I'm looking for an GB or ICS (or JB if it's around yet) rom that is the "purest" form of the android experience, a la Sense-less. Is AOSP it or is there something I'm missing?
I think savocaFTW posted a pure gb aosp rom a while ago. Don't think he created thread for it. Other gb one that comes to mind is SalvageMod. Almost pure stock.
The best pure rom I can think of is jmz's unofficial cm9. It is pure android and it is very stable.

I think this is correct. I flashed this ROM and have been loving it for the last two weeks.

I just got an Incredible 2 to replace my Nexus One (new job, new phone), and I'm trying to find a stable, updated and minimal ROM. I have been going through the DEV forum, and I see quite a few choices, but I don't see anything that's minimal. Something similar to this.
Thanks for any suggestions.
I might give Liquid Smooth a try- AOSP GB 2.3.7 built from source and very minimal. It's in ROM Manager too.
Im not a fan of rom manager, but I like most AOSP.

It looks like a nice ROM, but I don't think it's minimal. Are there any other suggestions? In the mean time, I'll just root my current phone and remove the bloatware.
Thanks
OMFG is probably the most minimal AOSP.

We don't really have a pure vanilla gingerbread rom for the inc2 but Omfg is a great rom too.
Well, there's OMGB, and there's OMFGB, the first being plain old gingerbread android, whereas the second is custom gingerbread.

The other thing I need is a rom that does GSM so I have world phone capabilities. From what I read about Liquid Smooth, it does not work.

Want to jump on my first jb rom. Can't decide between xenon or vicious. Anyone who.tried both which do u like better and why ? Thanx
I prefer stock.
Something about Jelly Bean being a recent release makes me feel it is necessary to wait at least a month before using a custom built ROM. Give it time to tweak any issues out.
I prefer XenonHD.Been using their ROM's since ICS. Rock-stable,smooth,fast and great performance for me.It's pretty awesome.If you don't like Xenon, then just flash vicious
Simple as that.
Thanks its greatly appreciated. Stock works just fine does everything I want. But I want to try jb lol
And I don't feel like waiting for Verizon's OK

I think he meant stock JB. Not ICS. And he is right, not a single modded ROM is going to give you the stability that stock one has. Stay with that I recommend you and when CM10 finally goes out, you'll see XenonHD get a very stable version.

I disagree, JellyBelly is far superior than Stock IMO
Jelly Belly is working great for me too.
What is the most stable AOSP JB ROM at the moment? My fiance just got an E4GT and she wants an AOSP Rom like I have on my GS3, but she needs something at least somewhat stable. What would you guys recommend? Thanks in advance!
Code name or paranoid Android are both good
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Agree, it comes down to which you prefer. Try both and see what she likes
Doing research for a friend, what's the general census on CM10 stable 2012-11-13?
What do you folks here think is more stable and fast with performance options? What do you think the most stable ROM is for both? Thanks in advance

I can't help you in ROMs because I always run my own compiled one from AOSP.
4.2 seems fine with me like 4.1 in terms of stability. I haven't run into any major issues that I can think of as a disadvantage of 4.2 actually I really like the toggles of 4.2
Check this thread for some information
From my experience, 4.2.1 Roms are all working really well and you can definitely make the upgrade. My personal favourite is the Paranoid Android rom!
4.1.2 roms are flawless but once you start using 4.2.1 you won't really wanna go back.
The only issue with 4.2 is the custom kernels aren't really that stable. Hope this helps

Actually, I was on 4.2.1 since release, and now I switched back to 4.1.2... I had too many problems with 4.2.1... battery drains, random reboots, freezing. etc
For the moment you better stay on 4.1.2 because the roms are more bugless and it is smoother too I am currently using cm10 an it is in my opinion one of the best with plenty of features and you can always flash the android 4.2.1 gapps like the camera and gmail,... above android 4.1.2
Yeah, I'm on cm10 as well
I think that the most stable CM10. Is very close to the AOSP, but there isn't a stable version both for the 4.1 and 4.2.
After all, the choice of the ROM is very personal. You have to try a lot of Roms and kernels until you are satisfied. It's the only way
I agree. I actually got the phone on 4.2.1 then rooted and been using Roms. Right now I'm on xylon its pretty solid I have just heard there are quicker Roms on 4.1 quick question. Since I am already rooted using a custom ROM all I would have to do is full wipe and flash a4.1 ROM if I decided correct?

My experience on stock kernel was fine. Anyone having issues on stock kernel? I was just saying that most of the time have MOST of the features port up, and they seem to work fine for me. Although maybe some of the butter is gone

Check out the dev thread there are a few good roms floating around for jb.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I have tried some of them, but which one is the best? Because I don't think I'd want to flash all of them.

^^^^ this.
And besides, most of the available Roms are equally stable / very soon to be stable.
Do a good flash, making sure to wait a while right after flashing, and all will be good.

You need Jedi Jelly 6. Its a Samsung Touchwiz ROM. I have had nothing but smooth performance.

I've really been enjoying the AOKP Jellybean. There are some minor issues with bugs being worked out with the nightlies, but overall it's dope!
I've been on CM 10.1 nightly 03/23 since that day and it's really nice. Everything works smoothly and CM is a pleasure.

Does the TouchWiz work on it?
touchwiz = jedy jelly or stock
aosp = cm

Infamous S2 is very good too.

I second this one. Jedi Jelly 6 is very smooth. My only issue with it is that it's based off of a leaked AT&T ROM.
I believe ptmr3 (the dev) is working on a new version that is based on the recent 4.1.2 release specifically for the SGH-T989.
I switched to an AOSP based ROM and I'm never looking back despite wifi calling being a cool feature, but I never used it. Anyway, I've been using 2.2 Slimstars which was pretty great. The updates seemed to be a little unstable like the camera not working. Is the new one, 4.12 pretty much fixed? And are there many changes with 4.2.2? I may try PACman. How's that stability wise? Stability and speed (I just want it to work without waiting you know?) are priorities.
ptmr3's Jedi Mind Trick JB 2.1 is by the the fastest and smoothest and glitch free rom out there
I have tried almost all roms of the ICS and JB flavour
personally I do not like non touchwiz roms
and all CM and AOKP 4.2 roms do not support MHL output or Bluetooth mouse properly
everything seems to work on JMT except for OP known issues
