Here is a list of all the roms so far.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1293751
Don't forget about Hellraiser, which allows you to run I9000,Captivate and possibly Vibrant roms also(only been tested on I9000 and Captivate Roms).Try'em all til you find your flavor.
And I would not say they are better than Infused or worse. Everybody has a favorite.
Hell, the jk2 leak is running great for me. I mean almost a day and a half battery life, fast, don't need any hacks or work arounds. All the other options bigfau mentioned I've tried, I like speed and stability and this is just what's best for me.

if you do not have to have GB i highly recomend infused 1.6 froyo
been my daily driver since it was 1.4
very fast and stable
FBN
I use serendipity 7 with hell raiser as my daily and really like it. If you don't mind working a bit to customize. Battery is good, got 30 fps working, using jl2 modem, and used the charcoal theme from the website for a clean look.

try them all and judge for yourself
I recently got my infuse and im ready to shop for some roms. Infused 2.2.3 will be my first try.
Im really trying to go for a red and black theme
Cryogenic mod 7 for me. It's very fast, stable, customizable and works with the wii mote/ps3 controller. Only downside is the normal bluetooth a2dp doesn't work yet. I was on rogers stock gb, but cm7 is better for sure

does it work well with music streaming apps?
I used vevo and youtube no problem, so Pandora and other music streaming must work just as well.
I guess I'm confused as to the point of the original question. Infused hasn't been updated in a month, so you're wanting an alternative? Is that right?
Given that AT&T hasn't released an official Gingerbread ROM (and we're lucky that Rogers did), and the official ROMs are generally the source of custom ROMs, it's really no shock that a) there aren't more custom ROMs for the Infuse and b) Infused hasn't been updated in a month. However, just because it hasn't been updated doesn't mean it's outdated. That's important to note. I mean, short of just slapping a new modem in it and putting a new version number on it, what else is there to do? (Random rhetorical question: If there was a modem added every time a leak came out, and the ROM had a new version number slapped on it, would that be enough to call it "updated" and keep you using it?)
Personally, I use CM7. I use it because I have been using it for ages on my Captivate. It's fast, bloat-free and includes what an OS should include - just the facts, ma'am. If I want anything else, I add it myself. Bluetooth obviously isn't 100% and there are other quirks that pop up from time to time, but it's something I'm willing to deal with and I think the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. YMMV, of course.
Try MIUI, you'll never look for another new ROM again

Holy moly you can do that? Ha well I recomend either dlev or cm7 the compiled version. This is because dlev is just plain cool and fast (good job big fau) and cm7 is just plain fast and awesome for the people with the need for speed. Dlev has a good blue theme, and cm7 is just endless with their themes. Dlev has everything working except hdmi of course, and cm7 does not have bluetooth and hdmi not working. I recomend either of these two roms though, as they are very stable for me, while I would actually get force closes on infused every once in a while. Oh by the way, cm7 has a newly compiled rom almost every day. Dlev is probably better for a newer flasher though. Ha miui may be good, its based off of cm7 but has an iphone like look to it.
use infused + uckj2 modem and gb kernel
If you need bluetooth for streaming audio or making phone calls (at least with a car stereo) then forget about CM7 or MiUi. Neither work for Bluetooth in this regard.
If you don't, and you like customization, then I'd start with those two ROM's first. MiUi and CM7 are totally different, but both top dogs at what they do.

