I think it's just a matter of personal preference. I'm on nightly THS ICS and totally happy with it. No problem whatsoever
I guess not every Cappy is happy with ICS though. My gf's gets SOD and random reboot with ICS. I'm trying other ICS ROMs with it and may finally get it back to GB.

Have you tried SlimICS? I have it on my phone and I know a few people that put it on their captivates, no problems so far...

Have you tried ZSimplyAOKP? No seriously, have you? I don't think anyone who's used this ROM would want to go back to GINGERBREAD :what: . Before you lose all hope give this one a go.

Default ICS

I've just recently switched back to Darky after trying nearly every ICS rom that I could flash. I had absolutely zero problems with them, and in my opinion the launchers and overall UI is much smoother than Gingerbread. However, I've had my Cappy for almost two years, and while I'm due for an upgrade, I love the phone too much to see it bricked because of an issue that nobody seems to be able to explain or figure out (including myself). But one thing is for certain... it has been a great couple of years and I'll stretch it out as long as I can!

I've try many roms too. zsimplyAOKP, DOCs, SlimICS, change modems, try each rom with different kernel... and Im thinking hard to get back to stock.

I have one of those old cappy who SoD over 80% bttery charge on stock.

Im now doing some testing with captivate keep alive at all time ON and even with that notice 1 or 2 reboots per day.

I went back to stock 2.3.3 for a bit too after getting pissed at the instability of the 5 or 6 ICS roms i flashed/tested out. In fact, one ICS kernel actually bjorked my USB port into thinking it was being used when it wasn't and vice versa. The real drag was not having hspda!! I've recently switched back to slimICS and have been absolutely LOVING it. I won't be switching roms again any time soon. As one stated previously in this thread, each cappy seems to have a mind of it's own

I have been using Slim ICS (with Apex Lancher) for 2 months now, all I can say is...WOW! It is super stable, tons of features and speedy too. Faster then CM7 as I recall. With every release it keeps getting better. Seriously, give it a try. With Slim on my Cappy I can happily wait for a quad core phone that catches my attention.

Well after reading up on the "encryption unsuccessful" issue, I decided to play it safe and go back to GB until a fix is discovered.

GB was good. But out of stock ROMs Froyo had the best battery life. And Eclair was good too. And just imagine how fast and cool Donut would be on our Cappies! Anyone to port?
