Hi all,
This is the discussion thread of our Galaxy 3 ROMs. Including Froyo, Gingerbread & ICS. Ups & Downs in every ROM, Suggestions to the Dev, Problems facing & their solutions etc.
Your opinion counts which will help in evolution of custom ROMs. Of course, It all depends on your personal preferences. But still...
Some ROMs notable alphabetically...
Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe)
Dutchmods
ICS for G3
Kyora ROM
Kyrillos ROM
Purumod ROM
Sekhy ROM
Vivek's ROM
A Note: Please do not hurt personally anybody.
Thanks in advance,
Sekhar

This thread has been created for open discussions about ROMs and their features and to share your opinions only - NOT TO IMPOSE YOUR OPINION. I will keep a strict watch on this one!

Thanks, thread stuck.. maybe an idea to list the roms as well..

I like the ICS UI better than any laucher ones

For GB : CM7 is the best
For Froyo (JPU) : Kyorarom 5.2 with G3Mod 2.3 kernel non-oc (flash manually the kernel) -> very stable, ultra fast, and, for my dad, the most battery efficient Rom (5-6 days per charge and 1 week if you use nothing).

Im a freshman in flashing roms, im doing this for about 2 months now. And i can say that
Cynogenmod Port is the best for our Galaxy 3, of course Kyrillos Rom based on CM7-A7 will stand next to the first one. Although on Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe) we dont have full bluetooth function and camera is black/white, but its very stable.

Hmmm..Tough Question!
I have tried Kyorarom and Kyrillos and I find Kyrillos v9.5 better than Kyorarom 0.5.2,both in case of battery backup and performance Kyrillos exceeds Kyorarom.
Kyorarom needs to be refined a little and everything will be fine, coz am having lag problems on it.
Still got to try Sekhy's and DutchMod. I am having download problems as of now so will try both the ROMs and report soon.

Have tried and did not pass Boot Loop in the following ROMs
1. Kyora ROM
2. Kyrillos ROM
Used Vivek's ROM for 2 days and it was fantastic, but the data usage while roaming drained me completely..but one of the best for G3.
Currently use CM but CM needs to be tweaked continuously for better battery and results. The features that CM 7.1 has is great. All working fine
Have tried CM 6.2 too and was happy.
The only ROM to beat CM on features is WIUI, but WIUI does not support G3 currently
Hope this helps!

Well, I have tried plenty of ROMs for G3 (from the latest e.g. Kyorarom v0.5.2, Kyrillos 9.5, CM 6.2...) but all of them beats CM 7.1 modded by Kyrillos - GWK74.
It´s fast as hell, stable, pretty good battery backup (3 days of moderate usage).
The only thing I miss are video codecs for avi format, which were in froyo ROMs.
And another suggestion it would be great if Fugumod Ultra kernel would support Gingerbread ROMs...don´t know if it´s possible, but it´s performance in froyo is epic

Tried many ROMs but i find the Kyrillos version of cm7 the best....

On a serious note, i think the stock JPU ROM is insanely smooth and fast I'm using it right now and app opening times, scrolling etc. are really fast and smooth. Battery backup is also awesome compared to Kyrillos' ROM V 9.5 where the battery lasted 1 day of heavy usage then 1 day of hardly any usage because i was scared to waste the battery half the way through the day in case i got any important phone calls.

In my Opinion the cm7 port is the best not only cause you can change your design via cm7 but also performance and battery is very good here, had kyrollos before but yeah i wanted something new and with cm7 port i have much mor fun with my phone

ICS
As long as you don't need bluetooth and camera badly, i actually think ICS is pretty amazing. It's good enough for daily use now at least, almost at CM7 level.

My opinion =
For daily usage: Stock rom (I recommend XXJPS or DDJP4)
Need for speed? : Kyorarom , Kyrillos' rom
Classic rom : Vivek's rom or Purumod
For showing off: CM7, ICS, AOSP original ginger port by marcel

Hi Sekhar,
Could you add the link to each of these ROM threads - and have a comparison [a fair one] for the benefit of the community?
I've not tried Purumod, Sekhy etc..
And what is the funda is installing a ROM from earlier version?
For Instance, Your ROm suggests that the earlier version be installed first..I'm foxed here

Sekhys ROM for Gb is fantastic. Nice user experience and great display for normal use.
But Videos are Laggy and other than mp4 formats dont play..
Bloatware IMO is avast and Battery XL Both can be removed by force closing the apps and uninstalling them in applications

Like Kyrillos' v9.5 most. Of course I didn't like battery life with 'default' g3mod kernels especially when I was using 2g/3g internet connection so I flashed Astrum v 1.0 from moikop and now everything works like a charm ;-)

Same here, hope K 10. will get rid of battery drain prob.