I'm sure he's going to respond considering it's been over a month..... Come on guys, this bumping crap is getting really old....
So far so good with my infuse running Dlev rom
Currently I am running the G2x Weapon ROM with the Faux kernel and i was looking to change up. Besides CM7 and maybe MIUI what ROMS would everybody either recommend or prefer??
Well this thread will get closed pretty fast as Rom choice is a matter of opinion.
In my experiences:
Weapon is the most stable with everything running the equivalent of stock with a few extras. I haven't tried EaglesBlood in a while or several others.
CM7 is CM7. MIUI is MIUI.
Whitehaux, the creator of Weapon, also ports MIUI. MIUI was my daily driver for a while and it works great but lacks WiFi Calling. The last MIUI build is wonky so I flipped back to CM7... and it is surprisingly working very well, but I'm having an issue with my Market downloading certain things.
Just depends on what you want. I would start with Eaglesblood and a few others. Then try Weapon. Then play with MIUI and CM7 and see which one you prefer to live with.
Stock and Stable or Wild and Crazy?
[EDIT]
Didn't see you were on Weapon already. I have to have toggles in my drop down menu. Going to a rom with no toggles is torture, but there is a sweet looking rom over where MIUI is that looks pretty slick. It lacks toggles though, so I won't flash it.
Weapon, MIUI, and CM7 are my 3 choices.
Yeah Weapon is really good. Hey Player, what turned you off MIUI?
CM7
/10char
The 10.21 build gave me hella problems. Restarts and random bootloops. I kept having to flash it over itself... then eventually my wifi errored out and when I tried turning it off... it would instantly reset. I flashed several miui versions and kernels but required a wipe to clear.
At that point I needed my phone so I flashed CM7 and just stuck with it.
All in all, miui was ported but no one really focuses on it to make things work. It gets updated to the latest weekly but nothing more. Slowly things broke and weren't fixed. The newer the rom the worse it got IMO.
However I flashed the same 10.21 version and same kernel from my SD to my friends and he said he hasn't had any issues. So I don't know. Maybe its my phone. CM7 isn't MIUI but I have an ICS theme which makes me happy.
There is a new dev solely focusing on MIUI for the G2x and fixing the bugs. So maybe ill switch back on day.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
I've been really, really pleased with the official 4.0.4 for the i9020T. Aside from a couple negligible bugs, it's pretty close to perfect.
Has anyone messed with a ROM that's actually better than this?
Nexus S i9020T
T-Mobile
you can try this:
CyberGRv10
Try CM
I loved using CyberGR, but decided to switch back to CM. Really enjoying CM9. It has the feeling of a more cohesive rom than CyberGR. For example. the specific settings are where you'd expect them to be, rather than searching through a bunch of developer created menus.
I liked the stock 4.04. Before this, I tried many MIUI versions (both original and modified versions like stuffed crustand rocket fueled), nuhetri reloaded, nexus beam...and so on...
For me, MIUI is getting closer to perfect, but the stock ICS seems more smooth and the responsiveness when opening apps is better. I'm also using Steve Garon's kernel with 1.1 GHz , daily.
The only thing I'm missing is the lack of toggles attatched to the notifications bar.
Thanks for the input, guys.
One concern I have is whether rooting and flashing another ROM will mess up future OTA updates.... since I'm like 95% happy with the stock 4.0.4 I'm not sure I wanna risk it....
There are other threads where you can find stock roms. Don't be affraid and try something new! Now I'm using elivisto's IMM76D.

check this post. it contains an accurate benchmark of the most famous ICS roms for NS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481856
the results are:
#1st place: Pixel ROM 1.72
#2nd place: CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v10 HYBRID
#3rd place: AOSP+ r3
#4th place: Stock ICS 4.0.4
#5th place: Brainmaster's stock 4.0.4
I myself use Pixel 1.72 and its the best I have ever tried. Coupled with Airkernel 3.9.5 BIGMEM, its very good

... especially the small ics is awesome
havnt tried out stock 4.0.4, but i gotta say, aokp is FLAWLESS.
I've tried Pete's Bugless Beast and CyberGR v10.
Both very good and enjoying my ICS experience! I felt Bugless Beast was snappier with menus and widgets. However, I feel like CyberGR was more customizable and the kernel that came with the mod supported BLN (I know I can flash a different kernel but I like to use the ones that developers give me since its how they optimized it).
I have yet to try CM9 but will in the future.
cm 9 with reloaded mod. It's very snappy and feels complete and is a daily driver.

