Hello,
As a relative newbie to Android I have been following assiduously these threads trying to get a good general understand so as to get the best out of my galaxy.
I would say that the most frustrating for me is general responsivity, having to reload practicaly every web page if I have moved away from the browser (and sometimes just away from the page, although I rarely have more than just the browser, gmail, battery widget, alarm clock and task killer running), and battery life to mention only the important things.
As for the important positive aspect, I would say that I am more than satisfied with stability, I rarely if ever see anything crashing or behaving awkardly (save 3D games of course, and a specific problem with my dialpad not working when I call my answering service...but I am diverging from my subject...
Anyway keeping these important aspects in mind, I am very curious to try out one of the alternate roms that you all mention so often, mainly:
-Galaxo
-Galaxhero
-Cyanogen
But I can't seem to figure out what mainly is it that is so amazing about them, what improvement I can expect from them, and what main inconvenience I can expect.
Could someone (or a collective mind ) please give me a comparative study of these three roms keeping in mind my main points of interest (responsivity, usability, battery life and stability)? Basic pros and cons?
For the moment all I seem to understand is that you get ram swapping, and that alone changes everything. Is that all though and how does it affect the other parameters?
Also upon installing, do we loose all memory (i.e. the 8GB), or just the standard factory reset memory, or not anything at all (doesn't sound likely)?
Thanks a bunch
