Best ROM as of right now?

Whats the best rom available right now for the N1? I haven't tested my N1 with anything in a while been running MIUI but I'm finding it to be sort of laggy now with apps installed.

Fastest? Hmm, pretty much any CM7 self-kang.
This one by samuaz is really fast: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416894

Is that the most stable rom available for nexus one right now?

with multiple full wipes to include system both are stable for me
with ICS by samuaz you need to follow op page exactly

Temaseks latest CM7 Kang with scroll zip is BLAZING

I use now ICS by samuaz, it's fast and really stable. But it's an alpha version!
When you think it's important to have a stable rom, then
use CM7. CM7 roms are as stable as stock, but better ;-)

worth upgrading to ICS or JB?
hello. I realize this thread hasn't been active in a while, but I am thinking to bring back my Nexus One from the grave so I can have a backup phone for my daughter to play with in the car/plane. I wanted to ask if it is worth installing ICS or JB ROMs that are out there. I just have the stock ROM in there now and I always struggled with low memory and lag with some newer apps, that's why I've upgraded phones (I've have a Galaxy Nexus now).
I don't have intentions to put a SIM card in there, so I don't really care about phone call features.. only purely from a processing and lightweight standpoint.
Has anybody played enough with GB vs ICS and/or JB and weighed if it's worth upgrading? I'm assuming that it's worth it because so many developers still have Nexus One ROMs... that's why I would just go ahead and install it, but then I'm thinking again if it's just going to bog down the phone if I'm going to only use it for simple games.
Thanks in advance!!

Hello! I have installed the CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.2 v6.0 that is based on CyanogenMod and Evervolv, and works fine for me. I also have installed all the /data partition in the SD card with the A2SD script that is incorporated in the ROM... it generates some few lags, but I didn't have had any problem of lack of space again.
In my opinion, this is the ROM of JB that best preserves the native Android interface, and in my case is stable (until 7 days without to require a reboot!).
Other JB ROMs that users frequently use are PARANOIDANDROID and PixelDroid.

Thanks for the quick response! That is the ROM I was thinking of as well. However, just as a comparison, I'm thinking to flash a clean version of GB back onto the phone as well. Any recommendations on any GB ROMs as well? Thanks!

Sorry, but I can't help on it. I didn't install any GB ROM further than the stock ROM. In my opinion, I think that a stable, complete and functional ROM might be CyanogenMod 7.2. Maybe other XDA members can help you better on it...

No problem. I'll probably end up trying both out. Thanks again for the response. By the way, what do you use your N1 for now or is that you main phone? I was playing around with it yesterday and I still like it a lot - I always liked the trackball.

This is my main phone. In several times I though changing to other new Nexus device, but the screen size of new devices is too big for me! I like a screen size from 3.7 to 4.0, that is good to read mails, a brief navigation in the Internet, and other minor issues. For other intensive uses, I have my tablet Nexus 10 or my laptop.

[Q] Is it worth upgrading to ICS yet?

At the moment, my nexus is running Cyanogenmod, although I am thinking about changing to a ICS rom, but I was thinking that they would have a lot of problems and not able for daily use, but after looking around, that has completely changed, now, here are some questions
Does ICS work faster than other type of roms like CM for example?
Using blackrose: Am I still safe to use this program even though I have a locked bootloader?

you can install wid locked bootloader. but you might loose recovery. so u might need to fastboot recovery
ICS for N1 is still in final stages of development(issues wid video recording & playback). it might not be as perfect as GB roms. but it will be cool.
u can give a try. and if not satisfied revert back to ur current rom

I was running BCM ICS CM9 for a while but found it to be a bit slow in comparison to GB roms. I ended up switching back to CM 7.2 once it reached a stable release since it has superior performance in my experience. The ICS development is coming along fantastically though and I expect to be switch back in the future; probably after a stable release is dropped. If performace is your highest concern I would recommend waiting, if you just want some ICS goodness then by all means you should switch.
In fairness, I'm using the original SD card that came with my N1. Considering all my apps were being run from the SD card, including system apps, it might not be a fair comparison. Perhaps upgrading the SD card would yield better results... I don't know.

I am running texasice ICS rom and even though there is some slight lag you can still run a fully functional (in my daily use) ICS rom. I guess it's a matter for you to try it and decide if you like it or not. If you backup your current rom switching from one to another is a matter of minutes.

Rock stable and close to stock ROM

I just rooted a friend's phone and was wondering what would you recommend me. He doesn't know how to change ROMs so I am looking for something rock stable, close to stock, nothing fancy, just something that works without any problems.

