I'm looking for a stable ROM for my i9305 which has strong release management: I don't want to run nightlies/weeklies and would would expect releases to be bug free or at least have an itemised list of know issues.
In short, I'm more interested in stability than quick releases of new features. A solid release every month would be ideal.
Sadly, CM11 is out - the dev doesn't seem to want to release the "milestone" or monthlies that our brother the i9300 has.
What ROMs have a track history of bug-free releases? I'm after a longer time between releases, and solid stability.

Have you tried the latest TGP (The Galaxy Project) rom? Very stable and highly customisable i've been using it for months now with no issues.

Unofficial Slimkat does the trick for me. Incredibly stable and tremendous battery life with Boeffla Omni kernel.

I'm a bit wary of unofficals after my previous unoffical ROM developer (Archidroid - rodman01) just put [discontinued] on the xda thread and then walked away!
I settled for LiquidSmooth (which I believe is based on Slimkat) and did a DIY on Boeffla

Thanks, that one looks really good. I like that it's possible to select kernels at install time. Also a great selection of pre-installed apps.
I've since installed LiquidSmooth, but will keep this one firmly in mind!!
If you are looking for another AOSP rom, try C-rom, stable and has a ton of customization
Just wondering, what version of liquidsmooth are you using?

I bumped into C-ROM looking for a ROM wife's i9000. It looked quite impressive, but I found that updating her kennel did the trick, so didn't try it. I prefer AOSP over TouchWiz, I'll keep one in mind, thanks.
I'm on LS KK 3.1 stable, with self-installed Boeffla kernel. I'm loving it.
please Which boeffla for liquid 3.1 for my i9305,thanx

C-rom is awesome! Tons of customization and really stable. Sadly it has not been updated in awhile.
I was running liquid smooth 3.2 nightly(currently on carbon ROM). Btw are you using the CyanogenMod or omni boeffla kernel?

Hi guys, I have a little question:
Well, as you know, the guys who worked making the ROM's of the N1 is awesome.
But I have to see some opinions about the performance of 2 ROMs, Evervolv and Beanstalk.
Now I'm using the Evervolv ROM, wich last update was on May 21st, but some people says that Beanstalk is smoother than Evervolv. I see the last update was on April 17th (or something like that)
Does anybody can help me if I stay with Evervolv or go with Beanstalk? It's just way to have better perfomance on my phone (as everybody wants, too)
Please answer if you tested both ROMs
Evervolv always

I found Beanstalk buggier than the Evervolv ROMs. (I have used both as my daily drivers)
Evervolv ROMs are more stable than other ROMs because others use libraries and source code from Evervolv.
If you want a boatload of features, then use the Beanstalk (trust me there are A LOT of customizations and added features here) but if you want a more stable ROM, Evervolv is always the one to go to (IMHO).:cyclops:

Hi, i would like know what is the best ROM now for SP? AOKP CM Existenz ecc? A summary of ROM can be useful.
Sorry for english
Thanks
sir, u got death wish?
After many tries best for me is stock rom
I've used quite some roms and kernels. For now the best two would be pacrom and Crystal PA rom. They are stable, have some additional features compared to cm11 and they are fast. With williams kernel they work smooth.
If you are looking for stock based then in my opinion eXistanZ Ultra with Williams v7 would do.
Here's what I think about the different ROMs out there!
CM11 - Great support, lots of MODs, very stable. But tends to get laggy very soon.
AOSPA - Some great unique features, great Audio, better touch sensitivity ( All the @neXus PRIME ROMs have these features.
PAC - Loaded with all the goodness from all the ROMs, but had some random reboots but that might be my problem only!
OMNI - The ROM which is the most close to AOSP. Almost the pure android experience.
AICP - Loaded with features and honestly, overloaded. Gets very laggy, really soon.
AOKP - I'm not an AOKP lover, had random problems with AOKP.
Vanir - 4.4.2 version was absolutely brilliant. It was THE fastest and most responsive ROM out there. With 4.4.4 came lots of bugs.
CM 11s - A very nice ROM. Stable and good battery life upto an extent.
SlimKat - Extremely stable for me
Stock Based - They are really stable and provides improved functionality over the Stock FWs. But no KitKat love for them!
CM 12 - Alpha Stage and unstable obviously!
Out of all these I personally prefer the OMNI or SlimKat.
P.S : All these are my opinions and may NOT be how the ROM works out for others. I respect all the developers who worked behind them

