Does anyone else using i9300 face the same problem? I tried various kitkat custom roms (PA, CM, liquid smooth, etc...) and they were all laggy and problematic. They all had video playback issues, game lags and "unfortunately, com.android.systemui has stopped" kept popping up. I decided to flash CM 10.2 jelly bean and everything works pretty much flawlessly. However I've seen many posts of i9300 users giving good reviews on kitkat custom roms
CM11 had many bugs, but the actual snapshot promises to correct some of them...
I run Qaraqumus' QS-4.4.2-rom at this moment and find no bugs after 1d. The problem with S3 is the various hardware: so has a part of the users f.e. always problems with camera, and other people none. You will have to try...

Did you make sure you did a proper clean install before flashing the new next rom?
No custom rom is problem free but in saying that 90% of the people who use them don't have or only have minimal issues.
YES ! I have the same feeling that users give good rating for kitkat roms on s3 while they are actualy unusable for daily use - freezing crashing reboots bugs . I am back on stock 4.3 - with nobloat app to disable some bloatware .
i9300 + slimkat stable 8 + boeflla kernel = awesome performance + no FC + no crash
I have to agree with him although i use temasek unofficial cm11 with boeffla latest ng kernel and don't have restarts, crashes etc its solid as, on 2 of my phones.
Don't use xposed it creates more issues than it solves.
Also talking to someone like that is rude and i have half a mind to report it to the mods, do you honestly think you can tell someone there experience is wrong? 90% of users have no problems. Go troll somewhere else.
If you really want to no go try it yourself its not hard to create a nandroid and test as everyones experience will be different.

Try ArchiDroid 2.5.3 from @JustArchi
Got that one and it works pretty nice
I've run kitkat ever since i rooted quite a few months ago and well yes none are 'perfect' because there no real such thing as perfect. There's always been issues, but none have really bothered me except the system.ui crashing when i open my recents on PA 4.6 beta 3, but since the update it's been fine
Don't feed the troll, it only encourages them.
try neat ROM...never had any prob...if there is..then there's something wrong with your way...or your device
Not sure what you're talking about, I have been using for example PA since June, no issues, doesnt lag, all games work without fcs and are smooth etc etc ,might be you messing up installation or forgetting to wipe something
Why are you people trying to help, or even bothering to acknowledge, a troll. Ignore him, offensive idiots go straight into my ignore list.
What about camera quality? I want to install a KK ROM on my S3, but I don't to lose the camera quality.
I'm using ArchiDroid 2.5.3 (JB) at the moment.

Can anyone recommend a STABLE rom for the Galaxy note. I have been using CM 10.1 for a while and I am sick and tired of the constant lockups, the random restarts, audio not playing when I first boot the phone. Its a nightmare. It would be nice to have a rom as close to AOSP as possible with spen support. Most roms are to fancy. I'm looking for something strait android jelly been that actually runs properly.
Any recommendations would be great, thanks in advance.

I have tried almost each and every rom over here on this forum. I found the Rootbox, Slimbean and the Beanstalk almost close to stable. Right now trying revolt, so far so good.
well, i would recommend using either Padawan jb2 or blackstar jelly beta. They're both 4.1.2 but very stable... i stay away from the 4.2.2 jb roms just because of random reboots or lockups... i've pretty much tried them all and just end up going back to those 2.. Atm i'm using padawan jb2 over blackstar because of the jedi theme
You posted this im wrong section. ..mod will move it soon
I've been on AOKP since it started. I had some freezing and reboots at first. But the latest build has had zero. Running perfectly.
I'll also mention that before this update,I did flash the stock JB and then moved to AOKP.
Ive got a stable 4.2.2 build pme me if you want it

the only other 2 really remaining are Blackstar and Padawan........they are both AOSP and built with stability in mind.
every phone is different including yours. the results you are getting with AOKP are pretty much across the board and affect the majority. im sure there are a few lucky ones though.
FOR ME.............Padawan has been the FOSHIZZLE MY NIZZLE. not without its out of the gate tweaking needed. for me though, and its NOT something you ever hear, I have not had 1 single reboot. I have ran it longer than anything else I have ever run. you don't have many updates and the thread is pretty quiet lately. I believe it is because it is running so well.
wont lie to you, the only real issue people have is with lag, BUT there is a fix or more of a tweaking that folks do with orgasmic results.
good luck in your quest, we are here if you need us.

