Why don't you just stay with the stock ROM?

Think the op was asking closest to stock android not stock sgs2
Cm7 looks like stock but has loads of extra goodness. Not for beginners and its still a wip but still.. well its ace the devs are doing magic stuff

Yeah I tried cm on my desire hd it was quite good but always went back to sense as I liked it, but in my opinion touchwiz is a bit more stock androidy feel to it rather than sense , so wanted to go all out and just try out stock android , so the cm rom, is it available yet? Obviously not stable I take it??
Oh I would also like to ask if someone can tell me is what's the difference between cm stable and nightly builds??
I think I can assume what stable means but never knew what a nightly build was??

Its not 'stable' yet for sgs2 in fact the first nightly only came out today.
Stable releases are known quantities I.e set milestones whereas nightly builds have commits added as they're submitted... nature of the beast some will fix stuff some might cause issues. Pot luck.
Stick with stable builds (there isn't one for sgs2 yet) if you want something rock solid without the occasional gremlin or two.
I quite like touchwiz but always run launcherpro so rarely bump into tw!

I've been loving AOKP, and the boot animation alone makes it worth it!

Wait for classic super magic it should be the best rom.

Not another one.....
Again, there is no "best rom". Everyone has their own opinion, and everyone has different wants/needs in a rom. Since you are rooted, just try out a few. That's the benefit of flashing roms, just make a backup, and if you dont like a new rom, flash another or reload your backup.

I can't get AOKP to run more than a minute (literally) without a random reboot and I have flashed my share of ROMs. Plus last I checked AOKP doesn't have everything working.
Your best bet for stable fully functional ROM is MikG3.0.

I'm liking AOKP but it still has some minor issues (being ICS, it's no surprise). I expect it to be my daily once everything is ironed out.
I'm using a tweaked CM7 for daily use, but I also really like the Mik roms.

I'm using the Ligux port from pspunderground. I'm not really into AOSP that much, but this is a great ROM. Very smooth.

No matter what I try cm7 nightly's always pulls me back. Especially since the officials started up again. I tried Nitrous 1.3.1 which was pretty solid. Radiance 6.1 runs great on my wife's phone.

On my evo i started compiling cm7.2 once a week or so then just wipe caches and flash the new one over the old i usually only compile when something new has been added that catches my eye or when several new things i dont really care about have been added the rest of the time im compiling cm9 for either the evo or my kindle fire and fixing to start compiling it for my et4g soon gotta figure out the ins and outs of this phone cuz its boot img is way different than my evo or fire

Nice post evil, care to share?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

The cm9 on the evo isnt as smooth as the aokp yet it works pretty well on my fire but then again it only has wifi no cam no phone etc so alot of stuff can be left out for it , the evo however my last compile had battery issues and random forcecloses that were annoying ad hell but ive been having to mod the current ics kernel to play nice im hoping to find a devkit for a device or devices from htc with similar specs i can steal some drivers from to get the hardware working better right now im running 7.2 and only testing 9 for a day or so to see where i have it but atleast it boots up and most things will function once or twice before force close city kicks in

I am tired of flashing back to stock to get prl updates. Any favorite Sense roms? I am running the october 2011 stable release of cm7 and have been since late october without any real issue however my prl is getting really stale so I need to do something in the next week or two.
Edit- I should mention that I am looking for a fully functional daily driver sense rom. I looked through this list http://evo4g.roms-db.com/ and was hoping to narrow it down to one or two that others have tried/liked.
I require 4g radio, gps, 3g data, wifi and wireless hotspot (like cm7)

The classic by tommytomatoe or mikg v3.0 or 3.1

After running CM7 (per my previous post), i tried about 5 or 6 roms and eventually settled on mikg 3.1. Thanks for your help. Updated my hboot, radios, and prl easily and things are working really smoothly now. Reception issues are completely solved and 4g is working tons better. Thanks!

You should try decks ginderbread I've been running it for a few days and I get about 9 hours of battery or so.... and its pretty fast

I've been usin cm7.2 as my daily, but I've been playing around with the ICS roms as well. So far AOKP has been my choice. Can't wait for CM9 though!

Even though its all about personal preferences, I was using Rainy Day, which was stable, smooth, and fast...battery life was ok. I'm currently running The Express latest build by OD and his team...awesome rom...very fast, great battery life even with heavy use!, stable, with a ton of space!

The express is a godly ROM, I switch roms a lot and and always find something, with express nothing is ever wrong, constantly updated with perks, and has themed and stock, the devs really know what thier doing, sense based but amazing, I love it so much, that's rare for me to say for a rom

I agree exspress is the way go for daily sense rom not any bugs but like what's been said its all personal preferences plus its almost in rc mode which is exciting

Best ROM, Swiper's latest ICS Muiu running Mason kernel.
However, no 4g.

