Hi,
I think you will find that NOBODY knows which ROM will be best for you.
Only YOU will be able to make that decision...
Did you actually read my thread?

Best Android
Hi.
If you can live without Htc Sense then the best rom is American Android Cynogen Mod 7.

test them for yourself that is the only way you will find out

instead of making another thread.
what is the best in terms of:
stock or cm7 (no sense)
camera bt wifi hotspot of course everything working
best battery life in use. pretty much every rom gets 3 to 7 in standby (except i still get random jumps to 60 sometimes)
but it varies between roms some in use get me 150 and others go to 400.
so whats the best battery life currently?

I've got a better idea. Get off your laziness, stop asking people questions you can find the answer for, and do something. You're sitting on a chair already, so do some typing, clicking, are your fingers that tired, weak? Is it that hard to simply try out a different rom? Or do you find the need to clog up the forums with a useless thread?
I apologize if this is hurtful, but I think such ignorance demands it.

Don't apologize to him/her....your meaning to be an ass.
As for a serious answer....there are 4 builds I'd suggest. NAND: typhoon cm7, hyperdroid. SD: ACA(cope and my creation) and miui.
Stay away from mccm builds. The person fails to build from source thus has limited control over the builds he/she steals.
Lots of choices overall. See what gets your attention.....the ones I laid out are great for starters and often times the ones people end up going with.
Nuff said.

I love lamp.

ACA
I'm using AmeriCan Android, SD build, can't be happier with it, it's fast and updates frequently and the devs are very nice. But pick a few roms and test yourself, see which one you like the most.

Why is it called American Android? It's for USA only or something?

You should try either TyphoonCM7 or NexusHD2, best roms imo.

It's technically AmeriCanAndroid.
It was a play off of me and Copenhagen. Myself, from the United States of AMERICA. Him, from Canada. And Android, our OS. Now the crazy way we spell it should make more sense.
And we have users world-wide.

These threads really need to be titled... "What are the preferred ROMs people currently run"

EWJet 2.3.3 vs WB 2.3.3

Ok guys, so this thread is to help those who are undecided like me on which of these two roms to use. I am looking for input from people who have experienced both of them and which one do you prefer and why. Also which one is fastest, has better battery performance, best features, looks etc. Basically what sold you to that rom.
PLEASE dont take this as some sort of competition between this to DEVS, as I am sure that both of these roms are great, and maybe it comes down to personal prference, but I will like some input from the guys that have tried them both.

Im currently using WB 008 2.3.3 and it rocks!!
no problems

best answer is test them both!

ThGo2 v0.80
Simple, reliable. And I'm pretty sure it will be the first few roms to come with custom kernel of Goro, as the dev himself is also Japan based.

[Q] Best Sense Rom and Best ICS Rom

ive been trying roms here and there but cant find the perfect one, but i want opinions on the best Sense rom and best ICS rom since im torn between the two. i personally likes sense when i had a MT4G and i like how the layout of ICS is. so opinions every one?

There is no 'best ROM'. You'll have to try them out and find one for yourself. What works for one person won't necessarily work for another. Also, if you're going to respond to this directly come up with something better than 'oh I just want opinions' because all you have to do to find that is to look in the ROM thread at some of the posts and to look at the viewcount + post count of each ROM.

Try NexusHD2 CM9 HWA by TyTung
I don't think there is an ICS ROM with Sense. Sbryan 1124 has an alpha version of the 4.0.3 Sense 4 ROM from the One V but it's not fit for daily use. Try the NexusHD2 CM9 HWA by TyTung. It's vanilla ICS but it has very few issues

thats why i said "but i want opinions on the best Sense rom and best ICS" which means i want opinions on why they think its the best, not just what i think is best.. i much rather hear what other people have to say about the rom. if i wanted on just tuned for me i would just make my own.

Lol i know that much, but when i tried sense roms i had some lag. But with the ICS roms i have more reliability, im using Nexus HD2 i like it but its been buggy on me where it doesnt notify me when i get a text so its kinda of making me go "eehh" to that rom for now.

Either way you look at it, 'best ROM' threads are wrong and there isn't an answer so why bother asking?

Having made my point about there being no best ROM, I can say that NexusHD2 works absolutely perfectly for me. I've been notified about every text and it's without doubt the fastest ROM I've tried for playing games and web browsing in particular. I won't say it's the best ROM because this is EXACTLY what I mean about 'what works for one won't necessarily work for another' but it's certainly good. Sense ROMs are in general slow, and you're not experiencing anything out of the ordinary. If you don't like one of them, chances are you're not going to like any of them.

