so i was using stock kitkat rom for almost a year now. yes i havent updated to lollipop cause i was rooted.
and now im planning to install a custom rom, because stock rom are not as smooth as they were as they first were.
and im looking for a change, lollipop roms preferably.
so which roms suits me the most, cloudy or cyanidel rom? the important thing of course is battery life and performance.
thank you!
Cloudy all the way may have to do a few tweaks to get to your liking on top of xcam for replacent for stock app i flash all kinds of roms and crap and always come back to cloudy xposed works pretty good there are a few modules i have probs with but no major deal breakers
---------- Post added at 11:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------
My opinion of coarse i like almost all the roms out for g3 multi varients all of them have there own special quirks i like
Cloudy is based on stock so you have all the advantages of the stock rom like:
-Camera driver
-Good battery life
-Stability
And for cyanide, its based on cyanogenmod, the adventages are:
-Smooth like butter
-Features
The choice is up to you depending of what you really want. Personally I'd go with a stock based rom because of the camera driver and the stability, I add xposed and I can have a lot of features.
But you can try one, do a nandroid backup, try the other and go back if you don't like it!
okay i think im gonna go for cloudy since i actually prefer stock feelings too.
one more question, can cloudy use lgg3tweakbox, Xinsta, Xstana using xposed without no problem?
some people says lg g3 on lollipop cant use some modules for e.g lgg3tweakbox
I use grav box tweekbox major one that dont work for me is advanced power menu
When u setup cloudy make sure u click in aroma installer to use exposed also you havento manually install the framework after u flash framwork zip youll thing u bootlooped but first boot after exposed takes a couple on min

I tried the following roms for the LG G3:
crDROID (AOSP Based Rom - Android 5.1.1)
Cloudy3G 2.5 (Stock based Rom - Android 5.0.X)
Fulmics 1.6 (Stock based Rom - Android 5.0.X)
My opinion:
crDroid : It was the smoothest rom I've tried until now but the I was disappointed by the battery life. The camera app is not the same as the stock rom camera app so the pictures quality is inferior.
Cloudy3G 2.5 : It was laggy for me, and it has a few bugs like the UI crashing when the phone is charging. The GPS has bugs as well. Cloudy is not being developed anymore.
Fulmics 1.6 : For now is the best stock based rom I've tried. It's smooth and it's always based on the latest updated stock rom from LG. Even better, the updates are via OTA so it's faster to update to the latest version of this custom rom.
Been really enjoying cloudy and I am super picky. I think you will be impressed, the developer did a really good job. Its working better than stock for me and feels quick no lag here.

For me, Fulmics ROM is better than Cloudy. Its much smoothier and I had gps problems on Cloudy.

so cloudy has gps problems? i used gps a lot that could be a problem for me.
i never check fulmics before.
what about cyanidel? no one mentions cyanidel?
so i switc hed to fulmics 2.0 just updated 2.1 and i love it smoother than cloudy and about the same battery life

I think it's because not a lot of people right now has been using cyanide (no updates since forever) and rr and bliss pop has taken the cm based limelight
Cloudy is okay but have some issues that will make you wanna flash another rom
Fulmics is much better but personally i've been losing data connectivity every once in a while.
Maybe try old timers like Lion, Chup Chups or Spartaxxx if you want stock
Or you can always try the cm based ones... like cyanide

All ROMs - both official builds from Google and Custom ROMS from our talented developers here on XDA - have bugs. Just a fact of digital life!
If you want the most stable build available, you're probably best served by Google's official releases. Scroll down for the different GNex versions/links.
If you want Lollipop, check out the Android Development board. Plenty of great developers and ROMs to chose from there. I have a 5.1 ROM linked in my signature below, as well.

thanks for the answer. i will try this 5.1 rom. Some roms have little bugs, and others like lollipop roms make the device not good for daily driver, like the camera not saving pictures, green lines on video etc. i will try some roms and leave the most stable on his device, but i think i will flash 4.1.2 in the end.

