What is the best ROM and kernel for galaxy wonder ? Stable, Good for everyday use ?
And also what is the best tweaks for it

REMIX AOKP for me. It is smooth and stable but the battery does not last as long as GB roms.

I would suggest arco's CM9 and for tweaks I guess the modded kernel for it would be a good tweak. Its quite stable and very nice to work with.

agreed, but it will surely be better w/ V6.
Also, I think MIUI + V6 will be a good choice.

Well the additions with V6 is nice but I don't think its really needed since when running CM9 its smoother and faster than when it was on GB also games don't lag much either.

Do i need to flash stock ICS ROM in order to install custom ICS ROM ? And what is the best kernel with a lot of tweaks and stable?

There is no stock ICS rom. You have to install CWM recovery with ODIN and then install the ICS rom you want with that recovery

CM9 based ROM is still considered W.I.P, even most of the functions are working, but it may not be as stable as GB
If you wish to try a ICS looks GB ROM, which may be more stable, there are a few:

Actually I found it even if is still in Alpha its stable and smoother than the GB custom ROMs and alot of the problems in the past like poor battery life isn't there in its current build.

From my view, stable is when i could hand over my phone to someone who is not experienced with phones and tech in general, so i would have a good feeling.
Thats not the case with CM9 atm - White Screen Bug, Bluetooth partially working, Camera sometimes crashes, battery life - all problems that may be irrelevant to experienced users, but we should keep a neutral definition to the word "stable".
Currently it is Alpha, and i guess that is what a manufacturer would also call it, if it would be an official ROM.
Besides this terminology, arco has really done great work with CM9, and he is pushing development further with good common sense i think.

That's a brilliant piece and I thoroughly agree!!

Yea, I also agreed that CM9 is a good job, but since he/she mentioned newbie in the title so I think GB may be a less problematic choice at this moment, myself wish to use CM9 too, but I don't really have time for switching and updating ROM frequently

Personally i use MUTANT ROM, good battery life, rather smooth and stable. If you prefer a GB ROM, i would recommend this.
BTW, how is the ICS ROM going? Is the battery life still unstable? The last time i use ParanoidAndroid, the battery was like... 30% drop in 5hours of standby... GOSH...

Black Notes Last Page, it's working well but just:
i) After executing the SuperCharger V6 script, I may not receive the incoming messages, but I guess I may have to play with the setting a bit, anyway I seldom run that script, so it don't really affect me a lot
ii) If I open too much pages in the Opera Mobile, it may freeze for a few minutes, but I think it may be the Opera Mobile's problem
iii)In a few buttons(such as Save & Cancel button for the alarm clock setting), both the background & word are dark in colour, so it is not really well visible
And I had answered ansyori28, sgaheer, bladez87 and your question yesterday, really sorry for replying so late, for you question, I think it should be okay if it didn't force close after you fixed(changed) the permission to rw-r--r-- and reboot
How about Mutant ROM, any issues inside it?

[Q] Best ROM?????

just a simple question what ROM should i flash.
Which is the best one.
I'd think blacknotes because it has eveything on it.
But Optimized Kezra V4 Final seems good because its claimed no lagg and stuff.
Hi
I am new to the whole rom flashing concept. However after trying all the galaxy w roms in the development section I reached a conclusion that the best rom around is stock rom. U just have to root, add busybox and then apply v6 supercharger and you will have a very stable and responsive device. All other roms had me facing some issue or another.
At least until arco finishes our cm9

It seems that the Cow Bionic rom have highest score from antutu
Are you sure???
What about using new kernel with stock ROM.
....And when you flash a new ROM can you just only restore Data in CWM to get my apps back. i dont want to use titanium back up because its annoying i have alot of apps.
cow rom is the best. most stable. I've tried all the others.
Just so i'm clear.
The roms are pretty stable until I add arabic support. After that I get force close bugs almost 3 times a day. It might be the arabic patch I am using. Anyway after that I went back to stock for UAE and with v6 super charger it's great. I hope to be able to use one of the roms cos I really liked bionic cow 2. But until someone makes it pre set with arabic read/write i'm gonna stick with stock
I also would like to pay respect to all MODers out there. I know they put lots of effort in making the roms and I don't want anyone to think that I don't respect them

how long does the battery last??? 9hrs
Let me share my experience..
I hope it will help.
- I use kezra ROM for my first custom rom and it's work well for me but it's quite laggy when I play hd game.
- And then COW bionic ROM is available. So I try it (non OC version ). Result: it's work perfectly for my daily use.. it's little bit laggy if for HD game but I didn't play much anyway so I use this ROM for quite long until
- hybrid 2nd generation is available. So I decide to try this new ROM.
this ROM is awesome. I didn't get laggy at all when I am play hd game. But unlucky, I encounter many FC if I use it quite a while without restart it.
- alpha 1 for CM9 is available. So try it.. camera didn't work but I didn't care about it.. it's awesome.. very smooth and also didn't laggy for hd game. But I got APN problem and I can't find the solution at that moment. So I m back to COW Bionic ROM.
- and then arco find APN problem solution. So I try it again. And it work perfectly. And I am use it until now (alpha3). So if camera issue is not major issue for you, i do recommend this awesome ROM.
Or just try spent your time to find your soulmate ROM. Life is a choice anyway. ^.^

