Which ROM ???

How do i choose a suited ROM for my desire S ?
There are so many.
It depends on the IMEI or something else ?
Also , whats a "prerooted" ROM ( different from "normal" ROM ? )
Grts

Answer to your last question: a pre-rooted ROM is a custom ROM which already provide root access. If you're unfamiliar to the term root, you should do a little more reading before flashing a custom rom to your device.

Just ensure that you've read through many of the threads available to anyone on this forum, and you'll have a smooth sailing through the seas of custom ROMs.
Your IMEI number doesn't matter.
Try Endymion, it's probably the best (personal opinion) Sense based ROM in the development section.

Loving my Desire S since rooting and flashing a custom ROM, like a new phone

Flinnys CM 11 alpha 3. Very fast and stable after my opinion. There are just some bugs with the camera(video) and bluetooth but check it out anyways.

Hello guys i didnt want to create a new thread.
My mother has a Desire S and is absolutely casual user, the only thing that is important is long battery life and that all features work (No ROMs with Camera bugs and so on pls)
She does not need Tablet Features and whatsoever.
Currently her phone runs MIUI 2.### which is a battery eater and quiet strange.
Do you have any ROM to suggest? Just a very stable, reliable Android with much battery life?
Thx for your help !

Hey guys!
Just got a second-hand Desire S.
I am looking for am advice about a custom ROM with Sense.
What is the highest version of Android with the highest version of Sense available? The best would be: Sense 5.5 with Kit-kat I think.
Any suggestions? Would like a "stable" version if possible.

Best custom rom for battery life?

I am looking for a custom rom that is good for battery life. I am currently using SlimKat and have been considering changing the rom to the PAC-MAN rom. Based on your guys opinion, out of all the custom roms, which is the best for battery life?

*Pulls string from magic conch* Dear magic conch, which ROM has the best battery life for Sony xperia L.
Magic conch: "Neither"
Lol jk, I don't think 'which one's the best' threads are allowed here. I would say use a custom kernel like thunderzap and phantom.

My question is

[Q] Pls suggest ROM

Got my shiny new Moto G which I am about to Root.
Can you pls suggest the best rom if the aim is 1) best battery life and 2) stability. ? Is stock rom the best for this or will you suggest a custom rom.
TIA

My model is xt1033. Also if custom kernel is the way to go on stock rom, then pls suggest the best custom kernel.

So far, I'm using stock rom until now, I love the battery usage, i got 8 hours screen on time with 20 hours of standby.
with faux123 kernel and faux clock app.
If you wanna try a custom rom, i suggest Paranoid Android
the performance and battery life was good!

@OP, there is no such thing as a "best ROM/kernel". Everyone has different opinions/needs. The only way to find what's best for you is to head over to the dev sections and try a few, then decide for yourself which you liked the most.

[Q] also sultan's 3.0 kernel rom also has Screen on Battery Drain problem?

also sultan's 3.0 kernel rom has Screen on Battery Drain problem?

No offence, but there is already another thread discussing the same topic ie which ROM/kernel combo do you use. You can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/201...-driver-rom-osprey-discussion-t3333513/page23
If you still want to know, I'm using official CyanogenMod 14.1 20161224 nightly with Optimus R19 kernel.

Oh, thanks, and sorry for that, I'm using Optimus r19 Kernel too but on Stock 6.0.1 optimised, can you tell me what's the best configuration for better battery life and performance? Thanks!

Best setup with large battery is_
Stock 6.0.1 optimized + Optimus R19 with optimus governor (1399 - 400)
Almost 2 days of battery and very smooth.
Cyanogen is fast as a shark but drains too much battery

Oh yeah. CyanogenMod drains battery like crazy when compared to stock. Using Optimus kernel the battery life improved significantly.

Do we really need ANOTHER thread for this topic that has no real answer? I am inclined to flag this for moderator closure...
There is no "best" ROM or kernel, each has it's strengths and weaknesses... Try them and find the combination you like best, every one is a trade-off for something.
