Plzz i do not ask for fastest/best rom, but for stable one with less bugs. The arc s is for my bro , so i cant choose one of these billions of roms, because i cant try every rom. Its not my phone.
I know the rules of xda!!

There is no stable KitKat ROM, they all have certain flaws still.
And all ROMs become slow over time. If you wish to join the custom ROM world, you have to learn to maintain ROM's speed and efficiency.

Rating Rom Thread

As-salam-o-alikum,
Hi guys,
I just want to know about different custom roms and before the installation i need to know three things about it
Stability
Appearance
Performance
This thread can help all the users who are going to try or install new custom rom,
So,
Please rate the rom you are currently using in these three categories from out of 10 how much you give and the name of rom of course.
I think you got my point.
Thank you.

No, rating and comparing roms is rude to the developers.
Sent from my Nexus 7
yup,
m agree with u,
but is there any other way to know about custom roms before installation?
because its difficult to install n check every rom.
Screenshots, specifications of the rom, reading other's replies what they are facing issues with the rom they're tesing/using and much more.
Check comments.
m doing the same thing,
but still long process,
ok then there should be all in one thread which describes every rom,
its screen shots, specifications, also its completed or wip

cm7/gingerbread = stable
ics = stable but not as stable as gingerbread
jb= stable,but experimental and not bugfree.
base every rom on wich android version its based on.
stability, battery and features are different in my opinion:
stability>battery>features. more important>less important
gingerbread is most stable andbest for battery, but less features.
ics is balanced. stable and features, but not as good with battery then Gingerbread, and not as good with features as jellybean
jellybean is the less stable, but has the most features. less battery though.

[Q] Fastest-most stable-nicest custom ROM ?

Hey Guys,
I have been using cyanogenMod 10 Jb but i kinda feel like i need to change to another better ROM(dont care if JB or ics but NOT GB)... i want a ROM that is stable, Very Fast (i cant live with a lag) and nice... any recomendations ?
Please do not clutter the forums with threads like this.
All of the ROMs are special in it's own way. Try the ones available and stay on the ROM that suits you the best.

[Q] most stable/speed ROM for this phone??

Yo guys what's the latest most stable and fastest ROM for this phone??
What I meant by latest most stable is For example If there are ROM which are 4.4 but is beta and 4.3 which is stable then 4.3 is the latest stable
I normally don't ask this kind of question but my friend passed to me his arc and I don't have time to test all Roms out there.
Yes I tear every single ROM for my xperia ray and note 1 Lol
There are not best/fastest ROMs out there. Every ROM is unique and can't be compared to another one.
Nevertheless, all ICS ROMS are stable (more or less) because they are stock-based. If you wan't a JB/KK ROM, there will be bugs like camera glitches. All of them are CM-based. CM10/CM10.1/CM10.2 are pretty stable. CM11 is in alpha stage.
Choose the one that best corresponds to you.
Cheers.

That. Speed and stability depend on how you use your phone. The only way to find out, which one fits you, is to try them out yourself. If we recommend one, then we get blamed for recommending one that does not fit you.

[Q] Most stable KitKat ROM for Desire Z?

Im wondering right now what is the most stable KitKat ROM for the Desire Z? I know it cant be stable AND no lag so lets just go with stable....Right now, I have a 4.2.2 ROM that is OK but sometimes it reboots ALL day and suddenly stops and is stable (and no lag).
Which 4.2.2 rom do you have?
For now, nothing on KK is better than the AlterNdromadus 4.2.2

Its guhl's permissions ROM.
I am not looking for a 4.2.2 ROM. I asked for a 4.4.x ROM.
Thank you for your reply but that is not what I am asking
so try purekat, it's not stable but for me the most stable

To be clear, I wanted to tell you that KK Roms are far away from being as stable as this 4.2.2 rom.
So, I went back on 4.2.2.
The only thing that are better on KK : the clock, dialer and contact apps (aesthetically)
I'm waiting for PureKat beta3 (after Marco's exams !).

So, I never mentioned anything about 4.2.2.
Besides, AlterNdromadus 4.2.2 being a CM ROM, is problably slow as hell compared to AOSP....

It is not IMO.
I just gave you my feed-back. You're free to test it by yourself. I will be happy if you find a KK Roms which deserve to stay on it on our device...

No, your preconceptions are incorrect. Firstly, CM is based on AOSP and does not diverge away enough (ala MIUI) to ruin performance. Secondly, CM is actually better performing because with CM we have more up to date libs etc. especially for qcom stuff like libhardware. Due to there never being AOSP support for this device and HTC stopping official support at 2.3, then clearly CM stuff is gonna work better for our device. Why do you think the Andromadus team stopped AOSP 4.2.2 after beta8?
Now the one case where AOSP is faster (for me) is Fyodor's 4.2.2 ROM, because he put in the effort to get all the libhardware stuff and qcom display stuff working nicely.
If you don't believe me then sync the latest Andromadus AOSP 4.2.2 source (as of around the end of 2012 I think), build it, and tell me you prefer it to their most recent CM build.

