I myself have been thoroughly enjoying INFAMOUS S4. It has the features I need, is faster than stock, and is very stable with great battery life. Just did a full backup of 3.3 and upgrading to 3.4 as I type this

does INFAMOUS S4 rom get rid of the bloatware?

Sure does. They also have a zip with the bloat should you require it for some reason.

Instead of giving you a particular ROM suggestion, I'll give you the best way to find the one that best suits you. First, you have to decide what features you want. If you want all the smart stays, the air move, and the other Samsung stuff, you definitely want TouchWiz. If you want a (negligibly) more responsive feel that's more barebones and to the core of Android, go with one based on/around CyanogenMod (or even the Google Edition). Before flashing any new ROMs I'd spend at least an hour reading through both the Android Development and Original Android development sections. You don't have to read every page of every thread, but at the very least read the OP. You should know within the 1st page what features are included, whether it's TouchWiz or not, if it's themed, etc. Most of the TW ROMs are already debloated and will say so in the OP. The CM bases have no carrier bloat at all. If it interests you, take a look at the last few pages. The reason you want to read the last few pages is to get a feel of what bugs are present. As the ROMs get updated and the threads grow, chances are that problems reported on the 3rd page aren't going to be relevant on page 26. If you try one you like, make a nandroid backup of it and keep the backup updated: that way, if another one pops up that you want to try, or you just feel adventurous and want something new, you'll have your backup(s) and can much more easily surf between ROMs if you so desire.
I've gone through Wicked, Jedi, Infamous S4, Infamous Google Edition, and Alpha roms. Personally, I liked Jamison's Infamous roms the best. I'm currently on his Alpha rom, which is based on the international phone's firmware(or something like that?) and has no wifi calling. But it's pretty smooth. Currently Jamison seems to be the fastest on updating all three of his roms, so if you want continual added features/bug fixes go with any of his roms. Wicked was very nice and stable when I used it, but I got flash-happy and couldn't stick with it since he updates like once a month. In the end it's all up to you though.
P.S. The Infamous S4 and Alpha roms recently have had the Samsung apps added back in, not sure why cos I haven't really read all the posts in the thread. You can easily remove them yourself though.

The Rom that works for you is the best to use everyone is different....... phones are built different places so they are different.........
Try not to flash on New but on what you need or best like..... find that in a rom and put up with the other inequities just like the rest of us do.......... that is the best advice
Best Rom thread cause Flame wars......... So...........
.......... THREAD CLOSED ...........
Hello guys, my question is which rom is now best to use (most stablest, best performance) for rom with Android 4.4.2 KitKat for HOX? What do you advise to me?
Like we say this to everyone who is asking this......try them yourself, test them for a couple of days. Then pick the one which suits you personally the best, there is no "best" rom at all. The best rom is the rom that has all features that you need as a user of that specific rom.

More than a year ago I installed an ICS custom ROM on my Sister's Arc and now I want to upgrade this phone to a better ROM,
I want to know which rom will be good and stable for this phone?
And how to install the new rom
The bootloader is locked so I guess I will have to unlock it first
I am thinking about installing PA 4.4.4 ROM but I am not sure if it is stable or not
Please let me know if you need any more info
Any help is hugely appreciated .
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm searching for a stable ROM, with android >= 4.3 (under 4.3.X, my cardiosport doesn't work). The ROM must be stable (no update need, everything is working fine, low battery consuption, etc)
So, based on your experience, which rom is stable?
Thanks.
this will probably soon lead to a rom comparison thread and they are forbidden.
Just pick a few you like the most and test them for a couple of days. That's the best tips i can give you.
