LG Stock or CM? - LG Optimus 4X HD

Recently i switched from my evo 3D to O4X ,ive been using the lg stock rom with various kernels for a while ,yesterday i flashed CM 10.1 it seems nice but lg's soft just kinda seems more personalized and feature rich ,with cm i feel kinda blank ,like its just not that fun to use it ,i know its the stock android but still... Which one is the best in your opinion? Which combo setup suits the best for you?

I switched from evo 3D too... First i were using stock for a while, then i flashed cm 10.1, but after 1 week i flashed stock rom via KDZ, because i like stock rom more than custom roms on o4x.

Both have Pros and Cons. At the end it's your choice of taste.
I know I could flash CM and give my phone a somewhat boost. But honestly, I do like the LG Stock interface more than the CM one.
Right now I'm running v20A with Idoka kernel, some tweaks trough Trickster app and my battery + performance has improved quite a bit.

I like a device for its long battery,
Im on cm10.1 newest nigthlys
Running rock solid good
Set my cpu to 1000mhz and stock kernel
Battery is very satisfying for me
I do miss the lg stock rom sometimes but i dont like the bloatware and battery life

You can do it anytime while you can boot into software upgrade mode by holding volume down and inserting the usb.

[Q] What ROM I should choose?

Hi,
I just bought a SGS+ and I am curious what ROM shoud I choose?(I`ve seen a lot here) Because stock ROM lag`s every time I unlock phone, sometimes apps lag a couple of seconds and I would preffer ICS based ROM but I can try JellyBean too.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys!
Thanks.
Really comes down to your preferences. Some are feature rich, some are slimmed down, still others are aimed at gamers and performance. Personally I'm enjoying the Tsunami builds in the 4.1.2 flavor. Just check out a few until one suits you.

There are many good ROMs, you should try them and decide what is the best for you.
If you want more performance or if you don't want lag, you can flash a kernel with OC support, you can change the governor and the IO scheduler.
Good luck
I too own a SGS + and for me Bio Hazard is the perfect ICS Rom.
While Gigabread + is the perfect Gingerbread Rom.
But that are my views, it may not be the perfect match for you, so just try out all the ROMs, and one last thing, Jellybean at the sec is a little buggy so stick with 2.3 or 4 !
Ty Brahmnoor! I've tryed Biohazzard and it is a great ROM! Till now!
the topic can be closed! ty all!

no probs !
I strongly recommend using Jelly Bean ROMs rather than ICS ones. There are several reasons for that because JB is clearly an upgrade to ICS and not to mention the notorius ICS media bug.
You can start working with cm rom's i find them very attractive. although flashed today MagicBean rom, pretty nice to.
All you need to do is start working in that, keep on trying
My two favs...and the only 2 i switch between after trying almost everything there is.
1. CM9 + Devil Kernel (ICS)
2. Saurom + Semaphore 2.7.4 (gingerbread)
Currently using Saurom + semaphore 2.7.4
Just recently flashed this and im very impressed and pleased.

Guys! This is an SGS+ I9001 and not an i9000! Stop telling the OP to flash i9000 ROMS oO.

I would suggest trying out the JB ROM by Ivendor (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2000828). I'm pretty happy with it, especially since I do not use the features mentioned in that thread as buggy/not working.
The overall performance is awesome, the user interface is very smooth and battery life is better than I had with CM9 ROM.

Custom ROM suggestions!

Hi all,
I've been a big supporter of the stock ROM ever since I got my Note with 4.0.4 (pre-facelift). Then there came to UX facelift (still 4.0.4), which added some lag. Recently I updated my phone to 4.1.2. Transition animations, launching of apps, etc became so laggy that it's hardly bearable (for me at least).
Now I'm wondering what are some of you guys' suggestions on custom ROM? I want to stick with a really fast TW ROM or AOSP ROM. I've looked into CM10, but it has issues with video recording, which I use often. Does anyone know of a ROM that is at least ICS and majorly stable and fast? Would anyone suggest CM9?
Thanks a lot!!

