Whats the most stable 4.0.4 based rom? I love AOKP and ive been running M4. But im looking for more of a newer system based rom. The battery life from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 i believe is a hell of alot better.
Flash the newer build of Aokp its rebased off 4.0.4. It's been out for quite a while

Android revolution HD 3.0.0 is awesome... although I think its pretty much the same as stock with a few minor tweaks.

Well you're like one of the only ones with issues. And the OP asked for a stable ROM , not a lame-not ROM. I'm personally running CM myself , just threw a suggestion let him test the waters and pick the best one that works for him.
MIUI

Official CM 9, is bulletproof stable. And has longest lasting battery life out of the dozen ROM's I have tried.
I can't even imagine how awesome RC1 of CM9 will be.

Another vote for stock 4.0.4. Currently using my own build of aosp. Deodexed, rooted+busybox. Quite stable.
I've bounced around to several of the roms mentioned here and I have to say all of them have been pretty stable. I've used several for over a month, others weeks at a time. I'm on MIUI now.
All are pretty stable. The differences are the extra features and speed. Some stagger while others zip along. I'm sure most work well now. Most will have the same common extra features normal in a custom rom. Most of them look and feel the same after you get it setup.
My problem is I'm getting bored. The roms are so stable and perfect that I have no reason to flash and most devs aren't putting out many updates because of this. Only CM9 and AOKP update nightly. Others go for weeks. I'm was running Axi0m from March 4th. I finally got the itch to switch to MIUI.
I'm waiting on Gummy to release a new rom and Team Bamf.

Looks like CM has more popularity then i thought. Ive ran with 4.0.4 AKOP but it seemed problemmatic to me. I also run francos kernel. And always update to the latest nightly.
Maybe ill give Build 31 a shot again. Im tempted to try CM9 now though. Although i thought with 2nd init roms like CM9, atleast thats what they called them when i had it on the droid x. It was feature filled, but battery life was terrible.
AOKP b31- Francos Kernel
I recently bought my Galaxy Nexus. Immediately rooted it and tried a couple of ROMS. I was looking for stability with features.
I finally installed Milestone 4 and found it stable; however, not smooth or fast enough as 4.03. After seeing all comments in the AOKP thread I tried B31. Have been using it for 3 days with Francos Kernel Milestone 2.
I love the features, stability and smoothness with which the ROM works and have had no FCs or reboots at all.
In my view-If you want stability with a host of features then, nothing better than AOKP B31 with Francos kernel.
All the best with the upgrade.
Bluetooth Problems
Did CM9 and/or AOKP get the bluetooth problems ironed out that I read was introduced by 4.0.4? That's one feature that has to work for me.
Using Liquid Smooth Rom 1.25 - Pretty stable and fast, a lot of neat features ...
Flashed imoseyon leanKernel v3.2.1 but my phone was heating up (Didn't even touch the processor speed or voltage ) now using Franco Kernel (Battery life not good) - Give it a try, maybe the above mentioned kernels might work for you ....
Now going to try Trinity .....

Hello, im thinking about flashing a new rom on my phone but just wanted to get some input on which is the fastest / stable rom for galaxy nexus LTE version.. any input would be great thanks
I'm using the latest ARHD and love it. I haven't tried anything else so can't compare but I have no reason to flash anything different considering this is pretty perfect.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I'm running GummyNex 0.2.9. It has great support (updated every night that I've been running it so far) and includes a few minor tweaks that add to the experience. Probably my favorite thing about it is that it includes an OC/UV kernel (that is kept updated, as well), so it makes installation of everything even easier.
I'm running zygotes 1.9 . Tried gummynex and arhd both excellent roms as well. Bench marked highest with zygotes so I am sticking with this for now. If you want stability #1 I'd say arhd.

Which ROM is has great battery life and is the most stable/fast. I do like mods too and stuff I just don't know which to flash to get the SMOOTHEST and fastest experience plus better battery life. I'm on a 4.0.2 right now I should probably go to a 4.0.3?
Sent from this GN on 4GLTE!
Personally, I'd go with ARHD. I've used it on my Transformer, and once I finally get around to flashing my device, that'll be the first (and most likely) only rom I put on it. Mike does a great job with his ROM's, and I haven't found one (especially on my Transformer) that I like more.
That's just my opinion. As usual, YMMV, but it's what I'd use.

can't go wrong with Peter Alfonso's Bugless Beast 4.0.3. His roms are always stable, he has a lot of experience. His roms are also on Rom Manager, which makes it easy too. He also has 4.0.2 & 4.0.1 builds
Galaxy Nexus Bugless Beast 4.0.3 cdma
What's the best overall? I'm on arhd and its pretty good just want to really know what's best. Arhd needs a 4.0.3.

