AOKP and some kernel. I personally use Franco Kernel but look around and see what you like the most.

where can i find this rom? thanks for quick replies

Check the Dev section.
Goodluck!

Now with AOKP, use to be Slim. Both of them are great.

right now i think AOKP is the best. i used the official CM9 nightlies and there were pretty awesome, but still needs some features that i really need

Official CM9 Nightlies, Franco kernel.
Faster than the speed of light.

I'm using codename and just recently switched to francos 18.4 and now 18.6 kernel. I have zero complaints, the only thing I haven't gotten to work is Google plus hangout video chat but I haven't updated to the latest gapps yet. I bet I will try akop one day since it is so popular (maybe at milestone 4) but I have no reason to. Codename is killer smooth.

I was running ARHD but switched to the most recent CM9 nightly earlier this morning. CM9 is faaaaassst and so far no issues. Oh and I'm using the stock CM9 kernel.

When people say you have to try every from and find one for you, that's completely untrue for the galaxy nexus, once you try AOKP you won't change at least until MIUI is official for me

Definitely liking AOKP Milestone 3. Plenty stable for me, and adds some nice features not included with the stock ROM. Paired with GladOS 1.15 kernel. Butter smooth, ~3+ hours screen on time with the stock GSM battery.

apparently aokp is the boss rom

AOKP and lean kernel+ leantweaks

AOKP and Morfic Trinity kernel... I've been testing alot of kernel and trinity is by far the smoothest and as amazing battery life! And for those who use quadrant as reference ; I average 3700 on ondemand

Why is everyone who uses AOKP suggests other kernel? Is the kernel that comes with AOKP not good enough?

I personally got best battery life and smoothness using lean kernel after testing every other kernel. Different results for different people I guess so you'll have to try kernels out yourself and see what you find best

I've just switched to the Glados Kernel found on RootzWiki with AOKP, and it's the best combination I've tried so far I think.

So many to choose from!

Just got my Nexus (GSM) and there are so many ROMS to choose from!! Anyone have any favorites that I can try? I came from HTC Desire using Richard Trip's Villain ROM.

AOKP is the one with most tweaks, tho many say its kinda laggy, im using it and no lag for me

I've tried them all so far and my 2 favorite are ARHD and AOKP.
Try with these 2 first, aokp for 4.0.3 and arhd for 4.0.2.

He seems to update that ROM every week! I will grab build 28 - that one seems to be the latest. What is the difference between Milestone 4 and a build?

I couldn't stand AOKP! too much customization! hahaha. I'm on codename android

I would have to go with official AOKP all the way! I've got it on both my phones

I didn't like AOKP. Ran slow and ate my battery.
Gummy worked awesome regarding battery life. But Axi0m Hybrid is super fast.
Axi0m is a mix of AOKP and 4.0.4

Bugless Beast is the best IMO if you aren't looking for a bunch of mods. Its rock solid stable, has toggles in the status bar and gives great battery life. Run it with trinity kernel though, best experience I've had so far.

It says nightly, but he releases new builds every week or more, but no need to always upgrade, I just flashed the March 16th build and I don't see any reason to upgrade unless he adds some crazy new features, because it's really great right now.
All roms are updated nearly every week or 2, you don't have to upgrade though, if you want a ROM that has no development then go with one of those roms that hasn't been updated for a month or 2.

What is the fastest JB rom 4.1.1 for GSM Galaxy Nexus?

Hello everyone,
I wanted to know what was for you the jelly bean's rom 4.1.1 faster and smoother for Gsm Galaxy Nexus.
I'm using the Bigxie Deox. with Triniy Kernel 384-1344 (I prefer it to the Franco's for the best colors but the Franco's performance is the best) and is very fast but if you know the fastest rom, the advice is welcome.
Maybe you can publish a benchmark with Antutu of your rom. (but with cpu clock speed 1.2ghz)
Thank you.
My Bench ( noop+interactive govern) is...

Your really asking what rom gets the highest benchmark scores aren't you? I also use the same rom as you currently with fancos kernel and I really can't imagine how anything on my phone could be smoother. Flashing another rom to get a 'faster' experience doesn't seem possible in my opinion so I'd personally say it's a pointless question (unless of course you just want a big benchmark number).

