The most stable rom I know of is the Omega rom, it's not only
stable but it has all the bells and whistles anyone would want
in a custom rom.
Good luck!

Dont give him this advice. Almost every rom there is stable.
There is a reason that these questions are not allowed on XDA because he should just try it for himself.
Try Them Out
I personally found all roms stable, even the CM Beta releases.
However the developers always mention bugs etc. so you should try them out.
I personally ended up installing the stock , installed the xposed framework .
So far I've tried Foxhound, Wanam Lite and Omega. All TW based. Have to say that all of them were really quite stable. I personally prefer Omega though, it seems to be updated very regularly.
Stock rom is the most stable rom. Nothing beats it. :thumbup:

Hello all, this is my first post and I have some queries. As we all know the new Samsung firmware JP2 has many bugs like Swype not working, Battery draining very fast etc. I want to know which is most stable ROM which doesn't have these problems.
I don't want to try any custom ROM because of overclocked processor as it will short it's life and void the warranty. I am thinking to flash the JPN ROM but though to get advice before doing anything. I hope it won't have any effect if I use European firmware as I am from India. I am currently using JP6.
I think you should be using Kyrillos' ROM. It's very stable.
Opt for a non-overclocked custom, you won't regret it If you really want to stay using stock roms, i'd suggest JPM/JPN.

Try the new European release....XWJPF. Its a very stable rom. And no bugs. I am from india too. Its working flawless on my galaxy 3.
DDJG6>DDJP2>Kryillos 4.1>XWJPF
Using Kitchen v1.0 to create a new ROM with your feature do you want.

I'm testing it. Let's go with me.
customs are a balance and trade off
well stock ROM may be the most stable but from my experience of experimentations with different roms, and i've tried many roms, if you are thinking of intalling many applications then stock roms are just useless as you would get blank/black screens too often in the stock Tw launcher as the applications try to load from SD card, where you will have to install them for want of space. so if you want to try lot of applications you will have to go for a custom rom with ext2/ext4 support. after trying many custom roms i've finally stopped at POX v 1.0 non oc. Its silky smooth and thats after installation of more than 43 third party apps/games, though you will have to live with some minor glitches which you wont mind. Yes stay away from OC versions as they drain your battery and freeze your phone. The hardware (processor) structure if galaxy3 if not designed for overclocking though it may be overclocked.
XWJPF + go launcher ex
perfect combination..no lags blazingly fast
(oh yes i,ve also rooted my phone and have set cpu.. , so maybe thats y..still XWJPF...no problems)
i have JPM and thinking of moving to XWJPN.
how is it that JPM is pre-rooted if it is official samsung firmware?
I think you should be using Kyrillos' ROM too. It's very stable.
Samsung engineers aren't idiots or fools.. JP2 is d most stable ROM for this phone. I have used custom roms and trust me..there ain't any ROM more stable.

Then i think you should try using the latest European firmware, XWJPF. Its far better than DDJP2. Trust me.
Lol JP2 has many bugs including battery draining issue. How come it is more stable?
Confused between multiple opinions. Might add a poll soon.
If you were to use custom roms, use the Non oc version by Kyrillos. From all the roms that i have tried (there have been many), i have found Kyrillos to be the best.
If you were to use regular Firmwares, the best i believe is either JPF or JPM. A lot of them out there still support JPF, while the constant flashers would recommend the JPM
BTW...Kyrillos is based on JPM
XXJPM by Kyrillos, safe flash and very stable
No worries, I think I have the perfect solution for you... In a few minutes I'll be posting my ROM, which is exactly what you need - because I made this ROM for I had the same problems as you!
Also, I'm writing this, coz I want to post it in the development section but I need 10 posts for that...
There are a lot of ROMs and as far as I see, you should try more then one, because everybody likes a different version...
Yeah, so here I am again. Uploaded, you might even try it - see if the problems go away!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079052
Now don't mind using any custom ROM if it is stable and good to use.
Poll added just to solve some confusion between multiple choices.
InDroid
InDroid v4 looks good n is going to be released soon
i would prefer non OC as it is more stable but u can look for OC as well!
Allthough I use my own custom ROM, I vote for Kyrillos's ROM because it's very stable and fast. I use it for a long period and I was very pleased.
Kyrillos ROM is not only stable, but gives you the choise of OC or Non OC capability!
hello ..
I tried several custom roms on my SGY, but many have bugs and other bad things ...
which rom you guys recommend me to put on my SGY (not like odex) (I like Deodex)
and also see people say that Stock Kernel which is bad recommend placing?
i'm noob!
all features have a proper explaination,
they are also available when you search in google,
stock kernel is fine and works really well,
there are just added features present in custom kernels,
there is a difference between odex and deodex (you can google that)
there is clearly no rom which is perfect without bugs...you can stick to stock if you want a bug free rom
For me. You should stick with your stock rom. But if you're a little techy and you want an os that is not compatible with our SGY, try out Custom Roms. I recommend Nemesis Rom hd v1.1. It has bugs but devs already have a solution. Just google it

I suppose you are not the marketing head of nemesis.
That rom is banned for a reason and you are not allowed to talk anything about it. It is not an os made compatible with our phone, it is indeed a themed version of stock rom.

you said u'r noob, then no reason for you to like deodexed over odexed.
So anybody here want to share what's the most stable custom kitkat 4.4.2 your using now, with less bug and fast.

1. If you want a rom with All In One S5 N3 S4 N2 apps and various tweaks then Tamirda's PhoeniX V18.5/18.8 is best option...you will not maiss anything there
2. If you want Stock N3+N2 then Dr Ketans rom is best
3. If you want N2+S5 only then MrLuong' s rom is best and themed (it has great battery life because of lite ver. and black theme)
4. If you want other than this then try DN3 or Phantom
I am CURRENTLY using PhoeniX and its greatest!

Cyanogen Mod is definitely not pure android. There are many many additional features not present in AOSP. Also it has a custom kernel which sets it apart even more. Nice try
Dr.Ketan ROM V7 is my 3rd rom.. a bit buggy but still a best rom from all rom i have tried.. now downloading the Dr.Ketan Custom control ROM V7.1..
Dr Ketan got V7.1 now

As someone metioned here. All depends on whta you want in your phone. All ROMs here are great and I have tested few of them. For me I look for the lightest RAM consuming ROM with Aircommand . I can say Phantom and X-Tream are the best for what I want.
Phantom rom have note 3 apps like snote etc? How about stability?

This type of question/topic is not allowed. There is no such thing as best or most stable.
Try the roms and find out what is best/most stable for you.
Mod Edit
"Best" or "Recommend" ROM/kernel threads are not allowed on XDA.
Please test these things for yourself.
This is the only way you will get an unbiased opinion,and then, you can decide for yourself if it meets YOUR needs.
Don't forget to make a nandroid before you start.

Hi there ,
I"ve had enough with Samsung stock , the 4.2.2 is a complete disaster and I want to get rid of it ASAP.
I was sure I'll find some CM stable rom but looking on their WeSite , I see none.
what am I missing?
Is there a good stable kitKat ROM for my I9500?
Thank you very much for your help

Yes in some cases you can try another kernel.
