I have a modded stock TW and CM11 on multi-boot and would like suggestions of any really different and interesting additional ROMs to set up under multiboot.
The TW is my daily, and the CM11 is pretty good also, so the other one(s) could have some functions not working if they are unique and worth trying.
Thread closed as its basically a best ROM thread.
Why don't you go into the development forums, open some threads then download the ROM or ROM's you are interested in and try them?

Hi guys, I have been looking in the Android development part of the forum for a week now and I need help in finding the ROM suitable for me. I have flashed about eight roms in the past week and i can't find the 'one'
I need your help
I'm looking for a ROM that looks like a nexus device (UI), I have tried the Google Edition but it was too laggy, but I want to be able to customise the device fully with pre-built settings like CyanogenMod or ProBAM. For example, I don't like the stock messaging app on the Google Edition ROMS, I actually prefer the TW layout, and so it would be nice to customise that. I also want a ROM that doesn't take up too much storage, so I am future proofed, and finally I want a ROM that has good battery life.
I like the look of CyanogenMod but there aren't any stable releases and there are only nighty builds, which I'm apprehensive about, because my phone is my daily driver. I'm also confused about people saying get CyanogenMod 10.2 instead of 10.1, but when I go to the Wiki page, there is no mention of 10.1 or 10.2...?
it would be great if someone could help me

Hi
I have a question to you.
Which one 4.4.X ROM for SGS3 is the best?
There is a lot of Kit Kat Based custom ROMs threads but it's hard to choose the best one.
Do they support ART runtime?
So help me and recommend me the one.
best rom threads are not allowed at xda ..try them yourself..
here you go heres a list

Thread closed as its a Best ROM thread.
OP please do not be lazy, what works best fr someone else may not work best for you due to differences in how you use the device. The only way to find out what works best for you is to try different ROM's.
I just got my Note 3 and I'm wondering what ROMs I should give a spin.
I tend to like MIUI roms as I had on my note 1, but also paranoid android is really fast and unbloated, I was also wondering what ROMs conserve multiwindow and s-pen features, maybe only samsung based ROMs have those. So yeah, what ROMs do you guys deem worthy?
Try them and see for your self.
I'm on Alliance 4.3, great battery, super smooth, I'm not going to update KitKat anytime soon.
Some are on 4.4 KitKat, they can maybe say a few words.
Why is ROM development so stumped? I thought I'd have TONS of ROMs to choose from like on my Note 1

Most important is that the roms and kernels that are out there are all very good You have sammy based roms, AOKP/AOSP and CM11, what more do you want? Plus you have Xposed framework to modify what you want.
I'm with CEPi - I run Alliance, Lean kernel and Philz Touch recovery. As stated it is a 4.3 based ROM so you'd need to see what your phone is as stock. If you're on 4.3, keep in mind if you go KK (4.4) you will be unable to come back. Also if your 4.3 is vMJ7 or above, you WILL blow the Knox counter by rooting, Custom ROM'ing or custom recovery.
If you're on KK already then you are restricted to the KK ROM's - like CEPi I can't comment on them as I see no reason to install a new ROM when Alliance is fast, stable & great battery.
Used X-note, now testing FlexKat.
The entire Dev section consists of roms of someone's choice. Ofcourse, some people prefer a certain rom, some don't. At the end, it is entirely up to you to decide what you like, and this can only be achieved by trying them yourself.
If you need a starting point, most rom's can be classified into two categories, aosp-based and touchwiz-based. You can try one or two on either side to see which category your preference falls in, and then try out some other options in that category.
On that note, thread closed as we do not allow such type of threads here, since they often snowball into heated arguments over personal preference.
Thread Closed.

Hey guys I'm interested in flashing my sprint GS4 and was wondering in your opinion what is the best 4.4.2 AOSP ROM. It is very important that this ROM is stable. Thanks

If it is unlocked and your using a GSM sim from another carrier than you got more than just stable rom to worry about. You need to do some additional steps to get dialer and calls working on AOSP but if you are just using it on sprint CDMA than you are fine and can just flash Slim Rom which I think is most stable of all of them. Gummy is great. Another thing you gotta keep in mind is that you should flash the supported gapps that the developer mentions in rom thread because if you flash wrong Gapps version that can cause instability. Slim roms has always been stable for me and use it with small gapps which is just 56mb. Slim roms is actually 4.4.4 which is even better than 4.4.2

Sorry, "Best" ROM threads are not allowed on this development site. Members are expected to do the research and read through the ROM threads to decide and pick what "may" be best for them. Bugs and fixes members come across will be found in those threads. Asking opinions like this will only get you a list of what everyone is running...no real information...all of that only comes with research. Best advice anyone can give you is to make a backup and flash. Try one out that you think is best for you for a day or two...don't like it? Flash another. But always always always backup before flashing anything.

Hello
I am new to installation of custom ROMS. I own a Galaxy S5 900F version. I want to install a very smooth and stable ROM on my phone. Can anyone guide me of which ROM should i install? and is it safe?
For me SOKP,TeamNoctrunal, or Ownrom
i would suggest you to try them out yourself to find which is most stable for you mate, good luck. (and yes it is safe)
That's an answer that's different for everyone. I swear by CM ROMS, but my best friend says he has nothing but bad luck with them, and we have the same device.
I just wanted to know by people's experiences. because trying different will require a lot of time and data backing up restoring again and again.
Try Them out and find your best Rom.

For me, Official CyanogenMod 12.1 nightlies are great. I haven't tested anythnig else because CM works fine on my device : stable, great battery life, etc...
This is an development thread ask your question in S5 Q&A, help or troubleshooting. This is a thread for devs posting there unified mods and unified roms.
If you want AOSP you should try official CM12.1 from here:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=klte
If you want a modded stock rom you can try _alexndr rom from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2813628
Or djb77 roms from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3138583
If you want Xposed framework on a modded stock rom you need a deodexed rom like _alexndr rom or choose djb77 rom there you can choose Xposed from the aroma installer.
I was on XtreStoLite rom but it's outdated at the moment so better to use another one. I tried also _alexandr rom and it's also very good one. Now I'm on CM12.1 and I like it very much. So I advice you to try CM12.1 and if you don't like it try djb77. And I prefer Boeffla kernel (the beta version) there is a version for CM12.1 and for TW.
Boeffla kernel for CM:

1) This is the development section, does it in any way shape or form resemble a Q&A forum? We have a separate Q&A forum for a reason, can you guess what that reason is?
2) Try some and find out. What is "best" or "most stable" type of questions are not allowed on XDA. "best" or "most stable" is subjective, nobody can answer the question except you.

Personally i dont lic stock android so i dont like CM
CM is gud to have a better understanding about a google update early
But once samsung give their updates touchwiz is more good for me
Well, its not about just being stable, but about having stable features, and cm is not very good in that way, it is stable, but has very little features, so stock samsung rom all the way, especially now, when samsung will be releasing android 5.1.1 update very soon.
Well I think that people mainly say CM "used to be" stable, because they changed their development cycles from fixed (i.e. having RELEASE versions) to rolling (only MONTHLY). Apart from that I think its a matter of taste really.. personally I would consider most Android systems "unstable" cause you'll always get the occasional crash compared to e.g. an ubuntu LTS server.