I know what you mean, im sorry for mis-wording the thread, but i just like seeing opinions on Rom's before i try them. But if i dont like one sense rom doesnt mean i wont like a different one, every developer has there on way how they make their rom, so what could be in this rom could be completely different in this one, but hey thats the fun of making a rom. Also NexusHD2 my current daily use rom just because of how clean and stable it is, i probably messed something up to get the notification problem, but it has high potential along with paranoidandroid. but the main reason i like opinions on this subject is because maybe there is a underdog rom some where that isnt really get as much attention as the bigger ones right now that could be actually decent and what im looking for, or maybe and aspiring developer is making something.

I agree with you on wanting opinions I like to see the same... just ignore the above person because there is no where in the rules that's states this is wrong.....he just has nothing better to do..... anyway back on topic..... I have tried paranoid ( which I'm on and I LOVE) the later update allows alot of spirit changes that allow me to have everything to my liking... I have a half table half phone thing going on and its great. I tried aokp but I felt it was too buggy maybe after its off hold it will be better. I myself have been wondering about gb roms my self i haven't tried any hope this helps

The main reason i liked paranoidandroid was becaus of how stable it was and the uniqueness of the tablet phone. It looked nice and felt nice but the keyboard was a giant turn off and when i installed a different keyboard it would bug out like crazy and i couldnt find a way to fix it. But overall it has really good and clean.

Paranoidandroid 1.1a didn't work so well for me. The phone randomly restarted one day and was stuck at the boot screen for hours. NexusHD2 gets the job done for me. I can live with the bugs

Thats why Nexus HD2 is my daily use rom, the only bugs in it are small ones that will be worked out. but other than that its overall great, but personally parnoidandroid does have my attention because i like the whole hybrid style, just some kinks need to be ironed out.

It definitely is IMO it has even more detail into what dpi's can be controlled and it has a new keyboard... the giant keyboard was a true turn off but I fixed that by adjusting the dpi for the keyboard and its great now I have hack zero reeboots or issues and battery life with juice defender and slightly oc is like 17 hrs moderate use for me

Whilst I'm not here to get into any sort of argument, I'd just like to point out that just because something isn't stated in the rules doesn't mean it's not wrong. Back on topic though, Paranoidandroid is really good and different from other ROMs, although as of when I tried it NexusHD2 was far more stable and I preferred it.

[Q] Fastest/Smoothest ROM/Kernel Combo for N10?

I'm an incoming newbie to the android tablet scene and am planning to purchase a Nexus 10 soon. I was just wondering which is currently the fastest (app opening, loading times, etc.) and smoothest (transitions, scrolling, etc.) ROM/Kernel Combo out there for the N10? I know that trying out as many as I can would probably be a better approach but any opinion or suggestion on the matter would be highly appreciated, especially by a total newbie like myself. Thanks.

Most over asked question. Use the search.

Might be true for other devices in this site, although I'm not so sure for the Nexus 10 device specifically. Thank you for sharing your opinion though.

Going by benchmarks alone that would probably be mrRobinsons AOKP Pub rom and KTManta kernel. What is smoothest in normal use is hard to say as people have different opinions but I don't think you can go particularly wrong with any combo. Personally I use mrRobinsons AOKP Pub and Trinity Ten kernel and have no complaints.

Wasn't really sure which category to place this question, being a newbie and all as stated at the beginning. My apologies.

Lol its all good I'm not to worried... Just not too often you see 2 threads with the same exact name right on top of each other

There is no best rom/kernel/theme/whateveryoucanimagine it depends on your personal experience. Just try and decide what suits you better.

[Q] Custom rom for Nexus 4

Which one is better in terms of device performance and battery consumption ?
Cyanogenmod or Paranoid Android

In my experience they are both relatively the same battery and performance.

As is always the case in threads like this there is one answer.
Try them and see for yourself. The effectiveness of a ROM is usually a very personal thing based on how you use your phone.
Anyway where is the fun in only trying one ROM?

Cyanogenmod is the rom that mostly everyone bases their work/rom from. It's crazy stable for me, and battery life is really good. I'll use nothing other than CM.

To be honest, I hate backup/restore steps. As we know that installing a new ROM (in case of Nexus 4) means factory reset and complete wipe-up of the device.
One of the main objective of posting this query is to be save myself from this thing.

not true. aosp is what most base their roms on, even cm was first based on aosp. there is no best rom, only the rom that best suits YOUR needs. try them all out, find whats best for you. besides, for best performance and battery, you want to find the best kernel for your needs, not rom.

You only need to wipe on the first flash and after that 'dirty' flashing usually gives no issues (at least in my experience). Make a Titanium backup and you can restore your apps very quickly and easily (even faster using the Pro version).