I have seen a lot of people raving about swipers ICS MIUI. I downloaded but haven't flashed yet. What makes it so great? I will probably have to give it a try tonight. I just hope its a smooth set up. I hate having to flash gps drivers and stuff like that. But if its that good I guess its worth the setup time.

Deck ICS
Tiamat kernal
Very nice.....

Exactly. Once again, NOBODY can tell you what the best rom for you is. Everyone has their own wants/needs, and not to mention the same rom will not run the same on every single device. Try a few roms, and find one you like, simple as that.

I use the Miks rom and it run flawlessly

I've been running nitrous for awhile now. The dev is extremely good at taking requests and keeping everyone updated on his progress.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I tried nitrous but the battery life blew dogs. I'm in SOS 1.9 ics I love ics are there any other good ics roms out there.

I'm partial to MikG 3.11 (or the latest). Stable, smooth, decent features and stays pretty updated.

Anything MIUI has been awesome for me...So customization & runs fast, everything works besides 4g but I cant get 4g in this area anyways...Plus the themes change up the look of your phone alot!! BTW Why is ICS Muiu running Mason kernel the best? Does GPS camera video ect work?? How do I get video or movies from my phone to work on my TV thru QQ player?

n00b-rom with tiamat 3.3.7 is the best rom around its so smooth and everything works
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

n00b-rom!?!

I am an OG Epic user, and the biggest (only?) complaint I had and have seen with our ICS ports is that the lack of battery life renders the phone unuseable. Is the same the case with the Evo? I see a lot of ICS roms and folks here seem to like it, but I've flashed the Evo's on my account with some roms lately that score unbelievable battery life so I'm hesitant to change.

Well...if you don't want to worry about what's not working, try mikg 3.11

for you guys, whats the best rom for atrix?

Like the others have said, it truly is up to you and that's not being vague, you see people can choose a rom, but then tweak that rom to suit their own preference.
But having said that, the reason why I like using MokeeOS is because of all the roms that I have tried (not many <10), I have found it to be insanely quick to startup and use the camera which is important to me.

There is no best rom, users experience will very.

No such thing as the best rom. But, I'll throw Th3Bill's CodenameAndroid 3.3.x ports as well as his AOKP ports.

What's the best flavoured icecream? (Not being rude, but roms are kinda personal..)
Try them, you'll find one that suits. (Or, like me, you hop around every few days )

Epsilon Project Final V5 + Webtop 2.3.6

I have tried Many of the ROMs available on this site.I like many different things about each ROM.My favorite is to start with ATT 236.141 debloat it,change the kernel,add my stuff. Everything works on it.If your worried about benchmarks it will score as high as others with blur,webtop,and all docks.

stock blur rooted, unlocked, and debloated
after the ICS drivers, who knows? could be any of the roms, but I will probably pick one that still supports webtop.

I think ROM choice depends on the needs of

Distinct feature of atrix is webtop
So if you want to use webtop or any webtop mods like ubuntop gentop etc you will need blur based rom
I would suggest Nottachtrix ROM
then there are CM7 based ROMs where fingerprint scanner works but you will have to sacrifice webtop
Eg. Mrom/ neutrino Rom
I currently run and would suggest you Mrom but again that is my preference you might like something else
Then there are roms like mokee/joyos/miui
Their major plus point is they all look beautiful and miui/mokee have many beautiful themes
So if you want to have a good looking phone go for them
Hope this helps you understand why people suggest you to try different ROMs and choose on your own..some people can live without webtop some cannot so its upto you to choose what exactly you want
Cheers!

After using CM9 and CM10, going back to any gingerbread based rom is painful. If you can live with the shortcomings (lack of drivers) of CM9/10, they are by far better experiences than CM7 or Stock.

Epinter's CM10 works best for me, u should try it

Stock rom VS custom rom?

guys which do you think is better stock rom or custom rom? I think custom roms like cyanogenmod performs better than stock and have much more features!

Stock=4.1 very good.4.2=Networks error,random reboots.

Csto custom RMS are everything great about stock, customized to your own needs and tastes

Frankly, its totally subjective. Some swear by stock, and some by custom roms. Then, others by only specific custom roms. The only real right answer is the one you decide for yourself after experimentation. So, start the journey, and enjoy. Youll know what you prefer in no time! Have fun!

I totally agree with this.
Personally I'm a fan of Cyanogenmod. Just straight Cyanogenmod for me but others swear by CM derivatives like Parandoid Android.
I say try some different roms out and see how they work for you. I did this and found myself going back to Cyanogenmod. Now I actually purchase android devices based on whether or not they can run it.
I like CM10.1 so much that I've learned to build it myself and make my own nightlies

Stock for me

Why do you prefer CM?

Stock 4.2 works perfectly fine for me, + franco kernel.

I'm rooted but otherwise run stock. I like it. The vanilla Android is why I flashed custom Roms on my old Droid Inc 2 (because I HATED the Sense UI). And I get that vanilla style with stock.
