Hello Folks,
my Samsung Galaxy S broke last week and I need a new phone! I tried a lot of roms on that phone and was very pleased with the variety of customization and flashs for it. The MIUI Rom was by far the best one I tried (GB and ICS), i really love the smooth and intuitive OS and that's why I want a phone that fully supports MIUI V5 and by that I mean it should work for daily use, work fluently and stable!
It's not necessary that it's an official MIUI V5 Rom, it should just be stable, as already said.
I'm pretty open for every brand or model, I would prefer if the performance was better than the Galaxy S, since I want a snappy phone!
Thanks in advance!

Then I would order a phone from China. MIUI is not respected here nor is the company that produces it.

Hi all,
I just recently got a gTablet and is wondering if anyone can suggest a ROM based on Froyo that would meet my needs. I first tried out GtabComb and some Gingerbread based ROMS but I find them sluggish when browsing, so I want to give Froyo ROM a try.
I'm basically just looking for a Froyo ROM that is stable, fast, smooth, and has good battery life. No fancy features needed.
Thanks for the help.

I have been on Roebeet's Froyo 2.2 TNT Lite 4.4 since I got my GTab. I consider his work Gospel. For me, it offered the best stability out there of all Roms, Gingerbread and Honeycomb included. I couldn't be more happy with his Rom. Although he retired it, information can still be found on this site. Good luck!
I personally like Calkulin+Clemsyn 1.5ghz Froyo Combo VER 6 (needs 1.2bootloader).
Hello All!
I am a Nexus S user who was gifted the tab plus a few months ago. Having used the Nexus S for well over a year, I really hate Samsung's Touch Wiz interface (Naturally!). I love everything about the device except for the UI.
Is there any stable AOSP ROM for the tab plus out there? I don't care if it’s even ginger bread as long as it has the default android UI! I have been searching the forums, none of the ROMs seems to be even at the RC Level. Please suggest.

If stable is your main concern, update your 7+ to stock ics. Then change the launcher to nova/apex, those launchers are very similar to the stock launcher, with more custom setting.
Or if you like very aosp, try the new cm10 06/09 bulid from aorth. I use that as my daily driver.

Thanks. I tried dw launcher, it had improved things a bit. But I guess CM10 is what I really need. Will try it shortly.
Hello,
What are your thoughts about MIUI ROM's ? Why they are not popular? Well they look great, are they buggy or performance is much worse? Battery life? I think they are popular in asia or wherever east of the world?
Is there any good MIUI roms around? Thank you!
Nothing is wrong with Miui...it's been one of my favorite ROMs all on my devices. For some reason...it doesn't get a lot of support on the HOX. I tried the version on this phone but Google Voice does not work and I need it to work. Try it out...very smooth and fun to use...as long you don't need Google voice

MIUI used to be my daily driver. The reason I liked it so much was because it had the smoothness of jelly bean, but then the Sense JB came out and I'll admit I love that camera.
Hello everybody,
I know there are several questions about what rom to choose, but I'm still not sure which one I should take.
My sm-g930f is still stock with almost latest updates. But I am experiencing big performance issues compared to when I bought it some years ago.
I'd like to have a stable (best) performing rom, it is really important for me that it's fast because I experienced big lags while using Android Auto.
I don't care if it's touchwiz based or stock android, it's just gotta be really fast and stable.
Thanks for any help!
Greetings-
Been seriously considering dumping my stock ROM (TMobile G930TUVS8CRL1 on a Verizon S7 flat) and trying a custom ROM. I've done so a ton of times on other phones, but never on one with a locked bootloader. I've also read that custom ROMs on the S7 are laggy compared to stock, and since my current stock rom is already laggy, I don't want to go backwards. But since this otherwise decent device won't be getting Pie via traditional means, a custom ROM would be my only pathway to a slice of Pie anyway.
So... all that said... has anyone any performance stories of stock vs custom ROM on our aging S7's?
In my limited experience, no, stock ROM almost always feels slower.
My SM-G930W8 (Non-edge Canadian S7) has been through two ROMs.
My first ROM was Resurrection Remix (Android 8.1) and it was extremely fast, stable, and snappy. The main dealbreaker was the apps being too basic and lack of certain features.
I reverted back to Stock after using RR for around 1 month and used stock for a while until it started slowing down again.
My current ROM is Pixel Experience (Android 9) and I am very happy with it. It is fast, snappy, has the right amount of features, and is very stable. It does have its own set of minor problems but they don't bother me.
I posted a full list of pros and cons on the forum for the ROM (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79108754&postcount=174).

In my opinion, Pixel Experience is millions of times better and efficient than the Stock ROM. If you are not too deep in Samsung's ecosystem of apps that are not on the play store, you will not be losing much.

I sincerely thank you for your input. But, alas, mine is the Snapdragon variant that has been left to languish in the depths of the dark, musty hallways of neglected and bootloader locked devices.
