Just wondering what the advantage is of all these AOSP Roms available in the developer section?
Are these better for the developers or the users?
I ask because it seems these ROMs dont support things like the dock, asus keyboard, don't have those nice Asus apps or google apps.
I know I can flash gapps but no idea about the rest..
I flashed an AOSP a while ago and found so many things just didnt work so I avoid them now...
It would be good if they could mention in the title if their ROM is AOSP or not.
Maybe I got this all wrong and you're welcome to educate me

AOSP is from android. its the cleanest possible rom u can ever find. its like a fish u just caught and cooked with just a pinch of salt only. probably u wont experience lag and alot of bloatware taken off. asus apps abd google apps you have to dl urself. i find that troublesome too. HAHA! using a custom rom is different tho. that depends on how the dev develop it. if ur happy with stock then stick with it man.

I would say stick with custom stock at the moment like revolver or frozn but that's just my preference after trying the aosp roms.
Some like aosp better but for me I will wait awhile until there completely stable before I give them a decent try.

Ok well not so much stability now I guess but bugs there is still a difference I just feel aosp on the transformer is a bit to young on my gt540 I love aosp its rock solid works and has awesome customization's etc
Like I said maybe after some time but for now I say stock custom is best

I used Asus' official ICS for about 15 minutes before I decided it was ugly and thrown together quickly.. also comes with a bunch of Asus garbage files in the system partition and a bunch of crappy apps i never use.
I tried EOS and was happy. Now at build #21 its fast, its stable, its got some nice customizations but is otherwise bone stock AOSP ICS, like a Nexus device has.
I also tried AOKP and while I could prefer it in the long run as it is a very slick ROM, but it just doesnt seem as snappy and smooth as EOS at this time.

Does EOS still have the minor lag when scrolling home screens? It's barely perceivable but enough to annoy someone like me. The build I tried was 18 or 19.

I was dissatisfied with CM9. The one that I have been using most has been Android Revolution HD 3.1.0 (GPS locks quick, WiFi stable, dock works). Just recently I have dropped FROZN on my TF101 but have been unable to successfully transfer my APK's to it using APK Batch Installer During the process I receive a segmentation fault. So far it has been only with that ROM that I have had this issue with. Aside from that FROZN ROM is fast!! Can't say much about battery life seeing how I just started using it.

Also I'm using last revolution HD with msticninja'kernel and it's very very stable and fast but it's also my first cooked rom (I just bought my TF101 a month ago). Why are you dissatisfied with CM9? Frozn is faster than CM9 and revolution?

These custom ROMS vary in benchmarks but there really is no perceivable difference in speed with normal usage. They are all faster and more optimized than the stock Asus ICS.
I have been running the HFS rom since v1, and for the most part it's been very nice. However, I was saddened to learn today that the dev will not be working on the g2x anymore. I know there are a few other ICS roms available, but I do not know a whole lot about them as I've mostly been in the HFS forum. If this dev does in fact leave, which ROM would you recommend for replacement (ICS only plz) and why? (highlights and lowlights to be aware of??)
Thanks!! (hopefully this information will help out a lot of people)
I could be wrong but didn't the HellFire ROMs come from the Phoenix Blood ROMs? If they did then they took queues from EaglesBlood. That would be the one I would recommend. I am currently on a Gingerbread MIUI ROM but anytime I want to used a CM based ROM I always go with EaglesBlood because it has always seemed really stable and gets good battery life. The dev also is quick to respond and does his best to fix any problems. Just as an FYI there are 2 versions of EaglesBlood ICS:
This one is based off of the AOSP source code Here
This one is based off of the CyanogenMod CM9 source Here
Hope this helps!
I doubt hell is going to end his rom. All the cm9 based ROMs are about the same. AOKP is pretty nice. I like the clean and bare bones AOSP thing that eagle's blood has going on. Really these are just toys for now tho.

