Try CM 7.2 or CM9(It has few bugs). Visit here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618904

maniac103 from 25.04
For me best is Maniacs from 25.04. Supercharged with v6. Plays games smooth and without any lag.

cm9.....

without flash support for now (hwa), there is no way to play some games that use flash, think that CM9 is not so good to play many games and without a2sd the intern storage is nothing for big games.
Defy mit Android 4.0.4 CM9 RockZ

Supercharged!
Definitely look into v6 supercharger. Makes a great difference
Thread-xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
Cm7.2 @ 1100ghz
V6 Supercharged, nitro lag, and soon to try kickass kernelizer and 3G Turbo charger.

Because of the controversy and arguments they inevitably generate, "best ROM" threads are prohibited on XDA. Thread closed.

MIUI 4.0 for Defy MB525 ?

Hey,
MIUI 4.0 available for DEFY MB 525 ?
If available then anyone please update link this thread.
Regards,
Cheat.
Since MIUI depends heavily on CM sources, I don't think there will be an MIUI for defy before CM9 release. It might take some time.

MIUI 4.0 has been released for nexus recently. Defy ROM may come in future and yes it depends on CM team's success.
Wajk has ported MIUI v4 to the Defy. See the first post in the WIUI thread.
It isn't released as per today but Wajk has written "Next Week" as the release date
He has also posted a video of that ROM. Seems quite stable.

DISCUSSION ABOUT ROM FOR DAILY USE (Most Stable and Smooth)

Many people using Android handset confused about making decision on which rom they will be using for daily activities...
Gio, as middle devices, has gotten upgrade from Froyo to Gingerbread, and the ported developed ICS rom still seems pretty difficult to be used for daily activity coz the problems of camera, video acceleration, and else...
But overall, even the ICS has excellent performance, still cannot wait for the more excellent release! (major dev: Macław #Work Hard!)

CM9 has been very smooth for me. I use it daily. But I'm starting to experience random freezes in beta 8. Thinking about switching back to beta 7
Adrenaline rom is great in every aspect.

Beta 8 isn't particularly stable for me. Even though it is very smooth, it has random crashes and freezes for me along with many other bugs.
Adrenaline ROM 2nd Edition
it's pretty stable and the best part is if you manage to configure it well you can make it really smooth and with battery lasting for 1 day and half...
you can say its too low but considering to the use i give to it is awesome
i tried almost all the roms, kernels, and configs for Gio but seems i've finaly managed one that fits my style, lots of battery without any lag at all
If you interested in more details say something )
You can finde more details in general... opened a thread with full details

All ics roms for vivow have some issues. The question is do you want sense or aosp?
UKB is probably the best sense rom out right now. Sense 4, android 4.0.3. Smooth, fast, excellent battery. Camera fcs a lot for some.
For aosp, you have Kangdemnation or an older version of PA. PA is moving on to JB, but I think version 1.9.5 is ics.
Most of the problems are camera related, but many have been fixed. BT is another area of concern/ongoing development. Sound issues, too.
Search through the threads for these issues before you ask a question. Most of these threads are quite large.

If you don't feel the need for Ice Cream Sandwich, I use Cyanogenmod 7.2 stable for my "old reliable" It's much faster than stock, better battery life, and everything works 100% for me. Just my 2 cents.
I'm pretty much a rookie myself, and wanted the most stable ics rom I could get. The UKB looked great, but I decided to try tazz's ic rom first. It sounds like it should be stable too. I just flashed it earlier today, so haven't had much time with it yet, but so far it looks great. It sucks as much as everyone in that thread promised.
In my experience, Tazz's ROM is probably the number one out there right now. Granted, you're stuck with Sense but there are some devs out there stripping Sense away from this ROM and another one. Everything works out of the box (including camera which is huge for me), but like I mentioned, you're stuck with Sense and I've personally moved to Paranoid Android 1.5a which has CM9 as a base. Works pretty great, although my ffc pictures often show up corrupt/glitchy/garbled. Now to make more posts so I can have the privilege of commenting about this bug...

If u r on cdma then use UKB X, if on gsm use IC Tazz. Both the roms are very gud. I faced bootloop in gsm with UKB X and V.
otherwise ukb is better.
So I guess this shows my noobness, I'm wanting to root my wife's incredible 2 and not sure if she has cdma or gsm. How do I know/find out?
What's your carrier
Is it Verizon? If it is then its cdma.

My wife is about as rookie as they get. I put her on IC-Tazz.

LOL yeah, that was an entertaining and informative thread!
I just stuck to the Aeroevan's CM9 07/12 build with v12 kernel (pretty outdated, but I don't use the phone anymore) and gave it to my mother. So far, she's loving it to the point where she's completely oblivious to the world when she's using an app.
I woild definitely recommend Aero's CM9 build if you want a speedy rom with mostly everything working (720p recording doesn't work sadly)
But if you want an extremely stable ROM, then go for Tazz/Mac's IC Tazz ROM and have fun with the suckiness of the ROM. XD
I woukd also recommend Nit's UKB just because it's a treat and its packed with lots of Sense 4.0 goodies.

Apparently I've gone flashing-crazy (I blame upgrading to TB Pro :laugh: ) and have also tried UKB V and can now recommend it too as rookie-safe. The only problem is I'm having so much fun trying out new roms, I'm now finding myself searching for other roms to play with...

Thank you. Have you tried this kernel yet? In your opinion is this the best kernel for CM9 and our device or are you using JB like most of everyone else?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
no offense, but it takes about 30 seconds to flash a kernel. Why don't you try a few and see which one works the best for you? Everyone's experience is going to be slightly different.
I flashed two different kernels before picking one, and after that I added some init.d scripts afterward that improved battery life over the stock kernel settings.

I would rather have stability than bleeding-edge any day! Contrary to my claim for the need of stability, I am going to give MIUI a shot. I tried it out when I had my G2x but there were some bugs that made that rom unusable as a dd for me. Hopefully my experience with MIUI will be much more pleasant with the S2!!
I'll flash the kernel later and see what happens. Even though I'll be giving MIUI a test run.... I always end up going back to Cyanogenmod. Always!

When I was running MIUI my only problem was not being able to shut off the capacitive lights. I had no problems with bootloops or anything of that sort.
I get bootloops and/or camera crashes with the latest JB MIUI and horrible call quality on my end with the last ICS based MIUI. It's odd that the call quality is fixed with the JB MIUI and busted in ICS, should be the other way around lol.

I tried out some roms but none you mentioned in your OP. I found that HenseMod 7 is pretty responsive. Or just run a stock rom with an OC kernel (which is what I'm doing).
As for GBA emulator, gameboid is stable and small in size.
