Hey guys, I'm sort of not too new to rooting now I guess. Started with a Samsung Moment, Nook Color, Evo Shift, and EVO 3D. Anyway, I really loved the Cyanogen nightlies for the Nook Color. It was really stable and had a lot of options in terms of using emulators and all the Android software options. I'm waiting for my Nexus 7 to come in and I would really like to know what you guys are using and if any of you have Cyanogen and what you think about it compared to the Nook Color in terms of stability. If any of you have a Rom that you prefer I'd like to here about that too. Thanks!
The stock ROM is so smooth.

Haha, Kristen Bell mod, awesome
For me, CM10 works great. I've been using Paranoid Android (CM10 based) and it's just awesome. Stock is very good, but I highly recommend getting Paranoid Android for all its extra perks.
I'll look into Paranoid too then, Google is my friend.

So I just got my nexus 7, and if course I rooted it the first day.I'm currently running Paranoid Android and love it so far. Just want to see if there are any other ones I would be trying.
Thanks in advance.

I've tried them all and I think that Kaos Droid is excellent. I use it with the Touchwiz theme (included) and it looks great. It's stable, fast, smooth and elegant.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I'd say Paranoid Android is the rom you should use. Kaos Droid is not that good. I used it for 2 weeks and when I dumped it I understood what I lost.
Codename Android - stable, regular updates, and a decent sized download for a rom that includes a substantial number of extra features.
You will not get a fast rom. The only thing that can make a rom seem fast is sped up animation's or completely disabled wich you can do on any rom. To make anything faster you need to find a good kernel. There are lots of great oms and kernel out here. Have a try yourself and see what you like best.
I prefer paranoid android for the tablet ui. Along with faux kernel or trinity.

If you like Paranoid Android but want the large amount of customization that Codename Android offers, you could also try this ROM, which is a combination of Paranoid and Codename. It looks awesome and I'm planning on flashing this soon.

Porting may be easier with the release of hashcode's aosp 4.2.1_r1
What are you thoughts on this?
Of course 4.2 is newer and better, but is it actually better on our phone in the real world. I feel that gingerbread on this phone was the best an there really wasn't anything smoother or faster FOR THIS DEVICE.
Is there anyone still out there that stopped at the last 2.3 build of Oxygen or Peter Alfonso?

i don't agree with your statement that '4.2 is better' and that gb runs smoother or faster on this device only, i actually think that 2.3.x was the best android ever made and it all went downhill from there
show me one device where jb / ics works better than gb and i'll buy you a new car
Let the troll rest
¿dpeeps74?
U need to distinguish between speed and fluidity. GB browser is really, really bad, menus are complicated and UI is unpolished on *every* device. JB is maybe tad slower, but it is better in every aspect except battery consumption wise...
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
I tried that oxygen rom, and that even without gapps. I got to say, after jelly bean 4.1.2 gingerbread is too slow and too ugly to use it. I rather have little smoother UI and nice looking rom more up to date than old, slow, sluggish, ugly rom. Also gingerbread doesnt have hw acceleration. There you have it.

Just because I can listen to music on a Sony CD Walkman just as well as a MP3 player doesn't mean I should.
It worked just fine but it is older, clunkier and not as well developed as the player today. Tech moves forward, so should we.
Nuff said :idea:

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Yeah, there are more features and probably better performance/battery. You could start out with the RC5 build since it is the most stable and updated build but generally the nightly builds are pretty stable with minor bugs too. Personally, I prefer AOSPA since it has very innovative features that make my phone that much more unique :]
If you don't like it you can flash another Rom or go back to stock. You'll probably end up trying different roms and finding out what you like.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
sure man. couldnt hurt to learn a bit about your phone in the process as well
just dont be stuck with cm. its not the only stable rom, and it is definitely not the most stable so dont worry about having to just play it safe with cm.
Try PACman Rom, has Cyanogenmod, AOKP and Paranoid Android, the top 3 roms in my opinion. this way you can see all the features and then flash the rom you like the most or stick to it...whatever floats your boat
Yes

if you are satisfied with stock then No , if you feel some features that you would use are missing then go for it.
as for battery life, from my own experience, stock was the best option for me so far.
Use Carbon instead. Has the features CM has but a lot more. Nav width/height adjustment is a must for me. CM doesnt have that and wont put it in.
I've grown bored of CM, Slim, and Paranoid Android, so I'm looking for an interesting rom, my main stipulation is the source has to be out there so I can go and look around in it (and likely build it since I'm weird like that), MIUI looks interesting, but I'm still looking to see if the source is out there.
So I'm looking for input, does anyone have any suggestions of a ROM I can take, build and customize my own version of and use as my main rom?
I don't believe MIUI releases source code.
And essentially any AOSP ROM that has a repo can easily be built. I used AICP to build from its repo and it worked fine. Customizing has different meanings to everyone.

I though miui was closed source not positive on that but either way its awesome ROM if you find anything good please share I was looking for something like MokeOS (sp?)

For what its worth I use and reccomend F2FS version of Carbon ROM, but it maybe too similar to CM,Slim,PA for you.
Found a good one I can work with, tried it in the past, at the time it was a bit much, anyway, it's PACman, I did like some of the things they did with it.
I suggest liquid smooth. Its super fast and there are a ton of built in customizations. And about the coolest boot animation I've ever seen
