Smoothest ROM for KITKAT - RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! I would like to know your opinion about what is the smoothest rom for RAZR I 4.4.4.
I have CyanogenMod 11 installed and it's very laggy. I don't care if it has the visuals of a Nokia1100 , I just want to use common apps without crashing or else.
(or maybe something different that I could do that you could recommend me)
thanks a lot.

if you like the basic CM functionalities.
Regardless of that, testing multiple ROMs is recommended as that will give you a clearer outlook on what's better.

thanks, but i couldn't find any description about the omni rom
[email protected] :
thank you i will install that rom after i buy a new sd card in the next few days, bcuz now i have only 1gig sd card, and that rom forces you to have a big sd card, beceause it uses sd card as internal as a new feature , and i don't like that feature
My Opinion
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.
Stock Based - They are really stable and provides improved functionality over the Stock FWs. But no KitKat love for them!
Out of all these I personally prefer the OMNI ROM.
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

Stable Custom Rom For Z1

i'm really bored and i want to try a custom rom on my c6903 but i really don't know witch one is stable and battery friendly. Any sugestions? I want a 5.1.1 , was thinking about CM 12.1 but i saw in the main post that it has some bugs and in fxp thread users said that there is some camera problem.
I was also thinking about it days ago. What is the most installed custom rom by the people of the community?
I will not ask what is the best one, because each one has its particularity, but it would be good if someone could indicate some roms, especially now that we know the Z1 will not get more official updates.
havent noticed any camera problem on cm12.1 roms but a big problem some users had including me was some screen problems..(screen's sensitivity is higher than usual and makes some problems) ... it has great multitasking experience.. good battery life .. lower sound output than official builds on default . I tested many ones and my choice is resurrection rom .its better than others... but i switched to official 5.1.1 pre-rooted with some customization ,became a beast... but i prefer the resurrection but i had screen problem ...
hope i could help you

Best Rom?

Hi Guys,
My moto G 2014 lags quite a bit and the battery backup is horrible .. I'm on stock currently.
I'm new to rooting and stuff, so need suggestion as to which is the best (not fast, but just no lags .. battery is very imp) .. I'm not a gamer or anything, just normal whatsapp and photos, thats all.
Thanks
all rom are best. please choose rom according to your choice and like
OK so here is my opinion, (note it's My opinion)
Stock based : Radium Redefined v1.2
Cm 12.1 : Fusion LP or Orion
Cm 13 : Vatsals Optimised Cm 13 Builds
AOSP 5.1.1 : Minimal Os
AOSP 6.0 : haven't tried any type yet.
I've used all with just Whatsapp, Uc Browser, 2 games and a couple of music apps.
All the above give me more than 5 hrs of SoT with little gaming that is.
For me cm13 official
I try :
Cm 12.1 : works well but some bug time to time
Cm 13 : I love marshmallow but big big problem with sim network provider, always lost connection and poor battery
SlimSaber 5.1.1 : the best for me.
I really waiting good connection and battery life with marshmallow.....
I use stock kitkat 4.4.4, rooted+xposed for some modules(greenify, amplify...), unistalled some system apps that I dont use. I downgraded from Minimal OS because of battery backup and reliability. Now I am getting AT LEAST five hours SOT with heavy usage, a lot of youtube, whatsapp and FB. No force closes unless you unistal something you need for the phone to work properly but you can fix it with a Nandroidbackup.
However, if you mind having the look of lollipop I definitely recommend Minimal OS as it is VERY VERY STABLE, it has the best battery backup on any lollipop rom I tried (at least 7 roms), I think i faced 3 reboots in 2 months since it was my daily driver other than that, rock solid.
Best roms for moto g 2nd gen (xt1068)
The following roms are the most stable roms i have ever used on my moto.
1. Blisspop. (with maximum customisation) BlissPop-v4.0.3-titan-OFFICIAL-20151031-1345
2.Cyanogenmod 12.1 (Minimum customisation) cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K5-titan
Try them, you will definitely love it.
Cheers
I'm using minimal OS and i have any single lag (on other rom's there are many as you said) also battery backup is very good. You have to try it!
THIS is what I'm using...
I've been using Nexus Experience 10.1 with Extended Kernel and am extremely happy with it. No bugs, very smooth, excellent battery life, and pulled a 29203 on AnTuTu Benchmark(Would post a screen shot but am not allowed).
YMMV, as they say...
I would suggest you Minimal OS 5.1.1 . It's very stable, no bugs what so ever. Integrated kernel is very battery friendly but you can have any kernel you want really (Halogen R14 is my choice) . RAM management is on top of what the device is capable of and it got everything you need in terms of customizing your device while keeping it clean and not overloaded like CyanogenMod.
Not that there is any "best rom" but here is my opinion:
6.0.1 -> Broken OS by ishubhamsingh
5.1.1 -> (1).SlimSaber by aayushya, (2).Minimal OS by vatsal
Stock -> definitely 6.0 over 5.0.1
I recommend SlimSaber as I am a huge fan of Slim, the roms are always very fast and light, which means good battery. If you want a pure AOSP experience, go for Minimal OS
As far as kernel goes, Decipher kernel is really great. The kernel that comes with broken os is also very good. Rest kernels have too many features which may end up slowing it down
5.1.1 definitely Resurrection Remix ROM (v5.5.9)

