Which version of android are you running?

Just a poll to see what you guys are running, I want to see if most everyone has switched to gingerbread.

I'd actually be surprised if that was the case. I'd imagine most are holding out until there's a simpler way to flash it.

I havn't had time to flash a gingerbread ROM, it is a somewhat lengthy process.
I'm still on 5.12 seren

im with Modest Mandroid...its the only reason why i have flashed to GB. you always always read if you're not sure/dont know how/cant read/cant spell/cant count/cant follow instructions/feel uncomfortable and so on so forth then dont do it!
I believe i could do it, just dont wanna risk my only phone. The froyo ROMs are so simple to do and theres plenty to choose from so that will hold me over for now

Is MikeyMike working on a 2.3 based rom?
His roms are always the best, and I'd definitely hold out for his rom if one was in the works.

The one that works!
Caution swyping! Read at your own risk.

Continuum 5 b3. Ive flashed back to all kinds of froyo roms and i flashed sense from the i9000 just to test it out. Ive flashed jvb GB roms here and there and its really not that difficult at all.

It might be because I'm a newb, or my kernal is incompatable, but every rom I've tried has bugged out. The worst was ICS, where my home button had no functionality whatsoever. So currently I'm just running Faux's kernal and that's it. Solid, not buggy, no problems so far...

UHF sky ics isn't working right for you, then you are doing something wrong. I compare my phone to my brothers unrooted skyrocket. Mine is faster with the same battery life. Sometimes better battery life depending on the update.

[ROM/DEV] MIUI Alpha 1

MIUI
Alpha 1
MIUI is one of the most popular Android ROMs across all devices, and here it is, (almost) completely ready for the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket!
Issues
Mobile Network may or may not work. I believe you have to be unlocked.
Camera DOES NOT yet work
In-call audio does not work. One workaround may be to leave the GPS on and reboot. However, as I am not unlocked, I cannot test this.
Wifi sometimes gives an error. Looks like you're going to have to flash Da_G's CM7 kernel without any tweaks to fix that.
Let me know if there are any other issues! Other than that, this ROM could be a daily driver.
Working
Everything not listed above
Questions?
Just ask!
Dev Work
This is my first ROM, so I may need a little help dealing with all the problems that may arise. You are free to download this, modify it as you want, and repost it as your own. Just give credit where needed.
Special Thanks
XAviierG - This ROM is based off of all of XAviierG's hard work. I merely made small edits to make it work with the i727.
Da_G - This ROM's kernel is based off of Da_G's CM7 kernel.
SolteRR - SolteRR was able to fix the problem with the internal SD not being mounted by the ROM.
Download
Alpha 1: http://www.mediafire.com/?74r3b81u203tbqo
Da_G's CM7 Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398512
This ROM is very close to being done! I hope to have a completely stable and working ROM as a daily driver by next month.

No, it's Gingerbread based. We can't have an ICS based MIUI rom until we have a stable ICS rom.

Great job, dude! Hope you can port the camera drivers from slayhers cm7 kang in the t989 forum
Then this thing would be DD material!!!
You should also post this in the t989 section with the rotation issue fixed. You will get HELLA donations

Data didn't work, wifi and APNs wouldn't stick, some scrolling animation issues. Otherwise, looks awesome to see MI727R.

Looking good, you may want to add scrolling graphic errors to issues/things you need to fix. Seems to glitch out whenever I move too quickly between homescreens. But seriously great job, I love MIUI, great to see it on my skyrocket.

Okay, I can confirm the following working on my i727R:
wifi
signal
SMS
call audio doesnt work.

anyone have screenshots. i know what miui looks like, but still.... lol

Best ROM to install?

I'm currently questioning what rom to install. I just moved from the mytouch 4g and currently eagles blood installed. Just wondering your opinion.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA

they're ALL AWESOME!!!! choose one and flash it. Though im currently on Weapon G2x 3.0 R1. New clipped by Kwes1020 and seem to always come back to this one. Real fast, real stable, great battery. everything i need in a rom with some customization options and nice QP toggles for convenience.

ya.. with the exact same header too, what rom is the best rom?
"because i don't want to read the million post people have already posted. and form an opinion myself"
"i want someone to read the forums for me, and give me my opinion"...
give me a break...

Stick with a gb rom like eaglesblood or hellfire phoenix for best results. ICS roms still need source from lg before there considered stable.

Should i go back to GB

I love ics, i really do.. but its too buggy and really bad battery life. Should i get a gb rom instead? And i know this is prob somewhere and someone will rage at me for asking, but can u go right back to ics by normal flash if u wanted?

No you can't because GB is bml and ICS is Mtd

What roms have you tried. I'm at 72% battery on Remics with light usage and on about 19 hrs usage
Sent from my SGH-T959W using xda app-developers app

I did it few days ago. Went from ICS back to GB. AntonX's Barebones ROM. Enjoying great battery life now, strong WiFi signal and absence of other bugs.
Personally, I'd stay with ICS, but I'm handing down this phone to my wife (got Galaxy Nexus, yay!). And she does not care much about bells and whistles, she needs a solid ROM she can count on. As much as I loved ICS, it's not there yet.
Can recommend Barebones, great ROM. Apart from the strange color for interface bars, but that's a minor thing, and after all tastes differ. Other than that, it's a great solid ROM.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app

I went back to GB and the very next day I went back to ICS. I'm not far away from a charger ever and other than that the bugs are very minimal. I never really thought ICS was that big of a jump from GB but then getting so used to ICS and going back to GB it was night and day. I'd stay on ICS

Huh?
GB and ICS both have MTD. CM7!?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2

Granted, I think that CM7 is the only MTD based GB rom.
And I need to update it... eh. so much to do.
Then I have newer version of blastoff v3 and an AOSP based rom coming soon. Which is still BML... for now.

I left ICS to go back to Valhalla FB. GB battery life is so much better. On Valhalla FB i lose 16% percent battery life in 11 hours of light usage .

I don't understand this thread. You're asking if you should go back to GB but you alteady did. Also, you gave the reasons. So what's the point?
ROMs, either Froyo, GB or ICS, as other works like mods and tweaks are there as options. You don't have to use anything. If you like something you try it and if you don't like it then switch to another thing. If ICS doesn't work because of battery, then go to GB.
I see no reason to create a thread for this. What's your point OP?
