I'm a fan of CM7 but for no real reason haha. They are both great and I like AOSP ROMs and refuse to use Sense ROMs. I really like having all the CM settings available.

This. But seriously, they are just different flavors. The way I see it (and I could be wrong as I haven't used OMFGB for a while) is that OMFGB is meant to be as close as possible to a straight port of AOSP GB. It's not really meant to get bogged down with extra stuff. But I really do love all the settings and abilities that CM provides. Especially Permission management!

All the best,

That would be OMBG. OMFGB is more a personalized version of OMGB. Little changes you can make like the service provider header, the lockscreen, and things. I'm using it and I love it but just for a pure GB AOSP rom your best bet is OMGB, but you can't go wrong with any of them in my honest opinion.

I keep going back and forth. I'm enjoying the nightly updates and developer thread of OMFGB. CM7 is also working flawlessly for me, has built in overclocking, runs the market Netflix, and has some additional custom settings. I'm keeping both up to date, and am enjoying watching both get better at a good pace.

You should give liquid thunderbread a try....its unbelievable that this rom isn't more popular. Getting the best download speeds, over 30mbs on speakeasy website, not the app. Yes its aosp.
Yeah, consider LTB in your lineup, but use 2.3 if you do (2.4 introduced some decent bugs).

Personally I switch between all 3 fairly often but I keep coming back to OMFGB.

OMFGB's RIL works noticeably better for me than any other AOSP ROM. Tried the others multiple times but either the 3G and 4G data drops or the handoff is sluggish. With OMFGB, I haven't had to toggle back and forth multiple times to get a 4G connection in quite some time. Works like it's supposed to. OMFGB is much much better for me.
OMFGB has been good to me, on 2.3.5 base, LTE hand offs are prefect, in call volume issue isn't as bad on it, and its in the nightly phase.
Liquid thunder bread is AOSP? will check it out
+1 for LTB

CM7 for me. Flashed OMFGB today on my bolt, and OMGB a few days ago on my incredible. Might just be what i am used too but i couldn't find some of the extra settings from CM that i like in OMFGB.

Yeah, that's the main weakness. If you like then that much, try Liquid Thunderbread. It has more than CM7.

I have heard great things about it, I will definitely have to look into flashing it one of these days.
I'm pretty happy with CM7 RC1.3. No major issues at all.
So now I don't have to choose. Saw an article in Lifehacker about Boot Manager and now I'm a multi-booting fool. CM7 is my base, OMFGB in slot 1. Tomorrow, the world! Like, bamf or something. Love it.
Right now i've been rocking CM7.1, OMFGB is going to be my next when netflix finally works proper on it, and then who knows, i'm a chronic crack flasher so i never really stay on a rom for more than a few days

Yeah, it is pretty cool although they need to do something about that license check. Flash a rom without gapps and with broken data and you're stuck in that rom, then.

I prefer CM7 because it seems more stock to me the OMGB or OMFGB. It is my current daily driver.
