So about 2 weeks ago, I flashed Paranoid Android on my Nexus 7. It's been working great, but it freezes a lot more, crashes and reboots the tablet. I don't know if it's the rom or what.
I flashed it for a day or so and had the same issue. I love PA, but it doesn't seem to be the smoothest on the N7.
More info such as which version would be helpful.

I'm using PA 3.16 on Jellybean 4.2.2 JDQ39. Like I said, it's amazing and I love the rom (despite the fact that it takes away the lock rotation) and it's hybrid features, having the features that the Nexus 10 has is amazing, but it's so unstable. It'll be working and then it will freeze and it freezes way more than stock rom. I might go back to CM 10.1

Yea, the only reason I haven't flashed it to CM 10.1 or SmoothRom v5 again, is because I love the hybrid features, especially on YT.

In that case, the problem was, unfortunately, that you didn't read before flashing. That build was never intended to be a daily driver. It is an early alpha, meant only to test hybrid2.
Fortunately, you should be okay with just a dirty flash back to one of the "nightlies." Chalk it up as a lesson learned about the importance of reading up on a new version rather than blindly flashing just because goomanager says there's an update available.

I actually didn't get goomanager until I flashed PA. It installed with it. I came here on the forums and watched vids on YouTube. People were using this version.
You should definitely see less issues if you go back to 3.15. It's a far more "stable" release. Personally, I'd also use m-kernel with it as well.

How much smoother can it be than stock jb? Seems like people are getting placebo effects from custom roms, only benefit I see is removal of bloat, if there is any really.

It ships with stock so run stock for a few weeks to establish a baseline for stability and speed before you go experimenting.
I would wait a couple months. Stock nexus 7 runs great. Just unlock and root it. After a couple months Roms will start to mature and you will also see which ones seem to be leading, me personally, I love to flash. But I, very happy with stock and nova launcher. There are some things I would like from full tablet ui. But every ROM is promising the world. Just waiting to see which ones take the lead.
So just wait for now. no rush, do you hate stock that much?
Edit:
Plus people are having some issues booting into recovery without a USB or adb

Have tried just about all the popular ones out as of yet, favorite so far has to be TeamEOS' nightlies. Very stable, UI works great, launcher rotation, and has the ICS style status bar, which I prefer.

I've been using the Pure AOSP rom, I used the stock for a couple of days and then switched, never looked back. There aren't a lot of differences between stock and the Pure AOSP, but the AOSP rom provides a cleaner starting point and the camera works by default.

I keep trying new ones in hopes that it will somehow get even better, but keep returning to stock.
Nothing is as smooth.
Currently running stock, rooted, deodexed. With the tabletUI mod. Nova launcher. awesome.
I'm running BAMF Paradigm. It's absolutely an amazing blend of custom features that offer visual and performance related options to really make it your tablet, I'm very happy with it, I've run several others also. DEFINITELY recommend Motley's kernel, it's one of the things I love most about the nexus 7. Also Aaronpoweruser's (sp) cookies and cream rom ran really good for me.
Just go for a different kernel rather than ROM, I tried out Trinity today (only got the 7 yesterday) and I find its quite slick..

I've also found that Glazed is the only ROM of the one's that I've tried so far that let's me use Amazon Instant Video from the Amazon web site.
I am looking at the Rom's and am itching to flash one to go with the Matrix kernel but I don't know what to choose!
I was looking at "[ROM] Android Open Kang Project - MAKO - JBean 4.2" but never ran AOKP before so I'm unsure. Then Cyanogenmod has the nightlys out now so I could flash an official one from the website or go for KonstantineKeller"s "[ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial - Mako - JellyBean 4.2 [NOV/25/2012]"
Stock is treating me very well but I never ran stock in so long, I always ran Cyanogen or Viper rom on my Sensation!
I like the customization of the custom Roms but am worried about stability.
I am stuck in a swirling torrent of indecisiveness... help.
Waiting a week or two for more mature CM10.1 and CM10.1-based ROMs.
I do have my bootloader unlocked and CWM installed in preparation, though.
I've got my circle battery mod, and pretty soon I'll flash a kernel so I can undervolt a little. If someone comes up with way to use the volume button for music controls, I won't have any reason to flash a new rom. gotta love stock android.
I think I'm staying stock until a proper CM or AOKP rom goes out, I had a Galaxy S3 and the CM and AOKP overall experience is/was pretty bad because of the propietary drivers. So until N4 gets AOSP, no custom roms for me.
but tstock nexus 4 runs simply great, so at least for now, it's ok.

