Hi, I've got a D850 running stock D85010d (I've never had the OTA prompt to update to 10f despite checking nearly everyday, possibly something to do with me living in the UK with a US phone?) rooted and backed up with twrp. What I want to know is what are the main differences between the unofficial and official CM12 nightly builds and CM11 for example I can only find CM11 ROMs for the D850 I was under the impression that CM11 was Kitkat and CM12 was Lollipop is that right?
Which ROM would be best to use as a lollipop daily driver? Is there a stable lollipop ROM for D850 yet? Or should I continue to wait god knows how long for AT&T to push their lollipop out? (lol sounds rude!) Its not fair that most D855 peeps already have lollipop :crying:

Care to nominate a ROM for someone who's got a D850 but wants to keep as close to stock as possible, so no dodgy custom loading screens, sounds, skins etc I just want to have a stable lollipop ROM for the D850 that doesn't have a load of AT&T crap installed with it. Out of the official ROMs which is the best to go for? ParanoidAndroid or CM12? Also what is meant by Nightlies anyway? Looking at the links its how often there is a new updated ROM available? Another dumb question, will I have to update by Kernal to use Kitkat or should I leave that alone?

Hi there
I will shortly be joining either the custom rom user world or bricked phone world. :silly:
I am absolutely new to the topic and would love some advice from you all.
My phone is stock ICS and I want to switch to a ROM which is very stable and fast.
Earlier i was thinking of going for PA or Cyanogen but neither seem to officially support Motorola Atrix 2. :crying:
MoKee is the only distribution which apparently has official support for my phone.
I was wondering if there is any other ROM which officially supports Atrix 2?
How good is MoKee? Would you recommend this ROM to a newbie? From what i know, Cyanogen seems to be the easiest to install.
Also, can someone list the steps to installing Mokee?
I read the content at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2305303
but for a 1st time newb all that seems very intimidating.
thank you

All of new ROM's for our Atrix2 are fast and most of them are stable (depends on user )
& Even though CM 11 is not official for our phone, but currently it is the most stable and all bug fixed rom for our A2
(I am not saying Mokee or other ROMs are not stable, but at this stage CM 11 has all bug fixed and I am sure Mokee & other will incorporate it soon :fingers-crossed: )
Also all ROM's have same procedure to install, so all ROM's are easy to install (Thanks to BMM)
You can follow steps in that link or check this video tutorial for using BMM
"Axxiom Kat" also has official support to our device.
It doesn't matters (at least for this device) whether the ROM has official support or not, our device has a team of some Recognized Contributors and A2EPT (Atrix 2 edison porting team) which keep the ROM up to date as like it is an official ROM :victory:
So dont worry flash any ROM you want :highfive:

Thanks Sameer!
Guess CM11 is the best bet for me.
Btw, what is the kernel update?
Would you recommend me to go for a custom kernel now? or is it something i should attempt only when i have the hang of modding?

All rom's have inbuilt custom kernel (kexec kernel), if you wanna try overclocking your device you can use JBX kernel
JBX can be flashed after ROM installtion.
But for a newbie like you dont flash it yet, first try some ROM's; when you get used to it then try JBX.
And if this helps you, dont say thanks press Thanks button below the post !!
And we have separate Q&A section for question and answers
Please dont post questions here in general section
MoKee is bug free and gps works berry good
Mokee is stable and you can try SlimKat as well
Slimkat worked best for me as far as battery life, but cm11 was best overall
atrix 2 cm11
I just wanted to try the lollipop experience and i dont know which rom is better. Im between the anerik ROM (maybe with pink kernel or donkey kang) and experience 9.0.2
Have you tried anyone?? What about performance and battery life? Any fc? Random reboot?? I would like to flash any but I don't know which one. Dt2w is also important for me.
Anyone who could help me thanks a lott
I own moto g xt1033 dual sim phone currently running crDroid rom latest kitkat version. As per my experience, the custom version of lollypop android for our phone is just under development with few or many bugs yet to be fixed. I don't know cause I haven't tried any till date but there are many custom roms based on cm12 in the development thread, however, with some bugs on them. If you've tried xperience.cyanogen rom, 4.4 version then you'll know that they have the best audio quality and battery backup plus high performance. According to their last update in their Facebook page, they are developing cm12 for moto g. So, I'm waiting for their release.
Wait... the actuals roms of lollipop are buggy. Stay on 4.4.4 and be happy!

Do you know if there's a chance to see a rom like cyanogen , AOKP or slimkat for this E8 ? Even an unofficial port eventually .
It seems that developers are ignoring this device.....
P.s. Another question: actually and officially what is the last release of android for that phone? 4.4.4? And have the eye experience like m8 or not for now?

Let me just say that you haven't asked anything new here.
Development is slow for this device, period.
4.4.4 for e8 hasn't been here in india yet but i think it is available for other variants like m8sw(e8 china-unicom) and other single sim variants.
Read THIS thread for more info which you should have done before opening the thread.
Im kind of new here, so hi Im looking for a good custom rom to flash on my GTab 2 P3110.
Im planning to use it on my car (already got a mount for it), so I need the rom to have a working gps and have compatibility with Here Maps.
Also, it would be good if it was the latest version (Lollipop), but it can be KitKat for the sake of stability and compatibility!
I had a Nexus 7 with AutoDroid installed, but my small cousin managed to crack the screen
So yeah, that's about it. Hope you guys can help me!

Look in the Development thread for 7" tab 2. Either I've tried SlimLP and CM12.1 on my tablet as far as Lollipop goes. If you want a KitKat ROM, SlimKat is a good choice. Be sure to click thanks on @Android-Andi in the ROM thread if you choose one of those. (Always click thanks on the ROM developers OP in the ROM thread)

I've tried both Lollipop ROMs. SlimLP causes Here to crash rly often (an user also reported that on the thread). So far, CM 12.1 is being stable as I needed. Thanked Andi already, he's an incredible guy! Also, thx for the suggestion, my friend

No problem! I am also running CM12.1 at the moment. Make sure you edit the thread title and add "[SOLVED]" to the beginning of it before "[Q]".
Have a great weekend!
Dear All.
I have my GT-S6312 rooted and with CWM installed.

Lollipop is not yet available for this device. You can download CM11 in the CM11 development thread.

Thanks for the answer.
I believe CM11 is Kitkat, right? Sorry but I'm new to this smartphone mods. Is CM11 fully working?
I also saw some procedures to update GT-S5360 to Lollipop, that's why I asked, as I thought maybe this was compatible...
And about custom roms, what other options do I have? I see so many discussions I got a bit confused.
Thanks for your help.
