Help me pick best rom ;/

This might have been posted couple times sorry if it was but I need some help from you guys.
My issue:
AOKP - after sometime it just gets slow but awesome battery
Android Revolution - RUNS PERFECT! with Franco Kernel or stock does not matter
however issue is : battery dies to fast...
BAMF - after sometime roms becomes slow same as AOKP
MIUI - well the last version I tried was way to slow...
back in the day when I had GS2 the goal was to go from GB to ICS now I really dont know which rom to choose -_-
help apperciated thanks guys

roms dont really become slow over time
most likely you're installing too much crap with invisible background services. Do a wipe and install only the stuff you actually use, and research carefully before installing new stuff.

Liquid 1.35. Smooth, snappy and awesome battery life

Actually I have exact same setup with Android HD and its not getting slow at all , same amount of apps I mean everything is the same minus the AOKP custom settings any other way to improve battery with franco on Android HD?

You could try gummy. That's what I'm using it's quick and good battery.

This is the best. After trying many.

[Q] Anyone planning on upgrading to Jellybean?

I was just wondering how many other people are already planning to upgrade over to Jellybean once it actually comes out (officially or unofficially). There are a lot of perks with staying stock like stability etc but will miss the functionality and tweakability of custom ROMs.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

As soon as there is AOKP for JB - I'm upgrading.

I'll wait a few months to give ample time for all inclusive feedback from the community, and to give the CM team some time to fine tune. But yea, eventually.

As soon as it comes out I'll be swapping! Personally I found the Google images to be perfectly fine to be running as my daily driver and as much as I love my customisations, I won't mind the new features.

Upgrading right away. I don't see a reason why not. Plus it won't take as long for cm to port it over because the code won't be a restart from scratch (compared to gb vs ics)

I personally feel the same as you. I've been using CM9 since I bought my Nexus back in December '11 and I flash nearly every nightly that's released. So keeping with the trend and to stay cutting edge I will upgrade to stock JB until CM10 or whatever it's gonna be called comes out.

As soon as Rascream gets it ill give it a go... I have been in stock, aokp, cm9,eb,paranoid,fh and tried all the kernels franco/trinity /glados/stock with all the roms also got all the apps control for the main kernels trinity/franco/glados and I kept going back to cm9 they do a perfect job and it's a great rom combined with Franco or Linaro franco its a beast getting over 4500 in quadrant at 1600mhz 512mhz gpu and the phone was smooth as the real hell but hey the battery drain at such performance its crazy... so with cpu at 1400 and interactive governor battery was about 15 hours with 4 hours screen, and still buttery smooth... or at least that's what I thought.... until 2 days ago I decided to try a Linaro optimized rom and the name Rascream came up since I'm trying the franco Linaro seemed to be a good idea...
Gentlemans I don't think I'm going back to any other rom after trying this.. he encourage to use it along with trinity Kernel and i gave it the go... now the phone its so smooth that I can't believe it... damn... And the battery over 20 hours with 5 hours screen lol... Well I'd just can't imagine what it will be with jb Linaro optimized and hey I won't ever use non Linaro rom again...

This. To be honest CM9/MIUI are gonna hold me over till jelly bean starts making its way into the branches. I'm banking on 4.1 being incremental at most anyways so it shouldn't take too long. I really can't see Google revamping again unless they do it for tablet mode only
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2

Well, if it offers improvements in areas that one my phone need to be improved, certainly I will make the early transition, however, I will probably wait until there is a custom ROM and Kernel or two available.

As soon as a stock/rooted version for yakju hits either Google's factory image page or XDA, I'll try it out as soon as I can.

As it seems to be JB will be a point update, basically a polished and tweaked ICS , so stability should not be in question, so i guess as soon as it's officialy released there's no reason not to go for it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I'm sticking with 4.0.1 yakju for the next week and incrementally updating to 4.0.4. I've had to many problems with random rebooting... so testing different theories out first.
If Jellybean addresses the random reboot issue (still haven't found anything concrete on XDA or other about the potential causes) I'll likely give it a shot right away. Worse case scenario I revert back to my .1 backup (or whichever stable version my phone is running on at the time).

I'm thinking of waiting for a CM. CM9.1 anyone?

Well as soon as I get the update notification... I'll take it. Why wouldn't you? Its not like there are going to be massive bugs or anything. If there's a serious problem it wouldn't be released.

CyanogenMod 10 Galaxy Nexus Nightlies? Performance?

Hey guys, an xda n00b here,
I really want CyanogenMod 10 for my Nexus, (not asking for ETA), but I don't have time to keep up with instabilities, etc. Does flashing the nightly every day take time? Or is it really easy?
How is the performance and battery life of CM10 over stock?
Yep, that's basically it.
Thanks in advance
-Sahil

The CM team focuses on stability.
If an average user wants a Rom to flash literally once and never have to flash again...I'd flash CM10.
You'll end up with very very few bugs.
As far as installing, check post 2 of the guide linked in my sig if this process is new to you.
And updating nightlies doesn't take much time, no.
The general custom if you're already on a CM nightly would be to download/flash/wipe cache. Users generally don't wipe data often with the CM nightlies...but it's a good idea to do it occasionally, at least.

CM 10 is not stable yet. If I were you I would stick with stock rom until CM10 gets stable version or at least RC version.
Personally, I'm using AOKP JB Build 1 and franco.Kernel Milestone 5. It's stable, fast, great battery life and it's my daily driver now.

Thanks for replying!
So even if its not stable yet, you think I should flash it?

As of 24-8 its stable, don't know what issues that guy having but I'm using it and it works just fine. Just remember to clean wipe the first time you flash cm10.
Also don't have to flash daily, I do it weekly or when major update is done. I check change log to see what has been updated weekly.