I'm with you too. This is the first time I haven't had the urge to root and flash from the get go. Android 4.2 really is great and I am only missing a few features from aokp. I will however root and flash as soon as we get stable aokp because I don't want to deal with bugs and instability issues on my sunny new device.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I am going to stay stock until I make sure all is well with my device. Besides that I actually like it just as it is.
I will also wait until some ROMs are stable and as bug free as possible. I don't want to have my device not have the front-facing camera or Bluetooth not work properly. Or some other issue.

I love Paranoid Android I have been using their rom ever since I had a gnex... and it's been running just fine on my N4!
Within an hour I was up and running with Paranoid Android. Such a simple device to unlock/root/flash etc especially with the tool kits. My first Android experience was with a HTC Legend where you needed to make gold cards and stuff. Wasn't complicated, just a lot of steps. Thankfully I moved to a HD2 which was a breeze to do most stuff.
With the N4 it was just download a program, install the press, load up the program, answer a question or two in relation to what build you have and the application updates. Press option #8 which does everything (unlock/root/flash) then about 5 minutes later you have everything done for you.
Cunning official CM10.1 nightlies. Quite stable, haven't had a problem as of yet.

Well, it's a bit different stock rom is really smooth. I think cm10 stable is as smooth as well providing you use cm default kernel. Just try it yourself, it's nice.
However, if you're into looking for new things you may as well try cm10.1 nightlies. I'm amazed by how well it runs. Super fast and looking nice. Just disable lockscreen widgets(if you dont like them like me) and you're good to go

I'm using Helly Bean 4.2.1 right now and i'm not noticing any bug yet. The kernel that comes with it even performs good enough so you don't need to flash a custom kernel.
If you want your phone as bug-free as possible, i suggest flashing MDO 11.10 for now, then flash a CM 10.1 based rom when Cyanogenmod team already released a stable version.

Using CM10.1 nightly as daily driver, and I haven't experienced any bugs, other that the tilt sometimes stop working (reboot gets it to work again)
You can read more about it here (and se what issues other people have experienced) - Remember CM10.1 is only nightly's so far, so always look on the last page of the thread.

CM10.1 is a lot smooter than cm10,
For some reason, i keep going back to CM every time I try something else. There are always something that is buggin me with the other roms.
I have used CM9, CM10 and CM10.1 (nightlies) on my i9023 - CM9 was last one stable for me - worked like a charm. Both CM10 and CM10.1 crashes few time a day (all at default setting) - would not recommend for someone, who need to make sure phone is working - oftentimes can't answer calls, when some other application is running.
Using cm10.1 had some reboots only when tried to overclock. Otherwise it just works without any crashes. You should try to install after full wipe.

Wow I really like what google has done here with 4.3 ...
I would like to see RootBox or SlimBean here soon but I would like to keep the defaul Camera installed with 4.3 JellyBean
In due time. The device isn't even "officially" released yet and the source definitely isn't available yet. If the new N7 gets dev support like the old N7 has, we're certainly in for a very robust assortment of ROMs and kernels. TBH, I'm surprised there's even a TWRP release at this point.

