Hi guys! I currentl have an abandoned Carbon 4.4 ROM and I have problems with apps (can't install some apps, can't move to sd card etc), so I want to change it to something else. I see there are many kitkat ROMs out there, I just want the most stable one that has no general issues, because I see some have problems with camera, others with sound etc. Is there a Kitkat ROM for my S Advance out there that is as complete and stable as possible?
Try them and see what is good for you. For me is good Paranoid or AOSP from J-Team.

Thanks, but as I run through comments I see many have camera problems, or wifi problems and stuff like that. Is that true or are those outdated news?
I think they didn't install clean or modified something in rom or in phone. I don't have any problems and the phone is 2 year old. Try the rom and see if u have a problem.
Ok I tried the Paranoid Android ROM and so far I love it! Hope I find no problems as I use it more these days.

Try all roms available,then choose by yourself what rom you like more or what rom meet your requirements.Roms based on android higher than 4.1.2 have camcorder bug,it is darker.If that is important for you,you should flash stock rom + debloat + cocore kernel or install Harshjelly / Sami OS + cocore kernel.(after my opinion,i recommend you sami os).

Well , the most stable KK and JB rom's are cyanogenmod and omnirom.
When speaking of JB rom's I personally recommend cm10.1 for stability and overall performance.
When talking about KK rom's ..the most stable and probably the only ones are omnirom 4.4.2 and cyanogenmod 11. I can't say which is best because I've only tried cm11 but I've seen a lot of posts saying that omnirom is pretty good aswell. The best way to figure out which one works better for what you want is to try them , even though fast can't really be an attribute for our phones running android 4+. Good luck !

Unless I'm mistaken...
1) Put APK physical on phone
2) Enable "Unknown sources" in Security settings to install APK's from phone
3) use a/the file browser and point to your APK, chose to install it
4) To go Apps in settings, find your installed app and open it
5) Tick on Enable Privacy Guard
Something like this?
** EDIT **
If it's a privacy setting in your MMS.apk -- most likely, since the CM's Privacy will render MMS.apk useless as it won't give access to personal data -- go check that in your app.
I want to know your opinion, which one is a better(generally) option for a daily driver ROM on our phones based on today's options?
1- Stock/Stock based ROMs
2- Aftermarket ROMs (Like CM,Carbon ...)
It depends...CM Based are for Android Purists who don't like other designs but prefer raw and clean android
Hoever I prefer Nice UI so I go with stock based such as Existenz and the like

The stock roms is not bad, but in my opinion i'd prefer on custom rom because it has a lot of customization, but of course use it at your own risk because ur warranty will void if use custom roms. right now im using VanirAOSP in my XSP. its CM based running on kitkat 4.44 and can be used daily, im not a pro yet and i think u must read and learn and then compare them (the stock vs Custom). good luck ^.^

Vanir is much smoother than stock roms.
You dont invalidate your warranty unless you unlock bootloader (and even then keep a backup and noone will ever know).
Try out the LBL ROMs such as paranoid nexus or CM11 if you dont want to unlock the bootloader. They run really smoothly and with the right setup can be just as good as stock for power consumption (obviously non stock has no stamina mode) and personally I think better for features and performance.
You can also find most Sony apps on XDA to install should you want those (I use Sony Album, movies and Smart Connect).

There is a problem with cm11 roms - sound and mics seems to be very low... So may be 4.1 or 4.3 roms.

So in terms of actual performance stock/stock based ROM's do better?
Why use CM11 roms? They are buggy and laggy. Just use CM10.2, it's a lot faster than stock roms and all the features are working except for FM radio, but you can use SpiritFM.
Try the custom roms and if you like them more than stock use one of them. Many people prefer them but i like more sony's stock rom, i don't have any performance issue on it and i love sony ui.

Well, last time i used 4.3 - it was very laggy and slow. Existenze or something like that... I really dont need "new" features - i just want fast and smooth response.

I don't mean stock 4.3. Try CyanogenMod 10.2. It is Android 4.3 as well. No slowdowns for me.

Xperia SP = HuaShan
i used vanir in a few weeks, it run smooth, until i try playing HD games like MC4, and the screen is only black with the hud, no cutscene.
now i use beanstalk rom. it run smooth and i can play MC4 with no lag at all, so i guess vanir is not that perfect too,
i wanna try CM11 but the review tells that cm 11 is still buggy (am I right ?).
anyone in here try that out?
In this mounth i have tryed some ROMs but i don't found anyone ROM who like me..

There is no "best ROM". These questions are generally frowned upon as well. What works best for me, may not work at all for you. As @simms22 said previously, there are a wide variety to choose from. I suggest reading the OP of any ROM you choose, and seeing if it has the features you need, then flash that ROM and try it for yourself. Also, read the users comments within the ROM thread to see what their experiences are. The only way to find the best ROM for you, is to try several and decide for yourself.
Good luck!