...tried Kyrillos' 10 Beta 1 over the weekend and performance and battery drain is really ok.
of course there are still some probs as the black/white preview when taking pictures with camera and didn't get bluetooth connection to send/receive some files; but as pictures are taken in colour (seen when accessed on sdcard) and files can also send by wireless (f.e. airdroid) or usb connection (cable) i can live with it. also having data2sd with link2sd (s2e didn't work properly for me; corrupted my sdcard)
perhaps i'll flash K 10 beta2 end of next week?!

Froyo ROMS [2.2]
1)XenoROM R1
-Stock ROM
-Custom XenoROM kernel
-Great performance
-Froyo based, 2.2 ROM
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905758
Opinion : A fast, lightweight ROM with great performance. An excellent ROM for users looking for a taste of the dated Froyo UI. However, it is not generally preferred due to the release of newer Android platforms such as 2.3 and 4.0
2)Japanese Jellyfish RLS8
-Custom ROM
-Custom kernel
-Overclockable
-Froyo based, 2.2 ROM
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=891314
Opinion : A smooth custom ROM with an overclocked kernel. One of the most popular ROMs before the release of GingerBread ROMs for the ZTE Blade. However, it is not generally preferred due to the release of newer Android platforms such as 2.3 and 4.0
GingerBread ROMS [2.3+]
1)EliteMovil BladeROMs
-Custom ROMs
-Includes custom apps like K9 Mail, Translate, Ported Launcher, etc.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232614
Opinion : One of the early GingerBread builds for the ZTE Blade, the EliteMovil series of ROMs provide a great deal of customization to users coming from stock ROMs. Features such as SD ext support, overclockable kernels, etc. give EliteMovil’s ROMs a certain flair over the stock ROMs
2)XenoROM R4
-Hardware Acceleration
-A2SD support
-Bloatware free
-Many preinstalled apps
-Gingerbread based, 2.3 ROM
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910356
Opinion : After XenoROM R2’s success, the R3 GingerBread version was highly anticipated. Featuring bloatware free menus, various preinstalled apps and A2SD support, this is a must have for users looking for a clean GingerBread ROM

-Darktremor A2SD modified by wbaw
-CM7 apps like email, gallery and keyboard
-BusyBox 1.19
-MonteCarlo libs

4)DianXin OS
-Loads of customization
-Stable ROM
-Great UI
-Gingerbread based, 2.3 ROM
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1479188
Opinion : Although this ROM isn’t very popular, it is actually a great ROM. Sporting an MIUI styled UI, with amazing customization options, it ranks among the better GingerBread ROMs out there. However, future updates for it have been abandoned.

Link : http://www.modaco.com/topic/350875-romgen2-swedish-snow-rls7-android-235/
Opinion : Even as the Blade joins the rank of stable ICS phones, Swedish Snow is still one of the most widely used ROMs. With smooth performance, zero lags and quick responsiveness, it is considered the smoothest Blade ROM and is popular among users who prefer performance over visuals
IceCreamSandwich ROMS [4.0+]
1)CyanogenMod 9
-ICS UI
-Original CyanogenMod9
-Unstable
-No updates since quite a while
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
Opinion : This is the original CyanogenMod 9 unofficial build for the ZTE Blade. At the time of release it was highly anticipated as THE ICS ROM for the ZTE Blade, however due to absence of updates and lack of support, it remains at an early alpha stage, with developers focusing on ColdFusionX
2)BurstLam’s AOKP
-Great ICS AOKP
-ICS GoogleApps
-ICS UI
-Adjustable Softbuttons
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
Opinion : As opposed to ColdFusionX, Burstlam chooses to take time and make major differences tan to release small updates. Currently on Alpha 6.3, the only features not working are YouTube HQ, Video Recording and FM Radio. Hopefully the next update will fix these issues
3)ColdFusionX
-Fully Stable ICS ROM
-Hardware Acceleration
-OpenMaXX camera drivers
-Qualcomm drivers

