I just got a Nexus 5. I made a mistake and traded a LG G2 for a Windows Phone (that entire OS is garbage) and then got a S3. And finally had enough money to get a real phone. So anyway I want a better ROM for it. But I could not find a very specific feature I want. I am looking for a 5.0.x ROM that I can change the signal to Dbm instead of bars. AOKP can do it but there is not AOKP 5.0.x ROM's available. Thank you in advance.
i believe gravitybox for lollipop does, you can use the framework over a stock rooted rom.

is there a rom that takes every option or customization from every other rom, and mixes it into one grand stock feel rom, that happens to have endless options and choices?

lol didnt expect to be rick rolled in 2014. i have a nexus 5 running android 5.0 lollipop cataclysm rom. im not downgrading for anything, i basically just wanted to know what rom would offer that, so i could look out for it whenever it would be released for 5.0

Nexus 5 roms can be found here
I don't think you'll find a rom that includes "all possible options" but im sure you'll find one that fit your needs. In addition you can use the Xposed framework to add some options.

Hi, here on xda we dont compare roms, sorry. its just taboo of the worst kind. Also please post questions in the question and answers portion of the forum, thanks and cheers.
I'll go ahead and reply with respect to the split between KitKat and Lollipop. You'll note a bunch of Lollipop-based ROMs appearing. Some have chosen to flash those, to be on the cutting edge. However, the Xposed Framework - one of the most useful customization tooks in the Android world - has not been updated to work with the "ART" (Android Run Time) and instead is only still compatible with Dalvik-based system. The developer of Xposed has indicated that he may work on updating XPosed at some point, but there is no firm commitment or timeline.
I personally will not be upgrading to Lollipop as I find that the tweaks made available by the Xposed Framework and the plethora of modules built for it, are simply too important me to lose by upgrading to what isn't all that radically different of an Android update.
But to each his own. Thought I'd give you a bit of the background.
P.S. Anything by Santod is quality work (NuSenseSix, UnSenseSix, etc). He really knows Android.
Nothing beats stock as far as stability. For newest, well, the newest official software is stock as well until VZW releases Lollipop.
Sacred cows make extra tasty steaks. That said, I'll make recommendations. I think Fluent is as reliable as the stock 4.4.4 and more so than some of the more radically tweaked 4.4.4 ROMs out there built from non-Verizon sources. NuSense is solid as well, but hasn't been updated in a while, is minimally modified, and is based on the oldest of the lollipop releases. if 4.4.4 is all you want, Clean ROM 3.0 was a solid runner for me.
If you can do your own mods then I would go with Lollipop as you don't need xposed if your looking for stable stick to 4.4.4 for now.. Make sure you upgrade your firmware before if you haven't as you r still on 4.4.2 ROM I'm taking a guess your haven't updated firmware.

What do you mean by doing your own mods? Short of coding them, I'm not sure how one would go about getting Samsung Milk to work, or cleaning up the Notification menu, or a bunch of other things that just aren't commonly built into customized ROMs. If you do know of a way to get such things working in Lollipop, do let me know - I'd then be able to make the switch!

I was just saying if you know how to decompile apks an make code changes an recompile your make your own mods.
Yo.
Still rockin' the xperia (come from OPO and Nexus 5) and wondering if there are any good roms still. All lists are 2013 horrid kitkat (only think i like from kitkat is the notification bar). Preferably a Marshmallow rom, but lollipop will do. The only marshmallow rom i can find is AOSP, but can i use this as my daily driver without having to code for days? Got cm12.1 at the moment, horrible, loads of bugs, and the nightlies dont fix them. thanks guys.
(p.s looked for threads before starting a new one but they're all too old)
Hey, I've just found this device (the LTE variant) under ton of dust in the wardrobe and would like to revive it as my back-up phone. What custom ROM would you recommend for this unit? Does installing nougat make sense, or is 1 GB or ram too little? What would be, in your opinion, the most stable rom that is not touchwiz based? Thank you in advance for all the replies, I've never owned this phone, so I have no idea
In my case, I have nougat (with lineageos 14.1) and it works just perfect for me. I reccomend you to try, if you finally don't like the ROM you can always change, for example, to an Android 5.1 based ROM.
I am looking for a 7. x ROM where Bluetooth Phone Audio and WIFI work correctly. I have already tested many Customs. Nexus, LineageOS, Ressurection etc. etc.
Make it yourself if you cant wait for them to fix it
also I'm using a nexus based oreo rom and all of those things work for me
also im guessin you want a AOSP based nougat rom not Touchwiz?
DrKetan_custom_ROM works fine. Its a note 5 ROM ported to s6. I have not had any real issues with it. However I just upgraded to NexusOS-8.1.0-zerofltexx-20180113 and I have had no issues on Oreo that I could not get around. But keep in mind I am a computer programming student. So if I have an issue with root or init.d or permissions I simply fix the issue and move on.
