ROMS THAT DONT WORK SO FAR
AOSP Source Built
CyanogenMod Nightly

Why? I'm running 10.2, the 9/23 nightly. It's rock solid as have been all the nightlies for a couple of weeks now.
Any reason to go back to a 10.1 ROM?

No reason at all. I also run the latest nightly and it is buttery smooth.

For the simple fact that this is a stable release. Just because you experience no issues in your use of 10.2 doesn't mean others who do different things with their phones don't experience issues. Software can't be considered stable based on the experience of a few users.

Very nice. Is there a general discussion thread somewhere for it? I couldn't find it. Curious if bluetooth and the IR blaster are fully functional.
Thanks

Is this only for the dev devices sold directly from Samsung?
Forgive my ignorance, I've had the Gnex for the past couple years and that was a very easy phone to mod, and my original SGS was as well. I have been reading here but I wont have the S4 until later today so I have no idea what firmware version will come on it out of the box.. The [GUIDE] stickied isn't actually a guide but a list of ROMs with no explanation of anything for beginners to this phone. Can anybody point me to a better starting point? Because I am failing miserably to find any kind of guide or wiki or truly compiled info on this device.
Thanks ahead of time.

Thanks but your post is totally irrelevant to my question, it's stable for me on my phone and that's the ONLY phone I'm able to observe, the ONLY phone I have first hand information about and the ONLY phone I inquired about.

Task and ktoons AOKP is a favorite. Works well and is stable. As is lilchris' PhoneBricker. Both are ICS.
Have only used those two, used many kernels, but like the roms, it's up to the user to decide what is best for them.

That's not for the i777. Why don't you open the development section here on xda and read? There are tons of roms to choose from.

That looks like the international GS2, but as for CM... Never run it so I can't tell you if it's stable (from my experience) or not.
However, another good option would be ShoStock. Never run it, but it's got a great following so shoman must be doing something right!
As was said above me, by some random asshat who also has developed a ROM of his own, try taking a look at the development section and reading up a little on the roms available. Also, make a nandroid backup and then give a ROM a try. Give it a week, try other kernels if it seems a bit choppy. Then try another room if you aren't satisfied.
Once you find one you like, supercharge that mofo!

Synergy Rom

Anyone have great experience with the Synergy Rom? I am considering it but a review says it is laggier than the other ROMs on there? I wanted to clarify, is it at least better than STOCK? Thanks in advance
I was in the same boat as you, looking for new roms. Don't waste your time with others. Install LiquidSmooth. It's hands down the best rom I have ever used. It's stable, everything works, and there isn't any lag whatsoever. It also gets great battery life and it is very customizable
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
Most ROMs are really in their early stages, but it sounds like most of the TouchWiz-based ROMs are fairly complete. As far as lagging, it's probably going to depend on the phone. Beans, Clean, Hyperdrive, etc all have great reviews as well as reviews that list some problems.
I recommend picking one that fits your needs - mods and features - then FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS for flashing exactly. Then formulate your own opinions. A lot of negative reviews or problems stem from people not reading through the original post and thread comments. Reading solves most issues. Good luck, and have fun.
Anything special instructions I need to know for liquid smooth? Just wipe complete and install ROM with gapps? Does the Google wallet hack work with liquid smooth?
Thanks!

Synergy rocks, don't waste your time reading into other people trying to steer you away from you want to try. one of the better TW roms. You will like it.
I never said the tw roms weren't good, I was just giving him my opinion on an excellent aosp rom
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
I am enjoying the synergy rom the most out of all the ones being offered right now. The battery life increase is amazing. It's smooth, sometimes didn't reboot all the way but boring into recovery and wiping davlik as ND cache seems to fix it ( I chalk that hiccup to it just all being a somewhat new room for a new phone) so the bugs need to be ironed out.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
+1 on Synergy. Tried Hyper, but for me Synergy is smoother and better battery life. Can't really go wrong with any of the TW Roms right now though.

I would just recommend wiping and reflashing after you backup. I have had 0 problems with calling. Make sure you are also on the most recent build also bro.

Just want some comments on the ones you guys use and prefer.
I tried pa but got bad battery life and currently don't have time to flash and try them all
Waiting for this to be closed. LOL at all the "what's your xxx favorite?" don't be a sheep! Try them and decide for yourself. Make a backup and test. You can restore as fast as you flash if you need stability. All 3 are fantastic roms. I prefer pac or pa personally

If I may suggest a rom.....
Try Vanilla Rootbox, it has all the features of PA so it comes with HALO, quite a few from AOKP, and some of its own. Its always been perfectly stable for me. I would suggest trying the 6-23 nightly. If you aren't itching to flash immediately there will be a stable version of VRB out sometime in the next few days.

I switched from PACrom to the 6-21 nightly of Vanilla Rootbox and have had zero issues. GPS was an instant lock and that has never happened for me before. Faster than I was getting on PAC.
I'd download the 6-21 nightly and give it a whirl.

I seriously recommend Eclipse TW 2.0 by nitro. My favorite ROM by far. Imagine a ROM that looks like AOSP, even the status bar, but has all of the nifty TouchWiz features. And if you use Ktoonz's recommended setting, you also get amazing battery life. I love this ROM. Snappy too.

There are plenty of awesome ROMs available. Ultimately, you'll just have to try a few that grab your attention and see what is best for you. I bounced around between many of the TW ROMs before I finally landed on CM 10.1.3 RC2 and I'm very happy with it. See what works for you, TW vs AOSP then find the ROM that you like most.
There's a bunch of factors to consider, the first and most important is what you like, we're all different!
FWIW, I've tried BoneStock and Hyperdrive, they're both very good ROMS but I always go back to CM 10.2 because it does everything I want, it works to perfection and I have some apps that won't play nice with TouchWiz ROMs. Battery life is adequate for me.
As always, YMMV!

So ive flashed alot of TW roms. But I really want to go to aosp 4.3. What is good n stable along these lines? What kernels does AOSP have? Is it worth going from 4.1.2 to 4.3 or should I stick to AOSP 4.2 roms. All advice is welcome

The latest CM is probably the most stable AOSP kernel out there right now. I would just use the stock CM kernel though as I get some weird issues with the other kernels out there.

There is no BEST and yet they are all the BEST. Members are expected to research and read through the Development threads. The only thing you will get here is a list of all the ROM's & Kernels because every member has found what is best for them. You can get the same list by looking at the first few pages in development.

Have a great day!