All I want is Paranoid android, which isn't even available on the nexus 4 with 4.3 yet, And Franco kernel.
Anything with tablet mode. I think I was using Smoothrom. Aokp has it too, as many others. It'll have to be ported first.
I know eventually tablet mode will be gone forever in favor of a unified phone OS. Using stock is OK, but I like having different layout then my phone. To me, it reminds me Gingerbread on a tablet... It just feels awkward.
Stock Android is getting so polished that custom Roms aren't as needed anymore. Before, custom Roms "fixed" things. Not it is more cosmetic.
Sent from Nexus 7 FHD from XDA Premium HD
I figured I would start a thread since I couldn't find one devoted to posting our personal experiences with ROMs for our Kindles.
I have tried 3 separate roms out thus far.
CM 10.1 (JB 4.2.2)
This was my first dive into custom roms for my first gen Kindle Fire, and it was a pretty easy transition. Really enjoyed freeing up the device by not having to have the stock Kindle firmware. Apps ran far more quickly and smoothly. After using this for a while I yearned for something faster/smoother. (probably need to get myself a higher powered device to improve on that). Somewhat missed the lack of an Amazon Video app. It's too bad Amazon has not yet developed an app for other Android devices that we can install. A minor issue (with all roms) seems to be the boot animation. It starts out stretched and in the upper right region of the screen at first and then corrects itself maybe 10 seconds later and is centered. Not a big deal of course. The only drawback for me personally with this one is CM's lack of customization.
JB 4.3 Barebones
I had read that JB 4.3 ran a bit quicker (and used more battery) than 4.2.2. I found this to be the case. Especially when using an app like Flipboard this is apparent. The boot time seemed to be a bit longer than CM 10.1, but that could very well be my perception. I did find that the build I was on seemed to give me issues on restarts. I'd restart and icons would be missing and the icon themes I was using with Apex would have to be reset. Mild annoyance that I didn't enjoy dealing with. Overall I was mildly satisfied and preferred CM 10.1 to the specific (early) JB 4.3 that I was using, despite the fact that CM ran slower.
AOKP (JB 4.2.2)
Just installed this one tonight. Coming into this, I was already a big fan of AOKP 4.2.2 as its my daily driver on my Droid Razr M. Love AOKPs customization. Anything beyond AOKP level customization is overkill for my taste. AOKP just has everything I'd need in that department. I did notice that I feel like I'm back to CM 10.1 speed which I may or may not settle on. A minor issue I found was the screen rotation glitch (which I have heard is found in few different ROMs.) It's nothing too major, but it may be enough of a nuisance to get me to switch in the future. We'll see. I do prefer AOKP 4.2.2 over CM 10.1 strictly due to AOKPs level of customization. If you are simply looking for a ROM beyond stock and not necessarily looking for great options and customization, I'd say go with CM 10.1 (If you don't have your heart set on JB 4.3, that is). But my personal favorite of the 3 would have to be AOKP. I have not used this long enough to properly test the battery life compared to CM 10.1.
I hope this helps any noobs like me who are giving flashing roms a thought. Would love to hear what you all are finding for the best speed and battery life. I'll post any updates for roms that I try in the future.
Summary:
Best Battery - CM 10.1
Best Speed - JB 4.3 Barebones
Best Customization - AOKP 4.2.2

I'll check it out thanks! How does battery life compare with the others you've tried? I'll take speed over battery life at this point though. So definitely giving it a shot, thanks!

Well just as you mention it, BAM! That's exactly what I'm experiencing now with AOKP 4.3. Lots of browser crashes and keyboard issues where it will not pop up. Rom is still a decent bit quick, but I may be looking to downgrade from JB 4.3 to something that won't have minor issues such as browser crashing. Need a good daily driver with good speed and battery life. AOKP 4.2.2 didn't have the browser crashing.

I've had my kf for about 3 months and while i haven't flashed them all i have flashed lots of them.
Unfortunately, i haven't found any rom either with or without gapps that have the low memory/ram issue.
I have done lots of searching an just plain tinkering with everything from freezing everything possible in stock roms to only having 2 user apps installed, i.e. dolphin browser and adobe flash player.
The only thing i really want to do is to be able to let my grandson and nefews/nieces watch cartoons on the net, and maybe some simple type kids games. (This way they have their own and dont mess with mine lol)
The games I've found and installed and they work fine, but the memory on this thing is just not capable of even rudimentary multitasking.
Its a damn shame too, because just an extra 50 - 100 mb of ram would make the difference.
Wish i knew how to dev a kernel id look at the big memory kernels on the gnex and see if he same principles could be applied.

I found it in the link below in the op. Unfortunately it wasn't as stable as I remembered and I moved on to the latest cm M release. Pretty good so far, but I doubt it fully solves any problems mentioned.

Hey thanks again!
I activated halo by mistake but am not able to deactivate it. I went around the while settings panel, but couldn't find an option.
Any ideas

Ok I'm quickly tiring of my Kindle running unbearably slow at the benefit of battery life. Which Rom, any version of android, works the best on the Kindle Fire? I'm talking smooth. I'm running 4.3.1 CM 10.2 and I just can't do it anymore. If I have to downgrade to an earlier version of Android I will. I just need faster. I've got a Nexus 10 ordered, but keeping this and want it at it's best. So what's the fastest?
Here is a thanks for speeding up my rom...

I tested all the three rooms, all well.
Make sure you have the latest twrp 2.6.3.1 or you will be bricked.
Good luck
