all my video reviews on youtube:

nice
nice review. i think i should upgrade to kitkat anyway :victory:

The Resurrection Remix has also evolved quite well. Do check it out too.

For a sammy rom
The last few days I've been using wizzedkat. Sammy rom from the S5 and I'm really happy with it. Straight stock and even includes samsung apps!
It's kind of retro and future all at the same time (Samsung stock and kitkat together).

i will do better reviews, this is only a preview of the roms cause its been done for xperia 2011 devices..i will update this with galaxy 2 kitkat roms and videos..im still greenie here from a long time on xperia line.
but is meant also for users participate and say from their own experiences and tests on roms.

I think you should be careful and state which variant the ROM is for. Hellkat isn't available for i9100 international AFAIK. Most people assume automatically that's what variant it is for by posting in GSII General, and may flash it on an i9100 based on that (stupid) assumption.

+1
that's true

From my experience, RR 5.0.8 (with Dorimanx kernel) is doing quite well and is very stable. It offers tons of customizations.
Some of the issues I am facing are:
a) The display turns on with the caller identity 3 secs after the phone starts ringing.
b) Gallery and Music player not detecting pics and songs from the memory card.
Hopefully, these will be addressed in the next version.

Past: beanstalk
Coming from jb I found that this one had the best customizations ever. Most of the things worked superbly, and the performance and battery time were really high too. Faced 2 issues though -
1. Google keyboard didn't work. So used touchpal coz I really loved the ROM at that time.
2. When plugged on for charging, phone will go entirely crazy. Won't respond properly to touches, unlocks, notifications and esp swype will just die. The moment it's unplugged of the charger, it's back to normal.
The 2nd bug was quite an issue so I moved to pacman ROM. It didn't have halo but smoothness and customizations are on high here. Was quite happy with it but after few days of normal usage started showing the same phone-going-crazy-while-charging issue.
I have tested 2 kitkat ROMs so far. Wanted to know whether it's a kk bug or ROM bug?
And yeah, all the installations were completely clean.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app

new roms added..WIP so all roms gonna be updated..im testing now some and newer versions released.:good:

Kitkat Rom #3/4:
SlimKat/SlimSaber -Found both of them very similar.
As the name suggests its really slim. Without any apps installed from my side the rom takes only 350 MB Ram which leaves a lot of room available.
1. Camera works fine.
2. So does the music player.
3. Low on customizations (compared to other ROMs) e.g. other KK roms have a lot of lock screen, navigation bar etc customizations which were not found here.
4. A very simple file explorer.
5. Simple, Neat & Elegant.
6. No inbuilt Screen recorder
7. No performance controls like other ROMs.
Though i found the same issue I had with my previous KK roms i.e. phone-going-crazy-and-laggy-while-charging so did not keep it for a long time. And hence wont be able to comment anything on battery stats.
I will still recommend it to the lite users but people who look for customizations and performance control features from ROM, will have to keep looking.
Also, I forgot to mention that on all the KK roms I have seen, gameplay was laggy. I dont play any heavy games, it was just temple run 2.
Kitkat Rom #5:
OMNI rom:
1. Quite smooth
2. Had a lot of customizations (more than slim roms and less than pacman/beanstalk/carbon etc)
3. Looked good and stable
4. Did not keep it for a long time so cant comment on battery life.
5. Had I seen it earlier I am sure I would be on it for a long time but I am accustomed to high customizations now so moving on.
6. Was a little higher on RAM usage (towards 500 Mb without any apps installed from my side)
Kitkat Rom #6:
Carbon ROM:
1. Beautiful & Sleek UI.
2. Carbon fibers i.e. really good customizations/options.
3. little higher on RAM usage (towards 500 Mb without any apps installed from my side)
4. Had to uninstall it in an hour itself as it became quite laggy and started giving me "unfortunately, **** has stopped working" messages for a lot of applications. Even whatsapp was force closing.
So all this charade, and I am back to Beanstalk (22/12/2013 build) now and I dont think I want to try more. Will have to live with laggy gameplay and response-issues-while-charging if I want KK i guess.

