[Q] Getting Verizon Nexus. (Rom suggestions)

Hello there everyone. I have been browsing this site for about the past 2 years but only decided to register because I am upgrading from my OG Droid Incredible to the Nexus and i see how large and active the Dev base is for this device. I have a fair amount of experience with flashing roms on my Dinc (currently running CM7.2) and am excited to make the move to ICS.
I would like some opinions on what you guys think are the best custom roms out for the nexus though. so far I am very interested in AOKP because it seems to be the most stable and polished rom i have seen. I plan to flash my nexus right out of the box when i get it.
Also, i can't seem to find a place to add a signature in the Cpanel, is there one somewhere or do you guys just add on a Copy/Paste to the end of posts?

If you've been around this site for a couple of years now you should know that asking "what the best ROM is" only leads to closed threads. Its all a matter of opinion. What works for one person may not necessarily work for another.. why this person thinks this ROM is the best, another person may think the opposite. It's best to try them out for yourself, see which one YOU like.
As far as editing your sig.. at the top somewhere on your PC, you'll see User CP (user control panel).. click it. Then look to the left if your screen.. along the sidebar you should see Edit Signature. ..if that's what your referring to!

i'm sorry if i come off like i want to know what the "best rom" is, i know that there is no best rom and like you said what works for one person may not work for another. that being said, some personal opinions about their taste in roms are still useful are they not?. and i do fully intend to try out several roms. as for my experience with this site, 90% of it has been with viewing the first page of rom posts, so i apologize for my ignorance in that regard. and i thoroughly searched through the user control panel to no avail, signatures must be disabled for me if that is where the interface to change them is located.
[EDIT] the reason joined this site is because with the nexus, i would actually like to get involved in the dev community and create something new, i was trying to use this thread more as a "say hi" kind of thread than just asking about what rom i should get. i dont think i accomplished that very well.

My advice is to just unlock bootloader, root and then run STOCK ROM. I have been running ROMS on phones here for a long time and for the first time on a phone think at this point the STOCK rom is the best and most stable. Next to it I would say Mikes AHRD is a great stable rom and that is always his goal. But try them all if you like. I would stay STOCK>

[Q] Devs?

I want to start by saying I love the work that is being done for our phone, all the ROMS and mods have been awesome. With that said my question is do you guys think we will see more DEVs come to the Note II? I was looking at the SGSIII thread and there are so many devs. I have used the SGSIII extensively and in my opinion the Note II is better. Am I just being impatient? What do you guys think?

before thephone came out there was a long list of devs supposedly getting the device dont know what happened

I know, that's one of the reasons I picked it up. Not a big deal, I am running with some Jelly Bomb which is running great, I am just the type that loves it when there is a different ROM/update every day so it gives me something to do (you know cause I'm a nerd :laugh: )

Get nova launcher and uccw. Then go to mycolorscreen.com and get to work. There's very few reasons I would go off "stock", but love being able to change the look with little effort.

Clean Rom vs Jedi vs ?...

Please excuse my ignorance. I am looking to root my phone soon & flash a new rom. I have previously done this about 3x with my Cappy so I'm only a semi-noob. Anyhow I'm looking for input as far as which rom to use. On my wish list is full sPen support & multi-view (all apps not just the att ones), followed by good battery life & maybe the dropbox thing. Don't want to lose lte support our any of that. I am thinking it's between clean rom & Jedi. Please send me your input. Thanks!

All of the ROMs on here have full compliment of features your looking for. Ya just gotta try them all till ya find what suits your individual needs

Jedi and CleanRom both come highly recommended. As you try each rom, you will find quirks with each development. Personally, the [ROM][12/5][N7105XXDLK7 4.1.2] International Stock has be the best rom for my needs. Strangely, the main problem I have with that ROM is that the Adobe Flash doesn't work. Otherwise it's been great.

Easy fix with flash just google jelly bean flash and will lead u to a post on here where u download it straight to the phone but make sure u have unknown sources checked

We have a lot of great developers on here. Like others have said, read the comments on specific roms and just try them out for yourself.

Why don't you TRY both then decide which one you want to use as your main Rom. Any thread like this is very opinionated and everyone has their own taste for things and discredit certain devs because they don't have this or that in their roms. I'd say just try a few different ones because you may not even end up with Jedi or CleanRom at then end of the day.

I used to be the same type of user...trying to ask someone what's the "BEST" rom to use. After flashing and trying several ROMs on my own, I'd agree with the others and say that try them out for yourself. You will have a different experience from the next person. So far the GN2 ROMs I have tried have been very stable so I'd say it comes down to which one you like better.

