Well just installed it taday. But there was a leak of it and battery was good. I would get about 13 hrs and about 3 1/2 hrs screen time. Im a really heavy user. From 1-10 I give it a 10. I think everybody running this will agree with me.

Just to warn you, I got horrid 3g speeds with fk23...But I think it could be an area thing...
fi27 and f127 modem with agat fi27 v0.6.8 with the rom call lightweight 0.5 its great I get around 9 hrs heavy uses sometimes when I im bored I switch to a backup of jb fk09 tweaked signed I get about 8 hrs heavy uses
Awesome, thanks for the reply! Just wondering, can you define 'heavy'? I personally use my phone at school all the time, I listen to music through headphones about 1/2 of my total day(4 hours or so) and I will also spend a lot of time texting, browsing the web, and using apps that use data. I'm honestly constantly on my phone, and will have to charge it around 3 times per day.

Right now I'm on miui trying it out for the first time getting used to no app drawer. Favorite ROM for a daily (if I had one lols) would have to be Living Rejects. I flash it at least twice a week. Its pretty much my goto when I need a good solid dependable ROM for GPS and coverage while traveling. The battery life is effin amazing and music come out really loud and clear. But I will say once our beloved devs get cm10/AOKP/PA etc running solid for jb I will prolly be going back to PA or try out KK again. I love the UK customization options. I ran ICS aokp as a daily until jb started seeping its way into my veins now I'm flashing like there's no tomorrow can't wait for volume bug fix ^^

I'm running blazer 4.1 gingerbread I like ics and jb but I always come back to blazer 4.1 gingerbread because to me it is the most stable, faster, and battery life is much much better.

I still use the calkulin v3.0 custom gingerbread rom because it has been the most stable, fastest, and longest lasting, battery life-wise. I recently tried the one-click fk23 jellybean but ran into some problems so I flashed back to calkulin...Gonna try the fk23 again tomorrow though. ;p
Hi there. As the title suggests, this is a question to those members who've tried a bunch of different ROMs. Can you please suggest the most stable one out of the ones that you've had a chance to try out, one with the least amount of bugs. Please don't go around posting annoying comments like "why don't you try a bunch of ROMs yourself". If I had time to try different ROMs, I wouldn't be typing this right now. I really need a stable ROM, and any suggestion is appreciated. I am currently using Jedi Knight 4, and it keep messing up my data connectivity every 15-30 minutes. It would go on an off non-stop every 3 seconds, and it would only stop if I turned the Airplane mode on and then off. It's really annoying, and I really need something stable, since the next few weeks are going to be incredibly busy for me, and I will need to rely on my phone a lot. I don't care whether it's ICS or JB, as long as it's stable and functional enough. Good battery life would be a huge plus, though not absolutely necessary, anything within decent range would suffice. Thank you in advance.
Have you tried to flash another radio?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I have not, but that's not my only problem with the ROM, just the most annoying one. I still need something different. Plus I don't really think that the radio had anything to do with it. It only started happening after I flashed the ROM, and that ROM wasn't too different from the rooted 4.0.4 update that I was using prior to that, and I never had problems with my connectivity with that one. Either way, maybe I'm wrong, but in that case, might you suggest a good radio?

It is hard to suggest what radio is the best. It depends on your phone and your location, but you can try Galaxy Note radio. For Rom, jedi mind trick X2 is the most stable.

I'll just add...no bugs that concern me at all. others may say this or that isn't perfect....like no wifi calling. bit I've used every jb rom lately....all are pretty good. liking paranoid android for its certain customization features...like dpi changing...even particular apps....plus finding its battery life just great!
I suggest to flash again the same radio that you have.
When I flashed All-dev AOKP version, my wireless got messed up in the same way as you are experiencing. Also sequential roms flashed after I noticed this issue did not fix the problem.
There is nothing to lose if you flash the same radio. Maybe only 1 minute of your time.
After I did this, I no longer experienced issues with my wifi connection.
I've tried many roms but i always go back to juggernaut its just stable and smooth its the daily driver for me. I wish team Kang will ever go back and edit that rom and add new themes and good update.<-------------- this is the answer untill they ever come up with a good stable release of jb roms they look cool and much more choices but a headache.

I already flashed a newer one, seems to be perfect at the moment, but thanks for the suggestion.
So I am thinking about switching over to this ROM, now that Frosty ROM is no longer being supported by the dev. I have been reading through the treads and I don't see any issues people are having with this ROM. That's a huge plus!
I wanted to ask before flashing, does this ROM have themes? Does it have the ability to run the Galaxy Note 2 gallery and Camera, if so where is the download link? Does tethering work?How is battery life?
Sorry for the 20 questions, but I have to use my phone for work. I have to have it work.
Themes should work it has the option within aroma installer for the note2 gallery and stuff battery was awesome for me when I tried it got 4 hours on screen and 14 hours through the day.

4.2 is only available in aosp style so if you really like touchwiz and all it'd features, aosp is not for you. Go to the thread in the developer section and you'll find links to the ROM. Be ware that there is a echo issue in when calling but that's about it from what I've read.

I've been using Wiked JB v3 for about a week now after having tried about 5 other ROMs over the past 3 months. As another poster noted, Wiked is TouchWiz based, which I've decided I like better than CM/ASOP. When you flash Wiked, Aroma gives you several options including multiple launchers, gallery options and a couple others I don't remember offhand. I've been tremendously pleased with Wiked - it's stable, I've noticed nothing that's broken, battery life has been good (not great, but good), and no noticable issues related to voice or data signal. The developer is planning an update soon and seems to be providing stellar support to users.
Good luck!

