[Advice]Best alternative to Cyanogenmod 14.1 - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, since I've installed CM14.1 I'm been facing a lot of issues and bugs with the gallery app, the camera app & many times I get a notification that "CM bug report not working" and my phone becomes unresponsive. Which ROM would you guys suggest would be the best alternative to CM14.1? Or should I roll back to stock AOSP 6.0 Marshmallow?
EDIT: I'm really confused which ROM should I switch to I really wanna try MIUI 8 for TITAN and also lineage OS. I want no bugs that would be good because I really don't get the time to reflash other ROM's and keep testing others. So please suggest the one which has almost NO BUGS.

Try this stable af, just a couple of minor bugs here & there but the rom overall is fluid & battery efficient as heck.

You might be running an really old build, since those issues were long solved. CM is dead now, but there's LineageOS, its sucessor. If you want, download it here.

[Q] Cyanogenmod most stable nightly?

Hi all,
I am still running stock 2.3.6 but I am thinking about unlocking my phone to run CM. Anyway, I have been browsing through the dev CM7 thread and found that there are a lot of random reboots, lockups and other problems in the 7.1 stable release. I am thinking that installing the an older nightly perhaps would give me a better experience. Which nightly would you recommend?
Thanks.
I think its not good to stay on
a single nightly because there are few tweaks with every new nighty which makes it better from last one.
Anyway I recommend you to try cm7.1 rc1 before trying nightlies
For some time.

On my N1 Cm 7.1 is stable to but playing videos in flash full screen causes so many lock ups, i hope cyanogen would release a minor update for it

I'm one latest nightly, build 227. Very good and stable for me.
Just make sure you do a clean wipe including system partition
when coming from a different ROM.
Thanks guys! Do you know of a bug tracking page that lists all the bugs that CM7.1 currently has?
Thanks.
Not a bug tracker, but I find this page very useful and visit it daily to see if I want to upgrade to the latest nightly or not: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=passion
Looks like the latest nightly is marked as 7.1.0.1... #227 as baseballfanz said. Maybe that will fix the problems you mentioned... however, I will note that I've been running 7.1 stable since the day it was released (nightlies before that) and have had zero problems at all. No lockups, no reboots, no problems at all no matter what I do with it...
7.1.0.1 is a maintenance release for a few devices. The N1 was not included in this list. And most of the reboots and instability issues with the stable release are resolved when people perform full wipes of the phone. It has been rock solid for me.
Thanks guys... I have installed CM71 Nightly 231 last night. It was going smooth at the beginning but I got stuck on flashing Amon_Ra recovery. For some reason my phone wasn't taking the CM themed version but the original version installed fine.
First problem after flashing the ROM and gapps was Market wasn't downloading apps for some reason. I think it was because the phone was reinstalling all the apps at the same time and it just couldn't handle the load. I had to install the apps one after another and that got through it.
The phone rebooted itself when I played a video for the first time, but it's been working rock solid so far. Now I'll have to figure out how to use S2E!
Thanks!

stable ROMs? for i9305

SHORT VERSION: is there any stable rom for the i9305 that can also run banking apps that look at if your rooted? Or just a stable rom for i9305!? Or even a stock rom that has no bloat-ware (for i9305 of course and in uk)?
LONG:
So I started out a journey looking for a good stable rom and of course cyanogen caught my eye but I unfortunately swapped to a 4g service and swapped my phone right before embarking on this journey to a i9305 - crap!
I thought wow great 4g and 2gig ram it'll be perfect with cyanogen 11 so I waited and no M build for i9305 all year long argh! So I gave up and tried a nightly cyanogen 11 and it was buggy as hell. So gave up on that after a few weeks and trying different updates moved to carbon - again only nightly available even more bugs maybe I was just unlucky in timing but on to cyanogen 10.1 I was going backwards now not the most fun but it still has a few bugs but is way more stable and I loved the speed and camera was great but still it feels a bit old and I still prefer stock . So I am thinking now I either give up n get stock or go on to yet another one but im not confident now ...thanks!
i also like stock ROM...until now didn't found one which will have wi-fi working with stock kernel...so i will give it a try to rXTREME.JB.4.3-V5.1.1 with a custom kernel and see how it works...

Hmm yes too many bugs in all the custom roms on this device wish I could try a cyanogen M build ...
if you want to install rXTREME you MUST make a full wipe....in instruction it says it is recommended....but in reality is a MUST...all kind of bugs...and freezes...just opened screen and tried to unlock it...light effect...instant freeze...had to reboot...
i also wanted a stable CM11....not with huge battery drain...and other force closes....
hi men ,
i used the slimKat rom on my gti9305 and it's the perfection for that
Try Pacman RC1 everything is working very very less Force closes though but I have flashed paranoid ROM gapps and Google play app is not connecting :/
Very less it works
Sent from my GT-I9305 using XDA Free mobile app
I flashed this recently. Its working PERFECT :good: :good:
(bloatware can be turned off)
performance improved, minimum ram usage, longer battery life (comparing to 4.3 stock rom)
NO PROBLEMS
[ 4.4.4] [ROM] [STOCK-Official] [I9305/I9305N]

Is there a custom ROM for the P880 WITHOUT a LOT of problems?

