What roms would you guys recomend i use, im currently using Cyangeon Mod 7 but i would like to know if there are any others like that
Thanks Sam
Do you or do you not want blur? If you do want blur, maybe try aura or alien. If you don't, stay with CM.
Try Aura debloat version. Has almost all blur crap removed. Faster than CM7 also except on boot up.
Assimilated via WinBorg 4G
Alien: most stable and best battery life of the roms I've tried
Aura: lean running and most updated of the existing roms, although battery life is slightly worse than Alien. Darkside is really an extension of Aura in my book and it's the rom I currently use.
CM7: I love this rom for all the cool new customizable features, but no fingerprint scanner is a deal breaker. Someone said "some people forget there was life before the fingerprint scanner", well there was life before electricity too. I don't want to give up on one of the most convenient aspect of my phone when there are other alternatives.
I'm using the bionix v1.3.1 with dragon 1.4 kernel, its real fast and smooth on my vibrant

hey everyone I need help with my battery life cause this is just ridic
, so I'm running my phone on alien with faux123 0.2 kernel
and my radio is N_01.77.33P on bell and I text and facebook quite alot but i'm pretty sure my phone should last for more then 5 hours right? lolol So how do I fic this? Should I try at&t radio that's N_01.77.30P?
Redpill... v4. The new redpill coming out will be based on CM.... it will be sweet

I hate threads like this and the title makes me hate it even more.
Atrixn00b, try uninstalling facebook, I've heard it screws your battery pretty hard.
also, install watchdog and check if you have any other rogue apps
Does red pill have a big theme base like cm7 and is it as user friendly?
Depends what you use for phone for. All the de-blur roms I used broke contacts and corporate email, sometimes even sms. Seemed like the majority of them took an exisiting rom, removed the blur .apk applications, and broke a lot of usability for some speed.
I think the whole fastest rom thing is a bit of bs. Almost every rom ive ran has been speedy aside from the official 4.5.91, or froyo with all the ATT apps installed.
Alien4 was the last rom and probably the most stable, also the best battery. Speed is terrific, near CM7. All around the best rom imo. Better corporate mail client than CM7 too w/ search functionality.
CM7 was not stable for me but showed a lot of promise, I had dialer issues and some weird app hangs. Felt like I was constantly needing to reboot to get things working again. Looking forward to future releases though.
Okay yh it does break some functionality but blur did do much for me anyways as i just replaced it all with handcent and stuff like that so it doesnt bother me much about lost functionality, but i tried alien and didnt really like it tbh im using cm7 because its what i have been recomended multiple times
-sigh- okay . Ill try uninstalling it. Also what are the values I should uv my phone to?

I don't believe that for a second! I think auras battery is phenomenal as good as any other rom probably even better, but just like any new rom you flash. you gotta callibrate your battery of course or you may have poor performance.

I don't really have poor battery performance. Right now I am at 1 day and 6 hours with 5hr 34min of screen time and battery of 28%. I just mean that when I was on Alien I had slightly better battery life.
I don't keep track of statistics because of generally excellent battery life. However at the end of my work day I find Alien to be slightly better.
Anyway, with the latest Faux kernels battery is phenomenal, I'm not sure how much the minor differences between roms would matter. They generally all have excellent battery life and stability. Many many thanks to Faux and the Aura/Darkside/Alien rom developers.
I changed my radio from 33p to 30p. Now it could use two days one charge.

