Best stable rom(so far..) - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's the best stable custom rom as of right now?

If you need Google play movies to stream, stay stock or use elixR rom; the other roms are still trying to work out the Google play movies issue. If you don't need it to work, try them all!

stability isnt an issue for any nexus rom. our source is pure and isnt hacked up so we can run it. all nexus roms are stable. now best depends on your needs and desires, as there wont be a one true best rom.

There is no best Rom or kernel. I have to agree with simms22 that all nexus roms are stable since the source is pure.
Markweb makes a good point as well if you need Google play movies then those are the two roms you'll be using.
But either way, there is no best Rom. Look around and shop for one, try one out that interests you

Different OS's

Hey guys
I just want to know....what are all the OS's that can be ported on the nexus one (every different android maker os is a different os.)
I just want to know and if you could.....please put the link if available.
Thanks

Check out the Development section, count the sub-versions of each ROM found there, and you'll get to several hundreds of them.
Or just consider it one big OS called Android, in its variations. That will also be closer to the truth.
Personally, I run Windows 7 on my Nexus one.
Oh, you were serious?
Bro, every "flavor" of Android is still Android. One Operating system, different versions or "builds" or whatever they're called.

those are the mains ones right now, and of course dont forget to include stock but rooted ROM, like modaco ROM. then there are many variations of cyanogen broken off and customized to make their own ROM.
last year there were many more ROMs, so it has died down a little. but generally its still very strong ROM community for the n1.
no other OS's work except android OS and all its flavors.

Why you are searching another SO
NexusOne is not a PC desktop (you can installa windows or linux) it's a smartphone.
Android is the best one SO that you can have.

Gotta admit, their replies were somewhat humorous. I saw some charter about a port about a month ago, but not much since. Forts figure though, that its going to be light on the current features of the ROMs since they've diverged in their current iterations. PA is no longer CM based, which would make the mash up more problematic.
Along these same lines, a rom that I wouldn't mind setting on the N7 is JBSourcery. I'd find it hard to be without PSprefs, however.

Rom Port Request Thread

Hey, guys! I'm making this thread because I will continue to port roms, but only if it is requested. As you can see I've been on a porting spree but now I want you guys to let me know what rom to port (if any). My ports are solely made to provide the experience of a rom until the owner/dev team of that rom officially supports us. All requests that I post will now be permitted by the owner/s. If I am not allowed, i will let you know here.
So if there is a rom you would like ported, leave a comment and I (and perhaps xcoNjA) will do my best to bring it for you. Thanks guys - Michael
****The rom needs to have the same resolution as the S4 and also an arm7 processor...might be able to do it with an arm6 but yeah (so basically, any rom that works on a different S4 I can almost guarantee it can be ported****

Just ran it... I installed it and restored apn's and its good to go. I flashed ktoonsez new TW kernel with it. Man this rom flies.
Edit: One thing though, you lose lte with a reboot and cant get it back until you on a Sprint rom and update prl and profile.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium
Thanks again for all the ports. I think I'm less interested in new ports and more interested in the stability of the ones we already have, And don't get me wrong. They're running great already. At this point, if we're able to get 3g and 4g, along with mms working like a stock rom, then I will definitely use them as daily drivers.
Thanks again for bringing some fun to the Sprint forum in the last week.

Josh will never let that one fly.
I know this is asking a TON, but Firefox OS would be absolutely awesome to try on this phone. Mozilla has some documentation on how to build it, but I am not advanced enough quite yet.
Not really expecting data to work, of course. Just a proof of concept and actually trying it on phone software would be awesome.
Then again, I could be completely off base and it could be impossible to flash like you would an android ROM. Who knows.

Android 4.4 KitKat running on Nexus 4 + Benchmarks

This is the new Android 4.4 AOSP ROM, which was just recently published by PA, running on Nexus 4.
In the video I go through the new stuff that's been added to Android, including the new "Ok Google" feature.
I also ran benchmarks and the results were better than I expected!
Antutu benchmark score: 16867 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_8_I6xHiOk)
Quadrant benchmark score: 5042 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aQbUfnrwU4)
The scores will improve once Google released the official ROM with all the binaries and what not.

It's not Ok google now, is just the old Google command but now from the launcher. I tought that Nexus 4 was received the ok google now from moto x

TToivanen is right, the battery stays intact as it only listens for the keyword while on the home screen.
Results should increase when actual 4.4 binaries/drivers+kernel is released with factory images.

Thanks for sharing. It seems to be very similar to stock 4.3 performance-wise.
I have 17097 with Antutu and Quadrant with 5025. So basically the same..

Nexus owners don't like waiting... In fact many bought a nexus so they wouldn't have to wait on an update. Now Google is making us wait. Kinda BS. Pretty annoying.
I personally am refusing to use some broken 4.4 ROM. Stock 4.3 till the ota is pushed.

Agreed. I bought an N5 and part of it was because I couldn't wait for Kit Kat to get on my N4. I don't understand why Google doesn't start sending updates to the Nexii all ready.

There is no such thing as a "best" rom... there is only personal taste... Try different rom and see what the have to offer that you like...I personally like to stay as close to stock as possible so I don't like roms that have for example the app side bar....but you might.
yeah I understand why youre asking but at the end of the day the best rom for you is the one you like best.
I currently use stock it does what I need until there is an option I am missing or a rom with a far and away performance boost im cool with that.
Just ask yourself what specific things do I want?
Look for a rom with those. If there arent any specific ones do what was mentioned and look for 3 or 4 roms that you find interesting and dive right in
Oh and Backups = Awesome!
While i agree with everything said.
If you specify what your after in a rom. We could point you to one that fits the bill.
I personally like stable with everything and the kitchen sink.
Currently using euphoria and extremely happy.
What car is the best? ...... see
It's subjective. There is no best rom, that's like asking what's the best shoe to wear? Everybody has their own choices.
Its your responsibility to see what's out there and then give them a try.
