For a stable ROM I'd use stock JVT & Semaphore kernel (bigmem version if you don't need the highest video recording resolution).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeraj15:
I've been on stock jvt with semaphore kernel for about 3 weeks now and it's not really stable. I get crashes which lead to the phone switching off by itself, games such as fruit ninja lag and sometimes the phone itself is laggy. Memory management is also an issue as always.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] V_N:
This is a great discussion! I've got a friend with an Optus (Australia) branded Galaxy S who is complaining about how slow it is and I would like to install a nice stable ROM for him as he isn't particularly technical. Looks like CyanogenMod has got a good backing so maybe I'll give that a go.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oceangreen:
You'll never look back after flashing it...:p

Blazing fast n stable...:D

Simplicity 1.5.1(XXJVT) with Semaphore kernel

Pretty solid no reboots no fc's for last 4 days..very happy
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bigtroger:
I need a ROM or a kernel for games like Gameloft (9mm Fast5 ect).What are u recommend for me?:confused: Now i use stock JVt rooted and i hawe lag.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Тhe Dark Knight:
my choice is darky jvt
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mundano:
CM7 is really snappy and probably the most stable ROM out there. And with the help of ROM Manager it is really easy to maintain and upgrade after the initial flash..

BUT (there is always a but)... If you use 3G data the battery drains really fast, maybe twice as fast than a stock ROM, and that is a major problem to many users..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] skuzy:
how does cm7 work? do u have to keep reflashing with the nightly releases?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Sidneymac:
Try Tornado .. Best rom ever, and ive tried everything ... None can be compared to tornado
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oceangreen:
Nah. Flash cm7.1 stable will do...^^

How is the battery life on cyanogen these days? Im on an older version of MIUI that has been great with the exception of the battery life.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bigtroger:
Thx for help. Now i test CM7 and after few days I will give u feedback about my experience.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oceangreen:
Very good!

Moderate use lasts about 5x hrs...:)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mundano:
It's a mixed bag... In regular use it's on par, or even better than Samung ROM's.. But as soon as you start using the 3G data it drains at an incredible pace...

You want a stable rom? Try milkys rom! trust me its the best.

Can someone link me to the stable cm7 which everyone is talking about please?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scull2011:
You do know cm7 does not have all the features of other roms. ?

I got fooled into flashing it only to find had completly wasted my time because I needed tv out and cm7 does not have tv out.

And Also that little kid Faryaab has also produced some superb roms,

i loved F2 v6, version 7 has lots of lag and bugs but am desperately waiting for his V8 and also F1 v12

HOpefully those two will be the best ones
[Galaxy S I9000 General] m3t30r:
I'm on this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1058814 rom, and is happy with it. Playing NFS shift seems better, lesser black out ( which need to press home button and press on game icon to continue playing ). So far so good.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] asder00:
I'm on F1 v13 and it is very fast and stable (even more than darky)....

The fastest rom i've tried is MIUI (mintberry edition) but those roms based on cm7 suffer browser lag and i hate it (because of no-gpu acceleration)....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kal-El25:
I've tried few ROM's and each one seemed to be facing issues that somewhat bothered me. Haven't applied MIUI due to it's poor battery life that I've read of. Today I flashed a combo of Doctorz Rom v9 and Semaphore Kernel 1.8.2 and.... so far so good :) From experience I can tell you that the most stables ROM's are the ones that are close to stock builds.

This thread is useless. Everybody here will say, that the best rom is the one it's using it right now. So all roms are the best for someone. Even the worst ones :)

If we are honest, there are only 3 different roms: Samsung, CM and MIUI. The difference is just in themes.

Are there any current roms with the charging 'feature' fixed? (Batt doesn't stay near 100% once charged and left plugged in) and also the media scanning bug with aac/mp4 files not getting metadata scanned properly ?

In the meantime I've been back on darky 9.5. Loving it but there's always the upgrade itch ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pikachu01:
The metadata bug is fixed in one of the latest (not sure which) ROMs from what I've heard. Battery charging bug, not yet in any Gingerbread SGS ROMs.

just stripped to the bone

with some minor changes, like kernel, big apn list, host file, newer swype, ... READ the ROM features and try it first before... ;)

Its pretty good!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Zhengod:
Most Roms are stable as long as you flash the base ROM (the firmware its based on ) and then flash the ROM zip you should be fine after that
[Galaxy S I9000 General] kalletin:
MIUI is the best i've used. CM7 was quite good but stuck sometimes at startup (-->reinstall rom)

Have you heard about SoD?? It happens only on CM and now on the ICS build9 as it's closer to Cm as ever:( I also think that the original Sammy' roms are the most stable. Yesterday I have flashed PDA:WJW1/PHONE:JVT/CSC:JV9 from that thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20289040#post20289040 with no mods or any dev' changes. I came from ICS build 9 which is having SoD's and other bugs looking for a STABLE rom and no regret! It's super stable with small battery consumption but the most important thing for me is that GPS IS FINALLY WORKING THE WAY IT SHOULD!!! I am testing it since yesterday driving around I've never had stable GPS on any other rom! And let me tell you that I think also that GPS was always better on an original ROM from Sammy and I am affraid that devs will loose it somewhere in their mods But for the moment I am anjoying stable, fast and accurate fix on my GPS which is very important for me. Didn't also notice any bugs so far but I am running it for just 1 day.