What about CM 11 ?

I think the CM11 Linaro/SaberMod Version by Markox89 is also worth a mention. It feels very stable and I have the feeling, that battery life (with the supplied kernel) is also better compared to the (un)official CM11 nightlies.

I think the Cm 11 has a front camera issue.. Haven't used it myself, read it at a lot of places in Cm forums

hej
I use Beanstalk 4.4.2 rom and i am very satisfied

I use SlimKat and I find it very good!

Running on Slimsaber and a Dormianx Kernel is working fine for me

Of all the roms I have tried so far, beanstalk was the best. I feel your happiness dude :laugh:
But due to few annoying bugs I had to start the journey of experiments all over again.

MIUI v4 Discussion Thread

As we all know, the Galaxy Note was recently added for official MIUI support. MIUI China is working towards a first public build. Contrary to popular belief, MIUI v4 is based on the Stock ROMs rather than CyanogenMod 9. So, almost everything should be working flawless from the start -- as it was supposed to be. All in all, we can look forward to the looks of MIUI and the functionality of Stock ROMs.
According to the latest polls, 4x5 icon layout has been chosen as the default which is rather perfect for the Note's large screen. Here's the screenshot from the tweet...

What's interesting to note is the S Memo icon! Although, that was expected since MIUI is based on stock Sammy ROMs, yet it's nice to have a "confirmation".
We'll also have the emmc bug then...
Though I won't be able to go to another ROM that doens't have per app DPI/Layout ever again...
what does it say about the emmc brickbug? will they have MMC_CAP_ERASE removed for safety?
also I guess that this means MIUI4 can no longer be considered AOSP ,since it's using TW as abase.
should be interesting though ,keep us posted please
Guess they are using lq2 base with rooted cf kernel.
but we can flash franco kernel etc. id wait for miui scotlands version of the official rom as they make it really better for samsung devices
^^ Exactly! I suppose we would be able to flash SpeedMod/Franco Kernel. So, we'll be safe from the eMMC bug to a certain extent -- of course, if we follow the instructions.
I'm excited because we get to retain all the stock goodness! I'm using PA myself and it'll be rather hard to switch to any other ROM. However, I'm a long time fan of MIUI and will definitely switch once it's available in all it's goodness.
Also, the MIUI theme contest which is going on right now should give us some great themes, which is lacking ATM.
love how they're asking the community what they want in the rom; how it should be done. only weak link is samsung, how a multi-million dollar company is out-shined by the dev community never ceases to amuse me xD.

I don't think fb is the best place to get feedback. End users don't necessarily understand the concepts of developing or porting a ROM. Will try and push this thread to them, once it picks up activity.

of course we can flash a safe kernel ,but it would be nice if they released their own optimized safe kernel to begin with.
and yes I also think it would be interesting to see MIUI4 based on TW ,hopefully it won't have lagging or memory management issues like official ICS does.

Don't expect much in the Kernel department. Everybody always switches MIUI Kernels ASAP mostly because they're not optimized for performance/battery. They're mostly just optimized to run.

oh ,I didn't know that ,your MIUI V4 port was the first (brief) encounter with MIUI for me.
and since it was based on cm9 kernel it was actually very smooth.
here is hoping the real MIUI port is at least just as good

The official port should have a butter-smooth launcher just like MiHome for ICS.

seeing that you are a long tie MIUI fan ,may I ask you what's so good about it?
when I tested your port the positive side was a feel of elegance ,and total customization even more than CM9.
the bad side however was the iOS look of the launcher which I hate so much,and the lack of an app drawer.
luckily the launcher can be easily replaced ,and since this is based on TW ,I can switch to it to retain full functionality ,while (hopefully) not draining all my RAM like the official sammy ROMs does.
so care to enlighten me to more positive points of this popular ROM ,ones that I won't find in CM9 (beside the TW functionality obviously).
thank you
Even I hate the fact that the launcher doesn't have an app drawer but there is an app for that -- MIUI Control -- it gives you a pull down app-drawer.
The best thing about MIUI is the fact that you can theme pretty much every aspect of the ROM with a click of a button. That's not the case with CM9. There aren't many themes for MIUI v4 as of now, however that will change in the near future.
Also, with MIUI you have the option to apply individual elements of different themes -- and then combine them into one theme file. That alone makes it the best ROM for theming.

