~OFFICIAL Post Your Favorite ROM Thread~

Puddin422 · Dec 19, 2011

There was a thread like this on the Epic forum, and it was very, very helpful. So, please post your favorite rom, why you like it, any issues you had, other tips and tricks, etc.

Thank you!!

I would start, but I'm still on stock rom, rooted.

I've been running UnNamed since I purchased the phone a month and a half ago. It seems to be the clear winner if you're looking for the basics with all the junk removed (and a few nice tweaks).

I have been considering a switch to some of the ICS themed ROMS, but will most likely wait until we get actual releases with the updated software.

UnNamed is rock solid, has great battery life and is super fast. Would not hesitate to recommend in a heartbeat, but also interested in what other people have to suggest!

Currently running TASK650's ICS'd OUT version 8. It's an ICS theme and it's tweaked for blazing speed and excellent battery life. I was previously running Cognition 777 R3 but it is not longer being updated. It was great but I got bored.

MIUI is currently my favorite. I've tries them all out seems like and they are all very nice. MIUI just feels clean and smooth. Throw in Siyah kernel and it's even better. Battery life is amazing.

ive really been liking ICScrewD, came from MIUI but never got the battery life others got. I liked it too but i like more of a stock android feel

I have been running Unnamed and it was great but a buddy is running cyanogenmod on his and I must say I am impressed.

CM7 is nice. I just switched to Shostock with Entropy latest DD and its nice. Very fast retains stock look

I was running Unnamed from day one. Recently switched to turkbey with jkay mod. Love it!

Infamous05gt · Feb 23, 2012

So I switched from UnNamed to stock 2.3.4 heck of an improvement on battery. But just tried cm7 and I can't for the love of me figure out how to use it. So Until I have more time back to 2.3.4

Just wanted to bump this thread.

Currently running ShoStock 1.9.4. Tried the latest CM7.2 RC and liked it, but still experienced freezes with Market/Play. Loved the battery life on CM, but went back to Sho, battery life is pretty decent on there anyway.

What sort of difference are you seeing with AOKP? On 1.1 myself since all the RCs but not sure what else is really available.

CrimsonPride · Apr 5, 2012

Not a whole lot really. I've been struggling with battery life but I also reflashed it this morning due to messing with some fonts and making things look like crap. I think I need a few more power cycles to be able to say how it's really doing.

Simba501 · Apr 6, 2012

CheckROM v6 from the 9100 (ported using Hellraiser).

Teako · Apr 6, 2012

ShoStock2 v1.1 Running smooth for me!! Tried AOPK 4.0.4 Went back to ShoStock. Maybe I didnt give AOPK enough time? Not sure. But Im really happy with ShoStock!!

375thRanger · Apr 20, 2012
