Cyan 9 is the smoothest phone experience i've ever had. But it has its bugs. To revert to stock rom you flash a stock rom through odin.

how bugged up is it? as long as i can use the normal features and facebook and youtube im good. and thats it? no custom recovery?

It does reboot if you use YouTube for a while, also it does not have full video acceleration so YouTube is not worth it. And there is no camera preview

If you want the most bugless custom rom, use CM 7.2.
If you want to feel cool with ICS and won't miss a few features, use CM 9.

so if i take a picture its a blank screen? all g. i probably wont use the camera anyways lol so i flash a recovery and flash ics then when i have to return a phone is there a full bell stock rom i can flash or do i need a computer to flash it back? also what are the chances of this failing like bricking the phone. this thing os a peice compared to the atrix it seems like theres alot more roms but they are unfinished. can i still call and send texts and mms amd us the browser? i read people werent receiving calls. is that for everyone? lol thanks to whoever answers all these questions.

This is the first phone in 6 years that I've run out of things to flash...a good thing anyone else got that trouble?
I ran out after a week of having it!

Erm.. Flash AOKP and you won't ever be bothered to switch ROMs.

Some of the devs have nightlies, so no, i haven't had that issue! Always something new with a/multiple new feature/features. Plus with theme manager and the amount of roms supporting it, i can go straight on performance and then easily pick my theme.

When you guys flash new ROMs like crazy are you just counting on TI to restore it all quickly? Seems like everyone warns about TI restoring system settings yet people flash roms like crazy.

? I just use my nandroids. The only time I use titanium is for specific apps to carry over.restoring system settings can be problematic

Learn how to start building your own roms. Why use a rom someone else made?

I thought a phone in the Nexus series was meant for flashing ROMs and stuff?

I'd like to flash Provision, but I don't believe there is support for the i515, yet. I've been wanting to try Liquid Smooth, but AOKP just suites me perfectly...I'm scared to make the switch.

Flash cm nighters, almost every night.

no, it was meant to provide clean android experience without skins and bloatware, and ease of rooting and unlocking bootloader for those who care about it
there's nothing wrong with flashing, but flashing several ROMs daily is kind of stupid, people end up not using their phone as a smartphone, instead it becomes just another toy

Nope, as a "developer phone", it's meant for developers to have a stable and clean platform on which to base and write their apps for

Liquid is basically the same as AOKP feature wise with a few more and the ability to choose between the notification power widget and the AOKP toggles

Custom ROM.. Is it worth ?

Comparing to 4.1.2 stock, should i get Custom rom?
I know this is a personal thing, but i only care about stable and fast rom, and good battery life.. I dont care about customization a lot... I will root it on stock anyway..
So my question is what is the benefit of a custom rom (AOKP for example) at the moment ?
I know this was asked hundreds of times, and sorry But i said i dont need a lot of customization (stock ones are enough for me)
Thanks in advance

You answered your own question.

If you dont care about customization then rooted stock is perfect for you

If you need to ask OP, then custom roms are not for you.

If you want customization, that's when you consider custom ROM. Other than that, I see no reason to flash it.

It's actually made to be used as a device to demonstrate stock Android free of any altering from carriers or manufacturer skins.
Custom ROMs is one of the "goodies" that comes along with it.

Thank you all for answering my question, and for not accussing me for asking this kind of question..
I did complete wipe, and flashed stock 4.1.2.. If that bores me, ill flash some custom rom...

Fairly to say, at least 90% Gnex is running third part ROM such as CM,AOKP, ASOP, its based on ROM, even modified stock ROM

IMO, the stock kernel holds its own against the custom kernels as far as battery life and performance go. Where custom kernels help is in custom tweaks like over clocking , changing color profiles, etc.

What's your favorite custom rom for the GSIII?

I haven't had a chance to try most of them but so far I like paranoid android 2.52. I was able to get the GS3 stock icons & sounds on it and touchwiz also but I'm using the trebuchet launcher since touchwiz doesn't auto-rotate. I haven't had any problems with it & it runs pretty smooth. What's your favorite rom?

