For music, Monte Carlo Stirfry, as it has dolby sound. It's also using 2.6.35 kernel, so it should perform better with games compared to stock roms.
For games, and music, it's difficult to say. I'm afraid you have to play with a couple of different roms, if MCS doesn't work for games as well. Elitemovil's roms are fast, so you might want to wait till tomorrow when Elitemovil releases his new Blade_Rom 2.3.4 r9. It doesn't have dolby though, but you might not need it after all.
CyanogenMod 7, latest nightly, http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=blade You'll also need the google apps addon from here: http://goo-inside.me/gapps
gsf-blade-b23 is stable and fast
Is there something new for the Blade mobile now? i'm just terribly outdated right now A fast and nice to battery rom would be nice.

after using a good amount of roms for the blade i stuck to cyanogen mod7 nightly 257 i cant complain about performance and battery life
So I used to be on Dark Unicorn Resurrected 2.5 (ICS) and recently upgraded to JellyBellyG1.1 (JB). Specifically it was this version of the rom without the nav buttons "3b. Dark JellyBellyG1b (Without Navigation Buttons)".
Before on my phone I could play videos from sites like vimeo and pinkbike no problem directly in my browser (Opera Mobile) they also worked on the new Opera Mobile 14 so it's not that. The Youtube app works and watching youtube videos from the browser plays no problem, it seems like it's just videos from other sites.
It seems like the problem is playing .mp4 files since I get an error saying "sorry this video cannot be played". I downloaded MX Player and it does play the videos (if I download them to my SD card first then select it to play via MX Player) that I want but I want to stream videos directly from my browser.
Well it looks like I can't post a url to a sample video because I don't have 10 posts but look for the "redbull uci-dh-world-cup-season-teaser" video. This is the one I'm using as a base to see if I can get other (non YT) videos to work (it does the same with pinkbike and vimeo videos as well). I get the error message above when trying to play it in the browser (note that it also does this in Opera and the stock Browser as well, I'll be trying out Chrome later today to see if that fixes it but I just like Opera as a browser for some reason).
Could it be some sort of codec issue? AFAIK droids should be able to play mp4 container files natively and it definitely did work when I was on Dark Unicorn so I suspect it's something with the Jellybelly codecs or whatever.

How about trying a newer ROM. I think you prefer AOKP judging by the two ROMs you mentioned.
Try Cnotes aokp its 4.1.2 I think.

Ha, you would be correct. I never got into Paranoid but I was on AOSP/CM7 before and it was alright but I think AOKP's ROM control layout is more logical and has more cutting edge features. Kind of like Fedora which is more cutting edge and "shiny" vs CentOS which is more stable/long term and for "Enterprises".
I'll try out Cnotes AOKP ROM. But do you think I should go PACman or stick with his AOKP ROM since that's what I like?

Since you said you like tweaks I would say PAC. Because it has pretty much all the tweaks from 3 big roms.
And JellyBelly is a bit old; its Android JB, but 4.1.1, Cnotes AOKP is 4.1.2, and PAC is 4.2.2. lol. The only bug is probably the headset overheating, but even that's not that bad when your phone is plugged in.
Hope I helped!
Okay so it looks like a new ROM solved my problem and I went with PACman, gotta get used to the Paranoid stuff still but it seems pretty straightforward and all the AOKP stuff works. I'm still not sure why it did that with my original install though, maybe it was some electric gremlins messing the original install or something.

Yeah you did. But now I'm having another problem with PACman Glacier. So I flashed 22.3 and it came with the 3.0.7x kernel which I was having a few problems with, I then wiped cache/dalvik and flashed the 3.0.66 coderzs kernel. Now on occasion it will say "Unfortunately system UI has stopped" and take like a minute to reload the launcher, lockscreen, widgets, etc. Is there another kernel I could try? Maybe downgrade further to 3.0.61 and hope it's more stable?
I'm not exactly sure why the above happens and I don't know the exact steps to replicate it but basically from idle/sleep it will do that when I try to turn the device back on. Could it be the governors maybe? I'm using Ondemand and noop (coderzs doesn't have smartassv2 or anything like that).

Well, PAC runs off of .66 and higher kernels so no .61
But older versions may be able to run kernels like that. Try 22.0.1 and under. 19.3 was the best version according to some posts. Try the .61 on that

Are there other standalone kernels that I can try flashing? Or should I try to do some test cases to replicate and submit some logs?

