No point in having this thread. Every rom has its rights and user. You can try and find out yourself. There are only handful of ROMs. Important thing is still 4.2.1 is not that ready yet. If you want, try OFFICIAL NIGHTLIES FROM CM10.1 or Asylum(cm10.1) or Stunner 2.0(AOKP) which I have used before. I might have missed out some here but never tried them. My choice would be a Stunner... . Please feel free to try them and find out yourself rather than somebody suggesting you to. After all they are here to download and try. Good luck.

First, wrong section.. You are asking questions so this should be in the q&a
Second, that's very subjetive questions.. The rom that has it all and it's the best thing that ever happened in my life... Could be the worst piece of crap for you.. So go find out by yourself
Tapatalking on my n7000
C'mon guys, can we show a bit more love here?
I don't think this should be in Q&A, as it's a question that's meant to generate discussion and comment. It could easily have been rephrased as - "Comparisons between 4.2.1 ROMS". It doesn't have a question mark at the end, so now it's OK even though it would be discussing the same thing? Or it could have been a "POLL: Best 4.2.1 ROM", and it'd be ok?
And yes, we can tell people to go try all the ROMs out there, but what's the harm in someone asking for other users comments on their experiences? Afterall, isn't this meant to be a place of discussion? I've found it enormously useful to have discussions like the OP is asking for, and it'd be a shame that these discussions don't take place anymore.
To try to contribute to the OP's question - I've used Asylum and have loved it. It has saved my Note. Had been very frustrated with the lag that came with the TW ROMs but now it's brought my Note back to life again. I've been wanting to try Stunner, and based on Galaxtus' comment that he prefers Stunner the most, I will give that ROM a try too. (So thank you, Galaxtus for that very helpful comment!).
official CM 10.1 of course.

As with all "best" threads, there is no best. You need to try some out, and see which one is best for you.

I'm starting this post as a guide for people trying new roms, I thought of asking which rom are you using right now, but that would be a popularity contest.
I've been an android user for a while, but I'm new with the cappy, as a new owner, I didn't know which rom is the best rom around, so far I've tried at least 5 (firefly, darky, apex, stock 2.1, stock 2.2) But I don't wanna say which one I'm using right now cause I don't wanna influence the results of this post.
So, I'm Gonna post all roms I've see and ask the users what you think, please, after voting, talk about your experiences with the roms you've been using, I feel this could help choosing a rom for every new owner.
If I'm leaving a rom out, please let me know and I'll post it.
If you are a developer and you don't wanna see your rom here, please let me know via PM it and I'll remove it.
Alright, I've tried to edit the poll but as it turns out, only moderators can edit polls, so, please, I'll try to contact a moderator to include other roms in the poll, but I don't wanna bug a moderator for every single rom, so, If you guys be so kind, which other roms would you like to see here?
So far I only have one suggestion from xhozt to add victory, I would like to add at least other 5 roms. Suggestions?
This is a bad idea. First off its a matter of opinion and secondly all the dev work hard on their roms, how is it fair to say one is better than the other?

Yes, as choosing a phone its a matter of opinion, and yes, not all roms work the same and they don't have the same performance, are you implying cause they are working hard on their roms they shouldn't be rated?
What you are saying its like saying movies shouldn't be rated cause people work on them.
We should have an honest poll an opinion for guidence, this shouldn't mean we are disregarding other people works, I support all developers, but as a person, I believe some roms I've tried are better than others. The posts I've seen have not helped me making a decision on a particular rom, so far all have been trial an error. Not every rom is perfect, but some are better than others.
On a final note, Its just a poll, I'm just asking people around, if this polls were more extensive, I would ask more questions as memory managment, multitasking performace, etc. But I can only ask one question.
Lol thats different. We are talking about community dev's spending their part time working on projects. Don't know you shouldn't compare or rate.

Sure thing buddy, I'm trying to edit the poll but I cant find where is that option
It is a bad idea only because it has been tried before and failed. Best rom threads are locked because every user has differences in what they like, as well as how their phone reacts to the rom. A search next time could show how many of these threads, including the last rom poll are locked.
Just so you know, you can't edit the poll once it has been created.
Glitch kernel let me OC to 1.4!

I still believe work can be rated, but I'm not rating individual works, Im asking for people's opinion, if a developer has something to say about it, and want their rom removed, I would gladly remove it. I won't do it cause you don't think is right, this is a free site last time a checked.
Another one of these??
No thanks. Closed.
Ok this is only my opinion. I have tried these ICS ROMS.
Team Hacksung: (whom so many of us owe a great deal of gratitude)

Doc's Master ICS (v3.1 as v4 is buggy)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462035
and unofficial kang build 4.0.3
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499730
All of them are great. I haven't tried weui because I didn't like it in gingerbread and I want my ICS experience to be totally new.
Also haven't tried ICSGS because there seemed to be alot of ppl having problems with it.
If you want insane transitions and themeing I'd go with fusion. (eye candy city)
To me Doc's Master ICS (v3.1, as v4 is buggy) and the 4.0.3 kang unofficial build, are the absolute best.
I've never had a sleep death or charge death with either of them.
Gapps are included so that's one less step for someone trying it for the first time.
Also I use glitch 14b3 as the kernel for all my ICS roms cuz it just makes it so damn smooth.
So I'd like to know what you guys think so we can help new memebers who are thinking of jumping on the ICS bandwagon to help them make a decision.
Only you can make this decision, try all and see which fits you best. XDA isn't a competition website, it is where DEVs can prosper. So please refrain from pinning them up in boxing corners and wanting to see a fight...
Well that was not my intention.
I wanted to get the opinions of those who have the knowledge on how to flash and have tried them all. Then they can tell their thoughts to people who are new to ICS so they can then go on to the threads and make up their own minds.
When I started looking at these with the thought of flashing ICS it was so intimidating. Just finding the right place to go was overwheliming.
I have found most ppl on XDA to be helpful. Not combatative. So if they can post somewhere and give their insights on a non development thread where is the harm?
I'm not arguing with you(not saying it in any special tone, just saying), just let reinbeau make the decision on weather this thread should stay...
And it is up to the user to try all. That is XDA rules.
Fair enough. I certainly don't want to break the rules. Thanks for the heads up and letting me know if I stepped over the line on this one.
There is like 10 other "which is the best rom?" post
did you read any of them??
Flash ALL the roms and chose for yourself!
You make the choice