Sounds good. I'm really not that picky except I want those few items mentioned above. The minor details I don't care much about. Lol Of course I read these 'hello I've bricked my phone' threads and they scare me a tiny bit. But I know as long as I stick with the proven winners specifically for att version I should be fine. Just have to find the time to do it all. Can anyone help me with that? Lmao

I've tried both and they are both very good. They are different types of Roms so read on the features for each and make a decision. You can't go wrong either way.

Just flashed Jedi X6 and it seems very good i'll post more once i've run it longer

CR with the latest Perseus kernel is very nice. Straightforward and easy install. Good developer communication. I recommend it!

Help me choose my next ROM [T999]

T-Mobile Galaxy S3 (T-999). I'm currently running Frosty Jellybean v11.6, (R.I.P.) so I'm looking for a suitable replacement that is in active development.
I would say I have average to advanced skills (I usually Oden to stock before installing a new ROM)
Wifi Calling is a must, so CM and all non TouchWiz ROMs are out.
I tend to prefer "close to stock" ROMs but I won't rule out something more customized.
I generally don't overclock so those features are not important to me.
I typically install Google Wallet (replace the NFC drivers, installing the MoDoCo hacked wallet binary and then change the build.prop).
I need fairly good battery life (stock experience or reasonably close to it).
What do you suggest?

Sounds like WICKED v7 is what you want if you want near stock feel, and better battery. It performs well.
If you do not mind a tweaked UI, DarthStalker X.

The developers do this really cool thing now, which consists of putting a list of all features that are within the rom in the first post of the thread. Most of the time they even put screenshots so you can see what it looks like! It's a very good thing for deciding on a rom.
Want to know something else really awesome?! Our friend mt3g put together a resource bible that is stickied in the general section that lists all of the roms available, with short descriptions of what they are!

True, but that only tells you so much about a ROM. I generally read the first page or two and the last page or two of each ROM I am considering. What you don't get is an informed opinion from someone who is really using the ROM.

Frosty JB was my favorite and I'm still using 11.3.2. Shame development had to stop on it, but there's no reason you still can't use it. 11.3.2 has the stock kernel, 11.6 has the Xone kernel and is overclockable. Personally, I always loved how close to stock 11.3.2 is, so I continue to use that version.

Like TheLastSidekick said, the WICKED ROM series seems like the option you are looking for providing what you want. I have been using it since the ICS days and I haven't had a single complaint with it.

Sooooo reading the last couple pages of the rom thread doesn't give you an idea of people's opinion?

Try out the very new STABLE SlimBean 4.2.1 if you want something different!
Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085828
Make sure you perform a clean install if you're coming from a different rom.
Cheers

Slim Roms are not TouchWiz. So will not have WiFi calling..

If I were you, I would go to the dev section and start mango around a few of them see which you like best. I would start with Wicked and Drastalker to begin with. If you're not satisfy, go to the next until you find your answer.
Don't believe what everyone says, follow your heart (hopefully you're not bias )

Yup. What they said. ^^^
That is the beauty of Nandroid. Try one, like it. Great. If not then Nandroid back to what you had/have. Only issue is that you can't Nandroid across build changes, meaning ICS to JB and then back to JB or 4.1.1/2 to 4.2.2 then back to 4.1.1/2. That would cause some partition issues. But since you know how to Odin, that is 80% of the cure for future problems.

Custom Roms

I'm looking to put a custom ROM on my phone and was wondering what ROM i should do or what the good ones where and why. Thanks for your time.

first there are threads already about this. second they have been closed for a reason. best rom threads usually create tension amongst users and devs. not to mention what may fill my needs may not be what you want. the best thing would be to look at them choose which ones look good to you as far as features. then flash them and try them out. goodluck

I love Macks Allstar 3.5 and Jelly Bomb 16.0

Make backups and try them all.

Try Minitab (N7100) port to sprint by ram9200. Thats all I have to say

I recommend using Mack's Plain Jane ROM.

Get in the habit of making nandroids and become a flashaholic. Eventually (maybe) you'll come across the rom that 'just fits'. then you'll be set. But until that time have fun and enjoy the adventure that is XDA. Try some stock, some custom TW, some AOSP, some ports from other devices. And remember that there are multiple variasion (i.e. different kernels) within each rom. So explore and have fun, then come back and tell us which the best rom is for you and why!