exactly ,that pretty much sums what I know about MIUI from my ~1 hour trial with it
good to know that there is an app drawer ,can't stand a combined view of apps and widgets.
thanks again
I've already ask them about the removing of the emmc-bug in their kernel here and on their "what device should get miui next?" poll. Without any answer.

I asked them on their facebook page but forgot to check back on the answer lol
I have been using MIUI for more than a year on my HD2, which I have sold to get Galaxy Note. I can tell you that the nicest thing about MIUI roms is the notification bar on top. I don't understand why all ROMs don't have this notification / control panel that MIUI has.
No more widgets to turn on bluetooth, wifi or toggle between 2g and 3g to save battery. You just pull down the curtain, and switch everything on or off easily. So this is what I miss most on other ROMs.
The rest, its a very fast and smooth mobile OS. Simple to use, lots of themes and frequent updates with new features and bug fixes.
Not sure how well it will handle the S Pen, as this is one of the features that separate G.Note from the rest of the competition, but if they manage to get everything working well, I am sure that it will be a great success.
^^ Agreed. The main thing I like about MIUI is that it is a complete experience right off the bat. You get...
1. File Explorer
2. Backup
3. Monitor
4. Blacklist
...and so much more! Of course you can install all these separately for other ROMs but it's nice to know that they're all packaged with MIUI.
And yes, it would be great if they manage to retain all the S-Pen functionality. With custom ROMs we lose this functionality which then makes our phone like any other. Don't get me wrong, I love myself some PA/CM9/AOKP goodness, but then my phone doesn't feel any different from the S2 I had.

well the Spen still works in CM9 ,just without the Snote app ,have you tried installing photoshop touch? you get absolute control with the pen .
did you know that hovering the pen gives you a mouse cursor in CM9 ,while touching it will register a click ,just like a desktop PC .
but of course it will be nice tom have MIUI with all TW functionality ,IF they keep the performance a priority

Awesome indeed!
waiting for detail
Looks great.
Initial thoughts:
Performance doesn't seem optimal yet (at least compared to the N4), the notification drawer is choppy on the home screens and transitions don't always run smoothly.
Default hybrid settings are off, for instance the browser doesn't show an address bar by default.
It needed a reboot to see my sim card, not a major issue and probaly an isolated case.
Also, pie can't be turned off?
Overal a great first build!

I haven't had the chance to try out the camera, and just flashed Cyanogenmod (mainly because of the drawer issue). I don't expect it to be any better or worse than on the CM builds though.

Preformance seems good toe coming firm a nexus 7, I haven't enabled any of my optimizations yet though so it will get better. Never used a nexus 4 but it has all my options turned on. Yea I did hybrid props quickly but you can customize to taste. My sim works most of the time. If usb is plugged in at boot the radio may not come up, it happens on stock also. Pie should be able to be disabled.

Yes, it is an officially supported device and yes it's not a nexus. 1 it was donated by oppo that's a good enough reason. 2. It will be supported primarily by the jellybean legacy branches. I'm not sure of your aware but we have official builds for the tf300 and a s3 variant as well. We can only support nexus devices we don't own cause the code is there and working. It is impossible to properly support a device you don't own.