Stock rooted hard coded without Xposed and GravityBox. LMAO
My personal two favorites are Euphoria OS and Benzo Rom (which is based off Euphoria) mainly because it contains Cyanogenmod features while keeping an AOSP base. Also I love how Viper4Android is built in to Benzo Rom. However it comes down to you on what you want to install.
Nice ROM to try
I have installed a Rom called "pure nexus " with modular gapps who have nice preinstalled support of layers and is very stable fast and battery saving and i have personalized with someone layers to remenber playstation.
Euphoria I just try but is very instable, app crash and home crash..
I tryed chroma but isn't a nice ROM for me because have low costumization but is good and fast.. All ROM I tryed have a support for not encrypted I hate it
Gravity and framework i have installed on my all phone but i don't like the release alpha for LP because when i need to install a next release for ROM with bug fix framework need to re installation and all app in the ROM need to optimized..

If flashing a zip is so hard, don't use xposed.
TWRP will flash up to 10 zips at once.
Hi there.
I been spending several hours reading user's opinions about several roms for the xsp.
I saw plenty of unofficial roms based on cyanogenmod official roms. And the question that pops into my mind it's.
Why so many mods? People doesn't like the official releases?
Also I been reading that 5.1 roms are laggy, and in a custom rom i'm looking for stability and performance.
Maybe I should go for and official cyanogenmod 11 rom?
Maybe for a stock based rom?
What do you think?
Hello.
Yes, there is a lot of rom for SP. But just a few work as it supposed to.
Lollipop it is in his nightly stage, though is very stable and the most recent apps, you will be able to use.
There is too a recent patch for security, we should take in consideration, Im using myself as a daily driver without problems, nevertheless still have some minor bugs, but nothing that cant make you wish to throw your SP on wall
If you want to test and see how looks like, I would recommend Sabermod Unofficial Or CM 12.1 Official Nightly
cm12.1+ addons imo cuz it's my second full month on it and it never failed me ....no problems for me and great performance

battery is good too yep
Go for CyanogenMod 12.1 nightlies with addons...Its Best for lollipop based ROMs.
You can try unofficial CM13 also if you can use the phone without camera. Battery life and performance of CM13 is far better than cm 12.1.
To be honest, is a matter of usage and preference. For me it was working fine but my phone got way too hot for my taste, but the deal breaker was that no matter what lolipop ROM I used facebook HD playback was choppy as hell. I know that it sounds silly but that's something that I need. None of these issues exist on stock, of course (C5306 - 1.205)
I think the Sabermod unofficial takes the lead on cm12.1 ... Great battery and butter smooth. I think it' s the for performance and battery !
I use official CM11 slimmed by me, without gapps, disabled LogCat, little modified build.prop + WilliamsPLUS and I'm really happy ; p
which 5.1 rom has fewer lag and more batterylife?
@beodo
A sea of roms but many of them are discontinued or not updated, so first check that one.
As fellow members said CyanogenMod 12.1 Unofficial SaberMod with add ons is the best right now for me as well, very fast, really fluid,stable and good battery life, in is some parts is even better than the latest official stock rom.
I m using this rom for over a month and i love it.
If you need even better battery life you could use Helium kernel (just dirty flash at recovery) and enable conservative governor, if you would like to take it further you can also install xposed framework which unlocks you much more features like power saving better experience, extra customization and more.
All of the above are continuously updated and supported by our great developers too :good:

Wjat is best rom for Oneplus 3T and why? But I want rom where xposed is working.
No ROM is 'the best'
You have numerous options to test and see for yourself which one suits your needs the best. You can go either for stock (based) or AOSP ROMs, it's all about what you are looking for. Also no choice is bad here - all ROMs for 3T are of really outstanding quality and not a single one will let you down. Just play around for a couple of days, try out different ways to go and pick your favorite.
If it's about me - latest stock rooted with Magisk is just enough. Oxygen OS is supremely optimized and the system is almost pure Android but with all the essential flavors AOSP lacks.
Fully agree with the previous comment. If there was a "best" ROM for everyone, we would all be using it, and there wouldn't be a need for any ROM except that one. What features are important in a ROM, is going to vary from person to person. The performance and stability (often a question "which ROM has the best performance?") is also going to vary drastically depending on how you as an individual use the phone, apply further tweaks, etc.
Your best bet is to browse through the ROMs, select a couple or few that look like they meet your preferences, and flash them, and try for yourself (be sure to make a TWRP backup of your current setup before flashing any ROMs, so you can easily revert); and see what works best for you.

No i don't have, bought this phone on this week's monday. Immediately rooted and flashed twrp, Now I have Resurrection Remix, but it's little bit buggy and not filling my expectations. (Sry for bad english)
I'm looking for a really good ROM, too.
Stability, everything should work fine. Don't want to clean flash every few months.
I don't need to customize every colour of every object. Need a perfect ROM for using it every day.
Any recommendations?
best rom official rr or the one from varun himself (g+)
no rom is the best.
you have to try some of them and choose one !
i tried at least more than 10 roms + defualt kernels and custom kernels.
and compare them together and flashed best based on my usage ! ( your usage may vary and of course other roms is best for you )
but :
if your main concern is not heavy camera usage and want stability + battery + xposed , i suggest you Sultanxda CM13 rom.(which i am using now.)
