Root Best ICS ROM.

Bberry, have you tried it? I downloaded the first one, and it wasn't really my cup of tea. It was slower on quadrant than my cyanogenmod 7.2.

I've been running HawkSense since beta 5. Sense ROMs will always run lower Quadrants than CM but that's not what I use my phone for.

Any and all of the ICS Roms are not in the same realm as CM7 for quadrant scores right now. I don't think any of them are as snappy as CM7 overclocked. That is like comparing your brand new Toyota Camry to your buddies four year old Porsche. Nice Camry, but that Porsche will win every time.

I've been running HawkSense for a while. The only problem I have is websites like Rootzwiki render really slow. It sounds like Ecliptic has the same problem. If I want to read my favorite paper, the Canyon Country Zephyr, I have to boot into CCM7. Then after a while I miss ICS and switch back. I might try UKB again soon to see if it renders better.
 
Fine. I'll try some more ICS...
:dalek:
First is the latest UKB X. Not bad. Camera is finally working well for me (after the patch). Wish we had a kernel to OC with. But this is the only ROM so far that I have kept the Sense launcher as default, at least for a long long time.

Next I want to try the latest AOKP from Aerovan. I hear good things about it, and he is known for his good work (and we can O/C)

Kinda chompin' at the bit for that Ecliptic though...
 
I prefer Ecliptic but I'll run ArcticICSed until Ecliptic gets the Facebook problems ironed out. PrimoBones-HawkSense still has rendering problems.
