Welcome,
you were close.... the ROMs are here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1171
Im using SLIM BEAN 3.1 and it has everything you need for a ROM

.
Good luck

I prefer to use 4.2.1 roms since they offer the extra security settings for apk sideloading....and the quick settings brought with 4.2.0 are a very nice addition, imho, as well

Rom?

ICS Launcher by team syndicate

I found a great laucher that is very smooth and fast!! Works on my sgt P1000
Ics launcher by team syndicate
available in the play store.
And team syndicate's webpage: syndicateapps
Instead of fooling people into thinking you have ics, why not flash cm9 to your tab? Check your compatibility in the developers section and also cyanogenmod for nightlies. Currently my p1000 on verizon runs cm9 and it's way more functional than when it was running gingerbread.
im a noob!!

Try vipers from the from is so smooth and fast because of this reasons I am not buying the new onex phone

Look, There is no "best ROM"... What I think is the best ROM is the ROM that works best for me, but that doesnt mean that that ROM will work best for you because everyone uses their phone in different ways. My suggestion would be to try out a few ROMs then pick which you think is the best, not what anyone tells you is the best - its far too subjective for that sort of thing.
For me it's Viper S, although this question should not be asked. By making questions like this you don't show appreciatio for the devs work
Tnx

I'm just wondering..does the viper s has ota update..?
You are limiting yourself if you don't try out several different roms and see what's available, see what fits your need best. To find that out you must experience for yourself the different roms. Then and only then will you truly know what's your favorite. This is the fun part, the experiments. I hope you take my advice and try several before you make any decision. I wish you the best. Don't sell yourself short, try out many different roms, then decide which is best for your daily rom. Good luck and have fun!
Take time to read OP dude

Chill dude..i just rooted my phone..so far ive installed cyanogen 9.1 and dark sense...tnx for the advice anyway¦)
Hello guys, I kinda have the same question so I write here too.
I got this phone from few days and I first installed the cyanogenmod 10 (nightly build of 21 dec). I have to say that I really like it.
After that I saw that there are some mods (I think?) of the cyanogen, like codename Lungo.
Can somebody explain briefly the differences of these roms with the base cyanogenmod?

Try some non-sense rom with JB

official jelly bam 4.2.2

for those that dont know there is an official jelly bam rom for the hercules on gooim which would be compatable with the sr. im running it now on my hercules and its the smoothest 4.2.2 rom ive run. no real bugs that ive found in the 24hrs ive been using it.
Reason people might not know is because Jellybam ROMS are not allowed on XDA due to the original maker getting banned from here because he was/still uses PACman sources and tried passing it as his own. Look it up on the att Galaxy Note one forums and you'll see, or in the international S2 forums.

you should be able to use either version. if you use the herc version you will need the rotation fix or sr kernel.

it is the most customizable rom i have ever seen. other than that its closest to pacman. they are stable builds so very few minor bugs. and gapps are included so its a big file

Hey skinsfanbdh.. does the camera support touch to focus on the skyrocket? CM10 with JB 4.1.2 does not and I want that functionality so badly.

Thanks ... i did not Camera Zoom FX touch to focus on Jelly Bean rom. I thought the CM10 camera drivers compiled had the issue... so I assumed JellyBAM may have inherited that.
Has anyone tested this for sure. I did not want to pay and then regret it.

you can try to find a free camera apk that supports touch to focus on playstore or in the apps thread but i heard that camera zoom fx does and a lot of people on the herc thread suggest it.

You could try froyo
Open a Rom Thread , Check the Date + the last postings in the Thread and you got the answer. Most not update Rom Threads are after a few days on page 2/3/4 or where ever

You could try out Rastakat. There are updates every so often, but not to the point where you'll be flashing something every week.
Of course Slimkat updates stable once a month so it's not that frequent. And they are stable so you only update if you want try the new features

Froyo was nice but I'm a huge Gingerbread fan. It was like Froyo on steroids- faster, smoother, better battery life. My gingerbread GSII is still one of my all time favorite devices.

I wouldn't post this in any forum. You have to decide what's best by reading up on roms and see what features you like. A moderator will close this as they do not like people asking which rom is better. For the future I wouldn't post this again

Dude I told you once don't post things like this. Your liable to get in trouble

As noted by others, we generally close these threads. Why? Because there is no best; every ROM is different, and we ask that users take the time to learn and read about what they are doing, so they know what to expect (and what problems may arise). OP, do yourself a favor.. look through some of the more popular threads, and see what feedback the users are giving; look for bugs that may effect you or your favorite apps, and go from there.
