I am using AllianceROM from my signature. It is very smooth and snappy. It's TW based JB and it's nicely themed with OTAs and a lots of customizations. You can install with or without Samsung and Google apps. Just follow instructions.
I'm using Super Nexus 2.0
Pros:
Smooth and fast
No Bloatware
Great battery life
Cons:
None really. (some may say it is to much of a minimal ROM) but I actually like that
My favs
It's been about 15 months since i'm having my beloved Note, and i guess i flashed like 30 different ROM's on it, from GB's to JB's, CM, MIUI, literally everything. Let me mention my 2 favourites, The first one was this: [ROM][4.1.2][10/14] Cookies & Cream 1.3.0. Very highly customizable, smooth, and amazing battery life. The reason i stopped using it, cuz it has some flaws, i cannot save my contacts to the SIM card, or anywhere else, just to my Google, which i don't want. The other one problem was, there's no option to store the photos on your external SD card, only to the internal. Apart from this, a very good ROM. The next i'd like 2 mention is, my all-time fav, Chrack' s XXLRQ v16 Final. I'm using it for a while now, this is the most perfect ROM i ever used on my Note. Everything works perfectly, no FC's, lagging, smooth as melted butter, and it has probably the best battery life i ever experienced. Simply perfect ROM. I cannot recommend anything else more than this.
CM 10.1. Pure; like it should be.

I liked ultimate rom
In non tw ROM, paranoid android is my favorite....
Currently on alliance ROM... just loving it...

CM 10.1 is the fastest but also the softest
Paranoid Android is the coolest but buggy
All the TW ROMS including stock are dealable and for a major manufacturer to make a ROM that u can actually use WO having to be an I-Drone then i think every veteran would say that's impressive!
but also that, basic functionality doesn't mean that a C student getting a C+ is someone i want to hire or give a medal...u don't get praise for making something that works, after a million failed attempts, especially when u are a zillion dollar company
All the TW ROMs are pedestrian and I never understood why people can't live wo S-Planner? You use a TW ROM BC u have a separate tablet, and u cant live wo SPen...omg are u kidding? hahahahaha
Start flashing virgins, there's no reason we cant direct mobile computing....u can lay down and accept whats given,which is for them, or u can demand the best and push the envelope
Really we just want the hardware...
Thanks Samsung for making a device that I-Drones might look at BC its big but no thanks on trying to make more Samsung drones.... Its not good for humanity, technological advancement or me personally
BTW i use Paranoid Android (Jelly Beer)

Which ever one you like the best? Honestly, there is no such thing as the "best" in the custom ROM world. What suits you best? I don't know, I can't answer that for you. If you want Touchwiz and S-Pen capabilities...there are a few options. Do you like AOSP? MIUI?...cause there are a few of those as well!

imlika's AOSP ICS hands down for me. I had issues with partial root permissions with all other ICS releases, but not with AOSP. Also it's slim (no Samsung crapware), fast and can be run in tablet mode with no issues.
The only downside is the video recording doesn't work (missing drivers, will be fixed in time hopefully), and USB connectivity (this can be overcome by using various WiFi file sharing apps from the market).
Okay, I'll play. I'd have to agree. AOSP at the moment is pretty damn flawless, and for most people, the pure Google experience is the preferred one. I also love MIUI to death, and I think the level and ease of customization is unparalleled anywhere in the mobile OS realm.

Thanks, I know there is no best thing in anything in life for that matter. Just want some personal opinions! I just have the Chinese Leaked ICS Rom and I'm looking for something else.