i've used pretty much all the ICS roms on here and by far the best have been Genesis and HFS
I'm not sure if I like Domination or HFS better because I haven't used HFS since 1.7 and I've been on Domination for quite sometime now. I'll be on HFS once the next update comes out. HFS has always been a favorite of mine, but Owain's ROM tempted me over and I've been on it since.
Genesis is really cool, but I prefer the CM9 power widget over the AOKP one.
I actually haven't tried EB since build 1. Maybe if I get bored, I'll switch to it again sometime, but I'm pretty happy with Domination and HFS.
In my opinion you just have to use some roms and find which fits your feel the best. I've went through maybe 3-4 ICS roms before finally sticking with ASOP 4.0.4 EaglesBlood for the (in my opinion) battery life and performance.
My phone loves Domination by Owain94, all others seem to not agree with mine so just try all of them and see what she likes

been using it for 2 months, just flashed build 5, still not laggy. best ics rom ive used for g2x
until there is a rom that EVERYTHING is fully functional, i'll pass on ICS for right now.
hey, i have been running an ics rom for a while. Its been super laggy and i havnt had time to flash a new one. My reason for making this post is to ask whether or not the ics roms are stable and fast, or should i just use cm7 if im looking for a fast rom with great features. thankyou in advance.
There are different builds of ICS, like nightly and AOKP. You just gotta try and the different ones and see which ones you like best. Changing ROMs is all about preferences and what you feel comfortable with.

After using Slim for the past few months, I would not go back to a non-ICS ROM (this ROM will probably influence my choice of the next phone I buy, i.e. I will make sure it's available on that device).
While I agree the SlimICS is very quick and runs fairly smoothly, it does lack in other departments. In order to have a slimmer and smother build they had to cut certain things. The main thing I noticed is not all languages are supported.
SlimICS has been the best experience of the ICS roms, or any rom for me. It's very fast, stable, and feature packed. I've had zero problems through the two different builds I've been using for the last week. I highly recommend it.

Thanks guys. I'm currently running cm7 again. But it sounds like I should definitely try the slim rom.

SlimICS is definitely worth the time investment to get it installed and running. I came from Cognition 4.5.x and my phone is running better than it ever has using any previous ROM I've tried (and I tried a lot of them!). Granted, my IMEI paid the ultimate price for using all those different ROMs (EFS folder wiped/corrupted), but I'll have that sorted out soon enough with any luck.
Can't say enough about Slim though, granted I didn't care for the Lightening launcher that's included. I am using the standard ICS launcher, which works fine and is plenty fast for me.
SlimICS or Nostalgia (SlimICS based) - runs faster than S3.
But I'm rooting my S3. So boajuicing comes...
Give AOKP a shot. I'm running it and love it.

I find that the CM9 ROM I use isn't always the fastest but the features pretty much balance it out when compared with Gingerbread.
ICS is fast and sleek, but I'll choose GB KK4 for the meantime until they fix the unsuccessful encryption bug on ICS. Still waiting though :silly:
I've never liked GB but then again, I didn't give it that much of a chance. I was extremely satisfied with di11igaf's Rom [2.2.1] on my Captivate, flashed to stock GB, then flashed immediately back.
Currently running TiramiSlim RC 2.0 [Based on SlimICS 3.9] after being somewhat of a crazy flash-aholic as far as ICS Roms are concerned. It is super-fast & extremely smooth.

what is your most favourite rom where a majority of the features work? aside from the core functionality, i guess i'm primarily needing the wifi+data+camera to all work properly. will hdmi ever work on any rom?
anyway, please name some roms that you particularly like as i'm late to the triumph party and would like some suggestions. thanks.

FROYO
Right now the most exciting ROM is the Sharp Froyo ROM by Bsydz - Everything works as far as I know, I think he also fixed the voice mail issue
http://androidforums.com/triumph-al...ed-sharp-2-2-2-triumph-updated-6-27-12-a.html
CM7
g60 style - final - This is a great ROM there is a few bugs but most users love this ROM as it's Gingerbread, HDMI does not work. There is also a handful of variants of the this ROM people have themed. The newest one, that is being built from source code is StarShip by chairshot215.
CM9
There is Mantera's CM9 which is a solid rom, however no Camera or HDMI. There is also AOKP by rukin5197 again no Camera or HDMI I have not installed that but I hear lots of cool features not offered on CM9.
G60 style is by far the best ROM as far as I'm concerned.
I am not a big fan of Froyo, but the Sharp ROM is smooth and everything works.
The CM9 stuff is pretty cool but not as fast or stable and the camera doesn't work.
If you want Ice Cream Sandwich, try the G60 style ROM with Holo launcher and the Cynocream theme. That's what I am running and the only difference I see is that there aren't widgets in the app drawer. Other than that, it is pretty much a complete ICS experience.
G60, I was going to post this in the Development forum, but apparently I am not allowed. I am also getting random reboots on your ROM. It never gets to the point of boot looping but it does reboot a couple of times a day. I also have been restoring all my apps and some app data with titanium backup. I will probably try reflashing and not using TB at some point to see if that works. I will let you know what I find. In the meantime, thanks for the awesome ROM! It made me happy to have this phone for the first time!

