What ROMs can anyone suggest loaded with bells and whistles? I'm currently on pure nexus and although its a solid daily driver.... Its bare bones android. Looking for high customization

advantages and disadvantages of XenonHD vXIV jelly bean, liquid smooth jelly bean, and jelly belly rom.
I would like those of you who have experience with all three to layout the major differences and advantages of one to another by your experience? i've used liquid smooth ICS before with alot of success. but have yet to make the jump to jellybean. I run a business from my phone and cant' afford the time to just flash rom after rom, so i would like to rely on your expertise.
I am looking for long battery life, fast and stable. I really like the ability to control your screen brightness, according to custom set ambient light levels that liquid has, do the other roms have this ability?
IMO just jump on to the JB version of liquid smooth since you like it on ICS, just don't look at other ROMs, should be fine.
Will the next nexus have a longer screen?
I want a stable ROM with android,but there is a lot of differend android roms, which should i get?

My suggestion is try as many as you can until you find one YOU like. CM7, CM9 and CM10 ROMs have ones that are more "stable" then others. It depends also on what you are planning on using the ROM for.......I mean what are the activities or tasks that you want to accomplish? Do you want the newest JB ROM for app compatibility while sacrificing battery life or a CM7 ROM which is dated a little bit but fares better in the battery department.
Also there is the issue with Flash not working correctly on JB but works with CM7 and CM9. If you want OTG support than you might want CM10.
My personal favorites are remember this is MY opinion and opinions are like butt-holes lil)
1.) Barebones CM7: a bare ROM without all the bells and whistles which leaves a lot of room for personal customization, excellent battery life
2.) Energy ROM CM9: smooth ROM with typical ICS ROM battery life which = or slightly greater than stock
3.) AlienDroid CM10: built on a excellent ROM and allows user custom options for the UI, battery life is getting better with CM10 ROMs but 8 hours might be an average
Hope this helps I'll stop rambling now

I have had my Note II since launch and I have always had the stock ROM installed. I kind of miss vanilla Android OS from my Nexus so I'm looking into flashing a brand new vanilla stock rom, I have absolutely no time to look into finding the best combination of kernel/rom/radio.etc to get the best out of the note in vanilla.
What combination of ROM/Kernel/Radio..etc did you guys find best to run on the Note II and get its full potential with good stability/battery life? I use my phone heavily for productivity and I don't care much for games.

Use AOSP roms like Cyanogenmod , AOKP, Paranoid Android etc. Use a kernel that will save your battery. Make sure it is compatible with the rom. You can find it in development section

Ya I know, but which ROM out of all these coupled with a decent kernel(stock maybe) gives me the best overall experience? Has anyone tried using the Paranoid droid as their primary daily driver?
I'm sorry to say that they are all great but for different reasons. While I've toyed with AOKP and PA, it's CyanogenMod that fulfills my needs the best. My reasoning is that I am looking for a clean and simple experience in my AOSP roms. While the others may give more options, CyanogenMod make the greatest effort to stay within Google design guidelines for Android. Overall this gives the rom a feeling of being cleaner and less cluttered than the others.
Kernel wise I've found neak, perseus, and Red pill are all great. Currently using neak because the configuration app is (again) simpler than stweaks (which the other two use).

Battery life is still quite good compared to a lot of other phones out there but noticeably worse than the stock rom. I've encountered this on all the kernels and both AOKP and CyanogenMod. Haven't tested pa extensively but I can't see it being any better than the others.

I have the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II (Galaxy Hercules) and I am wondering what you guys think is the best ROM for great battery life, good performance and lots of customization? I am familiar with cyanogenmod, miui, and paranoid android; however, I have not gotten to try any yet- just read about them. It seems like people like paranoid android, but I am very picky about my icons and the look of my interface. I like the new Nexus look and some of the newer cleans icons, and will love a ROM with plenty of customization. Thanks!
Edit: If my phone can run Jelly Bean 4.2.2, then that is preferred but not needed for the ROM
AOKP. Look for it in the dev section. The Milestone update 1 should be suitable for your needs. Also it comes with the Nexus boot animation so that will be nice
CM is having a couple of problems with the recent nightlies that's why AOKP.
Start flashing and you be the judge. Most will say the same.

Just curious which PIE Rom is everyone's favorite? And why?
It looking like there are a several options right now, haven't flashed a ROM since the beginning of the year. Looking for a daily driver, I don't need crazy bells and whistles. Just looking for solid reliable performance, without crappy battery life.
I will be running v4a, Google Pay, Magisk, and CF+llumen.
Thanks!

I don't really use roms on P since you're not really missing anything on the stock OS. Google did good this year.
Using a custom kernel rather than a rom on stock will allow for a snappier experience. Battery life is mainly your problem based on apps
However, if you do want to use a rom, then I recommend c-rom or liquid remix. LOS is always good as well if you prefer it