I use imilka's aosp, mostly because I love the tablet mode capability in that,
and if i want stock, I would use Team Rocket rom, version 1.6 is gonna be released tomorrow and it has lots of fix, So I hear.
I know that there are many experienced people her like Nooby, huexxx.. (that i know, maybe there are others too..)
I wanted to ask there are many users that have experienced both of them, in your opinion which one is better for normal use. Plus what is comparison between them

Let's say experianced noob ^^ well for a basic user, you can in fact use both... more battery, stock stability and compatibility are on zeus side. About more features and feeling cool and wanting the latest, take CM10 But you really should at least try both or even more. It took me really long to decide and in fact i am still changing quite often, to check out new features and development. Just install one, set it up to your needs, try/test it, back it up, flash another one, try it and decide whats best for you. You should also try ICS repack. If sms works fine for you, it should be one of the best daily drivers available till now (at least I liked pretty much, but sms doesnt work for me...) so have fun

I used zeus for performance and stability.. now im using cm10 for the looks and new feeling
I've already tried both and I can honestly said that Zeus is my fav. CM10 is still very buggy...
I used Zeus untill Aokp ics was released and now i'm on Aokp jb and i have tried cm10 to.
If you want stability use Zeus.
If you want to be up to date use cm10
well said by nooby and romwiz
zeus is more stable and cm10 is still a little buggy
i personally stopped using zeus since a week and am pretty happy with miui and cm10
if you don't game much, go cm10
if you game, go zeus and it has the same looks
I have tried both of them.
personally, i think Zeus is more suitable for me. It has a better performance and stability.
However, if u want to try the new functions, just go for cm10...
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk 2
I think ZEUS is for daily use (6.4 or 7.03) and all ICS, CM10 or whatever, you'll have to make some compromise in using your phone (no gps or no video, not being able to install the apps you want...).
Can anyone tell me if it's possible to change the notification bar's function shortcuts in zeus, like in cm??

My girlfriend currently has this phone and she is complaining about how laggy it is, glitching and the battery life is horrible.. Otherwise she loves the phone. I was wondering what I could do to fix that. I was thinking about rooting it and deleting some of the bulkware that's on it and hoping that should fix it. I ran a app cache cleaner on it the other day and some of the apps had several hundred MBs of useless cache on it.
What would be the best way to spring this phone back to life? Root and clean up the stock ROM, or Root and install a custom ROM?... If so, what's the best ROM?
I use my note as my daily driver but still use the cappy as a back up and as dedicated podcast mp3 player. Best thing I've ever done is put slim bean on it. It's in the dev section.

After being on a gb rom for a long time, I made the jump to a jb rom and it has breathed new life to this phone. It's amazingly fast and smooth. I'm running the 4.1.2 slim bean rom and it's excellent. It's practically feels like a new phone.
I think installing any of the jb roms will make this device amazing.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
I've heard Good things about slimbean, but have not tested it. Hellybean 4.2.1 right is working wonders for me! Also get a extended battery or spare. I got the gold batter which is really only like 1800mah in reality but $9 and fast shipping and gives a boost
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
Figured I've give my $0.02 as well
Ran Slim Bean for a couple weeks and then went on to try Captivating just to try it. Gave it a day, but didn't like it much. Went to CM 10.1 and have been on it ever since. Slim Bean might be as good or better than 10.1 to me, but I get better performance and stability from 10.1. Slim Bean will definitely make it feel like a brand new phone with the dpi change and all.
I think everybody here would recommend changing to a custom ROM (hey, that's what we're here for, right?). Which one is best is very personal to the user, so try some of them and see which one you like best, <strikethrough>most</strikethrough> all of the available ROMs are awesome compared to stock. The most important thing is to read carefully how to successfully flash your phone before you go at it.
Honestly for me personally, the stock MDL ROM with some tweaks/KT-SGS4 Kernel/mods is freakn smooooothh as heck! I see no need for a custom ROM... yet! So far I'm loving this phone and I've only had it for a day, can;t wait for that next update hopefully we get it soon to fix some stuff. Other than that, this thing is smooth as butter!
I haven't even rooted mine yet and it's been over a week. I usually root the first day or two.

I kinda agree... Except there are some cool root apps... And I wanted to uninstall a bunch of bloat apps.
That's why I went with team Sonic's freegs4.... It just like stock with some basic tweaks and some apps are uninstallable.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
I will agree that this phone offers the best stock experience I've ever had. If you're a tweaker like me though, custom ROM's are a must. I hightly recommend Blu Kuban. AOSP ROM's are also quite enjoyable, especially with Halo.
Also, man I wish the Hyperdrive ROM that's out for the Verizon variant would make its way to us. That ROM looks amazing.

