Hello everyone,
From few weeks Im using Cloudy G2 2.2 ROM + Dorimanx kernel with performance mode - and unfortunately this ROM is very slow, few days ago I bought another LG G2 D802 for my friend, it comes with android 5.0.2 stock. Of course this system is completely clean but difference with speed to cloudy g2 2.2 (andorid 4.4.2) is very big. This 5.0.2 rom is much faster, Im asking this question because i have read a lot opinion that older cloudy rom and older stock based roms are more stable and faster than lolipop. But now I see that is not true.
I need stock based rom because of camera (for aosp is very poor).
Which stock based ROM is fastest for LG G2? Thanks in advance for your opinions
cloudy 3.3 + xceed kernel imo
I will try this ROM, any other suggestions ?
From my experience the fastest stock based ROM on the G2 D802 is CloudyStock 2.7. Kitkat is much faster and memmory management is night and day comparing Kitkat and Lollipop. Stock Kitkat based ROMS are optimized to run much better on G2 than Lollipop ROMs. Its interesting that Cloudy 2.2 is running slow for you, maybe try to reflash and use the default kernel that comes with it without changing any kernel settings. This is the ROM I am using ATM and it is one of the fastest. Also try MIUI 7 based on stock Kitkat, Cloudyflex, Cloudystock as I mentioned and other stock Kitkat based roms if you want speedy and snappy performance. Cloudy 3.3 is also good if you want Lollipop but it will bog down after a while and only data wipe can restore its snappyness although frequent reboots can improove memmory management. Dont use Dorimanx kernel it always slows my phone down no matter what settings I use, IDK why. Also if you are using G2 or G3 tweaksbox try disabling it, some settings can slow down your phone. The same goes for Xtana and similar apps thet change systemui and framework apk. Unicon app for changing icons also slows down any OS. Try to run as stock as possible for the snappiest performance.
Good idea to disable g2/g3 tweaks - I will try it, As I remember, on original kernel system was similiar slow. Maybe I just need full format all data/syste/ etc and install clean rom from beginning. Also I will try to record speed of my phone just to comparsion, maybe it is normal but just for me means slow? I dont think so.

I dont think so either. Also when installing choose odexed in aroma, this also affects ROM speed, app openning speed and boot time. Deodexed is not necessery as you can easily theme anything with G3 Tweaksbox even if your rom is odexed. Try shuffling trough D802 development section and you will find a couple of great Kitkat based roms like Coqueror rom or stock 20f prerooted kitkat rom.

Sorry but it's not clear, you mean that is better to install odexed or deoexed rom on beginning?

Its better to install odexed ROM.
Best thing you can do really is flashing a non stock rom...the difference is insane. The major drawback is the camera...the quality is considerably lower. Battery life is more or less the same! Stock lollipop from LG is so bad...even with xceed kernel
You are absolutely right! I know this, camera is just one reason which keeps me with stock rom. I used cyan 11 before and diffrence was huge, I mean camera is so bad but speed sooo good. I think lg g2 is not complete phone for me because of this. Camera is something very important for most of the ppl, and this one for aosp rom is not even worth to rating...

I'm using cm 10.2 on my d800. its been kinda buggy lately with the contacts and music widget crashing. I figure I'll put lollipop on. whats the most stable bug free rom to use? I was thinking either cm 12 or stock lg g2 lollipop update. I need a stable phone. I prefer the stock lollipop look so the lg g2 lollipop update isn't my first choice.
I am exactly like you, only that I have the Lollipop Update (D800 - v30f) but I want a Stock Lollipop-Looked Rom, but at the same time I want the LG's features like QuickMemo+ and QuickRemote, so if someone know how I could have this kind of LG's features on a AOSP Rom, I will be so geatfull!

I think the stock roms for any android version are missing a lot of camera features that come with the lg roms, right?

cloudy g2 3.0 looks like the lg g3 rom. has the lg skin.
it seems like a very good option if i can't find a unskinned rom.
imo lollipop is unstable on the whole (memory leak, redraws, etc) which is why im still on cloudy kk.
You could use the aosp stock laucher on top of standard lg Lollipop. From http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/upload-aosp-launcher-apk-lollipop-please-t2944079
Don't know if that will run on the G2... But why shouldn't it?