Great to know it is official, i tempted to grab one after i tried the find5 demo unit and heard will have PA support, because i can't live without PA hybrid system . my sister owns S3 and once installed PA rom, but thanks to Samsung for entirely opens it's source forced me switched back to official rom.
Yes i know nexus devices are the best for devs, poweruser or just a casual themer like me and they have the most dev support and it's all open source. The best thing is Oppo users will get weekly updates also recently joined open source project love, that means you will receive all you need to develop Find right? Since oppo officially gives you the phone
Aaron, how do you think about this phone personally? After camera issues fixed i will certainly buy one.
Now i use PA as daily driver for all my devices, i9250 (thanks to new PA team BigBrother1984 and you), N4 by Mole, and the awesome N7 which is also managed by you, thank you.

I love it, the size took some getting used to (coming from a 4.3), but now me other device feels small. speakers build quality everything is top notch. The camera software needs a lot of work as this is the same sensor in the gs4 and xperia z and they produce better shots, but camera software takes lots of time so hopefully it will get better. Oppo has been open not quite sony level but certainly helpful.

The "What is the Best or Favorite ROM/Kernel" Roll Up Thread

This is the "What is the Best or Favorite ROM or Kernel" Roll Up Thread.
It has been decided recently after much debate that creating comparison threads can have the potential to be useful and informative for the members of this website.
So in lieu of all the threads being created asking the questions, "What is the best rom? or "What is the best kernel?" for the OnePlus One device, this thread has been created.
All other threads with these same topics are allowed now as preferred by the owners of this website.
Thread Rules
1. No Flaming and no arguing. Everybody has a favorite.
2. No one is allowed to talk negatively about ROMs and/or developers or a development team. In other words, there will be no discussions about what you dislike about a certain ROM or developer.

5. No profanity.
Please keep it clean and cordial.
My best wisdom on this subject is to always make backups, wipe clean, try new ROM, then rinse and repeat
This is the advice I would give anyone searching for the best custom ROMs xda has to offer. Having said that I'm very keen to slim ROMs on all my devices
[Q] ROM Recommendations?
So i just order my OPO a few days ago and have decided ill be rooting and getting at ak kernel but i cant figure out which rom to choose. So i'd like to here from everybody that has the different roms so i can make an informed decision. And as a reference for anybody making a recommendation i listed a few things that are important to me.
Currently leaning towards Color OS because of the camera.
Things Important to me in a rom:
1. Speed.
2. Touch Responsiveness since ive heard a few different things about CM11s with ghost touching and not beng able to keep up with fast typing.
3. Customizability. need a feature rich rom.
4. Stability. Would like a ROM that proven to not have too many bugs but its not a deal breaker if it does.
Thanks in advance.
Ok, I'll bite. While I don't believe any ROM is better than the other, I've been running crDroid for a few weeks now and when used in conjunction with the AK kernel I get excellent performance and battery life. It has all the features that I like in a custom ROM and is rock solid in terms of stability.
The very best and most accurate way for any person to find out which ROM is best for them though is to do testing of their own, everybody has their own taste and their own needs.

In your opinion how are the customazations compared to other CM based roms and any issues with screen responsiveness?

The screen responsiveness is perfect, it contains all of the latest touchscreen drivers. The customisations are at the same level as any other ROM. It isn't really fair to compare though, that might be seen as commenting negatively about the other ROMs.

How long is your battery life?
I'm currently using Sabbermodded Slim with ak kernel. I haven't installed ukm or synapse to alter anything.
I am on my phone a lot throughout the day. On way to work I'm always using Google maps or navigon along with music etc. Always on the internet etc.
Do you use your phone a lot and get good battery life?
CM nightly as it gets updates/fixes fast. AK kernel to fix touchscreen and improve battery life. Sideload the DSP and Camera from CM11S if you want the 4K etc.

Nah no adjustments, my maximum frequency is still set to 2.5gHz, but I've lowered my minimum to 268mHz, I don't think that makes all that much difference though.

