Hey guys need your expert help, actually my girlfriend uses the ACE and i wanted to install a custom rom for her which is smooth n does not lag preferably looking for a daily driver. Need to know which is best rom which can fill the requirements.
Thanks
there are many same threads of this

None is the best. Saying so is like insulting dev working hard on other roms. Its just the matter of preference.
If u looking for stability and daily driver, go for any custom rom based on stock.
And if u do a little search, most thread asking for "best ROM" were closed by mods.
Sent from your phone
Well, if you want to go with a CM7.2 I highly recommend Jusada's Ice Cream Sundae FINAL. It runs smoothly and really fast.
But if you want a modified stock rom, you have Stock Lite v5 which is pretty damn good and you have quick reply from the dev if you encounter any problem.
I installed The Myth's Team's Imaginary ICS today, and I have to tell that it blown me away. Pretty fast and stable. And can't complain about the battery so far either.
Hope I helped
dude did u read sticky threads
if u didnt READ!
there are to much threads with best rom question
and i thought its gonna stop after that sticky thread
but noobs dont read
and there is no best rom cause of several reasons:
1.different base rom (cm7,cm9(beta),stock,lewa rom,miui rom)
2.its disrespectful to the developers
3.u need to make your own choice
You are not going to get an answer here so just PM me
guys i know how the search options works & checked out a ton of roms but the reason i created this thread was to know which of these roms do u guys think would serve my purpose.
i had no intention of being disrespectful to the developers n judging them in terms of work, we all know how hard they work so that we can get the best out there.
i've currently downloaded CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0-GT-S5830-GalaxyICS-KANG-nigthly i love the smoothness will check it out for a couple of hours & see how things go, the only problem i saw was the camera wont launch.
Next i'll be trying Jusada's Ice Cream Sundae FINAL
judging your responses you should look for a stock based ROM. Those have good battery life and are great for daily use. CM 7.x and 9 are just for performance, doesn't seem to be you need that. stocklite or omegarom works fine.

just a matter of time mods will close this thread. u should try n error instead of asking this sensitive question. u dont even have to pay to use their roms...
o.k this isn't a best rom... wave your pom poms... I'm so excited I just flashed a new rom thread
back in the day when we were making MP's (monster packs) on Argon, we wouldn't release the MP until it was perfect (or as close to perfect as we could get) :angel:
I was just thinking, that I've had mys SGS-2 about 7 months and 99% that time I can't remember it not having any bugs!!
Personally, I actually enjoy finding work arounds/solutions for the dreaded bug :fingers-crossed:
I don't know linux, nor do I have the time or energy to learn :cyclops: this thread is designed to share - objective findings of an anecdotal nature...
i.e. Rom Y - was super stable & I even did A, B & C to it :highfive:
nothing boils my bunions more than looking through an OP & seeing ' don't post bugs' or 'rom has known issues' or claims of curing cancer in thread title... really!? [slight exaggeration - devs do it too]
as users, I believe we have a right to critique work put forward by devs... i.e. if your willing to put yourself out there, you should expect to get feedback both positive & negative
plus, objective critiques should keep devs honest and hopefully ensure a high standard of work :victory: {we really need a dev rating system} @ staff
anyway - enough preaching for the time being - let's get down to rom+stability
For me, most stable rom was :drum-roll: Wajk's WIUI (his take on MIUI) - I used GB version... if memory serves correctly - as provided by Wajk it was 99.99% bug free ^^ (it's GB it should be) then I added Fluxxi kernel (NB, there is english version of kernel app)
& then I supercharged it all of the above made ph super smooth/snappy & made the battery grow some huge kahones...
Why aren't I on it now just like most others I'm after the latest fix i.e. 4.1.2 JB
but every now and then I almost get the urge to restore that blend of rom & tweaks - just to compare it to 4.1.2 but, I get scared that if I do - I'll find out that 4.1.2, aint all it's cracked up to be - so I put up with... well the bugs! :chortle:
Now - share your findings -=or=- lambaste me with your critique -=or=-

Lol agreed now you are probably gonna experience sarcasms and links to xda rules, so anyway before anything happens i tried several and i now bet on cm 9.1 as my daily driver, i flashed several roms used it for a day or two then as quickly as I flashed i jump back to cm9 through backup as it's the most fastest to my taste. I use ClockworkMod's kernel now but my favorite is definitely Siyah. Testing battery life comparison now, heating issues in heavy load too also being tested.

