Thanks to pa 3.99 freezing at bootlogo after a battery drain, im now on pa 4.6-BETA1 with texdroider at 268. The little i have used it it seems fine. I like the hover compared to halo. Pie seems to be missing some options compared to 3.99.

Nothing like being stuck at boot to quicly flash something new.

[Nexus 4 General] mammenj:
Was on Mahdi, switched to Vanir and it's performance is superior without any modified kernel
[Nexus 4 General] molesarecoming:
20.000 is fairly basic. most roms will give you 22.000 without overclocking the kernel. tell your dev he's missing some bionic features he's def not up to date. krait alone will give you 21.500 ondemand, wifi on, and no oc. there were some recent patches that pushed it still a bit higher.

I'm running stock rooted. I'm thinking about trying PA with Francos. Does francos really improve battery life?
[Nexus 4 General] bongostl:
Carbon + Franco.

I'm amazed how many people are using. Pa.

All because of the tablet mode? I don't get the appeal
[Nexus 4 General] nikzDHD:
There's more to it, pie, per app dpi, per app colour, etc etc. User preferences. I switch between PA and other roms, things like AOKP and such offer many more customisable options than PA does.
[Nexus 4 General] mrrtys:
Another PA user here... Since 4.2 they were one of the first to come with a 4.2 rom and they changed everything for me.

No more dpi changing and compatibility problems just their lovely hybrid system.

And later I started to like the color customization and pie I use sometimes it's kinda handy when I travel and use one hand.
[Nexus 4 General] Travelawyer:
Stock with root, so I can run Titanium and make Nandroid backups.

I have been messing with custom roms on my Desire HD for the last half year now and I am happy staying with stock now. I miss the extended reboot menu and the circle battery icon of CM though.

[Nexus 4 General] pandeus:
running liquidsmooth r2. i flashed through about 10 or so roms before i found ls. I personally hate PA, cant stand "tablet mode," i prefer menus hidden behind buttons, and the overall battery life of ls with francos r100 kernel is just about phenomenal, also ls has all the features i wanted without any extra garbage stacked in, which is what most roms are offering. Feels like to me all the addition is just a "whose e-peen is bigger" contest kind of thing. my 2 cents.

[Nexus 4 General] frescoraja:
Sounds a wee bit defensive (pun intended), did someone make fun of your e-peen?

My e-peen is just ravaging through the e-vajajay on PA3.1. The creator has created a brand of android that is undeniably appealing and functional. I never thought I would use hybrid mode or per app color until I tried it, and the pie controller is almost completely seamless. I am confident that it will match or surpass stock android usability soon and at least until key lime pie comes out.

How is sykops L preview? I want to try something new, I'm a "Flashaholic" and barely any ROMs are getting frequent updates that aren't Nightly based.

I'm just struggling to find anything that is different. Most ROMs are basically the same but with a different brand label.

I'd try more ROMs out but if it doesn't have Theme Engine I usually can't be bothered. I got fed up of looking at the dull colours a long time ago.

Maybe there are some cool ROMs not on XDA that people are aware of?

[Nexus 4 General] jokermithun:
What is D meaning of M10???? and kindly tell which kernel ur using wid this rom???:confused:

whih gapps we can flash with this rom??? i hv minimal gapps from Rastakat
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
Milestone 10. CM has nightly builds, which can have bugs or instabilities. Milestone builds are the stable releases that introduce new features.
[Nexus 4 General] Horizone:
By M10 I mean cyanogenmod snapshot 10 (M10) you can easily find it on their website :) I used sabermod franco kernel (cm) with the rom. For gapps I recommend the gapps from cyanogenmod as that way you get to keep cyanogenmods trebuchet launcher.
[Nexus 4 General] nixie2121:
Can you post a link to the rom you are using? I see a few of the CM roms and want to try the one you have.

Thanks

I'm looking for a rom with good performance and battery life, i am thinking about velocity rom and pa 4.6, which is better? I don't really care about features, just want a stable and solid rom.
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
No care for features.. cool

Velo is the thing you want.. by far the best for speed and performance.
[Nexus 4 General] HYKwan:
Lol i'm not really into customizations:highfive:

But some say velocity's battery life isn't that great, is that ture? battery life is actually one of my top priorities
[Nexus 4 General] choosetobelieve:
Two roms for you: Purity and Slim rom.
[Nexus 4 General] Aaron_Knowles:
Then you flash a custom kernel and tweak accordingly to your needs.

Hellsdoctor, AK are two of the most popular, especially when you pair them with Synapse and UKM.

[MENTION=4362467]gorilla p[/MENTION] makes profiles for them such as battery, balanced, performance which can all be found at bit.my/makostuff
[Nexus 4 General] skidaway:
Give SlimRom a try. It's rock solid has a weekly release cycle (and all the features actually work, unlike some other roms). There is really no need for a custom kernel on the N4 version, it gets good battery life, in my experience.
[Nexus 4 General] biron_w:
Currently on CyanHacker ROM. I like it.
[Nexus 4 General] wolfen69:
I'm now on Liquid Smooth. By far the best rom I've ever used. After 10 days of using it, not one single glitch or hitch. I used to judge roms by how few bugs they had and used the one with the least amount, but I have yet to find one on liquid. Liquid Smooth is an appropriate name.
[Nexus 4 General] oxxshadow:
I agree liquid smoothy is underated. I would have thought more people would be using it.
[Nexus 4 General] liang512:
I'm using liquid smooth. I was using c-rom. However it has not been updated for 3 months. Liquid smooth is fast and feature-rich. Best rom for me.
[Nexus 4 General] zielonek430:
Hi! I'm searching for a good combination rom+kernel. What I need is mainly stability, reaponsiveness and battery life, interesting features are welcome, however I hate it when some options overlap (same things in different parts of settings).

