[Opinion][Updated]Inspire Best ROM (I tried them all)

I got my Inspire on release day at 11:00am when BB opened and by 3pm i ran the ace hack kit and it was rooted and had a DHD ROM flashed on the phone. For the first week there was not a whole lot of ROM's or options, but week 2 and 3, they popped up like a bag of popcorn.
The first set of ROM's and kernels (Desire HD ROM's) left people with dingy sound, no you-tube or any video support at all for that matter. Other people experienced Wi-Fi problems as well. Different fixes and patches came out fixing most problems, except sound seems to be the biggest headache trying to find the right combination of audio settings, drivers, etc.
My favorite ROM was CoreDroid, basically because the theme is beautiful, but no matter what radio/kernel I used It took literally 15 minutes to get a satellite lock. I tried faster fix from the market, I went into the system to make sure it was set to North-America and not Europe nothing worked.
Android Revolution is another awesome ROM, however, I had Wi-Fi issues. "Obtaining IP Address" is as far as it would get before finally disconnecting. Once again I flashed different radios and kernels and still no go.
What I finally kept is the Stock ROM Optimized Rooted and to make this ROM super responsive I used LeeDroid's 1.8Ghz Kernel. I use SetCPU and keep it at 1.267Mhz. (1.6Mhz when playing games or multitasking. Never locked up) I can open my app drawer and give it one flick, and i can watch 90 apps zoom by in less then a second with no hesitation ever. It's very fast, very smooth, no force closes, Gps hits 9 satellites in less then 15 seconds we have full lock, mobile data is 3.8 down, 2.2 up (average) bluetooth file transfer works, and voice activated dialing, sound is perfect, and for people looking to tether, just get wireless tether from the market. It does Wi-Fi and bluetooth. I tethered to my playstation 3 just to see how well it would do a HD netflix stream, and it was flawless. Never had to stop to buffer.
I'm also on the stock radio which is 06.04.06_m, Everything is so smooth and perfect I see no need to change until AT&T releases there version of gingerbread and it has ROOT access. The problems I have had with different ROM's are isolated and doesn't mean your going to have the same problem. It's weird but that's how it works. 2 exact phones, both running same setup, can have 2 totally different problems. Just the way it is in Flashing Land.
I'm no Pro, just giving my opinion and facts with my particular unit. The different ROM's seems to be like the captivate. You gain something, you lose something.
Super Circle Battery Icon works great as well. Get it here
3/16/2011 - Version 2 flashed without a glitch. Wireless, Gps, mobile data, all work as well or better. I also flashed LeeDroid's 2.2. 6 o/c kernel and everything is dead on. Great Job

That's all I want to do it root it, increase the volume and get wifi tether working. Right now if you want to not have any drivers issues it seems like the current on the phone works best Thanks for the info!
I also wanted to increase the cpu speed, did you take much of a hit on the battery?

Not at all, it last all day. Put SetCPU on "ondemand" and when I'm not using phone for awhile I simply type *#*#4636#*#* and set is to GSM only and that's another way to save a lot of battery. I also use a app called easy switch where I can turn off mobile data completely when not in use. I have awesome battery life.

i've been using the cm7 nightlies. i don't particularly enjoy htc sense and rather prefer the aosp style android.

I too am loving the Stock ROM Optimized-Rooted-etc. I've only tried it and a build of CM7, which seemed not quite as smooth as the aforementioned ROM. Additionally, whenever I played the game Rush Hour and got a perfect score, it would always force close [not a problem with the stock-optimized ROM].
I am considering trying LeeDroid's kernel on top of Stock-optimized ROM to boost performance a little more, but I'm a little unsure about the process. Do I just copy his kernel to my sd card and then flash it in CWM Recovery using the "install zip from sdcard" command? I assume a similar technique is used to install the super circle battery mentioned in the OP?

I don't see RCMix HD in the OP. I've been using 3.4 and it's solid. If you look at the thread there's hardly any complaints.

Great write-up. I've been thinking about starting a thread asking developers/users to give a quick description of popular ROMs and go over the pros/cons. It's kind of difficult to sift through 200+ pages of discussions about each ROM and get a clear idea what it's like. Thanks for throwing your 2 cents in. I've been happy with the stock rooted ROM, but I've thought about trying out a couple of others, maybe Revolution, if anyone wants to through 2 more cents into the pot.

I really like the Stock Rom Optimized Rooted as well. I'm not getting as high upload speed as you are, but about 4 times higher than I was getting out of the box. And everything is very smooth onscreen as you mention.
I like Hybrid1.72.zip battery icon with it.
I haven't tried overclocking yet, but after reading your post, that is my next project!

