How is performance from stock to custom ROM? Like is there any Roms that are way faster than stock odexed without any kind of over clocking?

As I'm sure many people will tell you, it mainly depends on what you want. Is customizability very important? If so, I recommend Xylon or AOKP or even Paranoid Android.
If you want great performance look at Raspbeanjelly or CodefireX or PrimeRunner or Xylon.
Do you want a stock-ish look, but still optimized?
Try Stock with Bionic or PrimeRunner.
And now, for kernels.
For performance: Trinity or Franco.
For battery: _Motley or Franco or Harsh.
For amazing tune-ability: Try Faux123
To summarize, these are just my favorites... Your mileage may vary. Also, please try out the ROMs on these forums: they are all fantastic and unique in their own way.
To each their own,
Connor Baker

Yes, there is no best rom, but everybody can have an opinion, right?

Well, and what else
Running stock at the moment, had no problems' very snappy.
I like Paranoid Android but almost all are very similar and the devs have done a great job on all the ROMs.

Used codename android and then it became slightly buggy. Running XenonHD and it's smooth and stable. Loving it right now.
Will have to see when 4.2 ROMs get uploaded but so far Xenon finally removed the blue grids around home screens while moving. Left over from tablet UI and I just hate it and CNA still has it.. Don't want to use alternative launchers either.

I feel they are all about the same. PA really is in a league of it's own if you want to utilize their features.
I jump around every few months/weeks. Basically waiting for 4.2 to drop at this point.
AOKP when I feel like tweaks
For performance, eos or rasbean ever since I've learnt to tweaks and theme things myself, I have been not needing the tweaks of ROMs like AOKP
Resbean for now, zip aligned, odexed, tweaked up and super fast

I wanna try RasBean, any bugs so far?
You should change the question as "best rom/kernel combination" since rom's pretty much depend on the kernels to perform well.. Franco R25 is the best so far for my taste and Glazed rom is the pair..

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.

That is the most popular kernel right now?
Not only popular, but also bug free and stable along with good battery life ^
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Most popular seems to be faux, Franco, and bricked. Also Trinity is getting a lot of attention too.

I'm getting much better battery life than stock with Franco's kernel. I haven't tried any other kernel yet and I don't want to get into changing voltages and clock speeds etc. Franco kernel is flash and forget. I'm using the CodefireX SR1 rom.
Franco !!

The only real flash and forget kernel is IntersectRaven's. Bare bones and full of awesome. Faster than stock kernel, and better battery life. Also stable as a rock. My last up time was 100+ hours.

Go to Original Dev forum and look for kernel thread on the first page, that's your answer.
You have to try them to decide for yourself.

That doesn't mean it's most popular. Just means someone replied. Instead, look for number of posts and views on each kernel thread. It's Franco

I'm looking for a ROM that is mostly stock + optimizations. I'm not interested in the other apps and tools that other ROM's install. Can anyone recommend one for me?
Thanks.
RasbeanJelly has all the criteria you're looking for.
This is like the third "best ROM" thread I see today. Do you people even bother reading before posting?

I can't speak for or against Rasbeanjelly but what I can say is that it's not definitely the best ROM since that's a completely subjective question (which is why the quoted post is worded as saying it fits criteria, not that it's the best).
@op Threads like this are pointless because you can receive multiple different replies and the only way to decide for yourself would be to try them all out anyway so the entire thread would be redundant. Not only this, but it's offensive to devs to say that someone else's ROM is better than theirs.
EDIT: Well it seems my point about different replies has been proven by the two above posts.
Rasbean both variations vanilla or normal, or SaberMod currently one of the fastest if not fastest roms around.
But just try them out and see what works best for you plenty of good roms about.

hello im looking to flash a kernel over my current roms kernel but i came from developing on a motorola atrix which had faux123s kernels as the best but i couldnt get the to boot on my s3 and i have no experience with the n4 (got it yesterday)
Personally I'm using franco. It has the best balance for me.

I sometimes wonder if people keep starting these threads simply to troll.
No such thing as best kernel or best ROM. Pick one whose features fit your needs and test it.

i dont have time to extensively test, most kernels i use i notice no diffrence, me personally i keep my processor at 1.026 max with sio and usually interactive as my governor, also some kernels have gpu overclocking and some dont i cant really tell even after sifting through everything, like a good rom i am testing every aosp based rom and i cant find one to really stick out. i am asking opinions i suppose.

can i use the faux control center to mess around with the gpu? if not i may just stick to his but i like franco since it has nightlys
I guess a better question would be should i stick with stable aosp roms and kernels or go with nightlys? if anyone has a suggestion or personal prefrence i would love to hear them, i have pretty muched used xylon and franco nightlys,slimbeans,paranoid android april 26th build and liquid smooth. havent felt the need to try vanillarootbox because from what i remember its cm based anyway
All of the kernels here are great. Try them all and see. Personally I think you should start with Trinity kernel. It has awesome performance.

no one ever gives matr1x credit, but that is definitely my #1.
many people say that franco,trinity or matrix are the best but sometimes the stock kernel as the CM kernel is the best at least for battery.
now if you are gamer etc maybe franco kernel is your best choice!

Nah. For gaming trinity is the best! For battery and smoothness Franco wins IMO.

I agree. I'm using Franco right now. Its able to push through a day of tweeting and whatsapping but stock kernel and cm kernel was amazing. 1% drain after 8 hours of WiFi on standby.
