I looked through some threads here and there but, there's nothing to specific, just suggestions so I thought I would make a thread
What's the best ROM to run on a Motorola Droid on Android 2.2.1 build FRG83D in your opinion?
I am a diehard bugless beast user. I would suggest you do what I did and try out multiple ROMS as you may have a completely different opinion than I.
CM 6.1.2, UD 2.5.0 & Project Elite 4.2 are all very solid builds of FRG83D with each having it's own unique features.
If I had to choose just 1 then I would say CM, as that's what I'm running now.
CyanogenMod 6.1.2

I personally like Xperia stock based roms!
*Real ICS R6 By Sandy7
*ICS Pureness V5 by Sandy7
But the pureness rom is a Battery eater!

Er...you may be in the wrong forum...
I have found the CM9 nightly to be the most stable for playing games. I've tried the CM10 and others but as soon as I launch a online game, the TP will generally freeze up.
I play a game called "Tanked" which is online and a great tank killing game against other players. Lots of fun...great graphics, and addicting.
If someone has a suggestion as to a more stable, yet fast rom for this type of gaming, please indicate which you use. I will try and load it up and give you a quick review of stability vs the cm9.
Thanks

Same here. My kids love playing games and I have problem with the T-pad crashing on CM10. I've tried every CM10 ROM available. Each has it's own unique advantanges, but hate seeing Tp constantly crash to mboot.
After rolling back to CM9 nightly, I am not longer having this problem. It's not as smooth as CM10, but kids are happy.
Thanks the Dev for trying to port JB. Hope they continue to get things fully straighten out.
Best roms
This One
cm-9-20130203-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
Bug free?
Mic works
Camera works
I'm surprised there aren't more posts in this thread..BUT...
I go from CM9 nightly to nightly and they seem to be the best. Very smooth and non-problematic (for the most part).
I use unofficial cm10 03/08. Works great for me.
I would like to try different ROMs, but I can't seem to find one as stable as CM, any ideas?

You may use RandomROM OR Schizoid OR AOKPCM10REMIX_DEC_0412.
These are all the most stable that I have tried
I am using CDMoncrieff 's CM10.1, AOSP version. It's good enough that I'll be using it as my daily driver. I don't use Bluetooth (as far as I know, it's the only thing not working), so that doesn't affect me.

Ditto. On CDmoncrieff's 10.1 AOSP since yesterday. Was on SickleROM CM10 before that. Liked that one as well.

Got it to work, although the preview is upside-down. However, that is already a known issue acknowledged by CDMoncrieff. I am loving it so far.
Schizoid has tha most features...
I am now using SGA'S 4.2.2, 04/02 version. Applied the hd zip, and it does everything I need.
Battery life is incredibly good.
Hello, I just decided to put Android on my touchpad, but I don't know which ROM to go with first. I just want something with the best features available while being stable, I don't know if I should go with CM9 or CM10 since from what I see the CM10 ROM's seem to be more buggy? As-well as which Android version, since the latest is 4.2.2 but it still seems to be in its early stages of development.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the answer, I flashed it on my touchpad, however I noticed that flash is really buggy on CM10, it just gives me some horizontal lines, and when I full screen it theres only like a 10% chance of it working, since most of the time its just a black screen or it just flickers over and over and freezes, sometimes its even crashed my touchpad. Would it be best to go to a CM9 rom, or is there some work-around for this problem?
Hey guys I am on the verge of getting this phone, however going through the development sections, I dont see an up to date ROM? I was hoping that there would be an AOSP rom that was kept updated.
Please dont flame me, I am trying to simply find out if this phone has good development support.
None of them are really that good yet. Some folks have had success with the CM10 port, but no bluetooth audio is a no go for me.
The Nexus Pizza ROM is great if you don't use GVoice for voicemail.