You think you got something smooth, run a custom rom with the tweaks, you will not go stock again. It is up you. You can always go back to stock, run WanamLite, Basically stock with the tweaks, super fast, and just as stable. Sorry, but you are missing out.

Lol, some of us bought it for the hardware - I think the whole eye watching thing is gimmick, and the pedometer is consistently off. AOSP really delivers in terms of speed and customization, which many desire. Speed + Customization > Gimmicks.
I'd also like to add that I'm still running stock so....
+1 stock. I like gimmicks

Every person commenting in this thread I think is why we all belong to XDA Developers. Do what you will with your device and enjoy it, we have many options available to us, thanks to all the great developers here. It personally took me a month to root my phone. And right now I can't really imagine having a AOSP ROM on it.

Absolutely no ASOP for me and definitely no CM but that's just me. If I were buying strictly for the hardware, I might very well have gone a different route. I bought for the hardware and the software.

Just like life you can live life the way it is or tweak it and make it your own life the way u want with the options available.
can i root after i get my SG4 flashed from US Cellular to Criket without messing up the flash.
Also Can i install custom Roms after i get my SG4 flashed to criket without messing up the flash.
once im flashed and running on criket i am too scared to mess it up
please let me know hwat i should do. i can't even find someone that can flash it yet. its very hard
im very sad i love this phone.
Cm/aosp is always smoother since there is no bloat, compare 1.5GB for stock rooted to 300mbs for an aosp based ROM. But the features are gone. And the camera isn't as good.

I am unfamiliar with most of the devs with this phone. If Calkulin was here, I'd instantly know his great reputation from past experience. Right now, I stick with stock rooted and hotspot modded MDL. Stock kernel for compatibility issues with triangle away. Custom recovery for flashing and nandroid. I'm sure I could get better performance with custom, but I haven't ran across anything yet that impressed me. I haven't been very adventurous either. No disrespect towards devs, I just haven't been in this phone's scene long enough to learn reputations well enough yet. Calkulin"s roms did 99% of what I wanted a rom to do. Unfortunately he went onto HTC territory.

I'm using freegs4 because it fits my needs.
I love the 90s good times
stock rooted with a custom kernel.. once freegs4 is updated ill deff give it a flash...
Just flashed the new Premium Rom and I like it it a lot. I like all the Roms though. lol
I've played with several roms and keep coming back to stock rom, Koontz (sp?) kernel, and a few of the mods.
Stock deodexed MDL. KT kernel, with a BUNCH of mods installed (especially Xposed Installer with Nottach module). This might be the one phone I will not need to run a custom ROM for! It's awesome stock with a bunch of tweaks and modded out.
My favorite setup so far is stock odexed MDL with root + mods, such as CrossBreeder, Xposed Framework (and Nottach & Tweakbox module), ktoonsez kernel, and Viper4Android audio.
The phone is stable, fast, no lag, and battery life is excellent.

I had that exact set up too... then I thought my phone was messed up bc dual shot kept freezing up on me and I thought it was faulty hardware... but it turns out that KT Kernel is causing the issue bc ktsoonsez's kernel souces are newer than our firmware so it's causing problems with the dual shot... so I'm running stock kernel for now until that gets fixed!

You only have to use one. lol I'll probably flash Sonic when he updates. Thinking on trying Revolt next. I'm a flash whore.
I'm really enjoying Premium ROM. It sounds like he'll be adding some flashable themes soon as well.
Trust me though, when Hyperdrive makes its way to our phone, which I'm told will be soon, I'll be checking it out as well.
But really, all the TW ROM's are nice. Blu Kuban is always a really nice change of pace and I usually keep my backup of that one so I can quickly run it at any time.
The AOSP ROM's are coming together nicely as well, though I'm holding off on making them my daily until the Pure Google S4 comes out. Then those ROM's will be stable just like TW.