Which rom is more stable atm? I know hellfire sandwich is based on cm9 source from arcee, who released his APLHA code.......apparently that alpha source code of his had fair amount of bugs (Although I am not sure how many of it is fixed/worked around in HFS, can someone compile a list of know issues for hellfire sandwich for me if that isnt too much work? )
According to EBICS, they had the rom built from aosp, isnt that supposed to be cleaner with less issues? On top of that, nvidia just released the tegra sdk i believe.....should we expect some major performance improvement/bug fixes in the near future for both of the rom?
what do you guys think?
First, nobodies going to give a list of what does and doesnt work, just read the last 5-10 pages of the thread, and the first post and youll get an idea of what does and does not work.
Second, HFS is simply a tweaked version of arcee's CM9 (with bugfixes and other things in there as well). EB-ICS is AOSP, that means it's source code is a HEAVILY modified version of stock android 4.0.4. (this does not include the things like RIL and other things that they borrowed from CM9 to get the rom working) EB-ICS may also have many of their own mods that bring alot of the customization and functionality of CM9 back, but it will not have most of the CM9 settings your used to.
Its honestly just up to opinion at this point. i cant tell you which is more stable, youll most likely have to try them out for yourself.
also, NVIDIA DID NOT RELEASE THE SOURCE CODE YET!
that was just a version for a tegra development kit, and we cannot use any part of it for our phones, because the chips are different.
Hope that helps
AWWWWWW!!!!
And thank you for your help
EaglesBlood felt like it was faster to me. I went from HFS 1.4 to the CM9 based EB to EB AOSP to HFS 1.6. I probably like EB more, but HFS has some tweaks that make it a slightly more enjoyable experience.
They're both great, though. As soon as a new build of EB is released, I'll go back to that and probably just hop back and forth between ROMs between builds.
+1 for Eaglesblood
I'm using Eaglesblood AOSP 5.5 and it is definitely more stable on my G2x than HFS 1.9 was. Hellfire Sandwich was not very responsive, and crashed and rebooted a lot (although at the time I had the old baseband). I would go with Eaglesblood hands down.
In my experience on my G2x, Eaglesblood ICS performs like ****. Hellfire Sandwich works great. EB always makes the phone unresponsive for a few minutes after I turn wireless on. I assume it's something to do with all the apps updating and syncing at once, but I never have this problem with HF. I have to reboot the phone at least once every 48 hours or the alarm clock stops working. I'll sit there and watch it pass the time it is supposed to go off and it doesn't (This has resulted in me missing an early morning class - NOT happy). Various apps crash more often on EB, and sometimes it seems as if the whole OS crashes, when the app disappears and the launcher is also gone.
My own personal experience, Hellfire anything over EGB anything. Whether ICS or GB.

From my personal experiences, I would have to suggest Temasek's GB ROM (build 135.1) for your GB Pleasures, and TonyP's ParanoidAndriod JB Flavored ICS Build 11, or Genesis ICS 8/1/12 Build. Both rock the ICS world.
I can't use any ICS build currently, as I depend on WiFi calling to be mostly stable for me, and I have found that only in the GB Roms at this time.
Its there a stable, clean ics rom for the g2x? Nothing themed and all that just stock style?
I've been using AOKP for a while now and have no complaints. It looks stock-ish.
They're all pretty stable and they're all pretty much clean until you start customizing stuff. EB is probably the most "clean," though. I don't remember it offering much, if any, options for customization. I'm currently a big fan of HFS, clean not dirty.

+1 HellFire Sandwich 1.7 Clean Version.
Stable. Stock.
No there is no such thing as ics according to lg. I mean there's only 699 threads regarding this...

Well...
I've been using the EaglesBlood ICS ROM and I like that one a lot. The creator said it was supposed to be close to stock but has a few extra features for better performance. There's also supposed to be an update to 4.0.4 today, and I've heard people say that the pre-release is very smooth and snappy. I would wait for the full release though, apparently the pre-release doesn't have working wifi... I would say get the 4.0.3 version until he comes out with the next.
But keep in mind that all ICS ROMs are still not completely stable and you will find some problems. I just find EaglesBlood to work well and HellFire is good too.
As I think you could probably find this out for yourself, by flashing them and creating backups like everyone else around here did, my choice is AOKP.
There's really no way to tell on your phone, though, as each phone is different. However, AOKP Milestone 5 is stable and amazing, with the stock kernel.
Eaglesblood 4.0.4 ASOP
Eaglesblood 4.0.4 ASOP is clean and awesome. The only issue I've run into is some WiFi calling glitches.
Minimal customization and code straight from Google.
Another Eaglesblood 4.0.4 ASOP user here and its worked well for me thus far. If you read through the threads for the different ROM's you'll find their users having similar experiences.
There are some known drawbacks to ICS on the G2x and thats more an LG issue that the Dev's here.
Backup your phone, then try them all out and pick your favorite. Worse case, you roll back to what you have now.
im currently running aokp milestone 5 and ive enjoyed it very much. havent tried out any other custom roms, but the control and customizations you get with aokp makes it a nice rom to try out. flashing process is pretty easy too
it's stable with a few known and documented bugs
