Hey everyone
I currently use CM9 and love the experience, however I want the stability and all the hardware to be working of stock.
My question is there a ROM out there which is built from stock, but has been converted to look exactly the same as AOSP /CM9?
Anything close?
Thanks !
I use WanamLite. Its based on Stock Samsung but pure ICS themed. I recomend it.

try foxhound. from reading that thread it is more or less has the AOSP feel. but next time ask in the right forum mate the Q&A section and also maybe it is best to search and find the one that you might think is appropriate cause there is no point having to wait for others to tell you

err...most of the roms in the android dev section are based on stock and are themed to look like aosp
Have you even bothered to look?
Read & search, this question is so trivial it's clear you've done neither

Hi,
I have hard times to decide which ROM should I run. Both are great and amazing. So I need some help from both CM and Paranoid users.
What I look forward are: A better battery life and fast-stable operating.
Thanks in advance!
You're posting to wrong section.
But I prefer CyanogenMod

Paranoid Android has more UI choices from normal to hybrid. Really good and stable ROM. Cyanogen will are the main source. You have any problems its them that fix it not Paranoid. I'm on Cyanogen now. Was on Paranoid and enjoyed it. I'd rather stability than anything else.
Please read the rules about posting in the correct sections.

Sorry for posting in the wrong section.
Thanks for moving.

Okay, thanks for the answers, I expect more reviews.

This one I did not closed because the OP is asking about a comparison between two specific roms not asking a general "which rom is best". I feel this thread is ok and tolerable. lol
only thing i dont like about cyanogen is that you cant have a brightness slider, i use paranoid but a recommendation i could make is install the latest siyah kernel then run one as a first rom and the other as second rom and give them both a try i do it for omega stock touchwiz and pa very useful :3

How do you mean by "run as first rom and the other as second"?
He means dual boot, see siyah kernel thread. But quite odd to dual boot with two non Sammy (or 2 Sammy) roms
More logical to use paranoid as it's cm based with more features.
Newb question here:
But, what's the difference between CM10 and Paranoid Android?
Since Paranoid Android is built on CM10 - wont it just have a few extra features? (Hybrid mode looks cool imo.)

Don't you think hybrid is a big difference ? Just flash and compare, no one will be able to choose for you. Ten minutes work, restore is easy with nandroid, you could even try without data wipe as it's same base. But CM10 bugs ==> Paranoid.
I look at the voting poll and it's pretty close. Right now I'm running CM10. I must to say that the battery life rocks. The only thing that I don't like that much is the Contacts feature, a lot of stuffs are missing. Ow and also I can't find Power Saving mode in Settings?

The latest Syiah Kernel allows you to dual boot your phone. So you can have two different roms installed.
I use CM10 because it has faster/more frequent updates. (Usually every night hence "nightly") (could be a good or bad thing though... I feel like I have to flash something on my phone every day. Flashing is sooo addicting lol.)
PA is based on CM10 and will have to wait for CM10 to release its update before it too updates. The PA team is also quick to update when it happens though.
But PA has added features to CM10 that some people may or may not like. Hybrid mode and enabling/disabling hard/soft keys are one of top features that comes to mind.
Dude, first of all.. you CAN'T let other people decide on what you "want"
You just have to try it for yourself..

I'm trying out right now the CM10. Very awesome! I will give a try to PA also.
Just wanted to know which was more stable ..
This is a little off the Paranoid and CM10 but what I tried was this...
Downloaded Omega v29 & Omega v2.0 and dropped into SD Card,
Formatted my Internal Memory, (like completely formatted),
Flashed Omega v29, once done, set it up, and there is S Teaks in the App Drawer, open it up and go across to Dualboot and click the ''Reboot into 2ndROM Utils''
Down the bottom there is dual-boot options, go into that, Format 2md Rom system, Wipe 2nd Rom data/cache and wipe dalvik-cache, and fix permissions, then install zip to from External SD (where you put the omega v2.0 file, and flash that. And the rest is as is comes.
It will reboot and you have a choice to click the home button to go to your 2nd rom or click anything else to go to 1st Rom.
Worth it, due to both those Omegas are different UI, I got Omega v29 for Gaming and 2.0 for sexy show off looks.
i used PA before im on CM10.1 based rom,
PA - i like the phablet mode etc but it has no statusbar transparency
CM - i love the speed, themes and the softbutton below its like a built in. battery and performance are great.
i dont know which is better since i used the same kernel with that 2 cusrom marmite kernel

Hi, I've rooted a friends NT wth 1.4.3 using the SD card method. I am looking to change this thing to a traditional Android Tablet with Android ICS or higher. Any idea what is the best and most stable rom? How about Xylaon?

Against forum rules to post the "best" ROM. But my preferred ROM is CM 10.1 4.2.2. If you want a more stable version I suggest CM10. I just like using the most up to date ROM is why I use 4.2.2 build.
Pick whatever you want. Head over to the iamafanof website to find the ROM of your liking. He has CM, Paranoid Android and Xylaon. All do the same thing with slight "extra goodies".