Hey guys,
First off, I don't post much on here, but have been doing alot of reading to stay "up-to-date". Yesterday, I just got the Nexus S 4G through Sprint cuz my Epic 4G took a crap and they were backordered so I said sure to the Nexus S.
I spent most the day yesterday looking for ROMs for it and found out about ICS and got all excited for that. So, after looking around I decided on Crossbones 0.1.3 ICS. Overall, I'm liking it but after using it for about a day now, I am noticing the battery life (in comparison to my Epic, which ran the current Legendary ROM with the Samurai Kernel) is HORRIBLE. I don't want to be quick to say it's the phone, ROM, or ICS though. Maybe there's a different way of closing out unused apps that I don't know about? I did just find that you can swipe away unused recent apps. Will that help?
Basically, for a ROM, I look for stability, battery life, speed, and looks. In that order. In GB, I always used Launcher Pro, btw.
So, my question is for those that use or used Crossbones, what are your experiences so far? Also, if it's recommended that I go back to GB for awhile until things get a lil better on ICS (I heard its coming OTA soon), which ROM are people liking? With ICS out now, searching for a good GB ROM has become a lil difficult. So far I read about MUIU (or whatever it is) and CM7, which my gf has on her Dinc2 and her Nook Color. I'm kinda "eh" about CM7. It "just works" imo and I think that's what they are going for. Def not a fan of the looks though. I also miss my power options in my notification pull down too.
PS-
That and I can't get Facebook to add to my account sync. When I go to add it, it does it, goes back to the accounts screen, but its not there. Very strange. Ok, gonna shut up now. this is long enough. lol Thanks in advance.
I've had my Nexus S for a couple of weeks now, I put the stock ICS ROM on the first day and during this time my battery has significantly improved. There are probably three reasons for this, but perhaps not all will apply to you?
1) I've stopped turning everything on, all of the time and constantly tweaking / fiddling / admiring the AMOLED.
2) I've refined how the device uses battery (logged out of Google+).
3) The battery has matured a little.
There's another side effect...
4) I've stopped worrying about the battery so much as I get a day of use from it.
Ice Cream Sandwich and ROMs using it are gonna improve in time. Gingerbread has been out for a year or so and has all this development. So from this there's a lot of potential from ICS...
I'm going to keep my device running the standard ROM for the time being as it's my daily driver, but wanting a device to potentially brick and hack. Thinking about the Galaxy S.

Thanks for the reply. So far in terms of battery saving tricks, I've disabled animations, the screen is set to about 1/4 brightness, only thing that constantly does anything is k9
mail to check my inbox every 15 mins (that I'm aware of lol). So it could be that my battery needs to "mature"? Btw, are there any good themes out yet? I miss my transparent text msg threads and I really miss my power controls on the notification pull down. I'm def not digging the white on the contacts and SMS screens. Lol

I think you're not getting many answers because your issues have already been addressed. A simple search will find many (most) ROMs with notification toggles and Facebook sync. I personally recommend AOKP.
I'd say it's just the rom. I'm on an ICS rom, everything works great and I have significantly better battery life than before.
I'm on AndroidME with Eugene's speedy-3 kernel. I don't have Facebook sync and power toggles in notification though, but I don't really care for those two features anyway.
Well I'm on Gomez now. Things already seem to be better. Absolutely no issues so far. I'll know for sure in a day or so.
Well I uninstall bloat.sys apps I don't use with root uninstaller
As for Bette battery life. Honestly think. What could someone do to the phone to put out better battery life. Almost nothing but SBC kernels and the CPU speed and goveners. That's it.
Most of you guys don't have battery issues you just play with your phone all day instead of doing your work.

A: that was fairly rude. I'm legitimately asking for help and advice. I didn't make the thread to be judged or ridiculed on my phone usage. I don't judge others on how they use they're phone, so why should I be?
B: I'm comparing this all with my epic. I don't over clock or mess with the CPU settings cuz that's beyond my knowledge atm. Like I said, battery seems MUCH better now with this rom . Now my only gripe is volume. Way quieter on this phone which seems to be a known issue. Trying out volume+ soon. Also, at the end of my day, I'll post my battery stats and see what you guys think. But like I said, I think its OK now.
Im on bigxie's rom and icup kernel im getting great battery life with this but thats just me.i dont know whats great for you.try this rom its somewhat minimalist or pure stock with just statusbar widgets and other features.no 'omg' tweaks that cause more harm than good.and it has trebuchet which is perfectly put into the mix.im satisfied with this .been with this rom since build 1 and ive been happy with its consistency.no bugs encountered

Thanks for the opinion. I'll keep that one in mind if this doesn't work out. Sounds a lot like Gomez. Gomez has basically just what you listed. I'd def take stability over extra crap. Lol
Sry for the double post,but to report back, totally forgot to post my battery stats, but they were definitely better. By far. Still not much luck on the sound tho. Got an app the boosts my media volume but my ringer wasn't affected, which sucks. Anything on this that I haven't possibly found?
I'm going back to CM7. 7.2 is out and honesty its just more optimized for this device. CM optimizes their ROMs to very fast high standards and do stuff a lot of you newbies can't even think of. (Yes, these will be implemented in BESTROM.)
So I'm going back. To smoothness.