I'm running the ported cm10.1 from xt926 from epinter http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2243812 and it works great! All Bluetooth functions work fine for me. I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2262726 to root, unlock bootloader, and flash cwm. Everything worked like a charm.
I take no credit for: Roms,apps,icons, i just made it easy to find the links for you.
*Check out this ROM , been using it for a almost a month & it's really great
* [4.2.2] Liquid Smooth ROM base of aosp : download link http://d-h.st/users/jsnweitzel/?fld_id=19980#files flash it via CWM
* you must flash the latest gapps 10.1 http://goo.im/gapps flash via CWM
* it's really fast you get more free ram has nova launcher as stock laucher also has Halo feature not app , but the feature installed within the rom itself & also you have PIE
* here is the new google camera app aswell , Keep in mind you must delete the current gallery2.apk using root explorer frist go to system folder than go to app folder look for gallery2.apk delete it , then install the this: http://db.tt/xjdaanUq
* i may also suggest installing it with the keylimepie theme: http://db.tt/dV1gQvYn to make it look awesome ( install it like any other apk file then go to phone settings then go to theme & select the theme)
also with these icons you will have such a clean interface: http://db.tt/gn0a4UBW install it like any other apk file , then go to nova laucher settings , then go to look and feel & install the icons : reboot may be needed i am not sure, reboot just in case
& last but not least bootanimation sure the liquid smooth bootanimation is awesome but everyone want a google experience so anyway here is the new google phones bootanimation: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7ziwskci57wuwbi/Google_Bootanimation-flashable_zip%20%281%29.zip flash it via CWM RECOVERY WIPE CACHE FIRST.
also a new google play interface dpi very nice , made: http://db.tt/mbmV9J2Z FLASH VIA CWM RECOVERY WIPE CACHE FIRST.
if you did not like the liquid smooth ROM there is also this one
it looks cool , but i have not tested it out but i'll just throw it in right there : http://d-h.st/users/timpohladthomas/?fld_id=21048#files
anyway hope this all helps , should have made a new thred haha also if you need screenshot of how it all looks just let me know

pac runs bad for me alot of random FC don't know why tho , i have tried AOKP by youngun & liquid smooth & the revolt ROM those 3 have run perfect for me
I second PAC. Most of the FC's have been fixed and as far as I can tell its the best 4.2.2 ROM here. Youngunn did amazing with his HoloBlur and when compared with the time frame he released it, it the most solid one. One of the reason it's so solid, though is because it runs 4.1.2.
So I'll recommend PAC or HoloBlur. And for the love of (insert something you treasure here) don't you use SafeStrap to flash it.
As for ROMs not being up to date, 4.2.2 is the latest ROM usable. Unless you get a Samsung Galaxy S4. That runs 4.3 (or will be soon) but there's only readable teaser releases for the software on other phones

By default I must say Tranquil Rom. It's really customizable fully themed. It doesn't have the newest OTA incorporated yet though.
Viper is the best stock rooted & includes the newest OTA. Hope I helped

this here.
But if you want my opinion it's stock rom.
Rapture rom for me
Stock, though not a rom, is the most stable.
Stability depends on the user phone as well as what the user does with it. Rapture works great on my phone but I have seen complaints of instability. Firekat also work great on my phone, as well as dynamic and all the ports. Yet, I have seen complaints of instability. Now the AOSP based roms are truly unstable because they are in the testing, beta phase considering they are not a native build for our Touchwiz based samsung device. Not every device is made the same so flash and see which loves your phone the best.
Hope that helps.

Rapture ran the smoothest for me and would be my go to but I ran into signal issues for some reason. Firekat and infamous I run right now and haven't had any issues yet.
Fire Kat V8 for sure.
Be sure to follow instructions to enhance battery life too and you should be getting about 8 hours of screen time.

I see in the fire Kat OP It seems to be a little confusing as to how to install. Is there a base ROM that flashes before V8?
Mega recommends a clean flash.
Basically just wiping cache, Dalvick, and data in the team win recovery.
But you can flash firekat over anj or ank.
I finally flashed the whole ank update. Bootloader and all.
That's what I flashed firekat v8 on top of:
The additional tweaks in the op2 are tight, and increase battery life a lot, but installing firekat is just like installing any other rom.

AICP is based off of AOSP, all the custom roms that are not TouchWiz are AOSP based roms even CM. AICP (Android Ice Cold Project) is a custom rom with a lot of customization options they are not all added as of yet but they certainly are being added gradually.
Definitely stock

They are all stable for the people using them. Some minor bugs might be there, but might not be noticed by others. So by asking this you will get a list of all the popular ROMs. You need to make a backup, read the development threads to find one that has all the features YOU want and try it. If you find a bug, search that thread to see if a fix or workaraound was posted. You will find much more self satisfaction and knowledge in this path of discovery.
