What rom do you guys suggest. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

As the title says what roms do you guys like best. I don't have much time with work and my home business to try them out atm. And not having my note rooted is driving me nuts, its been 4 days since I got it, lol.

There's very little difference imo. Clean Rom is great if you want the most basic stock experience. If you want multi window feature, you'll have to use one of the others

Backing up the stock rom now. Going to try CleanRom. Thanks for the motivation, it didn't take much, lol.

Clean Rom is said to break LTE.

A lot of people have been reflashing back to stock form CleanRom due to problems with LTE.

Which rom are you using and why?

These threads are pointless. No rom is better than the next. We all have our reasons for using them. Please let's not start off this note 2 section with junk like this. Mods please review.

Yes but recommendations help. We're humans.. it helps when we communicate with others; jesus I don't get this whole control freak rule of not letting ppl post about their opinions/experiences on ROMs.

The post is not ment to see which rom is better! There are now 7 or 8 roms for our device, I don't want to flash all of them then figure out that the one I was using was best for my needs. So I wanted to know why people were using their specific rom and why because it could help people determine whether to flash that rom or not. So chill out!

I am using cm10 stable. It is a fine oiled machine. The only draw back for me is no option to save camera to ext SD card but that it. It feels like perfect, natural Google experience

That's why the dev puts the features in the op. So you can see if you want to flash. Then if you read a Page or two of the posts you can see what people are saying about it. Basically all rooms are the same at this point. Some just have extra mods or are themed. Try one... or two. Every one had different uses and preferences. So what I say is the best you may hate.

Does the S-Pen dot while hovering still show in CM? I was hoping that maybe that would be supported natively.

I would doubt it. The s-pen is a Samsung thing. AOSP doesn't support it. I THINK the guys working on a CM10 port here are trying to make it work though. I guess it will have to be some kind of CM10/Samsung Franken-ROM. lol
Been switching between Jedi and clean roms... Both are great roms. Been running jedi 6.1.2 for the last two days and have to say i love it. But i will be checking out clean rom 3.3 soon to see how it runs.
Jedi all the way.. It's a smooth and stable daily driver with everything you will need to get the most out of your Note 2
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 Jedi v6.1.2
Using Jedi X6.1.2 and have not seen a flaw.... I like to play around with different roms usually but it will take some miracle to move me off this one. Best of all worlds... using nova launcher touch wiz features and spen heavily. Happy guy here
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I tried Jedi rom first because I do not want to mess around with glitches and want as stable of a rom as possible that gives me the features I want. I will go into a rom thread and check the date of the OP's last update. Then I jump to that date in the thread and start reading about the latest release to see what people's opinions are. Everyone loved the Jedi rom and now I do to. There is not a single thing I can find that doesn't work with it. It is fast, stable and had the multi window feature that has not been released on my AT&T phone yet. Although flashing can be fun, I don't want to keep flashing all the time, so I want to be as stable as possible. Jedi for the win.
The only thing I didn't like about Jedi was the branding text on the bottom of the notification drawer and the lock screen. Anyway to turn those off?

I don't like it too. Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929217 make a backup!
I started with CleanROM but ended up switching to Jedi as well. Been running it since 3.1 and now I'm on 6.1.2. Very stable, great performance, can't find any excuse to flash another.
I'm sticking with stock unrooted with Nova launcher. I've spent way too many hours rooting/unrooting and flashing roms on my last two Android phones (SII Skyrocket & SIII) only to find out each rom had glitches. Stock has great battery life, works with the S-pen, and just works as it should.
That's what im doing but having a hard time not flashing or rooting !!!! I may have a breakdown soon lol

Jedi 6.1.2 is the best rom out there and i can promise you one thing, i have tried all of them but this rom is something else . go for it

[Q] what N7105 custom rom do you use/prefer and why?

i'm new to androids and would love to know what factors to consider before/when a costum rom.
forgive me if this question has been asked before.
Well, there's not much to choose from right now. And they're all pretty much just rooted stock roms.
I'm using deadman's LL4 rom right now and haven't had any issues.
All the cool stuff is in the N7100 dev forums. Starting to wish I got the non-LTE version now!

Synergy - Thank you

I cannot post over on the Synergy thread that I located as it is developers only and I completely understand. I am hoping the Synergy folks see my post here and my thanks.
I've had my SGN2 for a few months and have pretty much played with JB Domination. I finally had enough of what I felt was the blue everything being shoved down my throat and went back to stock. I think it is one of the best ROM's out there but not if it forces you to accept all of it's programming and colors much like the SGN2 itself. This is my opinion.
Synergy is nice!! It gets ride of a lot of crap on the phone, it is very, very quick, it gives me the tether that I need. No complaints. I liked it so much that I actually sent in a small donation, something I typically do not do often on things like this.
I will say I am running V14 as it that seemed the heaviest in use. There is a v32 version but my phone kept turning off and had to have a battery pull to get it back online.
If you liked r14, upgrade to r47...its what i am running now (ziggy kernal and all). platt continues to outdo himself with each update!

I upgraded from Synergy LJC to Synergy MA7 easily with no problems at all. I would say the biggest upgrade is being able to use Ziggys kernal. There were some hiccups with his kernal on LJC, but it runs smooth on MA7. I say make a nandroid, and take the plunge!

Best CM rom?