You really shouldn't be so rude and demean other members of this forum like that. Frankly, no one cares if you're going back to CM7 or not. But thank you for your belittling feedback.
To the original poster, I'm running Pete Alfonso's nightlies along with Mathkid's Matrix CFS kernel. With a bit of overclock and tweaking of the kernel settings, I get great smoothness, stability, and decent battery life. To me, any battery life that gets me from "up in the morning" to "home at night" is fine, because I have my charger at my desk. But typically, I can survive a full 24 hours on one charge.
Who knows, though. Maybe I'm just too much of a newbie to realize the full potential of what my device can do and therefore it's my fault that the battery life is as good as it is.
Hey! I've just recently switched to my Galaxy Nexus, but was a Crespo owner since it came out. Been reading your post but I would agree that you should try out the AOKP rom along with a custom undervolted kernel for longer battery life.
I haven't really tinkered with my Nexus S in awhile (I gave it to my gf when I got the Galaxy Nexus) but the last thing I remembered was either installing aokp or cm9. In due time the custom ics roms will improve and the power widgets in the notification bar will be brought back, but they usually want to focus on stability then add new features little by little. Hope you are having fun your Crespo!

So far I'm still rocking gomez's. Really loving the battery life. Only issue I've had is 3g doesn't always come back after using wifi. Not a big deal tho I guess. Really stable too. I was thinking of using mathkidskernel but don't wanna possibly screw up what I got now. I'm backed up so maybe one of these days. Heard alotof good things about mathkids kernel. Heard good things about aopk too, so that's my other go to. Lol

sorry if that was rude but you have to take in count that
I myself is using modified CM7.1RC0AOSP2.3.7GB as base. But far as CM9AOSP4.0.3ICS goes its still not ready for folks like me for DD yet.
As I described below how extensively its optimized and most of it is outside the scope of current XDA.
What you have to understand is performance is not measured via synthetic benchmarks (ex: Quadrant). The biggest issue with people is that they don't know enough to know that they don't know, so they compare it with silly numbers (ex: score) they can't comprehend what they see, much less put numbers behind real life activities that's not applicable in controlled environment.
OS development which eliminates most of it but on software level custom base rom (ex: CyanogenMod) is highly optimized and tweaked to run on optimal performance. Mostly, but not all. But does it mean it can't be tweaked any further? (Rhetorical) No. How do I know? We (scope outside of XDA) tweaked it to the next level. How you ask?
1) Optimized ext4fs: reduced r/w rate (healthy NAND lifespan), improved journaling (corrupted data writeback integrity) = Which improves the IOPs and performance access rate.
2) HC3.x fugu binaries, patched sqlite libraries, mSD read ahead buffer fix.
3) Modified VM: OOM (Out Of Memory), LMK (Low Memory Killer), VM heap (Virtual Machine), DRA (Dirty Ratio), DBR (Dirty Background Ratio), DWC (Dirty Writeback Centisecs), DEC (Dirty Expired Centisecs), SWP (Swap), VCP (VFS Cache Pressure).
4) Increased minfree value: Background, Foreground, Empty, Hidden, Visible, Secondary, Content.
5) Optimized cache: File and Drop cache, Forced cache (resident loop).
6) Custom kernel: OC/UC, UV/SVS/VDD, BFS/CFS, RSU/NP/VR/SP supported.
7) Custom ROM: Optimized Rom script and props (ex: CyanogenMod).
this as its tweaked to THE next level. I'll stick with AOSP2.3.7GB until ICS4.X is more stable and we understand more as most memory grouping and adjustments might be changed.
I bet most of you only do 2 of those thing (6&7)
i suggest you try androiduser aosp rom with icup kernel. you dont have to do anything else and with normal usage you'll get 24+ hours
For the Atrix, which ROMS have you enjoyed using most?
I didn't see a thread (read:didn't ctrl-f "favorite ROM), and since there have been a good three or four updates to the big ROMS here, I wanted to know what everybody is trying out, what they feel the pros and cons are for each ROMS, what everybody's personal preference is, general battery life, etc.
I've tweaked around with CM7, DarkSide, and am currently running Neutrino ROM V2.0 EE. I'm addicted to trying out different ROMS on this phone.
Cheers!

wetdream so far has been the best battery life. Neutrino seems to be great performance however after spending several months OC'ed and going back to stock kernel, I can safely say most of the Android world doesn't currently benefit in any noticeable way from anything faster than 1.0GHz. Simply faster benchmarks is all.