WP7 Themed : http://www.modaco.com/topic/355702-romcm9wp7-styledlink-up/
Opinion : ColdFusionX is the most favored ICS ROM to date. With beautifully fast updates and minimal bugs, this looks to be a promising ICS ROM. However, some features like WiFi tethering, YouTube HQ and Voice Typig aren’t working, though it is fit for daily use
4)MIUI v4
-MIUI user interface
-ICS themed
-Smooth UI
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429539
Opinion : This one’s for all MIUI fans. Combining the sleekness of MIUI and the beauty of the ICS user in one ROM, MIUI v4 is a great ROM optimized for daily usage
5) KonstaKANG
-Slim ICS ROM
-Fast, smooth
-Development stage similar to ColdFusionX
Link : http://www.modaco.com/index.php?/to....]-CyanogenMod-9---KonstaKANG-(Android-4.0.4)
Opinion : With a small partition requirement and minimal bugs, this looks to be a promising ICS ROM. However, some features like WiFi tethering, YouTube HQ and Voice Typig aren’t working, though it is fit for daily use.
6) ParanoidAndroid
-Hybrid Tablet UI
-Fast, smooth
-Port from ZTE Skate
Link : http://www.modaco.com/topic/355347-romport-paranoid-android-updated-020712/
Opinion : A much hyped and awaited ROM, ParanoidAndroid brings the tablet UI to the ZTE Blade screen. With features like the tablet home launcher and dual pane settings, ParanoidAndroid surely catches the eye
7) ParanoidAndroid

-Good battery life
-ICS 4.0.4 ROM
Link : http://www.modaco.com/topic/355540-eco-blade-aiming-for-stability-and-battery-efficiency/

Opinion : So here we have it. JellyBean for our Blade. One of the first armv6 devices to get it. And it's surprisingly quite stable compared to the early ICS builds. With almost everything except camera, gps, tethering, headphones and radio working, this is not for daily use but is great for a little taste of the latest Android version

Everyone gets that but the updates are by now months old and he's providing direct links rather than links to the changelog-download pages.
CFX is two versions newer and that is the least outdated.
It's just not working if the thread starter doesn't want to spend the time updating the info, that might hurt the threadstarters feelings but still, running old versions just to spare his feelings?
Just go to http://blade.az.pl/ and copy the info, it would take five seconds out of every day.
Or just redirect to there, they have the newest of everything including CFX.

ColdFusionX is the only one that has the Alpha 13 tag. The rest are all linked to the roms threads here on xda. If u want the Changelog, follow the link and read it in the thread
Where, if I may ask, are the direct links?

I think you should add CM7 KANGs from http://blade.windows98.co.uk/ (targetbsp's one).
They feature some custom libs that improve 3d perfomance and on that page is linked also upgraded gapps (for Gingerbread) and an alternative kernel that fix battery issues on CM 7.2.

[Q] miui jb v 2.9.21

Hy guys,
Today i've installed miui, the rom works quite fine to me, but one problem exists... there are several laggs when i open a app or go to settings, i got speed bugs, scrolling can be lagging too
before i installed miui, my phone runs with helly bean which was much faster than miui..
is miui not stable or are there other problems? ive installed miui with the installation guide... i like the rom, i had miui since gingerbread miui
should i reinstall miui or reflash samsung rom and start at the beginning?
thx mc

Yesterday i tryed 2 different ports of miui jb v 2.9.21, the US one and one from here, both suffered from lags and its not fast overal compared with [ROM GNEXUS PORT] JRO03L 4.1.1 RC12.1 [official jelly bean stock rom] or even stock CM10, and my battery could be seen draining by the minute...flashing was made from scratch full wipes of everything including system, caches, data etc.
Its a nice rom with loads of features but its impossible to like have it on my I9000 with so many lags.
If you want the fastes most stable problem free rom imo its [ROM GNEXUS PORT] JRO03L 4.1.1 RC12.1 [official jelly bean stock rom], others good also that i know because i used them its CM10, and now trying [AOKP JB] Tsunami X 1.1 - by Team Tsunami - Designed for you [OTA][22 sep 2012], has loads of feature, its stable all works and battery life seems good have to test for longer.
The safest bet including awsome battery life its [ROM GNEXUS PORT] JRO03L 4.1.1 RC12.1 [official jelly bean stock rom], if something minimal is wrong with this Tsunami X 1.1 , ill be back to it.

ok thx dude, i will test tsunami today
hope miui gets stable enough, soon !