blackstar and padawan are based on official tw jb not aosp. that is why they are stable. i use stock rom that i debloated of everything i dont use and phasekernel. everything works and no reboots.
i think we need to convince our friendly neihborhood moderator kennyglass123 to build the peoples rom for the note. it was the best rom i had on my epic.

Just tried out Padawan... its a winner, except that my 64GB microsd doesn't work for some reason. It works fine on the stock rom.
As stated above I found 4.1 to be stable on my i717 ran some 4.2 cool options and looks great but I could not stop those dang reboots going to stick to 4.1 for now.
also not sure but feel like battery life might be a little better at the moment I'm running blackstar jelly beta if anyone has an idea of how to get 4.2 stable with no freezes please post
also on a few different roms 4.2
three to be exact gave the lines after blacking screen out you can fix by disabling hw overlays but annoying

Most of the recommendations are all for custom roms that have some kind of non ASOP features. It would be cool to find something like CM that didn't reboot constantly.
You would think that since this rebooting problem has been going on for ages that it would be top priority. However, its like they don't care. I have heard of some people solving it by flashing a different kernel. Does anyone have a recommended kernel? Maybe even something that can be overclocked for 4.2.2. What do I need to look for regarding kernels?

Audio problems: place a file called "local.prop" in your /data folder. In that file, add the lines:
lpa.decode=false
lpa.use-stagefright=false
These override the build.prop errors and allow audio to play. You can correct them in the build.prop file, but they get re-written every time you flash an update. Putting them in the local.prop file allows you to write the file once and "forget" about them.
On the nightlies, for the last two weeks or so, I've had good luck with stability. 90-ish hours on 7/01 before I crashed it to update to 7/04.
IMHO, Most crashing behavior can be traced to kernel irregularities, or poorly coded apps (Facebook being king in this respect). Just about every nightly rebooted frequently on mine if I tried fooling with overclocking. Once I stopped the OC attempts, stability returned.
Some apps will never be cleanly coded, either due to bad programming, or (as in facebook's case) too much fluffy functionality.

Just tried that and my audio still doesn't play after boot. I have to kill the app once and then it plays fine just like before. I already had the file local.prop in /data so I just edited it. I added those lines to the bottom of the file. When I click on an audio file in ES or try to play any kind of media file in another program I can wait a few minutes for it to force close and then it works fine until I reboot again.
I'm using the 7/4 nightly right now. It has rebooted about twice a day since flashing. That's actually about average. It reboots more if I use my phone more. It doesn't seam to matter what app I'm in. However, it happens more often when I'm typing. I use thumb keyboard. However, I tried the stock keyboard for a few days and had the same results.
I have heard many people have great success flashing a different kernel. However, no one ever mentions what kernel they use. Do you have any recommendations. I am not interested in overclocking as much as I want stability.

I just edited those lines in the build.prop and that solved my problem with the audio. Thanks!!!!!!
Could I have edited the wrong local.prop or is there a chance my phone isn’t using it for some reason? I edited the file in /data I added those lines to the bottom of the file with a space above them.
The file contained one line
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