If you try this you will see. I have tried them all, and this one is by far and away the best right now.
I also am interested in this question. If you can briefly say why you prefer a specific ROM that info would be greatly appreciated
I've used cm7-ics-mod2 for quite a while, but switched yesterday to neutrino 2.0, loving it so far. MIUI is pretty good but the sound bug keeps me from making it my everyday ROM.
CM9
I am using the CM9 ICS Rom. It is still in alpha, because it has some bugs and the camera is not functional. Since I rarely use my camera I have been using it for a week and love it.
Currently using Neutrino 1.4sEE and getting about 2days of battery life with around 3.5hrs of screen. Overall, it's pretty clean and really smooth especially with adwex
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
In my personal opinion, Neutrino 1.4 is by far the smoothest as well as the best ROM for battery life and performance that I have ever used.
Neutrino 2.0 is a bit buggy right now but once all the bugs are gone it will go face to face with CM9 (depending on your taste) . It is a very high calibre ROM and I hope that a CM9 version will also be available.

I've been around
I started with cm7 weekly #1-4 and #4 was great. It was my daily.
Then i tried Aura with is the stock rom with huge modifications (if you want webtop). This was okay for me, i'm just not a fan of it.
Right now, i've been using the alpha for MiUi. It is fantastic when it comes to battery life! Amazing! I'm actually shocked at how reliable this alpha rom is. I'm stuck here.
I hear nothing but great things for neutrino rom. I'll try it soon enough.
I had tried CM9 build #3 or something, and it was a bit buggy for me.
Used Aura for a month, then switched to cm7, went to neutrino(based on cm7), back to cm7. Now I am back to neutrino (about month). Neutrino is the best!!!!. No plans to leave it. Hope it will be cm9.

Neutrino is pretty bee's knees, but I have been having intermittent wifi issues (or maybe it is my router). Additionally I have had some strange GPS issues, and it has gotten to the point where I just fix permissions and reflash the GPS Mod he has posted there. I'm not sure if it is one of his tweaks specifically or just chance, but I tested the 4G with his ROM and my download speeds doubled. ICS was neat but since I use my phone for GPS I got tired of maps blanking out. And the lack of hardware acceleration is a total bummer at the moment. Darkside is super cool, but the theme bugs me a little. I'm not clear what the purpose is for Wet Dream so what are the major differences between it and Darkside?

there´s any safe rom that i can use with out brickin my phone? i want something like a room with a mirroring with out using webtop/lapdoc? just via HDMI?
Darkside has webdock, mirroring, and hdmi support. You won't brick your phone if you follow the forum post guides directions to the letter. Make sure you root your phone first, then unlock the bootloader, then flash a recovery on it. Most people seem to prefer clockwork recovery (assume this when you see CWM). Darkside likes RomRacer, which I understand is a special CWM variant with different features, most importantly EXT4 file system support. I think. I may have RomRacer mixed up with something else, I haven't flashed a recovery since Darkside.

Ive tried firekat, awsome. I was on skyfall for about 2 weeks,awsome and now I'm using dynamic kat, again, awsome. There are plenty of options here and that's great, who doesn't love choice. I also am not a big fan of aosp, but i tried it a few times on the note 3. Anyway, go to all the threads and read the description of each to see what you need more as I'm in the same boat and don't have much time but all these roms are great, vision x and of course darthstarker, all of them, i will go back to firekat in about 2 weeks because i can't keep just one rom for long, i have a problem, and I'm proud of it. Flashaholic, who needs an intervention. Enjoy the world of flashing, embrace it, love it.
Firekat for me
But Test them all see what works best for you

I'm still thinking I will go with CM 12 as soon as I get it running, having a few issues still. But I got Lollipop on my shield tablet and I think a good Android 5.0 AOSP ROM will be where I go. It's just TOO perfect to not use pure.

