A custom ROM is basically a modified version of the AOSP version. Custom ROMs are mostly built and developed by enthusiasts. They add new features e.g. customisation or functionality. They also provide bug fixes.
On non-Nexus devices they bring the newest Android version to devices that are not officially supported by the manufacturers. This doesn't play a role foot you, because Nexus devices get the updates immediately after their announcement.
You can install whatever custom ROM you want as long as it is made fit the Nexus 4. You may brick your phone otherwise.
Just look for a guide for rooting and install a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM.

I've only flashed CM10 and paranoid android, CM10 is just so good i don't really see any reason to flash anything else. It's also pretty much stock as far as ui so not hard to get used to.

Any answers to this? I've asked the same thing in a few different places and haven't received a definitive answer. Thanks in advance

I hate what Google have done with Bluetooth in 4.2 onwards, and was wondering if it were possible to put Android 4.1 onto a Nexus 4?
I know there are no factory builds, but would it be possible to compile a version to support the N4 hardware?
Thanks,
Luke
If a 4.1 rom would excist you could, but it doesn`t You have to build one yourself. Why not go back to Gingerbread or Froyo while you`re at it :silly:
No binaries = no 4.1 build
Hi,

Of course not silly.

Yes, it is possible to get Android 4.1 on the Nexus 4.
Most Optimus G 4.1 drivers and other stuff work on the Nexus 4.
Here is a thread for an Android 4.1 ROM "ported" over from the Optimus G. It's quite buggy and not suitable as a daily driver, though.
I don't know if the Optimus G folks have a working CM10 (4.1) for their device, but if they have you could probably port that one over with some effort.

Hi all
I'm currently rooted, using slimkat 4.4.4 on my old trusty nexus 7 2012 wifi edition. I want to update to a new rom, but there are so many to choose from I'm a little confused with features - I wondered which is the bare minimal build like slimroms?
Thanks

I saw a suggestion to go for CM 12 from an expert on xda. If I find the link I'll put it here for you.
Hi.
Is your Bluetooth working in slimkat 4. I've the same device but Bluetooth stopped after installing slimkat 4.4.4

Hi Iamsra, yep works fine, although I don't use it much, the kit is probably so old it's almost stable lol
Finally we can expect Android Oreo 8.0 for Nexus 7...
Android Oreo devices with 512MB to 1GB of memory will come with the all the Go optimizations.

This doesn't mean we'll build oreo for the aging N7, even with app optimizations and system optimizations oreo still probably won't run well on the Nexus 7 2012. I don't even see why we bother with android, what we need to do is work on Sailfish, because that runs buttery smooth on this tablet. Who knows though, maybe we'll see a Sailfish OS 2.x build for the 2012 Nexus 7 soon
Anyway I would be surprised if android go actually makes the Nexus 7 noticeably faster, heck, I would be surprised to see an oreo build at all.

I would hope that the Devs manage to port it to the grouper, because AOSP Nougat with no gapps is fairly usable, so I think Oreo isn't much heavier than Nougat

I prefer Sailfish OS, its faster, smoother, and much much much more lightweight.
late to this party, but as an owner of a grouper, i can report that my sony xperia sp of similar vintage is running google go built on 8.1 with great success
As another owner of a grouper I would like to see this come to some light and possible development. Available for testing too ..
So I feel dumb as I created a thread asking about exactly this without realising this thread exists... You can add me to the list of people that would be interested in seeing this come to life.
additional info : the xperia sp with this enabled has far greater battery drain in standby than the "stock" oreo - presumably due to power used in shuffling memory space
standby with it enabled is ~ 36 hours... but without it is 9 (yes, that's NINE !) days
Lol I just brought my nexus 7 2012 back to life. Rooted, installed twrp. Android go/Oreo would be nice.

mine's doing great service as the music media hub in the kitchen / living area, porting flac files from the server using neutron (great app !) via bluetooth to the nad d3020 and onto a 2+1 wharfedale speaker set - sounds fantastic
it's on 7.1.2 security patched to jan 2018
if you don't use it already, i recommend wugfresh's nexus root toolkit :good:

Thank you for the tip, Nexus 7 Tulip running smoother then ever now.
Unofficial Oreo 8.1 AEX rom runs very fluidly on my nexus 7 flo (using gapps 8.1 pico). Its much better than any other rom that I've tried. It comes with the elementalX kernel and substratum built in (has 9 custom themes).

but we have nexus 7 Grouper/Tilapia
you know that you are referencing a rom from 2013 right? grouper/tilapia is way outdated and isn't android kit kat or something like it.