While I am a fan of Titanium I have found as I moved from g60 version to g60 version I started having more problems. Finally on my journey I recommend everyone do full wipes and dalvik. Then reload apps from Play Store. That always seems to put the issue to bed, it sucks because it's a lengthy process but that is a sure fire way to kill all problems.
Right now we have only 3 supported ROMs.
There are some others, but development has bees stopped, developers left or just putting things all hold.
The good news all ROMs are fully working! Well, almost.
1. Sharp ROM - almost Stock with a few goodies like fully working GPS and Tethering
2. CM7 g60 - as close as it can get to CM7 with all CM goodies minus HDMI and slow GPS. No updates but it is in progress, developers are here, still working, still coding.
3. StarShip - everything CM7 has + theme + few nice tweaks, frequent updates.
Yeah, the Sharp ROM is a port from the Sharp SH8188u. It is fully functional now with Ver6, just has 2 quick fixes that have to be done after you install the ROM. Other than that it is one of the fastest and smoothest options we have.
I was running G60's CM7 before I got the Sharp ROM working. It was very nice.
There are a few options out there but you just have to find what suits you and what you can live with and what you can't.
My current favorite is the CM7 Tickerguy Reloaded 3-25 FINAL! The g60 has some kind of wierd 360 launcher in chinese! The launcher and extra stuff does slow it down! I am currently in development for the Motorola Triumph! I have a new ROM that is called the GingerMOD. I will be tweaking the CM7 Tickerguy ROM!
As for FROYO: DON'T PICK FROYO! ITS SLOW AND BATTERY LIFE STINKS!
And there are no ICS ROMS out there with working camera yet sorry

Good ROM and a Side Note
Yeah, Starship is awesome! I highly reccommend it currently, as it has more of g60's tweaks (A GPS tweak, to be specific), than cm7-g60style even currently has in its stable form. The good news is that sometime in the future there will be a stable (not RC!) CM7 with rewritten device files, so a lot of the issues will be gone!
Beta ROMs
The latest beta mtdev.us release is great for me, at least. Although not everything is working yet, everything is smoother and much more stable. Also, no random reboots after about a week of usage (including leaving the phone on overnight several times). It's rock solid! :good:

I have been using first Helly bean as my first JB ROM. Though it was claimed that it was fast, I never realized the speed. The UI/bowser/almost every think was lagging. Next I tried CM10 the same story... first it feels fast by as time progress the same lag.
Today I installed LANIGHT. It is really fast.... unbelievably fast. I didn't know android on cappy can be this fast.
What other ROMs do you guys use are equally or better?
I'm giving it a look now.
I use Helly Bean and it is very fast with some slight lag when changing between apps, I imagine due to the apps using resources. App drawer and launcher are smooth.
My only issue is the datadata folder, only 172MB and it fills up right away. Even clearing cache and uninstalling the biggest apps, more stuff just comes in and takes up that free space.
May have to try a non datadata ROM but a user in the Lanight thread said the no datadata ROMs use 430MB partitions but they fill up even faster, so I'm not sure what my best option is for speed.