Hi everybody,
I have been trying roms for months. I donate some of them, I reported bugs, I really gave lotst of times for this work. I just wanted to have a rom that newer Android... I am really tired of trying... I realize that; this is wasting time. I could not find a rom that works perfect or without issue. People say, "Stable/great/perfect rom, you should try" but when we try, it have lots of problems.
Finally, Am I going to have a newer really stable Android, without problem or lag?
Addition:
Finally
I found this rom
Mokee http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596176
It is just what was i looking for...
Addition 2:
After 1 week, Mokee get laggy specially while incoming call. Phone ringing but caller screen came 4-5 seconds later.
Changed rom to SlimKat Beta 2.3
I have been using SlimKat more than 3 weeks.
Just one problem: Can not install some apps like xda app (error about sd card)
No more problem.
I suggest SlimKat.
no proper drivers for custom kexec kernel means... never ... sad but true ... get nexus device as i will... shame for moto and their bootloader lock such good device wasted...
Listen you maybe just wasting time but u also need to see that a majority of the users are having a good stable for most things. Sometime you have issues that could be that you have you caused it. Just my opinion my xt912 is running fine on cm11

I can understand that you are annoyed by trying ROM that turn out to be everything else but stable.
I had that too but to be fair I must say that my Stock ROM wasn't 100% stable either.
The good thing about this is: it's all voluntarily, so everybody can choose the personal best solution
Try china stock, used almost half year without any issue, hdmi and 1080p is perfect.

For example, I tried
Mokee
CM11
Slimbean
Slimkat
Artmod
Gummy
Eclipse
Miui
Some unoffical roms,
And i can say that, i tried to flash all of them bmm and also safestrap times and times. But all of them have problem that does not available to use daily.
If you ask that; what hell are you looking for?
I just looking for a newer android version (than stock 4.1) that working without problem (I dont care camera, webtop, hdmi )
Well, Can you offer a rom 4.3 or 4.2 working perfect?

I have learned here @xda there is a work-a-round for most anything U may be having issues with. Of course with Kexec some things just are not possible, yet.. To sum it up, there is an app for everything (almost) the only work-a-round I have not been able to accomplish or find here would be HDMI as I have to switch back to stock if I would like to use my phone with my TV and or computer but I am definitely not complaining this is for sure.

I have been running stock on my Razr Maxx (XT912) for over a year but it got bloated and VERY slow so I wanted to ROM this phone finally (I had messed around with my prior Droid X phone alot ).
Unfortunately ROMs always failed when I tried them. Unable to open zip in safestrap (updated to 3.65). I couldn't find a good answer to this problem so factory reset and tried again....no go...still failing. Verified the downloads. They are good. Rage/ Slim ROMs, CM 10 and 11...nothing works. I finally try to reflash my phone with the utility, but I used the wrong/ old one...phone no longer boots....uh oh!
Found the proper utility (updated batarang one) and ran it and I am able to boot again....but I'm still stock.
Reinstall Safestrap 3.65 and retry ROMing this thing. CM 11 (12-27) takes. Flash gapps and kernal. All is well. Double wiped cache/ dalvic between each step.
Been 24 hours now and I have had a couple crashes. Had to reinstall, then uninstall and reinstall dolphin browser to get it to work.
Just tried a pic and it worked fine...Gallery from phone crashed but opened fine separately.
The only problem I have with it so far is that PDAnet does not work. So I'll have to swap over to stock for net access that way.
I still have to learn the in and outs of the experience (?) launcher, but it is working pretty well for something that is still experimental. This is my one and only phone...my daily driver ... so I can't do with a lot of bugs. But of course my expectations are tempered by the fact I know I am not using a fully released ROM. I can say that my phone is running better than before and I get to have the fun of learning the new ways to use the phone with the improvements/ changes of the latest android.
I have read quite a few posts of people being upset that the ROMS aren't perfect. Read the posts about your particular ROM. Be sure you can deal with the bugs they list (usually on the first page/ post) and if not, don't use it. Also do a clean install the first time. Also follow the directions and read before you leap.