+Jovys Darth gives great battery life and reliability
+vision x- just solid. Great battery
+Dynamic - my personal favorite - nice out of the box features (dk control) and fast. Decent enough battery
+firekat - solid all around... Just not my flavor for some reason...
Then again none of them are making me go crazy like LiquidSmooth, Temasek or Effortless for Note 3...
Just my two cents.
I'm running Firekat on mine.It runs very well.
To be quite honest, I am it really interested in testing others. I need my phone to be reliable and ready for work every morning. That being said, I am sure the other available ROM are great, I just don't have time to play around.

For some reason I have chosen to stay with stock. But end up freezing a bunch of apps. I tried for very few days firekat and darthvador roms. And I couldn't figure out things like greenify and xposed. Wish I had more knowledge on those apps to fully understand and use better my note 4 with those apps.
Are there any AOSP roms out yet?
Soon my friend. Soon.
Used Dynamic Kat since it came out and just recently flashed VisionX. They are both really good and fast but I just wanna try everything I have nandroid both of them so I can switch back and forth.
Honestly all the roms are almost the same at this level, with dynamic being "most featured" base, and thats saying a lot. Just matter of finding a great dev, most battery, and which thread you enjoy the most lol.
If yall should check out xnote as well, run pretty sweet due to the firmware being newer
I enjoy all the devs thread as well as their roms

I love Touchwiz and Firekat Rom makes Touchwiz uber smooth + amazing battery life.
I wish stock people would try it before yelling Touchwiz sucks, Touchwiz lags.
Running Firekatv4 on the wife's note 4 very nice performance amazing battery life with same recommended edits as Dev settings..... Haven't had a chance to try any other because ...... Can't hog wife's phone forever you know how that goes lol
Thanks so much
You guys are awesome and thank you for all the input. Dynamic sounds like my cup of tea so far so I will start there.
Thanks again!
Hey guys! I'm not new to the board, but this is my first official post. So I would like to give a quick Shout to XDA for creating this android portal to connect us all together. XDA has helped my friends an I for years now and I am very grateful, Thanks XDA and members!!
Now with the "welcome world" out of the way.......
I have had my OPO for a couple years now. I must admit I freaking love this phone. It's been fast and reliable since the first boot. It fits my life-style perfectly. I have been fortunate to have not been plagued with any of the common OPO issues. No yellow screen, battery issues, software glitches, etc.
With that being said, I have the bar set pretty high right now. However, It is not in my nature to leave cool tech equipment in it's original condition. I am ready to make a move on my OPO.
I rolled though the TOP ROMS thread and nothing really stuck out or grabbed my attention. I'm seeking a path to success here and was looking for some recommendations from experienced users that have had and experimented with multiple roms and use the OPO for more than pictures and facebook. I run 2 businesses and this phone is a staple in my life.
If I could only change one thing from stock, it would definitely be the DPI. I find 400 to be the best for my use, with font still readable but lots more screen space.
In terms of roms, I would recommend Resurrection Remix. Very reliable with pretty much every feature you could want but without the performance hit that others have.
For a business user though, you would need a solid backup and recovery method for when your modding eventually ends up with a bootloop. I have heard that flashfire is pretty good but, as my phone is too full to make a backup, I have not used it myself.
Sultans rom is unique because instead of adding features (its same as stock rom) he's actually gone deeper and improved the camera, battery gauge and other things. Read everything on his post that he's made better. His rom is at 2ghz instead of 2.5ghz YET it performs better than stock ever did.

I would suggest you try out CandySix ROM (AOSP + Sultan's kernel), it's the best ROM I've tried so far. Full set of features, stable and great battery life. No idea what happens with CM ROMs including Sultan's but I am plagued with core apps and Android OS wakelocks that destroy battery.
If you want a simple AOSP ROM without a ton of features but rock stable I'd suggest Omni.

I run my resolution at 440 with small text. I've played around with that quite a bit, I've been pleased with the current for a while now. You're 100% correct about the backup and recovery. That is going to be my first step. I'll check out flashfire and see what that's about.

This is something that definitely interest me. It follows my natural logic. I'll be checking this out for sure.

My plan here is to give each selected ROM 10 days of run time and track important features. At the end I'll probably write a review with my feedback. I'll add these two, to the list.