Im building a rom/kernel now based off stock Rom and compiling kernel from inspire source. Already got the extended power menu done, hopefully it'll be out in a few days. Not sure if the kernel will be done or not but hopefully I can get it out at the same time as the Rom.

+1 for Optimized Stock Rom. I liked Android Revolution, but my Inspire would take 10-15 minutes to get a GPS lock. With OSR, I get lock in 15-30 seconds. No downside to this ROM at all for me!

I also still use one of your Roms and will without fail try one in the Inspire when you finish cooking!

Right now I'm undecided and switching between Revolution 4 Beta 2 Gingerbread and twopumpchump's Stock optimized with LeeDroid kernel. I'm getting better download speeds with the latter option but both are exceptionally good roms.

MIUI is very nice and very different. I like it, but if you are sticking to a Samsung ROM - try Continuum. It has TW4 and is very smooth.

Continuum 5.4.1 has TW4. In the latest release (5.5) he went back to TW3 for performance. I thought 5.4.1 w/ TW4 was pretty speedy - definitely liked it better than TW3.

how is the battery life in Continuum?

Im loving Phoenix Mosaic right now, been running it since the first release .. but honestly the only way to find you own personal preferance is to try a bunch of ROMS yourself.

GR-12, enough said!
Caution swyping! Read at your own risk.

Contiuum 5.5.... Great battery life and buttery smooth. Havent had one problem with it yet, including the ever nasty charging bug.(least not as bad as some other ROMs that Ive tried).
On average I can get 20+ hours on medium..... 15-17 hrs on heavy use. bout 50 texts, 30 minutes of phone calls and lots of air time on xda forums(not using wifi) and playing games.

i tried all the GB roms best battery life i found was on the new darkys rom. I am an power user so battery life matters, I flashed it with nothing and deleted the rest of the useless apps i got like 10 apps i use and like. but i do like to surf the web.
for looks i liked simply galaxy 2 and purple Licious both were butter.
and for the best speed it is Continuum its battery life isnt as good as a few others.
any of the JVK or JVO are very stable and good daily drivers.
JVB based roms have a few bugs nothing to stop daily use.
All are very good hard to make a stand out best it all depends on you taste and needs.
good luck I like all the samsung roms far better then CM7 battery life seems much better on the samsung roms.

Ive flashed to cm7, di11,and many others. For me serendipity takes the cake.

im pretty sure you have to flash to stock first then load GB bootloaders since MIUI and CM use different bootloaders.
EDIT: sorry for double posting link, didnt see it above from jbo12

What ROM and kernel (if available) are you running and why?

I am just curious to what ROMs and kernels you are running and why you like it over others?

i would have to agree with this guy ^^^
SS v5 is the best rom hands down, dopest dope you've ever smoked
I get at least 40+ hours of moderate use, and only have to charge every other day.

CM7 nightlies Scary Kernel Stable because it's the fastest most up to date rom with the best battery life.

Mik 1.6, smooth and functional... no custom Kernel as of yet though.

I run a newer cm7 nightly. I used to run shift deck which is really close to stock AOSP which is what I want but it hasn't been updated in ages so I went with CM7 which does have a few bells and whistles (some call it bloat) on top of stock AOSP like ADW launcher and a few things like that but for the most part it still feels like an AOSP rom and you can very easily set it up to look and feel exactly like AOSP.
I am using the stock kernels that come with the roms now. They have overclock options and seem fine. I have used scary stable but didn't notice any difference so I don't bother any more.
I really like Sense roms as I feel they are more fluid mostly when swiping between home screens but I cannot stand that there is about a 5 minute timer on the notification light before it shuts off even if you haven't cleared the notification. I rely on that light while I am at work so I have to stick with an AOSP ROM that flashes the light indefinitely until I clear it. I can also set the light to flash orange or green depending on which notification I am receiving which I find handy for text messages which I place a larger priority over than say a Wordfeud notification while I am at work
I usually do one cycle of charge fully, wipe battery stats, discharge completely until phone shuts off then recharge fully whenever I flash a new ROM and I haven't noticed any better or worse battery based on which ROM I have used.

How's battery life on Mik 1.6???

What exactly are you waiting on? Do you mean you just haven't rooted? Because you can now Root GB Shift's by downgrading to Froyo. Check HERE and HERE. Either of those threads will get you rooted if your on GB . As for MikShifted G v1.6 by aamikam, it is an excellant Rom . You should also check out Supreme Sense V5, by strapped365. It's based off MikShifted G , with a lot more eye candy . Both of those are Smooth, Stable, and quick. I have both of those running on serveral different devices with NO issues. Still waiting on the Source Code Kernel to be able to overclock. But both of those run excellent without being overclocked ( this coming from a SPEED Junkie ) .