It depends on what type of experience you want. Are you looking to alleviate some of the issues that plagued the stock ROM with its poor I/O response time? What is your reason for replacing stock if you want something similar to stock?
CM7 or CM10 are both good ROMs; CM7 significantly improves the performance over stock, it has the same UI as Eclair/Froyo/Gingerbread and it had extra (useful) features.
CM10 is out of alpha now (I think) and provides the latest Android experience, similar to what you would get on a new phone. ICS/JB was a significant redesign over the ROM that was stock for SGS.

I'm not satisfied with CM ROMs, I ran them on both my HTC Desire and Nexus S and they didn't feel smooth. I want something stock with basic root settings.
The reason he wanted a custom ROM was because his phone was heating much and rebooted.

I would say Slim ICS with the setup on my sig.. first ICS rom ive been using after GB and just loving it, VERY stable and smooth, Only downside that pop ups on my mindd right now is you cant record 720p video if you want more RAM with the bigmem patch enabled.. BUT thats only IF you want it enabled

[Q] Nexus One roms

I've asked a similar question before, but this question is a bit different
I've got the HTC Tattoo and the Google Nexus One, and I primarily use the Nexus One, due to better processors, resolution, et cetera. And therefore I want a good rom for the phone, so it's more usefull for me. I've got the newest Cyanogen mod (7.2), but I was wondering if there was any good 4.0 (or higher) Jellybean or Gingerbread (Jellybean prefered) roms out there, that doesn't require resizing the partition. If not, any good 2.3 (or higher) roms were out there? I'm just looking for the best to suit my phone, and I really like the Nexus One.
Thanks in advance
P.S. Sorry for bad English, it isn't my native language, and I'm kind of tired, so there's probably a lot of errors

i can try
Evervolv Jellybean http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762790 ( base of all JB roms for N1)
or QND MIUI GB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084726
or MIUI JB from MIUI.us

+1 for Evervolv Jellybean. You'll need a fast sdcard if you have a lot of apps and want it to be useful tho. Set up isn't as straight forward as Gingerbread ROMs so make sure you have lots of time to go through the setup process.

Agreed. I installed an Evervolv JB 4.1.2 on my N1 and quickly noticed performance suffer on account of use of a2sd and storage of the apps and app data on the SD card - which, for the N1 + JB, you really cannot avoid.
I just ordered a UHS-1 Sandisk Ultra MicroSD card, which should help immensely.

ROM which can be considered Most complete GB ROM

HD+ most stable roms?

Had my parents send me their hd+ so I could try and improve performance. I'm new to the nook and it's roms.Right now it's stock and it's weak.. laggy .. just plain poor in general. I'm confident in installing roms but there are quite a few ranging from 4.1 and up. I'd of course like a stock Android 4.x base. Are any of them rock solid stable? Of course I'd like to have 4.4 on it if it's at least pretty stable.. they will be using it mainly for internet cruising on wifi and that's about it. Any info would be greatly appreciated.. I plan on starting in a couple hours on the upgrade and it would be nice to have some direction on which rom to start with. thanks!

First check which emmc chip you got (download emmc brick check).
There is a possibility to brick your device with the MAG2GA chip and firmware 05 combination.
I'd recommend u the latest 10.2 nightly, it runs flawless and bugfree.
Some instructions:
Download these two for ur bootable SDcard cwm:
Win32DiskImager (tool for writing boot image to SD card)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager
NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-4GB-rev4-(05.15.13).zip (boot image for SD card)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613
Step to Step -> unzip the "NookHDplus-bootable-CWM-6028-for-stock-4GB-rev4.zip" -> write the image to your sd card with win32DisImager (try to take a 4 gig SDCard (worked best for me) and after that copy your wished rom and gapps onto the SD.
Now ur device should start in Recovery and u should be able to flash your new rom+gapps!
recommended 10.2 nightly rom: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=ovation
gapps: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

edit: 4.4.2 is imo not stable for daily use and lacks features.

I don't understand why people are saying 4.4.2 isn't stable. I'm running succulent's build and it's rock solid. No random reboots, no bugs at all. But that's just my experience.

it's lacking many features and believe me you cant compare a fresh new build with one with much more time spend in.

I can certainly compare succulent's new build to other older builds. Just because it's newer and not as "established" doesn't matter. What matters is how well it works and it works perfectly for me. It may not have all the features CM10.2 has, but what I want in a rom is one that is smooth, stable, and bug free and it fits my needs perfectly. Back to the OP's question though, I think CM10.2 would probably be the best option for them since other people seem to be having some amount of difficulty with the 4.4 builds.

thanks for the reply's .. ended up throwing verygreen/cm11 on it.. didn't check emmc, got lucky I guess. Rom is fantastic.. haven't run into anything.. tested most things and it's running almost as silky smooth as my lg g2 with 4.4.
