Say which and why. Mine's 2.3 Gingerbread, it was the most customizable and stable version of its days (even when ICS and JB were released). CyanogenMod 7.2 was my favourite ROM back then, but obviously it can't be compared with today's Android 7.1.
What about you? What's your favourite one?
Kitkat 4.4. It was very beautiful themes in Xperia phones.. Used Xperia Z and it was absolutely fabulous., both external and software designs.

Hi - I want to have a rom most like the standard android jellybean seen on the Google Nexus 7 for example.
Which Rom should I go for?
many thanks
This one:

on Galaxy Note?!
You'll want something AOSP based so for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796217
That is cyanogenmod 10.1 (Jelly Bean 4.2.2) - they are nightly builds as they are not entirely stable.
whats the most stable one? For example I have used PA which is great but would slim bean be more stable?
What I mean by stable is that they claim they are unstable - sometimes something isn't working with cyanogenmod but then it is working the next day with the new nightly, they can all be use as a daylt build though. As for slim bean - they usually have the odd bug in each of their builds, I haven't checked out their 4.2.2 build 1 or 2 however.
In short words - don't worry about the stability.

For the last couple of weeks I've been using SlimBean 4.2.2 and Carbon 4.2.2.
Both are clean, pure and stable.
Hello,
I'm looking for a Galaxy Mini ROM based on android 4.x (4.1.x, 4.2.2, 4.4.2). The phone is not mine so I'm looking for something very stable.
I tried the latest CM11 4.4.2 Nightly (12th April 2014) and it's very good but not quite stable yet. I don't mind another older CM ROM with android 4.1.x or 4.2.2 for example as long as it is fast, functional and stable.
Can you guys suggest something that you have personally tested?
Thread closed as its a Best ROM thread.
Alright,
So i've been on my Nexus 4 for the past year and my brother took my SGS,
I'm currently on Jelly Bean and want to know if the upgrade to KitKat has the performance improvements that was claimed with the release.
You know, easier to run on lower mem devices and such.
Also, what must I look out for?
Do I need a special kernel to upgrade before, or update my recovery to some different version, or is there a higher risk of bricking/losing my efs than the usual download/flash? Can I easily downgrade to JB/ICS?
Thanks
Hello!
For me CM11 is faster than 10.1.3 and 10.2, additionally it's more united. Smaller amount of lags, and despite the fact it's nightly, ROM is pretty stable Of course wipe is mandatory, so back up everything.
Buckle up and enjoy CM11 Best regards.
EDIT: Flash any KK kernel if status 7 error.
Hi Roastmeat,
I've been using either cm 10.2 and cm11 on my Galaxy s i9000 and believe me you really will be surprised when updating the phone to Android 4.4 Kitkat (CM11). It really is a big improvement in terms of speed. It will breath new life in your Galaxy S
On highend devices you won't notice such a big increase in speed, but since kitkat was developed to support even more low end devices, the positve effects are noticed even more on "older" devices e.g. the Galaxy S.
Greetings!
My advice: stay away from Android 4.3 ( for example CM10.2) as it is the slowest Android version for our phones. Pick a ROM based on Android 4.2 ( for example CM10.1) or Android 4.4 (for example CM11) . I would suggest Android 4.4 , because our device really feels the benefit from it's optimisations.

I've tried several 4.3 and 5 custom ROMs.
On my xperia T I was getting constant SODs on all custom ROMs based on CM12/12.1 so I reverted back to 4.3.
From my feeling CM12.1 was faster, but battery life was shorter. 4.3 is more stable for me, battery seems to hold longer.
Thank you very much!
Shame there is not fast&long live battery rom :d
Guys, I would like to extend my Xperia V for another 2 years perhaps, please mention best and stable build for daily use, since there are many builds out there and I am confused. Please note that I am not a techie and I don't want to install upcoming builds either. I just wanted to bring my device from old android (jelly bean) which is not supported to latest android(at least lollipop) so that I can install latest apps.
Note: Also please mention if there are any issues in your recommended build compared to stock android version for reference. Thank you.
