[Q] Best Stable room for battery and performance - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am searching for the best stable Combo rom & kernel
I am not searching the lastest version of Android I could run ICS or JB 4.1 but I need the most stable one for battery & performance
I am running Carbon Rom with Marmite 8.7 bigmem on android 4.2.2 but I am note happy with it !
I am ordering the new nexus 7 for the next month so I am not very interested in running the last version of android.

Oxygen 2.3.2 and Matr1x 11. Hands down.

CM10 stable + latest Marmite [later than 8.7 ] with stock settings [any other settings made it worse ] works very well for me,makes the device snappy again with enough free RAM for some basic multitasking. Couldn't ask for more from a 3 year old device

4.3 aosp rom !

Ultimate ICS v2 and Glados Kernel 2.3, so far no problems, really smooth.
ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363765
Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336529
Most likely I'll switch for Cyanogen Mod, once Beta/RC are available, though.
I am on Stock ICS4.0.3 + kernel 3.0.13 = better battery and bluetooth
ICY+S 3.1 with Galdos 2.3
Sent from my Full Android on Crespo using XDA App
NexusBeam v4.1.0 + GLaDOS V2.3
Stock ICS 4.0.3 + Kernel 3.0.13
I am on AOSP+ V1.2|ICS 4.0.3 and GlaDOS 2.4
Stock ICS with GLados 2.3 Stable as hell
PixelRom 1.01 (stock ICS) + kernel 3.1.6 by eugene373
Stable and smooth.
I am on CM9 Alfa 18 with Matr1x v13.
With GladDOS 2.4 I had a lot of reboots, 2.5 seems stable.
But with Matr1x v13 there is less battery drain.
I'm still on :
ROM : CyberGR-Mod ver4.
Kernel : Franco (8 Dec) Kernel
Really smooth & super stable Gingerbread rom with a super kernel of Franco's.
I would wait until ICS is stable enough & many customization on the UI been made.
Cm9 alpha 18 on stock kernel.. Its the best IMO. I've tried GLaDOS too but it had frequent reboots or sod.
Nexus bream will be a close second to cm9

take GlaDOS 2.5 and no longer you will have reboots.
Stock 4.0.3 + GLaDOS 2.5
Nexus MV 1.12.09
default kernel Franco 2.6.35.14
waiting fo ICS to last a full days work before using it as daily driver....

Fast, stable and a very good battery life.
Stock GB 2.3.7 with stock kernel.
I've tried every ICS ROM around here, including the OTA, but none of them had a good battery life. At least not like GB. I'm getting 2 - 2.5 days with moderate use.

What's the best ICS custom rom for speed/stability?

I'm currently running a Neapolitan ICS rom that came out a few months ago and I've been having a lot of stability/speed issues with it. Lookign to flash a new ROM but there are so many to choose from.. any suggestion? Most important things to be are stability and speed.. I don't care too much about a fancy feature set.
Thanks in advance
Im running Drew Garens Orca ROM, with matr1x 15.5 and i love it! Very stable

any ics rom now would be better than neapolitan since its using a hacked up gingerbread kernel. so i wouldnt even consider it truly ics since its not using a 3.0.8+ kernel.
I use bixie rom v.1.0.0 with matr1x kernel v.16 - It's really fast stable and smooth. Battery life is also good (just need to tweak some settings).
u can see a review about this combo on nexusshacks website
cheers
I use CyberGr V7. It's awesome.
Stable, Fast, stable and incredible battery. Lot of options and functions.
One word GREAT.
I am currently using CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ver. 7.0 Hybrid ICS, it crashes from time to time but for the most part is working fine! I would also remond the CyanogenMod 9 v4.0.3 v2.1 it has less custom features but its only getting better!
PV!
Check out kangs roms (AOKP). There getting lots of positive feedback
Sent from my Nexus S
Cm9 very fast,stable, you can tweak cpu governors,sounds and colors directly in the rom settings
Cyanogenmod 9 v2.1
Cyanogenmod 9 v2.1 runs very stable on my phone! I would definitely recommend it for stable daily use!
Bigxie Crespo Apex v1.02...brilliant. Was on NexusBeam before which was excellent too, But Bigxie ROm has lots of nice features, facebook sync etc.
Never had a reboot with either unless using a different oc'd kernel, So off the shelf Bigxie Crespo Apex v1.02 it is. rock solid. loving it. Don't like the boot graphic so flashed the stock one and its just perfect
CM9 Kang for the win
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
CM9 Nightly Kang (Build 1 of v2.1)
Eugene's Kernel (Speedy-7)
OC 1100/100 (conservative)
I recommend CyberGRv7 ICS rom. It runs beauty on my nexus s!!