It's basically the same thing you may have seen in the leaked bootanimation, except in the form of a livewallpaper, with settings available to change the FPS (up to 60!), and the viewing aspect...

I must say, that it's even more impressive as a LWP, than just as a bootie...

Anyway, enjoy:

That would completely run the phone lol. Let's take a sleek, thin CURVED phone and add another 1/4 inch to the thickness and add more weight to it for a keyboard. None the less its a huge huge screen. Plenty room for anyone to work the on screen keyboard just fine :p

[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
Honestly i hope it has LTE even if i dont have it cause if I'm signing a 2 year contract after a year I'm sure ill want lte. :rolleyes:

But if not then i guess Wimax would be ok.....

I would probably only use 3g anyway as i very limited 4g here and never in the areas here where it is at.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
Unless you're in a major city, by the time the contract expires you probably won't have LTE available. I, however, already have decent WiMax coverage... and want to keep using it.

[Epic 4G General] kenfly:
More proof that sprint to get WiMax

After some rigerous Google searching, I have recovered a few new facts,

Tom Fleming "poetically" announced there will be a wimax variant. Check below link about half way. He also hints at a QWERTY version as well.

http://www.techtikka.com/2011/09/20/nexus-prime-poetically-encrypted/

Also found out that there are 5 distinct models of the nexus prime. GT-I9250, GT-I9250T, GT-I9250M, SC-04D, and SCH-I515. Sources suggest the GT-I9250 will go to AT&T, while the GT-I9250T will likely go to T-Mobile. There’s not been any confirmation about the GT-I9250M or the SC-04D, but it seems like a Sprint version and an international version would be all that’s needed to tie this release up in a nice global package. SC-04D is likely for Japan since their model numbers for Galaxy S and SII have been like SC-02c something like that.
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:

[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Tell that to LG, Motorola, and HTC. All the companies are being hypocrites and not backing up what they committed to. If they really wanted to stick to what they said then all of their Android devices, including the mid and low level ones should be getting ics. Instead devices like the G2x, Droid X2, and Sensation are on the fence.
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
Motorola I trust implicitly. They've demonstrated a commitment to updating their phones. Look at the original Droid, it launched in December 09 with 2.0, and got all the way to 2.2.2 in March '11 before it was EOL'ed.

The Droid X was released before our phones, May 11, with 2.1, and got 2.2 and 2.3 in this May. Heck, it got Froyo when our phones were released!

HTC has an okay history. They upgraded the EVO to Gingerbread "promptly", but they threw the Hero under the bus.

LG... they haven't been around very long so there's no history there. But their phones are mostly AOSP, so it would be pretty easy to update them. They released the 2X in Dec 2010 and updated it to Gingerbread in July 2011. Even if they didn't update, LG is the best at keeping their phones AOSP. All the stuff they add is either apps or skins. No Touchwiz, Motoblur, or Sense messing with AOSP.

Samsung is the one that has no history updating their phones. The Moment was released in Nov 2009, then in May 2010, only 6 months later, 2.1 was released and then it was cut off. Our phone was launched without even the latest update. That should've been the first red flag.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Really Motorola? You trust them? Hahaha then you have been deceived.
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
Bootloader unlocking is a completely different topic.

However, they have done a sufficiently good job on keeping their phones up-to-date for 1-1.5 years.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
No they haven't. Motorola cliq, Motorola Droid X, Droid 2, Droid X2, Motorola Droid pro. Cliq never received an update, the rest took forever and a day to get gingerbread. Not to mention none of them are getting ics
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Or how about how the photon or the atrix might not get ics either. Still not confirmed.

Hey , Korey ... can U check with WDM ( whoever that is ;) ) to update us on the latest regarding WHEN we MIGHT get Gingerbread ? :) and WHEN we might get Nexus on Sprint :)
[Epic 4G General] Migital Warfare:
It all comes down to preference. If you like TW, stick with it, so long as you don't expect Samsung to be quick with the updates. The biggest problem with TW, though, is the speed at which it gets updated (and for how long). That's why the OP was saying he'd rather have various phone models, but all treated like a Nexus phone.
