Install CyanogenMod, don't look back - Nexus 4 General

I wasn't sure if I wanted CyanogenMod on the Nexus 4. I tried the stock android for a week or so and was dithering on it. Finally I decided to try CM (I've used it on all my previous Nexus devices) and I was reminded why it's just plain awesome! Within minutes I was delighting in the additional options, the extra preferences, the ability to drag down at the right to open the switch screen, all that stuff. It's pure magic.
If you're a tinkerer, I recommend it. The monthly release has been pretty stable for me so far.

Cm is a great rom but I keep returning to PA

I like the stock, but there were lots of things I realised after installing that I'd missed from earlier CyanogenMod versions. I like the additional customisability of it. I can see that stock makes more sense if you want a phone to work reliably with minimal tweaking. Personally, I like to be able to configure it just the way I like it, to tune and tweak the power icons, the various panels, and so on. For example, I particularly like being able to disable the search bar on the homescreen and stretch the launcher to fill the screen. But horses for courses...

I'm not clear on exactly what it's focus is. It's all about tweaking the size of apps? Or it's about total customisation? I couldn't make much sense of the homepage or find a wikipedia page on it.

[ROM] RedPill by Dorian - Only Link Inside

Hi Guys,
It's raining ROMS for the Atrix.
Dorian is in the process of uploading one more GB ROM.
v2 uploading
A lot of things have changed with V2. Here's a short change-log:
Tweaked Google Talk integration w/video. Is now more stable than before, with no noticeable issues.
Tweaked dialer interface. This one is a WIP. I'm attempting to cover all the blur parts that I intend on leaving behind in AOSP theming. It's still perfectly functional, just not quite done.
Email. Exchange integration is now implemented. It won't be using Blur or Motorola's backend. I've tested this feature with a test account from one of my Captivate users. No issues AFAIK.
Fixed camera orientation in front facing camera view. Also now truly supports 1080p recording with a slightly higher bitrate than before...
Blur "Social" app has been removed, along with all the filler bloat that accompanies it.
Vlingo has been removed.
GOLauncherEX is now standard, replacing LauncherPro. GOLauncher is smooth as glass! O_O
More is coming... along with deeper theming of the remaining blur apps.

The developer of this rom, Dorian, has a solid background in rom development - I believe it was with the Captivate - and is well known by some of the staff on Atrix Forums, who speak very highly of the quality of his work. I'm downloading it now, and plan on giving it a shot, so I'll let you guys know how it goes.

I think it is mostly a theme. He replaced the launcher, but a quick look through the system folder shows he did not replace any other blur pieces, which is understandable moto has a stranglehold on the preinstalled apps.

Because this is not a happy family place. If he misspells one word he would get screwed in the ass here. LOL, anyways he seems to stay on his own website and the smaller forums like the ones dedicated too the Captivate and Atrix. He has the best roms for the Captivate Ive been told.

[Q] Gataxy Note: What's the most clean and unmodified ICS ROM? Any Nexus ported one?

Guys, sorry if this is a dumb question. And sorry about my English.
Well, I need to say that I'm really jealous about Galaxy Nexus users and their original Android, with those main buttons on the screen, etc.
So, could you please say what's the most original Android ROM for Galaxy Note? The most similar possible to the original Galaxy Nexys ROM. Including those screen buttons!
Thanks so much!
If you want a pure vanilla AOSP galaxy Nexus like.. There's several options... Personally I'm a big fan of cm9.. That's what I run on my gnex my gnote and my gtab 10.1

AOKG roms have more modifications than CM9. CM9 is more like AOSP that can run on any device. AOKP is like AOSP with highly customizable user experience, lots of new features to do with the launcher, system etc.

Ok, got it! After watching YouTube reviews about AOKP I saw that I can even change/add those softwares buttons in the botton of the screen. Pretty nice!
In terms of stability/bugs, at this time, CM9 is better than AOKP, right? Or they are the same?
My personal experience was that AOKP had a very slight performance edge but it suffered from SOD issues. CM9 has been stable and I am very happy with it.

Yeah, you are right, but this may not be a serious problem for me as I never use S-Pen. And this is so true that I have Galaxy Note since march and the only time I used S-Pen for real was playing with a friend that game that we use "#" and put "x" and "o" in the spaces.