The best IMO is Zygot3 v2.0 its really smooth and great on battery life. 2nd runner up is Android Revolution HD v2.1.2. I chose Zygot3 because battery, life the T9 dialer, notification toggles, advanced power menu and modded launcher that has a settings button.
I was using RootzBoat v4 from and it was great. I got the urge and flashed a CM9 kang.
IMO the CM9 kang is iffy. Works well but getting issues where apps just randomly close. Maybe a memory issue. It comes with notification toggles and the CM9 T9 dialer which is sweet.
Rootzboat was pretty smooth. I have a backup of it. I had a battery percentage mod and CM9 T9 Dialer. No notification toggles though.
Widgetsoid toggles are flaky. They work better in CM9.
Honestly just backup your current from and start going hog wild. Almost all rooms work with 100% functionality except MIUI. Some are just more stable then others.

I installed Android Revolution HD yesterday and I'm liking it, I'm noticing a bit less lag when scrolling between screens than I was on stock. I'm also seeing a little better battery life, I'm guessing 10-12 hours, where I was seeing 5-8 hours before. This ROM is worth checking out as there aren't a ton of options at the moment. This should hold me over until CM9!
Since I'm new to the Droid incredible 2, I wanna know what others think.
I'm running regular cm9 (aero) rite now and is fine, but I would like more options. I'm forcing my self to not flash ics miui
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
Honestly, cm9 is probably your best bet. Last I heard, our device specific aokp hadn't been updated in a while. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Sent from my mobile typewriter with tapatalk
I run the newest cm9 by areo an miui ics. The newest miui is the smoolest an quickest ICS rom with the .9ics kernel but is harder on the battery than cm9 by areo. Both are really good roms for me aokp is not as smool as either of the other 2.
Aokp has been updated to build 29, which is based off of 4.0.4. It's pretty good overall. Most of the bugs have been worked out. I've ran it for a couple of days now, and really can't complain. Having said that, I restored back to CM9 tonight due to Aeroeven's newest build 4-4-12.
I use Ics reloaded with CM9, so I get most of the custom stuff that I like in Aokp, so really, Aokp and CM9 both work great for me. It's more just a matter of which do I feel like using today.
Digging the 4-04 Aerovan build and the latest Nitsuj MIUI build. I think Aero's build is a tiny bit somoother than the MIUI, but not by too much. Nitsuj is new at MIUI, but these builds of his are getting better and better.
Try them both.
I was looking at the CM9 Nightly with Trinity kernel or stock IMM76I with Trinity kernel (if it works together...waiting for a reply).
I literally haven't used the phone yet besides speed test and then rooting/unlocking/custom recovery so....just curious to hear opinions
Aokp rom and James bond 3.1 kernel. They will give you stability, performance and fantastic battery life.

BAMF hands down with its stock kernal
We need a rule for 'best rom/kernel' posts. There is no such thing and there never will be.
Literally like asking, "whose the best comedian?" or "What's the best type of fruit?"
Its all subjective. Just read the description of each rom/kernel and determine which one is the best for your personal needs.
It's pretty to switch up rom/kernel combinations, especially when you first get your phone.
Try GummyNex and Franco kernel.
Also, I highly recommend you stay away from AOKP. Alot of the posts about "this phones laggy etc etc" keep coming from people who are running AOKP. Just avoid it, maybe dab in it.
CM9 is pretty good for me too with franco.
I think the best is liquid smooth and franco

Have you thought about paranoid android? I run it with james bond kernal.. its built upon cm9.. hacked nova/market.. its a tablet hybrid. That means it gives you the function of a tablet while still maintaining the aesthetics of a phone.. its really a great rom. Its in its early stages but is still one of a kind. Check it out in either the cdma or GSM section..

