Hi everyone! I'm planning on getting a p936 soon. My question is: is the official aokp for nitro HD compatible with the p936 variant? If not, is there any good roms (in terms of performance and battery life) that you would recommend? ? Many thanks!

Hi!
You can use LG Nitro HD rom. I own a P936, too and my favourite is PAC-Rom with WIND kernel.
It's quite stable. I get random reboots with all roms, but for me PAC/WIND is the most stable and battery friendly at the time.
Hi!
AOKP is good enough. Battery life is near ~2-3 days of light use. But CM10.1 is a good solution too.
Also you can try MIUI roms.

thanks! also hows the performance of that rom? i heard pac-man roms can be quite slow compares to the others (aokp, cm, etc.)

thanks! so you are using aokp with a p936 also?
As I don't use the P936 for gaming I cannot tell you about that. Normally I use it as phone (!), playing mp3, mailing, sms, internet, navigation, sometimes video or streaming live sports.
Heaviest use is mostly when I'm driving. MP3, navigation, BT for hands-free, some calls, checking mails. I never had any problems running these programs at the same times, no lags in navigation or playing music. That's enough for me.
PAC rom is stable with wind kernel, jellybam too. But I think ICS based roms are more stable with less battery drain (hono version or tnt). I missed in ICS based roms the fast charge feature, so I`m now to jellybam. But miroslav will develop the best rom for me I think only a little time to wait and he will solve the problems. As I told for me. I don`t play with the phone. Daily using I prefer a stable rom. If you like antutu high scores then I think it is not the right phone.

I've been running Aurax TSense on my Desire since long now, it's v8.4 currently.
I've seen a number of new ROMs out there but am scared of testing them all because of the time needed to set it up for daily usage.
I've looked for a similar thread in the first two pages of this forum with no luck. That'd mean that any thread related to this very topic could be quite old.
Now, what I'm looking for?
0. decent battery life (1.5 days currently)
1. stability (of course)
2. the FM Radio and the 720p camera need to be fully working
3. the audio player needs to support both OGG and FLAC (I hate MP3s)
4. the alarm clock needs to support multiple alarms on a weekly basis.
I've been using Aurax because all of these features are in place there.
And I'd like to test something new for the sake of curiosity.
I'm not embracing any UI religion nor any other fancy thing: if it's compliant with the above list, it can be OK.
What'd be a good hint/choice, then?
Well do what i did switched from Neo's AuraxTSense rom to his ReflexTSense it's a DHD rom ,works just as good as his Aurax
As for other Sesnse rom's i dis-advise ,cuz they're old and not updated,and most DHD sense roms i've tested are laggy [except for Reflex]

DHD?
What's that?
It is a ROM ported from Desire HD.
Insertcoin hd 2.0.1 data2ext version
IMO the best HD rom you can use, incredibly stable, very fast, pretty much stock HD rom with a few tweeks
But, do HD ROMs work fine on non-HD phones?
i recommend you the great RCmixHD ROM
And yes it works good
I use oxygen rom and it's perfect for me. It has all the features you pointed out except flac playback (which I'm not sure of) but it can be done by installing 3rd party media player, tho. Bettery life is very long (longest of all roms I've been testing so far) and with normal use calling, texting, emailing, fb, internet, music etc. for me it lasts approx 35-40h. Of course can be even longer with some less "activity". And other thing is, oxygen is very up to date. You should try it for your Desire.
I use CM7.
Have tried most of the Desire ROMs available on XDA but at the end of the day, I always go back to Cyanogen. I feel (and please don't quote me on this, I'm only speaking for myself) that CM is one of the fastest and smoothest ROMS out there even though I only get around 1500 on quadrant. Also, battery life is pretty good as well I also like the range of customization available for this ROM.
BTW, this is my first ever post on XDA even though I've been coming here almost every day for the last 6 months.
I love android because of you guys....thanks everyone

I dont trust benchmarks anymore. I've seen some benchmarks giving better scores with certain roms even though the tests took longer to finish. I wont say names because thats just lame, but it seems wise to trust your feelings instead of your numbers. Plus, if you are happy with a certain rom and it feels fast and responsive, scores wont change that.
rcmixhd rom is the best white robocik
I vote for Redux and GingerVillain!
Starburst with datatosd looks promising. I'm trying it out currently.

Which ROM, in your opinion, has the best battery life for the DHD? Doesn't matter if it's AOSP, stock, etc.
I'm just struggling to get through a days' heavy use with Cyanogenmod and MIUI...
Thanks in advance.

I've tested many GB, ICS, and JB ROMS and so far IceColdSandwich has been the ROM with the best battery life so far, Jelly Time is also good if you'd prefer a JB ROM.

Is the speed of IceColdSandwich acceptable? As a daily driver? I tried it awhile ago and didn't like it too much. I preferred AOSPx but the battery drain was ridiculous.

The speed is good, I sometimes get random lags but you might not necessarily get those.
I'm getting only 12-14 hours of battery life using Runny Xtreme Surprise - v3.0.1
Which rom should I go for? I prefer GB because of camera, I really take a lot of photos.

I was a sense user too but ever since i flashed CM 7.2, i have no complaints at all + you have theme chooser so that you can customize a bit here and there. Battery lasts around 2-3 days on standby. You will see yourself that the battery life is much better than all those sense or other roms...Now i was wondering if i was to flash LordClockan's kernel and replace the current CM kernel, would it do any good towards performance and battery life?
CM 7.2 stable version
Seems like someone forgot to read the rules.
Which JB Rom would be the best for the Nitro? I'm on CM10 Stable right now and all seems good so far. When I had my GSIII CM10 was to buggy. Just wanted some opinions from you who have been using the Nitro for some time. Also which JB Roms work with LTE?

