Best Stable Stock ROM - Captivate General

Hi I have a stock Att Captivate and my bro wants to put a custom ROM. Can someone link me a STABLE gingerbread ROM. Is there a ALL IN ONE Odin for this phone. I have a Droid Charge so i know how to use Odin. I dont know about this Master Clean so if there is a ALL IN ONE Odin that would be great. Thanks in advance for the help.
NOTE: doesnt have to be fully stock just dont want something crazy custom cause hes not too crazy with android like that

maybe CM7 and after it you can install TouchWiz launcher on it, so i will be visualy as stock

Best rom thread?. What can be best for you, can't be for me and others. That is why these kind of threads are redundant.
On that note, thread closed.

TouchWiz Help

Is there anyway that i can put TouchWiz back on my phone. I am currently running a 2.2 bases rom and was wondering is it even possible to use touchwiz with the 2.2 rom?
Please help.
It depends on what rom and kernel you're using. I'd suggest you go to the rom/kernel thread and ask that question. Usually in the first post for each rom/kernel, there's a link for TW Launcher, if it is compatible.
oh ok. Thanks

[Q] Best firmware for SGS

Hi,
I was using SGS I 9000 and with the official 2.3.3 DDJV6 version which is very very slow. After that i have tried so many leaked firmwares but unfortunately none of them works well for me..none of them are stable & bugfree.
Right now i am using DDJV9 with voodoo lagfix. This is also not running effeciently..phone gots very very hot upto 55C.
Kindly help me reviving my sgs experince. Please kindly also share the link also for the same.
Thanks alot in advance.
No roms not even OEM roms are free of bugs mate, try flashing some other custom roms until u find the one that suits ur needs.
I agree none of them is bug free. But Whichever leaked firmware i have used is not not even stable. I just want stable & fast firmware.
People kindly help.

No one will be able to tell you what will run well on your device with your set up. Try roms out till you rind one that works for you. Each device is different and so are the way we use them.
Try ROM Mintberry, link to post

Thanks..
Right now i am little confused. Till now i have only checked the different firmwares not tried any ROM.
Are firmware and ROM are 2 different things or same? Sorry if it is too basic..
Firmware and ROM are sort of intertwined. The firmware mostly relates to the underlying infrastructure that the ROM depends upon. Things like the kernel and radio. The ROM is the actual implementation of the OS. When you flash new firmware, you also get a new ROM along with it.
Some custom ROMs, such as Darky's ROM, are very closely related to the stock ROM, and have mostly performance and cosmetic changes. Other ROMs such as Mintberry MIUI and Onecosmic are quite significantly different from any of the stock ROMs.
They also depend on particular parts of the stock firmware. Onecosmic and MIUI both require gingerbread bootloaders to have been previously installed from a stock firmware package.
If you want my two cents on what to use, I am currently using Onecosmic RC2.11 (waiting for the phone to charge to full, then going to install RC3) and it is excellent. It is based on Ice Cream Sandwich, it runs quickly, and it looks beautiful.
There is a link to the XDA thread here.

[Q] ROM suggestions please

A friend of mine just got a droid 2 global and wants to install a custom rom that is very stable and fast, with no bloat. I personally am a sprint user with an EVO 4G, so looking through the development section is a little greek to me. He just rooted, and intalled CWM Recovery using something called bootstrap.. not sure what that is, but he seems to be rooted fine and can boot into CWM just fine. He a few states away so I am helping him by telephone.
Can anyone suggest a good rom to install. I don't think he is looking for a MIUI type ROM as this is his first android phone and wants the real feel of the android OS. Maybe a good ROM/Kernel combo would be great. Thanks!
There are a few floating around in the Dev section..

[Q] Need advice wheter to flash custom rom or still on stock?

Dear user,
I would like to see your advice whether should I flash a cutom rom like NOS_v2.0.0_X920E or to still run stock?
My device is HTC X920e with unlocked bootloader, S-ON rooted and TWRP installed.
Are there any advantages to go for custom rom? I know i'm running and there are some chines app installed even we delete it removed it using other advance apk or ultimate backup.etc, but after restart the phone, thos will be auto installed which is very annoying.
But maybe you can help bring some more reasons why we should still on stock or custom one.
Thank in advance and feel that in HTC butterfly's forum seem silent and not more developers like to pay much here.
Fell very lonely here
Edited: decided to flash right a way. running custom rom now...
phone's really not that famous to devs out there. so far I've used the NOS ROM and nothing else. not much to choose from, that is. but the ROM's running great for a daily driver.

ROM's and kernel suggestions

Hey guys, so I got a brand new HTC M8 and Ive been reading all of the rooting guides and such and had a few questions. After doing a search I'm not really seeing many suggestions. So after I S-off, install custom recovery, do a backup of my stock rom, and then put a permanent root on my phone, what ROM do you guys recommend to be the best? Someone out there that has tried most of them? I love to tweak so thought Id get your guys opinions. Also, do most of you use keep the stock kernel or use a custom kernel, if so which kernel do you like? Thanks guys!!!!

I've tried Almost all. For my daily driver I use cleanrom 1.3 on stock kernel atm. I don't mess much with kernels but have just browsed thru a few threads and found some kernels that do not have "official" release. Look into them as they have gotten nice reviews. Sky fall is nice for stock as well. D.h. and his GPE ROM is pretty on point with that straight google experience. I have not tried sinless yet but that has good rants for being a GPE ROM. As far as aosp they are hit or miss for my device. Play with those for your own experience. I prefer the stock sense and great battery life so since I have been following @scrosler from my past few phones and know what to expect I am partial to his creations. Good luck. Don't forget to NANDROID And thank your devs .
