cyberGR ? and whats best kernel for it ?
Bugless Beast Pixel Edition + Franco Kernel.
As a noob who has tried many combo, this is most stable and fast.
air kernel
I use Brainmaster's CM9 with Matrix 19.0
Its very stable, and pretty smooth.
I've used CyberGR v10, but i prefer Brainmaster's Rom over his. (had a lot of issues with his Rom)
Will try these. You can suggest more combos and links please. Thanks alot

Trinity kernel and Rascream combo is pretty awesome
RasCream and any Trinity kernel

Currently using the latest cm9 skankwich with Trinity, loving the speed and battery. Gaming works wonderfully.

it means that your phone cant handle the 1.44ghz cpu oc and 240mhz(20%) bus/gpu oc. not many phones can. every phone is different. some can oc high, some not so high, and some not at all. unfortunately, even though its the same phone, they can vary widely in performance.
aokp + matr1x
+1 derek.
AOKP build33 with Matr1x
AOKP B32 with air kernel. Runs quite nice. Although battery lasts only about 12h. On b31 with matr1x kernel I reached 15+h on my i9023 but it got unstable due to liveoc.
I like aokp a lot, but I am not sure about which is the best kernel. I think with the next milestone I will do a systematical test series.

I just flashed the latest MIUI 1.9.2. I like it so far, but the flash wiped my netarchy kernel with one that is incompatible with Voodoo.
So, which Kernel is generally regarded as the best for MIUI for battery life, audio, and well, everything?

Im using the trinity kernel and it runs great. Smooth, fast and great battery life...then again ive only been on MIUI and trinity kernel for about 2 days lol
I'm running netarchy kernel and it runs really good. Also bugless Pete and matrix are also very good for me. Just test them out and see what's best for you

Bugless pete kernel is the best , as BrainMaster himself uses it in his rom.

I personally use Trinity TUV10 - for me the best kernel.
BuglessPete's is included only because some people can't boot Trinity, and BP kernel is better then the stock one.
But TUV10 is the best - my opinion.

Thanks. I may try your MIUI out today. So you recommend TUV10 over TUV11?

NexusBeam 4.1.0 & GlaDOS 2.5 kernel combination works nice for me , but why this same question always Try some for your own preference, because people have different tastes!
Oics with glados.
Cm9 with matrix.
Or
BrickROM(you need to fix boot.img before flashing, which involves having to decomplie it on a computer and many other time comsouming act ivies to get it up and running. Think of BrickROM like Debian LINIX)

Deep Idle in GlaDOS 2.5 is not working correctly, you can get the 2.6 kernel now.
Hello NS community! I exchanged my Desire for my fiancee's NS and now I'm flash happy.
I intentionally did not ask what the BEST ROM was to avoid a flame war, so please share what you find to be your FAVOURITE ICS flavour.
Until now I tried CyberGR-MOD v1 but it was very unstable for me so I was unimpressed. Next up on the flash list are CM9 Alpha 18 and Peter Alfonso's ROM.
Suggestions?
Peter Alfonso ICS
Thanks, for now I'm running CM9 Alpha18 and seems to be quite stable.
I just flashed bixies' ROM last night and it seems to be very stable so far.
IMO, the real fun with Nexus S is the kernel, we have many great kernels for you to play with

Do tell!
Currently I'm using Matr1x-cfs_v14.0Matr1x-cfs_v14.0. OCed at 1460 and no FCs, no reboots, no freezes, just buttery smooth performance.
Slightly off-topic, but I have to say I'm terribly impressed withe the Nexus S - it's a very powerful device.

I've read good things about that ROM and I'll be sure to flash that next, if CM9 disappoints.

It has been feeling very smooth, at least in the few hours I've used it. We'll see how it goes.
AOSP+ and Matrix 14 cfs gives me a great combination of performance and battery life. I tried ICUP too and it gives great performance but battery life is better with Matrix.
So is CM9 smooth and stable enough to be used as my everyday ROM? Also, are there any posts or wikis about all the different kernels, guides on flashing and their pros and cons? My last dev device was a Blade and there weren't nearly as many different kernels and options available for that. Oh, and does CM9 come with a kernel..I don't need to flash anything else?

Yes CM9 comes with it's own kernel. It's a mod on the 3.0.8 kernel. CM9 been running on my phone for 6 days now without a single reboot and FC.

What I normally do is:
* do a full wipe (system, data, cache) if you are flashing a different ROM
* flash ROM first, reboot to make sure it runs properly
* flash kernel, wipe dalvik-cache (or also cache, just in case)
Always flash a ROM that says it supports your phone model. Also make sure that if you're using ICS ROM then flash an ICS kernel. On the other hand, if you're using GB ROM then flash a GB kernel.

Now using Bugless Beast by Pete Alfonso, but I'm waiting until nexus Sense has got data! Than I probably will move to Nexus Sense! I'm running on the stock kernel, but Nexus Sense will run on Matr1x 11.5!! Bit old, but newer versions are for ICS.. Nexus Sense is on 2.3.3 at the moment... bit bad, but okay!

I've always gotten good battery life from Pete's roms. I do alot of internet stuff, as well as the normal few calls and texts during the day. I have no problem going an entire 15 hour day without hitting the charger.
Wow, that pretty good battery life. Ill be sure to give it a go. Thanks everyone for there input helped a great deal.
Cyber-GR mod v7 with Matr1x kernel 15.5. Its stable, smooth and fast (at 200-1200 mhz smartass v2). That's my main ROM & Kernel, but I'm always trying out new roms.
The new 4.0.3 MIUI roms werent impressive to me. Not smooth, and fast enough :/.
AOKP Milestone 3 with SG's 2/05 kernel. Pretty rock solid in terms of battery life and stability and overall smoothness .

No tweaks.
When i took that benchmark i was on PA 2.54 with stock kernel, OC'd @ 1200mhz, that's it.

I also got i9023 btw.
