your favorite ROM?

I've been using ****AO5P for a few weeks now and it's absolutely amazing. I don't really know what else to ask for, but is there anything better out there?

Well shiftsense was just as fast and had the same battery life but I recently switched to bamf 1.0.7 and I like it. Lots of mods and themes and same speed, not amazing on battery life but that's okay

I too use BAMF, on double shot right now love the landscape mode on home page.
If I helped you in any way please use the thank you button

I've tried a bunch and have settled on BAMF 1.0.7

i've tried em all, but sticking with cm7 for now.. i loved bamf forever, but switched a few days ago because the call answer and sleep of death bugs were too much for me to handle.

ShiftAOSP for AOSP Rom and my rom for a sense Rom.

how do you run two roms at the same time?

Synergy for me.....the latest build is working awesome for me. Was on bamf soab but the "end call" bug kinda scared me away, other than that it was a good rom. Synergy just works for me

Lol nandroid is my friend we go way back!

I guess my fav is stock rooted. I'm in bamf now and it has some really nice features but I don't see any big advantage over stock rooted. I'm going to try to give bamf a week b4 I make up my mind though.
I'd love an open source rom but I keep reading about one bug after another. I like everything to just...work.

If I run into either of those bugs I'm back to stock rooted. I went into bamf tools and chose 2.1 lock screen so I hope that will prevent the end call bug.
The sleep of death bug wont bother me too much as long as it is very rare and the phone can be turned on. Sleep of death to brick would be bad

Sig says it all...
My name is Revos I'm a recovering flashaholic running Liquid Gingerbread 3.0

Running BAMF SoaB now with Imo's Kernel, and I am VERY impressed!

Hey OP the dev of shiftao5p is gonna get made when he sees you calling it ****AO5P.

I was running Bamf Forever 1.0.7 But Wanted to try CM7 Haven't Went back! Using Imo's Lean AOSP Kernel Overclocked to 1.4Ghz I'm set! i just miss the sexyness of Sense 3.0

Nice typo.
Signature.

Son of a Bliss is awesome. If you like sense 3.0, you'll hate it after you try a sense 3.5 Rom. I always hated 3.0. Too laggy. Sense 3.5 FLIES!!!

BAMF forever, smoothest sense rom out there IMO

I was never an AO5P fan but when i tried SHIFTAO5P HACK3ED and i absolutely love it. However i was a Bamf fan when i first rooted, switched to Infused Theory and loved it when 3.0 was added so i think i will have to try 3.5. I have seen videos and it looks good. Link? im not seeing it in xda, he move like theory did?
Edit: nm google told me
wow his list of bugs looks annoying? =/ ill try but i think it will be a 1 day thing. thats not to say ShiftAO5P Hacked doesnt have bugs but i have foud a few but i can live with them.

Yeah I began with minibamf which was vanilla also then I started messing with cm7 mods and stuff fell.in love, as I progressed I thought shift ao5p hack3d was great but this new romicied iBolt Tom based off OC he aforementioned rom is SOOOOO FAST

[Q] What ROMS are you using.

I just picked up the Skyrocket just wondering what ever one is using

Skyrocketeer w/faux123's Kernal + Launcher Pro Launcher. Works very well. Just waiting on ICS.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

Sky Ice Cream Rom. Deeply themed Rom with most tweaks for our rocket with Faux123's kernel.

I use sky ICS with the faux kernel... excellent battery life, looks and runs good that would be my recommendation to you.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App

another vote for sky ICS. Nexus is nice as well, but less themed.

I have been using SkyStocketeer, but since it hasn't been updated in awhile I swapped over to Bouyancy.
Very very pleased with this one so far. Stable and quite speedy for me.

im using nexusmod 2.0 currently it works like a champ i have yet to have a FC on it. Very Stable Very Fast and my battery life has been good.

Nexusmod 2.0 as well.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App

currently using NexusM0D v2.0
waiting for NexusM0D v2.1 or buoyancy 1.3.1

I am currently using SkyICS RC7 with Faux123's kernel..
pretty good.. fast. i get some jitter when i scroll through some menus (i.e. my call log), battery life is pretty good as well..
I had NexusMOD2.0 with faux123 installed.. i liked this one too.. very stable, never one FC (in 2 weeks of using it) and battery life was AMAZING!!
the only reason i switched is cause i like trying new things, and GO Launcher EX didn't run as smooth on the nexusMod 2.0 ROM..

Im new to andriod and got a skyrocket a month ago, and now i love the ability to switch between roms. currently running SkyICS rc7 with Faux kernel. very fast and have little issues with it but im addicted to flashing and will probably change soon so many great roms to choose from thanks for everyones hard work

Hellfire or Eagle (ICS)

Which one are you using??
I tried both but haven't seen a difference on either..
But overall there are some things that aren't working that made me go back to my previous rom.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

I had a lot of FC's on Hellfire's initial build, tried the second version, it was a bit better but then switched to EB's version and everything seems to work. I also installed the latest Faux kernel to save on battery.

both have issues at the moment. remember this is just an alpha build so you will have issues. just give it about 2 - 3 months. right now i'm using HF GB 1.9. it is soooooooooo smooth that i haven't wanted to reflash ICS. IMO HF 1.9 is clearly the best GB ROM out there. also HFS was stable when I had it. I didn't have any issues with it. no FC or anything other than just the normal stuff not working.

I have been running HFS for several days now and it has been running very smoothly for an Alpha release. Looking forward to updates in the near future.

Have any of you tried self kang 3? Not to through the topic off course.
I think HFS is most stable of the two.

