Like the title says, this isn't about what's "best". It's just to try to get an idea of metrics. As far as I know there's no one tracking how popular any given ROM is, and this won't go a long way to help, but I'm curious.
Please don't check "Yes this is a question" for polls in General. Qs go in Q&A. Edited title.
Thanks

Huh, I'm really surprised there aren't more CyanogenMod users coming through.
I'm running slimbean 3.1 as my daily driver. Its android 4.1.2, but its smooth and everything works! The battery life is excellent as well!

From what I've seen CM is more widely used on manufacture skinned devices. Nexus users don't need CM as much as rest of the android world.

DarkPA 2.54 is my daily driver and will be for a while. I keep trying 4.2+ ROMs and I always end up back here. Tablet UI with inverted colors.....love it lol. :thumbup:
I'm running EOS4 nightlies, and EOS3 nightlies before that with very few problems. Check it out, it's a pretty sweet ROM.
Fitsnugly's CM10.1 has been great as always. Tiny's kernel too.

CM10
I'm using pure AOSP with Trinity Kernel. I can say It's awesome.
It seems like all of the 4.2.1 ROMs are still experiencing issues. Is that even true of vanilla AOSP?
right now liquidsmooth with air kernel, but that's bound to change as i can't leave my phone the way it is anymore.
Sorcery for me excellent amount of customization and battery life is great running the stock kernel packaged with the rom I could go on how awesome this rom is.

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.

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.
I am currently using a Sensation, however I will likely be purchasing a GNEX in the next week or two. I have become accustomed to flashing different ROMs on my Sensation so I wanted to know if a stable (not nightly) version of CM9 was currently available for this device. I checked on the CM site and its a bit hard to determine what is nightly vs stable, so I figured I would ask around here. Thanks in advance, and I hope to be joining the discussions on this forum soon!
no phones have a non-nightly version. NO RC1 version has came out for CM9 regardless of what phone it is.
aokp is really stable + more features than cm9.
Cm9 is stable and fast.

CM9 newest nightly is always the best f it is newer than RC!
on ZTE Blade I flash always the newest nightly of CM7...
Does GN CM9 Nightly (newest) use the Android 2.3 Gingerbread CM7 music player? If I remember fine then it is using that..
Please, use CM9 AND DONT USR AOKP! We don't need another thread about someone complaining about something not working or horrible battery drain...etc...etc. CM9 is leaps and bounds faster and more stable.

I disagree, AOKP is very stable. It has many features. Don't take what people says. Its about personal preference

I came from the Sensation and while Vorbeth did a nice job with Opensensation, the nightly CM9 I'm running is VERY excellent. The only bugs I saw when I skimmed thru the thread were with people trying to run custom kernels.
And to be honest, the stock ROM was kicking ass too. There's nothing like having a phone that's truly open to unlock and have fun with. Plus, there are no bugs with certain components usually found in phones with sense or touchwiz. Bluetooth, camera, video recording and HD playback WORK exactly the way they're supposed to.
From this point forward, I will only buy a nexus device. I'm not trying to convince you, just giving my honest opinion.

Liquid/trinity. Auto sync mobile data and auto brightness on the whole time and I just did 21 hours with 4½ display, will add screenshots from laptop in morning.

codename android great rom , plenty of options smooth and good battery life ... would have voted but not listed
Eclipse Rom by Nitroglycerine should be on the list, but either way, I'd vote for it. Not only looks great (black which saves some battery by not lighting up everything) but it has a ton of working features, unlike nearly every other ROM I read about in here. I can't think of any non-working functionality in this ROM.
You can get it here on XDA, (and that other forum), or eclipserom.com -

Look through the dev thread and see which ones have what you're looking for. AOKP and CM10 variants are probably the most popular.
Try AOKP, Euroskank and/or official CM10 then go from there.
What were you using on your previous phone? Try that if it's available.
I am currently using BAMF and really like it but I've tried about 6 or 7 in the past month so I may not be on it very long.
