Hi guys I have gone from one ROM to another all professing to be the smoothest or most stable but all have left some what of a bitter taste in my mouth. My current ROM seems to be the most stable and have all the basic modcons working AndroidHD v1.0 | ICS
So I’m on a UK I9020 and I’m like preferably ICS over GB and main important points to consider for me would be
Battery Life, Stable, and Fast,
I am a bit of a power user but the ROM don’t have to have to many mods or sparkles just need something that doesn’t reboot at least twice a day and gives me battery life for 12 hours plus with fair use of apps and internet.
Please help at the end of my tether
yeah i'm in the same spot...i have been trying some ics roms and many claim "fast & stable & rock solid & butter smooth" etc
But they dont feel that way to me...i really like ics but i think its still slowish. GB is way faster.
Currently on codenameandroid 1.2.0 with matr1x 15.5 cfs
Come on guys don't all hide now lol, need your applied knowledge. Some one must have some thing they can recommend
try AndroidMe 1.1.0 not a single issue for me ,when on others ics roms i had fcs and reboots.
battery life around 16h with 3h of 3g and 3h screen on with brightness set at 68%.
CM 9 1.1 has been stable and brutally fast, better than stock IMHO. Only thing missing is FB sync.

Only thing thats kept me from CM roms is the worry that apps wont work with them, what sort of uptime do you get?
kangy v10 or AOKP milestone 3, damn good , with Matr1x kernel.
smooth , stable , battery friendly
im using the last cm9 kang with a bare boned(no mods added) trinity kernel, not a single stutter or speed bumbs. fast, stable, and everything works.
Now I'm using CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v.5 HYBRID+Matr1x 14.5CFS, well, as far as I can tell, it is quite stable and battery is not draining so fast.
Try some roms with AOSP tags, these roms have less modifications and mods, and maybe have a better better performance.

So far brain master's AOSP and cyberGR hybrid ICS have been the best for me... nice and stable and great battery life

just tried a few roms. sorry to say that the stock rom is the best, so far.
Stock is stable, but a bit slow. but the slow problem is same in other custom roms.
I don't have the problem of battery drain.
Downloading 4.0.4 rom ported from NS4G. Hope it fix the speed problem.
Don't want to use 2.3 anymore, though 2.3 is fast and stable
I tried these custom roms -
Mv 2.1.27, 2.1.28(cm9) lots of added features, but less stable than stock
Miui - although I am a Chinese, don't like this Chinese rom.
Slow. Don't know the cause. Rom still in alpha? Or wasting CPU power on beautiful ui?
Unfamiliar ui Is another problem. Not my cup of coffee

No reboots on stock kernel and CPU speed. Overall, I've found all ICS ROMs to be moe robust than gimgerbread, with very little issues.
Hello,
my Question: Is Someone using MIUI JB on DS? How about the battery life, stabilty and speed?
Sorry for my bad english
Hey!
I have used MIUI JB rom for a week! it's absolutly a very fast rom!
But i had the following issues:
Camera works 100% only on first boot some problems but after using it more than 3 times the issue is gone!
The battery life is terrible.after 8-9 hours sleep the battery drains about 25%! And on normal use it drains after like 2 - 3 hours!
3D games lag sometimes here and there! Temple run works fine and smooth!
And the best about this rom it's stunning fast! i compared the boottime between the iphone 4s (dual core) vs Htc desire s (one core)
Desire s was about 1 second slower. and against the iphone 4 12 seconds faster boot time!
I think you should try the rom first! maybe it works better on you're device if you'r lucky !
Actually the battery life is the most important for me
Which version do you use?

