It's "stable" not "stabled" and please search before you make threads about things that have already been answered

Do you guys just like telling people to search instead of just helping? If you stop and think about it these posts aren't what drives people away, it's the people that give answers like that all the time instead of just helping someone.

I am more than willing to help people, but it is a waste of time if the question has already been answered. We shouldn't have to repeat ourselves every time someone new comes on because they don't wanna search for the answers that have already been given. This is a forum, not a social network and we try to keep the threads clean from this needless clutter that makes it more difficult for people to find things because everybody wants to start a thread for every question they have instead of searching for the answers. Go look at some of the other threads and the stickies the moderators use, or better yet their sigs that clearly state "search before posting"

If it's a waste of time why even post about it telling them to search since youre just wasting more of your important time..
And you act like theres so much activity that on here that you would think people still wouldnt be able to search.

What I find so funny about these posts and especially about these posts in the sk4g forum...is that there are barely any roms to compare. Just do some research and like many others have said, learn to use the search button.
I'd reccomend anything developed by ayoteddy though. Glorious overdose and stainless touchwiz by undeadk9 are the best I've tried.

By the way, I use GenericGinger 2.0 on my SK4G, runs very smoothly, pretty fast and the battery life is good. You can google search it since I can't post links but I recommend it. Its been my first rom and my favorite, it never crashes and I get about 1700+ on quadrant standard.
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA

I've had the best experience so far with GingerClone V2. Fast and smooth, so count another vote from me! Apparently Glorious Overdose V2 is suppsed to be better but i had a few issues with it and ended up going back to GC v2. I just liked the blue theme on GO better than the green.. I've heard good things about generic ginger though so going to try that out now and I'll let you know how it goes..

Glorious Overdose V2 has been the best in my experience. The downloads in that thread don't work anymore though, so go here to download the ROM if you're interested.

GOv2 here is the most reliable rom i've found sofar for the much unloved SK4g.
An yes FFS use the search function in the forum for instance the captivate THS cm9 thread is over 500 pages long if you have a bug or something odd use the search function an you will find the answer 9.5-10 times Even searching in the forums saves you a massive amount of time an doesn't make you look a little on the lazy side for posting (whats XYZ on "insert phone here" ) I've had to use the search function so many times to figure out how to patch certain things or fix a botched flash. (ends Pintek rant for now)

gingerclonev2 for me mate, most stable,fast,smooth, good battery live,
quadrant - 1920/1960 contantly ...
quadrant (stock) -1220/1230
one of the best feutures is that support Outlook,full sync+push
I hope that is of any good use...
cheers

In my experience, most ROMs sacrifice stability for speed. I went back with stock KJ2 but rooted it and removed all of the bloat so that there was room for apps on internal memory.

I've tried 6 different roms for sidekick 4g, miui v3.0, glorious overdose v.2.0 glorious overdose v.5 senseis sidekick lightening rom and glorious overdose v.3.3 and by far, glorious overdose 3.3 is the best. Version 5 crashes too much with the sys phone force closing, v.2.0 contacts dissapear, but glorious overdose v3.3 is absolutly the best.

CM6 merged is great, fast smooth. I want to try out glorious overdose 5 but the links dont work.

which one do you recommand?

I can't speak for all of them as I haven't tried them all. But I can submit that there have been some ongoing crash issues with Gingerclone. I'm running Clean Fusion currently. Only things I've had an issue with is one background (that is just as likely an issue with the background), and no forming groups within your contact list, but otherwise is running great.
Touch is the next one I would try going by what little I've heard. Sorry I can't be of much help.
Really, you're best bet might be just to try them for yourself and see which one you like best, as they all look and run a little differently, though obviously much better than the stock ROM. Just make sure you get a full rooted backup before you use something, so you know you're not going to lose anything.
~ The guide Yogi and I put together has links to the main ROMs.. possibly not Lighting though.

I used. Lighting , ginger n touchmiui, I like touchmiui the best then lighting , btw ginger n touchmiui are the same rom just different colors blue vs green n theme differently

Don't listen to him. Everyone (almost) here are jerks. In my experience with the roms on here, I recommend you stay on stock with root. If you insist on a custom rom then I recommend probably GingerClone. Stock is the best thing for this phone for now. Anything else has to many issues after some time using them. No offense to the developers. They do what they can.

Lol i cant do everything i do in fact suck at kernels

Its been a while since MIUI was "started"... I totally forgot about it. :-/ This sgs4g is my first android phone so I have never used it, neither CM... but im enjoying what we have so anything that comes next its extra.

