I'm tired of reading 60+ pages on each kernel and rom thread. What combo of rom and kernel seems to be the best? I know everyone is different but looking for the majority..
I using whats in my sig and couldn't be happier. Great performance and decent battery life.

It really depends on what kind of performance (battery life, speed, etc.) you're after, versus what user experience you're after (heavy theming capability, Samsung's default TouchWiz interface versus something more AOSP-based).
I personally use the Mesmerize port of MIUI with the FROIS 2 theme. Because that's AOSP-based, it's REALLY fast, and I don't even think I've had my Voodoo lagfix enabled for a while. It scans my SD card in seconds, whereas on a TouchWiz rom it takes close to a minute.
On the other hand, there are things broken with the AOSP ROMs. If you're the kind of phone user who can live without those things, AOSP-based ROMs can be VERY fast, and VERY pretty.
TouchWiz tend not to be as fast on the whole (YMMV), but they should pretty be rock-solid stable, and still over some fun customizations and themes.
without specific examples, does that at least give you a better idea of which ROM you should check out?
I am really looking for stability and battery life. With the company email always polling and working in a building that has a worse signal than an underground bunker my battery dies in under 8 hours. Right now I am rooted with a stock EC10 voodoo kernel. My big problem now is after being in an area that I lost signal, none of my texts went through. I could get them but not send. A reboot fixed it but dont want it to happen again.
I have been looking at the OTB kernel and JT's voodoo. For a ROM I have been looking at PnP but with the recent issues I have been waiting for the update. The H57 rom seems promising though.
Heinz is good.
For ROMs and burgers. Seriously though it is a great ROM. I couldn't go back to stock and be happy after having this.

Now the 5/7 version of H57 has the kernel included with the zip? So, wipe the phone and install zip from sd and should be good? If so, is it a voodoo kernel? I looked through all 25 pages and didnt see if it was.

It's the OTB-Reloaded version 1.3 - yes it's voodoo
Sweet.. Got it Dl'd and going to flash soon.
Well got it flashed and seems to be working awesome. Only problems i have found is that the camera will freeze up and have to reboot. Changed the scheduler to CFQ and havent tried again. The first thing I noticed that I dont like is that the silent button on the pull down is not there. It has mobile data. I use the silent alot at work and wish it was still there.
I'm not sure about other roms, but with Heinz 57, there are a handful of lockscreen styles that have the ability to silence the phone (turn on/off silence mode). For example I know the Rotary and AOSP unlock screens allow this.
It took a little getting used to, but I'm liking not having to unlock my phone to silence it.
So I got EE19 PnP going on my device and I'm just wondering which Kernel is compatible with this Rom. Will an EC10 Kernel still work with it or do I need to wait for a Kernel built off of EE19?
I've been running the OTB v1.6 without issue. I would think the ec10 kernels would work but I can say that OTB v 1.5 and v 1.6 work fine on the new update.
Tap-a-Talked from my Mesmerize
OK thanks, if you've seen no issue I'll give that one a shot as well.
Under "About Phone" is the kernal version still 2.6.32.9 on the ee19 update? If it is I would imagine you could use any kernal compatible with EC10. If I'm wrong, someone will correct me!
Otb v1.6 works great for me as well. No complications.

@Scarmon I'm running the same EE19 PnP and OTB 1.6, froze every time until i changed juicedefender's cpu setting back to 100-400-1000 (it was default 100-1000-1500) now seems much more stable, but I'm getting some intermittent random reboots, otherwise everything seems cool... But intermittent random reboots suck! All I want is a reasonably stable setup, decent battery life, and extra options on the power menu (reboot, download, recovery etc). Is there a different setup that would work better for me? Like PBJT kernel + EE19? I appreciate any help!

edit: and the thing that started all this was that my mez was putting itself into airplane mode pretty regularly, rebooted, still did it, flushed cache, still did it, battery pull and wait, still did it, and I read up and the consensus seems to be flash ODIN stock, and I noticed that EE19 was out, so I said "well *#*$ it, if I'm using ODIN I might as well flash a custom ROM as well (I was running jt's EC10 kernel, which performed swell) if I'm going to mess with my phone.... Again, any help is greatly appreciated.. I hope I did enough reading before posting so I don't get lit up for being newbish.
Hey. So are using the voltage control app with OTB? If not that may be why the hangups. As for another kernel. It really depends on what your after. I personally loved the OTB kernel. I was always after better performance and decent battery life and that kernel was great. Now pbjt has its perks as well. But its not overclockable and such like OTB. Let me know if ya have voltage control and such and we can figure out what's causin the reboots for tthe most part. Also. How often is it rebooting