Looks like Alliance is a popular one. Since it's based on TW's JB, how smooth is it compared to the stock tw 4.1.2 (LM5 specifically)?
I would also like some inputs on CM9? Thanks!
Best ROM threads always turn into Pissing Matches. Best thing you can do is go to Dev section and read a few OPs. Pick a few that you like and read the last 10 pages or so for bugs. Narrow it down to one you want and start reading.

[Q] Safest-best- kernel+rom for note gt-n7000?

Hello. i want to sure not to mess with my father's not rooted galaxy note gt-n7000 so my questoin maybe lame but i had a bad experience rooting gs2 and without
i need to know what is the best and the safest kernel for the note. and best custom rom 4.1.2 based on touchwiz
i alredy downloaded Kernel_CM10.1_20130320_n7000_CWM.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789397 this will work fine ?
Thank you
If you flash that kernel you will have boot loop for sure that is a cm10.1 ROM kernel not touchwiz. And you have to be rooted to flash. I don't mess with toichwiz to much I use a cm10.1 ROM I build my self and theme my self but in the terms of kernels for touchwiz look into philz kernels they are safe and I do believe they can be flashed from stock recovery and will root the phone. As for ROMs they are all safe. JUST DONT FLASH ANY ROMS FROM STOCK ICS KERNELS. and also if you look into the how to root part of the ROM forum you will find a lot of info. Then just research the different ROMs to see which one is right for your use.

thanks for the info.. :good: ill do more reading .. i dont wanna mess things up..
hope PhilZ Touch will do the work
for TW JB there are only 2 kernels .. .Philz and Speedmod JB
Go for Philz, Best one (My experience) You will get good benchmark results, better battery life. Good rooted phone.

to be honest i don't see the point getting CM10.x and wanting all the stock stuff....
maby you could try a different kernel like iodak/werewolf on your stock rom. To get a lot of settings done on the cpu/gpu side.
it will improve your batterylife and preformance in my opinion and still having all the "great" options from stock.
just my 2 cents.
Wim
Now that i think, you are totally right, it havnt any point change to aosp like CM, and conserv stock stuff.. What i want to, is to have a better rom, improve the battery, something smother and diferent, Than my Phone go faster that it can, conserving those kind of stuff that i mentioned before. You recomend me to install a diferent kernel? On a OS stock 4.1.2? How can i do that? Or if you know a rom with all The caracteristics that i want to, but whit The versión 4.2.2 o if is 4.1.2 be something that you can say: WOW i love it *-* Jaja.

[Q] Fastest ROM?

I just turned back to my old SGS, because my One M8 is on RMA and I'd like to know your subjective opinion on which is the fastest ROM out there. I don't really care much about features, just want a stable base.
Gingerbread is really fast on this phone, but I'd like to use something newer, namely ICS or newer...
I tried last CM 11 M7 and that was just unusably slow. Didn't think that this phone has a problem with KitKat.
So I tried CM 9.1, because people here said that it's faster than KK... and it was okay, but it was definitely slower than official GB, especially after I installed just about 20 apps.
Now I'm clueless, is there anything 4.x faster then these? Should I stay on stock?
Thanks
same situation with you..
broke my nexus 4 and now waiting for lg g2...
so galaxy s out of the box.
think will try something like ics...
Try Nameless. Word of caution though. Change the boot animation. I usually do this and delete the original rom animation before flashing to phone.
The rom is fast and smooth, currently 4. 4. 3. The original boot animation does cause problems though so make sure to change it.

Yeah specifically nameless.
On initial boot after flashing it is fine, but booting after that bootloops or simply hangs for an age. I saw a post on the nameless thread saying they had left it for 3 hours I think they said.
I extracted the omni boot animation which works fine, but I have tried others and have had the same problem.
Other than that the Rom is flawless.

I'm using Mackay CM9 based rom, very fast and stable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660668
Archidroid is the fastest I have used highly recommended
Sent from my C2105 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes, Mackay ICS 2014 is on my i9000 also the fastest.
SauROM (Gingerbread based) is the second fastest.
No JB or KK is as fast as either of those ROMs.