for me normal use, it can last 17~19hours
i think bionic cow 7 v2 it's a stable rom..
currently using FAW rom..for me its the best rom compare to others (IMO)
previously im using hybrid, bionic rom v2 oso kezra v4..
all are great in normal usage..but when come to HD games such as shadowgun, asphalt 6 and others, my previous custom rom tend to cause laggy in the game..and sometime when it become so lag..suddenly it will restart by its self..
but im really glad that there are so many developers out there trying their best for the BEST rom..
and im here..always ready to try it!!thanks you all!!

Just a comment. FAW ROM is using stock XXLM8 kernel while others are using Cow kernel. So far, XXLM8/DXLM3 kernel gives better visual performance.
For England Value Pack
is there a rom for the value pack STOCK only.
Because i want just the stock rom because is good.
Where is the rom if there is one?????
i loved it
excellent yar good job.. keep it up...

i don't know if there was a stock value pack just for England region at the moment, but i suggest you to check it on this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654643
or, you can search it on sammobile, on its firmware section (just goog it).
and also, AFAIK the value pack for europe region started from series xxlm6 and above (please CMIIW guys, )
and related with the topic of this thread, i think the bionic V2 still the best GB custom ROM for this device (IMO).
really stable and had many alternatives, such as choosing OC or non-OC kernel, smooth/fast performance, or turn on/off the zram with cow panel. All of that features are really innovative, because it give more options for the user to determine their best setting.

is it better than FAW rom in performance ??
And can u tell me how many hours you had with the FAW rom if you play graphic-intense games ??

which rom to choose?

i was deciding whether to flash to jokawild or gin2ics rom.
which one will be better in terms of stability and gaming experience? thanks and all opinions are appreciated!
I haven't tried any of them (yet), but how could you be sure without trying them both yourself? WOULD YOU TRUST US?!
I personally prefer PlayOSP by KeiranFTW, but it is ICS. I heard TrueAnchestor was nice too. But it's your choice, you'll have to try them.

no.
I have not yet tried TrueAncestor but in my opinion Gin2Ics if you want a smooth stable experience. For me it is the best GB rom I've seen. It looks exactly like ICS and has many features from the Xperia S implemented, such as messaging, phone, contacts, browser etc.. It's bloatware free and comes with only the bare essentials you need. The internal memory is ridiculous around 300 mb free! (If I remember correctly) It really is phenomenal, fast smooth, stable, good looking, and it has amazing battery life. Best of all the creator Vokal1992 updates the ROM very frequently any bugs found are sorted out in practically no time at all. Try it? What have you got to lose backup your phone now and if you don't like it then just restore.
Hope I've been of any help

Opinion on ROMs!

I have tested many CM7.2 ROMs, custom ROMs, and could not find one that I can use every day without lag, hang-ups, crashes and many other things that annoy every single Android user.
My question is, what's the best CM7.2 ROM(since it's the fastest out here)? I mean everyday using, without freezes, crashes, etc.
I've searched the forum and didn't find a thread that could help me taking in consideration just a single one ROM.
I have to recognize, in this moment my mind is blown by the amount of ROMs available.
And why not? Let's keep this thread alive for every new member! I've seen that a lot of people own this phone and they want the best of it!
(I would help the developers, but unfortunately I should start from 0 with the programming)
And sorry for the missing 'o', after 2 days I've seen

Thank you, sir!
Well, I have tested CM7.2-RC3-Kang with 1.0.2 u235 kernel(from squadzone), CM7.2 Nigthly(the most recent build 20/09/2012),CM7.2 Democracy, and now, I have DroidGio v2.3(about 6-7 hours) and it does the job pretty good.
I think somebody said that he would release an official release of CM7.2(or stable) for Galaxy Gio, that would be very interesting and cool.
What about Stock ROM with Tweaks and/or Scripts? Is it possible to obtain a decent combination for everyday use?

Marcin's CM7.2 have some annoying bugs but it performs very well.
I don't want to install a unknown ROM like the Cyanmobile, it gives us no information about it.
I will test it when I have time(currently studying hard, really ).
Anyway, thank you guys for every single one opinion.

Marcin's CM7.2 not working on my phone for some reason.
I use Link2SD so after it re-mounts the script for sd-ext I must reboot the phone. After second reboot, everything is fine, restoring some apps than reeboting again and from this step everything goes black after the Samsung initial logo and it stays black.
I don't know if the rom is the problem, or my way to reuse Link2SD and some backed up apps.
Now I'm back on Phiexz CM7.2 wich is flawless in every aspect. It's pretty smooth, I've got many apps including large games for my princess and still have 50.Mb left on internal memory. Everything is working fine, battery life is no worst, no better than other cases I've seen.