Fast Nexus 7!!!

I have found a fast rom for the 2012 N7, I went through CM12.1, Omnirom 5.1.1 and 4.4.4, Lineage 14.1, RR 5.8.2, but none of these were good, with or without custom kernals or parrot mod. The best rom I've ran (and am currently running) is stock 4.1.2 with no mods (unless you count root). Happy flashing guys, and frankly, if you don't want to update your hardware, just downgrade your software. I also tried stock 4.3, 4.4.4, and 5.1.1, 4.1.2 is the best by far. It took an hour to settle but when it did, it was lightning compared to the others.
Also no, I tried CM 10, it's somehow slower than stock 4.1.2

Before buying my 2012 N7 3G (I bought it some months ago) I've read the same on some forum. I use this rom base on 7.1.2 and it is acceptable for me.
I believe some apps/versions are not compatible with 4.1.2 by now, so it may require a bit of digging for apks no?
What I do notice, is that if you want a fast tablet you have to carefully choose your apps (and maybe versions) due to ram consumption. From example as an app for e-reader: Kindle (127mb ram) vs fbreader (27mb ram).
Since you had all the work trying roms I guess you may have choosing apps. Do you have any recommendation?
So far I can tell some apps that I believe are the best/lightest that I use:
k9 email material
xodo pdf
nova launcher
opera beta (may not be the lightest, but it has facebook notifications and messenger notifications so minus two apps I need)
greenify
amaze file explorer
hope to ear from you, right now I am in need of a good keyboard (I am a fan of swiftkey, but it seems somehow slow in my Nexus 7 3G with 7.1.2)

Fastest ROM

Hello! which is the fastest ROM? i don't need some customizing, good aspect or ""useless"" app. It's necessary fast & slim. i don't need the latest software version (6/7).. thanks a lot!!
I look for a fastest fully working 4.4 custom rom.
Why? Cause i use cm11 on s3 mini now.
Its fast for this device. But only watching on YouTube app not work. I can hear voice, but only see a black screen.
I tested newest cm13 and lineageos 14. But those roms are slow as hell.
Which one custom you people recommend?
I need fast 4.4 rom for Daily use. Cause s3 mini is my primary android device
you found it? I need it too, s3 my primary phone also..
If you are looking for speed, try any 4.4 ROM, use dalvik (default) as runtime, and odex framework and system apps to save space in /data partition.
@golden-guy's Omni 4.4.4 ROM is great and has latest security updates compared to other ROMs. The only thing not working is search in SMS app.
CM 10, 10.1, and 10.2 are probably fast too. But I haven't tried them myself.
Now I have cyanogenMod 11.0 by NovaFusion, the only big problem is that it drain battery too fast...
