[Q] TW Roms - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I hate asking about ROMs.....but......I've been running the latest (last) version of MacksRom since it was released. My question is, without reading through all the ROM offerings, are there any other TW based ROMs?
Macks has been very solid and I've flashed a couple others...but always keep coming back to Macks. Really like some of the features in TW and would like to find another.
Thanks,
Coz

Yes, I'm running digiblur's 4.1.2 with Perseus kernel and am loving it. It's basically a completely de-bloated stock rom and it is rock solid.
There is a complete rom list thread in either the development or general forums. It lists each available rom and categorizes them by AOSP or TW.

Well if it isn't the leader of the CozBoogie militia himself...Coz, I second Digiblur's ROM. It's a clean, rock solid base. Then just search around for any mods you want to add (WiFi tether, etc).

Yea I've tried em all ,and IMHO josh beach's jellybombed is TW best ROM.
But if you want 4.3.1 goodness then CM 10.2 and CarbonRom are solid.
My daily is the latest CM nightly...
just my opinion though.

Synergy 0605, 04 was beautiful but gotta keep testing.
Stock rooted 2.2 (just until netarchy gets his 2.3 kernals out) with some of the crapware removed via root explorer. Pretty good experience overall. Nice and snappy and battery life is decent.

Try Synergy or MikG v1.01. Both of those roms are solid in my experience, and everything is 100% working. I have no issues with either of them.
And to answer the OP's question, I'm currently on deck 1.2v, but will be flashing to 6/6 Synergy build here in a few. I can never decide between AOSP and sense. I love them both. I nandroid back and forth between synergy, mikg, deck, and salvage mod CONSTANTLY. There is seriously something majorly wrong with me. I do not have the ability to stay on a rom for more than a day at a time. I wish they all weren't updated so often, hahaha (that's crazy to say..) maybe then I wouldn't be so tempted to flash the next updated and better version. Damnit, I'm hopeless.

Kushdeck has ruined me with his rom. I haven't flashed anything in about a month. I tried the new sense roms, for a day, and missed my deck rom so I'm right back. As soon as I get that 3d and cm or deck has fine tuned cm, I'm gone from sense again.

I switch back and forth between SalvageMod and Synergy. I have Synergy currently installed.

I want to try ICS, Still on GB? Time to switch?

What ICS based roms, do you guys suggest me to use? I'm getting bored of GB, on Blazer 4.1 at the moment. And I'm craving for something new. Thanks.
I looooooove aokp. But thats just me.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
I'm liking agat63's tFE16 (or earlier, I guess) stuff.
I went from Blazer to ICS and then went back after a few weeks. No where near as smooth GB is insane on this phone! Just my opinion tho!
I'm with the porn doctor, tFE16 is the way to go. It's fast, stable, and everything I've used works, except that Samsung socialhub doesn't sync Facebook pics to contacts. Scrolling has also been MUCH improved over previous ICS leaks.

Lol, time to change your signature a little bit?
I don't think there is a bad ICS rom on this forum. Try a few out and see what you like. I'm liking cm9 and AOKP right now but the TW stuff is pretty cool too!
There is a fantastic selection to choose from and I've probably tried almost all of them. Currently I'm on Blu Kuban. It's easy to install, comes with a handy ROM Updater and runs super smooth.

I second that one! I'm loving this Blu Kuban myself. I've gone thru about 5 different ROMS before settling on this one. It's a matter of choice, but this ROM is well put together.

Who would recommend miui, I love the simple interfaces and themes! But how stable and good is it now?

[Q] What is your setup?

I was just wondering since we now have our own Q&A, what is everyone running? Which ROM, Kernel, custom tweaks? I only ask because I myself am running latest CM9 with Trinity Alpha 37 Kernel. It is running very smooth and have had no problems, but I find myself wanting to go back to Stock because of the little extras, ie camera. So just want to get everyons experiences. Please don't hate lol.
FreeGS3 R4 with Trinity Alpha 23.
Very snappy and smooth; however, battery life is still a struggle.
Stock, Apex Launcher. Former flash-a-holic.. if that tells you anything
See I miss Stock, but there is SO much crap running that I get lost trying to keep it under control. Would love a cleaner that actually works.

