Which rom is better in your opinion? Vegan or TNT
I have enjoyed Vegan more, only because i couldn't get the market to fix in tnt, but first try with vegan and it worked. That may be because i was doing something wrong in tnt, but that's it. I've been using vegan for 2 weeks now and i'ts very solid.
Which is better
I've tried TnT and VEGAn. TnT bombed the first time when I loaded 4.0. I switched to VEGAn and it worked straight away. I did, call me a sucker, go back and TnT 4.2.2 is working great for me. Only thing I miss from VEGAn is the ability to lock the screen.
What's in 4.2 that isn't in 4.1? I'm using 4.1 and everything is working. I am considering 4.2 but would like to know what the difference is. Do you know?
When I first got my gtab last week I flashed TnT. I was able to get the market running, but after a few hours it would pop a gapps error, and I would run the market fix again. Had to do this a few times a day.
I wiped and flashed Vegan and have been running it for the last 4 days with no issues. The lock screen is awesome and have had zero issues with the market
Highly recommend Vegan!

After messing around with the five or so availale ROMS, I decided to make the VEGAn 5.1 beta my daily driver, it and TnT lite are the most stable IMHO, I chose VEGAn over TnT because the news and weather genie was absent from TnT and the VEGAn web browser offers much more flexibility as far as options go. I'm a news junkie!
Also the On-Screen soft keys on the notification bar [HOME, MENU, and BACK] are fantastic additions to VEGAn since the keys on the device don't light up, which makes it real [email protected]%# when using the device in a poorly lighted room so that would be wonderful if that feature was kept.
I have to agree with Vegan. I bought my pad two days ago and decided to go with Vegan. Flash and the Market are already installed. And having the menu, home, and back on the screen really makes getting around easier.
Now If I can just figure out how to use the host USB port.
I would have to say vegan.
I like the notification bar on TNT better, but I find Vegan just slightly more solid.

Recently installed GAdam 1.1.0 and love it. Real nice and pretty simple UI. Running very stable. Didn't try Quad yet, played Angry Birds thou (LOL). Smooth transitions no FC on any app I tried. So, I believe I found the one I like and will stick with it till Honeycomb comes out (keep my fingers and toes crossed LOL).
vegan i would say
Also been running VEGAn - TAB V1.0.0B5.1
Several weeks now works without issues.

You can always check the changelog. It's usually a mix of enhancements and stock updates. Some are minor changes, some are more major.
4.2.0 updated the TnT base to stock 3588. And I added the Gingerbread keyboard and upped the frame rate to 60.
Same here..Vegan. Running about a month with no isses. Posted a 1825 on Quad. Am happy!
I gotta cast my vote for Tnt. I've been running it since January, and have had no issues at all, and the market fix worked like a charm. The one thing I will say is, I have a 5 year old who loves to play angry birds and play a drawing game, and she is at home with TnT which is the main reason I haven't tried a different ROM.
My vote is for VEGAn, I just couldn't get the hulu fix to work on TnT and when I flashed VEGAn onto my tab last night worked right away. I also got all 5 stars on the market.
I have had my gtab for about 2 weeks now and tried out TNT as a first shot and it was good till installed some app and scrambled it. After that I kept getting FC's all the time.
Decided to go to the gAdam yesterday and I must say it seem to be solid. I have not had any problems with the market, like I have seen else where, and I just love the interface.
Rock on guys keep up the great work on all of the roms.
A big thanks to all of the devs who are working on the gTab.
i just picked up this tablet for my sister and chose to go with TnT Lite 4.2/4.2.5 to speed it up a little bit and so she can download some games and apps.
i ran a quadrant score against my rooted Xoom (not overclocked) and got the same scores, between 2000-2100ish.
no problems whatsoever with this TnT rom and i am quite impressed at the speed of it. at times it seems snappier/quicker then my Xoom.
TnT Lite is what I am currently running. Of course there are a few things I dont but there are a lot of things I do like. Is a great stable rom. The widgets take up way to much space in landscape mode.
I also have played with Vegan, but have an issue with the switching of landscape mode. The standard home screen doesn't switch! Otherwise its a great rom.
have had mine for about 2 weeks.
i just installed caulkin's 1.0 ROM, then put clemsyn's patch on it got CIFS.
i was running Vegan for a week before that.
i would like to switch to the stock or NI browser, and i should have backed up the NI keyboard before going to caulkin's. but i'll figrure out how to download and put them on as APK.s
Hi all
I have a galaxy Tab and Nexus S ..when Nexus S is faster the bowser isnt impressive on both devices..
I yesterdfay installed OVERCOME rom on my Galaxy Tab and..browser is even smoother than IPAD..i mean really really buttery smooth i will try to upload a video..Can any one using Overcome rom confirm me the changes made so that we can have same quality of browser on Nexus S because GOOGLE so far is behaving like a **** to us..
Its a reall wonderful i checked now on galaxy Tab.Specs are same for Nexus S.Please i need positive replies..currently there is no rom which makes browser buttery smooth...Let me tell you Opera is very smooth but in case of OVERCOME rom now stock browser is matchless fastest and smoothest browser i have seen in life...much smooth what apple can offer thats a fact even with FLASh on
Opera is smooth but the interface is not user friendly. It would be great if xda developers can mod nexus s browser
Sent from my NOOB Nexus S with the poor english by using XDA Premium App
opera is s smooth bro but The browser mod i talked about is much buttery than opera...is their anyone from Google team on this thread...such a expensive phone with a pathetic browser...
Can anyone confirm a ROM which includes galaxy S JPu browser...It was a great browser
Let me verify that FLASH is not responsible for LAG...i confirmed this s from my experience of android phones till date.
This is not connected with Flash performance. Problem occurs on many browsers not only stock browser. Only ones that work fine is Opera or firefox (but slower).
O think this is a driver problem - same lag exists in Waze app (free gps application) while not occuring on for example DHD.
cant they make drivers for their flagship device..thats certainly unbelivable