Couldn't agree with you more both MikShifted G and Supreme Sense V5 are great running roms and cant wait to run these roms overclocked

SupremeSense V5 with the stock/default SenseUI theme found on the Mik forums
Reason why is for SenseUI 3 w/ 3D launcher effects

I switch between mikrom 1.6 and shiftdeck 1.2.1 with x99 kernel.
i was using scarystable but the usb disk access wasn't working

Miui Rom and stock kernel that came with it.
Reason: tried something new and needed something fast and customizable

I'm not saying scary stable is bad. But for MY shift
Scary average battery temp - 136°
PershootV9 average - 101°
Big difference. That's when im actually using my phone, i multitask a lot.
Scary kernel - while playing my game online ill lose connection about once every 5 minutes
PershootV9 - never lost connection once, only like 2 or 3 lag bumps
Battery life for appears to be about equal give or take maybe an hour.

Calling All Rogers Users

What ROM/Kernel setup are you guys using that you've found good stability with?
Any suggestions?

Skyrocketeer with flashed Rogers radio. It's very stable, had some slight issues with the sms timestamps but with the help of SMStimeFIX from market it was solved. Also still looking to confirm if i obtain full 50mb/s LTE speed but until i got back to that spot where i always get it, i wont be able to confirm. It's a nice looking rom, snappy, fast, good battery life, nice emprovements

Stock rom. I've tried a few, including sky ics. Good rom but I still found stock more stable. But it depends on the user. I don't like to search as to why apps keep fcing. I just like it when I use my phone that it runs smooth. The rogers stock is good. Isn't any bloaware to slow it down. However I did get rid of the odd app and widget installed

hey i tried some roms soo far. the roms/kernel id recommend is either use sky/tpc/rocketeer. kernel wise id stay away from all kernels i mean no offence given devs work hard on kernel, but unless you rogers folks wanted a heat around camera area for everyday i know i don't use stock rogers kernel its snappy @ 1.5ghz + no lags + my heavy day to day lasts me 1 and 1/2 day with full use of wifi,bt,browser and games. just remove all the bloatware and u'll see.

Stock Rom for me, although I have started to play with Go Launcher to spice things up a little bit. Waiting for ICS my self.

Stock here as well, tried a few roms, and aside from over or under clocking, which I love, there haven't been any roms or kernels as stable so far. If someone comes up with a great way to 'clock let's hear it!
Also, anyone have a comprehensive list of bloatware on the 727R yet? That's a post I'd love to see!
Sent from my rooted SGS2 I727R using stock, until something really stable comes along

Runnin skyicecream sandwich jugglin between faux and romracer kernel cant get the romracer to deepsleep. Running faux at 1.5gz max with setcpu and its pretty stable no fc or sod. Smooth and fast.

rooted using sky ICS
tried cyanogen for a bit and liked it but sky ics just looks so nice. i get a few fcs but it doesnt bother me cause it reboots the program real fast
really good battery life on it, 15 hours at 70%

I've been on Android for over 3 years now..
Had so many different roms on my devices. This one I've used syrocketeer, was nice, smooth stable, not many issues.
Tried SkyIce Cream Sandwich rom. Was pissed off it was just a theme of ICS on 2.3.6 IMO name is very misleading, but whatever, to each his own. Was a good stable rom if you want a nice overlay of ICS, had a few issues with FC but the dev gives pretty good instructions on how to fix it.
Most of these I was running primarily until Cyanogen team came out with something stable enough to put on my phone. As I've always found CM to be the best thing you can run.
Newest build for me has been very stable - running Da_G kernel. No issues except for the call issue posted in their forums. I think that was supposed to be fixed in the latest update, however I haven't gotten around to updating. Turning GPS on seemed to work to fix the issue tho. I would never change to anything else (unless real ICS rom came out, then would only stay on that till CM9 came out with a stable enough release)
I have confirmed in most parts of Toronto where reception is decent enough I'm getting an average of 30+ mbps. Closer to downtown core upwards of 40mbps and in a few cases up to 58mbps. So LTE works great on that ROM as well.

i use Bouyancy 1.2.1 with 360 launcher doesn't change baseband smooth and snappy

SkyRocket ICS 2.9.2
faux kernal 2.6.35.14......
max clock 1.296
min clock 384
screen off max 384
screen off min 192

not one issue with ANYTHING!!!