So far I have been mainly using Velocity with its stock kernel, but its battery life is rather poor. Maybe that's because of ART? Nevertheless I have to admit - it's one of the smoothest and most stabile roms I've tried on N4, though it's really lacking features.

Which combination would fit my requirements atm?
[Nexus 4 General] jokermithun:
Try Vanir ROM + Saber Mod Franco Kernel CM Or Hells Core B57 CM kernel....:thumbup:

[Nexus 4 General] cybervibin:

[Nexus 4 General] zielonek430:
Well, tbh some time ago I tried HC and it did poor, I had various issues and I'd rather avoid this one.

Maybe some other suggestions?
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
HC as in hellscore? Dude you might have done something wrong.. Hellscore b57 is rocking all over

still if you want suggestion - ak 355.
[Nexus 4 General] markrwhittle7:
I keep going between stock 4.4.4 and sykopompos' L preview. He's done an amazing job in taking a developer preview and making it daily-driver material - if you'll pardon the pun ;)
[Nexus 4 General] zielonek430:
What about battery life? Some time ago it dried the battery with some strange thing in the stats.

Going back to my question - would you rather choose stock with Xposed or go for sth like Mahdi or SlimKat (then probably without Xposed)? Which way would it work better?

And this AK - hasn't its develeper given it up already? Or is it stabile enough to use it without updates?
[Nexus 4 General] markrwhittle7:
Yes it did have problems with battery life a while back. I'm pretty sure they have been fixed as b7 is available and I think those problems were in the b6 testing version. Personally I haven't had problems with battery life in the newest release (b7).

Going back to your question about Xposed etc. my post was directed at the original question of "what rom is everyone using?"
[Nexus 4 General] zielonek430:
I guess so :) Just wanted to ask another question
[Nexus 4 General] manueltts:
Nope, ART is way more battery friendly than Dalvik. One reason -of many reasons that I ignore- is that it use less cpu frequencies and cpu time, because it has more prebuilt app info, so less work to do when using the phone.

I would prefer Slimkat (or Mahdi) with ART instead of Dalvik.

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 General] clocker-droid:
cyan hacker with hc b57 seems like a good combo for me, though hc b57 only flashed yesterday so will know better after another day or so :cool:
[Nexus 4 General] showstopper1:
For those who care for battery life and features

The best combination is

Liquid smooth on art+hellscore b47+greenify

[Nexus 4 General] choosetobelieve:
I saw the liquid smooth is same as slimrom.
[Nexus 4 General] manueltts:
It's similar in many ways, but it has (way) more features. And I would say because of that, little more chances of instability or resources wasted if you don't use those features. I'm using Liquidsmooth now and I really like it.

I tried this combination, Liquidsmooth IS REAL fast with Hellscore but the Call Recording mod works terrible with that ROM.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Instead of having a separate header,Most of the settings are in Display Settings.

Sound related features are in sound settings which makes sense,Security settings are at same place as in every other rom.

What settings you were trying to search?If you could not find any particular setting,that feature is obviously not there in SimpleAOSP
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
Sorry, I don't remember specifics. That was 3 weeks ago, I only played around with it for maybe an hour, and I was probably at least somewhat inebriated at the time.
[Nexus 4 General] chennaiahgopal:
Liquid smooth or slim kat
[Nexus 4 General] nixie2121:
Is there a rom that is very "different"? Slim, Purity, Rasta., Mahdi, all feel the same to me. Android L is cool, but not everything is ready for the way I like myself. Is there a ROM that has a different feel than the others? (if that makes sense?)

Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
Me too. I've been using SlimKat for the past 2 weeks, but just went back to LiquidSmooth. No offense to SlimKat, but after going back to LS, I have to wonder why the hell I switched. Stupid as it may sound, I think the only reason is I prefer the old nav buttons over the L buttons. LiquidSmooth is just awesome.

Honestly, not really. In the past month, I've tried probably 20+ different ROMs. All of them borrow features from other ROMs, all AOSP based, so yeah, apart from differing options, they're all much the same. Beyond that, it's up to you. Theming, custom launchers, Xposed tweaks, etc. The ROMs themselves don't look all that different because they don't. It's expected of you to do these things for yourself.

The developer "Chad" made a big deal about people even mentioning "Velocity" in the XDA forums and has since pulled all links because people were talking about it here.:thumbdown:

He made a long post about it on his forum.

Here is the post...

"Alright...this is where I need everyones help. Just made a quick run through of XDA. I usually search Velocity to make sure Im being ignored in here. Searching this time revealed TONS of posts and LINKS!! to Velocity. Please please please ( before I have to remove all links) DO NOT under ANY circumstances post about or link to Velocity. If you frequent XDA and ever see anyone one doing so please tell them to pull down the links and refrain from talking about it there. As far as anyone on XDA is concerned this Rom doesnt exists. I certainly dont want this showing up in other dev's threads as thats plain rude. This is a totally PRIVATE Rom, with a PRIVATE forum and PRIVATE source. I share with you guys because I want to, but Ill be forced to remove this forum and all links if this continues. One would think the fact Im not on XDA would be enough for them to know I dont want this mentioned outside of here. Thanks in advance for your help on this."
