I like clenrom I'm not a huge fan of mods so I like the stock sense look but its nice to have none of the Verizon crapware
Nils Business GB.
i am currently running CleanRom, but since scott has moved on, I am looking to also. I know asking what the "best" rom is is subjective, just wondering what others suggest, and yes, i want to switch to a rom that is still being supported.
Check my sig, it's a very nice ICS/Sense 3.6 rom built on the latest leak and it's still supported. Google would turn up it's home site.
I'm running Tonked ROM from TeamBAMF. Been great for me so far.

I'm running Newt's OnexXx 3.2.1 ROM and it's amazing, no FC's, very stable, and it's fast.
Nils' Business Sense (updated frequently)

My favorite is Nils' Business Sense (ICS, Sense 3.6):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508118
Updated frequently. He also has a Sense 4 ROM, but for stability I like Nils' ROM in the above link. Newtoroot has a pretty nice Sense 4 ROM, but it is offsite on mikmik. For me, however, stability keeps me on Sense 3.6.

I think WolfROM is the best.

Nils Roms are awesome.....seems he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Nils is very very solid rom, as well as the Dev being just a good guy. It's my current rom, not had a force close or any sort of issues what so ever.
thank you all for the suggestions. i am going to be changing it up this weekend after i get a chance to read up on all of the suggested roms. i'll keep you updated on what i decide to go with!:good:
I like Rezound Zone I here he has pretty good support.. although everything works so it gets a little boring after a while.
How about sensless ROMs? I'm on CleanROM DE 1.4 currently.
still researching...gonna flash something tomorrow. Another concern of mine is battery life. I'm getting killed right now with battery drain. not sure if it is the kernel or what.
In my opinion, it is ViperRez hands down!
ViperRez is #1

hows the battery life? any bugs?
Battery life could be better, but I use my phone a ton and have the settings "turned up" if you will. I always have my screen on full brightness, full data syncs, etc. As for bugs, I've noticed very few minor things. So minor I can't remember them. I've been using it as my daily driver since it came out. It has all the customization that you would ever need and has OTA updates!! I highly recommend it.

Since it looks like we'll never get an updated version of CleanROM (and who can blame Scott, he's moved on to another phone) what is the best alternative. I love CleanROM because it's a simple, no BS rom. It's not over-themed, no bloat, runs great. I'd like to run something that's using the latest leak as it's base. What do you guys think? Thanks!

IMHO CleanROM is a pretty strong competitor in the basic ICS Rom dept. If you want to enrich your Rez experience, move on to a sense 4 ROM
There are several out there. My favorite happens to be Newt's One xXx . YOu can find it on the Developer forum...along with the others!
Conrom or viper rez. You could make a cleanrom type rom yourself pretty easily with the right know-how
Been using neomax adrenaline for the past week or so and really like it. Had been on cleanrom for several months but since it wasn't being updated any more I decided to s-off and move on. Really like adrenaline, and to me it seems like the most like cleanrom.

Nils has a great 3.6 Rom....has some theming but nothing too crazy, based on latest leak and rock solid. Never had a single issue with it.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Ineffabilis Deus is a great Sense 3.6 based rom on the latest leak also.
thanks guys, I'll have to check them out.
Nils' rom, con rom, are 2 great ones. Personally I like newts one XxX and Joelz's viper rom. I'd try each one for about 3 days each to let the battery stats configure, and to let the system set in. A lot of times people write a device off for having terrible battery life, even though they tested it for like a day. *cough* *cough* the verge. Love the site, but they need to test for like 4 days. Anyway back on track, I can say the con rom v4 and v5 are extremely stable.
Edit: didn't mean to bump this. Op seems to have the answers he wanted. My bad :b.

I moved from CleanROM to SlimROM once it stopped being updated...Now that SlimROM has officially stopped I'll probably move over to NeoMAX eventually if AOSP/AOKP takes too long to come out.

Just download the latest leak, and read the thread buried in the development section about which apk's are safe to delete. Making your own "CleanROM" is literally a piece of cake. =)

NeoMax: Adrenaline, it's a de-sensed, stripped down, fast as all hell ROM. It may actually be the best ROM that I've used in the 9 months I've had the Rezound, no joke. If you want a non-barebones ROM the regular NeoMax should be just as fast but I can't attest to that personally.
looking for a good ROM with better results with battery life and of course stability. currently on Scotts Clean Rom 3.5 and looking for something with the new ICS update and firmware. Been looking around and just would like to hear some recommendations.

Try looking at the development section. If you want sense I'd recommend viperrez. I if you don't then use neomax. Also the cm9 and aokp roms are awesome but they are beta not completely working yet

Depends on if you like sense or de-sensed roms.
For sense I like CONROM and the OTA ICS plus rom from micromod777.
For de-sensed I like both of Neo's roms (fast as hell) or CONROM with the desense option in aroma installer.

For some reason I experienced a lot of lagginess with neos roms although I liked them a lot so I switched back to ViperRez I know benchmarks mean nothing but I couldn't break 5000 with neomax (antutu) and on viperrez I get a constant 6800 :what:
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Big fan of Neo's latest Adrenaline here, including battery life, it also appears smoother than 1.6 and below but it does appear to be more sluggish than Venom. Having said that however my battery life with the Venom rom was horrible and my phone heated up a lot..never have the latter issue with Neo's rom or Nils' Business Sense 3.6 v5.7 rom for that matter (highly recommend giving that a shot too)
I highly recommend using ElipticRez by hawknest

If you really like Sense, and don't care that is still ICS, consider EclipticRez ReVamped v9... it is rock solid and battery life is respectable to great for the Rezound. It has always been my go to ROM for the Rezound when I get frustrated with the little things about KitKat that plague the Rezound
That being said, I heard the @REV3NT3CH found a solution to the camcorder problem in KitKat on the Rez?!?!? WTG bro!!! The final major hurdle has been overcome!!!

GSM ROM?
Not sure if I should start a new thread or add to this one.... I'd appreciate any recommendations on the best ROM to use would be on the Rezound with AT&T. I'm currently on Neo's Tachyon 1.2 and I like it a lot, but when I've tried it with a GSM SIM previously I couldn't get outgoing SMS to work.
Thanks!

battery is pretty good especially considering how much tethering i do.

Try everolv, when you flash the ROM, then flash the gsm.zip that you can download. It allows you to use GSM servers. Via I think a change in the build prop. Or a lot of new Roms I think have GSM...

I would imagine that CleanROM 4.0 is more stable, considering many use CleanROM as there daily driver. Last night I flashed CleanROM 4.0, and haven't had any problems so far. I'm using Verizon Note 2.

If you want more of an AOSP look to your Note 2, then Beans is the way to go -- he themes his ROM's to give you that AOSP look.
CleanROM is not themed, but very light weight in terms of removed bloatware and other tweaks that the dev has done to the ROM.
I prefer CleanROM since I'm not really a big fan of the AOSP look/feel (I know.. I'm in the minority here).
But as others have said, you can't go wrong with either ROM, they are fantastic. I'm just hoping some of the themer's out there come to this phone as they did on the S3.

I don't know. I am the only member with a Note 2 and the abuse seen from some people lately has put off other members. The sense of entitlement from the Android community chases off more talent than anything else.
So, I won't say no, but will leave it as a fading hope, that is still in 'maybe' status but could change to a resounding 'NO'.

I've seen a lot of devs stop releasing stuff because of all the bs. I wish most devs would just post a "this is my rom, take it or leave it but don't B!TCH!" and just release it as they built it for themselves and let others create mods instead of trying to cater to everyone.
Can we please keep on topic for a change.