I have to say, MIUI has been the most consistent in performance. Only problem is that I've got an XT912 and I had no data while I used it. I only used it for two weeks, but during those two weeks it performed beautifully.
I am having the same issues as the OP. After about a month of use the ROM starts freezing and rebooting from time to time and overall feeling VERY sluggish. A fresh install always fixes this. I'm currently running CM10 and it as worked well for the longest by far, but is now awful. Stock is also subpar after a month of use.
Ok guyz

Hi guys I have'nt found much information on this forum regarding the intermittent lag/crashes on G2s that I'm experiencing (d802 version specifically) running kitkat aosp ROMs so I thought I might report my experience to see if I'm not alone here.
After I upgraded from CM 10.2 to CM11 my device would start lagging at random times during the day followed itevitably by a crash mostly after about 3 minutes of use (messaging, browsing, youtubing etc) where the screen would freeze and go black (and eventually come back.)
A reboot was always necessary which resolved the problem temporarily. These crashes happened between 1-3 times per day and were extremely frustrating.
The device in question is a d802 running CM11 and stock kernel.
They happened after fresh installs, even with only system apps. I tried flashing a custom kernel, playing with different settings and switching to other kitkat ROMs with little to no change.
I finally bit the bullet and switched back to CM10.2 stable and all is well with my phone now. I couldn't make the phone lag if I tried, its back to its beasty glory.
This device clearly must have an issue with Aosp ROMs on kitkat (or maybe I just picked a bad one) and its a real shame. If anyone has the same problem please share your experiences and maybe we can get to the bottom of this thing

Tried PA and CM11, both really buggy, just like the op described. Flashed cm10.2 but it just doesnt work with my fitbit so now ive gone back to stock. While stock is good, it just feels so sow compared to asop based roms.
If you want a AOSP rom really hard, try "Mahdi" rom.. i tried it for a day and it fits perfectly for me
But now i'm on stock rom (CloudyStock) because... it's awesome and i like the LG UI
Using Mahdi combined with the furnace kernel, no slowdowns and very rarely do I get random reboots. Highly suggested :good:
I have these freezes several times a day too. I noticed one time that my systemui stopped working with it
my guess: maybe it has something to do with the systemui?
CM11 ran great for me on my D801, but I just couldn't deal with the in call echo issue.

Pretty surprising that all the big players like cm or aokp would be the buggiest. At least there's other options for an upgrade

blame closed source drivers. the devs making these customs pull hattricks so you can have a custom rom. All without documentation and such, thats why they can be buggy.

Is the speed really noticeable?
Or
Is it worth it to upgrade just because of this speed factor?

Thanks for all the great suggestions guys. I'm currently using the latest carbon ROM nightly and its running like clockwork. Will update if anything changes though.
But its definitely worth experimenting with other ROMs.

@coolerboyj, I just tried it. I turned off the wifi, then rebooted, and the device booted into android as expected.
I have not tried shift with Omni 5.0, but it should work well.

This rom does have random reboots when opening games, like Clash of Clans (works like 20% of the time)
I was wondering if there was a fix.
Thanks in advance

Regarding the random reboots, are you using the stock kernel?

yes am using the stock kernel, didnt mess with anything at all
Good to know. I haven't experienced any of the random reboots yet, but I am not a heavy-user beyond a few utility apps, text, email, and calling.
I do know that there seem to be a considerable number of apps that work fine on 4.4 that exhibit undesirable behavior on 5.0. It isn't obvious whether the issues are app compatibility, or that our device tree isn't yet up to par, or that android 5 isn't yet up to par (or even all of the above).

am not a heavy user myself but i think you are right about andoid 5 isnt ready yet, actually it reminds me exactly of mircrosoft and the transformation from windows 7 to windows 8

Yes, the one thats provided with the ROM.

I think i9100 lollipop rom by @Lysergic Acid also doesn't have "No Sound issue on outgoing calls"
Can I flash omni using CWM recovery. I'm using shift kernel and cyanidel from @rogersb11.