No problems in using 4.4.2 but we don't want to stick with an earlier version when you have later ones, do we? Still it's a good option!:fingers-crossed:
[ROM]NostromoPop 2.4.0 (25/10/16)[CM12.1][5.1.1]
This is the Unofficial CM12.x for the HTC One Mini 2 thread!
Project status so far is working!! I've had trouble finding the proper libraries and thought I'd bricked my device yesterday with an earlier build but then grabbed the CM11 latest and used libraries and firmware files from that and it works! Some apps seem to run a little slow but equivalents run fast so it's a per app issue and not Android 5 per se as Dalvik is gone and libArt is the main runtime. Otherwise it seems very very fast even compared to KitKat!
It includes all the expected functionality from CM and I've also added Apollo into the build!
Plus this build includes my own DPIChanger app to make things a little easier.

NostromoPop v2.4.0 CM12.1 25/10/2016

Massive massive thanks to the Google guys developing this and of course CyanogenMod and without a doubt, u-ra for porting the device initially and for maintaining the device trees and recovery image!!! And the Paranoid team for the Gapps.
Oh and use the latest recovery possible!! And if you are feeling adventurous or miss the old Xposed framework from JB and KK then try this from @rovo89 : Xposed

Thanks! All I did in the end was install CM11 latest version and grab a few extra libraries from my other build and it built successfully. First attempt was built using the libraries from before October and that nearly bricked it!
Hi, I'm new here. Flashed a lot one my HTC ville, but got a One Mini 2 now. Poor custom ROM diversity for memul, so thank you for your efforts.
On download page it says ...memul.zip but then for HTC One XL???
Just flashed Nostromopop, works great! Thanks dude for giving us Lollipop on One Mini 2!
For all followers: first boot took several minutes, this is not a bootloop. Be patient!
I'll report issues after some testing.
It works great. It's fast and stable until now.
My camera isn't working for now but we finally hand lollypop working.
Thanks
Nice work, only problems I'm having are audio fx not working and the camera app is slow/glitchy
Got some problems with the launcher I'm using (KK) but works fine now. Camera works for me. Can't find Apollo app, but that's no problem.
How can I restore my e-mail accounts from CM11 ? Not working with Titanium Backup.

You do realize this is a build of the stuff I'm pushing to the CyanogenMod repo? All the bugs listed in this thread are the reason there's no official nightly yet.

So it's mainly your work? Then thank you for your efforts!
The Nostromo build shows surprisingly few problems so far and I won't complain about things that do not work. I'm very happy to get a first lollipop experience.
It's great to hear that there will be CM12 for memul, I was not sure about this. There were so much ROMs for my HTC ville and there seems to be so few development for the Mini2. Future CM12 support is good news for me.

Yeah built it first for the One XL (my main phone) and then attempted the build for the Mini 2 and forgot to update the config/common.mk file in vendor/cm!!

