[Q] [noob] Best Rom?

Hi, mitchel0 here
I just recently got my first android phone, the at&t USA HOX. Since A root exploit was just found, and I really want jellybean, I was wondering what the current best rom for this phone is. I have no prior experience in android and am a noob. I am looking for functionality, stability, compatibility, and battery life, so please recommend me what the current best is. Thanks!
P.S do i need to flash a radio, or do roms come with those? If I do, what radio? Thanks!

If you rooted from 2.20 you can't flash a radio.
There is no "best" Rom. Go flash and experiment
Best rom threads are against the rules as wellm

Everyone I have seen on the One XL is using the Viper XL ROM. Very smooth, fast, lots of mods.

I flashed codename android, and it's awesome, I'll get around to flashing some others eventually

cm10 is the best!

CM10 is great. However, h8rift, the developer, is doing a lot of work to the kernel right now, so it will be 1000x better soon. :highfive:

best is a matter of opinion

Stop encouraging this behavior by posting the "best" Rom.
I haven't even tried some of them, but I'm not gonna go around saying "x is the best"

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::reported to mods::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

ROM selection is a personal preference. What works for one person, may not for another. Because of this, "best rom" threads really serve no.purposem The best way to find out what ROM will work for you, is to research, flash, and experiment.

[Q] Best kernel for battery life?

Hello everyone,
I am running CM10 stable build on my Skyrocket and I'm looking for the best kernel for extended battery life. Could you suggest any?
I took a look at the faux123 kernel but thats only for ROMs built on Gingerbread.
Thanks in advance,
Wozzi7

Try kernels for cm10 for yourself and find out. Best threads are frond upon

As jd said try some different kernels. Although recognize that great battery life can be achieved on stock kernel. Your settings are more important than the kernel you use.

I apologize for starting a 'best thread'.
My understanding of kernels is that they are hardware specific, meaning they are meant for specific devices... right?
Or are they software specific i.e. only works for cm10, paranoid android, etc.?

Hardware. Only flash what's specific for your device or you will brick. Also specific to the Rom type. Ie, cm 10, touch wiz, etc.

Hardware specific ie Skyrocket only and software specific. Software wise they are broken down into 2 categories: Samsung touch wiz only or aosp only. Sounds like you need to do a bit of reading. Take the time to read about kernels before flashing, as flashing the wrong one will brick your device.
Edit: jd beat me to the submit button.

+1. People may chirp you sometimes, but u should still ask questions if things are unclear after reading.

[Q] [opinion] the most feature filled rom with best battery life??

there are hundreds of feature filled rom present for nexus 5.. so what according to you is the best rom and why..
this will help any new owner and flasholic like me to decide which rom to flash first :angel:

Nice try, but this is qualifies as a best rom thread. You're going to have to try some and see what fits your needs.

You're not a flashaholic. If you were, you'd flash them all and see for yourself, which is actually inline with the XDA rules

I'd go for the ios5 rom

You want to port the stock ROM, CM, AOSP and MIUI to the Nexus 5 even though it already has it?
No idea what you're asking.

MIUI v6 is still in its infancy stages and is still being worked on. When its ready, it'll be available.
As what others have said, we have a difficult time understanding what you want. Usually on XDA, you can't request someone to port a particular ROM, especially when those ROMs are already existent on the N5.

What I'm really asking for is a up to update porting guide all of the ones here are out dated.
If you know of one that is up to update let know were it is.

They're not outdated though? Cm nightlies are being released every night. A port is when one particular subject doesn't exist but exists for another device (or whatever it may be) to have it for your device.
A port isn't needed because it exists already.
Cm nightlies are released every night.
No one uses a bare bone aosp build. All roms use aosp as a base regardless.
Miui is relatively new and is still in beta.

I think he's trying to say that he found a rom that he likes that is being built for a different device. He needs a guide to help him take that rom and port it to the nexus 5 so he can use it.
His example is MIUIv6, it's not developed specifically for this device so he'd like to try to port it using an updated 'How-to' porting guide.

What's the best ROM/build for the P3100?

The factory one?
But, seriously, take the time and try them out for yourself instead of posting silly questions. Make up your own mind on which is best.

This one is freshly updated is made by the best dev I know https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=50766&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC
Or this one https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24694152805483043
Both are smooth and faster than any rom even faster and far better than the stock.