That was me... :cyclops:
Anyway... I can concur with the speed of this rom (LANight v2). I was a long time TeamNyx ICS RC5 user and I wanted a little change. Debated and decided to try CM10... what a mistake (no offense to anyone... expecially the CM team). I know it is still in development but my experience was not good at all. I spent a whole 3 hours or so trying to figure out a way to make it work but nothing... it was not usable. I blamed the lag on the no datadata that the CM10 uses... so... back to an ICS rom. CM9 which uses datadata was wonderful... and stable... but reading through the LANight threads... I had to try. so with a lot of hesitation, I loaded the no datadata version... and I was so surprised!!! compared to CM10 and other roms with datadata fixes... it was flying!
Until I realized it's limitations that is... Like I said on the other thread, it seems that eventhough you start out with a larger partition, the fact that now everything is stored here (app & data) Vs. just the passing by data on datadata roms, it sort of defeats the purpose of having the larger space.
Anyway, I still am not dissapointed at the rom. I think the dev has done a fantastic job! It's just since not having datadata doesn't offer any greater freedom to load apps on these devices, I think I will keep this for a while and maybe try LANight's datadata rom. Because this one, flies in comparison to CM10... (but I notice some minor lag here and there)... I think if this one is this good, I have hopes that the datadata version would be even smoother...
Please let me know if this assumption is accurate...

I am using CM10 Nightly. When I first flashed it, it was real laggy. But I just reflashed it, and it works really well. Very fast, and as far as I can tell, its very stable. Maybe try flashing CM10 twice ? That's what worked for me anyway.
Any CM10 based ROM post about 9/13 has become SUPER fast, and just recently this last week all of them started using the LV setup for /data allowing about 3 times as much space for data with no sacrifice in snappiness.
very impressive. IMO the Captivate with these roms runs faster than a stock SGS 2, with touchwiz cluttering crap up.
i am newly using slimbean and like it alot except for a camera issue. (where is it) ucam for now. i tired jellyui miui awhile back but despite the beautiful black sexiness it was laggy for me. I am curious why there is so many different experiences with similar setups around here. same fone same rom different battery life... etc etc...

Exactly my thoughts. Helly lagged on my cappy but Slimbean really is impressive.

Im in the edge of switching from CM9 to some JB Rom, But Im still a bit insecure about it, cause I like stable versions, This phone is the only one I have, and I don't like to be dealing with bugs and major issues, So Can anyone really using this phone with Helly Bean or Slimbean, tell me how stable is? BTW This Roms are official stable versions? or they are still at testing level?
Slim bean . Awesome ROM and so far quite stable. No guarantee tho.

I haven't tried the recent helly's but i can confirm slim bean and lanight are both super snappy. Lanight has less features and just like every other ROM I've flashed since 2010 is buggy but has workarounds.
Use AceofSpades90's X-bean port in my opinion its better than his LANight Rom. Now im just waiting for v2 to come out Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863927

Thanks for the suggestion, and yeah, I've been reading a lot of good things about that ROM, of course some people with issues too... I'm not that expert about flashing roms yet, but I suppose while I keep my nandroid backups I can go back if I screw something up, thanks to Odin too...
I can't post in SlimBean Post because of my few posts (Just entering to this new world of Captivate and Flashing), and I read something about the need to flash a Modem for SlimBean, or that, SlimBean takes the modem of the current rom you are using, and since I'm using CM9, Will I need to flash a modem or SlimBean should automatically use the one I have now? I don't even know what modem I'm using :S
I hope not to bother you guys, and Thanks in advance!
Helly Bean has been a real trooper for me. I've updated it to nearly every version that has come out.

Meh, just download the ROM from the thread, follow the instructions. Modems can be downloaded herehttp://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html. Just flash the modem after you flash the ROM of your choice. Let the ROM load and then in recovery, flash modem like you would a ROM or a kernel. Profit from jb goodness. Personally, I'm diggin the AOSP ROM's ATM because of the speeeeeeed

Slim bean spontaneously reboots into recovery
Hi, I wish I could ask about this in the developer's thread, but I have no rights there. So, maybe some can shed some light: I installed Slim Bean 2.6 a few days ago, doing Heimdall to stock and using CM10 as a stopgap rom to get bootloaders. Everything installed fine and works great except one thing: the phone spontaneously reboots into recovery. Sometimes once a day, sometimes twice an hour. It is a problem because one in recovery it just sits there, eats battery and waits for me, so if the phone is in the pocket, I am missing calls, emails and etc. Any suggestions where I could dig a bit to find the cause?
