For me having tested only a couple for the last week, and being new to Android, Paranoid Android is the way to go. Been able to change DPI/ UI layout per app is priceless, all I need to complete it is figure out stuff about kernels and flash one that let you undervolt CPU/GPU to max battery life. As dingokevin said, you have to figure out yourself, give PA a try and see if you like it.

on the CM10 build that's available today, the feature like getting a small dot on the screen when hovering the pen over , is gone. I guess its because CM ROM has removed all bloatware (like S Note).
I have no idea if the special pen features will come back on a later build of CM10. i really hope so
CM10 nightly build is ready for N7100! Out today guys. :good:

Been a CM user for many years. No way am I running it on GN2.
Not needed for speed...and bloatware easily dealt with via Titanium...but mostly, the Samsung NOTE features are just too cool. CM in addition to being a mute point on this device, negates what makes the Note the Note.

Los is most likely caused by the modem. I suggest running the el29 modem with whatever ICS ROM you choose.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using Tapatalk 2
If you want rock solid stability I suggest running blazer 4.1, which is gingerbread. But if ICS is what you want, you could run stock ff18. In addition, all of the custom ROMs based on ff18 should be more or less the same in terms of stability. Choose whichever one you like.

You could give Blu Kuban a try.
Also, give different modems a try but make sure she always updates her PRL & Profile after every modem flash, then give it time to settle in. If that one doesn't get her speeds up, try another using the same method above. Sometimes you have to try the whole lot before you find what works best in your area. Again, update PRL & Profile after every modem flash, don't just give it a few minutes or hours to prove its worth, give it a day or so then flash another if that one doesn't do well.
Whats stable on here for one may not be for another. I use CM9 nightlies with no issues at all. Honestly if you want a rom for someone that does not care about flashing go GB throw a theme on it and let them enjoy life.
Anything else you will find yourself tinkering with it. although I am on the nightly from 6/21 and have not looked back.
I'm a big fan of tFF18. I find it stable and nimble. Easy to work with and good theming.

Same here. I've been following the AOKP builds from when they were first brought here up till now.
CM 9
EDIT: No matter what ICS rom you choose, be VERY careful to read, understand and follow the installation instructions. Otherwise, you're going to end up with a very expensive brick. Also, check your MD5s.
-----------
I've been using CM 9 since v.A5, and I'm quite pleased with it. I can't say I've had stability problems with it, but the setup process can be tricky.
You have to get a GPS lock and update your Profile / PRL either right before upgrading or using their multiboot rom option (which worked perfectly for me).
Also, you need to remember to install the google apps separately, but I believe all AOSP roms have a similar requirement.
However, once you've passed these initial hurdles, the ROM runs great. I have no complaints and use it as my daily driver. I use Maps, 4G, Netflix, a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and so on. My family teases me that whenever I'm not in front of a computer, I'm in front of my phone, so that should give you some insight on how thoroughly I use it.
Currently I have been using touch of sgsIII rom for about a week with no issues at all it has the voice talk and music player and messaging from the samsung galaxy s III and I am really liking the feel of this rom the only issue is that the sound effects are not working in the music player but I can personally deal with that til they find a fix other than that great work team rejects on this rom and I recommend it to anyone. But like said above one rom can work good for one and not another so give it a try and see how it works out for you.

I have four roms I rotate between, restoring and updating as new releases come out. I have had nothing but great experiences with all these, sans the occasional burp. Once I had them set up the way I like, all have been trouble free. If I had to pick the high points of each I would say Agat's rom is the best all around with great speed and battery life. Venum Ice has an original color scheme and lots of bells and whistles. M'ICS feels very similar to Ice to me but has a Cyan color theme. Blu Kuban is like a different animal in that it has an updater built in that lets you change tons of visual and functional settings.

It's refreshing not having to keep up with the grind every now and then. Especially with the holidays upon us, time is scarce and free time is better spent doing other things than dealing with crackflashing habits.
Exactly. What now is what annoys me about xda. It makes it seem like people don't actually enjoy their phone. I actually found xda by mistake back she. I had a vibrant. I actually left for a while because I was pretty much the same way. Flashing and reseting y phone pretty much daily trying out new ROMs. When things got stable I asked the same question as op. Realized I never actually used my phone. I don't root very much but come here for advice and for new news. I've tried flashing roms but I actually use my phone and have a life to live. Be happy things are stable. That's my advice. Its an addiction.