[Q] [ICS] The Most Clean ROM

Hi guys,
which is ROM "most clean, fastest, smoothest,..." on Huawei u8800? I mean ICS ROM... (MIUI, Aurora,...) I think your opinion.

Aurora by far...

Hi, i tested a few Custom Roms for the U 8800. The best ones are Aurora and Elora (stable, long batterie life, lag free)

Aurora is a clean ICS build from sources and includes a very little amount of non-stock tweaks or anything else.
Elora is also a great choice but I hate this TouchWiz-ui.
So you just must to choose between Aurora that must be tweaked on your own and Elora that must also be tweaked or even re-tweaked on your own. Both of them are pretty stable (not the new v.5 Aurora — it's experimental ver.)
Sorry for my bad Eng.

ics i mean
aurora is one of the best rom for x5 so far.

Aurora ICS
I believe Aurora ICS to be the best, even the V5 version is pretty good. I've been testing ever since it was available for download & I have yet to find any real issues with it.
I have also tried Elora, MIUI, & they're also not too bad.
Might I suggest you consider Mokee OS. It's not ICS based from what I can tell but it is an excellent rom packed with features & very quick.
Just a thought.......

Aurora is very fast and smooth and the difference from MIUI is noticable.
But if you get used to MIUI interface you won't ever want another rom
Also, Aurora for those who like to use MMS and don't have data plan is a bad choice as you must have data connectes in order to send/receive MMS. In MIUI you don't.
Aurora photos and video are way worst than MIUI V4.
Overall 2 good rooms and if MIUI V4 was fast and smooth like Aurora would be a perfect rom!

[Q] Most stabe custom rom recommendation?

Hi guys, I've just recently purchased a U8800 (NOT pro, just the normal one).
I did some research already and the more I read, the more confused I am. It seems that many roms, especially the MIUI ones all have similar problems related to performance, wifi issues etc.
And speaking of MIUI roms, I'm not sure which one is the better one (in terms of speed and stability). Here're the ones I'm referring to:
[ROM] MIUI V4 based Elite ROM SX - (Stable) - 2012-07-14

MIUI PORTUGAL V4 - 2.9.29.1 (Base GenoKolar)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928336&highlight=miui
It seems that some of them are based on GenoKolar's MIUI rom, and that some are based on other people's roms.
The same applies to other non-MIUI roms, such as this one:
[ROM] Elora 1.10.13 - 2012-10-13
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798031
which is a hybrid of DZO's Alora rom and some extra added stuff from other roms.
Anyway, I'm really confused by which one to try. I don't want to risk bricking my device or going through the trouble of testing each one and experiencing the problems or bugs, and then try the next one and so on. I was wondering if someone could kindly provide some suggestions as to which rom is the most stable and is decent in terms of speed/performance.
Also, by stable I mean that it has the least bugs OR that it has the minimum amount of critical bugs that could affect the phone's daily use.
Thanks in advance.

Personally i think that for daily use ezet's CyanogenMod 7.2 with .32 kernel is the best considering performance,battery etc. but it is kind of outdated since dzo has made a pretty stable ICS rom(Aurora) which is a lot newer and smoother but with a few bugs remaining. Not to mention that dzo is from the same city as you haha!

Thanks for your reply!
Ya I also think that CM 7.2 is quite outdated, even my Motorola Milestone (which has locked bootloader and no custom kernel support until recently) is on an even newer CM RC release, I think it's on RC3 or RC4 now.
And ya I also agree that Dzo's Aurora rom is probably the most updated one around here but I did read a few comments in the last few pages about certain bugs so I dunno if I should flash it or not.....

I prefer Aurora 4.1u1 for daily use. There's still some bugs, but with some time and understanding of how to find the reason of your problem you'll get the most recent and stable ROM for U8800 now. Also Dzo's back and he is working on the update now so it wouldn't take long to fix all the bugs remaining.

Hi!
Actually i'm with Elora. It's pretty cool and stable.
Best regards

MIUI PT, based on Geno's version is the way to go., in my oppinion.
Very stable, nice and weekly updated
But, honestly speaking, althought every rom as its ups and downs, nothing like you try them all and see which one adapts better to your needs. :good:
