if you could choose your best rom by using the poll and then leaving a comment on why you use that rom
Thank you
P.S. im sorry i know ive missed out alot of roms but when creating this thread i only selected 6 poll options for some reason and i dont know how to change it :S aha sorry

haha nice!
Well, about the post. You will see what rom is most installed, not the best
The best rom is the rom you like. In my case, the best rom is MIUI

I am using a ROM that is not part of your poll which I really like. It is JB Sourcery and is truly the MOST customizable ROM I've ever seen...

BAMF! :good:
I've been using the Vicious CM10 kangs rom and its been great. I used Vicious ASOP for a while too without any issues either. Both are very stable and good on battery life too.

i can't even run this rom as a toroplus user, but i know you're right
I've been using Vicious JB 4.1.1 and loving it.
i cant believe there are so many of these threads and at least 3 new ones a day... and i cant believe its not butter
I used the Vicious CM10 Nightlies for a while and they were pretty good.
Today I just flashed the AOKP Build 1 and I like it a lost so far but can't speak to its performance/batterylife.
Apoligie
Sorry for starting this thread i just wanted to create it to see the best roms starting from now... and i wanna keep updated on it
if you have a problem about it then dont read the thread and dont comment on it :S im not telling you to read it or make a vote i was only asking if you could so take your stupid comments elsewhere cause i dont even care i just wanted other peoples opinions on the latest roms!!!!!!
Sorry again
Thanks to everyone posting there favorite rom though and voting i really appreciate it
AOKP Build 1.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I'm using AOKP JB Build 1 right now and loving it but I was using Paranoid Andriod JB alpha builds before and they were pretty good too considering they were alpha stage. Have a look at the threads for each ROM that interests you and read some of the more recent feedback from users to see what problems (if any) people are having. Most importantly, make a nandroid and give the ROM(s) a go. Try each for a couple of days or a week and you'll find what works best for you.

I don't understand why everyone is so against answering these questions from their personal experiences. He's not asking what the best rom is.
For me personally, I have found infamous to be the most stable.

Because in general all the ROMs are perfect for someone not everyone. Your idea of perfect is yours not his. One person might not like what the cook/dev did to that ROM or added or took away. There is no perfect/best ROM.

That's also up to him, depends on what he needs and uses. I find a certain type of ROMs to be extremely stable for my uses and my friend is the opposite cause of what he uses daily. Besides its in the rules that these threads are frowned on.

OP, all comments are valid, but you are the one that has to flash and figure out...
There are too many variables to see what is best/stable. Your apps vice my apps...

I'm not sure how in the world a stock Samsung/AT&T 4.2.2 Rom is going to outperform CarbonRom or Beanstalk.
And no I'm not looking for a debate about AOSP and TW Roms. Just an opinion.
The release date of 4.2.2 is still unknown for Note 2.

That sure nails it down.
They point out :
The update will bring with it some new features along with fixing bugs. Owners will be able to resize apps, change their colour and their layout.
Welp, I can do that already with Roms that are built they way they should be out of the box.
CarbonRom with Crossbreeder and Xposed installed is insane.
I may flash back to be able to receive the update.
But it'll probably make me want to kick my own ass, and I'll restore back to heaven.
EDIT: Then again, I wasn't thinking. Once Team Zodiac and our other quality devs get their hands on the 4.2.2 source, the heavens will open up more.

And after all that all I have to say is one simple thing Spen.
I am running AOSP right now the alternatives for the Spen are still nowhere near the seamless integration on a TW Rom, no discussion there.
If you dont care aobut the Spen then sure, who cares about TW Roms.
I get improves fps on games and benchmarks with the current ROM at the cost of some spen functionality...I wish i didnt have to choose.
Err..... did you even read what I wrote?
I got a note because of it size and spen. I still can use it just not everything is as seamless as with tw ROMs. In fact I may just go back to one so no idea how you interpreted what i wrote that way seriously....

4.3 is not worth the trouble to change focus from 4.2.2 to 4.3. 4.2.2. Roms are much more stable and there is no point in having to iron out the problems with 4.3. At least in my opinion.

Why not stay on 4.1.2? Or ICS? If stability is your thing then stick with TW. Two months from now you'll be on 4.3 and glad that the dev community worked hard to put it together while saying the same thing about KLP...

4.2.2 has a number of changes significant enough for me to flash a 4.2 ROM every once and a while. But not 4.3. Stability isn't my thing. The trade off between stability and features is my thing.

Just curious because your comment made no sense to me but the could just be me. 4.1 TW is loaded with features and extremely stable, 4.2 AOSP is kanged together but rather stable. 4.3 kanged together, plenty of bugs and not stable.
Now you saying you would trade features for stability which makes no sense because what good are features if you can't benefit from them because it's unstable. But the roms with the most features are TW roms and the most stable. Just confused about what you said cause you say one thing then go in a different direction.

I never even referred to TouchWiz. I am comparing AOSP ROMS. Particularly 4.2, and 4.3. In that comparison I concluded that 4.3 did NOT have a significant number of changes, and, or added features to put time into making 4.3 more stable, when 4.2 is already significantly more stable. Make sense? Basic logic. Never even brought up ToucWiz people.

I totally love this phone but I was really excited for the development aspects since its basically nexus 5 with a different shell.

Development is under way. There are 2 devs working on a CM 10.2 ROM right now and another working on a version of CleanROM for us. Its going to take some time and the phone hasn't been out for a week yet.
Also the CM 10.2 ROM was removed because the build was not tested and verified by the dev to be working and they removed the links to it in case it caused a potential brick to the phone. People who downloaded the ROM say it had GPS lock and rotation issues so you don't want to download the ROM anyways. In fact they saved you the hassle of reverting back to stock or a nandroid backup. Read the last few posts in that CM 10.2 thread to get a sense of the situation.
I am not worried at all about the "lack of interest" in this phone. You have to remember that not all the potential devs have received the phone yet such as garwynn who probably just received the phone today. Lets give the potential devs some time to come out with new ROMs and other mods. There are enough ways currently to mod the current stock ROM anyways through Xposed and other mods like (increase volume).
Its only been a week. Our device was rootable even before Sprint released it. I'm not worried. For now I've been using Greenify + Titanium Backup to keep my phone in battery/performance BEAST MODE.

Install G2 xposed and you'll see you can do a lot of the customization yourself. There's also an xposed kitkat theme in the theme's section by ock. The device is already fast and ignoring aosp roms, you can customize the stock rom to your liking.

I guess I didn't think about the fact that the other variants had been out for a few months already, but I really wasn't trying to comparing them. I was just noticing that compared to devices I've had in the past (even the SGS II which I hated lol) had some things pop up pretty quickly. Also make sure that no one takes this as me complaining, just thinking out loud here.
And as to the xposed stuff, Im atually just interested in some slimed down stock roms and AOSP, but thanks for making sure I knew about it