Man this device was a pain for me today. after wiping to install 4.1.2 the device disconnected. and the usb connector i think is faulty. i had to flash every bit of rom in fastboot and a lot of errors. so i installed 4.0 rom because system.img was smaller and took a lot of time to copy the 300mb file and finally the device booted. i ota to 4.1.1 and i think i will ota manually to 4.1.2 because on device already appeared 4.2.2 ota. do you think is worth update all the way to 4.3? the device is smooth and i like the camera app better than 4.2 rom with that awful lag to rotate. do you think is better have an updated device or keep it in 4.1.2?
AOSP Lollipop 5.1- a wee better than stock is the best lollipop I could find yet. It is near-stock Android, and the overall performance is very good comparing it to the age of this device. The only bad thing I can say about this device isbthat the battery is draining faster(it might be an issue with my phone). If you are brave enough(such brave, much wow), you can try to overclock to 1.5 and the performance will improve by a lot

Hello,
Its a long time ago that i rooted and put a custom rom on a android phone
Now i have a question.
What is the best custom clean Google experience rom, with a good battery life?
Greetzzz
What is your device that you are looking a ROM for?
The lg g3 d855 with the 3gb ram version.
The most i want vanilla Google
If you want a vanilla google experience then I would recommend Cyanogenmod or Mokee. These are probably as cm/aosp (I am pretty sure Mokee is cm based but don't take my word for it) based as you can get. You could also flash Paranoid Android 5.1.1 but the devs unfortunately have gone to work on oxygen OS.
If you want an aosp based rom with tweaks (Layers support): At the moment I would probably recommend XenonHD (in my opinion one of the smoothest roms and good battery life (for me anyway)). If you want nova launcher pre-installed I would recommend BrokenOS.
If you want a cm based rom (with tweaks) (CMTE support): Well I am running RR (Resurrection Remix) at the moment and I am loving it. I'm not sure if I am allowed, but if you want nova launcher pre-installed then I would recommend cyanide L.
I am assuming you know who cyanogenmod are. If not, I don't want to say anything that will get me flamed to oblivion by the community but they essentially make roms extremely close to google aosp.
Haha yes i know what cyanogenmod is
4 years ago i built my own custom rom but since then i stopped with developing anything for Android (bussy at my college).
Only functions i dont wanna lose is laser focus, 4k filming, knock on, and quick circle because i have a quick cover.
Then, the only possible rom that I think that you can flash without losing laser focus, 4k filming, knock on, and quick circle is novastock aosp styled. If you want quick circle you can install the quick circle theme app. I am pretty sure that you can flash a custom camera for 4k filming.
You will lose knock on. And for laser focus you will lose if you flash anything other than stock (I am pretty sure).
If you want a vanilla google experience you should flash one of the ROMs I suggested. But if you want to keep all those features the closest ROM that I can recommend is novastock 1.1 aosp styled.
Ah okay, thats the problem for me to put a custom rom on my phone, because i wanna use these functions.
Then your best bet would be novastock 1.1 aosp. It has all the functions and the devs try to make it as close to aosp as possible

And cloudyg3?
Cloudyg3 is a stock based ROM but will look like LG and feel like stock. With novastock it's themed to look like aosp. Also, cloudy has been stopped being developed
Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
Ah okay yeah i dont want a stock rom with a themed aosp over it, i rather then have the stock rom.
Haha i just will start first rooting my phone and then look futher tnx for your help!
No problem
Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
Now keep in mind with stock or in my case cloudy i use exposed modules and it is almost completly themeable i download keyboard themes from lg smartword but i love it all the themeing i need on mine is done througb exposed
So im done with stock kitkat lg g3 rom, i refused to update to official lollipop.
So ive been using stock rom for almost a year, and its getting really slow as time goes by, as expected. So i decided im gonna try a fresh new rom to flash.
Which one of you prefer, so fsr ive heard the best is
1. Cloudy
2. Fulmics
Which one is better to flash?
Im not gonna buy a new phone anytime soon cause i think lg g3 is still a beast with good specs even for 2016.
So which one should i flash and why?
Pls list advantage or disadvantage of each rom you prefer me to flash that would be great!
I say CloudyG3 (because of LG G4 UX) with Xceed kernel
Fulmics has more features, but personally I don't like old G3 UX as much as newer G4 UX
My advice: Try both and make your own decision

Totally agree, I had both and stayed with Cloudy because of G4 UX and apps.
Tried CM12.1, Cloudy 2.5 and Fulmics.
They are all really great with their own pros/cons. For me at least, the biggest let down for CM12.1 was camera functionality. CM just did not play nice at all.
Fulmics was nice, but the G4 theme port from Cloudy is money. Been on it for the past several days and usually feel the need to swap ROMs. Not with this one. Its a nice bump from stock G3 (d850).

Whats the advantage on using xceed kernel on cloudy?
Better battery life and performance?
Or i should just be fine with stock kernel with cloudy?
So i guess cloudy is the winner here. I like the g4 ux too.
But i heard some has gps problems on cloudy. If i do encounter it after i flashed cloudy, is there a way to fix it?
There is a rom called NovaStock 5.5 its awesome give a try to it, awesom battery life, no lag you will not be disappoint from it at all. But its not on xda. If anyone wants link PM me.