Hear, hear!
There isnt even a "known issues" list anymore ("because every device is different blah blah") and we can't discuss which roms work best ("because every rom is different etc etc ad nauseam").
In my very personal opinion, coming from the Asus TF101 forum here in XDA, where we can definitely discuss better roms and make comparisons this approach isn't very constructive.
If anyone disagrees, again, it's just my point of view.
ps.: The NeatRom thread is a breath of fresh air, really democratic with a lot of ideas and suggestions being exchanged between users and devs.
pps.: I hope I don't get banned for expressing my point of view. :fingers-crossed:
He He,
You've asked the question of the year !!! For me, it's RR 2.7 ICS & Siyah 501 ( Levi's - best ). still have it as backup on SD, PC ,Moon ....

However you dress this up, its still a "best rom" thread and just leads to same answers which are subjective and opinions.

^^ This.
The most stable ROM is likely the stock ROM. If you want the most stable "custom" ROM, use one that is almost identical to a stock ROM.
Please, no more threads on ROM comparisons. Try them out and see which one is appropriate for your usage patterns. A stable ROM for one person is not for another.
I am currently on PA 3.68 and was on Omega for short time and before that I was on Viking.
Can anyone suggest a good ROM at present. On PA 3.68 , my battery is draining a lot faster. I tried to find if any application is consuming , but it seems its not the case.
So please suggest a stable , faster and better battery ROM.
'Which rom' threads are against the rules, try some yourself but don't share the results please.
Yup , first decide which one you want for yourself , a aosp or sammy base ROM.

Despicable me Minion Rush Lags a lot in SIII
Even i want a ROM which consumes less battery, currently on Omega ROM 4.1.2, has average battery drain but lags a lot when i play Despicable me Minion Rush game, I know the game has pretty high end graphics but my friend can play this game without any lags in his Galaxy SII, if a galaxy SII can play this game without any lags why cant SIII, Please someone suggest me a ROM which has good graphics performance with less to moderate battery consumption. P.s I never turned on Power saving mode while playing the game so my phone is functioning with 4 cores al the time.
I am thinking of opting to Liquid smooth ROM ...which is very less in size around 120MB ..whats your suggestion guys.
With all due respect , Asking fellow users which rom they use and which they feel or suggest to others is unreasonable ?
Not many have the time to check multiple ROMs and come to a conclusion.
It takes atleast a week to settle with a new rom . Apart from this configuring each app , etc will take loads of time.
I tried three roms , all different ones , but cant able to find a good rom whcih has good battery , or faster ROM.
If you think , you can suggest , please do .
If mods feel this is against rule , please help me and fellow members who need some kind of pathway to get good ROM. Tried and tested ones.

I'm afraid so. So many people ask the same question, the rule is to stop the forum being drowned in these thread. There is no real answer anyway, other than go back to stock and disable all the bloat.
All that will happen now is that this thread will get locked by a mod.

look at the popularity of the rom's threads in the dev section and you will have a direction on which rom is most popular / most used.
battery, speed etc. depends on your usage, hence there is NO way we can tell you what is best for YOU.
Omega was popular , but i tried 4.2.2 version of its ROM and faced few issues.
I am ready to try new ROM , but there are multiple ROM`s now , so among them , i dont know which one to pick.
Of course its hard to say which is better , atleast some user feedback would be good.