Yeah, the situation is extremely frustrating. I probably would return my Nexus if it was possible at this point. The browser issue can be fixed by using opera (which is everything except perfect), but there are a lot of other ui elements that suffer from this too.
Can't believe nexus has had this good reviews as it has. Also, I can't believe Google's attitude towards this problem, perhaps they can fix it with ice-cream sandwich, but that ain't coming until Q4, a year after the phone's launch.
I find it quite interesting that other android phones, phones with skins, don't suffer the lag issue - or nearly to the extent the nexus suffers. God, it simply isn't acceptable to wait until November-September time frame... iPhone may be limited to the extreme, but at least it works. I loved my Desire from the beginning, should have not sold it.
Please, star the bug report from the link.

There is yet another bug report for the whole UI.

And also a bug report concerning hw-acceleration, marked as solved, but it still has a lot of new reports.

I, personally, and probably many others, would appreciate if users that experience (all?) there problems would star these as issues, or at least the first one.
gee i thought i was the only one who noticed this lag
i come from an iphone, so i know what "buttery smooth" means... the nexus s is NOT "buttery smooth"
the stock browser SUCKS.. can't handle images very well (try scrolling up and down http://www.anandtech.com/ you'll see what i mean)
i use opera because it's the smoothest browser out there... i've tried firefox and stock browser wrappers like dolphin, miren, etc but they all lag in comparison... i use opera with the stock browser's user agent because web developers don't care about opera (browse the internet with stock opera settings and u'll see what i mean)
btw, do you think this will work? [MOD][JVQ] NEW LAGFREE BROWSER for DEODEXED JVQ-ROMS

What I think is interesting is how many people on the forums who say they love this phone because it is "PURE GOOGLE!" as if they did not realize that the issues are not getting fixed in a timely manner. (radio issues, battery issues, browser lag, etc.)
I'm using opera as well. The stock browser is a pile of garbage when there's more than a few images. It's pretty sad.

try browsing websites with multiple images (www.anandtech.com www.futureshop.ca etc...)
if it doesn't lag at all for you (iphone smooth) then i might have to give CM7 nightly and trinity kernel a try too

here you go, i went to both sites http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKLTpgYXae0
wow that's impressive! what's your secret?
i can't stand the stock browser lag... and i can't stand the non-webkit opera... i want the best of both worlds (smooth and well supported, respectively)
here's a video i just made:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpuaNanxdEE
this test is repeatable with stock rom, previous netarchy kernels, trinity uv11 kernel... haven't tried cm7 though
now i just might have to cm7 nightly and/or trinity kernel... i have a feeling it has something to do with cm7 nightly

The browser is usually pretty fast after a fresh reboot. Give it a couple of days without a reboot and the browser slows down quite a bit even with cm 7.1 nightly and trinity kernel.
That being said, cm 7.1 does have some performance mods that make it faster than stock.
So is the browser laggy or websites not configured right for mobile view
Happens on my tablet some sites are great and some not so good

