Hi,
in my Galaxy 3, I have updated software to AOKP build 2 (4.0.3), but I noticed a huge consumption of the battery. Not yet tested this phone in the other versions of Android, so I'd like to know if such a large consumption of the battery, it may be the fault of Android 4.x.x?
If I update my software to Andorid 2.3.7 or 2.2, the battery should work longer? However, I would stick with 4.xx, because the most I like this version.
PS: Is it true that to be released tomorrow AOKP build 3 (4.0.4)?

Oh men! You are my guru! I tested several versions, based on the CM7, but each time, after a few hours, I was updating a different ROM.
I also tested three versions, based on 4.x.x (two, based on CM9), but they were too many unnecessary applications.
Finally, I updated your ROM, it is brilliant! Zero garbage! The only thing that worries me is battery life . It even take pictures, unlike other editions 4.x.x.
I look forward to build 3 (based on Android 4.0.4?).
Regards!

Camera doesn't work in build 3 anymore , it looks like it doesnt work on every 4.0.4 rom, but it does on every 4.0.3.
But whatever, build 3 is released!
According to numbers, Android 4.0 should be better with dealing memory and battery. But because it has many bugs, it still has the memory problems. I think Froyo is the best with battery but for memory, CM7 is a beast!!!
So i've been doing some research about cyanogen mod 9 for my HTC desire and have read all the people's comments about how good it is but an still not convinced. I mean that i've heared that cyanogenmod 9 does not make your camera work. Thats a major set back isn't it? Also there are some other serious probs e.g WiFi, Google play apps e.t.c. So is cyanogenmod 9 worth all these troubles? Whats the up side?
The main benefit, is it gives people like me who own devices (samsung infuse) that dont get official ICS updates. It runs great on my device, and i prefer it to any other rom ive tried, but i use my sixaxis controller with my phone, and due to bluetooth not working im using CM7 til that issue is resolved. but in all honesty CM9 is the best custom Rom available for my device at least it you dont need bluetooth. it runs great and my battery life is great.
what about andriod apps. do apps run on such a firmware.
(espicially games)??
They certainly do! It's just like a normal ICS device - there's the Play Market and you can install any app suited for ICS
BTW, CM9 rocks, AOKP even more!
I Cyanogen 9 with my HTC ONE X. I also have problems with the Bluetooth works partially. After each ROM is different. Much like me, flash your phone to find THE right ROM.
Cyanogenmod 9 is brilliant if it's stable build. From your description they're still working on it,so I'd urge you be patient and try cyanogenmod 7 instead.
Or,check out MIUI4 rom if you're still interested in ICS
Sent from my U8150 using XDA
The matureness of CM9 depends also on the device you own, and the available or unavailable drivers - in your case it seems there are problems with the cam.
I suggest to get CM7.2 instead, till those problems are fixed on your device.
CM9 will always run as It provides you the best latest features from google.
Only "problem" I've experienced on CM9 on my Epic 4g is that Dead Space is no longer recognized as an authorized device. Other than that, I enjoy using it over GB. It feels like the interface makes "more sense," but of course that's just a personal preference.
I not a huge fan of CM9 ...as i ahev flashed in S2 couple of times ...but still the force close issue persist with the nightly builds(ICS)...!!
I can't wait for a stable build for the GS3! (yet I have to )

cm9
Using experimental cm9 build on Atrix. It's worth it, but it comes with sacrifices.
My phone is much much faster, smoother, and prettier. But at the cost of stability with the camcorder, and some obscure cm7 features.
Hi, Im looking for a ROM that is mainly focused on smoothness. Especially the drawer, (lagging when swiping between pages). I currently use CM10.1 and it offers the smoothest experience, but when using the notification bar and quick settings there is definitely a noticeable lag on every ROM I have used. (EOS, KillRom)
Thanks!
Stock has been the smoothest for me
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997434&page=93
good rom
+1
The stock rom was the one which has been mostly lag free. But as far as Android 4.2 roms are still in beta stadium I think that this will being fixed on the road to a stable one.
Or is there anyone without lags on 4.2?
I don't know. I've been quite happy with both CM10.1 (my current one) and MyAndroid 4.2.2 (dreamwcli ROM), I just changed to CM10.1 because I wanted to try a new ROM and wanted to use 3g again (my one is MZ601). I changed the launcher to "NOVA Launcher" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDMsImNvbS50ZXNsYWNvaWxzdy5sYXVuY2hlciJd) and put only one homescreen with only a few widgets. That made my device quite fast

Yea I know... I was using WiFi only ROMs because of battery life, but now I needed 3G (classes are back ), and I wanted to try a new ROM. Anyway Congrats on your ROM! I used it for more than one month (I'm a flashing addict, when a new ROM releases I use it, but I didn't feel the need for yours )!