Lol actually, i do use my phone. Back when we had ICS, there was jelly bean but i kept going back and fourth between jelly bean AOSP and stock TW ics. found that TW was solid but had a few issues with Bluetooth which i used with my Bluetooth headsets. So I was on AOSP and back and fourth. I have been on JB TW since it dropped and haven't flashed since. lol so i guess im just adjusting to not flashing weekly. But even when flashing, i would use my phone pretty often. for now, im going to just stay here, add the mods that i want, and look for the ones i need (skip track with volume rocker w/ screen off) and then i will delete the app from my phone and come here every 2 weeks.
Now we wait for 4.1.2 so we can get multi view like the note 2.
Other than that, most of us will have moved on to SGS4 by the time the S3 gets 4.2.

I thankfully got this out of my system back with my Vibrant. At some point I just realized that I was doing... Nothing with my phone. I'd switch out ROMs and the like, but ultimately.. I just went back to stock with a custom kernel and a few tweaks for speed and performance. But mostly had it set to spiffy fast and ultra usable.
I've done the same with my GS3. I didn't care much for the ROMs I have seen out there, so went back to stock. Now I have Jelly Bean on here, with a custom kernel and rooted. Got it running outrageously smooth and fast. What more do I need? My phone is as good as it is going to get until 4.2 and hopefully whatever comes after that.
So I use it. I show it off to people. I achieve great computing and processing needs when out and about. I like my phone. I don't need anything more out of it than what I got.
I just hang out at XDA for if anything new ( feature, app, etc. ) comes out that seems neat, if an error crops up, or quick fixes.

Hi there, I'm a long standing G2 user switching over to a Galaxy Note II (in the mail). Shopping around for what ROM I should try first, kind of having a hard time wrapping my head around features I should care about and where each ROM is in the stability and completeness sense.
I'm more into the stock Android look and feel, so guessing TouchWiz is garbage I don't want. NFC sounds fun and I want LTE to work once the Tmo network is turned on. Maybe play with some wireless charging. Also really looking forward to having a device with a stylus again, so what S-Pen stuff should I care about? Also are any of the other "S" labeled apps and features from the stock ROM desirable (S-Beam for instance)? Additionally I want to eventually use the thing with an external keyboard and mouse through that nifty dock.
Basically I'm looking for ROM recommendations, got any?
Thanks!
i would recommend you to Jedix9 and Jedi8 ROM...try them out first if they fit your desires

I'm not saying that AOSP based ROMs aren't absolutely great (because I am running the CM10.1 Nightlys ) but TouchWiz is actually pretty freaking great. I am an AOSP fanatic but I still loved TouchWiz. The only reason I am on CM10.1 is because I just wanted to try it because my previous phone only had CM10, not 10.1.
I will say though, the stock TouchWiz launcher did not have enough options for my so I used Nova Prime. That made it feel like an AOSP ROM from the future because it looked and felt a bit like stock Google code but had all the TouchWiz features I loved.
Basically all I am saying is at least give the new TouchWiz a shot before you wright it off because you may find that you enjoy it.
Happy flashing
I too would recommend jedi 8 as well. It's close to stock (wifi calling), and battery life seems improved.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Im on JediMaster 8 running perseus kernel. Both are a great combo for battery life. However, I do enjoy me some AOSP.
One question you should ask yourself when deciding if you should use AOSP or TouchWiz is "Am I going to use the S-pen frequently?" If so, go with TouchWiz, if not then I'd say try some of the AOSP ROMs
Jedi X9 with Color HD theme is really cool, very stable and without losing any stock functionality except wifi calling (which if youd rather have then use Jedi Master 9 which dropped last night) basically roms are the same, functionality wise
Top 3
1/ (tie) Jedi X9 or JM9
3 CM 10.1 nightlies (non TW) or some of the debloated stock roms
Recommend looking into kernals too, sometimes they are updated before the rom is and you can OC and UV for more battery/performance