Its the browser... opera can handle these websites no problem... so can my iPhone 3gs
I will try cm7 nightly

eww.. i see what youre talking about. im glad that i dont get that! what kind of data speeds do you see, because that will affect it too.
I'm just so effin fustrated cause this crap is getting old. ALL I WANT IS A PHONE THAT DOES WHAT IS SAYS! Stock was crap, so I rooted. Now the Roms I've tried are way above what stock was. I'm gratefull to all the Devs that make this all possible. I'm in no way upset with all their hard work. They've worked hard to improve the crappy stock ROMs. Here's a list of my probs...and this is common with ALL ROMS, stock, custom, bloated, debloated, odexed, deodexed, w/ voodoo, w/out voodoo. most of my probs are with the net.
4g freezes...I get constant hiccups when I need the net the most. I just want it to work all the time..jebus!
HotSpot freezes...this is caused by the problem above. Now I pay for hot spot and use the App, and since rooted I use WiFi tether. Still same prob. My PC loads pages fast and DL quickly, then all of a sudden...nothing. I have to cycle Airplane mode. This is just getting old already...just work like it does in the damn commercials!
SiriusXM....I love listening to it. I listen in the car, but when I have a 4G hicupp, music is gone...cycle airplane mode...or restart cause the App gets frozen as well. The app works by DL about 5 mins of airplay at a time...I get stops and freezes when it does that too.
Madden 12 not smooth...why have a game compatable with a phone that doesn't work properly? BS...
Same with Skype...never works like it should.
I just want my phone, apps, and internet to work when I need it. IS that too much to ask? I can never catch a break. Right now I'm on HumbleComb 4.0. So far this is the best ROM I've had. Still have same probs, but they happen fewer than with other ROMS...
I never tired Darkcharge cause it didn't have the toolbox. Now that it does I might try it. Should I? Or should I wait for the new 2.3.5 that P3 has been saying is the best Stock ROM beating out MotoBionic, and HTC Tbolt?
Anyone else have all these issues? Am I too picky? Just wanted to vent my frustration and see if other experience the same.
Check your PM.
sucks to hear you're having these problems but a lot of them are hardware/software related an not fixable as of yet, there is a huge issue with data connectivity on the Charge which seems to be the huge deal and the GB leaks are full of bugs (and not officially supported yet which is why there's problems with apps/games on GB)... the only thing I could suggest is Imnuts Infinity rom, I had maybe 1 little issue the whole time I ran it which I unfortunately can't say about the other roms
blazing through on my 4G Droid Charge
The best luck I've had is with the ep1w leak that I manually de-bloated, and zipalign using the ron toolbox. Also installed immuts repacked 2.3.5 voodoo kernal. Runs smooth. I can't remember my last force close or restart since I've been on this set up. Also using launcher pro plus

Thanks for the replys...I will try what has been suggested... still I hope when we finally get an official update(2.3.5)...and the ROMs that follow that..
Can anyone experienced with the touchpad and cm7 tell me if there's a way to just load cm7 on the touchpad and not have the Webos?
While it might be possible to completely remove webos, it is not a good idea at this time. Remember that cm7 is an alpha release right now. The only way to completely restore your touchpad, in the event of a crash, is through webos doctor. If you were to remove webos and cm7 crashes, you have no method of restoring the tablet and have just converted it into an expensive doorstop.

easy as pie
all you do is don't install moboot
IMHO I won't do it. I have had CM7 on my TP for a couple of weeks and it's cool but, not prefect. The WiFi comes and go and someting you and get the market place(Amazon's and Google's ) and other times it won't connect. It's not a Wifi problem because the browser works fine at the same time. When it starts to mess up I switch back to WebOS and everything is fine on WebOS.
I also would not remove it quite yet. As said above, it's nice but still not ready for 100% prime time use on the device.
I know. I can't connect to the amazon or andriod market now on CM7

Don't know if you've already found your answer, but if you boot back into webos and then back to cm7 it will let you go back into both markets. It gets annoying, but it only takes a couple of seconds.
Not too sure which version of cm7 you are running but I run the xron mod of cm7. It is b2.9.1 and I do not have any wifi issues. The mod is super fast and responsive. Wifi connects and stays stable even when I move to different routers. Check out the xronified thread in the touchpad development section of this forum. Once installed, you will not regret it. Just sayin....

I recently installed this ROM on my dev phone, and while it's working a lot better than I expected that it could, I have a couple questions:
1) Is there any way to make Pandora stay running? Right now it gets maybe 25% though a song before it crashes. This is from a fresh boot, with no additional apps open, and Pandora running in the foreground.
2) Same thing as above, memory issues. The stock browser randomly closes, and Chrome is impossible.
I know that it's just an alpha, and a nice one at that. Just wondering if anyone could enlighten me a bit.
Thanks!
I think that the OG Droid just doesn't have enough RAM to run ICS and above well. I used CM 9 for a while but flashed to MIUI recently, was blown away by speed
I think 4.0 and 4.1 on the droid are just proof of concepts, not really supposed to work well