This is true, and the only advice I can give also. Besides, there are only 2 KitKat ROMs to choose from: Andromadus test builds or Marco's PureKat (CyanKat, AOSB are out of date so won't be stable).
I might like to add that this thread is against the rules anyway so you should be grateful it hasn't been reported yet and accept the advice you've recieved (which has been good).
Essentially, for stability go with 4.2.2, for most stable KitKat it will take you a total of 2 whole flashes to find out which one you prefer.

Every 4.2.2 ROM Ive tried that is based on CM vs AOSP is slower. On AOSP you lose some nice features, but Its always seemed slower and more of a memory hogger.
Seems to me that way anyways.

Newer isnt always better.
Also:
I was thinking of updating this, but I've lost my G2. I can't blind dev and I ran into enough difficulties as it was when I could test it. Java is just too confusing for me right now, so much more confusing than C which I'm only just starting to get comfy with. Unfortunately the lag is just a problem you'll have to get used to, backup and clean flash and wait a while. I couldn't do anything tobhelp you anyway, I just don't know how. I can give you the age ole tips: no task killers, no placebo scripts, minimal apps, minimal gapps, no hangouts, no Facebook, no heavy browsers (opera mini is great) but yeah I'm really sorry but there won't be any updates. As it is I think the ROM works well anyway. I'm no dev so if you want someone to support then turn to Flinny, Marco, NeverGone, etc. It sucks that my goal to have a stable sorta up to date ROam was dashed but that's life. Thanks to the people who liked the ROM anyway

1: Java is more confusing than C? Wow....
2: Saying "lag is just a problem youll have to get used to" is a no no. Like I mentioned, the ROM Im currently on is almost lagless but just has the problem of suddenly becoming stupid and rebooting all the time. Other than that, it is great.
3: Saying that the ROM works well anyways when you are mentioning that it lags and also recommending several comprimises like no heavy browsers and no minimal apps is just a no-no. Im sure this ROM had its time and its moment but its been out matched.
I guess Ill stay on this ROM for now and hope that KK development gets better. That or Phonebloks...
Im using a lower end phone these days because of a nonrelated issue and it already has 4.4.2! Im just surprised.
It also works pretty damn good considering the speed and RAM it has.
For me AOSB 1.2.9 is faster but Flinny's alpha3 is most stable because using AOSB it some times gets reboot especially when open es file explorer .quick pic etc.But AOSB consumes a lot of customizations its really good.

A Stable 5.1.x rom needed...

HI, I tried all the 5.0.2 and 5.1 roms (didnt tried 5.1.1) all hav same problem in slight multitasking the phone just hangs it doesn't respond till I reboot it, and chrome doesnt work at all bcoz as I browse in chrome after a page or two the phone hangs. It only happens in lollipop, all kitkat roms r working fine.
Plz tell a rom that doesnt hang on multitasking. Say as per ur experience..
I loved CM12.1 r4. And for pure AOSP experience SlimLP(Have to say it is too good) and currently on EuphoriaOS. It is also awesome. These are what I loved. And I used xcelerate custom kernel on CM12 r4 which greatly enhanced my phone. This varies between users and i highly advise u to try and get a feel yourself. Multitasking is a breeze in these as far as I know.

So which to choose
Say the best plz 0
Personally i love Euphoria. Feels good. But I really cant choose the best. All roms for armani are equally good. And xcelerate boosts ur phone's performance and battery too.
Edit: I feel u need many more users' opinions too. Just wait for a while
Press thanks if I really helped

Theres no LP rom that perfect with no bug whatsoever, all still in development ATM, but everyone have their interest to what are the features of each custom rom has offered.
So everyone had their best fit to their needs, gaming or daily use.
IMO, at least you can read their feedback post at each LP custom rom you interested at and decide it by yourself
I just want to use apps like chrome, wa, fb, fk, at once and kikat roms do it well but lollipop lags like hell

Hey OP.........
if you want a stable rom then develop it for yourself
don't expect too much from testing/beta stage roms

Im couldnt agreed with you.

Even i got 5hrs + SOT and no lagging (you can check my post) at all while when im at cm12.1 r4 build, theres nothing that i cant tolerate regarding their bug, just minor. And used it as my daily device for everything you said on app to use.
And now still messing around with cm12.1 r5

5.0.x has a memory leak bug. I tried CM12.1 (clean install) and had poor battery life and overheating. Changing the governer to powersave helped abit. I didn't try custom kernels. Lollipop isn't stable for daily use, I'll go back to kk.