Some roms do incorporate TW but as you mentioned you are more "aosp/aokp" inclined so youll lose out on several features (unless you flash TW based roms)

I've got to second the recommendation to check out Tweaked (as well as extend a hearty "Thanks!" to dwitherell for his work)! It's simply a rock-solid implementation of the TW features plus, well, some excellent customizable tweaks One of the first roms that I flashed was from the Jedi X series, but soon after realized that I needed wifi-calling in my apt. so decided to check out Tweaked (1.0 at the time) before flashing Jedi Master, and have stuck with it ever since. Currently very happy / impressed running Tweaked 1.3 with the Perseus 32.1 kernel.

LiquidSmooth>TouchWiz
I would suggest sticking with Android 4.2.2 since TouchWiz MC3 only has a few extra features which to me are mainly gimmicks while AOSP 4.2.2 is much better with a lot less loaded crap on your phone and it's easier to modify in my opinion.
I personally don't use Nightly ROMs since they tend to be unstable which is not worth it. I am currently using LiquidSmooth version 2.2. The great thing about LiquidSmooth is that it's based on Cyanogenmod+AOKP+SlimRoms+Extra=LiquidSmooth. Also with less bloat that means that there is less extra stuff sucking on your battery in an AOSP ROM. A very smooth, stable and fast ROM with no bloat unlike stock TouchWiz.
Or if you want to stick with TouchWiz I would recommend a custom ROM such as strongsteve's Odexed Blue ROM, very nice ROM and much more professional and nicer looking compared to other modified TouchWiz ROMs in my opinion.

Yeah, I suppose you can remove the bloat manually but I find that a bit annoying. But it depends on what you like and want. Personally, my phone would pick up like 5/10 calls on TouchWiz while on AOSP ROMs it picks up all calls I make. I don't know why that is but hey it works. :laugh:

The only TW feature that I really miss is the stock video player. I loved floating that guy around and found it really easy to use. I tried the other floating players on the Play Store, but didn't really like them all that much. I currently use MXPlayer and allow the audio to play in the background. I deal with it, but once in a blue moon I'll restore my stock rom just to experience the glory of the floating video player.

I suggest that if you're interested in a ROM, go ahead and try it out. Different people like different things, so it's up to you to find out what works for you. With Titanium Backup and nandroid backups, it's easy to switch to different ROMs without losing critical data.
Personally, I ROM jump a lot. If I see something that looks interesting, whether it's 4.1, 4.2, TouchWiz, or AOSP, I'll check it out and run it for a few days. If I don't like it, I'll either nandroid back or flash another ROM I found interesting. That's what I love about Android.
My bad, I'm working on a ROM as well! So when I get done you should give my ROM a try...I'm trying to make it fully stable

IMHO, if I wanted an AOSP ROM I would have gotten a Google Phone. Buying a brand name phone will always come with brand-specific bloat.

Except, you can remove ALL the bloat....
Or flash AOSP

Yea, but the nexus 4 isn't on sprint (yet?) And the galaxy nexus is pretty old specs wise. If one person wanted the latest and greatest, and they were on sprint, it would most likely have to be a brand phone...

okay if you want the most stable stick with a touchwiz ROM. there's really only two options right now that are 4.3 that's Jedi and swarm Rom. also I noticed you just fixed the problem flashing roms for what a day maybe two, so that means you went to six different roms in those couple days. They take some time to settle in there's a lot of people who say that these are very stable maybe if you ran through them all it's because you're not letting them get settled in to actually enjoy them. Myself I'm still on swarm ROM with my own customization. Also this thread will be locked soon as users are expected to research for themselves as best to me is different then best to you.

@kintwofan your right, the most stable 4.4 Roms will maybe be Omni ROM and Cm11 bean stalk is good for customizing and what not but lags at a point like any ROM and gummy ROM has force closes at times , and bam pro is great but only if it was for 4.4 KitKat . and I personally don't like touchwiz the interface is horrid
