I'm gonna go ahead and say these dev's that are workin on these roms are like genius . Most devs would leave such an old phone bc of its old hardware (including cyanogen lol) but other devs make the best out of what they have and that's pretty sick . So its pretty safe to say you guys have the best of the business workin for your device
[G1 General] azrash:
The ram hack is done by upgrading your radio and spl, check ezterry's thread or signature. It would work on any rom, there is an active development on froyo 2.2.2 by e344, it uses less ram, but im still waiting for final version of gb by yoshi, terry =D

Happy flashing! Use switchrom if u want to test diff roms, it helps a lot, google it up, or youtube it, its a simple script

I think I just found the best ROM for G1.

SuperAosp DM 2.8.2.

Got it on and using it right now and very fast on G1.
[G1 General] DevilofanAngel:
Although it's not final yet, I've been partial to COS-DS Gingerbread with built-in apps2sdext. I'm also using Firerat's CustomMTD & AIO for swap. I've also flashed the new radio & spl with ramhack kernels, which has been fairly quick & stable, for a noob like me. I was previously using CM 6.1, but the froyo apps2sd was a disappointment. Tried Sparksmod for a day or 2, but that was quite unstable. I happen to like Gingerbread with my Dream/G1...
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
I was using CM 6.0.0 DS RC1 until this past weekend with it throw my G1 into a loop at the splash screen. With no backup since I was unable to get in the recovery mode. I end up having to Wipe and reflash my G1.

johnson8cyl recommeded the SuperAosp ROM, and I tried it. It works well with my G1 and still running at full speed. Other than the launcher I keep giving me FC every so often (I need to find a better launcher). It doing well with 10 apps loaded on my internal storage.
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
I would say ezterry's 2.2 with the ramhack. Just my 2¢ stability and u wont have to mess with it much. I'm running superaosp but might have to play a little too much for u.
[G1 General] rzak:
+1, very impressive indeed.
[G1 General] G1Dreamers:
Best ROM for G1

I am using COS-DS ginger 2.3.3 ROM.

Pretty stable, and everything works..

supprts a2sdext... so i can get more internal memory which i love.

[G1 General] azrash:
how is the speediness compared to froyofortrout and ezterry's aosp? all i found was a spanish forum, and google translate did not translate it well enough! hahahaha but i do realized that it is gingerbread! better than yoshi's / COS / Andisa?

gonna try it soon!
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Very speedy, especially comparing to CM6.0.0 RC1 that I had. I don't know the comparible will be for froyofortrout and ezterry's aosp. I have not got the chance to even try it.

The ROM had some hard coded area in Spanish, since the coder is from Spain. I didn't have any problem with the google translation at all with their forum. It translated about 98% correctly.

To my understanding from reading their forum, it is not a cook ROM that is based of someone else. It was wrote up from the ground up straight from google adnroid code. And it has Android 2.3.x OS.
[G1 General] Maxamillion:
I am using sparksmod 2.1 with the 15 mb extra boost

everything runs pretty fast and smooth, i was just wondering how would it compare to the SuperAosp DM rom?
[G1 General] sevensaints:
i prefer SparksMod...

tried most of the ROMs but ...still lacking the speed i needed for day to day usage...
[G1 General] G1Dreamers:
How to make COS-ds faster

try COS-DS ROM.. Ginger 2.3.3 latest.

But there are few things you will have to do to make it fast on your G1.

CompCache 26%, VMheap 32M, app2sd in application of COS Settings..

CPU min settings 384, and max 614Mhz...

diable all animations, surface dethering...

Believe me these are worth it... you will find almost 3x times faster....
[G1 General] Jungledrums:
Agreed. Latest COS-DS (7th April) is much, much faster and usable. Good enough for an everyday ROM.
[G1 General] map_841:
COS-DS

After applying the 14MB RAM Hack, i installed BiffMod 2.2.1 with it's latest Biffmod kernel. It's great in battery life and stability, but isn't as fast as the latest COS-DS gingerbread 2.3.3 ROM. I installed the Biffmod kernel along with the COS-DS and now have a stable, fast phone, with a good battery life.
[G1 General] Rapta111:
Would you happen to have a link to the Ginger Yoshi ROM? I seem to be unable to find it using the search box.
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
In my touch dev section
[G1 General] d12unk13astard:
No ones said anything about froyo4lazlo yet...? Wow then your missing out, used to think sparksmod was the fastest and most stable(at least 1.6.1 thru 1.6.2 anyways, future builds way too unstable) but after trying lazlo and theming it the way I wanted @ uot kitchen its been my daily for months.