I use ICE DS v.6.0 Rom. It's a stock Htc Sense 3.6 with android version 4.0.4.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1567715
The rom is very Stable! i never had issues with this rom!
Battery is very good! i don't know how much it drains by night!
But after 7 hours studying in school! i looked at my phone and it just drained 4% . didn't use it!
But if you use it the battery drains pretty slow . It has actually a great battery life!
Gaming performance is good! i tested today the new Need For Speed Most Wanted. and it was Lag Free!
No camera issues! It's a very good rom voor daily usage/gaming/long battery life!
No Bugs/Freezes found so far!
This is probably the best rom i have and found so far!
I hope i gave you some good information!
And by the way sorry for my bad english
Don't Forget the thanks button!

are u sure about this??
i have used it for close to a month, but i wasnt very happy with it, though boot times are faster than stock, i found that it has its share of hiccups, i didnt like how the camera functioned, there was a bluish tinge to the photographs, some apps had a lot of lag and games particularly werent very smooth. also the gps didnt work at all so couldnt use the maps, which for me was a big let down as i use maps a lot. i think flashing a custom rom is overrated, unless u r a developer i think its pointless, i am happier with sense 3.6 and ics 4.03 stock rom of htc
the only reason i would ever root my phone again would be if i could find a pure stock android experience otherwise i wouldnt.

Pure stock android? You mean like cyanogenmod, aokp etc.? I'm running flinny's (andromadus) latest CM10 build, and find it extremely stable and far faster than anything with sense. And it's fully working, now the front cam is fixed.
i tried cm7.2 stable build and didnt really like it... cm9 and cm10 for desire s not available as yet, and i dont want to flash a nightly or experimental rom, im not a developer, im a noob,

Which rom offers the best battery lifetime for you? Speed is not the most important for me, I only play plague inc. sometimes. I only want a rom for daily use

I think the best rom that have good battery life is based on usage and configure of owner. I set some cpu governor, limited use 3G and have a battery life about 2 days.
ah, my rom is JellyTime.
I tried official MIUI V4 2.11.5 (ICS) i guess from the miui.com but got force close after installation. The site told that i need to S-OFF my phone is that true?
Unless you think that they are likely to be lying just for the fun of it, it is always best to follow any Devs guidelines when it comes to installing ROMs.
The problem is. I'm already at hboot 2.2x lolz and I don't know how exactly to downgrade and s-off. I read some thread that told me to downgrade using RUU. But dunno it will work or no. Also my device ia S510e Is that any difference with common desire s?

Hello,
at the moment i am using Jellytime. For now i am happy with this, but i think the battery life could be just better. So which rom from above offers you the best battery lifetime?
im using pacman.. the battery life is good.. i can use the phone the whole day(surfing, internet, texting, music...).. i always plug my phone in before going to bed, and i still have around 10% left

Using Pacman v18.0 at the moment and the battery life is not very good. Its usually dead by evening.

Me too. Battery life is very short using Pacman v18.0, at most 5 hours. The screen is the process that consumes more battery. Maybe it is only a my problem, but with Fallout v.5 I didn't have this problem (but others :laugh.
Well I find the battery life good on pure CM10.
If it wasnt for the graphics glitches when browsing, it'd be a really good ROM!
I have installed Pacman v18.0 about 3 days ago and am very impressed with the ROM. No problem with battery life but one major problem with the phone randomly going into Sim Lock mode. Could be after 5 minutes, could be after 5 hours and sometimes while just using it.
PACman, way to go.
I'm using Andromadus CM10.1 and battery is good...Overall is good except Bluetooth that doesn't work yet...

Mine has about an hours worth of battery...
For now I'm switching to my sense rom
On the latest build (build 10) of Andromadus 10.1 I found that the bluetooth was fixed!
Overall, at this time, I believe that the 3 andromadus ROMs are by far the best Jellybean effords!
Thank GOD I got here...
Could someone help me with rom that includes these features?
1. The official ics look (nexus ics)
2. That includes all apps like the sensed ics got. (fM radio,voice recorder,youtube etc)
3. My wifi doesnt turn on when i use any custom rom It just says "Turning on wifi" for the whole day.
4. The settings tab normal (not the tablet type like pacman got)
....
Thanks

some people prefer to UV their kernels. Some people don't prefer. Some kernels allow UV, some don't. see it all comes down to preference,of course UV also may cause performance to decrease. so it stills come down to preference.

