I haven't even put nvflash on my phone yet so no it wouldn't be that fast and I was asking personal opinion on roms not on what I can do with my time.

I can only speak for eahlesblood and cm7. Cm is stable but keyboard lag and battery meter are annoying. Eb froyo is pretty good. Im a cm addict so that makes be biased.
G2x with CM7 and trinity kernel

-_- asking an opinion on Rome are inane, different strokes for different folks... Maybe some time management books would be in your best interest ...

Thank u for ur input instead of assuming and talking down at me. With that said
I am the same way and on the mt4g I still have my wife update her cm frequently but she's on the virtuous fusion now. Anyway I love cm and really was seeing if there was any input for me to stray from it and try something new yet it seems we are still to new for choice of roms

It seems u have a ****ty Samsung to tend to. Why are u in the g2x forum.
And I just like personal opinions to quickly catch feelings towards the roms. I work 2 jobs and don't have time to just play around on my phone all day.

Try cm. Its pretty stable right now. I get good battery life with it but the Margery meter is still a little wonky. I don't get any keyboard lag at all
Edit: I meant battery not margery lol. Don't even know what margery is

faux's is not based off CM his is AOSP built from scratch it has 2.3 camera and macro shots and such are still available only issue I see with Faux's rom is battery tells the wrong battery level, be at 76% and after a reboot have 64% but thats alot of roms dont know about stock, and I can live with it. seriously best rom yet.

I believe faux's rom is more of a hybrid. He took some stuff from aosp source and some from cm source (like the kernel I believe)

yes ^^^ like the commits from the nightly its basically pure asop its a nice rom and @rich2thad yea my wife has one i def miss it it was a very good phone i loved it....g2x is def quicker tho
I was hoping to get your guys opinion on this. Should I wait at least until mid October for gingerbread, or should I say forget it and install a custom Rom now? In otherwords, do you think gingerbread will really be here soon?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
We kinda think its close. But why not try a custom rom. The flash time and return to stock time is les than 15 minutes. Now if you are trying not to void your warranty,I guess I can dig that.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
It's a really high quality refurb from Att and has 2 months of warranty left. But I doubt I'd brick it. Even if I did I'd use gtg's unbricker. Hmm... I'm still on the fence though. Need more opinions.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Well the custom roms offer some things stock doesnt yet its up to you and your needs.
Anyways now with the video recording fix using a GB rom its a nice choice. I was "stuck" on Froyo since the fps thingy on Gb roms but now that its fixed ive been runnin Infused 2.2.3 and its smooth.
There are some more rom options so you could browse and take your choice.

If you're willing to give up HDMI output and live with a few minor bugs, you can have Gingerbread now.
Also data speeds are still not fixed in GB, although one fix I tried seems to have had far better results than I expected so there is promise there. I'm asking for some confirmation of that, as I live in an area with always-crappy speeds so I can't really test it.

Yea I was going to wait, but I could not stand it anymore. I am on 2.2.2 with Entropy's kernel. The data speeds seem mostly restored, even though i used to get almost another mb usually. If you do go to Gingerbread now, I will say the perfect pair is Infused 2.2.3 (or 2.2.2) with Infusion 1.0 (overclock kernel) for heavy games users. For daily needs and internet speed, I would say again Infused 2.2.3 (or 2.2.2) with Entropy's kernel. I have not tried Serendipity, but I have heard almost nothing bad about that too.
I installed S7 a few weeks ago, expecting to only stay on it a few days as I tried a few other ROMs. I still want to fix the Hellraiser "stuck battery notifications" issue.
I've been very happy with S7 - At some point I'll be returning to CM7, but I've been so busy that I haven't had time to mess with reflashing another ROM.
UCKI5 apparently just got leaked, so I may just wait. Seems like it's close.

Hey guys i just got my infuse replaced and i have been checking and so far we have lots of Roms for this phone, i am wondering if anyone knows the best Rom for speed/smoothness with the least amount of glitches?

MIUI is by far...the smoothest snappiest ROM. Just no bluetooth. if u dont use bluetooth this is the ROM for you. Really the only 2 choices are Infused and MIUI and then there are some other mumbo-jumbo ones that half work......

Honestly, I didn't like MIUI, i thought it looked pretty childish IMO lol You should also consider Dlev Rom. Trying them all out wouldn't hurt either, everyone has their own opinion...
So far, my personel best experience has been with Serendipity VII.
MIUI...S7...CM7 have been my favorites . Running MIUI and have to say it is my number one choice.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
yeahhh ive seen a bunch of people that like miui, im gonna try them all this week to see... thanks
DLEV is my favorite. I had infused until gtg left. And miui does look a lil' kiddie. What I love about fleck is the smoothness. It blazes! And if you apply 99 tweaks and S.A.S. on top of it, it becomes insane. If you like benchmark #'s I consistently get 27500.