I tried My android a few minutes ago and must admit that it is really (butter ) smooth unlike team eos 4 #144.
But I miss the mostly framework related things I can customise using the eos control center app. Especially the option to choose long press actions for the navigation bar buttons, customisable quick settings buttons and the delay for wifi off after screen off.
Does anyone know a workaround for this?
Still find that 4.1.2 roms of CM are the smoothest out there. Found the latest CM 10.1 and My Android to be comparatively laggy.

The smoothest ROM ever for the Xoom is BAKED build 5 (Android 4.1.2).
I have tried all 4.1 ROM and this was the best.
I also tried some 4.2 ROM (including the latest BAKED build) but they aren't as smooth as 4.1
I'd say it depends on your CPU settings, each ROM needs different schedulers and governor to run smooth...for me EOS4 goes great
I am happy with the latest EOS4 nightly build (umts_everest) and CrossBreeder ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2113150 )

I am on it too. Team EOS 3 stable and jb 4.1.1 nearly to latest 4.2, there is no manything to complaint about the steady and smooth, wifi, 3g (my Xoom MZ 601) connect fast and no signal drop so far lag likely zero, there is no big bug insist involved too. I really love team eos because of mention heating fix new issues from end users and go on the new version road android when it office notification from G. They hard working to release new build average on every week I calculated which most better than the older once. I intend indeed want to try EOS 4 with nightlies on 4.2 build. I find out many news on 4.2 but lazy to backup data right now,

Ok EOS 3.0 were certainly the smoothest roms but I'm fine with EOS 4.0.
I've made a downgrade to Stock rom but I went back to EOS a few days after. :highfive:

Best ROM is selective there really isn't too many builds to flash and see for one self.
It'll also depend on kernel set up and user program installs.
Thread closed.
sup guys! I was out of this dev section from a while (got a one x and now a one, HTC FTW) and now my GF got a sensation...
I need a suggestion for a stable bugless rom with sweep2wake and toggles...the fastest you have...or she will leave me, because of the bugs I put in her phone..."you ruined my phone! I want my galaxy w back!! this phone has bugs!!!!" and throws things...
I was looking for albino's cm10.1 (since 10.2 is not so smooth and drains too much battery and cm11 is too buggy now), is there any other ROM I should look for?
hope I made you laugh with this post lol, I was joking about the leaving thing, but she's really pissed off because of my modding addiction...XD and I really need help, I don't know how roms are.
thank you all guys

Sense 3.6 is the last one that looks like a real Sense, everything later lost it's point.
Outdated-maybe, best working-definitely. You said you need something bugless. If you want something newer go with MIUI, it's 4.2.2, you have patched sultan kernel with ION for it (and it also works perfectly with the stock kernel).
I would go for Viper 3.1.4 cos it have full tweaks.

After using CM for a long time I got tired of the battery barely holding a day and decided to go back to the legendary ARHD and it's still the best rom for this phone in my opinion! If you're looking for stability, performance and good battery life, ARHD is definitely the way to go.
I don't really care about the Sense version. I use Apex Launcher and it pretty much looks almost the same like the CM roms I used except for the way the notification bar looks like which is fine with me.
In addition to flashing the rom I also flashed the Battery Percentage Fix / No Recent Apps / Extended Quick Settings, one of the Battery Percentage Mods, the Advanced Power Menu and the HQ Camera which takes much better pics than CM does by the way.
All current apps are working great and I'm glad I'm back using this rom. There's definitely no need to have the latest and newest software on your phone.

I'm actually not sure. If the camera app buttons are green when pressed than it's not. If they're blue than it is the HQ camera.

On my sensation I'm happy with [ROM][Android 4.4.2][Camera works] CM11 with ION [...]
If you prefer JB [ROM][Android 4.3.1][Camera works] CM10.2 with ION [...]
Cm 10 is really stable
ViperS 3.1.4: very good Sense JB ROM with tweaks and so on. I got only a little bug with headphones. If you use headphones without mic, and so need to talk into the phone's mic, then sometimes you are not able to send your speech...you receive very well, but you're not able to talk.(Before someone asks, I use very high quality headphones but unfortunately they are without mic. Listening a lot of music by my mobile during the day, this to talk into the phone's mic is the only way to continue my habits.)
Elegancia: very good Sense ICS ROM with some tweaks (less than ViperS). No bugs found by me, good battery life, but glitches with Maps 7.0, due to hacks in adreno libs. You must downgrade app to Maps 6 (anyway, link is provided in the thread).
CM 10.1 & 10.2 (albinoman, a1-7, etc.): no-Sense ROM, good performance, a lot of available modifications and personalizations, but camera quality is not as Sense ROM, no way to obtain same quality. In some cases, camera app FC, and that's could be a very annoying thing when you want to capture that exact moment!
Actually I use ViperS 5, a Sense 5 JB ROM. No bugs (neither the one with the headphones), good quality pictures, no tweaks (at least, for the moment). IMHO Sense 5 is not so great because of a sort of "relaxing" in design (someone likes that, mine is only an opinion), but this ROM is the one able to give me what I desire at the moment, even if not at all. I'm waiting for a stable CM11 (albinoman's, dominos', a1-7's, no matter whose) with a no bug camera: I tried some version: speed is terrific (it seems like to have a brand 2014 new phone in your hand), and available tweaks/personalizations will be enough to let me forgive the bad quality of the camera.
Everything I wrote, obviously, is from my experience, so someone could be not agree with me.
Which cm11 to choose
Hi - Which CM11 version do you recommend guys? I saw that there are two which are frequently updated:
- [ROM] CyanogenMod 11.0 | Android 4.4.2 KitKat [KANG] [Jan-15]
- [ROM][Android 4.4.2][Camera works] CM11 with ION [Jan 9, 2014]
I am going to install it to one of my friends phone who is not going to tinker it so I would like to install the better one. Currently he has cm10.1 on it from albinoman, which runs fast but it frequently has bugs during calls so that one needs to be replaced by a better room.

