New to G2X

I had a hd2 and loved it but had to switch to G2X. I have been looking to root and maybe a cool rom. What is lastest and best ones out? Any help would be great cause I can't find it.
Duck for cover
You are about to get a load of disapproval dumped on you but I will answer your question anyway. You should have posted this question in the, wait, you guessed it, the G2X Q&A forum. Now to answer your question, it depends on what your priorities are. I had an HD2 running Typhoon's CM 7.2 based ROM. If retaining nearly 100% of the phone's original functionality and stability while adding a nice collection of CM based goodies, I would recommend HellFire Phoenix 2.3. It is based on CM 7.2 and has nearly all the Driver, Kernal and OS bugs ironed out. On the other hand, if missing out on all the benefits of ICS is too much to live without, I tried HellFire Sandwich, Eagle's Blood, Domination and Genesis but found AOKP to be the best option. Nevertheless, after about four months of being fully committed to riding the ICS train until they worked out all the problems from not having open source drivers or ICS kernel code I decided to go back to HellFire Phoenix for a change of pace. What an eye opener. My passion for pursuing all the benefits of ICS had blinded me to how much in the way of stability, battery life and buggy core functionality I had given up. Needless to say it has been about eight months and I swore I wouldn't go back to an ICS build until the drivers and kernel were released for ICS from LG. The great news is the sister phone called the LG 2X just got it's ICS drivers and kernal source release a week ago and the CM team has already started releasing early nightlies of CM10 for the 2X. Our G2X has essentially the exact same hardware so we are expecting or at least hoping for CM support in the next couple weeks. If you don't run over 100 apps like I do, don't mind having crippled video recording and a few annoying crash inducing bugs and want ICS now, try the latest AOKP build. What I think will make you happier is to run HellFire Phoenix until some reasonably stable CM10 builds for the G2X come out and then jump on those. Eventually, developers will KANG the stable CM10 build and then it is up to you were to go from there. Good luck.
Wow thank you so much!! That was very nice of you. Sent you a pm also...thanks again!
OH GOD

Take your pick but out of the vast number of roms we have the pleasure of using ive liked these the best and depending what you want they are in order of stability. Of course this is all dependant on your Baseband and kernel preference. Have fun
All the info you need to prepare your phone for custom ROM's is available in the sticky thread at the top of the G2X development forum. I strongly urge you not to take the shortcut of flashing Clockwork Mod from ROM Manager. That is a fake flash that is temporary and if you ever run into a boot loop you will have to jump through many hoops and wipe your device to recover. Do a full NV flash of Clockwork Mod. Good luck. For the record, I'm far from an expert. At most I'm an experienced consumer of the wonderful work of the XDA geniuses. They never cease to amaze me.
I forgot to mention Weapon 3.1 ROM in my original post. Unlike all the other ROM's which a were based on a Cyanogen, it is built on top of the stock ROM. I loved it for a long time but it had a problem with spontaneous reboots. Also, it hasn't been updated in over a year. It is a solid ROM and has the extra bonus of including the nice LG camera software but in the end I moved on to Cyanogen based ROMs.

Well for roms if you want something really stable get CM7 pretty much the best one out there, if you want some ICS go for paranoid android that's what I've been using for a while now I haven't had that many problems, but yeah for paranoid android build 12 is the newest one and for CM7 go on the cyanogenmod website for it. Also welcome to the g2x forums xD

[Q] PA 2.54 / kernel / best battery life

Just curious if anyone would have some insight on which kernel I should pair up with PA 2.54 (hopefully 3.5 + halo gets ported soon ).
I'm probably going to flash rohan.kernel.b7 but I know that aznrice2k4 gets amazing battery life out of his kernel 143 (how about batt life on 150?) on Xylon. Also, it was noted in the Xylon thread that the kernel works on a couple other aosp roms so I would assume it will work with PA.
Thanks in advance!
Test and measure results yourself. All phones and preferences are not created equally.

Yeah I know I know... This post is irrelevant anywho, PA would just bootloop haha (s-off, wiped etc. I did it right ). On to the next one!
Thanks though!
IIRC, you would have to use b5 or b6 because of some changes made to cm in november. I don't blame ya, I loved PA.