I've been on Lollipop since day 1, I've had 0 redraws, and I don't think I have memory leak, but I'm not sure how could I test that, seeing the running apps currently I have 733 MB free RAM, System uses 583 MB and Apps use 542 MB, I don't know how good is that, but I know that my experience on Lollipop has been great, I couldn't use KitKat for a minute (at least not stock KitKat, Cloudy's ROM is way better).

Or just download Nova? But that's still not the same as running a 5.1 stock ROM, I miss some things from my old phone which was running 5.1, and I can't replace that with apps.

what rom are you using now? cloudy g2 3.0 ?
Just stock Lollipop (I mean LG's stock Lollipop, not AOSP-stock).
Give Tsunamical's Euphoria-OS 1.1 a try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/rom-euphoria-os-1-1-t3114678
Euphoria-OS is from the same team that gave us the awesome Mahdi ROM for KitKat. Tsunamical has put a CAF-based kernel on it and done a bunch of other work. It's a fast, solid, daily driver quality ROM with lots of good features but without a lot of bloat.
My experience: stock lollipop + nova launcher set on fast + set 0.5 animations transitions and duration in developer options menu + kernel dorimanx in signature (performance profile). Rock stable super smooth and very good battery life.

I'm not sure if he is asking about Stock LG Lollipop or Stock Android. Regardless these are some good suggestions. I personally LOVE the stock LG rom. Like above, I use Nova regardless and .5 Animations.
The Verizon Stock Lollipop 39A is apparently supreme in this case, enough to warrant people porting it. Because the Verizon Variant is GSM unlocked, there isn't much hassle getting it to work on GSM international and Tmobile phones. Most of the "new" stuff Verizon lollipop brings is mostly more Material design in the dialer, messaging, email, etc. I know there is a port thread here somewhere if you look. I honestly didn't have a problem with it. It was MUCH more stable than the CM based roms. The G3 rom ports are also pretty good but buggy on the Verizon model (international G3 ported was lacking Verizon features). I always ended up back on stock.
I've tried going back to the Stock Android Lollipop but I constantly miss the small LG features of the LG rom. There are just too many cool things LG offers like the Floating notifications for Phone and Messaging, Wifi File Sharing, Keyboard, etc. These are things you can't download from the Play Store and have them intregrated like LG has it.
But no matter the base rom, I always use Nova, .5, lower DPI, and SideBar.
The only thing I really like is the CM Theme Engine to randomly swap out the system themes. But I like the white theme of the LG rom. This is the only phone I have actually stayed on the manufactures rom longer than a week; kept it for 2 years and since upgraded to the LG G4.
guys i own a D-802 16gb lg g2 right now & im using the CloudyG2 3.3 rom but i feel like my phone is not doing what it suppose to do and capable of, i see lags and over heating except for the camera it's soooooo good . anyway i need to know from the true honnest experts what is the best rom i can install on this phone whatever stock, stock based or AOSP, CM regarding best battery life, best camera less heating and in lollipop version. can i found what i want !!!
just flash dorimanx kernel and set it up properly... (it has heat limiter)
camera on aosp/cm roms is worse than stock...
or you can flash full stock 30f rom by somboons (you can clean flash it over cloudy3.3, just don't wipe internal storage)
there is nothing wrong with your device/rom, you just have to set it up properly...
So after dealing with a failed installation of PACMAN for my LG G2 and having to flash stock everything on get it working again, I'm still looking around for a good recommendation of any custom ROM for this thing. I'm on 4.2.2 Jelly Bean right now.
Modified stock is best. Custom roms are good to mess around with but I would never use one for me daily driver. You've already had first hand experience with how problematic they could be. If I were you I would update to lollipop(or not), root, autorec, and debloat everything you don't need. Then if you need some specific feature, mod, or app, add it as needed - the play store, this forum, and the xposed library have everything you could ever want. You have tons of options with rooted stock and it will be far more stable and have better performance than any custom rom.
I've been using Slimsaber as a daily driver, and it's fast, fine, and with great battery.