read the respective rom's threads (start with the most popular once, here you can look for instance at how often updated, how many posts in total etc.), tons of user feedback and after that you can decide by yourself.
ok will try...
Yeah it kinda sucks that best rom threads are against the rules but since most roms are published in xda noone want to create controversy directly IN xda.
Anyways i will answer cause i dont really care and cause that's what people that have the same phone do: give each other suggestions about software.
So.
first off i will state it's best you do NOT use aosp roms, they tend to drain your battery much quicker than samsung ("sammy") based ones. and samsung based ones are more stable.
secondly i suggest you do not flash any 4.2.2 roms yet, and definitely not any 4.3 roms.
Thirdly i will suggest probably one of the most popular roms for s3 (also the one i think is the best. And the one which sure has a higher costumizability rate than any other) because i like it, because it consumes significatively less battery thank my stock rom, because it's cool with all it's customizations: foxhound.
Like i said best rom threads ARE against the rules but im just gonna give my opinion here, so i have to remind you to keep in mind i have only tried a limited amount of roms (7? maybe 10 i dunno...) and my opinions can be very limited do not swear by them.
Not that we got copyright acts out of the way i will tell you i think omega is a good rom but not great. I mean it does everything many other roms do and with not so great performance or battery drainage, but not bad either...lets say its average and very stable and leave it at that.
Also check kernels and cpu governors to tweak performance/battery options.
use apps like greenify to control apps that run in background and apps like 3g watchdog to check apps that download in background and apps like the es system utility thing (it like an addon app to the file browser) that has integrated app startup manager, thats useful too.
But having a fast and stable rom isn't just about choosing the rom or kernel, it's about spending time (a week should be enough) to check it all, get into its nooks and crannies and tweak it everywhere!
Its about checking your battery life, which apps consume battery?
And bam, you find out 10% is consumed by that led color controller app that you dont even use. So delete, disable, kill.
You gotta make the right choices, use the right apps to tweak your system, and uninstall all the useless ones.
Get INTO those settings!
Get INTO dev options and set screen drawing to gpu instead of cpu!
Set animations to 0.5secs instead of 1!
Get INTO that s**t!
This is how you take care of a problem...android is not for iphone users
Use the power your phone really has, the beating heart of unix!
use it!

Thread Closed
Hello,
I was really into XDA forum few years ago but some things got into my life so I backed off a bit. I still got my SGS II tho and there is Siyah Kernel 3.0.33 - 3.3.1+ version installed on top of Ressurection Remix ICS 2.0 by westcrip 4.0.4.
As I'm not into the flow anymore and I need advice fast as possible because I'm reformating my SGS II soon - I need recommendation. I need a ROM who currently gives me the most bugfixes and most stability and speed. That's all I'm about, I like speed, good functions and a lot of bugfix/speed scripts automatically installed but still - ROM that flows with newest Android versions.
Can I get recommendation for ROM and Kernel?
Thanks.
No, you can't. Rom/kernel recommendations are forbidden here. For a simple reason - you will not have the same experience of a given rom or kernel as someone else due to phone setup & usage. There are too many variables involved.
Make a nandroid, go over to the two development sections, read some thread, try out some roms/kernels.
Mods will be closing this thread shortly.
I would rather spent my time testing someones recommendation then trying so many ROM's by my own hand, this way I can set the percentage of **** ROM's down to less percent and good stuff higher ... but yeah, thanks, you were very, very helpful.
Not interested. Rules are you try these things yourself. Stop being lazy.
More like an order, I'm not lazy, I'm just trying to spare time, and I guess everyone does that, maybe not if you don't have anything important to do. I'm not saying this to interest you ...
Thread closed as its a Best ROM thread.
hello
i need rom haven't lagg and nice battery life
thanks
1. go to the ROMs section,
2. look at the threads, read commentary,
3. flash what looks like best idea, test it.
4. if ROM is good, stay on it; if not, go back to 1
5. stop creating unecessary topics.
6. Success.
No, really, asking questions like this is so frustrating. I moved from device which had like 3 AOSP ROMs, it was such a limited choice and people still asked which one is better instead of testng and finding what works best for them. Gorramnit. Don't be lazy, what's good for me or someone else maybe isn't good for you.

mate, you not help us ...
I need to know something about camera quality (HDR etc), no lag or battery life to and we need that informations if someone test custom roms.
We don't have time to waste to read each post and thinking about what is better in some rom than other roms...
If you can help us, help us ...
I would recommend RR OS

Now back to english: Noone can tell you what's good for you, except yourself. I like barebone, nearly AOSP stuff, with constant updates and improvement and official support, which means it's with zero hastle, so anything except Lineage is a no-go in my case. Somebody else likes themes, bells and whistles, so that person would recommend something different. That's why comment sections are there - you can see how ROM is performing, possible bugs, what to take care of, and, more important - ROM features. You don't have to read all, use search and/or check last 10 pages for bugs, and you're good to go. Or even search for this same theme, I think this is 3rd or 4th thread with same question.
Yes, not everyone have the same taste
Try cosmic ROM. Been using it as a daily driver since a month. Good battery life and smooth ROM. Camera isn't any different. Its same as any camera app found in other ROMs.
RR is the best