I went ahead and flashed it last night. ( I came from Frosty 11.1) and I really like what I have seen so far. Since this is my first battery cycle the android system is pretty high (20%) and gsiff_deamon is what is driving it. I know this was an issue on Frosty, but am wondering if it is for Wicked. On Frosty the gsiff_deamon would run all time after experiencing a HOT BOOT. The solution was to reboot the phone. Is this the same thing? I have gotten 11 hrs out of this battery as of now and I am at 14%. Screen time only 1hr 36 min... I know I have to go through 3 cycles to really tell if battery is good, so that's why I am taking it with a grain of salt. If it does keep up, I might have to find another ROM. I was getting 16-17 hrs with Frosty running stock kernel (2 hr screen time)

If battery continues to be an issue for you, one you might consider is Team Sonic's FreeGS3 R7.1.1 "Resurrection". It is also TouchWiz based but has been tweaked in a way that gave me really good battery performance. I had a few random issues with it and decided to switch, but it was overall a good ROM.

Weird...I thought custom touchwiz rom should increase battery life. Even on stock rooted phone, I got around 4hrs screen time and still 13% left of battery.
Bring back Blazer ROM 4.1 please... JB is nice and all, but Blazer ROM on GB is by far the best ROM I have ever used. Unsurpassed battery life, GPS always locked in fast, and more. I have tried to find it (and I'm not the only one) but you can only find the ICS version, and the GB one all has dead links. If anyone has it or knows where to get it, you'd deserve many, many beers my friend.

You can try this cuz i was a fan of blazer rom ..flash calkulins 3.0 rom, then in the forum theres a blazer rom tweak pack that td made ..which gives u the same effect that blazer did ..i would also use the gunslinger kernel and it would get u amazing battery life ..
I tried this cuz i liked calkulins work and also liked phantomhackers as well ..so mesh the two was an awesome idea
If u choose to try this,flash calkulins rom first...wait till u boot up home screen then reboot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik then flash the tweak pack cuz if you do all this in one session it causes a boot loop

If you look at the screen shot, my 4300 MAH battery was dying with only gps on on low brightness screen time of 2 hours and 30 min. This is very short compared to a week ago when I got it, I got almost 6 hours of screen time.
Also I had about 45 min of screen time with juicedefender on and then idle from 7 to 1:47 today and 73% battery!?
Remember this is an extended battery, this seems too quick.
Could it be the battery, or programs on my phone. But I checked battery and screen was the most battery consumption on Low brightness. And nothing running in the backround

Restoring data. Like games or text with titanium backup or mybackup. I think that is what I was reading. I never used cm10.1 for more than 5 min, but I read the thread everyday to see how it is going.

Well, the only stable is cm10 stable, which is android 4.1.2, not 4.2.2.. but I personally love cm10 stable. You could try to dirty flash, but I have never went down an android level over dirty flash, but I would imagine it would not end well. I would recommend a clean flash. If you need a good backup app, look into app backup and restore for your apps and mybackup for text and app data. It can backup so much and is so simple to use. Both in play store.
Sorry about having to clean flash, but after you do, if it isn't your battery (which I believe it isn't), battery life should be improved greatly.

Thanks man, one of the best answers I've gotten from this site.
Last question , I chose 4.2.2 FOR the battery life improved through idle, but this changes everything, do you think staying here would give me useful features in otherwise wouldn't have in cm stable?
App Backup, while backing up can I multitask? I have hw to do lol and need the browser

I know people will argue otherwise, but the only thing different I see in 4.2.2 is 4 things.
the camera, which I flashed on 4.1.2 because I found a zip. Loving it.
4.2 keyboard, which I also have on 4.1.2. Very cool.
The lock screen which personally I think it is a good idea but it isn't that important to me. Cm10 stable is better suited because it is simple.
And last which is the quick toggles. I like this feature too but isn't a deal breaker for me. As cool as they are, I just use the power widgets in cm10 stable and they work just fine.
I know they say 4.2.2 helps improve battery life, and yes, in the long run it will. I don't know what nightly you flashed, but they are exactly what they are, nightly. They are just test for new things they put in to see if anything breaks. I am personally gonna wait till I see a stable 4.2.2. Rom until I make the jump up. 4.2.2. Is gonna have bugs as it is brand new. I can wait until the bugs are squished. If you want awesome battery life, you could try some of these touchwiz ROMs. Sometimes AOSP doesn't play nice with some phones as every phone is different.
So do as you wish. If you can live without some 4.2 features (which some you can get on 4.1.2) then make the jump. If the battery still acts up on 4.2 to where it bothers you, then switch. If you don't mind it stay. It is all up to you. .
I also forgot to add: if you flashed a nightly of cm 10.1, you could try the snapshot (monthly build by cm people).
These are considered more stable for daily use.
I am gonna go to bed now, but if you have anymore questions, feel free to ask/pm me. I will get to answering them as soon as possible.
Hope it all works out.

If you look at the screen shot, my 4300 MAH battery was dying with only gps on on low brightness screen time of 2 hours and 30 min. This is very short compared to a week ago when I got it, I got almost 6 hours of screen time.
Also I had about 45 min of screen time with juicedefender on and then idle from 7 to 1:47 today and 73% battery!?
Remember this is an extended battery, this seems too quick.
Could it be the battery, or programs on my phone. But I checked battery and screen was the most battery consumption on Low brightness. And nothing running in the backround

I had the worst luck with most aftermarket batteries, tried all brands, from everywhere, some didn't bother about telling you there is no NFC chip, and, they all got super hot while charging. None of them seemed to hold a charge longer than OEM.
