Nexus JelLy bean Custom roms

hey everyone, now that there are afew custom roms for jelly bean.
Which JB rom works well for u and why?
i hope this will help current ics users who want to get to jb to have a better understanding on the current roms.

Current ROM is in my signature. I'm very minimal when it comes to stuff and really only install ROMs from 3 different devs on this site. No issues at all, boost in performance, normal battery life.

Michael Campos is doing some cool stuffz. just updated 2 of his roms .
he has a cm10 port here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784473
and a clean version (updated today) here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782886
---------- Post added at 03:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 PM ----------
and i would also say the NS4g devs are tending to stick together. (at least until the ota comes out) (or cm10 for crespo4g)

Hello
Have anyother the same issue, that swiftkey isnt longer the default input method, i have this problem with jelly belly also with brainmasters jelly bean rom!

All the dev are doing a good job with their Rom, just have to try them all.

Make sure you have it selected as the default keyboard. I used it with no issues. Have you posted in the respective ROM threads?

Yes i have selected as default keyboard for sure! But after everey reboot i have to do this again! Ok, no because whitout 10 posts it is not possible to post in the ROM threads

Yes, the same here with Swype and Jelly Belly. Need to set it after each reboot. Maybe that's a general JB bug. Please update if you find a solution.

CM9 non-kexec

Does anyone know if there is a non-kexec cm9 port available? Or can i flash the the old version with a new kernal? I have been searching, but it seems that all the focus is on JB. I want to run a stable vanilla build while the kinks get worked out in cm10. Thanks much.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

I am actually curious here. What does CM9/ICS have that the CM10/JB builds don't? I obviously jumped right to JB because I could but is CM9 worth the step back?
Anyway, I think there is a way to remove kexec. I don't have time to search for it right now, but I will try to remember to pop back to this thread tonight and see if anyone else hasn't helped you yet.

CM9 doesn't have any features that CM10 doesn't. I am just looking for a stable daily driver. I tried CM10, and there are a few bugs that are deal breakers for me. I understand CM9 has a stable release, I just can't find anyone that has ported it to the vzw gs3. Thanks for your help, if you come across anything I'd be grateful. I'll keep searching and post if I find any worthy info.

You know, ive been thinking the same thing. Ever since I got my original droid, ive been hooked on CM. Amazingly fast and vanilla. Now that I got rid of my iPhone and got the GS3 for Verizon, I want that goodness back without the nightly status. Jellybean isnt a big deal to me. Im not commiting to CM10 nigthlys till its at least in RC status. But i do however want CM9 stable for the GS3

I'm on offical JB AOKP test build 6. Loving it. Been rocking it for about 5 days without any issues.
I am very particular about bugs too because i use my phone for work so much and can't deal with issues.
You might give it a go.

[Q] Most Complete Least Buggy JB ROM?

I've been playing around flashing new ROM's and they all seem to have issues. Does anyone know which JB ROM has the least amount of issues?

That's subjective. If there was one be all and end all least buggy and "best" ROM I imagine we all would be running it.
What I consider an issue may not be that big of a thing at all for you. Some phones play with each ROM a little differently as well and some bugs may affect yours that don't affect mine.
So you are already doing the best thing flashing and seeing what works best for you and with your phone. The OP of each ROM should tell you major issues affecting each: video not working, torch a little wonky, etc. So that will help you whittle it down a little. Other than that welcome to fun of flashing.

Well it doesn't hurt to ask the opinions of others so long as we all realize that they're opinions and not concrete absolute truths. Right now I'm running the LiquidSmooth R8 ROM and anything that uses voice input crashes. This means JP Google Search is borked! Now is this just my issue? Would a re-flash fix it or is it a known issue? Inquiring minds wanna know....

Ive been running CM10 mainly its super smooth and has good battery life. Remics JB rom is really good also

I've never really used voice input, so Im not going to be the greatest help there. Reflashes do clear up some issues, wouldn't hurt. Maybe even a fresh download of the ROM. If you havent already try inquiring in that particular ROMs thread, to see if anyone else is experiencing the same thing. Good luck
Edit:
If its google search it may be your gapps, make sure you have the most current.