Im using frosty ics its 100% functioning no issues or whatsoever .. its been like 2 weeks im running it ..

I was actually thinking of giving that one a try soon. Do you know if the media hub works on it? I was able to get it working on my paranoid android rom and I was even able to download my free copy of the avengers but I can't watch it since it's locked for some reason so the media hub is pretty useless so far

i use FrostyJB. i usually jump around from ROM to ROM but i find this ROM easy to change toggles, brightness, good battery life and everything just works well and I don't have to worry much about not being able to use my phone for something.

I think I'll try frosty pretty soon. It seems to be a pretty good stable rom. Have any of you tried the serenity rom? It's a port based of the galaxy note II. I haven't flashed it yet but it seems pretty interesting

FreeGS3 V6. IMO, the best stock ICS touchwiz based rom for the s3. Just wish uoY_redruM would update it to JB already.
I have a feeling one day he will

The one i make myself. Tired of flashing broken roms devs upload and then keep updating because everytime they telease one version something does not work as it is supposed to. Rooted stock rom is the best.

you having problems with the gps? I don't really use it much maybe like once or twice but it seemed to be working fine for me

Have been rolling PA 2.54 for ages, love it. Everything working fine, havent noticed anything thats broken or missing. Big thanks to gokussjx
I gave 2.99 a go but its still quite new so will wait a while before updating permanently and just 'check in' once in a while, so to speak, to see if its been made as stable as 2.54... Am very much lookin forward to being able to use 2.99 as my daily.
Am curious as to the difference between the roms for the GT-I9300 and SGH-T999... Does the T999 have anything the I9300 doesnt?

[Q] your opinion counts

umm hi
i wanna buy this tablet for my girlfriend
but before handing it over i want to give it a touch
which kernel,rom,apps do you suggest?
should i root it?should i change rom or something?
and i also want to buy an stylus,is it ok?any suggestion there?
thank you for your time my good friends

and i am obviously not familiar with any kind of lg product or kernel or anything
i have a rooted note on a costume rom ( if you wanna know about my experience)
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Its pretty easy to root the thing. Here is what i would do:
Root
Install twrp 2.7 recovery
make a backup so you have it exactly like it came out of the box other than root.
Then you have about 3 choices for roms
Mahdi-Rom 2.5 4.4
LRS G Pad][v1.2.0 4.2.2 +BOB kernel
CYANOGENMOD 11 LINARO/SABERMOD 4.4
Ive used all 3 and settled on LINARO/SABERMOD. It seemed the easiest to setup, didnt have a huge amount of stuff installed (i cant use/stand pie controls) and it was easy to setup for tap on/off.

what is the point in changing the rom?i mean the installed one has a problem?
other than that what apps do you suggest,or maybe a launcher!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Honestly unless she is tech savy keep it stock I have the lg g2 and gpad both are stock but for one reason only everything works and I get great battery life out of them I do use go next launcher 3d on the phone for a launcher but stock launcher on tablet because I can't find one that I like better

No need for a custom rom, the stock one is fine. I would root it and maybe install a custom recovery, but that's completely optional, plus adding a custom recovery has the disadvantage that it complicates things when you want to do an OTA update.
Some people prefer an alternate launcher, e.g. Nova.
But really, you don't need to do anything but add some apps.

Hello..
First let me say, any standard stylus will do just fine.. I would pick one that is your Girlfriends Favorite Color.. :good:
Personally.. If I were in your position knowing what I know about "Stock ROM's" vs "What's Available" to give her tablet *A Touch*..
The only Custom ROM I would install for her is the Mahdi-ROM.. It's 100% Stable ( The Most Important Thing ) and it's very Fluid and Fast.
Other than that, I would leave it completely stock since the Official 4.4.2 KitKat Update will most likely arrive in the next 60 days.
