Im not new to the rom game but have a simple question. Less of a question and more a request for some tips
Is there any lists or apps (like Goomanger) where I can find roms that work 100% on my G2?
I hate installing a rom then setting up all my accounts and a week later realize that the gps or wifi isnt working right because of the rom.
I know I can read through the forum but countless times I download a rom thats suppose to work 100% and a week later I find a problem.
I did notice some of the roms on like Goo manger work better than just downloading one off the forum but it limited options. Any tips or is this just the nature of the game? Granted I have resorted to just rooting and modding my stock rom but its not the same.
Kinda what i have been wondering myself, i haven't found a custom rom yet that works 100%. If anybody knows of one, please let me know.
Super g2 is awesome and I hear a zvd based Rom is on its way other then the artifesto 2faced Rom.

To be honest, I have been on at least 1/2 a dozen custom ROMs and and feel the best option is stock rooted for me. I use xposed and the split window mod and that's all the customizing I need.
As supasanch24, said. Stock is not to bad. A little clean up though, and it runs fine.

ok this is BY FAR the best ICS experience. I've had every rom and they've all done a decent job but this is amazing. no lag at all, holding home button to pull up recent apps is smooth, swiping to close is snappy, and the browser feels up to date! Im in love again. This + Air Kernel= ICS heaven

Is there a place that lists most/all/many of the popular ROMs and their haves/not haves?
I had VaelPak on my old Evo 4g and it had a really neat feature that I could remove all the sliders from the lock screen and use gestures that I create to unlock it. I could also set applications to open with certian gestures. Would love that if any ROMs have it. I heard a while back that one of the CMs did, but not sure if CM9 or 10 have it.
I am looking for a very customizable ROM that can do call recording, I also really like the Samsung keyboard. And I want a ROM that all components (wifi/4g/camera/NFC) still work. also need wifi teather, but I think most ROMs have that.
I did look in the development forum, but many don't list the features and "broken" parts.

Just stick with touchwiz ROMs . and there isn't such a thing as the best ROM. Every ROM is great in its own way and all depends on the user. Touchwiz can do all that you are asking . unsure about call recording. There might be an app for that on the market.

And when you say that threads don't say what their features are. You must not read a lot. Every single ROM I see has a list of features and bugs section.

Whats wrong with something aosp based? Cm10 reached its stable release and runs flawless. even the nightlys of 10.1 are stable as hell for being brand new and expected to have bugs. Touchwiz sucks and lags like hell. Nicks that shiit, you wont regret it. And if youre looking to customize a lot try aokp. Youll spend days customizing it.

LOL Now now. I didn't mean to start anything. I know there will be several opinions and I expect to flash at least 3 or 4 ROMs just trying to not flash 20 ROMs. Takes too long to configure each one.
One question about AOKP. is that a "type" of ROM or is that "A" ROM? Also I find a lot of different things about CM10, but I am still not sure where to get the stable release. I am not interested in nightlies or test versions. And I have flashed my share of ROMs but what are gaps? That is a new one.
Thanks for all your help!

Whats up guys?
I have a basic question.. I have the Note 2 from AT&T and my buddy just got the HTC 1. We are both running 4.1.2 but his phone looks different like the status bar for example. Is it possible I can remove Touchwiz and run the basic 4.1.2 while still keeping features with the S-Pen? I just want the S Note app to work.. I dont use the S-Pen to hover over information.
Let me know, Thanks in advance
On a second note I dont think I want to **** with the ROMs again until I fully understand.. Close this thread please
Any tw based rom should run spen.
Some aps may not work 100%
But there's always decent work arounds.
Im running an outdated rom and s pen works great. Good idea about reading up though. Remember to always make a bu in recovery and you should be safe.
Happy flashing!

I think I might just wait for the update for the Note 2. The S4 is running 4.3.3 I believe.. I wonder why I havent gotten it yet. I want the brighter status bar along with the icons. Im rooted but running stock ROM.. should I remove root when the update comes?

Your friends 1 is running sense 5 which may have a different looking status bar/icons than TW will provide. You can't really expect to see the same thing from the 2 frameworks.
You haven't got the 4.3.3 update yet because nobody has gotten it from sammy. You'll see it once sammy drops it and your carrier chops it up.