Personally, I'm running Infused with Entropy's kernel and a bunch of custom CPU settings. My phone is blazing fast - just no HDMI out as with all GB ROMs so far as it seems.
Everyone's gonna have their own preference. Get familiar with flashing and start playing with different ROMs. The only way you'll find your preference is by trying.
Personally for me, I prefer battery life over performance (such as HD video displays, high mem-usage games, etc) so I like Infused for that. I get roughly 26 hours on a charge with JuiceDefender and moderate usage...
Good luck!
I use quick wiz I love it. Best stable fast rom ever but I keep waiting for something amazing. But never happens. Is there one coming or one I missed. Most seem the same.

I would stick with what you have for a short while longer.
UCLA 2.3.6 update just hit, so lots of ROM's will go through wipe-only updates and new ROM's will be released.
SkyICS is the flashiest, coolest ROM IMO that still manages to be stable and quick.
RedSonja is a bit more blah (aside from cartoons) with the theme and tricks/gimmicks/addons, but looks like it was just rebuilt for UCLA 2.3.6 update. So if you have to flash something, that is the one I'd try right now.
I'm digging NexusM0D 3.0 after trying a couple of different ICS-Themed ROM's.

I'd give Skycoke a try. To be honest SkyICS and Coke are the only two I've used but I've developed a serious Coke habbit. It's clean, fast and stable.
I'm sticking with it until there's a true ICS release.

I like that one a lot also.
But I was getting random, infrequent force closes. Mostly on superuser.
Anything Seanzcreams dev's is going to be pretty good. But he's not around for a few weeks I think. So no new updates for awhile.

Sean will be back in April after the tour w chimaira. Skyics is very stable and clean though.
I really liked sky ics, and nexus mod 2.0. Tpc is really good as well but the dev moved on so no updates. If you like eye candy try one of the sky versions or nexus mod.

what Rom do you guys recommend if i am looking for stability, battery life and lots of customization (tweaking wise not graphics wise)...
i am using sky ics 7.4 speed... its very flashy and has lots of graphics stuff i dont really need but its draining my battery like crazy. i can barely go 10 hours without charging.
Try using the stock skyice. I am using this version and the battery life is awesome. Best batter life I have had with any android phone.

yeah i am running speed at the moment ...going to downgrade to stock.
the problem i am having is that my phone never goes to sleep...! i am trying to find what causes the wake lock...with the screen off is still draings batter like crazy...
i have my eyes on the call recorder...could that be the culprit?
Idk...its gotta be some app that you downloaded though...cant be a system app since those come on the rom and mine is fine.

haha i just bought it in the marketplace ..there goes my 2 euros haha
i just uninstalled a buch of stuff and reset battery stats. Looks like now the device is actually going to deep sleep like its supposed to.
if the problem comes back i will post logs here!
thx for the help.
2 much to Choose
I like the stability of SkyIce 7.4 Lots of eye candy. Right now using StokMod-2-UCLA3, hoping that ICS will be released soon. I Wipe about once a week just for the variety. Only Bricked the SkyRocket i727 once before the 30 days was up.
Wish I would have waited for the note.
Personally I prefer the Tmob roms. The ones here feel pretty much all the same to me too imo. There are some pretty interesting ones over there like Tuesday, Juggs and ParadoxII. Really nice themes and features too. You just need to flash our kernel or else your rotation is all outta wack. I find there is more action over there. Although the roms we do have might be less original they are pretty rock solid.(props to our devs) The only downside to the Tmob is you lose the LTE icon (still getting the speeds just no icon changing) which I couldnt care less
Plus they got a few devs working to make it better
Hoping someone can port it over to p999 soon once they stabilize their build. Maybe our wait is almost over.
(Don't go spam their dev thread)

I don't think it is going to be much help to the P999 until source code is released.

Reports from the p660 and p990 forums are that the ics leaks are performing quite well, possibly better than gb. Great battery life and responsiveness.

Couldn't agree more. The awesome work devs did in tweaking CM7 has made this device very bearable until an upgrade at the end of the year.

i wouldnt hold my breath if i were you
i agree too, CM7 is just awesome for me. i actually went back to the new baseband and put the stock 2.3.4 back on mine and the battery life dropped, getting ready to downgrade once again and go back to the CM7 nightlies (i need bluetooth in my car)

I find that bluetooth (media) works better on CM7 than it does on stock... It stutters a lot on stock and takes forever to connect.
it really doesnt matter at this point, nothing beats project butter, NOTHING!!!!!
If i have to sacrifice the smoothness from hacked JB to have a fully functional ICS, then so be it.....it is more important to have that eye candy than functions that i dont even use lol.

to be honest, the glitches presented in current JB builds arent that bad, battery drain, no camera, no chrome (ok this is bad), the only one i even care about is chrome, which is quite important to me actually.
But other than chrome, everything else is pretty much functional to me, sure they arent perfect but it sure is better than ics!