Have u tried Democracy and Apocalypse. Plzz tell me how would u rate these two Roms. I myself is very confused about choosing the Roms......
choosing rom is related to your needs. If you want good look you can use MIUI roms, if you want more stable you should use gingerbread based roms. I tried democracy and it was good, but at one point you decide to change... I don't know why...
I suggest MIUI... simply WOW
Yes, MIUI by Frankin96 is very good.
Droidgio 2.3 is the most stable rom i've tried so far. It seems that Droidgio is abandoned though.

I´m confused with so many ROMS based in CM10
Which one is better?
the one by benjamyn?
the one by modpunk?
the nightlies by dudeman?
Which has more possibilities of support for the future?
Please, advise

I think they're basically the same.
I've been using the first one for a day, and it seems like everything is working, but there are some smoother ICS roms out there.
Until those Roms are stable for daily use, I'd recommend using CM9.
Since my last comment here I tried both benjamyn and modpunk's CM10, and I didn't notice any difference (same speed, stability, features, etc.), so choose whatever you want.

They are as stable as the CM9.

Thanks buddy will try it
The best one if the one you like the best. Even if that means stock.
Okay this is what I think.
Omega - Super good for themeing. Kinda heavy for a normal user
ARHD - Very close to stock. One of the best roms for me. Never had any issue with this.
monxdified - Honestly, this is one hell of a rom. Very good and slim. Didn't expect it to work well but heck, it does! No problem and highly recommended.
HyperNote - if you like a superb slim rom, this is the one for you. No bloatware. All all to you.
Crash - Too early to say. Still in testing phrase for me.
If you ask me, here's my rating.
ARHD = monxDIFIED > Omega > HyperNote > Crash
But, don't take my word completely! Try it out or something

On the latest builds some S-Pen functionality has been included (don't know how much though). I think they are including the wacom digitizer drivers on the kernel/rom. The stylus is functional, you loose functionality related to TW. And there's some apps that you can use instead of Samsungs, like Papyrus instead of S-Note (which is 10 times smaller btw). We'll see how it evolves, maybe in a couple of months there will be new ways of using the stylus implemented on those roms that you can't use with Samsung stock roms.

Omega - Super good for themeing. Kinda heavy for a normal user
ARHD - Very close to stock. One of the best roms for me. Never had any issue with this.
monxdified - Honestly, this is one hell of a rom. Very good and slim. Didn't expect it to work well but heck, it does! No problem and highly recommended.
HyperNote - if you like a superb slim rom, this is the one for you. No bloatware. All all to you.
Crash - Too early to say. Still in testing phrase for me.
If you ask me, here's my rating.
ARHD = monxDIFIED > Omega > HyperNote > Crash
But, don't take my word completely! Try it out or something

first of all, I think this is an excellent idea to gauge other users opinion. I have been using ARHD, and I think it is excellent. I would like to use a very slim ROM which focuses on best phone reception, leaving plenty of memory to watch movies/play games/or emails. Talking of movies, it would be nice to use ext4 format for sd card and permanently setting internal/external sd card. Anyone, advise.
Ive heard that battery life on stock rom is much more better than on all custom roms...

Hey guys I recommend the new rom from Crash v3.1 its beautifully themed,super fast and have a new cool mod that when you're on the lock screen and touch it with you're finger you see the blue ink on the screen,remember that build LJ2 4.1.2 is a leaked base and have bugs,the only roms that I have tested and worked perfect was WanamLite v1.5 ,Android Revolution HD v4.2 and Omega v6.1 because they use LJ3 or LJA 4.1.1 oficial base, hope this helps

Reading all the good reviews, I dont see a thing that I will gain installing any custom Rom and the best of best is still STOCK.
Hats off to Samsung.. no doubt hiring Steve (Cyanogen) is paying off well.
Right now I am rooted, have CWM touch recovery installed and only installed Multi App mod, waiting for a really temting rom to arrive.
There are great great hard works from developers and will have to wait some more days to enjoy best of custom roms which are evolving..till them Stock rom is perfect!!!

Have you tried Android Revolution HD? Its a stock rom with better performance and battery life,no visual changes or other mods.
Try version 4.2, dont flash 5.0, its based on the new leak and have some bugs.

If u want stock look ARHD is the best version 4.2,in aroma gives you the option to flash stock or Perseus ver. 26.1, go with Perseus better performance and battery life.
Some phones faced bugs and some didn't - weird. But, this also happens when you use any ROM and you're 100% sure you flashed correctly. I had no problems with ARHD 5. With monxDIFIED (my current test for the last 5 days) I used it for over 2 days without recharging and I still had about 26% battery. GPS, WI-FI etc. were on all the time. Using No-Frills CPU control to hit both top and bottom end (although top end only allows 1.6GHz, whereas with ARHD5, it allowed 1.8GHz(?))
There's a lot to be said about flashing and wiping et al.
I don really like CM stuff for my NoteII.