No I haven't , I once tried CM10 from scott. really an amazing rom but i was having lots of problems, while flashing the gaps,
I was doing may be wrong but i was flashing the right things i know, but well somehow i was not able to flash the rom properly, so I flashed this one , its only been a week, i am on this one.
But yes i will definitely give it a shot.
Is this one a complete daily driver ?
Little bugs doesn't matter(it depends) at all, stock had millions of them.!!
I am on 4.1.2 JB, If Slim bean is coming up with 4.2 I am going to try it for sure
Right now really happy with Liquid Smooth.

I see .. just exploring the Rom,
Looks quite awesome man!
Surely going to try it in a day or two.
Thanks for sharing

The thing you have to remember about these JB roms on our Infuse is that we are still using a modded GB kernel. Samsung as far as I know (I could be wrong) hasn't released the kernel source code for our device and it's making it very hard for them to update the kernel. I use Scott's CM10 4.2.1 right now and it's basically been bug free. It doesn't even have all the CM source code merged into it yet. I've never had a rom with so much free memory before! I think it's amazing what he is doing with our old device and he deserves MAJOR props and donations for all his efforts!

Yeah its slim bean that I have personally built from source. I really have zero bugs and use it as my daily driver. I mean it has the same bugs as any jb ROM because we all compile from Scotts cm10 build. Its the exact same as CM 10 except with a TON of custom features! I'm currently working on a 4.2.1 version that looks to hopefully be my smoothest yet. Check it out and lemme know what you think :thumbup:

Most Stable AOSP 4.2.2

Hey guys,
So I really want to get an AOSP rom but seems whenever i go to one i have problems. I tried LiquidSmooth R2 last night and had problems(LED light not working for SMS).
What would you recommend? I keep seeing CM10.1 but theres so many unofficial builds that i dont know which to go with. I just want stability which i know is a big thing ha. Any suggestions?

It honestly depends on what you want in a ROM as what works for me won't be good for you. Right now am running the Avatar ROM which is CM 10.1 with MIUI themes which is stable for me but like all ROMs you might not have the same experience.

Stable
Official cyanogenmods are usually stable. You can look on their site to find their downloads if you're confused by the unofficia; vs official. Other than that as was previously stated, test out the rom (I usually give the rom a week to see what issues may be present) and use that to determine features you may like. If you want recommendations on roms I would say AOSPA (Paranoid Android), AOKP, Cyanogenmod, carbon rom, rootbox, liquidsmooth(but you already used that), Blackbean(You can try 7, but 8 is on the way), and that's pretty much it, also don't completely turn away from unofficial builds yet. Read the forums and find out about them a little. I've been running an unofficial rootbox with cherrypicks for the last two weeks and it is rock solid for example. Hopefully this helps you out with you decision. Have fun and happy flashing

I haven't tried Paranoid. I can say that Slimbeans is very stable, fast and beautifully constructed. You really won't find any problems that don't exist in the 4.22 ROMs, as a whole.

From what I'm gathering in the forums, the stable release if Liquid is coming... Soon... Rejoice and be glad of it.

For me AOKP and Eclipse were the most stable. So it depends on your phone n your setup also preferences

[Q] Recommend a VANILLA Jelly Bean Rom for a noob

Hey!
Soo haven't been on here but I am starting to get bored of Touch Wiz ..so I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a PURE Android Rom, preferably something with all the current Android features that is also stable.
I also want to be able to run Google Wallet & DashClock Widget ..if possible!
Thanks

You can't really go wrong with cyanogenmod. I'm currently running a nightly of CarbonRom and I'm very happy with it. Not sure your going to get Google Wallet on a Verizon phone. DashClock is rolled into CarbonRom from memory.

Have to ask whats the difference from Cyanogenmod & CarbonRom? Since its a nightly is their any problems u encountered?
Thanks

Cyanogenmod is much closer to Vanilla 4.2.2 (but it does have some custom features). CarbonRom gives you a lot more settings that you can tweak (notifications, icons etc) and includes PIE and Halo. cyanogenmod and CarbonRom (on goo.im).
I had to go with the Nighly to get the camera working. The camera did not work on the stable release so it was suggested to use a Nightly.

you can easily get wallet working on a vzw gs3.

I will def look into Cyanogenmod
..also what is this PIE & HALO u speak of?

PIE is a new menu system (best way I can describe it). Halo is much harder to describe, so the video does it better.
