This is something I've always wanted for my G3, a vanilla ROM that's always up to date with the latest Android version, but without any "extras" and "features" seen in typical ROMs. I don't like having to deal with frequent ROM updates that add new features/create new problems. I just want a clean ROM that works like a Nexus device.
Why does this not exist?
(If it already exists I have not come across it yet)

When you say vanilla I'm assuming you mean AOSP, in that case we do have cm12.1, but I don't know if that's what you mean when it comes to "frequent ROM updates"
But if you're asking as to why we don't have a stock 5.1 ROM, that would be because LG hasn't released a base for it yet

CM is not aosp based, it's cm based.
Yes, the argument could be made that everything starts with aosp, but AFAIK there is little true aosp left in cm, and mostly custom cm code.
As for the op,
You get what devs decide to build. Your question is borderline offensive.

Well, you could always start a stock rom, root it, and use Titanium Backup to remove any feature you don't want and arrive to a "vanilla ROM". The ROM development is a hobby for the dev, so of course there are "frequent ROM updates". By the way, LG has not released the 5.1 yet, they are still on 5.0.1 (23c).

Been using validus for days. Works great. No freezes. Don't use the features if you don't want em.

Hello,
I came here desperate for answers that could solve my problem with "M-signature" not working on custom (not SAM-based) ROMs.
"M-signature" (aka "Mobile ID") is a way to connect to bank via phone (you get a special personal SIM card, you go to your e-banking site, enter your phone number, get a pop-up message on phone screen (see attached), enter PIN on the phone and voila - connected into e-bank).
This "M-signature" works on Stock Rom, also on Samsung based ROMs: null_ ROM v25, NeatROM EMC2, UltimaRom v11, but doesn't work with AOSP (Slim Bean, Dragon SlimBean), AOPK/CM (Pac-man), MIUI (_miui.polymorph_)...
Problem is I love Slim Bean or Pac-man and can't really get used to sam-based (they're ugly, i find them slower, battery not appealing, etc.) - could I find a way to make that "M-signature" work on AOSP/AOPK/CM ROMs??
Biggest thanks in advance.

It shouldn't act like that, android app should be compatible with everything running an android, not only samsung. Unless it's dedicated only to GT-I9300.
I know this won't solve your issue but there are plenty of samsung-based roms with really cool aosp themes, bunch of tweaks and really well made. I don't want to recommend my own work but take a look if you wish, perfect example of stock rom with non-stock look.

Thnx JustArchi for answer (at least somebody wrote smth ).
That is not an app - it's a SIM card "feature" (a special, associated with my personal info (from my passport) SIM card which, I guess initiates those "pop-up messages").
It works this way: you go to www.example-mybank.com, enter there my ID and phone number, then (i guess) the special SIM card pushes a message "do you want to connect" (and shows control code to be sure it's your connection), enter your special PIN, and SIM card gives command to my bank "OK, let him in, it's really <Evaldino>" and the e-bank opens up for me
So, I guess it's something with "SIM services" (don't know how to call them - I'm a noob user), which work only on Stock or Sam-based ROMs, so perhaps CM/AOSP/MIUI lack a "module" or smth for these "SIM services" to work...
Also, this M-signature works on all smart devices (not only Samsung, not only Android, also on iOS, maybe even WinOS).
I see no other option as to try those SAM-based (though not really happy about that), so I'll definetely look into your ROM (I like 240DPI, circular battery, if only 4x4 pattern lock for locking screen), because for ex. on ReVolt (Sam-based, yes?) "m-signature" doesn't work (though I kind of liked this ROM)..
To be honest I'm surprised it works at all on a rooted device bearing in mind security etc....many banking apps/features won't work, especially with insecure kernel....I guess for a good reason...although not being particularly tech I wouldn't like to even attempt to explain why!
Please mind you that it may work on AOSP like the nexus builds but not work on CM based roms as they change ALOT of the AOSP code. That includes alot of the security protocols.

You have a point here.. didn'nt even think about that.. However, I'm not very "paranoid" and I don't think it's very insecure (to my little android security understanding)

But I tried my beloved Slim Bean (AOSP based, right?) - not working.. maybe it's "too much changed" AOSP? What i9300 ROM is "purest" AOSP - I'll try?

There are no pure aosp roms for most devices. They all use something from CM. Be it kernel or some of the coding as aosp only supports the nexus line as a base. Everything else is a fork.

So, how did you solved this problem, if you did? I wonder if this problem we are facing is only applicable in Lithuania as I can't even google some more sources on this issue...