I plan on moving to CM10 once a few issues are fixed but for now I guess I will stick with CM9. I am have no issues at all and runs smooth as butter. Battery life is amazing too. I just wish the camera app was better.
Stock. Go launcher. Thinking of flashing a kernel, Trinity to be exact. Staying stock with ROM for now.
Rooted and debloated, the stock kernel is working pretty well for me. Smooth, great battery life and all functions including camera working as they should. Why are you guys switching kernel?

I just want to!! I finally had the courage to root my phone...after years of thinking about doing it. I bricked it last week flashing a rom...stupidly. Now, I figure let me try flashing a kernel...mostly because I just want to. A little better performance is nice too.

Stable ICS ROM

Whats the fatest and most stable ICS which has a great battery life. Tried JB roms and I think there battery life is ok not good for day to day use in my view .
Tersus Status is really good. Battery lasts crazy long and runs smooth as hell. Isn't laggy like some ics roms can be.

I agree, there are several posts just like this. Do some research. That being said - try out blazer and calkulins, and/or re-calked.

I just asked to see what's the popular rom out there .I know each phone is different but never hurts to ask for opinion .

Re-Calk 0.2.1 seems to be a good replacement for the old Blazer Rom 0.1.5 since he stopped updating.
I suggest running the Agat 6.2 kernel with the Re-Calk, seems to be a nice combo. If you want the data speeds though, do Agat's repacked kernels.
I usually to go back to Re-calk/Blazer Rom all the time after flashing every other rom under the sun just to test drive, but like every one else said, depends on your phone, depends how you tweak your settings, and it has been discussed before.

:good: Agreed. I've tested a quite few roms and kernels since being on JB and this is the current combo I've settled on (Re-Calked 0.2.1 with Agat kernel). You'll be glad to know it's also MHL HDMI out compatible as well...
Tersus Status- It is like the calk's gb for ics.! Way to go _dan!

Introduction to the New to the Galaxy Note 2 device!! Couple questions!

So I came from the Galaxy s2 device and from there began my venture of rooting and flashing custom ROMS and kernels, on my gs2 device I was extremely fond of aosp based ROMS like CM 10 and aokp.. those ROMS were awesome on my gs2! My fiance got me the device I've been wanting for a while now, > >the note 2 << and I absolutely LOVE it! I was running stock root for a while, ,because it seemed as if the ROMS that were developed for the device did/does not push the device to its full potential, I surprisingly became a fan of touchwiz as it is the only rom Imo that gave full potential to the device, I have recently flashed My ROM v5.1 and I love, but I'd like to try a different kernel I am running persius
kernel but I think it could be a little faster! What are some good kernels out there for our device? And how long do you think it'll be before there are any rom that will really push our device to its full potential.?

There's xone and saber kernels, I'm using frosty rom with perseus kernel right now. But i use also xone kernel. I've tried to overclock up to 2ghz but change it back to 1600ghz after a few days to extend battery life more. Jedi master is also a good rom.
POWERED by FROSTY!
Frosty ROM here also, plus xone kernel. Running good with no problems.
P.s here are my pitties

same boat as you, came from s2 camp went crazy with custom roms. stayed with mind tricks for a while.
got the note 2 and everything was just perfect, didnt feel the need to go with a different rom. just rooted it, debloated and enjoying it as is.
i don't think any rom will ever be at it's full potential. these devs are always hard at work adding new stuff and forever trying to make things better.
i also feel that no custom rom will ever be as stable as a stock carrier rom. thats just my opinion and hope i can be proved wrong one day if i decide to flash in the future
My frosty ROM has been as stable as a stock ROM, plus I get better battery life with the custom kernels

I believe xone can be used on any as long as its a touch wiz ROM. I haven't tried aos/kp on my note 2, already running that on my nexus 4.
