[Q] AOSP Roms are stable now? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was using Mahdi, Paranoid, CM11 and much other roms based in AOSP.
But I always had battery and stability problem.
These bugs were fixed now? Because I love original android look.
I am using Cloudy Flex 2.2 with fantastic battery life of 5 hour screen time and 26 hours of usage.

I know ive been using cm for awhile still a litle buggy but not as bad as it used to be

Return to stock ROM

Any avid flashers go back to stock ROM and stay there? I flip flop between CM and aospa frequently and I'm considering going back to stock. Id think that Google optimised the stock ROM for the Nexus 4. Any comments. Ive always used custom roms

I haven't stayed there on the N4, my GN lived on stock for the last couple of months I used it.
That said if CM didn't exist I would have ZERO issues with rocking the stock images. I'd just carefully choose which market apps to fill some of the functionality void.

When I first got my n4 in November I immediately started flashing ROMs (cm being ROM of choice). But after about a month I went back to 100% stock unrooted and stayed that way. Its nice to know everything will just work, plus after a while I get sick of flashing ROMs all the time. Only thing about stock is it gets kinda boring after a while, which is why I flashed PA yesterday but I'm kinda already thinking about going back to stock lol... Nothing matches its speed & smoothness imo

How bout battery life? I don't like using custom kernels... To many things to tinker with.

I wouldn't consider myself an avid flasher but I did try a ROM (AOKP) and ended up going back to stock because I like knowing everything will work on my phone when I need it to. On previous non nexus devices I always flashed ROMs that were as close to AOSP as possible because I think it's smoother (but they'd always have minor issues here and there were functionality didn't quite work all the way). I usually pick a ROM and stick with it. In this particular case I think it will be stock.

Same here, never been a huge fan of kernels. But I decided to give Franco a try and I can safely say battery is slightly better than stock. I was getting about 15 hrs + 3screen on with stock, now on PA w/ Franco I'm getting 4hrs screen on time. Only thing I noticed is every once in a while I see a tiny micro-stutter in an animation, but its worth it for an extra hr of SOT lol. Btw I'm running all stock settings on franco

Best rom for battery life ?

Which one is better ?

There is no real answer for this. Everybody has different results. For better battery focus more on the kernel. Try one for a few days, then another and compare performance. Keep going until you find what best fits your needs. Remember there is no overall best, but rather best for you.

Kernel, is more important for battery life, than just the ROM, plus your settings and apps make a huge difference too.

I've tried CM, Minco, Xylon, PA, the best I get is CM with franco kernel of course.

Which CM ? Official Nightly, or something like SlimBEAM ?

Official nightly usually is more cutting edge, but the M builds are more stable and would probably have better battery life.
Third Party Cyanogenmod, like SlimBean will most likely have lower battery life due to adding additional features, but like the other individuals said the kernel is more important than the ROM itself. A ROM can only be as efficient as the kernel itself.

More features does not equal less battery life..

Nexus 4 , then and now

I owned a nexus 4 when it was launched.
Kept it for a while but sold it because of the poor (at the time) battery times with stock 4.2.
My question is if anything has changed since then in terms of battery and/or performance with the latest kit kat 4.2
Can battery runtimes get any better with custom roms ? Stable one at least...
Thanks in advance.

Well, everything has changed. There are a variety of kernels that greatly improve battery life..so I don't see any consequences to sell N4 just because of that

There are all kinds of kernels and ROMs to extend battery life. I love this phone more now than I did when I bought it. Nexus 5 what?

[Q] Cyanogenmod Expiriences

Hi Guys
I wanted to try cyanogenmod 11 for the lg g2 i just wanted to know if the snapshots are stable enough to use as a daily driver or should i just flash the stable 10.2? and how is the battery life on the phone better or worse than stock? and also does cyanogenmod improve the gaming performance on the LG G2 does it give more FPS than the stock LG rom?
Thanks in advance!
Not worth (for me)

I recently installed the last nightly... Coudn't stay with it for more then a day... my BT didn't work and in the first try the camera FC'ed... Besides that I use the 120fps recording from G Pro 2... That isn't available on CM
^^^ Weird.
I'm using the latest nightly (well from 2 nights ago) on my D801 and I am having zero issues so far.
battery life seems about the same as Cloudy Pro 2 and stock.
performance is slightly better, but as far as games go, I haven't noticed a difference.
everything seems to be working just fine for me....camera works great, BT has been rock solid all day, not a single reboot/FC. absolutely no complaints....I'm surprised because i have heard some not so good things about CM on this phone (only had phone for 2 weeks now)

CM 10.2 was solid but every CM 11 nightly or snapshot that I tried gave me crashes, reboots and FC's. I personally wouldn't use anything but a stable build for a daily driver.
No issues. The latest nightly seemed to fix the WiFi connectivity issue and no longer need to go into airplane mode. I do have crash / reboot at least once a day though.
I have a LS980 and could never get the CM11 to boot. Once flashed the phone always booted to fastboot. I know on other AOSP ROMs the LS980 has glitchy problems that other G2 phones do not. Problems related to bluetooth and wifi and a kernel problem that causes reboots and Andriod.UI crashes.
Maybe you have a LS980 and that would explain a lot?
Not cyanogen but go with slim ROM you will be happy

How do I improve battery life on AOSP or CM based roms?

I have been using Purify CM13, and it is working great. The only problem is that it's draining a lot more than the stock rom, and SOT is like an hour and a half less. I was wondering if I can make it last longer.
I am using SM-N900T

Thought it's just me that every non samsung rom is draining battery. The same with my note 1 and tab2.
