[Q] custom Android 2.3 rom for Vibrant - General Questions and Answers

Hi there,i have installed bionix v 1.3.1 on my vibrant,and it looks and feels quite good,but since it was based on android 2.2,i started to search for other custom rom with android 2.3,and i found Cyanogenmod 7 RC1,i have flashed it,used for while,and honestly found it not as good as bionix v 1.3.1,because of poor battery life,weak gps performance,and i really missed swype and touchwiz,so my question is,can you guys recommend me some other roms(stable if possible,and with swype and touchwiz)based on Android 2.3,for vibrant.
Thanks a lot for reading,any advice will be great.

Noob to O3D needing help please

Hi all. I've got my O3D coming tomorrow and want to root it and install a different rom but not sure what to go for. I've had a look around and I'm interested in the ThiaiZO3D rom along with the v6 supercharger. I've currently got a hannspree hannspad tablet which I've modded with CWM and custom rom so I'm familiar with android and Modding. My current phone at the moment is the Nokia N900 which I've also modded. Ive also had a play with my mate O3D and loved it which is the reason i bought one. Here's a few questions I would like answering please.
1) what rom is best in terms of reliability, fast and responsive?
2) will installing the tegra software work fine with a custom rom like ThiaiZO3D for example?
3) is the camera mod in the development section worth installing, also is it installed via CWM?
That's all for now.
Thank you very much. Ashley.
I think the Thiai Rom is currently good choise but.i try to test king 3d. He release v2.2 this week and i think its a great alternately to Thiai Rom.
Sorry for bad English

1) Think ThiaiZ with V6 is the way to go. If you want to have new kernel go for Koala or King. But for me it seems ThiaiZ stock runs smoother.
2) Sorry didn't try
3) Yes and yes. Look the amazing comparison pics in its thread.
I just installed ThiaiZ yesterday and also used the v6 script but cant actually notice any difference. Swiping between screens has a little 'judder' as it scrolls, I haven't actually tried any games but overall performance seems the same.
I haven't had the phone crash yet like I did on the stock ROM; but time will tell.
seems like thaiz rom, is one of the most stable one in this forum since it is stock based. But im not upgrading to 1.5.3 anytime soon, cuz i love my stock browser too much . i think it gets the job done, simple and easy to use. might upgrade if thaiz decided to put the browser in again

[Q] Need Opinions

Ok Guys.......here comes a Noob question....
To start off with I am familiar with rooting & flashing my Epic 4G.
But my wife has an Evo Shift & I'm not familiar with the ROM's out for the Shift.
Since the GB update rolled out her phone has been lacking & a little buggy.
She complained about the launcher redrawing, checked it & she is almost out of memory (internal) with very few apps installed.
My question is: I'm looking for your opinions on a good stable ROM with the bloat removed to free up space. She liked the phone better with Froyo so that could be an option.
Thanks in advance.
You could try Supreme sense 8.0 its a hybrid rom of 2.1 and 3.0 sense its very smooth and stable ive been running it for a month now no random reboots or nothing only bloatware is sprint hotspot and thats all.
this article might help install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201233
Closes to froyo is the mikshift rom expect its gingerbread and from what i've read has no problems and is closes to stock
She's probably used to Sense and would complain but if you really want to free up memory then I'd suggest an AOSP ROM like CM7. Or she might like MIUI.

If you want something that is very close to stock. You can try MikShift v1.1, it's Froyo 2.2 . Or if you prefer 2.3 Gingerbread, MikShifted G v1.76. Both are Stable, Smooth, and very quick. Even on the stock Kernel, without Overclocking.
supreme sense 8 or cm7 nightly.

Overcome 7 v4.0.0 Edition Gingerbread 2.3.3 ROM

Hi guys, I would like to share my experience on rooting and flashing the custom firmware on my P1000.
Initially, my P1000 was preloaded with froyo 2.2.
I flashed my P1000 to the gingerbread 2.3.3 and subsequently upgraded to v2.3.5.
The major difference between 2.3.3 & 2.3.5 is the lock in screen. 2.3.5 no longer have the fixed slider at the lockin screen, to unlock, just touch anywhere of the screen and you will see 2 circle lines, and then slide out of the 2nd circle will do.
A few days ago, I degraded my P1000 back to 2.3.3 and flashed with Overcome 7 v4.0.0 edition rom.
It is working extremely fine and fast, still monitoring it, but so far face no problem at all.
Thanks guys for the overcome 7 rom. Fantastic.
I am looking ahead at Honeycomb custom rom for P1000.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
OVERCOME 4.0 is great. But I think CM7 or MIUI are also fast and fine, with more freedom. You should lookong ahead at ICS, personally I think the Honeycomb custom rom is meaningless now.
Reports are allways good.....
But you have used the wrong thread group. Please use this thread and report it there.
Because this thread group is only for apps and themes, NOT for roms. Thank you
