I like the simplicity of cm 11 but the only thing keeping me away from it is a feature. Why doesn't cm have lock screen notifications like other roms?I have seen that the latest snapshot has heads up notifications. Those are cool but I like the loscreen notifications. I know I can use another rom, but other roms have a lot of other stuff that I don't need nor use. For example Like halo omni switch and other stuff.

The best lock screen notification app I've come across is NiLS from the Store. Looks and behaves just like the built in ones you are talking about.
Some Roms just haven't yet included things like that because either they just don't want to or there not at that stage yet where they are comfortable releasing that feature
If you want to try a really sweet rom that does have them along with some other great features without being a total Kanger ROM I highly suggest the latest Vanir Commotio .
It's running flawless for me with Alucards latest kernel. Stable not one FC and battery and performance are awesome.

hey guys I'm trying to make my way around to all these roms to try for myself. just wanted to get a headsup on what to expect? what are some differences between pure cm9 and cm9 builds like hydrog3n and resurrection.
like I had cm7 on my sgs1 and it had built in BLN that didnt rape battery, I'm not seeing that on my hydro rom. also getting a weird bug where task manager pops up over lockscreen when unlocking .. anyways ill drop some thanks rep to anyone who gives feedback

pure cm9 is pure、fast and clean,even without file Exploerer.
Hydrog3n and Resurrection build is based on AOKP,which have more setting about UI and CPU/IO control

They are all AOSP based, most of the AOSP based ROMs for the SGS2 at least use the device setup from CM9 and usually add their own tweaks and themeing to it, but the overall experience is going to be similar, keep in mind however that CM9 updates on a fairly regular basis (nightlies aren't every night atm, but close) whereas some of these other ROMs may take weeks to incorporate new AOSP features. As for BLN you would need a custom kernel for this, CM stock doesn't currently support it, also on the SGS2 BLN holds a wake lock where on the SGS it did not, this will cause far more drain on the SGS2 than you experienced on the SGS, unfortunately this doesn't appear avoidable.
Pure CM9 > Update Faster
CM9 builds like hydrog3n > Have AOKP, more tweak as the above said
CM9 builds like resurrection > Have AOKP merged with gapps
i dont use google service, just sync contact and mail from Google, so i choose in between hydrog3n and CM9
finally,i choose to use Pure CM9 as it updated faster.
Hydrog3n is a very good rom. A lot of tweak and a cm9 base. But the battery life is not optimized for this time.

A good place to start here would be to read each ROM's thread. We have enough clutter and non-meaningful conversation as it is. We don't need anymore lazy users asking for the Cliff Notes.

I'm currently using SuperNexus and love it. No bloat, pretty much a raw jelly bean OS. Everything works fine. The only thing I'm missing that I really wish I had, was the notification toggles. The app store has some apps that mimic the feature but none of them work the way I like,
So, can anyone tell me which ROM is as basic as SuperNexus, but with the notification toggles integrated?
Temasek's build
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797109
I will check it out.
I'm sort of confused. A lot of ROMs say they are based off CM10. So is CM10 pretty much the pure Android OS with no extras? I can't find a feature list for CM10.
Yeah its based off AOSP, a lot roms use CM10 as a base depending on what hardware the cm10 was built for
Thanks. I will check out Temaseks in a second.
I am glad I found omega ROM v34, it's a nice try for me & I think I'm gonna stick with it..
Use CM10 for pure android experience. You can install notification toggle mod in your rom too if you only want that feature.
I'm also using SuperNexus too and is a great ROM for a pure stock android experience, I missed the notification toggles too but found this app and it does everything i want and even more check it out is called Notification Toggles

Liquid Smooth ROM
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I would suggest SlimBean! It's truly Basic AOSP with the main features needed! I am loving this ROM and no bugs with it at all. Check out their thread. It is one of my favourite ROMs ever, also they update it frequently.
Ive been messing around with root privileges for a while now, an think its nearly time to flash a new rom to get rid of all the crappy bloatware that comes preinstalled, and just generally get a few more features
What features will i lose if i chose to flash an AOKP rom rather than a modified touchwiz rom? i dont want to be losing NFC, Wifi Direct, Quick toggles or anything like that really if i can help it
Is there any benefit to an AOKP rom other than its an unaltered android experience?
Thanks

