[ROM][TEST][SENSE]Stock/Deodexed/Zipaligned Stock ROM

Most of you guys probably only want AOSP, but for those of you with extra time on your hands and with nothing else to do I present to you my first ROM, built from Shipped ROM.
The ROM is completely zipaligned, deodexed, and most Verizon Bloatware apk.s are removed. If there are any remaining, please let me know in the comments.
This should be one of the fastest Stock ROMs available. I know other people may have created the same kind of ROM, but please, don't flame on me.
Of course, this ROM still runs Android 2.2.1, however I hope to update that in future test version, as well as AOSP.
I also must warn you, the file size is a gigantic 240MB. If all goes well with this test ROM, AOSP will be next

this not meant to flame at all, but since gingerbread is official and has been for awhile, why would you be working on froyo at all?
its not like gb was a leak that has random bugs and froyo is a better option

You dont post things to "let people know" in the development section dude. There's a General section for that. There is no development going on here so how would it even equate to be considered as development? It doesn't. Please follow XDA rules or don't post. Thanks.

I agree with Howard Johnson agreeing with Howard Johnson.
Why is everyone tripping. Now i really love my SGS2 family. No one from our thread actually complained about my earlier release warning lol. I and we never got hassle. People actually was grateful to know that they have time to prepare for a rom. So they could have their backups in order. Thanks for letting us no this. And i support 100% and if anyone thinks im just some random im not. Actually im about to port all of my roms from SGS2 to 3 and when i tell yall i really dont care if u complain about my early warning. I BET YOU STILL FLASH IT!!!!! LOL

Now I have to decide if I should stay on CM10 or go back to the MIUI I love. I'm really digging how smooth Jelly Bean is, and Google Now is awesome. But then, MIUI is where I feel most comfortable UI-wise. This will be a tough decision until MIUI moves to JB.

That's what I was thinking at first, but after using CM10, it manages to be a smoother experience for me. I especially like that the XDA Premium app no longer has problems. I also prefer the new notification bar over the TW bar.
None of this really matters in CM10 vs. MIUI, though. It'll be a tough choice.

Jelly Bean AOSP

Hello everyone,
I am trying to build a build of jelly Bean 4.1.1 for my cousins Galaxy Nexus GSM but I keep getting a great amount of errors, SO I was wondering if someone can just upload a OTA package of 4.1.1 tht I could download and flash to my cousins phone. Also just out of curiosity how would I flash it? through CWM? thx
LOVE U XDA!
-Kevin
Person who helps me will get huge rep and thanks Maybe even a donation ltr
Well, if your cousin intended to use it as a daily driver, it probably wouldn't have been the brightest thing to just build an AOSP version of Android. By itself, it really doesn't do much (NFC, GPS and a plethora of other things don't work because of lacking proprietary drivers [unless you rip them yourself], there aren't Google apps included by default, in general it lacks a lot of things).
Anywho, here's a link to the OTA package for Jelly Bean. Instructions can be found here.
Thank you so much good sir. Now I learn something new everyday

Which ROMs are you running??

Ok so I upgraded from the Galaxy Nexus a week ago. Absolutely loving this beast. Sorry if this thread has already been started. Im noticing ROMs are starting to pop up fast in just the week that ive had this, so I rooted last night and just wanted a feel for what people are running for custom ROMs and why they like them. I def want to get rid of this bloat that came with it, and I love customizing things. So what do you all think? what are you digging on at this very early stage? They all seem pretty nice at this point so I just wanted some thoughts on what you are all liking. Thanks!!

Sick of trying out new ROMS

I love my nexus 5x, love the community, but would like to select a rom and would like to stay on that, so far i love Cynogen and love it, but i dont like this weekly updating, is there any way we can get a ROM wjhich is stable and can send up OTA. what are your thoughts!!
Ya, stock

Umm, this is the kind of threads that you should never think of posting on XDA.. Why the hell did I get a Nexus phone if I'm not gonna flash a new ROM every 2 days? It's fun!
Exodus has built in updater it will notify you of update, download and install. It comes with rom
As well as many others read some threads dude, its all here!
Try Omni rom. It comes with delta updater which allows you to download only the updated part of the rom. Generally size of 10-20mb and is updated on nightly basis. And next time before posting research more and double check on the thread you are posting

Why not just stick with stock? Its stable has monthly OTA updates and can still be rooted if you need to (ive seen no need personally).
Either that or just dont keep updating weekly, find a stable version and stick with it until a feature release comes along.

It is.. But why stick with stock when you can try different things and features? It's the main reason I sold my Galaxy S6 edge and went for a 5x, because I got bored.

I do try different things and features. Different Kernel, recoveries, root tweaks, Xposed, mods... all on stock.
And when I get bored, I MultiRom some other rom and then delete it. But Stock remains.
Just flashed resurrection remix. What a nice ROM. Just found my best ROM

I'm coming from an N5, are there any roms at the moment that are similar to Cataclysm ROM from the N5? it's basically stock as far as I can understand, just a lot better performance / battery, and it has an options menu that lets you adjust extra various things.

Xposed, Greenify, GravityBox, with Nova (I don't use it but it seems closest to Google Launcher with extra options), and open the UI Tuner menu.