CM11S 33R with Franco r19
I was one of the users that reverted to CM11S 25R stock after having high battery drain on 33R stock. Took the chance yesterday and upgraded back to 33R but with the addition of the Franco r19 kernel. Excellent combination! No issues so far. Great responsiveness and battery life (6-10 mA idle).
I see a lot of you guys are picking your favorite ROM based on battery life.
I'm more concerned about smooth scrolling. I love Android, but the scrolling is hella jittery despite what the max frequency or governor is.
However, my favorite ROM is Slim Kat/SlimSaber on the stock kernel. And CM11S being runner-up. Also, stock kernels seem to be wayyyy more responsive/snappier than all aftermarket kernels.
All my other devices are running CM11 with the Hexa theme pack, so you can guess what my OnePlus One is running The only complaint I have about CM11s is that I don't have anything to tinker with except rooting :/ I almost wish CM11s had nightlies so I could flash something every now and then.
I guess I'll go wipe my cache partition just in case...

Why not just run CM11 instead?

I am very happy with Mahdi on my OPO. It has all the bells and whistles of full featured custom rooms and is rock solid. The combination of Mahdi with smooth scrolling mod, Franco kernel and vomer tweaks gives me a fast and responsive phone with excellent battery life...

The thought has crossed my mind. One of these days I'm sure I will.
Rooted this phone the day I got it (4 days ago). Been using LiquidSmooth since then and just now installed franco kernel, seems like ghost touches are gone? Hopefully an increment on battery life. Enjoying this right now!

Just to not let this post die, I like pretty much Stock
Besides, every ROM have different things, and depends on the users to catch'em all! (Wild Pokémon theme song suddently appears)
I think that you'll have to compromise on battery and performance with this phone. It's hard to have both performing well. I will only run stock based roms because they offer the best compromise. Lexodus rom with Stellar kernel along with Xposed and Greenify gave me the best all around. Lexodus and Stellar alone made the phone scream but did hurt the battery performance a little.

I find Minimal OS very stable and smooth. I have been using it around 20 days and observed no FCs as of yet. Battery backup is very good. In addition, I manually set CPU governors to improve the backup. I don't play much of games, but Hay day runs very smooth on this ROM, just the way it runs on stock. Talking about customizations, this ROM supports Layers, hence you can download the Layers themes from play store and customize the ROM.

Yes I'm also using that one and I like it so far. Haven't tried any other than stock rom though. It got all the additions I need to be happy. Except vibration adjustments.
Ps.: When I change dpi setting to a lower dpi, the font and everything gets smaller. Which confuses my brain . I mean, shouldnt lower dpi mean lower resolution therefore bigger font etc.?

You could try sokp, its a very stable rom with tons of features and customisation options while stille being smooth. Battery backup is not the best but i get through my day with regular use. Since its aosp you can flash custom kernels made for cm12.1 and aosp. But in my experience it slowed my device down so yeah... Atm it has no xposed compatebility because it has an heavily customized ART, plus its based on android 5.1.1r10 i believe. Extra features are multi window and slim recents and a lot more. I'm realy pleased with it but it may or may not be for you .
Best of luck,

I agree with you concerning this ROM overall. I used it for a couple of weeks and was very impressed with it. Compared to a half dozen other ROM'S I have tried it won hands down. However, I ran into a glitch with a critical app upon which I rely for my job and unfortunately I had to go back to AOSP. I doubt that the problem will be resolved since the app is a very specialized app that most users on this site won't ever use.
Given that, I am extremely happy with 5.1.1 AOSP and would give it my number 1 rating. It is stable, smooth, responsive and the battery life a fairly decent.. And ALL of my apps work well with it.

Sure! It's Jobulator, which is a substitute teacher job assignment app. I sub-teach in the local school district and all potential jobs come through that app. It is set to a given interval (by the user) to check for new jobs that teachers have posted. When a job is listed it will give an alert notification and (ideally) I can then accept or reject the job. However with Minimal OS I would get the alarm but only a blank screen, (no "accept/reject" buttons). It took a while to show up since the first two weeks of school I was able to accept on my tablet and desktop (strictly by luck). But in several instances I was away from home. Consequently I was unable to accept some jobs before another sub grabbed them. So I went back to AOSP-luk and have had no issues.
In all honesty, I have never been dissatisfied with AOSP but the fact that Minimal has less bloat appealed to me so I tried it out. I see no difference in performance, battery life or stability with either ROM, just the issue mentioned above makes AOSP the winner for me.