It's just general deviation about the opportunities offered by kernels...

Hmm, when ppl say try it yourself, it simply means that u would have to flash the rom to know what's best for u.
Everyone uses his/her phone differently, so basicly there is no ideal rom that pleases everyone.
Everyone will you give a different opinion in terms of battery/speed/etc. That's why it is a bit pointless in asking what's the "best rom" for the other person when the usage is different.
So no point having second doubt and just flash the phone, try every single rom, i have flash from sense to cm to ics and now back to gb.
Go ahead and experiment the roms for yourself. Today someone might give u a suggestion, the next day a another. that's why it is consider pointless in asking such question as 'which is the best can u recommend me' and much better to try it for yourself instead of being shortchange in case there is another better than that is being suggested.

Does any one facing camera issue?
I tried installing many JB roms but camera lags in all while video recording.

Overclocking too high, to the point where data failures start to occur / major heat builds up and causes thermal throttling of the CPU - will cause instabilities, stuttering and lag. I'd guess that you're already at that point.

Not sure about the Frame rate...But the experience was good and I never felt that I should quit. I played almost all the games of Gameloft on my Stock ICS and GB..Was bit annoyed about Temple Run when I updated my phone through RUU..

Using reaper with un-touch oc. Seems okay to me, didnt experience any lag. But then again i dont play much of this games.
*didnt know aiming was so simple. Just needed to click the scope and it auto aims :silly:
Update: tried reducing OC a bit and actually did see an improvement, best speed seems to be between 1.2 and 1.3, not 1.5, I fell victim to placebo effect

Hi,
I'm using a Xperia J with Cyanogenmod 10.1(month ago installed) and the NeutronMP, because I have some 24 Bit/96kHz flacs, which only NeutronMP undestands them. The little better Quality is a reason too. But every time, when I'm using this, i get some heavy lags and most of the time listening to music isn't very nice.
Firstly, what's the reason for that? Too low CPU/RAM, low performance on sd card? Every time I've looked in task manager, it seems to be (relative) normal. In addition, i haven't got any performance hungry apps running in background.
Secondly, how can I reduce this? What would be most effective?
Thanks in advance,

Do you mean Neutron with "crappy audio engine"? I Haven't found a alternate player, so i can't choose.
I will install CM 10 later. Other things i could do?

EDIT: furthermore, i think "that crappy audio engine" is the reason, it can play all of my files.

I stuck with stock when I got my J, I did however flash a new kernel to allow me to overclock to 1.3ghz. Do a search for vengence kernel and flash that. Don't flash the newest one though, stick with v1.40 (later versions do not have oc facility)
You see, most people think OC actually speeds up their phone, well it doesn't. Only wastes battery, get CM 10 and use Riches Kernel or use my ROM if you want a stable and fast jellybean.
Of course overclocking speeds up the phone. You are increasing your CPU speed to the maximum that the hardware will allow. Yes there will be slightly less battery life, but that's a given. Its swings and roundabouts. Personally I find that there isn't a noticeable difference in mine (I still get 2 days on regular usage), but with the extra 300MHz I get from overclocking I no longer have the heavy lagging I had on the stock kernel. If there are no benefits from oc, how do you explain all the tests that prove you wrong?

Thanks for your ideas, i will test both versions. But i don't know really, what exact is too less.
EDIT: btw, I've installed CM 10, and it isn't really better. But anyway, i didn't thought it would change the world.

But it really doesn't matter, what of these versions I had installed, because they have all the same (bad) performance for my NeutronMP. Right?
If you wanted to stick with cm10, I think that Rom supports the vengeance kernel so you could get the best of both worlds

There are many more ways to improve a phone's performance
Install A Custom Rom,
Mods like Supercharger or Crossbreeder which benfit battery life
OCing is not bad but it is also not beneficiary for the device

My phone only is lagging, when I'm using NeutronMP, never with other apps. (I don't use other performance hungry apps like games, but anyway.)
I asked this, because I've had the same problems when I've used NeutronMP with the stock android.
@ all: thanks for your replies.
