Can anyone point me to some stock based active/5.1 ROMs? On cloudy2.5 right now, would like to try some others. Haven't had the phone long enough to ditch stock yet; tried PAC ROM and didn't get wifi, and am leery about losing camera quality. And i'm coming from touchwiz bloatware, so the lg bloatware seems mild in comparison.
Look up fulmics smoother than cloudy and activly maintained is a stck based and i love it then im runnin exceed kernal u fulmics has its own update center too so u feel like ure getting otas also

Thanks, will give it a shot. Still doesn't look like 5.1 based though? Hoping a 6.0 based ROM isn't TOO far away...

There's no stock based rom on 5.1 because lg didn't released any 5.1 update.

Ok, so I got a G3 (UK SIM-free). Comes with KK 4.4.2. I've Rooted, installed recovery (with modem/EFS support and backed up everything) and customised with Xposed modules. New lollipop ROM has been released but I'm not sure I can do the things I need or want to do with Xposed on KK with the Lollipop custom ROMs currently available, like Gravitybox's expanded desktop options to remove dock or DS battery saver's tasty battery life gains..
Trouble is most of the custom ROMs that look good Android Now or Chupa Chups etc. only list Lollipop ROMs now and I can't find the last KK versions of these custom ROMs for download.
So what do I do? Do I stick with my customised 4.4.2? Do I go for a custom Lollipop ROM and risk losing the look and feel I like? Does any one know where a list of the last (most stable?) 4.4.4 KK versions of the good custom ROMs would be?
KK + Xposed for the win. Don't look back.
LP is not impressive enough for me to give up my Xposed. Running 45-50 modules (yes, 45-50) I refuse to give up my Xposed.

There aren't actually any good custom 4.4.x roms for G3. They all were prematurely terminated bc of 5.0 release.
Well, most Xposed modifications aren't doable without it. Try to live without it for a week, see what it's like.

SlimKat is pretty much as good as KK is going to get for these phones. Not supported or updated anymore, but the best all-around ROM for the G3's wanting 4.4.x
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe CM 11 is still supported / updated via nightlies (even if fewer and farther between updates now with CM 12 up and running)? Unless things have changed in the past couple of weeks...

It is, but AFAIK there are no official builds for G3, so you'll have to compile it yourself. Plus, the device layer (HAL, etc) is incomplete, so there will be bugs.

Really? How good can the Lollipop ROMs be then? They really are immature.
I really need Xposed, don't like the dock, at all. Use PIE via LMT.

Sorry, I probably should have said I am only considering modified stock custom ROMs. I didn't buy a phone with such a good camera to lose the majority of the function.

I never said that lolipop roms are good, i said that all G3 rom makers forgot about 4.4 and moved on to buggy future. Current 5.0 roms suck, they drain battery twice as fast, they lag, they have inferior memory management, etc...
We have to wait for good stock-based customs. At least until 20L and apktool 2.0 RC4 release. After that, we will have a good base and will be able to decompile and recompile any LG apk, which would allow for some serious mods.
Exposed until L is ironed out. The G3 camera is excellent. Xcam for me.
Don't leave home without it.
Long story short, custom ROM'S never be good as official ESPECIALLY for LG G3, you just need to understand that, for some people it's ok but for some don't. All you need is a root and MAYBE a custom kernel. PEACE.
I found lollipop is faster especially with chrome, yes, I gave up xposed but worth it
Sorry, I have been pretty dumb. So LG went from 4.4.2 to 5.0 with the G3 and there are no customised stock 4.4.4 ROMs? That being the case, I might as well stay on 4.4.2, get to debloating and sort out the annoying boot animation and sound.
Any prefered/recommended method for debloating? Anything else I should look into doing to my stock 4.4.2 ROM?
I just go the LG G3 and I unlocked and rooted it. Now I'm looking for a custom rom. I see there are quite a few 5.0 roms but since there is no official source, all these ROMS are pure Android and I am looking for one which has LG customization (as I really like them). I would like to know what's currently the "best" (and stable rom) for D851?

None of the stock KK Roms have been updated in awhile. I think Devs are waiting on LP to be released. Once you flash it, you'll see that there's not too much to update anyways. No reason to update Roms if there's nothing new to add.

Yep, I've actually ran both. IMO, Skydragon Rom just runs a little smoother and also with the SR Remix Rom, I was having all sorts of issues with being able to edit/delete files using any kind of File Explorer app. You'll notice in the thread for that Rom, that a lot of people were having that issue. With Skydragon Rom, I don't have that issue at all so that's also a main reason that I'm on Skydragon.
They're both pretty comparable though so pretty much just personal preference. I also like the fact that the Dev for Skydragon builds his own kernels too.

Thanks for the info. I will check out the Skydragon ROM.
Installed SkyDragon earlier today and so far everything seems to be working great. Though I wouldn't have mind at least some customization because after the first boot for few minutes I was confused if the rom was actually installed it not.
Scribbled on LG G3.
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.
Sent from my LGLS990 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
For me, Fulmics ROM is better than Cloudy. Its much smoothier and I had gps problems on Cloudy.
Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
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
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.

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.

But the solid kernel version 1.6 is for lollipop or marshmallow? I see in OP that is for lollipop.
I'm running Fulmics ROM 4.1 with this kernel and everything is working better than any other ROM/kernel combo that I have tried. I actually have an S7 pre-ordered and I'm second guessing that now. I had to Google the file name to locate ver 1.6
