I'm on stock unrooted and I just want a rooted, hassle-free experience. So which rom right now has the least known complications? Just a quick look at the development section makes me think it might be the Unofficial Rom.
Any recommendations?
I'm pretty happy with the alpha 2 from DAGr8. His third version gave me too many problems. The other roms' forums seem full of problems with the store or messages...I guess just try a few. If you nandroid where you are now switch back shouldn't be too hard

There aren't many at the moment. I would suggest staying stock with some tweaks until our phone becomes more widespread(it's still new)
I just flashed theunofficial and so far it hasn't given me any problems.

I would give unofficial a try. It is by far the most stable custom rom I have ever used. It has never frozen, given me FCs, or had weird random issues. So basically it works flawlessly and this is the first custom rom I can honestly say that about.

I want to try at least one Rom, then I may go to this.
uncleTed and thephoneguyusa, have you tried Unofficial and you still recommend alpha2? Thanks.

I have used unofficial and it is good as well but if you want ICS not Gingerbread alpha2 is the way to go in my opinion.

I have flashed all the roms and i keep coming back to Saurom 7.1 I do like the unofficial as well. You have to at least try 2 of them to test around with because really comes down to personal preference when many roms become stable.

I like the latest Unofficial...no FC's, nothing extra to flash, and it has a great theme.

+1 unofficial is a great rom I'm also useing with the SPB shell 3D, it's so fast and smooth. So much eye candy
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I also must jump on the Unofficial bandwagon as it is "very" stable. I was on Solaris for a while but it seems to be out of the picture for now. But if you want a hassle-free experience, go for the Unofficial.
Another for "The Unofficial". Great ROM, very stable and smooth.
Dag_8 Alpha II is the best ICS out so far. It's currently my daily driver.
Alpha III caused SMS issues and other FCs.
If playing4sheezy comes out with Beta 2 for NOTEWorthy then I'll be switching to it, because it is the smoothest, cleanest, ICS out yet...
A Question
I have a question for the folks using alpha II, what do you like about it over Alpha I? I keep comming back to Alpha I because it is the most stable for me.
Cheers

Whats the best CM10 JB ROM for the Rezound that is stable, fast and smooth and has very good batter life? Also, what would be a good Kernel to go with that ROM? Right now I'm on a CM9 ROM
Sent from my Rezound using xda app-developers app
They're all roughly equal in most areas. The instability with AOKP is gone in JB, so it's more about what you want out of the ROM. PAC has the most options, vanilla CM10 has the least (though still more than CM9), and AOKP is in the middle. Neo also has his customized versions of CM9 and AOKP if you like his stuff.
Stability wise, JB is overall a tick behind ICS AOSP, but not much (not enough to worry about in my book). I recommend pmem over ION if you are faced with the choice, and if you want to get the smoothest performance, check out one of the custom kernels (I hear Ermahgerd is good ).
I can vouch for Neo's AOSP jb Rom as far as speed and smoothness. Very few bugs at least for me (never use bluetooth) and I personally like snuzzos funky kernel (haven't tried the newer kernels like ermergerd or the oc kernel I have seen in the development section) but I don't think you can go wrong with any of the jb builds out there now because even a completely clean cm10 build without Linaro is pretty quick and definitely a very usable dd.

Well I personally recommend my build.
Runs really well with no issues except for HD video which is a problem with all the JB ROMs.

I tried out your latest release of CM10 & im not sure if its just me but for some odd reason the only thing that's really getting under my skin is that I can hear my own echo during calls. Also, I wanted to point out that there are times when I have no signal for a good couple of minutes or so. Everything else is dandy from there on.

There's no noise cancelling in our AOSP device code, so what come in the mic goes out of the earpiece. I don't hear it as a echo though. Someone had to point it out to me for me to even notice it, because to me, it sounds just like an old analog landline.

Also the signal issue you are talking about is an issue with all AOSP ROMs. Enable airplane mode, wait a few seconds, and disable airplane mode and then your service should come back.
I am interested in trying out CM10.1 stable, but want to see if others have some feedback to share with the rest of us.
Some questions :
- Is it really "stable"? Any reboots?
- Any feature not working (bluetooth, tethering, etc...)
- Battery life?
- Compatibility with different custom kernels?
- Any issues with network (LTE/4G)?
Thank you in advance.

Still reboots
I don't use bluetooth nor therering
Only ran it for 24 hrs so I can't help you with battery cause you need to give it about a week or so before you can actually see how battery performs.
I use this kernel with no issues. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2326786
I din't notice any LTE/4G issue
Reboots for me too. Its like twice in past 48 hrs and it was random. Not too bad. A reboot to startup is only about 20 seconds.

6/26 nightly seems more stable.
The "Enable keys notifications" (also known as BLN) does not work. It worked in 10.0.
On the positive side, they've added this feature called, "Ask for reminder snooze delay" which allows you to set the reminder time to something different than the default 5min (I just noticed this feature; not sure if it's totally brand new). I remember this feature was available on the Palm OS ten years ago and since then I haven't seen it on any mobile OS (not sure if BB had it) until now.

Same here with the reboots. It does get annoying but whatever. I might end up going back to Samsungs JB.
Anyways. Battery isn't so bad either. But I'm on a brand new battery finally after a year with the phone.

You'll get them. Go to YouTube and try watching a video, that's where it usually happens for me on any 4.2.2 Rom.

but as i said on my other post a bit ago, everyones phone is different, and everyones phone use is different so we cant expect everyone to have the same results

the most stable from my experience was a cm9 ics based rom as its most compatible with the device...most roms 4.1 based and higher have reboot issues because of a deep sleep issue caused by the default setting of the min frequency being too low under performance settings...but if you want everything to work including bluetooth and not have sense cm9 would be your best choice...4.3 based roms still have many bugs such as mms not working after first reboot and camcorder keeps force closing..4.1 and up still has a few bluetooth based bugs and your reboots...the reboots still happen on 4.3 based roms like pac until you change it to proper settings
Liquid smooth all day

The AOSP ROM I used for a while was PAC but it started rebooting a lot because it overheated while charging. CM9 was stable for me and CM10 is almost stable.

full asop
Even the latest version of cm9 (back in 05/28/13) has bluetooth problems. Is there really no aosp or kang that is 100% functional? Weather it be 4.0, 4.2, 4.3? Came close with Liquid Smooth but still having soft reboots.
Consider Talon v1.0, because either nobody is using it (unlikely with over 3000 views), or people are using it and brenuga just built it right and it works... and my money is on the later. Seems extremely stable, feature rich, and bug-free, it is what I am going with for my work phone.
My ROM of choice is CM10.1.3. I have zero issues with it. CM9 would be my next choice.

Hello guys, I'm a newcomer in the Android world and the xda forums, but so far I love it! Just bought a Note SGH-i717 recently, rooted it and now
I'm trying different roms. Now you said this roms has more options, do you mean customization or more apps installed that you can't remove from your phone?
Tried a version of CyanogenMod but it was lacking key features like the camera app crashing whenever I try to film. But maybe I should give this one a try.

Was wondering, since the first reason I bought the Note is to draw, I was wondering if there was anything that would allow to set up the S-pen for lefthander. I know there was in the official version of android on this phone. Would there be any way to get this feature or to implement it somehow?
I noticed the cursor is more accurate when I hold it with my right hand though....I'm a lefthander.
Trying the rom out now. Glad to be able to use the CM11 themes. Thanks!
so at first I think "Spirit Rom"!!! really, someone made a cheerleader themed rom, yippee!
so I load it up and see a ghost in the boot.....Ohhhhhh, Spirit Rom.........stooped me
