[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sekas:
Hi guys,

I've been out a lot from the roms community in a while.

I was wondering if you can tell me what are currently the best rom (and key features) out on the market?

I used paranoid, slimrom and currently using euphoria OS.

From my research, both Slim and Euphoria are stuck on lollipop.

Any help?

Best,

FF
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xWolf13:
One acronym, three words. lol

Next time, read the actual forum you're posting in. Helps everyone out. Elaborating on your question, there is NO best ROM. It's simply an opinionative question, which only you can decide on which one is the best for

you

.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragos281993:
Try "Pure Nexus Project". IMO it's the best at the moment, it has a s#+t ton of features and it offers a smooth experience overall. Even if it's been "unofficially" brought to our Nexus 4, we get updates weekly, and the maintainer brings a new update 1-2 days after the "official" update has been pushed out. Paired with a good custom kernel, like "Taurus kernel" or "Quanta kernel", it offers the ultimate experience for the Nexus 4. I don't think it can get any better than that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sekas:
I do understand there is no best rom.

If you're not here to help, I don't understand why you came here to comment.

I said I wanted to know what were the best roms by personal opinion and which key features were good.

I can do a quick search about roms (I did), I just wanted to have some fellows experience.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sekas:
I've seen quite a few videos of Nexus pure and I found it really interesting! Thank you for your opinion.

Does franco still makes good kernels? I used to use Hellscore because of the d2w but now every rom has it, I guess.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xWolf13:
Even if I'm no help, you posted in the Android Development section, so clearly reading is your problem. It also doesn't hurt to try out different ROMs. Of course, it is all about opinion, so others experiences do not matter until

you

have tried the specific ROM that you might desire.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvindgr:
I too thought same thing as [MENTION=4723840]xWolf13[/MENTION] wrote. But thing is our nXs4 is in EOL line for Development. I have already wasted 50+ hours trying to various ROMS silently without writing anywhere about what's wrong in each. So I share my experience which should be useful to you. I am Long aged Mahdi ROM and Euphoria fan! Till Nov-15 I was happily living on that, but when MM ROMs started for nXs4, I wanted to switch. I started with Chroma Nov-15 built. It was stable and smooth at starting. But things became unstable after a week, even Random reboots started on chroma, ditching whole experience. Yes its my fault that I root and use Xposed, but I did the same on Euphoria this whole years!!! Next to chroma, I started trying, ---Disclaimer: THESE ARE MY PERSONAL OPINION ---

Fake ROM latest Jan version (Very stocked, and simply not Root-enable. I've also wrote steps on How to Root it as simple as possible, in its forum)

Cataclysm for Nexus 4[Dec 21, 2015] (It's beautiful mod, but seriously lags lot of Custom ROM features)

The Pure Nexus Project ★ Layers ★ [04/01/16] (Since its marked Unofficial I never wanted to try. Unofficial builts don't make future supports, but post above convinces me to try it, which I may soon)

Minimal OS for Nexus 4 [2015-12-08] (Not long supported after Dec built)

SAOSP - M [09-12-15] (Not long supported after Dec built)

Screw'd Android - v2.0.1-(Way too bloated)

RR Remix (Features are good, but many reply its too buggy)

**crDroid** release every weekend (Less features for a CM built )

Mokee Open Source Project ( Chinese font everywhere)

BeanStalk 6.05 - 01/08/2016 (Packed full of features and I like 6.05 built. But Me and some other users have reported and suggested things, also Devs actively responds to posts!!)

So now I'm in Fake ROM, rooted. I use Quanto kernel on most ROM for D2W, USB Keyboard support for computers, MultiRom and Exponential brightness and not for Performance/Battery tweaks, which I'm ok with stock-settings of kernels for mako! Now I'm on Fake ROM with Quanto, Xposed+GB has also become laggy at running multiple Background apps. I may soon try Beanstalk once 6.06 is launched with many users commented in thread..

I always look for **0.Least delayed Support for updates as much as possible, even if its yearly twice, its ok!** 1. Network Speed meter, 2.Smart-Pulldown notifications. When No clear-able notifications are shown, pulling extends to QS 3.Custom HTML tags for status bar time (Isn't this cool, to have identity shown in our device clock???) Optional stuffs I'd love to have: Custom QS images- like in CM13, Beanstalk,;Slim recents with Long press apps to Force close (it was avilable only once a official custom built of euphoria. I still wish Force closing directly from Recents); RAM bar in Recents; Live display temperature as available in CM roms..

Maybe as [MENTION=4723840]xWolf13[/MENTION] says this thread should be moved to General branch, as its on Development which is misleading...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohit12:
Although this thread does not belong in the development section, it is a really useful thread. Especially for users like OP and myself who don't have time to flash 5 or more ROMs to find a good one. And let's be honest, it's hard to read through all the long posts by the devs. The bugs are rarely mentioned in the first post and you have to read many pages to find issues. Sometimes the changelogs aren't updated either.