IMHO don't install CM11 ROMs, then... They are not completely stable (camera doesn't work properly, and there are some bugs to be fixed).
Try a CM10.2 from albinoman or from a1-7 (sense-less), or a ViperS5 (Sense 5). No or few bugs at all, stability and speed... CM11 has to be improved a little to be considered a good daily driver.
Thanks for the tip. I will go for cm10.2 then. Android1-7's rom seems to be updated more frequtently so I chose that one.

As I always say when I address these kind of threads, your best option is always to test the ROMs for yourself and decide based on your findings.
This is always the most ideal option because only you will know what you truly want out of a ROM and everyone is simply giving opinions, which honestly have no impact on what you choose anyway.
What's ideal for you may be complete rubbish for someone else + there could be an amazing ROM which you miss out on due to the fact that no one suggested it.
As these threads generally lead to fanboy arguments, however, these kind of threads are against the rules.
Therefore, Thread Closed.

Hello,
I am not sure what i should choose... i like a stable ROM and good camera quality but i like also stock android and latest Android version! how is the difference between the camera on CM/MIUI?
now i am running SMIUI (5.1.1 ) with NOVA launcher to get a taste of stock android
Thanks for your replys and help!
yeah we need AOSP room for Mi4C ...
I like MIUI ( haven't tried sMIUI yet ) but I absolutely hate all the apps that come with it., especialy those chineese i don't even understand ... oh and app market ... how do i get rid of that, PLEASE !!! ?

yeah, that was going to be my next venture ... I am just waiting for the unlock code from Xiaomi if it will arrive in the next days, otherwise i will go with the guide to do it without the code .
At the moment I stick with smiui(6..) with root, xposed, viper4android...
It is great.
But I'm waiting for an official release of cm, aosp...
CM 13 doesn't run like I'm used to and the lack of custom kernels is pretty bad.
At the moment I don't have a big reason to stick with stock android.
On my s4 I only used GPE of android.
So I'm used to a 100 % customized system.
But for now I have to stick with smiui.
Because it works the best.
(only with xposed )
Camera quality miui>aosp/cm
It crashed a lot and it was a bad experience for me.
CM13 in Mi4c bad? How can you say that?
My experience with CM13 Team Superluminal has been awesome! some keys points for you.
-Batery life is a lot better (Screen time is almost the same but standby time in CM13 is ULTRA OPTIMIZED only 1 percent in all night)
-Camera is good (Not at level of MIUI)
-No crashes since last build (1 week now)
-Google apps working
-Now CM13 TS is stable, you get updates from OTA.
-Now, not coming back to MIUI.

He is probably using CM13 ported by other members. I'm using TS CM13 and it's amazing. I think the camera image quality on TS CM13 is as good as MiUI, even though the UI is not as convenient. No crashing of the camera app.
Maybe the new version is better. i used mc 13 from ts.
i tested it 1 or 2 months ago and i got some bad problems.
i dont say it is bad but for me it was'nt stable enough to switch.
but im still waiting for an official release.
just try it out and see how it works for you
TSL's CM13 is great! You can try also Ketut Kumajaya's almost-AOSP CM13 Nexus-fy
I'm also using TS CM13 and i have to say after the release of source code, stable cm13 and firmware update from Xiaomi i'm having a really good experience with my phone. it runs great, and i also used xiaomi.eu builds and loved it, but i could not get over the little things/overal look and feel (and behavior) of the os. To be fair, i always preferred cm, more than stock, for it's simplicity and customization options.

no problem, to be clear, i'm using 0423 build, flashed fw update from miui stable, but not the gpu blobs as described on their website:
Based on stable/cm-13.0-ZNH2K branch.
Proprietary blobs are from miui stable V7.2.4.0 version. http://www.teamsuperluminal.org/download/ts_libra_miui_v7240_fw_patch-zip)
Imho when using a new rom, give it 2-3 days to settle in in terms of battery performance.
