I love the infused roms!!!! (Thanks GtG) I was just curious what else is out there... I did try Bionix Infinity and loved the visuals of it but to me it was more buggy than Infused. What do you guys recommend or do I have the best of the best currently.
Thanks for reading
I think infused is probably the best right now.

I really liked the battery life in Serendipity VII.
Right now my Infuse has CM7 on it, which is experimental but usable as long as you're willing to accept its limitations, and has some nice features (such as flexible theming) not present in Samsung-derived ROMs. Which reminds me, I need to sync the repo and rebuild...
I really like DlevROM V5.0 , Its Fast!!!
It's my 3rd day on MIUI.. and i'm loving it.
I had Infused before this, and that was good too, but I like MIUI more. Specially the music controls.
I just wish one of these ROMs would have 4-digit pin without having to press OK.
Isn't gtg jumping ship though?

Yes. This doesn't mean Infused is not going to be available. It's still gonna be good for when you want to switch to something more reliable while people fix all the first bugs on their ROMs based on the official GB ROM.

Just looking for a public opinion on this idea. What if the major devs that we all know and love teamed up? The thought to me makes me wetter than a water buffalo. I wonder what the rom capabilitys would be like? Would it solve this pandemic sweeping the xda community known as "flash addict"? Are there devs willing to team up? whats your ideas?

devs colaborate all the time. the reason for so many roms is that different users have differnt wants and needs that conflict and different devs have different ideal on how it should be done.
flash addiction will not be solved by a better rom.
it is imposible to satisfy everyone. you can combine all the popular apps and launchers into one rom but if a user wants light weight that will not meet that users criteria.
that said there have also been teams that do very good work. team komin did amazing work on andromeda. the rom and kernel were both very good. unforunately they are sticking to the i9010 sources and have fallen behind in os version. i wish they would do an alternate rom based on i9000 sources, so we could get gingerbread at that quality.
Agree with above. A big reason devs make roms is for themselves. They add the features they want as well as accepting input from the community.

I'll take a look, I don't own this phone but a friend has it running stock and told me he wanted a new phone and that this one was a POS, I told him the hardware is great but Samsung'd coding is just amazingly terrible, so I've been looking for a good ROM to flash for him, but since I don't have the phone was going to just rock CM7 since you can't go wrong.
Any suggestions on a stable/fast ROM? It will be hard to test these for daily use since I don't own the device.

To save yourself the hassle of looking all over this forum for tweaks and stuff, you should probably just stick to ICBINB.7.
Bionix Frost would require you to look for all those tweaks!
Both are just as good though, imo.

RE: Best ROM
True enough, they are all great! but for a noob who flashed all the roms the least buggiest so far is SKY ICS--- 4.2D-10 for me anyways.
Again there are different flavors to choose from and it also depends on what you use on your phone. Some bugs may show up days later.

All these guys are right cause there really is no right or wrong answer to your question. When it comes to custom roms its all about personal preference. What someone else really loves you may find out you don't like. So my advice is become a flashaholic like most of us here are and start flashing until you find that perfect custom rom that fits your needs and wants. Just remember to make a backup of your current rom before you start flashing anything that way you can always go back to what you have now. Oh and just so you will know design gears is about to release a new ics leak for the skyrocket soon according to his twitter account so you may want to wait and see what that is all about and the I'm sure plenty of custom roms will be based off of it soon as well... happy flashing...

It would probably be better to be more specific. A better question would be "which are roms are the most stable" or "which roms are the fastest" or maybe "Which rom has the most features?"
I personally am also trying to decide which rom to go with. I have a friend who owns a Skyrocket and he wants me to root the phone then flash a custom rom, so I'm looking into this. I think I'll probably flash Nexus Mod just because it looks like AOSP. Like many others, it has carrier IQ disabled and has been debloated.