Rebooting once an hour, done it two times now? Just disabled voodoo, wiped cache/settings 3x and reflashed OTB1.6, installed voltage control. I think I'll keep voodoo off for now as I seem to be flashing quite often lately. And I have no idea what to do now. All these numbers... I don't really want it overclocked, it's always been more than fast enough for anything I've needed it to do... I'm more concerned with stability than performance. Any suggestions for settings for VC? Thanks again!
PS Am I a moron for buying juicedefender ultimate? It seems to have helped my battery life significantly since I installed it. I've disabled its CPU governer controls assuming that VC has more options and control. Is this correct?

I would start by disabling JD and see how it reacts from there. I had a lot of issues using JD and it completely jacking up both data and phone signals. It serves its purpose but you can do most of what it does manually and avoid the extra headaches it gives you.

Also OTB 1.6 didn't work for a lot of people. May try finding an older, more stable version if that's what you want to use. I know for me I stayed with 1.3 because it worked the best on my phone.
Yeah. Or if your not into overclocking. May try something like PBJT. As its a stock clock and undervolted for battery and you wouldn't have to mess with voltage control.

Well, all seems relatively stable now... But I can't see my device in the market! Is that standard with a custom rom? Is there any way to reassociate my device with market with a custom rom? I ran a custom kernel for months and did not have this problem... But I don't know if it's worth going back to stock. I like the custom features!
Try clearing the data under settings>applications>manage apps>all>market. See if it fixes it

Personally, and I have tried many of the Rom's, I ended up using the Debloated Ginger Bread Leak EP1F and Loaded the EE4 Radios from Kejar31 and here is why. On Froyo, which is what your phone will come with, the battery did not last that long. I loaded the EP1F G/B leak and noticed a huge difference. I tried the latest leak EP1H but noticed a few issues so I went back to EP1F. I was having an issue with 4G and running Barnicle as well as other issues on EP1H but since I went back and loaded the EE4 Radios things have been great.... Once you do you can download Launcher Pro from the market and rootexplorer and tweek anything else you need to tweek.
Hope it helps.
If you liked Evil Fascination, then the choice is obvious: Eclipse, which is Nitro's ROM for this phone and is basically EF+ for the Charge. Just had a big update today, too:

And FYI, the last poster's claims about Froyo battery life are just wrong. It's the kernel that really determines your battery life, and as for that, just like on the Fascinate, your best bet for great battery life is imnuts' undervolted PeanutButta Jelly Time:

Read the 1st word I wrote (Personally) Don't tell me I am wrong. I stated my experience and there is no way I am wrong. Also for your info, many people stated they are having better battery life on Ginger Bread then they did on Froyo. If you disagree you have your right to state your opinion but don't state I was wrong based on my experience. I have tried PB&J and tried both A/B and Gummy and I have not experienced as good battery life as I have on Ginger Bread.

