I just got my Nexus 6 about a month ago and I have started experimenting with root and roms. I have tried a couple roms but I decided I want to return to stock with root just for the best stability. Is there any way I can add tweaks like the circle battery or free wifi tether to the stock rom? Thanks
Or if there is a rom that is stable that you recommend I may look into that as well
Chroma is a nice rom with just the right amount of features.
SinLess rom is extremely stable also, based on stock.

Alright, I will look into it when it becomes more stable because I do miss it from KitKat. Maybe you or someone else could help me out with one more thing. Im trying out BlissPop v2.0 currently and for the wifi hotspot, everything works as it should, but it says "no connected devices". Is there a way to fix this? I know the hotspot is working because I'm using it to post this lol.

Aosp based 4.4.1 with minimal tweaks. I haven't updated it in a bit, but I've been running it for a month now, needing a reboot once a week or so. I'll get back to working on it eventually.
Edit: It has some issues, but nothing major. Chrome likes to crash with an assload of tabs open for an example.
Can you post the link for me please? It sounds like a good reliable ROM, I would eventually like to learn how to build ROMs.

It's posted under development, about 8 down last I looked. If I were you I'd use Validus (until 4.4 Pac is ready) instead.

You flashed/stocked back to odin ne3 and then again flashed the rom. is this time wifi working ?
Correct and yes WiFi is working. The only issue is that if you want to turn off or reboot your phone, you have to turn off WiFi first, else it does not work properly when you not back up. However, even if you forget to do that little trick, a hot reboot fixes Wi-Fi. Otherwise, there aren't any issues with WiFi or in general

I flashed this rom because I can't stand touchwiz (stock Samsung); I really wanted the look and feel of AOSP/stock android. The battery life isn't as good as stock with Galaxy Mod Ultimate (you can still use it, it's just the improvement isn't as noticeable). I'm not quite sure what you mean by gesture? This is an AOSP-style rom so all of Samsung's gimmicky little add-ins such as (but not limited to) air gesture, smart screen, all share, s-beam, s-voice, etc. are not present at all. I think it really comes down to a matter of preference. I have/had around a dozen devices, not all Samsung, and most are running cyanogenmod or something based off of it. Therefore I wanted this rom since it's the closest to cm we're going to get with a locked bootloader. If you like the look and feel of touchwiz or all the features Samsung adds in, or if you're super concerned about battery life, you might want to stick with stock. (Don't let the battery life be the only deciding factor, it's not that bad).

Honestly its a very efficient rom, most things seem to work however randomly for me some apps will stop working, however I believe that to be an app problem not a rom problem. I treat it as a sort of bare essentials rom, if you want a small rom then its worth it. I've installed viper4android and other root apps and those also work perfectly, I believed i flashed it about a week ago and everything is fine
Which ROM is the most stable for the Note 4?

this here.
But if you want my opinion it's stock rom.
Rapture rom for me
Stock, though not a rom, is the most stable.
Stability depends on the user phone as well as what the user does with it. Rapture works great on my phone but I have seen complaints of instability. Firekat also work great on my phone, as well as dynamic and all the ports. Yet, I have seen complaints of instability. Now the AOSP based roms are truly unstable because they are in the testing, beta phase considering they are not a native build for our Touchwiz based samsung device. Not every device is made the same so flash and see which loves your phone the best.
Hope that helps.
good news everybody Official AICP nightlies are here

Rapture ran the smoothest for me and would be my go to but I ran into signal issues for some reason. Firekat and infamous I run right now and haven't had any issues yet.
Fire Kat V8 for sure.
Be sure to follow instructions to enhance battery life too and you should be getting about 8 hours of screen time.

I see in the fire Kat OP It seems to be a little confusing as to how to install. Is there a base ROM that flashes before V8?
Mega recommends a clean flash.
Basically just wiping cache, Dalvick, and data in the team win recovery.
But you can flash firekat over anj or ank.
I finally flashed the whole ank update. Bootloader and all.
That's what I flashed firekat v8 on top of:
The additional tweaks in the op2 are tight, and increase battery life a lot, but installing firekat is just like installing any other rom.

AICP is based off of AOSP, all the custom roms that are not TouchWiz are AOSP based roms even CM. AICP (Android Ice Cold Project) is a custom rom with a lot of customization options they are not all added as of yet but they certainly are being added gradually.
Definitely stock

They are all stable for the people using them. Some minor bugs might be there, but might not be noticed by others. So by asking this you will get a list of all the popular ROMs. You need to make a backup, read the development threads to find one that has all the features YOU want and try it. If you find a bug, search that thread to see if a fix or workaraound was posted. You will find much more self satisfaction and knowledge in this path of discovery.
I have been looking for an optimized T-Mobile WiFi calling ROM, looks like no body cares about this feature because it is only few ROMS using this feature. I am using the stock rooted but it is bad with the battery and I am used to the battery use in Chrome ROM. Could someone point me to a good rom with the best features and battery with a WiFi calling enabled? Thank you.

its only available in stock(or stock based ROMs?). its added in by tmobile, and not open sourced(yet?). and the majority of ROMs are based on aosp, and the code wasnt put into aosp(yet?). so if you want WiFi calling, you'd have to use stock, or m.
I was about to post the same question... any answers?

The wifi calling bits aren't part of AOSP, a few people have tried to "reverse engineer" it, but with limited success from what I understand. I think part of the problem is finding a developer that has T-Mobile. Being that some of our devs are from all around the world, and even the ones in the US are likely not going to have T-Mobile. This makes their testing slower and/or harder.
I think there are a few that are still working on it, but I don't think it is a major focus of anyone. I know a couple have sorta given up on it.
tl;dr - No custom AOSP (or variations of it) currently have it that I know of, stock ROMs are the only ones (plural because this includes M dev preview) that offer the functionality.

No. Just about any ROM that has been updated in the past month or so should have it built in. The OP of every ROM should state if it includes it, and if it doesn't then there is a good chance it doesn't.
Just as a note, kernels also matter for getting wifi calling to work as well, if you decide to flash a different than what is included with the ROM.

PureNexus is optimized for Project Fi now, and T-Mobile calling is working fine. Been my daily driver since the first release July 5... I kind of miss crack flashing, but it's stable and has lots of great extras! Plus the Dev and community are super helpful!

You'll find WiFi calling in Dirty Unicorns, and in PureNexus as has been already noted, plus Chroma, I believe Minimal OS, AOSiP, as well as most stock based custom roms (include Gapps)...from what I can tell, no Cyanogenmod based rom has it...I'm sure there are others.
Best to flash and try it before fully setting up the rom itself. Here is why...if the feature is important to you, it can take a bit of tweaking to make sure it works...for starters, if going the AOSP route, you'll need a WiFi calling kernel (Lean kernel version 2.10.6 works perfectly), a proper T-Mobile WiFi calling modem, and those include 14R, 16R and 17R...and sometimes you'll need to toggle WiFi calling on and off, reboot, and you also may need to dive into developer options and flip the switch aggressive WiFi to cellular handover.
Good luck!

Hey guys. I'm trying to figure out the most stable MM rom. I really like DU but it keeps random rebooting. Im new to the note 4 and I just want to know what you guys suggest. Thanks in advance.
So far, AICP has been the best I've used. It's been the only stable ROM I've run besides the stock one.
yesh im on AICP too, everything works great, but i miss the camera quality on TW roms
And the camera speed
