[Q] Fastest/Smoothest ROM/Kernel Combo for N10? - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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

What is the best ROM for gaming?

I'm going to be buying a Nexus 7 in a few days and I was wondering what the best rom/kernel for gaming is
Games like Riptide, MC3, Asphalt 7, Dead Trigger are the games that I'm going to be playing
Thanks
There is no best anything. Try them all out and see which works the best for you.

this.
and i also recommend trying different kernels, they will make the most difference for gaming.
Honestly its more the kernel. I'm using pa with Franco and it keeps up with the best of em. I'd recommend Franco or Trinity kernel wise. And ROM is whatever you want.
Thread Closed​
As explained there is no "best" Rom for any particular user, its personal preference. I suggest you take some time to read the dev threads and make your own informed decision. People have strong feelings over there favourite, so these sort of threads often end up in a flame war.​

[Q] Best CM10.1

Hi.
Whats the best CM10.1 release for the nexus4.?
Thx.
What is YOUR opinion of "Best"? How do you expect us to tell you which one is the best if we don't know what you think is best?
The great thing is, this is a Nexus phone. Every single release will have everything working. If you flash nightlies, check the thread first and see what users are saying.
I don't mean to flame. Just try to be a little more specific with your questions on the future. Perhaps say "Whats the best for performance?" Or "What's the best for battery?"

custom roms for arc s review

hi every one
i would like to open a thread about reviews on custom roms on ARC S
reviews made as ORDINARY USER
it is just about how you think of your device AFTER a custom rom
what you like or dislike.....
what you miss or need and didn't found ....(no need to tell how and what you do , because that's another subject)
NO NEED to post Q or BUGS or HOW TO or REQUESTS or DEEP DEVELOPER details JUST....USER OPINION!!!
AND please give credits to the developers of the ROMS by posting links to threads you found the custom rom in.
Starting form here:
Arc S with rooted GB (LT18i 4.0.2.A.0.62) and CWM installed
AtoMic GB 5.0 final (custom rom)
AtoMic Gb 5.0 Arc S patch!
Atomic mod system ui
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2083286
-device working fine no lags or errors ..until now
-installing apps &games and they are working good for me
-no file manager pre-installed
-don't like ring tones
my overall opinion it is GOOD rom to try!!!:good::good:
You should use the respective Rom threads to post reveiws about romS!
edit:
allright if everyone wants it
Well I think it's a good idea for a thread that could help people in finding ROM's with features they are looking for. I dislike posting off topic so here I go:
CyanogenMod 10
+Clean
+Stable
+Fast
+Not as bloated as stock ICS
+JB notifications are useful
+Supported and actively developed
+Open source
-Camera is awful
-Ringtones could be better but who really cares?
Oh and don't take XtremeSilencer seriously he's not so bright...

The way People can find what they're looking for is by reading the ROM threads in the development section, not by reading noobs opinions on one of the many variations of a "best ROM" thread, which this is, evident by the short summary of what the OP thinks about the ROM.
I can't agree more. Which ROM is the fastest? Which kernel is best? etc. etc. It's like walking into a bar and asking which drink is the best. You can't get your answer because every person around has a personal taste and looking for something different.
Going further. Telling that one ROM is better than another is quite disrespectful to developers. Most of them spent much time making their work for FREE and one guy can easily depreciate their work.
If you're looking for answer - try. It's easy and making it on your own is much funnier than looking for spoon feeding in every situations. Thinking is fun

I can't see this as valid review, because every user is different and every user has its own needs. 2 people will not have totally same user experience on same ROM and kernel.

Actually I have an Ultimate HD of course, with Ultimate HD Mod and I like it very much.
+almost no lags
+xperia z theme
+modded statusbar (better than stock, I think)
+configurable
+quite frequent updates
-few useless system apps
Grade: 5,5 (in Poland we have grading scale from 2-5 at universities )
Previously I had used several other ROM`s, for example Viper Xpieria (good, 4,5-5), Racing Bean (not so good, 3-3,5), CyanogenMod 10 (good, 4), MIUI (good, 4), Jelly Sandwich (very good, 5, but it`s no longer developed I think) and CAMPS+ (bad, 2,5-3).
So to sum up, in my opinion the best ROM actually is Ultimate HD + Ultimate HD Mod, cause of no lagging, stability, and almost no bugs.
I've been using Custom ROMs for about 6 months. So, didn't try too many of them. The reason why I switched to custom ROM was Sony Bloatware and the slowness of official ICS ROM. What I was looking for was more internal space and get the phone up to GB speeds.
First try was CM9.
+ Easy to install, best documentation out there,
+ Good customization options,
+ Frees up load of memory,
+ The GUI doesn't lag too much
+ Fast boot-up.
- Apollo player (hated it and due to regional issues, I couldn't install Google Music),
- WiFi issues
Next I tried racing bean with Fusion 4.4
+ The GUI is much more fluid than anything I tried on my Arc,
+ Customization is on the same level as CM9,
+ Same internal storage usage as CM9,
+ Includes good players/utilities,
+ Battery life didn't shorten despite the fact that the phone became more fluid and responsive,
+ WiFi locks very fast and stable,
+ No issues with 3G,
- There are 3 camera programs included. The panaroma one doesn't even launch (force close immediately). The other two are definitely below the Sony's original camera application,
- The kernel boot takes forever. I see the Fusion logo for about 40 seconds. Once the Nexus animation starts, the boot-up goes very fast. I get the feeling that the Fusion kernel is waiting for a timeout,
- The phone reboots occasionally. Especially when GPS is used (like with dedicated navigation programs). I think when the phone is under heavy load (you feel that the GUI starts stuttering and lag becomes apparent) almost immediately the Nexus X logo comes up.
I heard good things about the Ultimate HD ROM. Will try that one once I get some free time.