If you are using my kernel and the philz recovery that comes with it you can flash anything lol
My phone burns and reboot when I try to open some apps.
I need some help for this, I'm using OmniRom 5.0.2 lollipop unofficial and when I use the music player of the rom, my phone gets so hot and battery drains to fast, also reboot when try to use other apps from the play store like, youtube, etc... everything else works fine. I want to know if you are going to fix the other bugs like the outgoing calls, etc..??
BTW, thank you so much for your effort on this rom, i really like OmniRom and I hope you can make it better and keep GS2 alive
I have found that there are specific apps that cause the device to immediately reboot. I believe this to be mainly a result of the current memory issues regarding this device and Lollipop.
I haven't experienced any heating issues beyond the initial firmware settling (scanning the device) .
I hope to be able to find a solution to all bugs, but I cannot promise that it will happen.

@rogersb11,
I don't see anything onvious here at all. The call goes through, so it isn't even obvious which errors are relevant if any. Maybe you've already looked through one of these:

Just seeing this, sorry. I'll pull it now, this call bug log?
Edit: I see that it is, hard to scan it well on my phone, I'll look once I'm at my computer. I updated audio stuff before my last build but no luck. I think using a prebuilt hwcomposer from kk would solve many many issues with video etc. That's what we did for n2 and we don't have official cm12 either. I need to pull a kk zip to get the hwcomposer and see how that works. Also I may need to build an i777 almost stock kernel with my n2 source because only my kernel on n2 will allow working everything hardware. My i777 kernel is based on cm but my n2 is Samsung kernel source 3.0.31 that has been routinely merged with aosp. Quick glance looks like audio isn't routing properly but I could be wrong. It's such a strange bug since it works just fine after flipping on and off. Again sorry for the delay, I seriously only get about 15% of the notifications I should
Yeah, this is the call log, and without something flagrantly crashing (and leaving a better calling card) I have nothing specific to look into.
No worries about the notification, I've been working on slim with warrior1208. ... Although until slim is back online, that project is almost stalled.
We'll have a proper daily driver if we can get this. I can't help but wonder if some of the "under the hood fixes" of 5.1 may help. Prolly just wishful thinking.

Right now I currently despise 5.1 LOL. Not that it's bad but I have to start over if I want it. Hey, I remember you cooking your mobo awhile back, used to do it all the time but can't remember. What temperature and for how long did you do it? I wanna give it a go on MTT jtagged Xbox. It finally fried so figure might as well give it a shot, heat gun isn't working and my reball machine crapped out least year so I sold it to someone willing to fix it at the time

I used this procedure once to cook the mobo and it worked out for me. I was skeptical but it works:

385 for ten minutes brought me success. For two different devices.
I noticed that 5.1 seemed to temporarily push asimovi's progress backward a bit, which is a part of why I haven't published a 5.1 Omni. I lost internal storage again, and haven't found the culprit. I keep forgetting to look into system_vold.
5.0 should have been a test release.
so I've got my hands on a touchpad but am unsure which rom to install
i'm not to concerned about bleeding edge, I just want a ROM that's fast / stable and fairly recent
any suggestions would be really appreciated !
I've heard a lot of people really like the CM11 4.4.4 ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2712680
I've been using Evervolv 7.1.1, and I really like it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hp-touchpad/development/rom-evervolv-7-0-0p1-wifi-t3456292/page100

I haven't used the 4.4.4 build, so I can't comment on it's speed. A lot of people regard it as the most stable, how.
As I said, I use 7.1.1 Evervolv. I've had versions of Evervolv that have been laggy/slow in the past, but it is very snappy/usable.
CM11 is the Best rom for stability

Get CM11 android 4.4.4 if you want stability. Yes the Evervolv rom lags or hangs sometimes. I'm still having issues with the screen becoming unresponsive people are calling it lag. I have to be careful playing Clash of clans on it cause the screen has frozen up on me several times during clan wars. The latest roms always have the most bugs to sort out.

I've found evervolv to be way too laggy with to many black screens.
Cm11 is way more stable but is also not smooth, I'd love to speed it up even more if possible, read something about f2fs but it's probably not doable with j this rom?
The way some people go on about a rom, you'd think the rom eliminated lag completely