Actually I just flashed this one [ROM][Mar 17] Jellybean 4.2.2 for Endeavoru AOSP Build [Kernel 3.1.10] [JDQ39] #19 and at last it works! Will try to use this ROM for some time to be sure everything works, but it at least the biggest problem is solved.
By the way, I forgot to mention in my first post, I'm on HTC One X (International version with Tegra), but hope there is a workaround for SIII too.
For Samsung Galaxy Mini there is AOSP ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2413108)
I do not know, how silly is my question..
Why no one is attempting to build Gingerbread/Jelly Bean roms for Moto E.
I feel there are wide varieties of ROMs available in GB Version, like Mokee, Joy OS, MIUI, Lewa, DX, Sense3, etc., which will be a real visual treat for eyes.
Just sharing a thought flickered in my mind..

Gingerbread and jellybean were never in visioned for this device. To bring those android versions to this device would take major back porting which would be silly. Those android versions contain no where near the features of our current kikat and upcoming lollipop. I hope that answers your question.

Adding on to what Alex has said, alot of the ROM's you mentioned have bases that are either KitKat or Lollipop (I know Mokee and MIUI have Lollipop bases in the latest version and Lewa is working on it). If you want this ROM's for the Moto E you can download the source for these ROM's and try compiling them for the Moto E.
I have time and I like building ROMs, but I have a problem, there are a lot of roms and limited storage in my computer. So I can build at least 6 different roms.
I already have Resurrection Remix(CMbased), AOKP(wont boot, for now, when they used some CM stuff like KK may work), BlissPop(finish download of sources as I'm writing this), OMNI(the same as AOKP), DU(I'll download it tonight), SOKP(I don't know anything about this rom in LP, but in KK was very good) and PAC(to build UMTS).
These is what I have now(I know I say 6 different roms and I have 7 ), roms CMBased is easy and only use 2/3 GB on my Computer but for example DU and AOKP are AOSP based so this roms may work because all the parts of the rom are directly from Google and don't have any modifications like CM does to make it compatible with our device, some things I can do to make it work like AOKP KK, but LP is starting and every version 5.0, 5.0.2, 5.1.0 have a lot of changes between versions and Google does not give time for developers to make enough changes to achieve a stable version, so I don't have any base to use or pick changes.
Only told me what rom do you want and I see what can I do
Regards and sorry for the inconvenience.
I heard that BlissPop is good and I want to try it but I also like what you did with RR and Aokp...
I don't know,maybe the best thing would be to make one but awesome rom!
I'll be happy with your decision :thumbup:
Sent from my Razr XT910
I'll try anything based on AOSP. Since you are having problems with AOKP, I will try DU and Omni... Thanks, @tonyt.!
Just yesterday I got a Samsung Galaxy Tab E (SM-T560) and immediately I rooted it. The device is running Android 4.4.4 KitKat. While I think for the price this tablet is fantastic, I want Marshmallow on this device. I don't believe hardware is a limiting factor here based on the research I did, although I am very aware that the tablet is not a flagship by any means. I got the tablet as a device to mess around with, but after hours of searching I cannot find any custom ROMs for this device. Cyanogenmod don't even support this device. This came as a huge surprise to me as this tablet is pretty popular and from 2015. I kept on looking and apparently a lot of people had trouble rooting this device, so I'm wondering if this is why there has not yet been any ROMs released for the device. The device is just about usable in this state, but coming from someone with three phones all running Android 6.0 and above (two of those devices being Nexuses) using KitKat and moreover KitKat skinned with TouchWiz is a lot to get used to.
Does anyone know of any custom ROMs for the SM-T560? Maybe I'm just blind and missed something. If there aren't any ROMs, would building a version of Cyanogenmod 13 be the best option? Also, I am very curious: Why have we not yet seen any ROMs? Popularity isn't an issue, neither is specs, the rooting process was painless for a newbie like me, so I'm really interested to know.
Thanks!

Hi guys, I recently found that Sony officially supports AOSP build on some devices.
https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/#overview-content
However, I have some questions. Does AOSP mean "stock android"? I.e. what the Google Pixel devices are using?
As sony's own ROM does not differ much from the stock android, I really want to try it.
Has anyone succeeded the AOSP Android 13 on XQ-BC52?

AOSP means AOSP, Android in it's purest form, without google apps by default
Pixel Android is a form of stock android but stock just means official fw.
AOSP is even less feature packed, it's the bare bones android experience mainly for developers/OEM, but it's then derived into custom ROMS with other features on top of that AOSP