Each user will have different experience with each ROM. So an opinion from a certain user about a certain ROM may differ from another user. The only way to truly find the best ROM for your phone is to try it out.

u should try by yourself. believe me buddy, its fun if you try by youself. This is not about how you install something that is inserted into your device, and you show people that you mostly have advanced technology. more than that comrade ... it's about development.
respect those who have tried to create a custom ROM and share it here...

Well I don't have 10 post under my belt so I can not post on developer thread but am a hyper droid flasher. Rooted my phone the very next day and voided its warranty. Since then have used many many ROMs but only few are there to remember.
Let me just go by Droid OS versions:
1. ICS 4.0.4= Pureness ROMS, VIPER
2. JB 4.1.2 = Slim bean or Super JB
3. JB 4.2.2 = Paranod Android v3.6 (Rizal Lovins) My current ROM

What Kernel for....

Hi guys,
One and simple question: - what kernel to use with stock rom on N7 3G 32GB, considering:
- A kernel that would not have to mess around with frequency and other settings without overclock and deliver a better battery life.
- For performance equal (or better) to stock satisfies.
- A kernel ready to install and no need to configure anything.
What recommend following these parameters?
:good:
Tks.
looking for a simple kernel, without many and many settings and deliver a excelente batt life
I am on smoothrom v5.0 using lean kernel and while I am new to the android modding community I tried 4 or 5 kernel/ROM combos before I decided on this combo. I will say I noticed my quadrant scores increase from 3600 to 4600 w/o over clocking and my battery life increased by a decent bit. I son,t know the exact increase but it was noticeable to me over stock setup.

20mmrain,
thanks,
Stock rom i think its ok to me, but i´m open mind.
Kernel for me its more important. I´ll take a look on this.
Tks.
Suggestion- read the kernel threads in the development forum and come to your own informed opinion.
Thread reported.
Hey no problem..... Give it a look..... I am not sure if you will get the same effect using stock ROM with leankernel nor am I sure you can even use the lean kernel with the stock ROM by itself. I know they have a thread here at XDA for this kernel maybe someone there can let you know.

I did it. And so I decided to ask the opinion. Most of what I read is always settings for experts, which I am not.
And do not want to spam the same question over all kernel threads.

just wondering what is the simplest kernel, next stock, delivery parameters without the need for various tweaks!
Ask to ear the users opinions. I think sometimes simplicity can be the better choice, especially for non-expert like me.

lean kernel and intersectraven's kernel. personally I like intersectraven's kernel better

[Opinion] Best optimized rom for gaming?

Hello! So I'm sure you've been asked this question before, but I'm curious to see some updated answers since there is a decent handful of roms available for the S4-1337 now.
I am very much an Android gamer, I've been using the sixaxis application with a Dual Shock 3 controller since the application was released; and have been hooking my phones up to TV's since I could. It's essentially my "gaming console".
Currently I'm not running any custom rom on my s4, it's just rooted and using xposed framework with wanam installed (for stock touchwiz customization).
I however have noticed that no matter what I do, I won't get the speed and frame rate I desire with the stock rom; as it's just too heavy on the phone. I'd like the opinions of other Android gamers here about what custom rom they find is best optimized for gaming and overclocking (if necessary). Generally something that's lite but has a lot of customization that I desire.
I currently am a devout player of the Modern Combat series, other games are touch and go once in awhile.
Thanks,
Branden.
I just want to give you a heads up, this might get closed down as "best for xxxxx" isn't allowed.
My suggestion to you is to flash a slimmed down ROM or a ROM thats well known and slim it down your self. Also, the stock Google edition base is a goof foundation. Don't forget kernel settings tweaks!

Oh, I'm fairly new; should have read the rules before posting this question! Hopefully the "[Opinion]" part will keep it up.
Any specific kernel you suggest? I think I may use Cyanmod.

I don't really want to give out names as I don't love to play favorites but since your new.. I'd advise against CM/AOKP ROMs that are nightlies as I think they're not for casual gaming since commits change daily. @task650 tends to put out some stable choices for a ROM based on aosp. (Aokp).
For kernels I've found there is community favorites. Faux, chronic, ktoon. (No order). Try them out and see for yourself.

Excellent! I'll avoid CM based Rom's for now than, and try something that won't be updated too often.
As for the Kernal, will try Chronic first I think.
No need for favorite's, just opinions. ^_^

Wanted to update you and let you know I did go with tasks ROM and his underwear Kernel. Very lightweight! Though I may flash a different kernel, for better overclocking potential. Decent fps increase while gaming and zero interface lag. Thanks so much for the support febby!