There are yes and no
U can find kernels to flash but doesn't mean it will be 100% compatible
paranoid ROM has no working camera also the aokp rom is actually 4.2.1 but it has a problem where after running it for a few hours it gets super slow and lags till it freezes
I have been testing all job ROMs except codename android or cm10 from 0.0 (which notorious, the link in the resource bible is wrong for codename)
Even though I would love to be on a 4.2.2 ROM for the stability I'm on andromadus cm10 it is rock solid should be official I think

Try Albinomans CM 10.1. It's 4.2.2 and its solid. I've been running it for about a week with no issues.
Its sweet.
Sent from my myTouch 4G using xda app-developers app
Well actually there is an issue basically the only one but its kinda big.
Dropped signal with missed call and sometimes random signal drops. Happens on all the 4.2.2 ROMs.
I am actually now testing the cm10 by 0.0, I was getting system ui fc on andromadus cm10. So far its running perfect and modified a track pad wake zip to work on the ROM.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 4G using xda premium
This is true. I've just been using airplane mode to restore it. Seems to work. Declining calls won't drop... But obviously you need to be near the phone.
I'm surprised though at how good the 4.2.2 ROMs run on this phone, better than a lot of other older ROMs we have. As much as I would love to to be on that ROM I have to stick with something more stable though. I'm just glad I'm still on jb

First post so go easy on me ...
So been also coming across the obvious "signal drop after missed call issue" and the always popular "headphone overheat bug" in all the JB ROMs for Glacier. Been through CM10.1, CM10.2, Carbon, Albinomans etc. and always come across them. It's been verified that it is in the kernel of course. I have a logcat for both that I would love to get to the devs out there working on these ROMS. Not enough posts of course to get them to any dev. Any help is greatly appreciated!

+1 for the logs
Although these are helpful, try googling how to dsmeg or dmeg or something like that
Those commands are like Logs but are more helpful when it comes to kernel issues.

Here is a dsmeg kernel log. I think I found it right. HS_MNG seems to handle the headset commands. Though I was using earbuds with a mic and found that it was saying "no mic was found"...don't quote me on that... still new at all this code stuff. Will get the signal drop dsmeg when I experience the bug again. :fingers-crossed:
Regarding signal drop on JB ROMs, I'm currently on coderz carbon ROM 4.3 latest build. The drop happened again after a missed call. Just curious though, has anyone addressed that while signal is dropped, and you try to make a call, it says to "first turn airplane mode off" when clearly it is not in airplane mode. Wondering if this is just an normal android occurance when there is no service, or if this observance could help in any way. I apologize for the noobness...still learning
N_otori0us I know you're listening
Check out this Youtube channel.
This guy shows videos of various roms, and he is also using the T-mobile Galaxy Note 4.
This would be a good place to go if you are stuck picking a ROM.
There are reviews for BeanStalk, Dynamic Kat, Liquid Smooth, and CM12.

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to use whichever AOSP based ROM becomes stable enough for daily use cause Touchwiz is driving me nuts.
What is the best ROM for performance for this device?
I'm currently on Pure Nexus (based on 6.0.1) it's quite smooth but what bugs me is that the audio stutters when trying to multitask, like browsing, opening other apps etc.
I would appreciate if someone could give me some advice on what ROM I should use for best performance and eliminates these audio stutters if possible, because I know this device is quite old and wasn't that fast even when it came out.

I'm not sure what model you have but I've tried out a few roms. CM12.1 and Resurrection Remix 5.5.7 work pretty good on my Tilapia. Dirty unicorns 7.1.1 is pretty cool but has some bugs

Would you recommend Pure Nexus Rom? It feels a bit laggy when browsing the internet sometimes.

I tried PNP but couldn't get gapps to jive with it. I gave up and tried something else
Honestly the AOSP 7.1.2 seemed to run the best, even google assistant works on it.
<updated to AOSP 7.1.2
It is running great so far.
Hi guys,
About a year ago, I bought a used LG V20 off Amazon. The thing was pretty darn slow. My galaxy s6 active was considerably faster and I had been hoping for an upgrade.
After some research, I ended up flashing to Alpha Omega rom which was considerably better than stock, but still not as great as the benchmarks would have you think the phone was (gets really sluggish from having 3-4 apps at once and nothing major, mostly music, a browser, email, etc) . Also, the bluetooth in car audio starts to cut in and out about 20% of the time I'm listening to music, and it's very inconvenient. Before I go buy yet another used phone to replace this with, I'm hoping to try out one more ROM with the hope that maybe this is a software only issue (and who knows, maybe they sold me a faulty phone).
I currently have Alpha Omega but want to try something different. I don't game on my phone, I use it for work, music, browsing, email, calls. I'd like something that's not buggy and performs well.
Any recommendations on which ROM to go with? I also tend to not be great with all the details I need to provide when flashing a phone, but here's some info I hope will help:
Android v 8.0.0
Baseband MPSS.TH.2.0.1.c3..........................156374.2
Kernel 3.18.71
Build A-O 20G 1.1.6
Software V H91020h

I ended up flashing to LIneage OS 16. I'm still working out some bugs ( i must've done something wrong along the way), but it's feeling pretty fast so far. I'll test it for another week or two, and decide whether to keep the phone from there.
hi
why not try Mega Rom v4 or v5?
My phone felt slow, I cleared cache and it was still slow. I ended up changing the kernel settings to the ondemand governor and things sped up big time.
can someone guide me to a setup quite to install kernel?

@BascotieI
The BTTF kernel by the guy that does the MK2000 kernel gave me the best performance and battery when I was on nougat. Recommend trying that to see first but there could be multiple other factors. If you are on Oreo then the latest beta26 for MK2000 for Oreo will be the one you want. Another thing you can do that some have recommended is change the governor to performance for just the little cores.
