1. Is it better to stick with stock MM, or are there other ROMs better in performance and battery life compared to stock?
2. Is it necessary for me to go back to stock LP if I want to flash a custom ROM?
3. What's the best rom for the model right now? Seeing that it doesn't have a lot of ROMs available.
Thanks in advance!!

Any solution to improve game performance?
Yes you can try to install the Pure Performance and Pure Graphic HD mods, if you have a stock based rom you should use the stock versions, if it is a custom rom opt for the cm versions, also make sure you have installed twrp in order to be able to flash the mods, or you can just flash your whole phone and improve all the performance and battery life if you want to do that try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54717666&postcount=8
Hello, so thinking having a custom ROM again on my HTC one m8. I've used to used then on KitKat days but when I went to stock I feel my experience was more stable then custom ROM and faster. It still the same on Sense7 ARHD compared to stock? I Read that ARHD has more features like GPU CPU memory optimizations but are these ROM faster then stock? Just asking from any one who experienced this.
Experiences with performance and stability are always going to vary greatly from one person to another based on individual usage patterns, settings, etc. Many folks here probably won't even agree that on KK the performance on stock ROM was "better". Not to say you are "wrong" for your specific case. But just to make the point, that individual experiences will always vary widely.
So its probably best you just flash the ROM, and find out for yourself. You would have already determined the answer for yourself by now; rather than waiting for others to tell you opinions that might not even apply to you. Just be sure to make a nandroid of your stock ROM, and you can easily revert if you don't like the ROM you've flashed.
Also, be aware that if you are currently still running KK, you will need to update your firmware to run Lollipop ARHD.
Thanks, forgot to mention that I'm running newest loli stock.
I am coming from the Note 2 and on that phone I used RWilcos Mostly Stock ROM which is basically just the stock ROM with small tweaks, root, bloatware removed etc.
It did not have any bugs that effected the functionality which I've seen with other ROMs (CM etc).
Does anyone have a recommendation for a 100% functional stable ROM almost that won't remove all the great Note features but still have the added features and performance, battery life , root etc of the custom ROMs?
Thanks for any help.

First of all, is the phone new and already updated to stock 5.1.1?
If so you have a locked bootloader (but still have options) .
If you have 5.0.1 or older version your in luck.

CM and ports require more attention whether it be developer, user or both.
Stock-like TW narrows it down for you. IMO, the two most active and capable developers in TW for Sprint Note 4 are tx_dbs_tx and freeza. They both have released very stock and also modified ROMs. Then there's OBAR that got a lot testing and users as well to make sure the bugs were squashed; still has support and also user community support.
If you don't want to get into kernel tweaking but want something with default and optimization out of the box- better than stock, consider freeza's Beastmode kernel or the newer Rage kernel that is integrated in Note 4our ROM (Don't be put off by the beta; it's stable but more customization is expected). Otherwise, take your pick and run the included kernel or choose another custom Android 5.1.1 kernel like AEL or Emotion for Sprint Note 4.
Personally, I prefer freeza's kernel. I've posted some battery stats in freeza's Beastmode kernel and Note 4our ROM threads.
I couldn't narrow it any further than this. You'd have to decide yourself or try as many as you like to make a definitive decision. Lots of choices and opinions vary; that's a good thing.

Which one of freeza's kernels gives better battery? Have you compared them to AEL? I'm using AEL 6.2,and while it has decent battery, it lags a bit.

IMO, they're equal on battery.
Rage may be slightly better on multitasking but there's extra scripts in play with the integrated ROM.
No lag but I've ran freeza kernels since Beastmode because they're close to stock with no setup to tweak.
Prior to that, I preferred stock kernel but thanks to Samsung, can't run it with root anymore. No recent compare to AEL or Emotion.

Hi all
I am looking for a stock LITE ROM with a good battery life (lollipop)
I read some threads but dunno what ROM chose
Anyone who tried most of it could tell me wich is the best in battery life terms and stable like stock?
regards
I have a D855 v30n - and I have a few questions.
1. Is this device worth rooting?
2. If so what is the best way of rooting this device?
2. Is it worth flashing a custom rom onto this device?
3. If so, which custom rom works the best on this device?
Any help is appreciated - Thanks in advance.
In my opinion it is worth rooting assuming you will install a custom rom so this answers two questions.
Now as for the rom it is a matter of taste but i find fulmics rom 6.7 to be working perfect with zero bugs. It improves the overall speed and user interface also addessing some overheating issues.
The other choices are cm/ aosp based roms that alters ur phone completelly, losing some functionality and gain some other.
After a cycle of trying many roms stock based or aosp i prefer stock based but u have to make ur own opinion on that.
As for the method i wont answer as i dont remember the steps, its not hard but if you are not familiar with the concept of rooting then think carefully before you proceed and do alot of research.

Thanks for responding, I have already previously rooted an LG G3 D855 but it was running on an older firmware and was stuck on android lollipop. I was running cloudy g3 on that one and it worked fine for a few months and then out of nowhere the device was completely bricked (this is why I'm asking if it's worth flashing a cutom ROM again)