Asking questions like this, you miss out on all the fun. They are all more or less equally stable, equally battery draining, and most have functional LTE.
For my part, tried a couple and came back to normal CM10, im running the nightlies and not having any problems, added 4.2 camera, 42 kerboard and flashed Lighting Zap kernel gave me a little more performance and battery life.
Honestly, you should do the same, backup what you have now and try them, it's all about your personnal preference ...
Thanks for the input. When I had my SIII I got tired of flashing different ROMs all the time. I guess I'm just getting to the point where I just want something that works great. I see the ROM options for this device are limited compared to the other Android devices I've had.
Can anyone reccomend a solid, fast and battery-friendly ROM for my old Epic? Currently I use Paranoid Android, and while very nice, the battery life and speed of opening apps and such is disappointing.
Thanks!

I've had issues with some stables as well as some nightly's myself, so I don't think it makes too much of a difference IMO on what it's technically called. I'm currently on the 20130101 build of CM10.1 and have been running it for over a month with only one random reboot and no issues at all. If you don't use bluetooth then I'd recommend it.
Do you mean F-A-S-T really? CM7.2 runs fastest amongst all plain, untouched ROMs on my device.
I know CM10.1 is buttery smooth, but it's still Android 4.x. It still bogs a yearold phone down somewhat (you may not feel that, anyway, I don't feel bogged down THAT much but it counts). And that's where a very clean 2.3 build like CM7 come in handy. Plus app compatibility is better, if you're not into Android 4.x specific apps.

You could try Pac-man Rom. I've only had one reboot. And it's pretty snappy opening apps.

Thanks. I"ll give both those a shot. It needs to be fast and stable because im giving my wife my old phone, and she is not nearly as technically minded as I am - i just upgraded to a Galaxy S III with LTE - and I'm hooked. Only drawback is the GS3 needs a physical keyboard variant.
If its for someone not technical you should use either CM7 or The Peoples Rom. They seem to have the best battery life and are the most stable.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
CM7 and the GB TouchWiz roms seem to be the most speed and battery-efficient roms for our devices, but honestly the newer JB roms like PACMan/Provision/CM10/etc. have been pretty damn stable and impressive, depending on how you use it.

My wife's old phone (now handed down to my daughter 5 days ago) and my own are running CM7.2. Very stable, good battery life, I know wifi hotspot with security works 100%, and everything works too,
I've also recently tried tiny's cm10.1, and it was great, full featured and almost everything worked, but it had kinda bad battery life and I did run into enough small bugs (like having to run a script for trackball wake, and other minor annoyances) to cause me to flash back to 7.2.
I haven't tried a sense rom since 3.0 so I cannot help you there.
Everyone enjoys different things, for example my wife doesn't care what she is running as long as it doesn't lag or crash, and she can install and run all of her golauncher/locker/sms/contacts apps.
CM10.1
I'm on CM10.1 and it's pretty good, although the battery life isn't great as it was on a GB rom.
tiny's cyanogen 10.1 rom is awesome. great battery life for me
I play quite a bit of games.

I play bad piggies, and a few other games, all the time.
Tiny's CM10.1 had amazing battery life while the screen was off, seriously - amazing...
but it would lose about 1% per minute with the screen on and doing a lot bit of touching, such as with a game like bad piggies, or texting. It may have been just me, something with the luxe on the install i was running, or something even more mysterious. Not a bad battery, though, because the drain went away when I went back to CM7.2
Just handed down my OG to my 6 year old son a few days ago. We jumped up to GS4.

I'm retiring my HTC Inc to be used as a GPS / Flight computer. I'm looking for a ROM that is staggeringly basic, and minimal to achieve the best battery life and simplicity. Any suggestions for a "no-frills" basic ROM?

how's battery life?
10.1 has amazing idle/sleep battery life. You get a steady decline with the screen though. With above average use I get around 10-14 hours depending on what I'm doing. With very light usage I've gotten 2 days (I have a 3 week old battery)
Try pons cm10.2 it is amazing for being the last android version besides kitkat lol the only thing not working for people is data and I have not tested it yet.

Excellent. I've gone 3 days on standby (barely talking/data). Average us you can go 1 full day no problem.
Watching videos or browsing on your commute... have a charger waiting at your destination... but that goes for a stock Inc too.
I've tried rooted stock, CM6, CM7, CM7.1, CM7.2, CM10, and CM10.1 so far on my Inc, and I'd say for merely using it as a dumb device, I'd go with CM6 or rooted stock, oddly enough. It was the last version without any weird quirks like GPS not locking, camera preview messing up, or lower resolution video capture.
Since I still use my Inc as my daily phone, I've been switching back and forth between the last nightly of CM7.2 and whatever's newest (CM10.2 is in the queue to test).

My vote is rooted stock, specifically this one. I use mine as a dashcam mostly, and this is the only one which is fast, has good battery life all around, and works reliablly recording in 'high quality' in autoguard. Granted I have not attempted any 4.x rom since the early ICS builds.
I would never go back to stock on my Inc the cm10.2 is amazing on this phone for speed and stuff unless u need data right now and I think gps locks and works
