revolution 6.1.0 is awesome!

I can use SRS!
not use any other app!
thank you revolution!

Yes !
Nothing to say about this rom !
Just great great work !!!

This ROM is truly amazing. I've tested alot of ROMS now but I always had to install ARHD after every single ROM.

hi the roms is very good
iam having some trouble withe the remove script

Agreed really good, trying RCmix VoidU at the moment too, very similar but getting fc with Acrobat Reader and can't uninstall!
Will probably go back to ARHD

Go to Market and download Root Uninstaller than uninstall whatever you want

sorry boys but has any of you tried CM7 or H2O?? ARHD is nice for someone who likes Sense UI but if you don't like it or don't mind it than any non-sense rom is a lot better. I tried many ROMS and none of the sense roms are even half as fast as CM7

yeah this rom really rocks ;D

Yeah, H2O is really fast hehe.

Would have to agree. ARHD 6.1.0 is definitely awesome. XD
To me it seems much smoother and much more responsive than 5.2.6. However I'm not really liking some aspects of the UI like the new weather widget and lock screen. :\

The new ROM is absolutely great! In fact this is my first CustomROM, just rooted the Phone 3 days ago..., but it's much faster and more energy efficient than the original stockROM is. Love it!

6.1.0 is great, fast, stable and battery life is great, tried a few other ROMs including CM7 but keep coming back to ARHD.

ARHD is a rom for absolute beginners on the custom rom world.
There are lots of different roms with much more possibillities.
for example...
- MIUI
- CyanogenMod
Try more often a different rom and discover the fun of flashing.

I really love revolition rom. today i spent all day with flashing this rom. But I've severeal problems with it.
When I try to install modifications (Like Advanced CPM, Custom Quick Menu, lower auto brightnes), It's stucks at Boot Screen... I couldn't understand why doing this but i think this addons only compatible with revolition 5.x.
Am i right ?

yes, you need to wait for the 6.1.0 mods. The 5.x mods will not work with 6.1.0. updated mods are scattered among the thread but you will need to look for them. The updated mods will be added to first page soon I'm sure.

Not sure if its just me. But I am unable to calibrate the g sensor, it just says it fails

Actually the message is calibration aborted...

Yea i like the rom too it works amazing

Or... it's also a ROM for people who like Sense, and possibly even bought an HTC phone because of Sense, at least partly.
Some of us like AOSP or MIUI ROMs, some of us like Sense ROMs. Let's not get into putting down various ROMs or people who use them, please. These things are subjective and are opinions not facts.
However I completely agree that it's fun to flash different ROMs and try them out - no argument there!

This ROM seems really good.

Good and stable ROMS

Hey guys, so I'm kinda new at doing custom roms and kernels and I'm super eager to learn everything. I just unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone succesfully yesterday. But of course, rooting the nexus s is a must to install custom roms.
I want to know what you guys think are GOOD and STABLE ROMS where everything seems to function.
I was looking at the nexusshacks website and they have the AOKP kang jellybean ROM but I'm hearing from a bit of people that not everything works and it freezes at the boot screen. also there's a problem that apparently you cant see your gallery and music, and also data doesnt work on it.... I just want something that works good and is stable and gives me good battery life!
Thanks for your time

The best thing about these ROM is you can try them for yourself and see if it work for you.
A lot of people don't follow the instruction and complain all the time, there are people enjoying the ROM and you will never hear from them. My respect to the developers who do great work, because of them I have the latest and best android experience ever, for the last two years I have no need to upgrade my phone.
Try them all.

Cool, thanks alot for the advice, I'd still like to know what other ROMs are out there tho so that I can try them all out one day
Is there a good kernel? I'm not too educated on kernels lol