Yes, i mean the rom gets the highest benchmark scores. I asked this question because I would be curious to know the benchmark scores of Euroskank by morphic and androidMe 1.1 rom.

benchmarks really matter. /sarcasm.

I was thinking cyanogenmod 10 and found paranoid android ..which is based off cm10 ....in terms of speed,performance and buttery smoothness...which one would be faster?......I would love the speed....but the paranoid hybrid features are pretty cutting edge stuff....

Just got paranoid android....its should have more performance tweaks than the stock jelly bean since its based on cm10 right?

Best All-Round ROM+Kernel Combination on Jelly Bean?

What are some of your deadly combinations in terms of JB ROMs and kernels for the GNex?
I've got:
ROM: Jellybro CM10
Kernel: Jame Bond 3.3
Never encountered anything better than this.

Jellybro + Kejar gapps + Franco kernel

+1 Really haven't found something like what I had on ICE (Rascream + Franco). So far I've tried SuperRom, AndroidME, Thunderstick and Bigxies Stock ROM all of them with Trinity Kernel and Franco Kernel.

James Bond 3.3, Air Kernel r177, Franco 223 are all super smooth for me on the latest Modaco JR4.

CM10 [jellybro] + kernel of your choice (franco or trinity)

I was using black jelly bean + Franco. Was smooth and fast! Loving the dark theme.
But I just switched to CM10Hybrid ParanoidAndroid 1.8
Using the tablet mode. Its a nice change. Different. Paired it with Trinity 537GPU alpha32. I like! Then I just added the paranoid darkness blue theme. That was the icing on the cake.
I'm new to ROMs. Is trinity the only kernel that has a blue tint to it? I feel like i can't go back to the yellowish stock tint. Lol

MoDaCo latest with Franco kernel..
No bugs, no lag and more importantly no slow downs over time.

Why would the stock ROM have lag? Everyone seems to have this assumption that your average dude who does some Android development in the spare time that his real job affords him will make a better ROM/kernel than Google's highly skilled engineers that do this as their full time job. Stock ROM is awesome. Custom ROMs and kernels aren't needed to reduce lag or anything like that but to use different mods or features that are not part of stock. Everyone will say this and that kernel gives them better battery life but I really don't think undervolting or whatever has much of an effect. It's all about the screen and your connection quality. And of course how often you're waking your phone and using it.

Right now the stock ota with the trinity kernel is amazing!

Running fitsnugly's CM10 jellybro and the kernel that came with it.
It's lovely!

Just run what I'm running... smh, he didn't ask.what everybody was running.

There is no possible way to answer this question. The only way to find what's "best" is to try them for yourself.

No issues with cm10.1 kernel. Tiny's kernel out performs, that's all.

AK Kernel Diamond Edition v33 and Slim Bean. I pretty much crack-flashed my way through official Vanir nightlies, Atom, Commotio, unofficial Xylon and PA in the past two weeks. Slim Bean is the perfect combination of speed and features for me. AK Kernel is the best kernel I have ever run, concerning battery life and smoothness. I highly recommend it.

Sourcery and their stock kernel...
check out their tools section, you wont be disappointed!!

On cm10.1 nightly myself. I like it but it seem to use too much memory. I tried Franco kernel but was not very stable for me. Might try tiny as I see people like it.

People like and dislike all kernels. This thread will give a thousand different answers unfortunately.
Leankernel is good, maybe one of my favorites that I have used. On rootz the community is awesome though its quiet now. I think it's a good choice.

Thanks. Trying it now.

As my sig states, I'm running JellyBro CM10.1 nightlies (I update every week or so) and AK Kernel. I'm currently on AK Diamond v33. So far, it seems that Dynamic FSync is helping performance, though I need to let the phone get some longer uptime to be certain.

I'm currently running Carbon 1.6 with AK's Diamond kernel. Incredibly smooth even while underclocked. Not to mention I generally get pretty darn good battery life with Carbon. Sometimes up to 4.5 hours of screen on time with a 2200mah battery.

Where exactly can I find AK kernel? This is such a nooby question I just can't seem to find it
