Best

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).

Best Nexus 7 ROM With Tablet UI

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.

So far paranoid android is smooth for me...

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

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:

Nexus 7 ROM

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.

G2 Slim Or Virtuous G-lite

I was just wondering which one is better for speed, battery life and their UI's. I have given up on the Sense roms, too slow and buggy.
Thanks

I know I've seen your name in the forums before, but forget what you're using now. Have you tried either of the EliteMod versions (one CM7, one ICS?) I'm using the latter now and very happy with it for speed, battery and UI (Apex launcher.)

I second this, for ICS either elitemod or Andromadus mimicry. Apex launcher.
Though for gingerbread, I'd say elitemod CM7 or g2slim.
Also for an even faster and lighter launcher there is lightning launcher.

Yeash, I must ask a lot of questions then, lol. I am currently on Gen. Y Vision B5. However I have found it very slow and buggy. I have also tried Andromadus Mimicry. It was the best i'd seen, but I wanted something which had better battery life.
Will have a look at EliteMod Now.

ILWT for me...

MIUI
Better battery life + Good Look = its definitely MIUI
from my experience MIUI has the best battery life.. abt 2 hours of music, txting, wifi, browsing and total of 30min calling, yet i always come home above 30%

I know that I've asked this before but does these ROMs set the phone's CPU to a default speed? Or do you do that yourself by using something like the SetCPU app?
I'm in the process of rooting my phone and will be looking at GB ROMs such as MIUI, ILWT and CM7.

MIUI doesn't have a built in feature to set CPU speeds. But most other CM based roms does have such option built in. Look for something like Performance->CPU in settings. There you can set a CPU governor too

I thought MIUI was discontinued for our devices?

It is confusing because of the several Miui sites. But that is the impression I get, too. I just spent a certain amount of time looking, and failed to come up with anything current.
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app

Yes they discontinued support for the vision after gingerbread. Anything found that is android 4.0 or higher will be ports, not to say they will be good or bad but they won't be specific to our phones

Yes it is... But it is stable and it has every feature needed. I have used MIUI without restarting for more than a week. No glitches though. But sure can use extra stuff like miui_bulletproof_pack, though Im not using it.
Its a stable rom + with super cool look + good performance and good battery life. What else do we need

I've tried both and performance and stability wise I'd go with glite not that slim isn't good

Tried G-Lite, however it had some simple bugs such as the screen timeout not working. .
Back to Mimicry.

G-light hands down its fast stable gives you the option of choosing kernels before flashing (conservative HTC kernel or full featured kernel capable of 1.4ghz Oc) . As for issues their ain't none I've been using g-light since it came to play . The screen issue must of been a bad flash

Best rom for dd?

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.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

+1 for PARANOIDANDROID

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.

Rasbeanjelly is cool for me. But many roms are good dd if you test drive and fine tune!

Anyway to make the scrolling smooth?

I've had my Nexus 10 for 6 months and I love the crispy display and fast over all system, the only thing that intrigues me is the scrolling. I believe all sorts of browsing there's a delay when swiping from a page to another. Especially on the app drawer and Facebook app. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

Hello there!
If you look in to loading a custom kernel such as Ktmanta (which I recommend and use personally) I believe you will find the smooth scrolling you are looking for.

Really? I haven't tried to flash that kernel cuz I saw last time it was for 4.1.2.
Will it work on the latest nightlies of either pacman rom or PA rom? Thanks bro

It will work on anything

Cleanrom for a rock solid experience and fluid system. If you want features you can try aokp by mr robinson, or team eos for a basic rooted rom but still kept pretty slim and smooth.
