I think KANGY11 is the best. I've tried many but that one beats everthing. Try it with Glados 2.9 and you will have a excellent batterylife!

for me Apex by Bigxie is Da Bomb

CyberGRv7 ICS Rom is MINT!!

I'd say CyberGR's v7 as well, have it on my own nexus, works like a charm
15½ hours on battery , still 74% battery left.

I'm agree. I use CyberGR V7. It's a great ROM. I've tested some another, but I have great battery/perf/functions with CyberGR.

I really like CyberGR v7. Has been pretty stable (I have not experienced any reboots or FCs), really fast and good battery life.

Have you upgraded to Apex 1.0.2 yet? I tried, but after flashing my wifi worked great but 3G would not connect.

It's hard to say "this ROM is best!" for anyone, it depends what your looking for in a ROM. If battery life is your main concern, I'd second CyberGR v7.
Performance? Personally I like Codename Android with matr1x kernel (mainly because of 1.46Ghz OC.)

Bugless petes for best of everything!

Damn. Figured out what happened here. I checked my APN. Set it and it works great now.

I'd give my vote to CyanogenMod 9 (v3.4 atm). Get it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399035. I used to use MIUI but switched to CM when ICS came out and have still not found a reason to search any further.

I've gone from CyberGR v7 to Oodie's MIUI and now on nuhetri v2.3.0.
I think MIUI is still a bit laggy, but it's coming through fast.
Nuhetri is working pretty good for me. A would still need to check battery life on it, but it's pretty fast!

Nuhetri or cna v1.4.0 ! I have cna atm with air kernel 3.3 overclocked to 1400mhz. soooo smooth! And batterylife is pretty good

IMM26 BY evilisto is best.

Which rom are you talking about?
The best rom so far is cybergr with air kernel. Great battery and no lag

Hard to say which ROM is the best because they all have their pluses and minuses. Same can be said for kernels; each kernel will perform differently according to which ROM you choose. I'd suggest reading through the ROM ops and selecting the one you like based on features and theme. Once you've found a ROM you like, flash several different kernels to find one that is most compatible (also doesn't hurt to read kernel ops as well for feature details). This process, although a little more time consuming, will likely give you better results than relying on the objective opinion of others. Also, bedalas compiled some awesome reference guides on on room and kernel performance that's a must read for anyone looking to get the most out of their device.
You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes

Fastest ROM? (i.e. = least laggy)

i would like to know the infuse community's thoughts on what the fastest ROM is for our device. which ROM do you think is the fastest and smoothest and least laggy? Post away!

For me its the 7/23 jb cm10 that you cant get anymore... its the project butter one.

That was the fastest indeed thanks to project butter, but the lags people were experiencing (including myself) would not make it an option as I believe the OP is looking for both speed & stability.
From what I have read I would suggest Emancipation (GB) or uni-yuma-porn (ICS).

I'd say Entropy's latest build of CM9 by far has the most stable kernel as of right now. Amazing battery life as well, everything just works.
Another great option is Emancipation(My Fav)/Ethereal/Aeon for gingerbread.
I wouldn't go for JellyBean right now if your looking for stability. Still in alpha but there are a lot of amazing dev's working on it right now and should be the best rom in a few months.

You could use any gingerbread rom with Zen core a over clocked or try AOKP

Not worth waiting for kernel 3?

CM9 still has quite a few outstanding bugs and I wouldn't recommend it for daily use. (been there, done that).
If you're looking for a non-sense rom that works, try CM7 or derivatives like Reaper.
I'm using a CM10 derivative right now called Andromadus, which is Jelly Bean based and it works 100% except for the front camera and a few graphical glitches (that have a workaround).
CM10 is miles and miles beyond CM7 or ICS in terms of performance on our phone, so I would suggest you try the latest test build if you're feeling adventurous. You won't regret it.

Agreed. I've been using the latest 24-2 build with 80n Kernel. Have had battery issues with 80n, but I've enjoyed the experience till date. The battery issues will surely be sorted out soon.

[Q] OPINION: Best ICS Rom for TF700T?

So I'm hesitant to update to JB (waiting for the official release, lovingly tweaked by our community) so I'm sticking with ICS for the time being. On my Transformer Prime I was running AndroWook and loved it, but no such rom for the Infinity.
So, in your valued opinion, what would you say is the best ICS rom and why?

There sorta is only one, Zeusrom.
We're all waiting on ASUS to release JB so we can get CM10 and AOKP going.

Well, you've still got Maniacs ROM, 9.4.5.26 with Tweaks, and a couple others that are stock with a few perks. Any thoughts on those?

You are sort of answering your own question... Maniacs hasn't seen an update in awhile, the others are stock with a couple perks. Zeus is close to what Androwook offered, though definitely not as heavily modified due to the slower pre-JB development growth of the Infinity community.

[Q] IS CM stable worth to install?

Hi there mates,
I finally decided to dump the stock ROM and give it a try on custom one.
After reading a bit i think i'm starting to like Cyanogen, but since i want a good stable ROM i appreciated some opinions form anyone who is using it.
1st and really important: my stock ROM does not have any of the know issues (deep sleep probs, random reboots, battery drains etc...) so anyone know if CM 9.x stable have any of this issues?
2nd does everything work? In the CM forums i found no one complaining with "loosing" functionality's but i would like to ear from anyone that uses this on a daily basis. (i found a lot of people complaining with encryption problem and bad flashing but not about Wifi radio, camera, etc...)
3rd: Is this the best choice to use on a daily basis? Or there is a better/more stable/more fluid Rom?
Thanks to all.

Most of the CM 10.x ROMs are pretty stable and usable. I am a fan of the KatKiss ROMs. 4.2.2 has the best functionality, but the 4.3 variant is not bad. The only thng that does not work for me is camera on Skype.

+1 for KatKiss #226

Thks for the info but now im confused...
You mentioned that Skype cant use the front cam. Is that on CM stable roms or the KatKiss ones? Im asking because i use skype a lot and that is an issue to me. :/

On KatKiss 4.3 the camera do t work for me. The CM 10 and 10.1 ROMs and KatKiss 4.2.2 it worked fine. I have not tried any CM 10.2 ROMs.

Hmmm, if I did it was a while ago. CM 9 is based on ICS. I have not run an ICS ROM for more than a few hours in over a year. I would say that the Jelly Bean based ROMs (CM10.X) feel SO much faster due to project butter. I flashed back to stock ICS a bit ago, and it feels so sluggish.
Most of the threads on CM 10 you can see how stable they are. I know the No-Name CM 10.1 is rock solid. Joesteink has moved on, but the ROM is still rock solid and many users swear by it.

Is CM finally stable? I had it installed a year or so ago, but then it was still beta for the transformer. Since then I used various flavors and eventually stayed with the EOS-build. Very stable with all the options I ever need (like overclocking and gouvenor-changing). I'm still using EOS, since it's stable and performing very well. Katkiss seems to be the continuation of it, so you could try it yourself And if you don't like it, then you drop it for something else