Moving to General
I just rooted a couple days ago. I went with imnuts Voodoo Lagfix Kernel and also his EE4 Debloated v4.2.1. Coming from the HTC world this is all a little new to me. The #1 reason i rooted was for tethering(I'll take my chances with Big Red) so I know that it doesnt matter which ROM I use for that. But I also want to take advantage of possibly having better battery life and if its possible, increasing my 4g signal. Im in the charge and drain battery process of battery calibration now so i know that should help. But what about the 4g signal? Ive read that gummychared may help that, but is that claim substantiated? One thing is that I DO NOT want to sacrifice stability. I really dont care much about theming or customization, Im actually satisfied with LauncherPro, it customizes all I need. So I guess the question is, which ROM offers the best functionality rather than customization?
I don't think a rom effects signal strength.. Thats more of the radio.. I could be wrong tho.. Alot of people go to humble cus it has great battery life after calibration.. Go with the EE4 edition because its froyo and more stable.. You will need to recalibrate your battery again after you flash tho...... ALSOOOO post questions in general
Sent from the mind-controlled device of @Rsqweezy
just my two cents but i would stay on stock if you want stability since no custom rom is "perfect" (not saying stock is either).
that being said, i've been using gummy for a while and haven't had any major issues. yea, i've had a few random reboots (once every few days) but other than that its great and everything just works.
ahh. sorry. can a mod please move this to general?
I would go Eclipse or Humble if you want more of a stock/non-customized experience.
Sent from my Droid Charge running GummyFroyo 1.9.1
eclipse 1.3.1 is the best.
Battery life is 99% dependent on your kernel -- the ROM really doesn't matter at all. And you'll get the best battery life with imnuts' non-overlock PBJ kernel.
Anyways, as far as ROM goes, I'd also recommend Eclipse. Definitely the best ROM if you want to just flash it and be done.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
I'm like you, that my first priority is stability and useability. I started on WM then was in iOS for awhile, and now to Android. As much as I can't stand a lot of the draconian pieces of Apple, I will give them a lot of credit for putting together something that is consistent, seamless and just seems to work.
I've been lukewarm on Eclipse there's some things missing that I need to either repair or go back to Humble for (Namely missing the bluetooth voice dial functionality). I've also experienced some odd anomalies with Eclipse that I didn't see with Humble. I'm curious to try out one of the Gingerbread ROMs- mainly to see if the updated radios make a big difference or not (signal strength=>Battery life). I've also just been waiting on updates to Humble etc too. Haven't tried Gummy yet, and with either Humble or Eclipse I've experienced zero reboots.
As far as battery life goes, I've found that the biggest difference is where you're at (Kernel too)...meaning that when I'm at home or work and on wifi, I get reasonable battery life...if I'm commuting, or out downtown it starts plummeting...I tend to leave 4G on just for convenience...3G seems to be a bit better on battery life, but more often than not I end up on a call and need to look something up and end up turning 4G back on anyway. This is as you've noticed that when Wifi is enabled the cellular data goes off, and wifi is a much lower drain on battery than cellular data.
Check out "Setting Profiles" it's a pretty good app that lets you define profiles for location, time of day etc to control radios etc. If you set location based on GPS that can kill battery, but you can also define location by WiFi SSID which works like a charm. This way when I get home I can crank ringer volume etc, but when at work it's on silent etc. I've noticed minimal if any impact to the battery because of it too.
Thanks for that reply. I think I'm leaning more towards Humble. From what I've read it seems like the simplest, just put it on and leave it alone, type of ROM out there. I wasn't too worried about the look of it as I use Launcherpro but I just also read that Launcherpro might be a bit of a battery drain. So I think I'll load Humble up and see how I like it.
I really liked Humble. I'm running Eclipse right now, because I really liked the color scheme and feel of the theme. Functionally, I think they're both up to par (as was gummy).
I feel like I got better battery with Humble, but I'm not sure. I know its dependent on the kernel, but I also don't know if the packaged kernel was undervolted to make a difference. I just installed pbj oc on my phone today (was running the non oc version before) and am going to see if undervolting makes a tangible difference in battery life. It could just be that the phone has lost that "new feeling" or that Humble was advertised as having great battery life that skewed my perception.
Humble is awesome. It's kind of a bland, non customizable experience with great stability. Never once had any problems with Humble. If you're just looking to have a phone that "works" then I would suggest Humble, don't get it if you like to install themes or do other such things. What you see is what you get.
Eclipse on the other hand is more for customization(like gummycharged with all its themes). It's running a modified TW4 and it looks great, I LOVE all the Galaxy S2 widgets Nitro included in this ROM. That's the only reason I flashed it over humble. It's already got a great looking Honeycomb theme and soon there's going to be a red/black theme. There is only 1 real problem with Eclipse and that's the fact that 'clearing RAM' through your Task Manager can cause TWLauncher(TouchWiz) to close and force restart, basically freezing your phone for a good 15 seconds. It happens alot, I just kicked my habit of clearing RAM since apparently it does that by itself.
So the choice is yours, a bland non customizable ROM with great stability = Humble. An awesome looking ROM with tons of customizations and features = Eclipse
It would be doing a disservice both to the OP and to kejar and teamgummy to not point out that Humble is built off of GC.
They're all solid experiences.
I haven't had to tweak ... anything... really in gummy charged, it's clean and functional, the themes are a nice addition but I use the default theme anyway.
Ok, ive been doing some research and it looks like eagals blood is prob the rom for me. I was wondering if i could get some advice on this, i am currently unrooted so im stock , this phone is killing me when it comes to battery life, the stability is so so, but my real problem is battery life i charge my fone about 3 times a day. I am a crazy heavy user, fb, texting about 200-400 message a day, phone calls every now and then, games (words with friends), and just random internet stuff. so my phone is like my life! My friend has a samsung captivate and he can go 12-14 of heavy usage prob not as much as me but he doesnt have it charging all the time like me. I was wondering what rom i should use to achieve great battery life and not lose out on stabilty or speed, look doesnt matter bc i use UTO kitchen.
Are you looking for an Android 2.3.3 or 2.3.5 ROM?