Best rom for nexus s

hello
what's the best kernel?
what's the best rom ICS for this devise?
Regards
Hard to say which ROM is the best because they all have their pluses and minuses. Same can be said for kernels; each kernel will perform differently according to which ROM you choose. I'd suggest reading through the ROM ops and selecting the one you like based on features and theme. Once you've found a ROM you like, flash several different kernels to find one that is most compatible (also doesn't hurt to read kernel ops as well for feature details). This process, although a little more time consuming, will likely give you better results than relying on the objective opinion of others. Also, bedalas compiled some awesome reference guides on on rom and kernel performance that's a must read for anyone looking to get the most out of their device
You without me is like Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes
ok i understand your point of view
but
wicth do you recomend ?
kernel and rom ?
I prefer cm9, stock kernel.
plenty of other options though.... get experimenting is the advice, find out for yourself which one you like.
till date, CM9 with stock kernel is smoothest Rom. But it not fastest (based on benchmarking scores).
I am running nuhetri's v 3.0.1 with AirKernel (with voodoo colors), and running awesome!!
CM9 and CNA ROM + matr1x kernel
or
Bugleast Beast + Thalamus kernel

Yep. for me CM9 +trinity kernels or Bugless beast with thalamus kernel
Is this cm9 that is the best rom with matrix kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399035
Running the 4.0.3 OTA on i9020a (with all the fun radio experimentation to make it work) and AirKernel 3.45. Runs beautifully.
Cm9 + matrix

AOKP / Milestone. And Air Kernel has been the best for me
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
AOKP (Build 28)
Air Kernel (3.45)
OC 800/100 (Lionheart)
Live OC (100 - Noop)

AOKP. Hands down.

I quite liked pixel-rom and cyberg v9 but right now im on nuhetris 3.0.1 because of the battery-life...
I also prefer matr1x kernel! It has the best performance/battery ratio imho!
But as stated before: try for yourself!
sent while eating an ice cream sandwich in the matr1x
I flash roms therefore i am!
As someone mentioned,get experimenting,because you know better than us what suits you the best.Me as flashoholic I tried many and so far for me the best is CM9 and MIUI.Atm I´m running MIUI4 with T132 muenchhausen and it is really great.In the matter of kernel I like Trinity´s T132 muenchhausen and the Matr1x kernels and CM stock ones.CM9 also comes with great kernel which is running pretty smooth.If you like to try GB rom than I would recommend CM7,MIUI 2.3.7c,Oxygen.I runned MIUI with Trinity´s 1,5GHz kernel and it was rocket..But it is on you to decide what suits you the most.Don´t worry and try it is awesome to dicover new roms Happy hunting.

Nexus xperia 1.0.1 4.0.3 full release!
Nexus xperia 1.0.1 4.0.3 full release!
fast stable great menu and awesome colors , i try all the roms and i stay with this for 2 days ...
I tried CNA + Air Kernel.. but battery life was suffering.. currently trying out Pixel Rom 1.6 Fully Touched.. seems decent, is giving decent battery backup.. and i liked the Notification toggles also..

most stable ICS

What rom is the most stable?ICS 4.0
On IcySnap i have freez when i run camera :/
Try oxygen ics.No freezes here.
Oxygen 3.0 and Hehappy's Lastkiss ROM
Oxygen ROM (both Gingerbread and ICS version) is a minimalist, not far from naked Android, just a few tweaks, but lightning fast as compared to others(especially ICS and up)
I think I can't say Hephappy's Last Kiss would be better than Oxygen ICS in speed (including gaming), so, choice is up to you. Either gaming, either feature ROMs.

How is Battery Backup of OXYGEN rom ????
Most of ICS build runs with most system apps running in background & lead to drain battery a lot.. :X Any Solution /
I feel oxygen has more battery drain. But it's very stable with very few bugs. This rom is aosp based.
Icysnap by neko95 is a Gud stable rom. Also the battery life is Gud. And of course this rom too has few bugs like random reboot etc. This rom is based on cm9. Try both the roms and choose the one.
There is another rom called lastkiss by hephappy. This rom is the base for Icysnap. This rom is the 1st one to get all the ics bugs fixed like the omx drivers. It works great with the caf kernel. Try this too. This is based on cm9.

[Q] CM 9.1 or 10

which is best for gaming cm 9.1 or 10.0 Stable
please review nw am running oxygen based on 7.2 stable its good when its comes to gaming but Gb rom doesnt support Chrome and many other apps so am looking for ICS or JB rom which is good in terms of gaming like temle run bith 1 and 2 and subwaysurfer
please reply
Sent From Somewhere In The Streets Of INDIA.
JellyBean Always beats ics in gaming, since it has progect butter, which helps in smoothness. So go with CM10
Press thanks if I helped
thanks
will try cm 10 Stable
Suggest you install Marmite kernel (v7.2 Custom IO Control) on top of CM10.0 for better stability.
