Hey guys I just got a mint G1/Dream dev edition with nice box and bits. I have a had a few droids and thought I might go and get me some genesis.
Its great so far and will be used along side my HOX. I really loved my N1, SGS2 and Gnex but this seems like the change I need.
Any roms I should try?
Jelly Bean
Sense 2.0/Eclair
Miui
ICS
Honeycomb
Espresso/mysense
So I rooted my SGS2 so I could get ICS and the JB.
With the Nexus 4 one doesn't get that benefit so I'm thinking I may not install a custom ROM.

Not really sure what you mean. You will get Google updates as they come out and there will be custom roms.

We'll see what CM has to offer...
Not right away, but more than likely I will eventually.
100%. It's the whole point in getting a Nexus device for me.
I bought an S3 and was expecting awesome dev support, having come from a S1. The lack of Exynos documentation kills any sort of chance of good AOSP based roms for that device. S3 is now sold
Stock android is great but things like lack of T9 dialling and lack of quick toggles bug the hell out of me.
Of course. Have the last version of android is only one of the things you get with a nexus. Have the last version with a lot of addons is better. Read what aokp offer.

same for me! i have a One S and i'm tiered of waiting for a stable aosp rom
I hope some of the manufacturer skins get ported over. I honestly enjoy Sense every once in a while, and that skin LG has on the Optimus G looks pretty sweet. But I really love vanilla android and always end up running AOSP for the most part. And MIUI, big MIUI fan.
Cm10 will be available within a week or two for the n4. Perhaps even sooner than that. Android 4.2 is not a huge update. I remember when 4.1 went live, it was incorporated within a week or so. That's what I expect for cm10. Even aokp and all aosp ROMs. That's how I see it

This. I am genuinely looking forward to giving MIUI a go again! I used to love it on the S1.
With the Quad S4, I highly doubt we'll actually even see a visual difference. It'll be a placebo effect for most people.
I'm half-tempted to just run full stock since I'm getting tired of the custom ROM scene. Kernels are ok though sometimes.
I'm willing to flash a ROM but I from flashing so many ROMs on my GNex I realized that the ROM doesn't add much improvement. To notice any improvement you're gonna want to flash a kernel instead. Roms just as features, but for the real gain in battery and speed you flash the kernel. So I'm gonna wait for Franco or Morfic to get their hands on the N4 and crackflash their kernels lol.
I never felt the need to install a custom ROM on my N7, so probably not, there's not a whole lot of improvements that can be made when the N4 is already 100% pure Android, as most of the custom ROM's I've dealt with on other phones are basically trying to make it 99% pure Android. Not to mention if you get the 8GB model, performing backups will be a pain.
I like the custom ROMs, mainly cm10, because of the quick toggles, weather on lock screen, etc. A lot of tweaks are made, just like aokp, which is another good ROM. Also, apps are also tweaked, like adding iso or a timer in the camera app. A lot of good tweaks are added with custom ROMs

On my old captivate (which was running 2.1-2.3) had roms running on it left, right and centre. But once I got the gnex and ics I didnt feel a need for roms anymore as well as with jelly bean. So I probably wouldnt be using roms on the N4 either.
I don't think I will be installing a custom rom on the N4. I like the stock look which is why I rooted my Droid Incredible and flashed CM on it. Seeing as most of the stuff I use in CM 7.2 has been incorporated into the later versions of Android is another reason I probably won't flash a custom rom unless a really useful feature is added that I would want.
The first thing I'm gonna do when I get my N4 is root and flash a battery mod. :silly: I'm still kinda annoyed Google hasn't added this.
With my Infuse, I rooted and added a custom ROM because I was sick of what Samsung added to the phone. I might just keep this phone stock for a while, and enjoy the updates as they come in. I like some of the features some ROMs offered, like Paranoid, but I'll just see how everything goes stock.
Maybe not the first week or two. But after that there will be some awesome stuff. Plus I'll prolly make one for myself like I always do.
Definitely looking towards custom kernels and UV and OC scripts.
AOSP or AOKP will be flashed ASAP!
Hi guys!
I'm considering to buy the note 3 - almost there!
I was just wondering if I could replace basically all of Touchwiz and get a holo themed phone just like on the nexus devices while keeping all the Note 3 features incl. stylus features? I fear that I could grow tired of Touchwiz within a few weeks.
As of now, no. Wait a bit longer and we'll most likely see builds of Cyanogenmod on this device.

Thank you for your answer. I didnt exactly expect it to be out now working like a charm, I was just curious. But will the official CM build support the stylus as well as the features?
I just wanna ask a couple of questions guys, I know I will come across a little eager as it's very early days, but the curiosity is killing me.
What are the chances of the new touchwiz being ported to the Galaxy S4?
Is there a chance even the camera features and UI will be ported too?
Thanks.

I do.
I am not a fan of AOSP, and i dont brag around how one is better then the other.
I own both Nova and Apex premiums, from the time where i hated TW. But ever since S6, TW has changed for the good and actually suits my needs a lot more then AOSP does. I am glad people have options.
PS, there is even a Dream UX rom being cooked, it should come soon, although only for A300FU.
Man you are the best I own Galaxy A300FU.
And greeting for you on Kosovo.?
Tommorow one man realising A300FU Grace UX (Dream UX) ROM.Bye for now ?
Im yust using that rom and its the best.

Greetings from Kosovo
Nice to know people still love bloat. No wonder TouchWiz is still not dead.