+1 to sky ics for stability (iv flashed the aosp apps patch) it was giving me fc's on other roms but none on this one
nexusmod ics was good but the rom seems to start facing issues after a week of use (might be user error but others were also experiencing this) and also the rom has no further development as MOD has been bricked and has also moved to cm9.
AOKP - great rom that has just surfaced with some solid devs at work still has a few minor issues but this one will become a gem
cm9 - same as above, great dev support but it still has a few minor kinks to be worked out
The above post is right especially about cm and aokp
CM9 Skyrocket
The newish Slim ICS ROM is pretty good too. Gives you some AOSP apps and seems pretty stable and super snappy for me so far. But as others have said, just look at some of the ones with higher traffic and more recent posts and see what you like. Embryo is a nice one i you want a more stock exoerience. Dev is super responsive too. With the new leak and impending (hopefully) official release, they'll all be rebased anyway. TiBu Pro and nandroid are your friends.

My wife has been running Fasty 2.4 for several months. It has started messing up and I will do a master reset tonight. I'm on a VZW phone so my attention to her Captivate and the options are limited. Looking for recommendations from you pros out there.
Need something VERY stable, relatively fast. Suggestions?
I was worried and put off flashing an ICS rom for a long time. Today they're working very well. I'd suggest Doc's, or Simply AOKP, or Slim ICS. All seem fairly clean and fast. Doc's will have the most preinstalled goodies, the others you can load up on your own with whatever apps you prefer.
SlimISC - the best. Slim + devil kernel - wonderful

The best ROM is the one that works right for you and your phone. Try a few on for size and make your decision.
Do not mean to be disrespectful its a great rom and I have been using it for many months... I'm just asking if there are any stable roms like Valhalla final but ICS and not gingerbread.
if its not too hard please post ur recommendations and explain what's good about that rom.
Thanx a bunch.

I would recommend trying them out start with cm9 for a few days. I love aokp personally with hefe kernel, there are so many little options to make the phone feel like it's yours. They all have little twists to them and the older more updated ones are more stable. If you haven't felt ics yet your in for a treat.

I like barebones,its completely debloated and has the look and feel of stock gingerbread

Nothing ICS that is as bug free as Valhalla final or black edition. The ICS roms are definitely all good enough for daily drivers, but the battery life is inconsistent to say the least and your going to have issues with voodoo sound still being partiality busted if that matters to you. I flash the new CM9 builds and ROM's based off of them when they come out to look for bugs and generally see first hand how the development is progressing but still using Valhalla black as a daily driver for the reasons I mentioned previously
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Since you are in GB and Valhalla is a stock-ish ROM, then I suggest Barebone or if you want some more theme and custonization then go for Valhalla Black either Raver or FB with Anton's Basic with a Twist kernel.
My pick is FB's Valhalla Black, but Barebone is awesome too. I'm just not a fan of stock.
ICS ROMs are all good. I use CM9 and AOKP, they all have bugs and some issues. Development is still ongoing. Yet, once you try it, it would be hard going back to a GB ROM.
the best rom is the one you feel is the best.. Seriously. Its not a omg this is the best rom ever made we all do different things different flavors .

This is BEST Answer. I know BUT I want to know another PROFESSIONAL OPINION as a beginer.
Some of the people that have responded are the developers, and all of the people have tried many (if not all) of the ROMs. In my humble opinion, that is as "professional" as it gets. The best advice here is to try them out and see which, if any, you personally feel drawn towards. You can always go back to the one you like best. Being a beginner can be scary, but read, read, read before you do anything, make backups, and follow the directions. It is very easy once you get into it.
Good luck! Oh, I like the AOKP best, so far, but I haven't tried Raver's ICS ROM yet. That's next on my list.

basically, raver is saying that everyone has their own opinion on what is the best rom. each person wants different things. you can't just ask people which is better. you just have to try out each and decide for yourself. so in other words, don't be lazy by asking people, check em out yourself.

"No" was simply the answer to the ops question. Unless he enjoys random reboots, sub-par battery life and lack of functionality then he should wait for a "final" ICS rom. Last time I checked there wasn't one.