Cos ds,ezterry gb,superaosp are all great gb roms but there not as stable or fast compared to f4l 5.2 even with no CC or swap being used it's a beast and the best rom I've ever flashed!
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
I think I've mentioned fbl in this thread. Maybe not. It is great I agree. I toggle between that and superaosp. On fbl now.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
You never know, I might try froyo4lazlo next, but for now I am content with superaosp., just did some tinggering the other day, and WOW smooth... no hickups, FCs, etc...
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
Battery isn't as good as gingerbread though. Definitely improved from froyo to gb
[G1 General] d12unk13astard:
I agree that cos and ezgingerbread roms I had slightly better battery life,other then that the positives far outweigh the negatives for me on froyo :D Can't wait to see what cyanogen has in plans for the g2x cm7 for that phone is gonna be insane!
[G1 General] klocust:
hi guys im new and ive just got my g1 and ready for hacking. im good at this suff but i need help to get better. could any 1 post any tutorials links so i can get this gingerbread on my phone.
[G1 General] mlakeman:
Really loving the SuperAosp 2.8.2 with farmatito's kernel. Very fast and easy on the battery. Not the most stable though, got a few FC's.

For that I'm going to say ezTerry's AOSP MyT3G port. I'm gonna try FbL again soon, because my experience with that wasn't what I expected of it. But I have a new battery now and there's a new kernel so why not.
[G1 General] azrash:
check your spl and radio version. do you have amonra or clockworkmod recovery installed? if you do, you can just start flashing gingerbread roms, try COS-DS for cyanogenmod based rom here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=950765

or use AndDiSa AOSP's rom with magpie here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13009568&postcount=1895 (check his signature)

COS-ds and ADS magpie are very stable, no FC for me so far, give it a try :D
[G1 General] androc:
Another vote for Froyo by Laszlo...

I tried the Gingerbread ROMs as well, they seemed fast in the beginning and the battery performed better, but I had memory issues so multitasking was nearly impossible.

With FbL the overall performance and stability is more reliable.
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
Multitasking is why I went back to fbl for now. Going to mess around with superaosp again probably this weekend to see what I can get going on it or if it is just impossible in gb.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Setting Max CPU frequency to the max (614MHz) seem to makes every run a lot more faster, but it does drain out the batter quicker.
[G1 General] lucdeb97:
Hi , I flashed the (last?) release ADS_magpie-20110416-1-signed.zip, pretty good indeed but I don't see the notification bar , Spare Parts, the market and the setting for google account, do I need to flash gapps (where can find for gingerbread on G1?)?. any suggestion? ADS_magpie-20110416-signed.zip perhaps doesn't suffer these problems?
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
WHOA! I am definately staying with SuperAosp, with the new setting and a little more tinkering on the CPU setting, then wipe battery status, and changed the phone. I only used up about 2% of my battery. This is from yesterday 3PM to this morning 6AM. (With 1 or 2 text messages, and 4 to 5 phone call) That usually drain about 15% or 20% of my battey. Of course, I had my Wifi turned off. I will have the Wifi turn on today and see how it goes. :D
[G1 General] azrash:
latest gapps is here, they are not included in ADS by default, because ADS is an AOSP build http://goo-inside.me/gapps/latest/7/universal/
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
UPDATES ON BATTERY: After turning on the wifi from 6:24AM untill now 8:05 AM, with about 3 to 4 text messages, no call. It battery went down about 5%.
[G1 General] lucdeb97:
Thx a lot for the link to gapps, but what about the missing notification bar?

Luc
[G1 General] azrash:
lol, what is this new setting you are using?:p

im not quite sure, the last ADS that i tried was 0413 version, did you do a full superwipe before you flashed? what is your current spl and radio version? if the problem persist after a superwipe, forward it to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=882356

AndDiSa is normally there :D
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Under SupSetting:

Part > Performace > CPU Settings

Min CPU frequency 128 MHz, Max CPU frequency 614 MHz. Set on boot. Governor set to performance.

Reboot into RA Recovery and wipe battery status. Changed the phone

Additional, I also set Lock home in memory and Lock messaging app in memory.

That seem to works for me, but of course when I turn on wifi it does drain faster. But not as bad as before.
[G1 General] azrash:
setting it too low would strain the cpu imho. because the cpu have to jump from 122 straight to 614, might affect its longevity. i recommend this setting here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1040678&postcount=3

it'll go to 122 only when the screen is off, and turn back to 245 as min when you are using it :)
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Thanks, but I don't use SetCPU app. That looks like the setting for it.