It is smoother and has more features than default Cloudy kernel. Can't say much about battery life, but it could be better too.
P.S. Install Synapse to control most of kernel setting.
Hi i am on stock MM rom and it is very slow, and i want to know which rom,kernel android 7 (7.1) nougat is the best without bugs and not working components...i saw something about cleanrom but i dont know..can you help me?

Nougat-based development is still in its early stages. While the G3 device tree is already rather stable, there are still lots of issues with apps.

As far as I know, there's no cleanrom for G3. Best shot will likely be CM14.1 these days. At least, they've got a pretty good device maintainer and everyone else is borrowing the device tree from there.
so you recommended me to wait a couple of days,weeks ?

If you are unhappy with your current ROM, you may as well give it a try. At least, nougat on G3 is fast, and the remaining bugs are not bad enough to make it unusable.
If you need something completely stable, you will likely have to wait a few more months.
what about situation now? any news? stable roms 7.1?
Since I am using marshmallow i notice that there is a battery drain and low performance, so i decide that why not use Kitkat rom after using it i am still amazed.
What's your suggestion ?
Do you know about multirom? It can help you have mm and kk just about a reboots distance.but it does require rooting and custom recovery(which I'm guessing you already have)
As for kk vs mm, i haven't tried sense based mm roms but with most of aosp based mm roms that i have tried devlop some quirk sooner or later .it does not break the daily use of the phone just an irritant.i only use mm because of doze. Because it really helps standby battery use . And with my sprint m8 , i can run mm roms with lp firmware , so its like best of both worlds.if you can live with an old ui then kitkat is still very relavant(as far as i know no major app is unusable on kitkat)

Thanks for your post,but can u tell me your rom that u using because i am having Harman/Kardon Edition.
A couple which suited me best
Turbo rom (had signal loss,dont know if it actually was signal problem or rom failed to correctly :nterpret signal strength,because other roms didnt)
Vanir aosp (still using)
CrDroid
cyanogenmod 13
Dirty unicorns
Resurruction remix( failed to get it to work properly ,got a lot of fc,but that was a 2months before)
Bliss pop - got slow after a while
Edit: oh and as for kitkat,haven't tried anything other than offical cm 11 and sense 6 official rom,both were rock solid without any issue
One more thing ,if you are big on audio,and is a fan of neutron music player,you can forget it on mm,audio quality degrades faster than a politician's character after election and other music players too can't match sense rons for audio quality but with neutron, difference is very high
would u prefer performance or design?
I will prefer customization mostly,performance at the expense of quality or stability or lack of customization is unwelcome in my phone
KK is almost 2 years old. Are you purposely omitting Lollipop, or just forgetting it exists (since you know, there is an "L" between K and M)?
KK is missing a huge number or security fixes. Being on an Android version that old is a terrible idea from a security perspective.
stock gpe mm or sense 6 with kitkat?
rooted can be optional
What do people recommend for updating to a custom rom for my HTC 10?
Ive used Resurrection Remix before on my old S4 but wondering what people recommend now.
Im currently on Stock marshmallow. Ive rooted and installed TWRP and SuperSU.

Can't really recommend any Nougat Roms at this time. Too many issues (at least on my device like the camera not working). Probably the top 2 Sense-based roms are Ledroid and Viper. You could try either of those. I can however highly recommend Viper10 V3.5.0. This is a flawless Marshmallow rom. I'm still on it and will be until the Nougat kinks are ironed out. Good luck. Happy flashing.

I don't recommand a Nougat Rom too, i've been taking a "quick" look at it and they are'nt really optimized.
On my HTC 10 (unlocked version) I'm actually on Ledroid's Rom.
Quick launch, smooth interface, very usefull multi task button and so beautiful notification's section.
BUT
My battery is like ice in summer, like i'm 4H SOT and was 5/6+H on marshmallow stock.
Can't connect on snapchat (I don't really care but you care maybe)
I have issues on the automatic luminosity which get super agressive and is buged (don't set up the luminosity while i'm in a dark room, broking my eyes...)
Sorry for my bad english, i'm French ! ^^'
Hope I helped you !
Thanks guys, ill have a play with ledroid and viper. Resurrection remix seems to have few problems aswell
@aceniz Venomrom or leedroid.. If it's aosp then I'd say RR.. But if for stability id stick with sense based.. Strip it of sense and htc apps then use the pixel or vanilla type launchers, this is what I do and it absolutely flies.
Thanks, Ive gone with Leedroid, everything seems to work on it so far. seems to be the most stable. just need to work out a few tweaks with it to get it working ok the way i want and itll be better than RR