Hi
Rooting isn't a must for installing custom roms you can always use fastboot tool to install custom recovery
I've flashed one million custom roms to my i9023. And what I learned from it is flashing most of them was just a waste of time. However, if I hadn't done this, I wouldn't have known what to choose now. Gingbread roms are really fast and responsive. However they are not so smooth when it comes to scrolling. Also gingerbread roms lack a lot of nice features that come in later builds.
ICS was a misunderstanding for me. It was slow, laggy but the functionality was better than gingerbread. I was ready to sell my nexus because of that disappointment.
Finally Jelly Bean came along. And that, my friend is something different. Project butter makes the phone so smooth, scrolling is superb, animations and applications seems so smooth now. Speed of gingerbread(almost) and looks and functionality of ics
You can try every rom you can. You're gonna waste a lot of time just on flashing restoring, flashing and restoring and so on. You might even get frustrated. Or you can try this and simply start liking your phone

This is pretty stock, just the way I like it. It's freaking smooth, it hardly ever lags, perfect to bring you some smile from using your nexus most of other roms always come up with some bug or lack of some feature that works on stock rom. The rom I mentioned simply works. Trust me and install this one and you won't regret

cool thanks man... ONE question before I begin... Im assuming the kernel is already in the ROM .zip file here right? Now if the kernel is seperate do you just add into the SD card like adding a ROM to the sd card? do you have to do anything under recovery?

Kernel is included. Just install this rom from the recovery kernels are always in a zip file, you install them like you install a rom.
But this time you don't have to even think about the kernel, because it's already built into whole rom zip file

the pic & music issue is probably related to the bad Rom manager app update that put .nomedia files where they didn't belong.
I always run a new/updated Rom with its baked in kernel for a day or two to see how it does before flashing a separate kernel, unless I have major issues related to the baked in kernel. Not all devices act the same, even on the exact same setup.

If you're new to the whole flashing game with the android devices id say start with Flashing Custom Kernels. So you can get the the feel for what just the kernel can do for your phone. There's a couple well named ones that you might hear a lot about like the Matr1x Kernel, GLaDOS Kernel, Thalamus Kernel. For the most part a few of them have the same stuff but certain Kernels run faster or smoother. Once you get the hang of that then move to Custom ROMS. As everyone says you kinda have to try out Everything for yourself as 2 people can have 2 completely different experiences with flashing. Essentially though, the Names that you see a lot are typically the most liked ROMS and Kernels for there Features and Stability.
Happy Flashing

I think its the other way around due to fact that I would not recommend flashing a kernel over stock ota without backing up first. Reason for this is that if you want to get an ota update with the stock ROM it won't work if the kernel is different from the one Google provides (experienced this problem while trying to flash a completely stock Google provided rom). So I would first flash a ROM and test it, trying as many features and see if that's what I like and then start experimenting with different kernels as most might not be stable for your particular phone. I am a vanilla Android type of person nonetheless.
Note: the rom a developer chooses are most likely the ones that he thinks are the most stable so in theory you should not run into any problem with it.

Hey guys i really appreciate the advise. Just to let you all know, I flashed AOKP kang ROM and it's so smooth and quick. I also flashed a matrix kernel v.22 (believe its the cfc version). However, I was really hoping to overclock my cpu a little to get some better gaming performance. I'm looking everything under the ROM settings and the actual phone settings to see if there's anything to change for the cpu.
How do I overclock the cpu??? I know there's customizable roms where you can overclock the cpu for games then tone it down for normal usage and what not; that's really what I wanted.

I use a an APP called "NSTools" or "SetCPU"

I'm order to oc, you must be using a kernel that supports oc. The matr1x 22.5 (his jb version) doesn't support oc, but he should have a new version it soon. I can't say if it can be overclocked though.

good question.. personally I use codename (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839249) with air kernel(that supports oc, even if I set max cpu 1000 as default).. really fast, no lags with good battery life and everything seems work great. I've tried a lot of roms and a lot of them are really good (I like to change a lot) and in my opinion you have to try a lot of them and chose your favourite
p.s.every time you flash a rom or kernel is better to make a backup(and then a wipe), so if something went wrong you can restore the phone as it was before.. sometimes kernel is not included in rom, you have to check it in phone informations.
I hope this was what you needed

Also, Im not sure if there's a kernal that comes with it, so i was wondering if there is any kernels and if there is, do you have a link?:cyclops:
EDIT: I'm going to have to apologize to AOKP. I think the ROM i was running on my phone was a buggy ROM, the unstable one before BUILD 1. I didnt realize this until I watched a video on nexusshacks.com.. but either way i flashed codename jellybean

[Q] Custom Roms

Hi all!
I recently got Nexus 4 and I'm getting back to the android scene now since my old Mytouch 4G days. I was an iphone user. So, Ive read lot of forums and did search up typical questions I have.
Firstly, is there a relatively good custom rom for availaboe for nexus 4 besides the Stock 4.2 that im using currently. Any opinions? I prefer better battery life, touch screen response, and overall smoothness, but dont want to compromise performance though. Also, is CWM more reliable custom recovery than TWRP?
Thanks!

