Differences Between Purity And Rastakat - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i was just wondering if there are any notable software differences/goals between Purity 4.4.1 and Rastakat 4.4.1. Both look like very good Roms and have a tough time deciding which one would be better suited for me.

Try them both and find out.

Carbon vs liquidsmooth

Planning on flashing one of these ROMs (or another if you can suggest a better one) but not sure which to go for. Now I know there is no best ROM but if you can explain the differences then at east I can make an educated decision (as I know these 2 are branches from what were once 1 group of developers.) I tend to prioritise battery, customisation and smoothness and must also be stable for daily use.
Thanks in advance

You really couldn't separate them on performance, stability & battery. I think carbon has more frequently updated nightlies. Features? Both packed.
So I can't really loose then?

Comparing latest PA with 4.3 stock

Has any one compared latest PA 4.3 with OTA stock 4.3?
Thanks in advance

There are a couple of bugs which are stated in the OP of PA and I'm getting a touch of stuttering here and there but the features of PA make up for that. If you're concerned about stability then just wait a week or so before flashing.

Compared about what?. Battery life, performance, tweaks, customizations...?.
Compared about those things youve just mentioned, and about stability in total..

[Q] Best Kernel for Project KitKat (KRT16S)?

I was curious if there was a really good kernel for my ROM that I could flash over. That's all!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Franco Kernel and it's companion app is great. So is Faux Kernel and it's companion app.
It's still too early to say, all the kernels are still just taking baby steps with 4.4.

All the above suggested kernels plus AK.207.KK and hells-Core-b42-t4. Each of all the above is a GREAT kernel.
Flash any of them, configure it to your own preferences. Try it for a few days or longer. From the assessment (performance/battery life/smoothness/etc) you'll determine which kernel works BEST for you.

I have. And I still think it's going to take a few iterations until the kernel makers really start optimizing their product.

Best ROM for the nexus 4?

I just bought nexus device. My old phone was s3 mini and since I used cyanogenmod whole time I'm asking which ROM based on stock Android is best for it.
Guessing that we have official releases of all Roms because this phone is just awesome it will be harder to choose

Actually Nexus 4 doesn't have more ROMs than Galaxy S3 for instance. Most developers moved to Nexus 5
Haven't tried all of them, but they are all mostly similar in terms of performance, it's the customization that is different in each ROM.
I'm on PA 4+ because it's the closest thing in terms of Stability to STOCK rom
There is no "best" ROM out there. All have there ups and downs. Threads like these are no allowed on XDA
