[Q] Most stable ROM?

Hi people, how are you. I still can't find a ROM to stick with. For those who have tested many roms, which one is the most complete package? Fewest bugs and most stable?
Right now I'm on EB 2.3.3 and it's really nice, but I got a few errors (lost connectivity, txt took forever to receive). It hasn't happened since, and I hope it stays this way.
So, what are you running, and why.
Your on a good one...they all have little things wrong with them...

Depends on what u looking for, wish i could combine all, cm tweaks+froyo cam+froyo a2dp.
been on cm7 nightlies, birgertime 2.3.5, whitehawks MIUI and 2.3.3 OTA build, EagleBlood all of them, faux's from AOSP to right before he started to work on a CM7 source build, xboarder's stock tweaked...
Right now I'm on Whitehawk's 2.3.3 rom and I like it enough to stay with it, but really want kernel options and LG cam. EB froyo was super stable and still have that has my reliable (won't be near a computer to flash and play with roms) Nandroid. So I'd say stick with EB for now to be honest. That and he updates with the most stable updates IMO... infact I might be flashing back to that tonight, after thinking about it lol.
Thanks guys. Anyone have experience with the latest MIUI? I loved it on my G2, but it seems really buggy for the G2X.

I am running it with the faux latest kernel. It has been pretty stable. I like the fact that you have so many options in terms of themes and lockscreens.
I have tried many ROMS but CM7 still stand out. CM7 is solid.

Dude and I'm digging the browser in the new one, kinda like dolphin, I like how u hit back once and it actually goes back a page also u can scroll with the volume buttons lol the newest miui is nice!
I just can't run any CM7 rom given the lack of a2dp. this is such a basic and crucial functionality missing that i cannot imagine having a rom without it.

+1 , me too, forgot how much i missed and used it... i try to go to cm but i always leave based on that and hdmi out at 1080 is not working... all which of those work perfect on the 2.3.3 roms.
xboarder cm7/stock remix is the most stable i tried so far. right now im on weapon g2x which is good clean rom.
i just did the clockworkmod flash and done a full backup and was going to try a few roms without all the bloatware tmobile puts on.. but i HAVE to have a rom that is stable with wifi calling because i have 0 signal at home and wifi calling is very important to me.. in fact the stock wifi calling is kind of flaky on this g2x and would like a rom that might have this perfected a bit more.. any recomendations?
thanks

I have the same issue with no signal and needing wifi calling. without a doubt X-boarders stock tweaked is the best I have been on for stability and daily use. I havent been on the new weapon rom yet but I have been hearing good things about it. right now I am trying out faux new aosp with his OC kernel and for two days it has been solid. Only had one data drop so far. X-boarders is the way to go I think. I have been considering going back until Miui or CM7 is more solid.

[Q] Why no GPS better yet why no mention of it being an issue with CM?

I am extremely frustrated with what's going on with my P3113. My GPS is not working with CM9/10 or PA. When I have stock installed locks instantly with 8 satellites. When I install CM/9 right from stock after whipping data NOTHING. What is even more frustrating is the complete and total lack of any threads about this issue. You can't tell me I"m the only one with this issue. I flashed with Odin back to stock 4.0.4 whipped data and installed CM 9.1.0 for p3113 and still NO GPS lock. There is no mention anywhere that GPS is broken on CM9 so why is it not working? North America GT-P3113.
I bump this thread in hopes of someone making a comment about the GPS situation; it's true no one comments about it.

[Q] Best Rom with working WIFI tether for NS4G

None of the latest NS4G roms in development seem to support WIFI Tehthering. Maybe I'm wrong?
I've gone back to GB Bugless Beast for now, because it just works. I miss all of the fancy doodads in JB roms, though. Any ideas?

[Q] AOSP and AOKP ROM current issues

What are the current known issues with AOKP and AOSP ROMs? Basically, What I mean is, all of the ROM's say they have no bugs but there are always issues with AOSP and AOKP. Things like MMS not working or other issues.
Can anyone give me some idea of what the current issues are to help decide whether to switch from TW to AOSP or AOKP?

Most roms have no bugs, or people report such a wide range of bugs that might or might not be rom related. It's hard to pinpoint sometimes if people are reporting a real bug or not.
You're best off testing a rom you want and seeing for yourself if it works for you, everyone is going to have a different experience trying out different roms. In general, touchwiz roms are going to be much more stable, AOSP and AOKP are going to have more stability issues and more bugs that tend to come out. But again, everyone has different experiences so you should try each one for yourself rather than asking these types of questions.

ok thanks for the advice but thats not what I was asking. I realize that each ROM has its own issues on each persons individual phone.
The question I was asking is, what are the known issues across ALL AOSP or AOKP ROMs? Meaning, issues since they all come from the same tree. In the past there has been MMS issues on ALL AOSP ROM's. What, if any, are the issues with the current AOSP ROMs?
double post.

Ya I don't know that much detail about them, hopefully you get a more direct answer.

I can say Bluetooth issues (streaming or even toggling it off in Settings) are an AOSP wide issue based on other users' posts. Depending on how you feel about signal reception, it may or may not be worse in your area if you live in poor signal strength areas. I live in an area where my reception averages about -110 dBm. So reception is equally poor on both TW and AOSP for me but I may drop calls slightly more frequently on AOSP. My reception is great everywhere that I have stronger signal though. Lastly, the camera might be another point of emphasis but idk first hand cuz I don't take pics often. I dislike the AOSP camera UI and prefer the options of the TW camera.

Youtube problems?

Anyone managed to resolve the problems CM and CM-based ROMS are having with Youtube not working? This is a big problem for me, as I prefer to use Kangs or some other ROM based on CM but I can't because Youtube stops working. I have searched the threads for several such ROMS and aside from posts stating that this is a problem with all CM based ROMS right now, I find no mention of the problem. Just hoping someone has had a bit of luck here