This thread should be moved but not deleted. Also, thank you [MENTION=5796730]dragos281993[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5533943]arvindgr[/MENTION] for actually being helpful. I always thought "pure nexus project" would be very similar to stock android (since that's what the name suggests). I'll make sure to check it out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sekas:
I'm so thankful for your reply! I will surely try a few of those roms!

Nevertheless, I'll try bean and pure nexus! Thank you guys!

I just flashed Pure Nexus.

I'm not finding it truly amazing in terms of features. Nevertheless, it's really smooth and fast so far.

Do you use something for d2w? My power button isn't that great and the rom only has d2s.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvindgr:
Glad my experience help you! [MENTION=6193397]Sekas[/MENTION] I'm long time fan of s2w and since s2w isnt supported much, I always use d2w or dt2w on any ROM. I go by this order to achieve it,

1.Flash ROM and Gapps

2. Flash Quanto kernel

3. Install Kernel Adiutor and if wanted install busybox app

4. Search Wake controls menu, and enable DT2W. Also click Apply on Boot

--If on CM Rom, use CM based kernel then use kernel management app... Hope this helps...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sekas:
It really helped!

I installed quanto like you said and it is all working well. Nevertheless, i cant get my google calendário to work. It always says 'Google Calendar Storage not activated - Enable in setting'. But when I look for it or press the button to 'Enable in settings' it doesn't go.

I cant find any solution online. Any help?

Granted Mr. Snarky there may be an issue about appropriate Forum to post, but it is painfully obvious that what is being asked can only be someone's opinion, at best. So what are you going on about?

And there is such a thing as best ROM, even if it comes out only as a thought out short list.

As the other Posters have offered their expertise and I have thereby gained knowledge for my own Nexus 4.

Beanstalk 6.08

After researching over a long time I decided as good as Chroma, Pure or Fake Nexus on my short list sounded in the various Forums to be among the best for stability and features, to opt for Beanstalk 6.08. It kept popping up with rave reviews in Forums like this so great one.

Seeing that the Project will be be yet updated attracted me. A couple of the ROMs available for Nexus 4 won't be yet updated anymore.

That it is basically CM 13 forked makes it CM 13 on steroids. At least for me.

I used Wugfresh to flash the ROM and Gapps from my PC and then by changing my specs to Any Android.,,.Build' rooted it too.

Tho' it turned out to be more work than I expected, I am liking my change from L 5.1.1.

So I think very much that Beanstalk 5608 can run with the best on your short list of best ROMs for Nexus 4.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gutosilva:
For sure. Actually I'm using stock Kitkat (yeah, I love Kitkat) with Franco Kernel. I make undervolt, underclock and my screen time jumps by 3h 5min in moderate use to easily 4h 30 min ~ 5h in constant use (playing, Wi-Fi, etc). I don't have heat problems or lags. You must install, configure by yourself and make tests to discover what configs is the appropriates for your use.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenyz:
Wow, you were right this ROM is CM13 on steroids. Fast, fast, fast. I installed it in order to try hells-Core CM version and it's a good combo, for sure. I think it had most every feature in Pure Nexus ROM (and more!), but it's CM based instead of AOSP based.

Thanks for the recommendation.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spezi77:
Nice to read your feedback! ;)

You might have also noticed that the kernel which comes with the rom, isn't stockish. It has been enriched with tons of features and performance improvements from a variety of brilliant kernel devs, like francescofranco, faux123, hellsgod, flar2, showp1984 and anarkia1976.

I would be really interested in hearing your feedback about the kernel, as well.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xenyz:
New kernel in BS 6.12 is great. It was a good idea to rebase on hells-Core and remove the 15 governors and 4 hotplugs :)

system_server CPU usage is greatly reduced, and System UI is behaving if you don't enable the data traffic monitor.

Overall, really good job, just fix disabling mpdecision service, and add cpu-boost to the config so it's available and I think it's perfect.

Yes, you are right, I'm sorry. So here's the full story. Friend of mine gave me his HTC One M8S, it was stuck in recovery. Here are the first screenshots:

https://postimg.cc/image/kp35x8n9z/

https://postimg.cc/image/p61e8t837/

After that I unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP (i think it was 2.8.6.0). Then I tried to restore it to stuck ROM, I found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/one-m8s-general/help-thread-htc-one-m8s-to-stock-howto-t3190238

So when I tried to do that (I used HTC Europe 1.03.401.11 image), update started just fine, after some time my device just shuts down (it was connected to charger so It was not that battery was dead) and after that I was unable to turn it on.

When I connect my HTC m8s to charger red led light is blinking, but the phone is not turning on. When I connect my phone to pc, fastboot and adb are not working, strange thing is that my pc is recognizing my phone like unidentified device.

So any ideas? Is my phone gone?

Thx
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Try charging it for a few hours. Then hold power+vol up for a minute or so, and see if its boots at all (at least to the bootloader screen).

Neither fastboot nor adb will not work when the device is powered down like this.