After reading a lot, this is what I think also. Same stuff of CM9 + lots of customization. What I'm afraid is that I'm reading more bug/reboots/problems reports on AOKP.
And don't you prefer the original ICS visual? Don't know why, but I didn't like this Galaxy S 3 design, both in phisical and software terms!

Well to be honest I haven't noticed any bug or random reboots yet...to make it more clear..I am using it as my daily driver....so if I had any issues...I would have switched to any other Rom....and as far as looks goes....that's the beauty of the cm9 based roms...there are a lot of themes out there...including tw lookalike and even sense 4 lookalike...so for me aokp is the best out there....

Thanks again! I'll give a try to AOKP and wait for Jelly Bean on CM10.
And I need to say that even now, using the official Samsung LPT 4.0 ROM, I have sometimes some problems, even random reboots! So these kind of problems really can happen everywhere, with everyone, anytime.
But one thing is for sure. My goodbye to Samsung ROMs! (At least I don't use S-Pen!)
The pen works fine on CM9. You just can't use any of the button functions, but that's not a huge deal to me. Palm rejection was finally added, which is what I was waiting for the most.

Yea its pretty awesome, I've been using it on my N7 and my Rezound
N7 dpi is 213 so its HDPI
Looking at some of things most of them are already possible without this. And some of them are just buzzwords to get you excited. Its a cool concept it might become something worth looking into later but right now im not too sure about it.

What do you guys think of the MIUI v5 for our N4 ?

I'm currently satisfied with Stock, after trying 99% of the roms out there.
Now I want to flash MIUI v5 (3.9.13 is the latest as far as i know) and see if it is any good.
I see that MIUI isn't very popular here as it is on the Gnex forums or other devices such as sony and samsung forums.
What do you guys think about it - Good or bad ? please state why
Used it, was good but definitely not as slick and fast as stock. Also the recent task manager makes your widgets freeze I'd you clear all.

Im not very font of having all apps in my homepage...and the animations make everything slow down a bit. Besides this i like it very much. Waiting for offical rom...

I just reverted to stock also. I did not experience lag at all, but the overall experience was slow. Ios and EVEN Ubuntu touch feels faster and snappier that that.
I use MIUI as my daily driver and I've got to say it is AMAZING!
BTW to get the Gallery and other devices to recognize your SD data you need a media scanner app
I use the Trinity Kernel and it rocks with great performance and battery life that fits my needs :3
I don't OC the CPU on this Kernel but I do have the GPU OC'd to 480 MHz
All in all it may not be stock android
But its worth a try :3

I'm currently satisfied with Stock, after trying 99% of the roms out there.
Now I want to flash MIUI v5 (3.9.13 is t
Nhe latest as far as i know) and see if it is any good.
I see that MIUI isn't very popular here as it is on the Gnex forums or other devices such as sony and samsung forums.
What do you guys think about it - Good or bad ? please state why

Why this is not popular here? Cuz there is no official rom for n4. All the versions you see here are ports. Miui experience is thus not the best, but its not too bad. Personally i am hooked to more features like pie and halo etc thus making miui a little less attractive.
What about the Miui roms you see on miui.com and xiaomi.eu/, are there any differences? Both are 3.9.13 and JB...
MIUI is ugly! Chinese imitation of IOS....

I respect your opinion...however, i just saw iso7 ...it is beautiful but it looks like a cheap imitation of Android Miui. This is not an imatition of IOS... THIS IS ANDROID!!

It's a great rom I'm till using it and love it. I mean it doesn't have that buttery smooth scrolling as the stock vanilla, but it's barley noticeable . Thanks goes to Datsun.510 for porting this rom onto the nexus 4
Looks pretty sweet...I've used the v5 theme, but the experience itself looks compelling, as do the themes:

Not a big fan of MIUI, kinda reminds me of iOS.
The themes look nice tho but I rather stick to the vanilla android like experience.

Not the best rom out there. Then again that very sentence is subjective. I prefer a less skinned aosp type of rom.
looks good but it works bad in my opinion and since i'm not a big fan of chinese mobile, no offence but let's stick with the identity of pure google! :cyclops:
I fell in love with miui with my Galaxy SL i9003 then with my xperia arc s lt18i and now with my nexus, where battery life, interface and smoothness is incredible... Now I am not using it, but I allways come back
Ehhhhh its OK pretty simple and elegant but it has negatives also...in my opinion its mainly extra useless apps and no app drawer
