Here is my list for i9000
1. Slim ICS
2. MIUI

Definitely congrats to these devs. Those are some awesome ROMS. I think ParanoidAndroid should have made it onto here.

Thanks for the link, was a good read!

MIUI might move up with some of the great improvements now coming along with V4.

[ROM][PORT]PARANOIDANDROID 1.5 ICS/ CM 7 Touchwiz Rom/LIGUX ICS Rom

This rom is based on cm9 by Hillbeast;when JB will released;i will make PA rom based on JB also.
Some of you may have heard of tablet mode and if you have tried it you know well that it smashes your phone. Apps are small, their layout is screwed, things overlap, crash or stop working, Google Play forbids you to download, if you tried AOKP you cant even use launcher and phone. In short, it is a mess.
PARANOIDANDROID changed that. It does not "heal" tablet mode, it obliterates the boundaries. You define how big or small apps are, you define in which UI they display, no matter if your phone runs in tablet or phone mode, which also you can define. Customize every single entity on your phone, lockscreen, navigationbar, system-components, widgets, apps. If you prefer stay with your three bearpaw buttons + drop-down curtain or switch to a combined navigationbar + drop-up notificationcenter, enjoy Youtube in 3D, Gmail and settings in 2-columns, Chrome in its better mobile UI, etc.There are still many hidden features.Maybe u can find one...

HOW TO INSTALL
If you are on cm9 rom then you can install directly without wipe so that all your data will be safe but to remain on the safer side i suggest to do a complete wipe before flashing this rom
You need to wipe all things if you are come from any other rom except cm9
HOW TO
*long press power button and select toggle statusbar to hide\unhide the statusbar.
*check softkeys under paranoid settings to have softkeys on statusbar
*DON'T REDUCE THE DENSITY OF ANY APP LESS THAN 120 OR THE APP WILL FORCE CLOSE
*u can switch the ui from tablet ui to phone ui under paranoid settings\hybrid settings\list of apps\select app and change the ui and density\hit apply.u can change the density and ui of all system and downloaded apps here.
*report some major bugs and do leave some feedback

@halco...... bro ICS is less developed than GB so why pratikmore port paranoid fot 2 times (1 on ICS & 2 on JB),, i sure JB is developed faster than ICS,,,,

Yes JB is further along on paper, but marcel hasn't updated the github to reflect the working list and the build we are all messing around with at the moment is in a much worse state than ICS, so until Marcel decides to update guthub or release a newer build I think ICS is still better. JB will be the best as it already looks fantastic but for now ICS is good and we dont know how long we will have to wait for JB, let him do his thaang!
^^ absolutely true... since there is an indefinite time before first cm10 build release, so its better to use ics as its currently used by many (including me).
@OP thanx very much, always wanted to try PA. Its too good. Btw, first build not released yet ???

MOTHER OF GOD!!!! I was porting it but, I thought that the tablet interface wouldn't be good on the G3. Never the less how is it?

screenshots ?
I don't exactly have my phone to test this out but I see that you wrote HTC Sense UI. I'm guessing this is just a port of the launcher and not Sense as a whole. Am I right in thinking this?
Great job in your release!

It has been said before but look at the original development requirements
What does NOT belong to the Original Android Development section?
Your own “unofficial” stock build of your favourite original, source-built (or otherwise) ROM, particularly where an official or maintainer-endorsed thread exists already.
Minor derivatives of other ROMs with little or no changes, or ROMs consisting of “placebo” features as a main constituent or claim.
Renames or rebadges of others’ work – these don’t belong on XDA at all! Refer to rule 12 for more information.
Reposts of existing ROMs with small changes (i.e. kitchen work, such as adding a couple of apps). If you could realistically distribute your changes as an “addon pack” above and beyond a ROM, you should do so. In addition, your “ROM” would not be original development as it would be substantially identical to the original ROM.
A thread created with unrealistic goals that are clearly unachievable by those starting the thread. This is not intended to discourage high aspirations, rather to prevent threads porting Windows Phone 8 to the HTC Wallaby. This is pretty much common sense.
A ROM where a main or significant claim/feature is graphical changes to the user interface (ie. Themed ROM)

I can confirm not working on Resurrection Remix on my Z2. Themes chooser "stops" when opening it from settings. I suppose probably thanks to the custom ROM. Ah well. Thanks for sharing this.

Working on Note 4 SM-910F official CM 12.1
I'm trying it on S4 mini LTE , AICP 10.0
EDIT: Awesome, it is working ! thanks !
EDIT 2 : it is laggy when I'm inside the theme chooser (not when choosing per app theme), is it due to my phone or to the app ?
Working fine on AICP 10.0 ktle (g900t). Awesome. Thanks for this!!
