There is plenty of information out there if you do a very brief look/search and out of respect to the forum by reading the faq's

the most stable rom is probably official stock rom from Samsung with no modifications.
check this thread for untouched stock roms that can be flashed using odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011901
or deodexed stock roms also flashed using odin or cwm

flash the deodexed roms if you want to apply other modifications easily using cwm
Hello,
I am very new to ICONIA and android as well. i was not knowing the process before installing the custom ROM. with the help of video tutorial i have installed the custom ROM. So i couldn't take backup
however current custom is not solving the purpose for which i have installed the custom ROM
How can i revert it back from custom rom(Virtuos Xoom)to original Acer Iconia default ROM ?
Please help me guys.
Anyone got the original S Apps in stock rom? I flash a custom one and all S apps is missing but I can't find it in the original thread.
Hi,
I have a GT-I9505 and I have some questions:
1. What is safer (without anything going wrong when Flashing); Flash via Odin or flash via Recovery (TWRP)?
2. Stock 4.4.2 firmware from Samsung or 4.4.2 Google Edition?
3. Which Google Edition 4.4.2 ROM is the stablest and the 'best'?
Anyone?
About the first question, what are you flashing? Is it a ROM, a kernel, a mod or what? If it's a ROM then definitely Odin (it's the most safe software out there). If it's a kernel, then you can use either, Odin for .tar format and custom recovery for zip packages. If it's a mod then custom recovery mainly, as they use to come in a zip package, which you won't be able to flash via Odin.
No idea about your second and third query however as I don't own a i9505.

I want to flash Samsung 4.4.2 (stock) or Google Edition 4.4.2 (both are ROMs) but I'm not sure which I should choose, because I saw a lot of 4.4.2 Google Edition ROMs here but I want to know which one is the best and stablest.
Mod Edit
"Best" or "Recommend" ROM/kernel threads are not allowed on XDA.
Please test these things for yourself.
This is the only way you will get an unbiased opinion,and then, you can decide for yourself if it meets YOUR needs.
Don't forget to make a nandroid before you start.

I'm currently running CM 11 nightlies and have a custom recovery on my i9506, but would love to play around with the stock ROM. The thing is it's a pain to use other programs to "factory restore" the device (erasing the custom recovery, having to work out how to root it again, stripping out a bit of bloat/knox).
Do you guys know if anyone's released a flashable .zip of the stock 4.4.x TouchWiz ROM which is pre-rooted, knox removed and ready to tweak?
I would ask in the i9506 forum but I don't want to clutter it with non-ROM threads.
Thanks guys.
