So I just got this phone and I really want to root it and start flashing some roms lol. I was looking through the development section and it didnt look like there were very many that were being kept up on. Can any one recommend one. I like cm11 based roms or roms with theme chooser.

This has been stated time and time again. It's all a matter of preference. Read the stickies, educate yourself on the matter, then pick what suits you best. One size does not fit all, and we don't know what size you are.

Okay so I see a few CM roms Ive flashed them before but never really kept them. Getting bored of samsung I guess and hoping this will let me want to keep the Note 2, I love EVERYTHING about it except the software. So Which one is the most reliabile and stock that runs quick or as good as a stock touchwiz rom?
Try them and find what you like best. What I like may be different than what someone else likes. I don't like paranoid on this phone, others love it. Its what YOU want.

Whats the reason that you dont like it?
I`m just looking for speed,battery and reliability , I was between that and pac-man`s but I dont want much extras
I don't like it cus it's made for a nexus so it has the on screen menu button in places, it's just not my thing. I like root box, and right now I'm on jedi cm. The batter is really good. I got about 5 hours screen on time today and that's with ingress running for over an hour. That uses lots of battery and gps is on the whole time playing.

Which one is more nexus like? Not meaning the buttons. But more stock android without all the addons people like in cm. Just like pure cm but stable

Go to the original development section and look at the jedi cm rom. It's what your looking for. It's pretty much stock cm with a few nice tweaks. Not as much customization as say liquid or carbon or the others. Pac man and root box and paranoid all have lots of extras I never use.

How good is the office CM`s? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2105917
Cause they seem VERY stock.
Yes that is stock cm. I haven't used it though. Just try it out
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
OP, the most reliable stock that runs quick or as good as stock....is Stock, nothing wrong with Stock. But as other pointed out, you will just have test and run, as it seems you have....bottom-line it is all on you, with to many different variables involved from user to user....you have to just test the waters of Stockish ROMs for yourself.
Thanks
Why do all cm10 based roms have so many problems and why do they all look the same ?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
What are all the problems? There are quiet a few new ones but many very stable. Someone correct me if I am wrong'but I believe most all use cm as a base ROM. Each has there own features and functions.
I have zero issues with dastins cm, kts AOKP, snipers PAC or PAC in black, gave carbon, slim, and pretty much every other ROM a test drive no issues. Personally I keep going back to PAC love all the features .
It's not hard to flash them, see what fits your desires hardest part, well longest is downloading them and playing with settings. I find myself only staying on one for a few days at a time. Nothing wrong with the ROMs but rather enjoying playing with them and seeing what new goodies they bring to the table.
EDIT: that's kind of like saying all tw ROMs look the same they all have tons of hours of work put into them themed and tweaked to the designers liking but cuz its all tw they all look the same. Just my two cents...

They all look similar because they are AOSP, the same OS you would see on a Nexus product, and not a skinned manufacturer based ROM like Touchwiz, Sense, Blur...

Aaaaaaaaaand that's a wrap. Your question has been answered (undeservingly), and if you would have searched a little more, your answer would have came to you.
Hello everybody. I've been flashing a few ROMs lately since July, and there is so much stuff out there...I was just on Alpha Rom, now I'm trying out Tasker650 AOKP, and now I'm curious, what are the most customizable touchwiz and non touchwiz (cm/aokp/aosp) ROMs out here right now.? Thank you in advance for your input.

All you have to do is read the change log in the very first post. It'll tell you what's included in the ROM.

Users are expected to read and do research and find what hey specifically want.
Asking is like requesting a free for all of people telling you want they like or prefer. Take your tie go to the development threads and you will find the answers.

Get one of those phones then. Or make your own rom.

You're complaining about not enough ROMs for our device? Hmmm just the other day some guy was complaining that there are too many ROMs for this device.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
LOL. Yup. I even wonder why we need so many roms. A lot are so similar. I won't complain.....but we do have a lot of stuff for an old phone. A lot!

Come on guys, clearly something is wrong with ou. We must find this "ou" and ask him/her if everything is okay.

And I didn say we dnt got enough roms we jus dnt got any s4 roms at all none...point blank

Touchwiz is not an easy thing to tinker with.....plus it seems here that the majority of people don't care for it......so the demand for it is very low. In fact, there's only like 3 or so custom touchwiz jb roms...vs tonnes of aosp.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
You cant port something without a base...we don't have a base for 4.2 touchwiz yet so we cant get s4 roms. Also like @kj2112 said its not easy....have you ever wondered why a touchwiz rom is 3 times larger than an aosp rom with gapps baked in?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Also....custom tw roms only have a few extra options usually....cause there is really only so much you can do with them.
Check out xposed. There's a lot you can customize with it. Just do a good nandroid first. Sometimes I find exposed can mess things up.

Have a great day!
Liquidsmooth was my favorite 4.3 ROM by far. I wanted to make the jump to 4.4 and SlimKat seemed to be the next best thing. I'm currently running SlimKat RC3 and love that PIE is finally back. However, the recently released Liquidsmooth beta has caught my eye. I don't really have time right now to flash both and compare the two, but can anyone tell me if there's anything I'm missing out on? I'm probably gonna end up flashing both anyways but what do you guys think of it so far?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Wanna know which is better?
The one you like the most after trying both.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
Yes, but I'd like to know what others think too. Is comparing ROMs looked down upon here? I don't post here that much.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
OK so I ended up flashing Liquidsmooth and really enjoy it so far. There's a few more customization options than SlimKat, and while they're both excellent ROMs, I think this one suits my needs better. There are a few annoying bugs that I'll post about in the developers forum once I reach my ten post requirement but I'm sticking with it as it can only get better.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Sorry folks...we do not do these comparison or best rom threads as XDA is not a support site.
All the products here are awesome, try them all, make your own independent determination as to what suits you.