I try ROMs and ROMs and ROMs and all are unusable, because the
phone freezes with nameless-5.1.1-20151107-p880-nightly or
reboots when starting apps with euphoria-os-1.1-p880-unofficial-20160208-user or
is extremely slow and is stottering with aosplp-20151122-p880
a..s.o
The apps which lead to a reboot with euphoria work fine with aosp and nameless. Euphoria is fast, faster than nameless, which would be fast enough for me. There are no problems which exist with every ROM.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a ROM for the P880 which works without big problems. At the moment I think about to go back to 4.4 and try beanstalk-4.4.4010-20140904-p880cm
Of course I would be happy to find a ROM with fixed stagefright-bugs, but it looks like to be impossible

Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66049970&postcount=1195
This is the latest 5.1.1 ROM with security patch level at 2016-04-01. It has all known stagefright bugs fixed so far.
If you wish to report issues on the ROM I shared, then use the thread over there, not here.
MoltenMotherBoard is the last custom ROM that I miss to test. I'm going to try it in the next days.
According to my test, my answer to the thread question is: NO, there's no custom rom working fine for my daily use.
Actually fastest rom was liquid smooth 4.4.4. Our phone hardware outdated. Like the others said this phone is crap
I'm running Euphoria version 1.0-p880-20150130 (Android 5.0.2), it's the best Lollipop based custom ROM for our device in my opinion. Unlike AOSP it has more settings (& features), and it's more stable than later versions of Euphoria. If you want to stick to KitKat, check out the latest CM nightlies.
To be honest, after 2 years of testing custom ROM... today i finally found the best one to keep... STOCK!!!
I've re-discovered the pleasure of see who is calling me at once, not after 20 seconds. I can finally take photos, hear who is calling, open apps without having to wait like 20-30 seconds.
I appreciate the effort of every developer... but at the end, the result is that out of 20-30 custom ROMs for our phone... no one can be used for daily use and being happy with it

having JellyBean running on your device in 2016 is a very very very bad idea.
Here's the issues I found with LG stock JB-4.1.2 ROM v20 euro-open. If you can live with them, then good for you.
- Bluetooth button action broken. Cannot invoke Google Search or Voice Dialer from bluetooth headsets. Fixed in custom ROM such as CM/AOSP KK and LP.
- No update for Google Maps. Version 7 is the final version for v20c. Fixed in CM/AOSP KK/LP.
- No notification from Lock Screen. Fixed in CM/AOSP LP.
- No smart lock to avoid the hassle of entering PINs for known location and known BT device. Fixed in CM/AOSP LP.
- No screen cast. Fixed in AOSP LP.
- No bluetooth tethering. Fixed in AOSP LP.
Actually I'm on stock now (euro 20c), and my version of Maps is 9.25.1.
But yes, you're right...I'm ok because for instance I don't use bluetooth at all.
I still miss to test "AOSP Lollipop 5.1.1 | MoltenMotherBoard"...but my question is: is smooth as the stock? Are these working ? camera, flash, barcode, dialer reader, calls in general..
thanks in advance

When I was still on LG stock JB, Maps somehow got updated. But then the device slowed to crawl and I factory reset it and I didn't get Google Play store to update it again. Glad you have it and it works for you.
Barcode and FM radio are not working. If these 2 are important to you, then you should stick with LG stock.
For UI smoothness, I think Lollipop itself has made tons of improvement that it is at least the same or better than JB. Don't take my words for it, you should try it out yourself and pass on the judgement.
I reinstall again LS KK 4.4.4 and updated to latest Mourta's kernel from modaco forum. Phone back to alive.

3 different ROMs, same error message

I've tried 3 different ROMs in my new X526.
Lineage 15.1, Pixel ROM and now I'm running Arrow ROM.
The error shows up some seconds after running google photos which is trying to synchronise my collection
"Unfortunately Camera Has Stopped Working".
Is there a workaround in order to fix it?
I'm a little bit frustrated.
Thanks in advance.
Camera is an issue with new ROMs since the kernel sources are of marshmallow, but you can look around the particular section to minimize this issue

I am not really a huge fan of getting the bleeding edge ROM for my device.
I just want to work everything as it should be without annoying problems.
Maybe I should go back to an older android build.
Suggestions? Maybe Havoc?
Miui 10 and lineage nougat are pretty much okay for daily use. You could go for RR too

Custom Rom with no bugs?

Hi, I have decided to install a custom rom for my Note 5 (N920C).
I have tried Bliss and LineageOS but they both have camera bugs. Sometimes I cannot record videos even in low resolutions. Sometimes my camera freezes permanently while in video call and it does not fix until system reboot.
Are there any roms that can bu used without ANY problem in daily life for this device?
Or else, I'm gonna have to switch to stock rom.
So far and similar u I tried Bliss & LIOs roms
Reverted back to stock and everything worked BUT the alternate i am using currently is the Floyd ROM since last 4 months and so far everything i tried with it has worked
Give it a shot and see if it works for U