Yeah hopefully 3+ gets ported soon halo is shweet. My gf wanted a new phone and I told her to get the Nexus 4. Why? Why? I just torture myself everytime I look at all the ports / roms / HALO etc. that they have for it. Not knocking our devs just jealous of the N4

Paranoid Android 3.99

I am currently running PA 3.99 on my HTC One and when I asked in the PA google hangouts I get lol's really. If you have a rom on your device and it works good and all the features you want why change. I since bricked my HTC One and bought a nexus 5 and love it. My question is was there a Paranoid Android 3.99 or the latest that still had the hybrid and pie mode? Any help would be great I have been looking till my eyes bleed so I had searched.
Dude, pie is already included.
Hybrid is still a work in progress to get the new version done. The only other thing missing from the current version is halo which is being reborn as something else.
You will not find a 3.99 for the n5 because 3.99 was android 4.3. This phone never had 4.3.
You say you searched but the change log thread literally covers every feature available in the current version. The change log thread link is the first thing on the ROM thread.

That help a lot looking for something that never was I had it on my nexus 4 as well but no longer have the phone. I thought with the nexus 5 I would have had a lot more rom's with these features already. I guess kitkat makes it more of a challenge. Thanks for the reply.

If your OPO is new i wont recommend you doing anything for atleast 2 weeks!
Till that time Alpha builts will progress to beta builds hopefully
use CM11s Its actually quite awesome!
Play with camera you'll love it...
CM12 has bad camera for now! :{
There is no best stable lollipop rom, they all build from the same source and is more or less identical with very minor insignificant changes.
I personally like the latest liquidsmooth 4.0 build.

Best stable Lollipop Alfa for One+ One is for me the Temasek-Build.
There's no such thing as a best ROM anyway. You'll get a million different people with a million different opinions, which makes asking this question completely pointless because you're left having to flash and find out, which is what you should be doing in the first place.

[OPO] Paranoid Android vs CM13 nightly ! Which one would you prefer and why?

Now that Paranoid Android. 2016 has been released yesterday for OPO, would you make the switch to Paranoid Android? and why?
To help flasholics make informed choices
Paranoid Android just for the different experience than the stock roms. CM is almost stock. After using for sometime battery charging is slow. TOugh call to make with Dirty Unicorns or Darkobas roms. with PA.
I vote for different experience hence PA.
I vote for CM. Its got a blotch of features and no...those nose breakdowns didnt happen to me.. PA's accountability in this period is very bad. They left us and now when android N is almost out, they turn their nose into first PA MM build. kinda late to win win i would say,. but i have to agree they are very stable interms of battery.. if only they stick to custom roms, i would have been on PA.
I would go for CM13 (Sultan) over Paranoid Android. I've been on CM Nightlies for ages and Sultan's ROM is CM with better camera, kernel and based on a more stable branch from CM. Paranoid is just coming back after a long hiatus and it won't have any of the features you've come to enjoy on a daily basis on other custom software.
A lot of people have commented PA has charging issues. I assume that's cause they used the Oxygen kernel. I also had issues on latest Oxygen OS with charging (took like 4+ hrs to charge), it can't be a coincidence. If PA are still dishing out builds, check them out in a couple months when the OS has matured (with more features)
What about the just launched Cyanogen 13.1 into the mix? Would anyone be considering switching to that?
The charging issue on PA is keeping me from trying it, although my battery life on the official CM13 nightlies hasn't been fantastic

I did just that, I've switched over from the nightlies. So far almost everything is just like CyanogenMod, but kind of worse in a way, and the only reason I'm saying that is because I have a very specific setup and like having Google versions of the apps, which aren't all included in COS. The features from the newest update are rather useless to me at this point in time, it might be a different story if something more interesting gets released though. Other than that it's smooth and fast and due to the lack of root I can finally try out android pay. I'm thinking that if I have no reason to stay on it I will switch back to CM nightlies, or maybe try out Paranoid android when some of the issues (such as the theme engine) get fixed.
I would Prefer COS 13.1. I really found the MODs (Skype and hyperlape) useful for myself. Except for these mods everything is more or less like CM 13 except the camera here is better. I tried PA for a day. It had Slow charging, no extra feature over CM 13. Infact lacks a great deal of features when compared to CM or COS 13.
