I have rooted my phone and cannot seem to find any stable 2.2 roms and rom manager(which I bought) has only 1 2.1 rom. its call BUUF and it isnt to my taste of looks. Any suggestions and or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Well, just about everything in the ROM Development section is stable now. You can pick whatever you would like. 2.1 has been out long enough now that our great developers have made many great custom roms. And Darchstar has been working on his Heroc version of Cyanogenmod (2.2) for quite a while as well. I'm running that personally, and it works better than anything I've run in the last (almost) year.

The Cynoogen 2.2 Extreme Blue has been extremely stable for me in fact I would say it's more stable and faster than the Sprint 2.1. Best Rom I've found by far

Hi,
I've searched but I didn't find this.
I've read that some phones never get a full "stable" release of cyanogen. I am currently running masters voodoo rooted rom but I quite fancy CM. Does it look like there will be a stable version, and does anyone have any idea how far in the future that might be.
Or is the current RC solid as a rock right now, or does it have bugs.
Thanks
Nexus S is a CM officially supported phone, it will certainly get CM7 final. I've been running CM7 RC1 since the day after I got my phone a bit more than a week ago, so far it works quite well and stable.

Thanks for your reply. I'll hang on then. I'd prefer to get the stable version. Any idea how long they think it will take. I've been on cm forum googling, but not getting anywhere.

Rule 1 of CM: Don't ask for ETAs.
Build #11 and above of nightlies are based on Android 2.3.3.
#12 probably seems the most stable. I'm using #13 and its fine for me although people have reported problems.
If you want pure stableness, it'd be RC1 but it is on 2.3.2

RC1 is just a nightly that was the line where they thought it was stable enough to promote. I don't think it's any more or less stable than any other nightly.

Nightly #13 is just as stable as rc1 at least for me anyways

i know that its a nightly but its also the one that brought new features that the previous nightlies didnt have such as the new lock screen.
RC2 coming tonight.
I had a lot of problems with CM7, but I was running Honity, as well. My experience was one of instability. I switched over to Axura and like it a lot.

I tried Axura last night and didn't like it at all. Also tried cm7 nightly 14 and I wasn't keen on it either. So far I haven't seen anything I like better than masters deodexed 2.3.3, so I'm back on that.

Just out of curiousity, what didn't you like about Axura?
On a more related note, as a flashaholic I've flashed every ROM available for the Nexus S and CM7 is the one I use as my Daily Driver. I'm on RC2 and can't remember the last time I had a random reboot. The other ROMs I have NANDroids of to be able to go between are Stock 2.3.3, Axura, and MIUI (I'm waiting for it to become a little more fleshed out before I really give it a go as a daily driver).

I thought Axura was nice and quick. The thing that made me remove it was the font believe it or not. It looks good in the menus but it was bad for reading emails and other small text.

Did you try flashing a different font or using font changer for root on the market? If that was really your only complaint you can very easily change such things.

I didn't know about either of the options you mentioned and I might just try them. I have no idea where you get fonts to flash, or what format they need to be in, and do you flash them the same way you flash everything else??
Been using RC2 with no issues ... love it.

Sonny has a few on his theme thread over in that section and yes its just like flashing s theme or a kernel except you do it last. Just give font changer a shot it's free

Yeah, I know it's a Q, but its a strictly ROM development Q. Is anyone working on an MIUI ROM? What are the issues/hurdles involved? As a non-developer, Ive a lot of curiosities concerning this.
BTW... THANK YOU!!! to ALL the Developers out there!!!!!!!!!!! For everything you do!
no, there is nobody working on miui, this because miui is based on cm7.
and because there isn't an stable fully working cm7 yet, the people that are making miui roms also won't start cooking.
we have to wait until there is an stable working cm7, only then we can talk about miui
Number 1: Doesn't matter what kind of question it is, still belongs in Q&A.
Number 2: No, not currently.

sorry if this is in the wrong section.
So now that we've got all these ROMs under dev for the Saga, I'm looking for a close to vanilla experience as possible on my Saga (I know its weird, considering I have a nexus s for that).
I sort of want to see how this would run without all the weight on it.
which one would be the best candidate?
Do some research here mate: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146601

hmmm... looks like none of them are very vanilla at the mo. guess I'll have to wait a few more weeks.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The most vanilla ROM that is fully working is CM7.
I have started a port of Oxygen ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1235864
It's not for daily use yet. It's still in alpha stage. I really hope that within some days/weeks we'll figure it out.

i wonder how far he is into it.
Just got a used Nexus S (i9020t) coming from a Vibrant. The number of AOSP based ROMS over here is very refreshing. Anyone have a recommendation for a 2.3.5 ROM that is stable, easy on battery, and fast? (Hey, I want all three). I've been running cm7 on my Vibrant, so I'm familiar with that. Is the last nightly stable? What about the Kanged versions? Should I be swapping out kernels?
Basically I'm looking for a solid ROM that I won't have to (or want to) mess with for a while. Thanks for any suggestions.

Try my rom. I just updated it 10 minutes ago. Fast and stable. If you're trying to save battery do an undervolt and lock the max speed to 800mhz.
Edit: ROM is called -=Nexus MV=-

Try a CyanogenMod 7 kang from Simms22 (you can get them on the CM7 Nightly thread): http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/gigg...cm-7.1.0-RC1-NS-KANG-signed.09142011-0558.zip
Flash the Google Apps package: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110729-signed.zip
Use the Trinity TUV kernel (it's broken at the moment, use this build from the 11th): http://morfic.euroskank.com/NS/TUV-Any-NS+4G-11092011.zip
CM7 is just... amazing. Use this for speed and very good battery.
I would recommend cm7 miui and Peter Alfonso. All very good roms. In my opinion Pete's rom has the best battery life but try them all and see what u like best. What works good for me may not work for u lol. Just try all the roms people on here said and see what works best for u

Im using CM7 ...but it is very disspointing me because of the battery..
just last for 10 hours..
I've been running Formels MIUI, it's on the devs forum here on the Nexus S, it seems to be stable compared to the stock MIUI and battery is better.
Still, I'm also looking for a Rom that improves the camera, recording still isn't as good as I wanted and sometimes I get the random freeze&reboot....

Why don't you try it at the specific rom section? Guess you can get there better results! AFAIK CM has an own homepage. Try it out. I'm not allowed to post URL-Links
I am very excited about CM9 and can't wait for a stable version of the rom. I'm guessing it won't be too long now until it is here.
CM9 has a own thread i think. It's still in development. A great System don't fall from the sky...
Im running the still beta on my desire from the desire forum here at xda and its the best android experience ive had so far. Never has my phone been this smooth and fast. And it seems pretty stable already too. So the future looks bright indeed.

Yes, cyanogenmod has their own website, but for a while now they haven't posted any updates on a stable build being released. You can find the beta if you do a google search though.
