I'm wondering what everyone's go to rom is. I'm new to this phone and I'm looking for a reliable rom.
I'm on the stock due to the warranty, but i can suggest a rom based on AOSP code for a pure android experience. Less extra features more stability you get. Probably i'd choose the AOSiP, try several roms until you'll find the right for you.
Debloated stock rom, rooted with ElementalX kernel. Not as many options as with custom roms, but everything just works. I find with most custom roms the camera quality is lacking.
Going with stock rom, mainly cause of the camera quality.
Camera quality has been fine On aosp roms, I'm running viper right now with no issues

There is a fully working stock Moto Camera zip available as of yesterday that is working on custom ROMs. Just an FYI. It is on the g5 plus app forum.

So is there any rom (I think stock based would be my best bet) that has no important bugs? Or should I just flash a custom kernel on a stock firmware?
No there is no such perfect custom rom due to some technical limitations.
Try stable ROMS, there is more probability you find everything working there. I suggest you Resurrection Remix for personalization and CM 12.1 for stability. Btw is your choice, choose the one suits you best.

as you said the stock based is your best bet but for me i use s5 mini rom it has everything working exept NFC because s5 mini does not have that feature
This rom has probably less bugs than the rest http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/development/rom-galaxy-s3-neo-stock-firmware-t2975102
Best is cm11 with sev3n kernel. 6h of screen good camera(cm12 is a joke), radio and everything. No bugs no lags and finally a decent phone. If you want lollipop flavour install cm11 ideal theme from store. It looks the same. After trying almost everything it,s my choice.

Offline chaning work? Battery idle 7 day work? Thank you.
(SORRY BAD MY ENGLISH 50%)
Yes offline charging works and in cm12 also works. Only cm12.1 has that bug. Try kang cm 12.1 after flashing perharps 10 roms is now my favourite . Well i miss cm11 Camera but you can't have everything, i'm a little tired of KitKat and since yesterday we hace a good lollipop ROM with a good tweaked kernel and almost free of bugs.
I am using stock firmware 4.4.2 with xposed and some modifications. It is good and now i am going to try any custom kernel. For me, custom roms are useless especially those CM based.
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]
What is the best rom for i9505 performance with full working all need feature like gps, camera, bluetooth and other?
For Camera stock based is best. Bes custom for me is JDCTeam 7.1.2 LineageOS ROM. Simply the perfect. Well customised, tweaked etc. Great performance and battery life compared to other ROMs. Only drawback is camera quality (like the rest of any Custom ROM)

I installed this rom. Viper sound equalizer not working for me
That's kinda a known issue. It's not ROM related. Please remove Viper or install latest version. Or just simply use Audio FX (standard). Can be selected during Aroma Installer.
Hi. I've got a G5 plus on the way and wanted to ask if the stability/battery life of the Nougat custom roms is as good as the stock rom, and if so, which is the most stable?
I gather the camera quality on custom roms is not as good as stock?
I've also read complaints about the low speaker volume on this phone, is it something that can be fixed with a custom rom/rooted stock rom?
if there are any other advantages/disadvantages I've missed out please let me know, thanks!
I'm actually using 8.0 stock rom, but I was thinking to install an custom rom but I don't know, what did you guys think is better? In terms of battery, performance, gaming, etc...
In case you prefer a custom rom, which one do you recommend?
I am on Stock (been using Stock+Franco kernel but decided to go back to completely stock). If you want best battery life then install kernel like Franco or Mint. If you want more customization then consider using Custom ROM. Good custom ROMS are AEX and RR. Maybe theres more but i didn't bother checking it out since i'm on stock.