Sky is very smooth and nice with faux kernel no problems here

TPC V3 with Da_g 0.43 kernel. No issue at all. Very stable.
Sent from my SGH-I727R using xda premium

Rooted, stock rom & kernel, ADW launcher.
I was loving Darkyy on my SGS but even though I played with a couple ROMS and kernels on the SII LTE I went back to stock. Solid, fast, and good battery life.
I did freeze and uninstall most of what I could identify as bloatware and the horrid touchwiz slowpoke. I picked up ADW EX when it was on the 10 for 0.10 sale, and like it better (landscape mode and the ability to customize the dock easily is a big bonus).

Using the Stock rom. Haven't had one issue with it and since I'm coming from a Touch pro 2 running WM 6.1 this thing is fast enough as is......For now.

Stock myself, played around with a few ROMs but ended up liking the reliability of the stock. Eagerly awaiting ICS and CM 9.

I have flashed almost all of the ROMs on here and in my opinion the snappiest one was the Quikwiz 1.0.3 and skyrocketeer was pretty quick as well. Right now im running stock though because as almost everybody said it is the most stable build for Rogers rightnow. I am trying to get the stock-ish kernel by romracer on my phone right now. If anybody has flashed that i would like to know how the battery and speed were? Thanks

Stock Rom for me, i tried Da_G's Kernel but got alot of SOD's. There were a few fixes such as deleting modules etc but none of those ever fixed it. Sadly I'm getting poor battery life on my Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE even with JuiceDefender Ultimate installed. Before JuiceDefender I was about to take the phone back, now it's just sub par battery life. As for now I'm done with messing around on flashing the phone , at least until we get our stock ICS ROM. It should be coming out soon, that's my hope.

I've flashed Sky and TPC. Both are fairly stable, but I'm not getting any where close to the battery life some of these AT&T guys are getting.
I'm a fairly heavy user—LTE on all day, but I have wifi on at work and home.
I personally don't feel that flashing a new ROM has done anything for my battery life, however it HAS improved my usability factor (both Sky and TPC have been able to grant me a sizeable performance increase).

[Q] Feedback and Question on best ROM?

Hi guys I have gone from one ROM to another all professing to be the smoothest or most stable but all have left some what of a bitter taste in my mouth. My current ROM seems to be the most stable and have all the basic modcons working AndroidHD v1.0 | ICS
So I’m on a UK I9020 and I’m like preferably ICS over GB and main important points to consider for me would be
Battery Life, Stable, and Fast,
I am a bit of a power user but the ROM don’t have to have to many mods or sparkles just need something that doesn’t reboot at least twice a day and gives me battery life for 12 hours plus with fair use of apps and internet.
Please help at the end of my tether

yeah i'm in the same spot...i have been trying some ics roms and many claim "fast & stable & rock solid & butter smooth" etc
But they dont feel that way to me...i really like ics but i think its still slowish. GB is way faster.
Currently on codenameandroid 1.2.0 with matr1x 15.5 cfs

Come on guys don't all hide now lol, need your applied knowledge. Some one must have some thing they can recommend

try AndroidMe 1.1.0 not a single issue for me ,when on others ics roms i had fcs and reboots.
battery life around 16h with 3h of 3g and 3h screen on with brightness set at 68%.

CM 9 1.1 has been stable and brutally fast, better than stock IMHO. Only thing missing is FB sync.

Only thing thats kept me from CM roms is the worry that apps wont work with them, what sort of uptime do you get?

kangy v10 or AOKP milestone 3, damn good , with Matr1x kernel.
smooth , stable , battery friendly

im using the last cm9 kang with a bare boned(no mods added) trinity kernel, not a single stutter or speed bumbs. fast, stable, and everything works.

Now I'm using CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v.5 HYBRID+Matr1x 14.5CFS, well, as far as I can tell, it is quite stable and battery is not draining so fast.
Try some roms with AOSP tags, these roms have less modifications and mods, and maybe have a better better performance.

Stock is stable, but a bit slow. but the slow problem is same in other custom roms.
I don't have the problem of battery drain.
Downloading 4.0.4 rom ported from NS4G. Hope it fix the speed problem.
Don't want to use 2.3 anymore, though 2.3 is fast and stable

I tried these custom roms -
Mv 2.1.27, 2.1.28(cm9) lots of added features, but less stable than stock
Miui - although I am a Chinese, don't like this Chinese rom.
Slow. Don't know the cause. Rom still in alpha? Or wasting CPU power on beautiful ui?
Unfamiliar ui Is another problem. Not my cup of coffee