Well first of all to get those "Custom Rom's" you need to Root (Jailbreak) your device.
Cyanogenmod 10.1 is pretty good for starters Rom wise. And before you do anything DO YOUR HOMEWORK! ... go on Youtube watch and learn how people Root, Flash Customs ROMS & Kernels (Overclocking, better Battery Life etc etc) before blindly doing anything.

What you are asking here is purely opinion. I prefer TWRP and others prefer CWM. I like Twrp because I can easily flash multiple files instead of flashing them all separately. Custom Rom I use is CyanogenMod. But again, that's all opinion. See, we have an AOSP device, so most roms will be very stable. Custom Roms are based on AOSP instead of Touchwiz or other skinned Android version. This means less hacking is required to get things working in custom roms. When a Samsung or HTC phone gets CyanogenMod or another AOSP based Rom, there are several hacks to get things working and even then, not everything works. You will find all Roms to be stable. I choose CM because they have great features, but don't go overboard. AOKP IMO is too much and most of it is useless to me. But, some people like having all the options AOKP brings.
I suggest trying things out! That's the best part of Android. Make a backup of your current setup in recovery and flash away! It's easy to restore what you had. It's nearly impossible to brick a Nexus and I recommend giving each Rom you try more than just an hour or two and really try it out. You made a great choice by getting a Nexus as your first Android after being away for a while. Take advantage of it!

Try sr1 ROM,,that thing runs the smoothest out of all the ROMs out there. Which is crazy, as anything you'll try will be rather fast due to how responsive this device is. Pair that with Franco kernel and you'll have pretty great battery life as well.

Wonderful reply, thank you. I did use TWRP on my brothers Gnex, it did a soft brick, and had to revert to CWM when flashing CM on his phone, i dont know why it did. I did full wipe, and other wiping in recovery :S. For a noob like myself, I'm just afraid of bricking despite all the reading I do and know it well, in real world things do go wrong. As for Roms, I do understand what AOSP and AOKP mean, but don't know whats the difference in actual roms.
I won't have a lot of time with flashing roms my university opens soon, so I can give it a shot. CM 10.1 nightlies is a good start? Or Xylon? From my research, I leaning towards them and the MinCo + Franco.
Thank you for the warm welcome , I feel really happy and glad to be back to android again . This time there is no going back, I love penta band 3G phones and they only exist in android and windows. But, prefer android due to so much you can do now!
One last thing though, about the kernel, should I start with Franco one, or stick with stock for now?

[Q] Advice for a ROM

Hi guys...
I have a N7 16Gb from october and I think thare's not a real reason to change the rom on this device...except the tablet ui and the general fun to make it!
Well...
I'm not here to ask you guide etc. but an advice.
What custom rom do you advice? many talk about Paranoidandroid but I try it on an old Galaxy Scl and it was pretty horrible and unstable...but on nexus seems the rom most supportend and with much more feature...
Or I'm attracted by the Dirk AOKP that seem pretty good....
Beside this....it's difficult also the kernel decision...
Franco Kernel? or M3 or Trinity? I'm not interested in overclock...
thanks to all in advance

no one?

No one is answering because there are a ton of these threads asked all the time. There is no best Rom or Kernel. Try searching and see what features you like or what sounds interesting and then just install it and see for yourself.

