Perks of going "official" jb over CM10?(NS4G) - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's the point when burnsra cm10 is nearly bugless and so smooth while having the ability to customize? What're you gaining out of it?

Then go for cm10. Some people like having the stock feel.

It was a question, All Wise One. Questions are usually asked when someone is unaware. I am "unaware" of any perks there may be for going stock, so I asked. See how that works?

Came off the wrong way. My apologies. I like to run stock because its not bloated with features. Slim, simple, and smooth. No frills so less can go wrong.

I still have an EVO, evo had froyo forever. I guess omega's answer summed it all up. I suppose my preference is in favor of AOSP.

ICS:
1. AOKP
2. CM9
3. Provision (Right now actually)
JB:
1. CMX (so far only because its probably the most stable JB ROM with 99.8% of everything working)
2. Stock (AOSP)
3. Jellyvision (which will probably shoot up to 1 for awesomeness (I'm entitled to my own opinion, I'm sorry if this offends you))
It all depends on what you want, people view perks different ways. Some are featureholics. Some are minimalistic, just your personal preference.

I'm not going to carry a non-stock phone until it is covered by warranty.
Restoring a stock image could be impracticable (i.e. USB port damage).

Already is, since AOSP based roms (like cyanogen) and phones run 2.3.5 and the HTC version for the Thunderbolt is 2.3.4. Anyways, one doesn't stay stock and expect to be bleeding edge (unless you have a nexus phone).

What's the chances of a MIUI rom?

Thinking of either keeping the MT4GS I picked up or getting a Sensation, I like MIUI as a rom but noticed there aren't many roms here. I know the bootloader is getting unlocked but curious if anyone knows of one being developed or in the works? Seems a little light on the rom development side but most phones start out that way. I remember when I had a G2 and there weren't many there either.
We need a stable cm official and source merged first...wait since kornyone is working on CM9

That's a shame, this phone has great potential but doesn't seem like a lot of people are taking to it. I know it hasn't been out long but really a good device over the G2 in my opinion for the keyboard

I agree with you. TDJ made my 4G rock. Then my hardware buttons decided to stop working. Tmobile sent me a replacement that had the bad screen twice so they sent me this slide. Staying stock until a rom comes out that works for me. And I hate stock. Might break out my vibrant for a while.

Actually xda developers has always been a site for 3rd party development. Stock wasn't what things were about in its inception. There's really no need for this site if you are stock as all you will get is minimal support of take it to said carrier or send it back to OEM. A lot of people have no idea what this site is supposed to be for it appears.

@dwitherell is the dev that has tweaked. It is ICS, but he has talked about updating it.

I just don't think there is a strong want for touchwiz. It would take a lot of work to get it going. I would suggest finding a blaze dev that would do it and get some donations together.
Yeah the chops needed to craft JB TW on the Blaze are well beyond me. I started updating and further tweaking the ICS-based rom I put together, but I'm not a real dev, just a smali-hack sort that focuses primarily on tinkering with carrier-pushed stock packages.

Sure (that's what I was thinking), but it would likely need to be from a similar device (or at least much easier if so) - still out of my skillset though, and from my understanding they can be painful to pull off (disclaimer: never did one so I don't know - the exhilerate one doesn't count as I did next to nothing for it).

Since we don't have JellyBean for the Blaze it wont be "stock" possible. Unless you're okay with a CM themed ROM that makes it look like Touchwiz..

I have a non-booting one. Stuck with some errors (which I've forgotten what they were). If I can find it I might look into it. I haven't been on in awhile so if I my ask. Is there a 4.3 version of Remics-JB floating around?
Well for the blaze.. Not currently... If you're asking about a 4.3 version of Remics-JB, im not sure either, as since the only way i knew about it was cause of my galaxy player, which I traded for store credit.. But I'm sure with all our support, testing and whatnot.. Who's to say we can't get a booting remics-jb ROM? We've made it this far right?

Need ROM suggestion for mom's phone

I don't own the skyrocket but my mom does. She is having some issues with the ROM I flashed long ago so I figure now is a good time to upgrade. What do you suggest for stability and battery life? I don't care which version of android or cutting edge features but I do care about everything working all the time as I live several hours from her and just can't fix things for her at any time.
Let me know what you recommend and why. The more detail the merrier. Thanks!

I believe what he's meaning is since you can't up and drive down the street to fix her device, you should stay as close to bone stock as possible. I keep my mom rooted with custom recovery only so I can back up the device data in case of hardware/software failure. But she is bone stock at&t 4.1.2, which was a huge leap of change from 2.3 for her. She is 16 hr drive from me.
My wife has this phone and I've found the easiest to transition into android has been MIUI ROM for her. Everything is pretty stable and has the general functionality needed.
Not the latest and greatest since it's on 4.1.2, but works well.
