I saw the new Galaxy Nexus on the Google Store; how does this compare to the Skyrocket? I've just been thinking what phone I will want to upgrade to next. Should I wait for the Galaxy S3? I'm bad at keeping up with phones and was just wondering what the natural next upgrade from a Skyrocket will be. I've found I don't particularly like the large size of the phone, it's low resolution, and especially the Samsung bloatware (I'm using a Custom ROM so I don't have to worry about it anymore but I still don't like it being on there to begin with).
Perhaps you could join this conversation in one of the 2-3 already existing threads, instead of everyone making new ones every 10 minutes.

You could have posted a link.
Or given me your opinion.
Or you could just stop being a smug prick. I was clear I didn't know what I was doing or even what to look for in regards to this discussion.

Don't mine x, he's usually very helpful. He gets grumpy in his cage though when he isn't fed.
As a new user the best advice I can give u is to search before posting anything new in a thread, whether it be for discussions purposes, or posing a question. Searching first is rule 1 of xda, which u agreed to when u signed up

I know to search, I read the rules. I didn't know what to search for because my question is a bit more tailored. It's not just Galaxy Nexus vs. Skyrocket. But anyways... yeah...

They are not based on aosp, they are based off the sdk but with a few fixes from aosp
Word. This question has NOT been answered, nobody has put up a development thread for an AOSP based rom. While this is not the right place to ask the question, it is definitely a valid one.

This is NOT a valid question. It requires a ridiculous level of obliviousness to think that you'd be the only person to think that porting AOSP JB would be a good idea. Of course people are working on it. Jeez, it's like people are getting less intelligent with each passing day.

Yea then i asked so i can help. So i was asking about progress and what help was needed with porting. And NO i cant tell what people are up to. Of course im not psychic like u

Throwing in the first punch.... *punch*
It's true that its a valid question but at the same time this is placed in the wrong thread. Maybe Q&A would be a better place.. so any admin please move this.
As for your question... it has been answered by previous replies.
Can someone tell me who the Mod for this forum is? I have seen way too many pointless threads being started and would like to report them.
Just click on report. They will get it. You don't have to personally contact a mod

^^^This! Ask in the Q&A section of your device you will get much more exposure
Sent from my CLEAN Note ll
This is my favorite "best" ROM/Kernel question. Because it is both at the same time! Please don't ask best ROM, best Kernel, best APP, etc questions. This will always be a personal choice - even for something like battery life, because that will depend on how you use your device.
Try them out for yourself and decide. That is one of the funnest things about xda!
Thread closed.
Is that true?

Being a senior member, you ought to know by now that battery life depends on a lot of factors, especially the way the device is set up and used. No one can say for sure mate!
Thread closed.
Hello guys
which combination of rom and kernel scores the best battery life?
It's simple:
Kernel: Usage differs
Rom: Questions Belong in Q&A based on 4.4
Sorry if my answer may be 'cocky' but we've got a special section on XDA for questions and answers.

Use the search feature in xda, there are many tips for battery improvement.
On other hand, i get 5 hours 30mins SOT on wifi and 4 hours SOT on 4G with stock rom and with medium usage.
No matter what you do, flashing diff rom/kernel won't get you any proper battery improvement. Just stick with stock rom and wait for Android L for a better battery performance and usage.
Yes stick with stock..
Battery is nothing to do with ROM and kernel combination. It is to do with ROM and kernel settings.

Read the first 4 posts in the battery thread in my signature.
And as pointed out above....roms/kernels make a very minor, if any difference to battery life.
Setup, usage and signal strength are the main factors. ?

If there was anything that was "best for battery life", wouldn't someone have been able to prove it by now?
I guess it doesn't help with so many claiming their new ROM/kernel has greatly increased their battery time. Subjective opinions with out proper testing shouldn't be taken as fact though.

think about how many people using any kernel/rom claim that its the best for battery. then again, there are just as many people that claim that the certain kernel/rom give them the same battery life. in reality though, its all about you. how you use your device, how you set it up, which apps you use, etc. but there is one variable that you have no control over, thats the quality of your phone/data connection. and that will determine what is the best battery possibility is for you. if your phone/data signal isnt good quality, then your battery life will always suffer, no matter what.
9 times out of 10....it's the flashing the new Rom and or kernel that clears out an undiagnosed battery issue they had and magically their battery life seems awesome on the new Rom or kernel. ?

Yep. Maybe someone(hint hint) should start an "All-in-one Best thread". Since the reversal of XDA policy I would much rather see all this nonsense contained to one singular thread than reposted in different forms every six hours. I would do it but I'm lazy and wouldn't be able to give that thread the attention it deserves. Just some food for thought.

It's been suggested to do that, like the N7 2012 has had for awhile....but the individual threads are still allowed and preferable to one dedicated thread.
That was told to me. Reason is the "best" questions usually come with something else. Not just "best Rom"....usually best for this or that....or comparing this to that.
I like the one thread idea....but it what it is and those resisting it are best to let it go and ignore the threads if that's their choice.
That was also said by moderators.
Just letting everyone know. ?

I just PM'd one of our mods about the issue. He said he'd go over it with the Mod committee. I also asked for it to be started by a mod and stickied. We'll see what happens. Either way it's the same stuff repeated over and over. Copy and paste. lol

I asked for some rules. Eg "what ROM has this feature set" = yes, ambiguous best threads = no.
However we probably shouldn't hijack these threads to discuss it.
Everyone with suggestions pm a helpful mod such as @El Daddy and maybe we'll get a compromise, but for now let's just answer the threads with the usual answers

Anyone asking questions like this should stick to stock rom and kernel.
If you can't be bothered to actually use some roms and kernels and tell us what you think how can you evaluate an answer?
Also, obviously you are getting into a touchy area and rejecting anything rom/kernel devs can have to say about it. You want them to come here and battle it out for you?
There is no such thing as best, and many of the custom roms and kernels make a good combo. Look at the rom and kernel threads and decide which gives you the options you want.