Nightly builds are daily compiled builds from source. This version therefore has the latest bleeding edge features & tweaks, but it is also the mostly likely to have bugs and issues. This version is not for general use.

Hi there.
Just to let you know that I went from the Foxhound ROM over to CM10 (build from the 24th) and I tell you how good this ROM is.. no stability issues so far.
3g, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc all seems to be working well.
Just testing the battery life at the moment and switch the performance to On Demand (preference). Also not laggy like the previous ROM with scrolling, unlock and typing. Screen transitions seems quick.. All that with the CPU running at stock 1.2ghz (old ROM = 1.35).
Cheers.

CM 10 is the best that happened to my nexus
Question for everyone: Where can I find the changelog of CM10 for Galaxy Nexus Nightlies?
Just last week I installed the CM 10 nightlies on my GSM nexus and to my surprise its extremely stable. I haven't seen it crash even once and now I'm hooked on updating it daily (won't recommend to everyone). But the nightlies are very stable, daily updated.
Compared to the stock ROM CM 10 adds so many features that I wanted. Things like having Reboot, Screenshot in the power options. Having power buttons in the drop down menu (WiFi, GPS, syncing etc. instead of only on the home screen), adding app shortcuts to screen lock etc.
Overall its way better than the stock rom but doesn't make you go away from what you're used to. Jelly Bean is fast and awesome.
Good luck,
Nitin

I LOVE this ROM, and I have had no issues with it so far. I just wish it had some more features as AOKP had, like NavBar settings.
Do we delete old nightly files after flashing the latest nightly?

So you do keep a few? I mean I think it would make sense to keep at least the last one, right, so it could recover settings and stuff? Correct me if i'm wrong, lol.

Please can someone try and change my mind because I'm only disappointed and let down every time I try one .

What exactly are you disappointed about? Try the latest official builds of cm10 or aokp. Not a nightly or a kang.. an official build.

Try Paranoid, it looks pretty wild!

SHHHH!!!! You're not allowed to say that!
I've done the same as you. The only change I've made to stock is run nova launcher to make it a bit more purdy and personalized.
Minco is pretty nice since it's really close to stock but faster, but in the end I'd rather just run stock for peace of mind (not that Minco was unstable).

Stock based roms perform the best in my opinion. Although Bamf Paradigm and Wasabi Miui run well for me, if I run them with trinity 1344 kernel.
IMO It seems like CM and AOKP stay in the nighties phase for way too long, and bugs and stability issues take too long to fix. This has been the case on most phones I have owned. They are great innovative roms though. I find it rare when a Rom with loads and loads of features runs as good as stock based roms do. I love having features, but performance, stability and battery life are above all features for me. I can just find mods myself anyways and add them as I need.

If stock is what works best for you, run stock, there's nothing wrong with that.

Why do you want people to change your mind?

The last ROM flashed was team baked black ROM it was OK but the force issues became very annoying .I was just asking am I doing something wrong when flashing ?

Fast reply, I don't even know what that is but anyway, Android comes down to user preference, if you enjoy stock, then rock it dude, I've tried only a handful of roms here but stock gives the most solid performance 9 out of ten times. granted I'm running Slimbean now, but I like to flash every two weeks and this rom is pretty great aside from bootup time XD.

I've tweaked till the cows come home but I think Google have totally cracked it to be honest and early reports about 4.2 seem to suggest they've went one more step in terms of speed and look .The quick reply feature is in cm10 when you receive a SMS you get a pop up window at anytime so you can instantly reply ,must be enabled tho .

What ROM are you currently using?

With so many ROM's available, I'm curious as to which one is getting the most love.
I haven't listed all ROM's. I've gone through Development forum and the Galaxy Nexus Index and picked what I think might be the most appropriate based on replies/posts in the individual ROM's thread as well as when the ROM was last updated.
If you could also post below why you are using the ROM you voted for that would be great.
If you are using a ROM not listed in the poll, please mention it below also.

AOKP
Not only it is super fast and smooth with Franco Kernel, but also it has tons and tons of customization in this ROM that I love. Also the look on my friends face when I show them my unicorn and swagger toggle is priceless
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel

I am loving AffinitySeries from Android Developer Alliance. It hasn't been updated for almost 2 months but it doesn't need one. I have been running it for a month and a half and have never had an issue. It is solid, fast and has just enough customizations. I am running it with Franco's kernel and Dustin's Cobalt theme and haven't found a combination yet that tops it.
As if having a great ROM wasn't enough, ADA is also a very pleasant and professional group. The devs are active in their threads and will answer questions promptly and without condescension.

Give it a try it is super stable and has also a ton of customizations! Updates are on a weekly basis or faster if there is a severe bug!

Lots of options, but mainly because its just different. Both my gf and a close friend have the gnex so it seems like I'm surrounded by aosp devices.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Hands down Paranoidandroid. With every update comes brand new features, not to mention smoothness and speed improvements. After using this rom initially back on my Droid Incredible 2 I immediately rooted and flashed this on day 1 of owning my Gnex, there is no way I can go back to using anything else, this rom has more customizations and options than anything I have ever used in the 3 1/2 yrs I've been using android.
To top that off PA is typically updated once and sometimes twice in a week, besides CM10 nighties I can't think of a rom that gets that much attention and brings brand new options with every update! The fact that Maguro, Toro and Toroplus are all overseen is the other thing that makes it so amazing, most developers build roms for maguro and us over in toro and toroplus land have to wait quite awhile to get our port if it ever happens.
Bottomline, this rom is AMAZING!

Rasbean and lean because well its just so smooth