Sammy needs to hurry up, Im ready for change! I tried custom ROMS and it wasnt fun. I almost bricked my device. I'd like to stay rooted but stay on an official ROM if possible. Whats weird is, I had 8 counts towards the flash, then I used samsung kies to get a stock firmware and it now says:
Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 count)
Custom Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom

Ok, so long story short.
I purchased my Note 2 on Craigslist and it is a sgh t889. It was supposed to be unlocked, but surprise its not. So, I unlocked my S3 by flashing the stock ROM back to 4.1.1 so no bid deal right, i would just do this too.
Ok so I got a bit big for my britches and then I decided to root and install custom ROM. I have spent the last 2 days reading and then last night I did it. I have read until my eyes are hurting.
I used Jedi ROM X20. It seems to be working fine, but I have a few issues.
I cant call out or anything phone related, text, mobile data. No nothing zilch. I tried checking the APN settings still nothing.
Since I am actually an AT&T customer, should of I actually of used a AT&T ROM instead of a T mobile ROM?
Secondly, I cant move use my ext sd card? is that normal?
Lastly, I need a flash player to work but cant find one that will download? Is there one that will work. I have download numerous and Im getting so frustrated.
Obviously, I am not that tech savy but I can follow directions well for a 35 yr old single mom of 3. Maybe I shouldn't of done this but I cant be without a phone either, ughhh
My whole purpose of installing a custom ROM was to get rid of bloatware. So, If you think there is a more stock like ROM without all the stupid apps I never use, please send me a link, a lifeline...phone a friend...something.
I did donate to the dev of the couple of things I used to get this far and I would gladly donate to anyone else that will help me figure out my problem.
Thanks for your time,
Jenn (the very apparent noob)
You are fine with a tmo ROM and actually Jedi X are international based anyways. The phone not working could be a problem, but let's check something. Go into your settings and check if your imie is still showing correctly.

Thank you! So, I checked the imei and its good. I put someone else's sim in and it worked great. So, that has to be a sim card issue.
I still cant figure out how to save to extsd card?
Also a flash player app, if one exists? I work from home online, but use my phone a lot as well. When I try to upload photos via Facebook it says please download flash player?
Thanks again!
I don't run AOSP ROMs, but last I remember the card will need to be formatted to FAT32 to work with that ROM.
Also, for flash I get mine from the Adobe archive. Here's the link scroll just scroll down to the Android 4.0+ downloads.

Thanks, I read some and found "W03 Slim V5" I'm a fan of slimkat roms, I had it on my S3, I currently have it on my Note 2, so I guess I'll install this for my friend. I wish he knew how to do this for himself.
This isn't even my phone model, and I agree.

He's never going to get the same experience as someone else anyway. He should pick a rom he thinks looks interesting and run it for a few days to see if it's running well on his device. He's the one who should be looking through them and learning how to do the whole process from you.

All of the roms are good, and all have their own little touch, you would need to flash a couple and see which one floats the boat, all of the people here are correct....just find the one that fits you best....

OK, thanks guys, I've decided to give him the slimkat rom I mentioned earlier. I just have to get home first and prep the files for rooting then installing the room, I'm most definitely going to teach him how to do it him self. If this were my note 3 I would've tried so many roms by) within the first 24 hrs of having the device lol.
If he wants AOSP, I've tried most of them and, in my opinion, Sinless ROM GooglePlay Rendition is the best. SUPER FAST. Or Gummy Rom which is also great. If he wants TW, I would go either Jedi or DarthStalker although they're both JB. TW kitkat I would go with MyRom, but its a bit finicky.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
One of the roms that I like personally is X note rom. It's a rom for international version hence there's a need to flash a fix file.
Currently it's based on kit Kat and hence I am waiting for a proper kernel and the fix file.
This rom has some good features that are useful for me
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Hmm, I love AOSP, but I'm not sure I'd load up AOSP for someone who can't figure out how to do it themselves. More than likely, it will not be as stable or feature rich for the end user as compared with TW. I would highly recommend Tweaked 2.0. It's stock based, and all the options/features implemented are completely stable and do not interfere with each other. Tweaked is what you can load for your significant other without having to hear them complain 3 days later about how their "phone messed up".
Jedi Elite v5 w/ Saber.
The ROM is super stable, solid and clean. Battery life is excellent.
Look no further...just flash this ROM.