I was on Stock 30f debloated for a long time, and before that I was on CM11 Snapshot M9.
For the last few months I'm on Cloudy 3.3, I think of all the custom ROMs it is the most stable. I haven't faced any issues till now.
I will say go for Cloudy, but before you do you should take a full Nandroid backup of your current setup and save it on your PC. It's easier to go back if anything happens.
Im new at this phone and getting it today the d800 i have files already for CM13. Which one is more stable and can overclock without issues? Cloudy or MM?
Why do you want to overclock? CM13 is 100 times faster then any 5.0 stock rom, you don't need to overclock. But when using CM you should accept there are bugs and parts not working well. Camera is always best on stock! Sound in stock is better. But on CM13, GPS works well and my phone is as a brand new up to date fast phone. ALthough there are some bugs, it's stable as hell. Never had any hangup or reboot, using CM13's special build from Dr4xxxx (see the most thanked post in official CM13 thread) and Psychogames Kernel. Battery is the same for me.
It depands on you
Well I have tried both ....cloudy rom gives you the feel of LG g4 plus it is stock based rom so it will be bugs free... but it has a lot LG bloatwares which some people find them useful ..you can also install dorimanx kernel which can overclock both CPU and GPU (which for me it is note an important feature since it affects battery life and stability of our precious g2).
CM13 in the other hand is debloated rom with all new Marshmallow features with fast response and much more free ram...it has a few bugs but the developers all fixing it in a good time...I have installed it since last week from Cyanogenmod official site and tested intensively and the only bugs I have found so far are : the rear notification led is not working and the quality of the camera is fine but not as stock .....everything else is working great including the IR remote functions.
For me I have decided to keep using CM13 ?

before doing anything else, make sure your phone is not refurbished. then proceed. if refurbished it could say d800 but be a ls980. so itll brick.
if you dont care about camera, slow motion, and 4k video. then go CM is faster.
camera in stock is better. but CM or AOSP have some bugs. when i tried them theres was hissing coming from speaker.
if you go th cloudy route, then i recomend
CHELOZTEAM UX4 V4.
powerg2
icex
cloudy. to me battery isnt good as others and its slower. besides the others are based on newer firmwares cloudy hasnt been updated.
Hello! I've been using Cloudy ROM for a long time but now I feel lack of RAM on my G2 Int. That's why I search for the ROM as close to pure Android as possible. Please, advice me some. Thanks!
P.S. I record a lot of video so tell me what to install in addition to this ROM in order to capture nice photos and videos. Thanks a lot.
Resurrection Remix
Give a try to Resurrection Remix rom, one of the best I've been testing.
Any LG ROM is better than any AOSP/CM ROM for G2. Fact. Stay on LG ROMs.

Both roms have pros and cons.
On AOSP (MM) multitasking is much better.
On LG Stock camera and battery is better.

You can try exodus and cm13 or blisspop.
I have benchmarked on exodus rom , clean install, via antutu benchmark and i get low score than my currently installed lollipop stock with bunch of apps and stuff.
Anyway , for me , if you dont want lots of customization and stuff, or not looking to get a marshmallow on your device, then flash stock lollipop, root, install twrp, install dorimanx kernel, greenify with exposed, and enjoy highest possible battery life.
go for the rom called Google edition 1.5. Flash Dorimanx. Be happy.
I use Dirty Unicorns with Lambda Dominó kernel and right now i have the most high batt/speed i ever had on my G2...
I'd say:
- for lightweight stock experience take somboon's stripped-down rom
- for a modern UX rom, take Ice-x rom. Take this one if You want to focus on photos and videos.
- for an up-to-date original android experience take Dirty Unicrons and Exodus roms. Both are AOSP base, both offer stability and lots of features.
These roms don't offer milions of customisations, but provide a great experience with excelent batterty life. At least for my D802.
I used all of them them as car navigation and did a lot of document photographing for my work.
All 4 are good daily drivers and never failed me.
It is up to You to tune the roms to Your needs. I have found out that both Dirty Unicrons and Exodus don't really need a custom kernel.
However Dorimanx's kernel is highly recommended for stock-based roms.
So I recomend You Ice-X with Dorimanx's kernel, but I don't know which version will work best for You.
I add that the AOSP MM roms are heated much more than the stock. Stock 25ºC-36ºC and 32ºC-44ºC AOSP...
With the lambda kernel and underclocking they improve a bit, but still warming up the phone rather than the stock, especially when using some app like the camera, gps,...
- For AOSP MM and great customization, Resurrection Remix rom [6.0.1_r46][UBER-GCC 4.9][CM13], great rom, + kernel lambda stable, improve overheating.
- For stock rom for my the best is ROM 5.0.2. stock based SRKG2-4-10 (Fast,Stable,Yummy) [3 In 1 ROM with Thai Food Names]
