I have a new 32gb Nexus 7 to arrive at my house in an hour or two What ROM should I install? I am a set it and forget it user so I will be using this ROM for the foreseeable future. I mostly want to maximize the performance while keeping a stock feel.
Thanks in advance.

There's no best ROM. Go find something that works for you and stop being lazy.

Solid aosp rom it's frequently updated and has great support if anything were to go wrong.
you really should try as many different roms as you can. there isnt a "best" rom. every user has different needs and every device will prefer some roms over other. so whats best for someone, might be worst for someone else. thats said, i prefer the rasbean jelly rom

Hey everyone just throwing this out there. I am a regular on the galaxy note forum but just got a n7. What is the best and quickest rom and kernel combo. At the moment I am running a friends private liquid build and motley kernel. I need more speed out of it. Any suggestions?
from the padded cell tucked away in the dark
what exactly do you need "more speed" for?
Just want to get the best out of such a powerful device

The best ROM and kernel doesn't exist, it varies for different people.

I for a rom, I personally prefer Paranoid Android, you can get Tablet UI.

Stock does the best for me.
Running stock, deodexed, with root. And the tabletUI mod. perfect.
Every rom I've tried was not near as smooth in scrolling, or as quick to open items.
Thanx for the answer guys. I have been around long enough to know there is no such thing as the best and probably should have put in peoples opinion. My bad but all ideas are welcomed coz that's how we learn

I'm using the EOS CM10 build and Trinity Seven kernel. I've tried a ****load of different combos and that combo both feels best, benched best and appears the most stable (with pretty much the only bug being with google play music).
What's the best ROM currently with tablet UI? I know it's a matter of opinion, but I still want to hear it.
Google Wallet should also work as well.

I'm curious about this as well. Been looking at Paranoid Android mainly.
Paranoid is the best way to go.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I am very happy about Paranoid
Definitely paranoid because some apps look really wonky with tablet ui at 720px, but with PA you can customize the layout of each individual app which is awesome.

Paranoid is amazing though I wish i could use other ROMs with paranoid features
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Paranoid working fine for me. Like the per-app customization.
Stock works fine too.
IMUI has a really different and beautiful UI then all other ROM
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
MIUI is terrible for the Nexus 7. I love it on my S2 but too many phone features are still present in the Nexus 7 MIUI build. It feels half-done.
Paranoid Android is very slow but the UI customization is good.
I'm tempted to go back to stock though because it has been the smoothest and best battery performance rom for me.
PA 2.1 is good for me
Team Bamf
I'm using team bamf paradigm v2.2. Seems to work really well get really nice battery life out of it.
TeamEOS
The TeamEOS ROM works quite good for me.. I would recommend it to everyone! :laugh:

The AOKP nightly ROM is pretty awesome.
Just ordered my Nexus 7 today, this have been sort of helpful...lol.
EOS has a dead simple Tablet UI option. Just check and forget. It uses the same DPI as stock so you dont have any comparability issues like other methods. I haven't had a single problem running in tablet mode regarding apps and games. PA gets good rep too but EOS simply just works so good I can't come off of it.
Battery is also simply amazing. I unplug at 8 when I go to work and will still be at 100% when I get home if I dont use it. I unplugged the N7 like 20 minutes ago and on XDA and still at 100%. Absolutely no complaints.

There isn't a best ROM for anything. But my personal favorite is Paranoid Android. It gives you the option of tablet mode and lets you change DPI on the fly.

Stock JB is the best way to go for now.
I tried every rom out there and nothing that offers more then stock JB and is stable w/o bugs at the moment

Paranoid has never given me any bugs and runs super stable and smooth for me. Nothing against stock JB, but Paranoid blows it out of the water with options and it runs just as stable on my N7.

I use Codename Android and it is the most customizable. I tried Paranoid Android and I hated it. I couldn't customize anything and I hate tablet UI.
If you like Paranoid Android but want the large amount of customization that Codename Android offers, you could also try this ROM, which is a combination of Paranoid and Codename. It looks awesome and I'm planning on flashing this soon.

There isn't a best rom. its all personal preference. Take some time and read the rom threads up and you will be the only one that knows what you consider to be the "best" for yourself.
Hey All,
I'm looking for a rom and having trouble figuring out which one will best suit my needs. Typically, I would just download a bunch of roms and try them out, but I'm stuck in China with a low data ceiling on a very slow connection for the foreseeable future. I really need to be like 80% sure before I download.
I've been running CleanRom since the summer, and that has been a great experience, but CleanRom is no longer being developed, so I'm no longer up to date.
I want something with integrated tablet mode, and I would like something with a volume slider in the notification tray. Wifi toggle switch would also be ideal (I prefer not to use apps for these features). Aside from those features, I just need the most stable rom possible. Additional customization isn't necessary. In fact, pure stock outside of the features I listed would be great. And I'm obviously not looking for nightly builds. I want something to throw on here and leave on until the next Android update.
Does anyone know a rom that meets this criteria? If you have suggestions, I would love to hear them, and then I'll go read some threads.
I really appreciate the help.

Check CM10 with Tablet UI, it should fit the needs you are looking for.
I have been using it since last 4 days and its been stable.No issues yet.

Check Glazed Jellybean here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796668
I've been running this rom since 1.1.2 and have been very pleased with it. My current setup is Glazed JB 2.0 with the included Franco kernel, and Nova Launcher Prime for a launcher. I'm also using Pimp My Rom 2.0 for additional tweaks, but from the sounds of it you may not even want that.
Good luck in your search.

You want a solid rom? Team EOS is going to be your best bet. Very minimal isnt loaded with a bunch of crap you wont use. Has its own toggles however are kind of an eyesore IMO. You could just use an app to do the same thing i recommend "Extended Controls" Its a dollar.. but well worth it. LOL reread your OP oops.. :S
Also if you have the pull down.. and swipe in the middle to either the right or the left.. it will swap the Date and clock to a volume slider on the left and a brightness slider on the right .
The only problem I've had with this rom is the oft mentioned error about invalid glazed 2.0 init.. and it's more of a minor nuisance than anything. Functionality does not seem to have a problem, and I'm sure the message has something to do with Glazed being based on a CM nightly.. a bad integer table entry perhaps. Either way, my overall experience has been great with this setup.. buttery fast, and buttery smooth.

Thanks for getting back to me on that. I've got a list of three I'm investigating. Trying out this CM10 kang first.
I've had very good luck with cm10. I've tried a few others but keep coming back to cyanogenmod. It's stable and has the features I want. On my Tablet I have many of them turned off, but it's nice for my phone. I

I currently am running liquidsmooth 3.2. I just found out that the thread for that ROM has been closed as per OP's request. I would like to switch to a different ROM but based on current choices, I don't know which one would be the best for a daily driver in terms of stability and performance. You advice would greatly appreciated.
Carbon rom is made by many off the devs from Liquid
Bionic Rom is pretty stable , basically stock with bionic patches for krait.
Paranoidandroid ROM is the way to go!

Xylon ROM is one of the most stable roms out there. I would say any of the big name roms in the Original development section are pretty stable. Codefire, Xenon, anything else that isn't in beta.
I love Rasbeanjelly and MMuzzy myself.

Basically any rom is good enough for a daily driver on this phone, I know its a Douchy answer but with a nexus its basically your opinion its not like we are using Roms on the next update with major bugs to be worked on lol

If you want something close to stock with some nice additions that add to the ROM I highly recommend MMuzzy. It's stock with the addition of clear all button for recently opened apps, T9 dialer, customizable quick settings, enhanced power menu and the addition to determine between H and H+ speeds. Other than that it is stock. But a good start for a first time ROM.
