable and without bugs at all.

IMO, every rom developed here in XDA are amazing. It is for the user to decide according to his descretion what would best fit to his needs and taste.
Check development thread and try a rom you think that is right for you.
you'l get a variety of people all loving another rom like this
and ill start !
i enjoys feralabs roms i tried it with thkernel and testing doomkernel now.
if you can give more info on what you do with your phone would help in making choices.
music,games,whatnot
but the best way is just to test em tbh.
I'm on mokee OS by x10fevers. I think this is my last Rom I flash. I'm loving it.

Agree totally with @BordenG give the different flavors a try (miui, cm aokp etc) and find your personal favorite. One mans palace is another mans tent so to speak.

I agree, completely with him. But, oh well.
For HoneyComb, I've always preferred Galaxy Task 14. Its fast, stable, smooth, and it feels great. But if you're looking for a non-touchwized HC version I suggest Clean Rom. You'll need honeycomb for now if you want camera support, no ICS/JB ROMs support camera until Sammy' decides to cough up the source/drivers.
For ICS it really depends. CM9 nightly builds are great, but I've always gone back to AOKP nightlies/milestones after a CM9 flash. I feel AOKP has a quicker, snappier feel to it. Plus, AOKP is highly customizable. I suggest Milestone 6.
For JB theres just one port, but this really isn't for the faint of heart since wifi, sound, and the camera do not work at all. This is highly experimental and you really should go here if you're looking for a daily driver, but it is really smooth.
Overall, I suggest AOKP M6 its really smooth, and its ICS. The only down side is the camera issue.
With the ease of flashing these ROM's it would be beneficial to test each one and see what you think offers you the best stability, response, and works with whichever apps you use.
I have been playing with Scott's CleanROM 2.0 and Task650's Task14 slim. I am currently on Task's ROM and using Pershoots kernel. I honestly like both ROM's thus far.... going to test out Bindroid next.
Those roms task14 and clean are for wifi only he has p7500 use bindroid for honey comb or cyanogennod9 for ics.. I'd recommend cm9 look for it in cm9 Site as p4 with no variants but p4

Wait for stable Jelly Bean Rom
I have tested JB ROM. Still its to early to comment but its buttery smooth and lightning fast. After a stable rom comes. It would be way better then ICS or honeycomb.
Test and explore different Roms and decide for yourself. I settled on Task's Slim 14.

I don't see why that has to be the case, provided people can stay mature and polite to one another.
If the thread descends into flaming then of course it'll be locked but in the mean time, I see no reason not to give it a fair chance.

Hey guys I just purchased this one for my mother who is new to smart phones. I want to ask which rom is best for battery life and is stable? I searched on this forum and people were saying ICS Passion but that was a year or two ago and I saw that it is no longer supported. It was be awesome if you guys could recommend me a rom since my mom isn't much of a flash-a-holic so I don't want to flash each and every rom to test it for a day or two.
Thanks for the help.
*As compared to stock.
Since she's new to smartphones, I'd suggest a Froyo ROM. They have great battery life and simple to use interface. I can't say specifically which Froyo is better because I have JB. (Which I don't recommend for newbies.)
Well unfortunately the problem is almost every ROM is no longer coming out with new builds because they have moved on to new things. This means that they are all working on 4.2.1. Yet cm10 and hellybean are both very stable 4.1 ROMs. This is what I am running at the moment
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
I have a hard time believing someone actually recommended Passion.
I would go with either bionix (froyo) cm7 stable build or cm10. Don't flash a ICS ROM, you run the risk of EU bug.