b-eock and jayRokk are correct, best ROM threads get closed here because it's all in how you use your phone and what you find works best for you.
Hi,
So i have been laghtly realy into flashing roms and ive had a few already.
-Carbon Rom
-Parandroid
-Supernexus
-CM10
Now i have been getting pretty bored with these so i whas wondering if you guys knew any new ones that are fun and good looking.
I prefer something over either the touchwiz interface because that doesnt change a lot from before i started flashing roms
Greats,
(P.S. I preffer android 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 but 4.0 is also fine with me)
Sorry for posting this in the wrong section.

You won't believe how bored developers are about posts like yours.
This is a really thankful attitude which you show for the endless hours of work the devs put in their roms.
Try to contribute something useful, help other users or stay out of dev-section.
At least learn to read, write and show some gratefulness.
Your question should be adressed to Delphic's oracle. Who the f*ck should know what you find less boring.
This will release your boredom
Want something new and exciting? Why not try "Ubuntu for phones" (http://www.ubuntu.com/phone)? That is something totally new and something which you'll not fond in the forums here. Also it will save the hard working developers here from the thankless rants.
Thread closed as its a Best ROM thread.
Hey folks,
the title says it all - I'm looking for the best ROM for daily usage for my wife :cyclops:
Right now she owns a HTC Sensation with CM 10.2 from Albinoman (20131028), but it's always a bit laggy and buggy.
So I need a ROM which is really smooth and - the most important thing - has a really good working camera!
Otherwise I know I will run into really big problems :laugh:
It mustn't be the newest ROM, but the most stable and smoothest - nothing less and nothing more
Any recommendations from you ROM-freaks?
Best regards and thanks in advance for your help

Okay - thanks for...nothing?!
I agree to AndreiLux' answer to the OP of the linked thread.
Why it should not be allowed to ask people about their experiences with one or another ROM
I clearly stated what I'm looking for, and stability and a working camera are truly hard-facts for which I can get recommendations.
Not to bother you...but this really doesn't help anybody.
Best regards

I can advice you to go for The Galaxy Project v11.anything for the Galaxy S3 LTE. (I'm not sure which is the latest version of v11). This is a nice rom based on stock android 4.1.2, very stable and everything works. Do not go to 4.3 yet if you want stability and everything working smoothly.
The reason "Best Rom" threads are not allowed, is because it's "subjective". It can also lead to arguments between devoted fans. Understand, not everybody at XDA is civil. Mostly, but some folks take "fan devotion" to another level and cause serious problems. I won't mention any "Team" roms that frequently troll each other. For this point, "Best Rom" threads get closed unless there is a formal official thread monitored by the moderation team.
My advice is to read the popular threads starting from the last few pages. This gives you an idea of any recent bugs in the recent releases.
Then try a couple.
Although the recent CM. Paranoid Android, AOKP and PacMan roms are nice, they are not for everybody as they can get complicated with options. I myself prefer a more stock based, odex'd ROM. With Xposed mods, custom kernel and some necessary apps.
With that said, this thread will be closed now.
Cheers

Hi,
I'm currently looking for a nice stable KitKat rom. In testing asylum right now. I really like the dark interface. Looks pretty nice on amoled. I have some wlan and camera probs though.
The original omni and slimkat seem to be good choices, too.
I want a fully working nice rom asap and not test for days or weeks. Unfortunately I have other stuff to do
Can someone give me some pros and cons of those or other roms, pls? Which one delivers the most stable build atm.
Thanks a lot

If you read the rules and have browsed a few of the headlines you should already know that BEST is not allowed and in violation of the rules. Try them yourself!
Sorry, didn't know that this is not allowed. Just wanted to know which rom runs without any issues

Unless stated otherwise, each Rom will have their full description in the OP including known bugs. Of course individual hardware condition also play a part in generating issues. The best solution is to always do a full, clean flash whenever flashing a new rom.
And to answer your enquiry, all developers who cooked the roms have made the roms in accordance to survey, latest updates, and mostly from personal preference so again what might be an issue to you might not be to many others. As a weekly flasher, the best way to know how good a rom is of course to try it ourselves, it's all the fun of flashing cusrom about.

I think everyone already stated the reasons why this thread is being closed
The BEST ROM is the one that works BEST for YOU. Read the ROM threads...it is full of members who think THAT ROM is the best.
You need to find out what works best for you, your phone/apps/usage/signal/setup.

In addition to what Kenny said, please do not use the mention system to "summon" moderators, I have been at work throughout the day so wasn't online, meaning mentioning me is useless (at weekends at any rate). Please use the report system for matters concerning forum/thread moderation.
Thanks.