Okay so I see a few CM roms Ive flashed them before but never really kept them. Getting bored of samsung I guess and hoping this will let me want to keep the Note 2, I love EVERYTHING about it except the software. So Which one is the most reliabile and stock that runs quick or as good as a stock touchwiz rom?
Try them and find what you like best. What I like may be different than what someone else likes. I don't like paranoid on this phone, others love it. Its what YOU want.

Whats the reason that you dont like it?
I`m just looking for speed,battery and reliability , I was between that and pac-man`s but I dont want much extras
I don't like it cus it's made for a nexus so it has the on screen menu button in places, it's just not my thing. I like root box, and right now I'm on jedi cm. The batter is really good. I got about 5 hours screen on time today and that's with ingress running for over an hour. That uses lots of battery and gps is on the whole time playing.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Which one is more nexus like? Not meaning the buttons. But more stock android without all the addons people like in cm. Just like pure cm but stable
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda premium
Go to the original development section and look at the jedi cm rom. It's what your looking for. It's pretty much stock cm with a few nice tweaks. Not as much customization as say liquid or carbon or the others. Pac man and root box and paranoid all have lots of extras I never use.
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
How good is the office CM`s? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2105917
Cause they seem VERY stock.
Yes that is stock cm. I haven't used it though. Just try it out
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
OP, the most reliable stock that runs quick or as good as stock....is Stock, nothing wrong with Stock. But as other pointed out, you will just have test and run, as it seems you have....bottom-line it is all on you, with to many different variables involved from user to user....you have to just test the waters of Stockish ROMs for yourself.
Thanks

Best JB 4.2 ROM?

What is currently considered the best 4.2 ROM in terms of features and stability? I'm looking for something in which I will not lose any functionality going from 4.1 (which I'm currently on) to 4.2. I tried checking out all the ASOP ROM threads, but it's a little difficult to get a feeling for what's working and what's not right now..
Thanks for the help. The main reason I'm looking to upgrade up to ASOP/4.2 is for Google Music All Access
In my opinion, Vanilla Root box is the best. It has features from CM10.1, AOKP and Paranoid Android.

Do you experience any issues with it? I was actually about to get that last night but decided against it because I couldn't find some more details about it. Thanks for the response btw.
Spleef's AOKP is fantastic. No real issues at all that I've found and it runs lighting fast.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
AOKP or Rootbox are the best at the moment, imo. Ran these the most and had minimal issues.
Rootbox or EOS
Really though, they are all quite stable and I encountered very few issues with any.
If Camera is important to you, however, my experience is that you should stick with something like Lifeless or a Stock ROM.

I agree with the camera part. I'm running beanstalk and it seems just as good as any other aosp ROM I've tried. However they all have the same camera problems. Even with the camera script it just isn't as fast and seems like the focus isn't quite right. Lifeless with epics camera mod is solid for taking great photos. I always keep a lifeless backup just for that reason.
Any more thoughts on this? I just recently unlocked and rooted my LGOG and am looking for a good, stable 4.2.2 rom? I'm coming from a rooted ns4g on rasbeanjelly which was super smooth, fast and had great battery life

Funny... I was just thinking the same thing. That you as a senior member should know what xda is about and that posting useless comments like the ones you've posted are the ones that get threads closed and not asking about others' opinions and experiences with ROMs they have used. So please allow someone to answer my question so we can possibly get some ROM discussion going and learn from each others' experiences.

The first custom rom I've tried is vanilla RootBox... Flashed it yesterday and so far it's running great! Love the Dark RootBox option! Need to give it a couple of days to see about the battery life. My battery life on stock was pretty good... I'll give it a couple days and then post a screen shot

Jelly Beer is the first 4.2 ROM I was man enough to try. I was concerned about bugs, but the only one I came across was for the GPS. It wasn't hard to fix, so I have no complaints.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
I would say Lifeless Rom. Just got my phone last Thursday, rooted it and put that Rom on there and havent tried any since. Rom is quick, no lag, you can have it as close to stock as you wanna and it even includes Aroma installer which has a ton of apps and tweaks you choose yourself.
Oh and EVERYTHING works! Cam, video, wifif, gps, LTE
its only 4.1.2 but its still good!

Well I've had Vanilla Rootbox on for about a day and have had a couple of issues with it. Like I was rebooting my phone and after it shut off it didn't want to power up again
It took like 5 minutes for my phone to power on again... I was so scared... Then I had some issues trying to place a call. The call would not go through. Had to reboot and again it took a while before I could power it on...
I'll give this a couple more days... if issues continue I'll have to try another ROM.

I'm very interested in your results. I've been passively looking for a ROM since discovering gMusic All Access doesn't work on LGOG. Thanks for posting.
I've used beanstalk, vanilla root box, and now I'm currently on jelly beer. Personally, I'm liking jelly beer the most but I'm noticing that my battery life is lacking a little however I have only had it for one day so I'm sure theres some tweaking I could do

What you like about jelly Beer?
I had to ditch Rootbox cuz it was too inconsistent. I'd try to make calls and they'd just hang up, people would get multiple of the same text messages, and I could not hang up at times. I'd push the end button and it would hang up until the person on the other line would.
I'm currently on Beanstalk. So far haven't encountered any issues other than the occasional screen flicker and that the gps won't lock. I love the Darkstalk option too!
