Hi all,
Just wondering which people prefer, Stock or CM 12.1? Or something else completely?
I am reviving my device and trying to decide which to use.
Thanks!
#1 Touchwiz detox - best of both worlds
#2 Cm - for speed
#3 Stock - for all the features
this.
If your going to use TouchWiz, IronRom is really good. TWDetox is also good.

Hello everybody,
I actually have Omega 6 with RedPill Kernel on my note but I want something even much cleaner.
So I selected two ROMs : PARANOIDANDROID and HyperNote.
The first is an AOSP Rom; It really changes everything.
The others is a very clean version of stock rom.
What I want is a very clean rom but the most stable as possible. Also I don't know if the multi-window is possible on an AOSP rom, and I want to keep it. It would also be good if I can install the samsung and google apps I want easily.
What do you think is the best for me ?
Sorry for my english, and thanks for your help.
I was wondering if there's anyway I can download the kernel that comes with Cyanogen mod.
I noticed I was getting a smoother experience on CM vs AOKP, which I thought was just the differences between ROMS but after I installed AK kernel on CM, I noticed the butter smoothness disappeared.
So I'm wondering if there's anyway I can download/pull the kernel on CM and install it on AOKP?

This is your best bet, you can dump Kernels from Roms and restore them.
Really easy to use.
If you are having trouble doing this, let me know. I can post step by step instructions.
Thanks! Works great!
Hi there, folks!
Which ROM would you recommend for daily use?
My ROM history is: stock 4.2.2 -> Malladus 4.2.2 -> stock 4.4.2 -> SlimKat -> AOKP - and I must say, I was the most satisfied with Malladus. I don't know, even though custom KK's are better than the stock KK's, they just don't feel right. But nevermind, gonna try a modded stock 4.4.2.
Which ROM are you using for daily use? What launcher'n'stuff are you using, if I may ask?
Many thanks
They all can be good daily OS. As for launchers, I prefer Nemus. To be the most consistent and have been finer 'tuned', or dependable - then choose a steady ROM such as Mahdi that seems to need few tweaks, and is stable. Good luck!

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

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

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
After flashing rom after rom I have not been able to find a stable rom that has good battery life that is also very customizeable. So i have reverted my galaxy s4 to stock and want to know what I9505 rom is the most stable one that also have good battery life that i can customize? also how to flash it?
Favorite theme to use with any TW KK rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657344

Have fun @Caliboy93
Thank you lordodin912! I just came from an LG G2 (broken screen) and wanted to get the lay of the land as well. I think for now I'll stick with stock rooted; that's what I did on my G2, but I will keep that rom in mind in case I feel like branching out.
I'm a little nervous about CM or other AOSP roms. I love the idea of them but there's always something broken. As you suggested it may be a better idea to stick with TW roms for now.

At least have a custom recovery (backup of clean install) then debloat (speed/battery life) and deodex (if you want to theme). And if all goes well make another backup. Then start using xposed.
The issues with CM/AOSP are mostly bluetooth related atm, camera was improved recently. CrDroid with synergy kernel or VRToxin are good ones to try. You can always look into dual booting, no need to be nervous....just make sure to back up your IMEI/EFS and have a copy of the stock firmware tar before starting anything.
Golden EYE i9505 rom also works for t-mobile. Been using it since last june and its pretty stable and decently fast. -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2427629
use philz cwm touch recovery and pick Ael kernel during options.