I personally like the Omega 3 kernel, OC is optional and it has just about every scheduler/governor you could possibly want. Performance and battery life are pretty much on par with the other top kernels. I haven't tried any ROMS mainly because the 2 I flashed ended up boolt-looping. So I am using the stock with some pretty major tweaks. I am a DEV on other sites and once I jump through the hoops to be able to post in developer forums I will be posting my own ROM. OC is for people who don't know how to optimize. *cough*

Modaco custom ROM (currently version Jr13) is light, mostly stock, extra features that help me are- prerooted, enhanced power menu, tweaked youtube app for video preload, enhanced quick settings panel, comes with gapps etc.
Modaco cyanogenmod custom ROM (currently version r4) consumes more processing power, based on CM 10.1 so has all its features, prerooted, more enhanced power menu(with screenshot and extended desktop options), tweaked youtube, enhanced quick settings(devoid of vol control), comes with gapps, comes with cyanogenmod file manager etc.
MCR Jr13 and MCMCR r3 are interchangeable with dirty flash so I get to retain all my apps.
M-kernel (currently a33 version) gives me ample undervolting option (lp, cpu, gpu, ram), and I can set minimum brightness with rootdim, so I can extend my battery life.

Don't know why people make thread to ask others what's best rom, kernel... Answers will be different from users and depends what they prefers, so it'll be difficult to make a choice because every answers won't be the same. What I did when i wanted to choose was reading threads and try by myself to see what I liked. Sorry if my answer will not help you to choose but it's the best i can advise you. Hoping you find what best suits you.
Phone: GT-I9100P
Kernel: Dorimanx
ROM: 4.2.1 Vanilla RootBox
Tablet: Nexus 7
Kernel: M-Kernel
ROM: 4.2.1 AOKP PUB
MOD: JusTunBean

Xenon
Im usin Xenon HD its a 4.2 rom (aokp base) and it's very customizable for your likes. You should give it a try.:cyclops:

If you are doing any ROM other than stock, I suggest AOKP for sure. It has a ton of mods for your ui and allows a lot of customizing. Make sure you get 4.1.2 milestone version and get your gapps as well or you won't have necessary files. Hope this helps look in the aokp official thread for download

thanks to all...
all advices are really usefull to understand the mod world...
I was intent to install an AOKP rom, but I don't really understand the difference...
I would like to try the the paranoid but i think is AOSP...
for AOKP I don't know what rom to try...I see the Dirty AOKP but I'm not sure....

There's also one called smooth ROM check it out, you should search YouTube to see if you like it. personally I'm back to the to the 4.1.2 stock rom because on aokp it wasn't allowing me to install some APK's from the play store that i really wanted. it said they werent compatible with my device when I knew they were compatible with n7.. I wish there was a way around that but nobody on here would tell me if there was or not when i posted a thread asking... anyways hope you find what you are looking for and I do suggest checking YouTube first for custom Roms for nexus 7 before flashing over hella different ones it would take less time, peace and good luck!

Official AOKP or CyanogenMod. Once you get a feel for either one then go for a custom version of said ROM. Both are pretty stable and bug free.

If going for CyanogenMod, I'd suggest also going for a "M" build (I think M2 is still the latest). I'd avoid nightly builds until your a bit more comfortable with different custom ROM's and stuff.

I'd start with CleanROM, which is basicially stock plus performance enhancements. Then, as you want to try more features, move on to AOKP.
I'd also recommend EOS ROM. Great ROM for features and stability.

One of the best things about android for most devices is the ability to flash custom roms and this device has a lot of options. Most popular roms will have most amount of posts. Make sure the Rom is for your device read the original post and follow install instructions and you should be ok... Be careful though... it can be addicting and will increase the amount of time reading posts on this site.
Personally I use task650's AOKP for the stability, battery life and customizable options

The replies you already received are all very good. I would like to add one more suggestion. Use your a recovery program either CWM or TWRP to perform a nandroid backup of you current working device is a MUST. If you run into problems you can also restore it and instantly return to a working state. That technic can also allow you to try/save/restore a number of ROMs.
When you find the one you want to use as your daily driver just delete the redeundant nandroid backups. A word of caution is that you should always leave one stable nandroid backup on your device "just-in-case" things go bad.
Be aware that if you switch recovery programs (e.g. CWM to TWRP) your backups under the previous recovery program may no longer work. So after you switch, make a new nandoid backup. I believe the recovery developers are working on resolving this limitation but I would take a new backup to be sure.