Yep, hence the thanks in the first post. And as I stated all I did was built it with a set of libraries that worked. Also built a version of PAC Man a while back but could never get hold of the devs to get the build uploaded.
I'm also running your build of TWRP as it's the only proper recovery for this phone out there.
So all in all, without u-ra this wouldn't exist or would still be in development.
Just flashed the rom a few hours ago. After playing with it a bit, I would point out a few things.
1. The AOSP camera app hangs a hell lot and also freezes the phone. So an alternative camera app will be the suggestion.
2. It is almost as smooth as the stock rom.
3. I am really missing Xposed on this. Guess I'll have to wait for it or go back to stock.
4. There is a bit of a clicking sound in audio at the highest volume, something that was present in CM11 when I used it previously(Not sure if it is still present in the newer versions).
The only main gripe for me is the unreliability of the camera. I will try other apps, but nothing can beat the Stock Sense camera IMHO.
I strongly suggest that you take down this "ROM"
As this is only U-ra's work. You presenting this ROM is really stealing his shine as HE IS THE ONLY ONE really making anything for this device. We don't want to upset him by doing these things do we?
Let him present his work when it's fineshed!
When you touch a ball that's allready a 100% goal did you score?
Calm down. The record is already set straight. Also, posting builds is perfectly fine, as is using CM base to build other variants, so long as the credits are given and licenses followed.

Exactly and without u-ra we wouldn't have ROMs on this phone or a recovery at all! And now that full CM12 is up then that is now available and can be used from now on. I'll only upload builds for this when I have added custom bits etc. For example I've bene testing builds of PAC and am waiting on Carbon being available on 5.x.
First CM 12.1 build with Android 5.1.1 posted! Again this is purely until the official nightlies come out that u-ra has worked on so much but I've been running 5.1 for 2 weeks now and it seems pretty good!
Hi Guys,
I have been using diff. of ROMS lately but havent found the right one for me. So instead of trying all ROMS(all latest builds) I would like to have your opinion/findings on what is the most stable 5.1x ROM for our beloved MI3. Below is the list of ROMS I have tried that i have trouble with. But i still thank the developers for keeping ROM development for our device alive!
IVAN ROM - Good Battery but having trouble with performance, especially with playing HD videos (it hangs mostly and noticeable lag).CM Cancro 06/11 - Fast ROM with good customization, but have few quirks like camera sometimes has problem or with SOD.HD ROM - Looks really good and very customizable, but has also trouble with performance with HD playback
Please feel free to recommend your daily ROM driver. Thank you in advance for your post. I will appreciate it.
currently i'm on RR's latest build with latest stuxnet+ kernel and the combination is rock stable , battery efficient , lagfree and above all SOD free
Paranoid ROM with phantom kernel...Good for daily driver and battery life is good.
only had this phone a couple of weeks - first steps: repartition, install TWRP and try out some ROMs.
Have settled on PA - I prefer themes to Layers - very stable, no in-call issues or device going unresponsive.
PAC rom latest version..
All SOD and network bug free.
RR has network bug.. I and many users reported. . also same bug in recent CM commit involved roms.
PAC, CM-Cancro, Tesla rom, OctoOS,RR

Hi everyone, I'm wondering what is the best rom available for the Nexus 6 that is very stable and full of features? I have no preferences I'd just like to know what rom is the best rom out there that fits the bill. If you use a custom kernel by all means list that as well. If you can provide links to the Roms and or kernels that'd be great. Thanks everyone
Pure Nexus 6.0.1 best stable ROM, based on stock and full of features. Flying well with elite kernel
Take a look at my signature :good:
lets move this here on Q&A
I'm sure you mean well however this question can be viewed negatively by the community. There's no "best" rom. Best means it fits all your needs.
For me best means stable yet lots of features. For others best means stock with one or 2 things added.
Determine what you want first then go from there. Some stable feature filled ROMs are Chroma, pure Nexus and Dirty Unicorns. Those are good starts. Elemental X kernel and Elite kernel have been good for me as well. Lean kernel was good as well but it has not been updated in a very long time.
The most feature packed ROM is probably Resurrection Remix hands down, stability is debatable but is usually stable
Thanks everyone for the replies. I'll have to give these a try
Dirty unicorns all day everyday.
I've been running Dirty Unicorns for almost 24hrs now and really like it. Thanks again everyone for the list of Roms and Kernels
+1 Resurrection Remix Neo all day! and I've tried them all.