Hey man if you want a 2.3.3 rom that is stock the best is Xboarders stock tweeked rom it is super stable and everything works and the battery life is great. I use that ROM myself when I am in a stock mood. You hit it on the head with eaglesblood it is the best rom out there. I use the 1.08 verion it is based off GB 2.3.5 it is a mix a cm7 and EB goodness. The battery life is also excellent on it but you will not have A2DP (thats BT stero music) And you cant flash the stock froyo LG camera and there are APN issues that A hard reboot fixes every time. All of the problems I just mentioned are not specific to EB they are however specific to GB 2.3.5 for the g2x. It has something to do with Nivdia not relesing something drivers or sorce I dont know what exactly but thats why. You have to make a choice. I hope this helps you. Oh I alklmost forgot I am a heavy user like you except not text mssgs or phone calls but net data data data I had to change my plan to the 10 gig plan 5 was not enough. So what I did was I got the extended battery for the O2x it fits perfdectly and it was only $30. Before that I had 2 stock batterys with an external charger that worked ok too but I hated changing the battery half way through the day you should look into that. Good luck man.

i dont mind i want something stable, fast and great battery life...what does A2DP mean...im going to try EB 1.07 bc i hear no1 has problems with that...
A2DP is Stereo Bluetooth Audio... That's only important if you listen to music using a Stereo Bluetooth Headset.
For battery life, I'd recommend a CM7 based ROM, with either a stock, or undervolted kernel, such as faux123.

I agree with FatalityBoyZahy,
I did see a battery life increase after installing CM7, but the most dramatic change in battery life came after installing faux's 0.4.1 undervolted kernel.
And no the speed and stability don't drop, at least not with faux's kernel.
I would imagine that a 2.3.3 stock GB based rom such as Xboarder's tweaked or EB 2.3.3 plus faux's stock GB kernel would produce the best battery life, as I remember experiencing a huge jump in battery life from CM7 to stock GB.
However, I feel like besides the great battery life, the stock GB roms are ****ty compared to CM7 in terms off features and stability.
For example you can't do Netflix or gtalk video on stock GB.
Also I didn't experience this, but some users experience reboots and other such nonsense on stock GB.
So in Summary:
- stock 2.3.3 based rom (EB 2.3.3 is your best bet here in my opinion) + faux kernel = best battery life
- cm7 based rom (EB 2.3.5 or latest CM7 nightly) + faux kernel = best choice for both great battery life and better stability/features
Hope this helps!

No. The only risk is that you might run into stability issues, but using morfic's UV11 it isn't an issue.
Undervolt, use SetCPU profiles, keep wifi/gps off when you're not using them, and keep your display brightness low. That will net you the best battery life.

Looks like the CM version of the kernel is preferred by some in that thread (has to do with the battery driver).
Question: In terms of flashing the kernel, should I flash the ROM first and then the kernel? Or the other way around? (Or does it not matter?)

Always ROM then kernel.
And I prefer the CM version of faux's kernel as well. Supposedly the DS version has better battery life but I've never been able to notice because I'm always busy pulling my hair out over the jumpy and wildly inaccurate readings.
