[Q] Barebone (i mean barebone!) ROM based on 2.2? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, sorry to bring this Q here. I know i know - go look, search, find out. I hear you.
Been researching for a full day. But somethings require YOUR experience.
I am looking for a stable (!), good-battery (!) and bare-bone (minimal) ROM for my Vibrant.
(maybe my hate from running background stuff comes from ignorance, since I am no wiz when it comes to android)
I use GMAIL, Whatsapp, and Google Voice, and I can't stand running processes
Is there a ROM that you know to be made with this in mind?
Thanks !!!

Bionix 2.2

Thank you !!!
This is very rude of me to ask, but since there are so many roms - can you possibly link me?

Thank you !
Sorry to bother U with my ongoing questions.
Is the ROM you sent me the same/better than this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441976
Which one should I opt for? I got confused.
Thanks

the one I sent u is over a year old and is the most stable OG rom. That fishmanmod is the same rom just added some of his own tweaks so it may be better not sure haven't tried it. Its newer so go with the one u posted to see how u like it.

The fishmanmod rom is excellent. I'd highly recommend it.

are both of these to be found in the dev section?

yes, do a search while in the dev section

Which ROM?

Which Rom do you guys suggest? I've tried KaosFroyo, and no offense, but I wasn't blown away. I'm currentlly running TazzFroyo v14 vanilla and love it, but I'm curious about Nonsensikal v10.8.1 [Froyo|Black&Blue|Vanilla]. Which do you suggest?
Tazz v14 or Nonsensikal v10.8.1
THank you!

This may not be what you are looking for, but hands down the best I have tried are the XtrRom and XtrSense ROMs.
THE most stable operating and has the best battery life I have used since rooting months ago. I love these ROMs!
Good luck!

hahahahhaa.... hes right, but i answered anyway... silly me
The only thing that held me back from trying the XTR ROMs is that I don't have Amon's recovery image, which they both require. I know this is probably a dumb question, but if I wanted to use those roms how do I get the image?

Instead of doing that though; you should really look in to figuring out how to push Amon's on to your phone through the great guides on the forum. It may take a little time, but it REALLY helps when something goes wrong (and things really do go wrong from time to time) so that you're not like "oh ****, I'm screwed" and then fly off the handle.
The guys here are WONDERFUL at helping out -- and you can always jump in to IRC and ask specific questions. I got stuck just last week and I went in, and Conap himself helped me reinstall his ROM from the ground up (and I was stuck in stock 1.5 w/ no root lol). The other guys were also very nice and helpful, and it's a really good vibe.
I feel like a hippy saying all this sh*t, but seriously dude -- try it out. Never hurts to learn -- and from what I've experienced personally, practice gets you better every time.
PS: I like CELB -- I'm about to flash Tazz Vanilla 14 or 15 (whatever the current build is) though to try it out.

[Q] AOSP Gingerbread

Are there any AOSP gingerbread roms for the eris that anyone knows of? Thats all I really want, cyanogen mod and all the extras that come on most eris ROMs just arent for me. I like clean AOSP

As far as I know, we haven't had a true, clean, non-CM, AOSP ROM since 2.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773127&highlight=Vanilla). I tried with Froyo with only partial success. It seems that the mods that the CM team has done allow us to work around the fact that HTC hasn't given us new drivers & libs since 2.1 and we are still on a 2.6.29 kernel. So, that's why you see new CM ROMs, but not AOSP.
That's how I understand it anyway. As always, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
And feel free to prove me wrong by building a GB AOSP ROM! I'd love to see one. It's nice to have options.
It's beeing done bro.. well so I'm told that's what it is

cool, got it loaded and on nand for later toying. Up to now I've been using a market GB launcher port (Launcher2 its called) on CM7 when the mood hit for a vanilla GB feel (which makes it feel very simular to this rom). I cant explain but there's an envy I get everytime I look at a vanilla nexus gingerbread (and its not the phone). I also had this complex with asop froyo but got over it.

Safest is always full wipe, but if noone in the Tazz 17 thread has said what worked for them, you could do a nandroid, just wipe Dalvik (not .android-secure) and flash over. Then if it gives trouble, nandroid restore your backup, backup your apps your favorite way (if you want to), then do a full wipe and flash, then restore your apps.

What's the best ROM out right now???

I'm currently using the latest Sombionix Rom and I want to check out some others. Can u guys point me in the right direction please... Thank u!!!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
All of them lol cm7 , trigger, bionix, and bi winning with bullllllllllet .
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I started with Bionix but I just recently flashed Trigger. Trigger is pretty rad.
Same here. Ran several versions of Bionix, got bit by the flashing bug and switched to Trigger. Been running the Overstock kernel for a while but am about to try out Bali.
Let me answer your question with a question:
Which make of car is the best?
If this thread stays serious long enough you will find, like most "Which is the best (insert any tangible object here)?" threads, every ROM will get a few hits.
/sarcasm off
On a serious note I have gone between Eugene's ROMs, Sombionix's ROMs and a few of EDT's ROMs. They all have their perks and for some they all have their short comings. If you want the custom ROM feel with a relatively painless installation, go with the one of the above. If you want something a little more custom go with MiUi or CM7 or a few of the other projects.
I personally use Trigger 2.9.4 with OverStock 2.x and enjoy it quite a lot. In the past I've enjoyed Eugene's MacNut series, nearly all of Som's 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs and EDT's Flagship and Trigger.
tl;dr
Pick one yourself and see how it goes, restoring from a backup isn't all that difficult.

The devs in this forum are so amazing, and their ROMs of such quality, that you owe it to yourself to try them all to find out which you like the most.
well since its already been said like 5 times, I'm just going to agree that I put on trigger 3 rom a few weeks ago and have been running overstock kernel for a while before that. but the 2 together. un-freaking believably awesome.
I repeat.. *ehem*

Now tell me what was more useless, my post, or his? You didn't have to be a douche and tell him it's a useless post. It's just in the wrong section.
As for the actual question, why not try jt's CM7? It's very stable and I've been using it without issue. Though it does have the same bugs as the MIUI ROM.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Okay, I guess I wasn't clear in my last response to you so let me rephrase what I said in that other thread:
There is no good reason whatsoever to use DJ05. Even if you want to run Eclair, it's still outdated.
Why you'd choose Eclair over Froyo (or Gingerbread, if you don't mind some problems) is a mystery to me, but again, even if you want to run 2.1 instead of 2.2 or 2.3 DJ05 is the wrong choice.
EDIT: Also, as the above poster hinted at, please do read the stickied posts, particularly this one about posting in the wrong section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038478

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