I have tried both. Right now, I prefer EB but that is just my preference. They are both fine roms.
Right now i just like the look of EB over HF

Hadn't tried Hellfire but I'm using eglesblood. Using it because don has more experience with ics cuz he has the nexus an everyone seems to like his rom on the gnex. Not saying it to bash hell, just that has less experience but I can see hell has a lot of potential.

HFS v.1.1
Haven't tried EB ICS, but am very happy with HFS. I've had no problems since I flashed it when it came out. My phone has an uptime of 4.5 days without a FC or glitch. Right now it's my daily driver till v1.2 comes out.
PartzMan2
Phone: Rooted G2x
Rom: HFS v1.1
OC: 1200 Mhz

I'm using eb right now because its the most stable atm. I'm a big fan of hell's work so as soon as its as smooth as hellfire , I'm flashing It.

Faux kernel hasn't made any battery saving changes yet, just adding OC/UV and DS Driver

I just installed EB and it's pretty much perfect. Runs smooth as hell, and I love the new ICS stuff. I am having a huge issue with not being able to get any data connection though. I've read and re-read through the pages of the original post but couldn't find anyone mentioning this issue. I have tried to manually add the apn and it doesn't seem to save the settings. Has anyone else had this issue with EB? Does anyone have a simple fix for this issue?
Thanks for reading.

Both great
Both roms are great, ive used em both and currently running HFS, I wish the camera would get sorted out soon otherwise they are both pretty great.

Hello, everyone!
I have nothing but love for the HellFire ICS ROM, and have been using Hell's ROMs since Hellfire Phoenix 1.5.
I used EB for a while a few months back, but preferred the CM7 UI and stayed with that until I first tried the Hellfire ROMs.

I've noticed that EB ICS rom lags a bit when I hit the app drawer, not really a big deal, but gets annoying sometimes, I'm not sure if its the same for Hellfire?

Quickest and Smoothest ROM for G2x?

Alright, I know this is one of the worst questions to ask on this forum, but I can't help myself.
There are so many choices, and its so hard differentiating them from each other.
So far, I am deciding between hellfire and eagleblood. (Latest ICS)
All I want is the phone to work smoothly. I want apps to load without freezing, and the least amount of lag in general in the phone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks ahead of time.

Try looking through the many similiar threads that were properly posted in the Q&A section.

What is the difference between Hellfire Sandwich and Hellfire Pheonix?
Also, a reason I am asking this is because a lot of the other forums are outdated..

Why don't you do some research? This is such a simple answer. I'm only going to tell you so you don't ask any more obvious ones. HP is based off of Gingerbread, HS is based off Ice Cream Sandwich. If you don't know what that means, search for the answer.
And read the threads in the Dev section, they're not dead.

okay.. i'll just go ahead and get pheonix..

Good choice as a rom to start off with.

EB 4 Life!

I cannot strongly enough recommend running Hellfire Phoenix 2.0 with the ELP Trinity kernel. This combination has given me the utmost in speed, stability and battery life and makes me constantly marvel at how perfectly silky smooth my phone runs. ICS on the G2X doesn't have a proper 4.x.x kernel so it is unstable and buggy as a result.

I agree I was getting around 26-30 hours with the combo and no issues pretty much... Only thing I was using EaglesBlood 2.3.7...The major thing that caused me back to a stock based rom was the low mic volume, gets annoying hearing people tell me to speak up, although not an issue to all.

I did a clean install of Weapon. Rebooted and let it sit for 10 minutes. Rebooted again and let it sit. Then I flash New Clip and let it sit for a bit. New Clip flashes over Weapon.Then I flashed my favorite theme. Stayed with the kernel that comes with it. I have never had great luck with alternative kernels and I really have no need for overclocking.
Kwes has an ICS like theme that looks great. Then I added ADW ex and loaded an ICS theme for it. I am very happy with the setup. Been running it this way for several months.
I have been playing around with the V6 Super Charger script but for whatever reason I seem to run out of memory faster when web surfing. I am still learning about everything it does, so I am not 100% sure that it is set up correctly for my needs.

Using latest version of Eaglesblood with faux kernel. It's stable, and battery life is awesome. I'm not into ROM swapping. When find one that works, I stick with it, and it's looking like I'll be with this one for a while. Maybe when an ICS ROM gets refined, I'll give it a go. I would like to have Chrome on the android.

Using CM 7.2 RC1 with faux ds kernel. I get about thirteen hours of medium use, light use lasts a couple of days.
It's a great stock rom without the problems of LG based ones.

Im currently rocking...The latest and greatest... seriously Sooo many INCREDIBLE roms to choose from its hard to keep still. however... i recently gave miui (singh)another shot just for fun and am currently hooked. AMAZED at the smoothness and utter sexiness of the theme engine and GIGANTIC selection of themes. This will definetly keep my interest for some time! the ui is different and fun too. Only Con so far is the normal CM7 quirk (upside down video chat), nothing too big to keep me from rockin it for a while.

Weapon G2x 3.0 R1

Cm7 7.2 RC1
Actually looks fine. But I notice more stutter than before, perhaps the ICS animation is bogging it some down.
Still a fan of CM7/Cm9.
I can honestly say, I'm sticking to the G2X despite having a Galaxy GS2. I truely enjoy the Cyanogen ROMS and can't wait for it to come CM9 on G2X and GS2
Also that Samsung is too big. Should have waited. Not sure I'll get any device over 4 inch screen. But thats me

Upside down video chat is an easy fix, use root explorer to change bulid.prop manufacturer to Samsung and model to Nexus S. Works for all cm7 / miui roms

I was running weapon + new clip for the past few days but battery life was terrible for me, too bad cause I really liked the rom it has a lot of really nice features. I'm currently on cm7.2 rc1, can't complain so far. Battery life's decent, and its quick n snappy even on stock kernel.