Stock 5.0.2 debolated with xposed. or BlissPOP v4.0
Infinitive OS, excellent performance. Nice battery backup( 2 days of normal use, 4:30 hr of SOT, half WiFi, half 3g, it also sleeps like a baby). Only one bug, sometimes you can't wake up the phone with the block key, not a problem if you choose to wake it up with volume keys and after that block key works again. It just happens randomly.

I also tried Resurrection Remix. It is loaded with tons of features and customizations. It runs good but I faced some minor glitches randomly, so I would say not as smooth as Cyanogenmod or AOSP. Battery performance is better than stock, close to cyanogenmod, but not as good as AOSP. Plus, on my personal view, I feel that lots of customizations kind of ruined the overall look for the ROM. You can't get the look of stock Android on this ROM. There and bold and italic fonts are used in the ROM which hampers the overall look and visual experience, but this is actually no problem as this ROM supports Cyanogenmod theme engine.

I'd say "stability" rather than "quality". Quality is subjective and I think the quality of CM apps (excluding camera) are preferable to LG.

Yeah. Camera has improved a lot on CM recently. The only advantages to stock now are:
Laser Autofocus (quicker focussing)
4K recording
Slo-mo video
I think that's it now. Actual quality of shots is pretty much on par.
Is Cm13 stable and safe to install? I think i read some brick questions in CM13 thread about bug or somethink else i cant remember.
Yeah the quality of the shots do look good on CM for me, its another story for low light, but then again, that's not a strength of the hardware right? The IR blaster works for me on CM with Peel Smart Remote. I like the look of the LG Setup, personally I like it with the Materialistik icon pack. Every time I go back to an LG ROM I just go back to CM.

Officially it's not yet classified as "stable" but I've been using it since January and with the exception of a few bugs like connecting to Bluetooth fitness trackers and the volume, both of which are now fixed, my experience has been excellent.
There was a lot of talk about an EMMC bug going around but that seems to only affect people whose last official ROM was KitKat (4.4).
To avoid it (and this hasn't been confirmed but is widely recognised as the way to prevent it) boot to recovery, do a full wipe in TWRP 2.8.7, flash the stock LG Marshmallow ROM, boot and go through the motions, shutdown, boot to recovery, full wipe, flash CM13 and GAPPS. Enjoy.

Yeah I think the low light issue is there on LG and CM. I guess the laser focus on LG Stock helps with focusing in low light but there's no noticeable difference in the quality of the final image between LG and CM.

That's OK. I don't know huge amounts about the EMMC bug, I don't think anyone really does.
By "go through the motions" I just meant install the ROM and go through the setup - timezone, WiFi, etc...
As far as I know the bug is due to the different way Lollipop and Marshmallow are partitioned from KitKat.
Just make sure you use TWRP and remember to wipe

Hard to say because different factors can affect it and I'm what I'd call an intermittent user - pick it, put it down, etc - but so far today I've used nearly 50% in the past 7.5 hours including 1.5 hours of screentime (1 hour of which was playing a graphics intensive game on a fairly high brightness).

Thanks a lot mate. Just installed over 6.0 Stock KDZ and works perfect. And i love it! Since i've been a Nexus user since Gnexus, CM gone better and better. Probably i'll never go back stock again. UI is super smooth and light as a feather. I hope i dont encounter weird bugs.

In theory yes. Lollipop was my last official LG build and I've not had any issues.

I was on Marshmallow and after full wipe I have installed cm-13 nightly and (for now) everything works fine.
I use only 2 days stock Marshmallow - only system takes 1.4 GB RAM, but CM takes only 750MB. Battery live is for me better on CM as on stock and when I use android, It's going much more faster as on stock.
For me, I will not return to stock.