Thank you for your response. I wasn't really asking for best rom but people's opinion of which one is most stable. This is someone else's device and I don't want to be maintaining it. Xylaon is on it now and it seems pretty cool. I don't have access to sound files to test the sound. I've heard Android 4.2 variants have sound issues. Is that correct/

I'm not familiar with the Xyalon build so it might just be a bug in it. Different ROMs have different little bugs. I have CM10.1 build from succulant. I don't have audioproblems.

any major bugs you've found with cm10.1?
my brain is quickly turning to mud....spent the last 2 hours reading up on rooting this only to finally figure out it's a ****ing tablet and not a ****ing color . doing it for a friend's kid so kinda in the same situation as the op (looking for the best option for a maintenance free rom)
always thought cm is the best option for putting on another's device but feeling reluctant to leave it at cm10

I'd suggest Succulent's CM10.0 build dated 12/31 http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/.
You can try running his various builds off SD first before picking one to install internally.
I second CM10 dated 1231. I have that on a NT used by a 9-year old, and it's doing its job beautifully.
When I tried higher builds on my NT stock browser has been a bit glitchy, and there has been a few minor problems while streaming video. Works flawless in CM10 1231 build!
(I visit a pretty poorly coded web site quite often, and I'm sure many problems are due to the poor site, but it doesn't alter the fact that it works well on CM 10 an not on higher builds!)

hahahaha, I did the EXACT same thing when I first got this thing ages ago. Someone gave it to my wife for free and I was told to "make it work nice and keep it" :laugh:
I'm running Xylon now, but I've had the best battery life with AOKP (I could quite literally leave it unplugged for a week and it would still be 60+% battery, assuming it was off the whole time).
Only thing better for me was Stock. Xylon is close, but not as good.

You're using a VERY old ROM. Assuming you have it internal flashed all you need to do is copy the .zip ROM and GAPPS files (that you can download here) onto your SD card.
You have to preform a factory reset/wipe data, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache. So if you have data on your device you want to keep make sure to back it up.
Once you do that then install .zip from SD card and select the ROM and Gapps. Reboot your tablet and TADDA, CM10 is internal installed on your device!
I have some suggestions!

The most stable version of CyanogenMod is CM7(Gingerbread)
If you want the second most stable, that would have to be CM9 because CM10 still has a minor crash/sleep*STUCK* bug and some versions of it just dont work period. I have the NOOK Tablet 16GB with TWRP Installed, but having the "Unable to mount /data1 partition" error but will shortly be fixing that and i will be testing like a champ once again ^_^!!! *Im fixing my problem tonight before i go on a 13 hour trip

*ADD ON* CM9 IS A VERSION THAT IT JUST LIKE CYANOGENMOD10
Not meaning to yell but Android Ice Cream Sandwich has almost all of the features Jellybean has in store. but Jellybean supports the NOOK Color without the problems of the NOOK Tablet<--Kernel Difference + Hardware Difference(Thats the only problem with Android Jellybean
Cm10 was made into a stable version with its final release. I run it with no problems. CM10.1 however is very buggy. Still crashes and runs slow.

You don't need cwm recovery 6 to flash it. You can use recovery 5.*.*.*. (Latest version of 5).
You can replace the recovery.img if you want with the newest 6.*.*.*. The newest version is red. But you dont need to replace it.
thanks it works ill play around with it see how it goes
Hi,
I'm amazed with CM10.1 speed, responsiveness and others, but I hate many things in it. I hate the camera app, widgets bar and that everything is black/blue. Is there any stock rom that could compete with CM10.1?

Its like comparing chips and a mouse. AOKP/AOKP will defaultly be faster because there is less in the actual ROM and default Stock OS has everything the software/phone manufacturer could cram into it eg: Samsung
Your best bet is to go with a stock ROM that is either stripped or one that you can choose the applications you want with it eg: Sotmax... or maybe even a hybrid ROM...
Hope this helps, and please correct me if i have said something wrongly anywhere:good::fingers-crossed::good::laugh:

Hello, everyone. I just bought an old Xperia mini and it is very slow (lagging so much) and I think an upgrade to Kitkat could help it faster but I am not sure about it and do not want to waste the time if it is not really worth it (newbie). So, could you help me with these answer?
1. How approximately fast (percent?) is the Kitkat custom room (carbon rom, pacman...) vs. 4.0.4 Sony xperia mini stock room?
2. How big is the custom room (typically) in comparison to the Sony stock room (My phone always notified me that there is not enough space to install apps despite the fact that I moved most of apps to SD card)
3. (Do not know it is suitable to ask) Which Kitkat custom room is the smallest size? I do not need to customize and my need is very basic.
4. Could I return to Sony stock rom (4.0.4) later if I want?
Thank you

1. it will blast you away. never thought it could be that good (Sony ics is very laggy:silly
2. ROM storage & data (app) storage are to diffrent partition a smalller rom doesent means really u will hav more space for apps, but:
a) never had space probelms with any LX build in apps (& yuo said your needs are basic)
b) u can use mount2sd or app2sd to put apps on SD to gain more space
3. if you say ur needs are basic use LX CM10.1 it has all the basic stuff & works great (better than kitkat bcuz there are many other problems due to lack of proper drivers.) mostly al other roms (PAC & carbon etc) are built on top of it or using as base.
4. yes you can flash a stock ICS ftf file via flashtool. software will be like out of the box.
give your phione some new life & try LX (or based) ROM. its the best at the moment

its just something i would advice to you. you said you have simple needs & all fw (CM -10.1, -10.2, -11) look quite same, only KK CM11 is a bit more with eyecandy. also its the stablest one (best battery & best working drivers from all LX's) at the end its your choice
CM10.1 - stablest & best working
CM 10.2 - somewhere between those two
CM11 - newest