Question is, do you guys want a good solid working miui or a hacked together hardly usable pos miui? Things take time, and a lot of the additions I've seen coming out lately are all stepping stones. Hassling our devs isn't going to speed anything up.

Valhalla is pretty close to what you can do with CM. The real different is the t-mobile theme engine built in, and a few more tweaks. The only true benefit of cyanogenmod would be official support, so we would always be upgraded to the next OS. I'm not sure how CM9 will look though- it will be impressive no doubt.
Truth be told I do not know how they decide who gets official support. It is nice because you almost always have the latest OS before anyone. Then again, people tend to get bored with almost everything, if we had CM, we would probably still be switching to different roms. For example, I switched to Blandroid on my Nexus One because I would tired of CM. I switched back again, but you get my point.

This isn't going to end well, so lets nip it in the bud now. As is probably on all the forums there is no most/best/awesomemest etc. Its all subjective on what a person likes or dislikes does or doesn't do. I can say black ice, but the next person says AR, then the next says something else until you essentially have all the roms listed from the Dev section.

You don't even have to read a lot of posts, you read maybe one or two pages at the most and you'll find out, for instance absolution(the only Rom I use on my inspire) is extremely stable for me and is perfect for my needs but it may not be the same for you it may not work for you, you may prefer sense, so really its all personal preference. Threads like these get closed all the time because they're unnecessary since most of the roms in this forumare plenty stable except the ones that say they are betas and have things that don't work. There is that a good enough answer for you? Because that's exactly what that picture says. A picture is worth a thousand words.

I guess maybe you guys have more going on here with your roms then the epic touch community has atm.. there are probably 3 or four roms that ppl would agree on being the more stable and bug free roms....that may not be the case here, but like I said im out on vacation and was just hoping for a way to find something to fix my nieces phone before I head out home tomorrow. Either way I looks I'll just have do some searching of my own when I get back from the beach....best regards and sorry for being that guy to post a subjective question

Any better ROMS than Valhalla final?

Do not mean to be disrespectful its a great rom and I have been using it for many months... I'm just asking if there are any stable roms like Valhalla final but ICS and not gingerbread.
if its not too hard please post ur recommendations and explain what's good about that rom.
Thanx a bunch.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app

I would recommend trying them out start with cm9 for a few days. I love aokp personally with hefe kernel, there are so many little options to make the phone feel like it's yours. They all have little twists to them and the older more updated ones are more stable. If you haven't felt ics yet your in for a treat.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

I like barebones,its completely debloated and has the look and feel of stock gingerbread
I've tried all the other roms and yes with cm9 comes alot of customizations and neat tweaks.....but also they come with alot of bugs.
I miss the fun stuff but love everything working and love the touch wiz.

Nothing ICS that is as bug free as Valhalla final or black edition. The ICS roms are definitely all good enough for daily drivers, but the battery life is inconsistent to say the least and your going to have issues with voodoo sound still being partiality busted if that matters to you. I flash the new CM9 builds and ROM's based off of them when they come out to look for bugs and generally see first hand how the development is progressing but still using Valhalla black as a daily driver for the reasons I mentioned previously
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app

Since you are in GB and Valhalla is a stock-ish ROM, then I suggest Barebone or if you want some more theme and custonization then go for Valhalla Black either Raver or FB with Anton's Basic with a Twist kernel.
My pick is FB's Valhalla Black, but Barebone is awesome too. I'm just not a fan of stock.
ICS ROMs are all good. I use CM9 and AOKP, they all have bugs and some issues. Development is still ongoing. Yet, once you try it, it would be hard going back to a GB ROM.

the best rom is the one you feel is the best.. Seriously. Its not a omg this is the best rom ever made we all do different things different flavors .

This is BEST Answer. I know BUT I want to know another PROFESSIONAL OPINION as a beginer.

Some of the people that have responded are the developers, and all of the people have tried many (if not all) of the ROMs. In my humble opinion, that is as "professional" as it gets. The best advice here is to try them out and see which, if any, you personally feel drawn towards. You can always go back to the one you like best. Being a beginner can be scary, but read, read, read before you do anything, make backups, and follow the directions. It is very easy once you get into it.
Good luck! Oh, I like the AOKP best, so far, but I haven't tried Raver's ICS ROM yet. That's next on my list.

basically, raver is saying that everyone has their own opinion on what is the best rom. each person wants different things. you can't just ask people which is better. you just have to try out each and decide for yourself. so in other words, don't be lazy by asking people, check em out yourself.

"No" was simply the answer to the ops question. Unless he enjoys random reboots, sub-par battery life and lack of functionality then he should wait for a "final" ICS rom. Last time I checked there wasn't one.