128MHz is low, but that's the only option I have without loading thirdparty app to manage it.
[G1 General] Effdee:
nothing new with those settings, they were in froyo by Laszlo first
[G1 General] mimox:
I currently have CyanogenMod 6.1 installed with the default kernel. Performance wise, how would you rate it compared to other ROMs? Would you recommend upgrading radio/spl and going to a 2708 kernel?
[G1 General] azrash:
fastest, most stable, and battery saving for froyo (2.2) that i have used is ezterry's AOSP froyo,followed by froyo for trout, then froyo by lazlo

for GB, i prefer COS due to the extra CM settings available, but ADS is fast. have not tried other GB roms

yeap, upgraded the spl and radio, and never looked back
[G1 General] sisterchick:
I would definitely recommend updating your radio and spl. If you are in the USA, use the 2.22.27.08 radio. Kernel wise, Farmatito's non-BFS kernels are giving me the best battery life I've had since Donut ROMS. You can find them at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010932

I just reinstalled CM6.1 to compare it to the memory footprint and speed of Laszlo Froyo. I remove a lot of the system apps I don't use along with the extra ringtones and use Zeam Launcher. It is running VERY fast and seems to have a better memory footprint. I have an avg of 26MB of free memory. I tried some of the early Gingerbread ROMS. They are promising, but a bit buggy and too hard on the memory. Froyo meets my simple needs so I'm sticking with it.
[G1 General] mimox:
Looks like I will upgrade to newer radio and SPL and try some ROMs
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Make sure you do radio then SPL.
[G1 General] mimox:
Thanks for mentioning it... I will carefully read some more docs before I try... but good thing is that the G1 is not my main phone anymore ;)
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
The. 25 radio is the newest one. No problems no matter where u are.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Looks like I might just do that. Will it resolved battery life issue? I do not recall. :D
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
Don't recall the battery changing tbh.
[G1 General] BeenAndroidized:
Oh well, I'll try anyway. :D
[G1 General] mimox:
Just to make it clear, you are talking about the 2.22.28.25 radio, right? update_2.22.28.25_S.zip in ezterry's original 2708+ post?

Also, reading on the 2708+ post made me wonder if the 1.33.0013d SPL is what I should try? It seems to have some downsides, but most people here are using it?
[G1 General] sza:
Froyo by laszlo 5.2, stable, lightweight and fast, but it won't be updated any more...however, it is almost perfect for me.
[G1 General] johnson8cyl:
Yes correct radio. I think u should use it. Always need extra ram. Make sure u use the 13d spl

[G1 General] Maxamillion:
Is froyo by lazlo better than biffmod or sparksmod?

for me i prefer "froyo by lazlo"

[G1 General] Effdee:
it wasn't directed at you.

And being 15 is not an excuse for anything, so please don't tire that one out as well.
[G1 General] Maxamillion:
Oh, my bad....
[G1 General] BitingChaos:
I tried about half a dozen ROMs for my G1. From stock CM6 to old ones based on 1.5/1.6 that promised speed.

The best I've used so far (like others have mentioned) is the "Froyo by Laszlo" (5.2) ROM.

It's not perfect. After install, you have to do a few things.

to fix text color:

Settings -> Extras -> User Interface -> Tweaks Extras -> Reset UI

to fix fonts and other missing stuff:

run "addons" from terminal to download and install missing files.

(this one may fail if Laszlo's site goes down)

And even when the "addons" command installed "Email.apk", it didn't show up for me.

This seemed to fix it:

(from a terminal)

# mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs /system

# cd /system/app

# chown root:root Email.apk

# chmod 644 Email.apk

# reboot

Sorry if this had all been covered. It's a shame to read that it won't be updated any more.
[G1 General] ldrifta:
soooo what ended up being the best result in this thread...? FroyobyLazlo?? haha i wouldn't doubt it... unbeatable still to this day!!!!
[G1 General] ldrifta:
yeah it does suck it wont be updated anymore.. besides the minor tweaking you have to do after flashing its still just an all aroung great rom. everytime i try something new it never lasts more than a day or 2 before im back to lazlo's rom.. i just made a bart backup and it gives you EVERYTHING back lol even ur apps in the ext so its easy for me to go back to what i had.. no more early tweaks lol

ps. i also flash the ezbifftest kernel so a lil memory boost :D
[G1 General] z0k:
froyo by laszlo is the best froyo rom out there by a long shot.a close second would be the mt3g port by ezterry.ofcourse we r glad to have a developer like terry to do the groundwork for us to keep enjoying our g1s,the polish is done by all the other valued devs.

It's just the ui not reacting to the actual activation, like it's constantly turning off and on. It's kinda being stuck in limbo so you have to reboot. But I did wipe and reflash a few times to root out the bad flash as an issue, but nothing a reboot can't fix.