Stock ftw.
teach a man to fish, you feed him for life. teach a man to fastboot, and you create competency. and less threads on xda.
You should try black ice with lean kernel - great battery life, nice theme and smooth. I personally had random reboots with liquidsmooth and aokp but otherwise they were great roms.
I ran stock with Trinity kernel for a few hours then flashed Liquid 1.35 with Trinity and have been using it since. Really smooth and fast. Battery seems good thus far. Really enjoying it.
Coming from N1 as a ROM whore, so to speak, I'm sure I'll end up trying every which one.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

Hey redrum! Nice seeing you here!
I'm not much for changing ROMs on this phone yet since I don't feel there aren't many worth using. I'd like something more reliable than a nightly. I think you remember I did say many times I am no fan of nightlies when I had the N1
The best combo I've tried so far is either LiquidSmooth plus Leankernel or CM9 + franco (or stock cm) kernel. I don't think AOKP is all that fast.
Right now, though, I run stock everything besides CWM. Still unlocked bootloader and rooted, though. Gosh, I miss 4EXT recovery
Ive had mine for a month now and have been running cm 9 the whole time......mainly used franco....which was great...tried glados which didnt like my phone much.....switched to trinity recently....clear winner is trinity...for me. Easily the best performer.....and battery life has been better so far

Best ROM/Kernel combos

Kernels: Lean Kernel & Franco Kernels
Silky smooth Buttery Blazin' Fastness
Tons of customization

Yeah, so far I'm highly enjoying Liquid with Trinity. I was going to run stock with Trinity but I just couldn't resist lol.
I'm hoping Max brings 4EXT Touch to the GNexus as well. I posted in his thread in the N1 section. Would love that recovery here.

i used to run ICS on a stock ROM and it was quite stable. However, after trying some ROM's, I'm facing different problems on different days - sometimes battery just dies overnight, it freezes, chrome takes forever to open up, etc
Can someone recommend the most stable ROM on Jellybean?

soon as you stray from stock you increase the chances of bugs. The devs here rock im not knocking them, but if you are looking for no glitches or bugs just stay rooted stock or unrooted even. Or go bakc to what worked fine for you

I am running CM10 nightly and have had very few problems, one unexpected reboot...and one screen lock. Jelly Belly was quite stable...was using that b4 I moved to CM10. Jelly Belly is very close to stock.
You want stable JB ROM? Stick with Stock then. No custom ROM can be more stable or smooth than that. Also stock kernel will go really nice with it. Don't flash any custom ROM or kernel, if customization isn't what you want.

I'm using CM10 9/04 nightly + Trinity stable 35 (1344/384 I think?) and having no issues that I've noticed yet and battery life is doing well. First day of using this nightly and I'm at about 72% with an 4 hours on battery and an hour of screen time and a bit of Google Music. I have been on WiFi all day though.
Forgot to mention. This is the Verizon GNex with the stock battery.
Ran Liquid for the longest, and now I'm running Affinity. Give it a shot. Custom toggles, logical series, rock solid.

You could get Stock pre-release Jelly Bean ROM here.
Again, if stable and smoothness is what you need and not the customization, go with stock. I know pre-release means that it might be buggy, but from what I heard, it is very stable and feels like a official stable release.
Have a nice day
For sprint stable its tomorrow
I've been using xenon hd for at least 1 month now, and I can honestly say that I have never had a single problem, issue or bug with his rom. I've flashed at least a dozen others since Jb was released (don't want to say the names) and they all have had issues.
If stability is important, stay away from kernels. Unless you want to experiment.
LiquidSmooth RC7, if you're still looking.

My girlfriend has been using a few custom roms that I've flashed for her on her nexus, but shes been having multiple SOD's and random restarts and other stability issues on 4.2.1 roms (tried a few). I would like to know the most stable rom/kernel combination that you have used in the past, 4.1.2 is preferable if the stability is better. Just basic rom features is all she needs, but stability and speed is most important, I feel pretty bad for giving her roms with some issues that I haven't experienced on my sgs3.
Thank you all for the help
If you are looking for stability and simplicity go with mmuzzy French vanilla rom. Its smooth and stable. If u want stable with mods go with carbon rom. Its fast smooth and good on battery life.

yeah get her on 4.1.2 before she complains that you "broke" her phone lol. anyways i only use 4.1.2 roms right now, and i can tell you that jb sourcery 3.1 and liquid smooth 2.0 RC9 have both been straight shooters with great performance and not a single SOD in either of them
I just flashed MMuzzy's French Vanilla rom and my word is this thing awesome. Almost indistinuishable from stock. I wish I had a friend who had the GSM Gnex so we could compare features.
If you are looking for a few more features without losing stability I strongly recommend Nexus Evolution. The current version is from Jan 4 and a new version is likely to come out today or at least very soon

I wouldn't recommend bugless. BuglessPete hasn't updated it since Nov, so it is still 4.1.1.
I would recommend stock, rooted, deodexed. If you want features, then MMuzzy has been quite stable for me.
I just flashed Carbon V1 over XenonHD and it's running pretty smoothly. A lot of the 4.2 and mostly all of the 4.1 ROMs are pretty stable overall.