From my experience AOKP roms are usually noticeably faster to switch between apps, to launch apps, multitask, and the home button lag is almost inexistent so they are really quick doing most of the stuff, there is a NFC fix somewhere around here in XDA I think most of the fixes you can find them on the Paranoid Android rom or the Super Nexus rom. On the other side... With the sammy roms you get all the cool extra features AND the camera! That they really come in handy most of the time!
Touchwiz is a ... Samsung ROM (sammy) launcher , AOKP is a ROM series based on CM anyway we've got and above description is more then enough . You better visit those threads to complete your doubts instead opening a new thread . AOKP = android open kang project

Hey guys,
My dad has been using my RAZR running 4.1.2 for a year now and I plan to move it to a KitKat based ROM. I've haven't visited these forums in a while so I'm really out of touch with the ROM scene.
I need help in choosing a simple Kitkat ROM (preferably no pie/halo and no extensive customization). Stability is of paramount importance.
Any suggestions will be extremely helpful. Kudos!

I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Slimkat. I have been following this ROM since its creation. This last build, 5.2 is seriously flawless, not just saying that because it is my favorite. I have tried other KK Roms for the XT912 on VZW and they all seem to have some kind of issue. APN issues, system UI crashes, random restarts, freezes forcing me to reboot, high battery drain, wakelock issues. The 5.2 SK, with the latest Slim GAPPS seems stable enough so far to flash to my stock slot... still waiting to pull that trigger though. I have been running this setup for about two weeks now since I got my insurance replacement and it has been great! I have not had any crashes, freezes, or lockups. Everything works flawlessly (Wifi, bluetooth, MMS, etc)
It does not have a lot of in depth extras like pie, halo, or cpu control. You can install those later if you want. I have trickster mod installed as a CPU governor, but the stock kernel and settings are just fine too. It does have all the necessary KK features and other extras I like. Full dark, quick tiles and customization, lots of shortcuts, status bar customizations, privacy guard settings for apps, and most of all great battery life. I consistently get a good 20 hours on a charge with fairly heavy usage with voice calls, and streaming siriusXM app, or play music.
Total time from rooting, flashing the newest SS (which allows for bigger partitions now!!!), D-loading and flashing SK rom and Gapps, then restoring apps/data from TI backup all took about an hour or so with absolutely no problems. This ROM is sure to bring new life into the not so outdated RAZR.
Hope this helps and let us know what you decide and how it works out.
I just flashed the 5.2 SK, I also have on my xt910maxx LS and RR. it is a simple rom, without so many extra features. I will give it a go to see the stability and battery life. just one question: from were can I download omniswich and active display?

Thanks for the suggestion. In the meantime I've crossed off LiquidSmooth and Resurrection Remix off my list. Way too many features. I'll be trying PA, CM11 M6 and Slimkat next.
EDIT: The RAZR is on SlimKat. I'm impressed. Waiting for dad's response!
i found am alternativ for activdisplay-acdisplay. Amyone has an alternativ for omnyswich? Or domething similar to accrs favorite apps from any window?

I flashed slimkat on a friend's razr, and he is very happy with kitkat!
Simple, fast and stable.
However CM is always a good choice
If you just want the Pure Stock Experience ..which has not many customizations ...i think you can go for CM11
all other ROMS have Pie Halo and other extensive customizations!!
Best Regards!

I'm far from experienced, but I have tried Slim, CM and Axxion. The Axxion is by far the most stable Rom I have used.
Thanks for the suggestions, should help me out..
Eclipse is a pretty smooth aosp 4.3

I would also recommend paranoid android rc2 as being the most streamlined solid rom as well as cyanogenmod 11 the m7 build is pretty stable though I am using the most recent nightly build which is also running well. Both are now really stable and reliable.

[Paranoid android ROM is missingtons of features.. What happened to u guys? You guys were awesome. You guys were adding nice and unique functionalities to android like halo, pie, hover . but what happened now. Now the current paranoid android ROM has only theme engine. Why you guys removed all those nice features. Please add some xblast tools features and the floating windows features. And you guys did a great job. Good work. Always liked paranoid android Roms they have very unique and good functionalities.
Somebody hasn't tried it obviously.
We have hover, we have pie, we have floating window, quick settings, etc etc.

I like your rom and CyanogenMod function more!
Lock Screen
High Guys does this Rom have lock screen notifications ?
USB host
Add USB host mode.
The only thing keeping me back from upgrading from 3.99 to 4.4 is the fact it doesn't have the one feature which I heavily use... The Hybrid engine, that has to be my favorite mod to Android.
I hope you guys release it soon.
Keep up the good work!

The new paranoid android rom which i used doesnt have hover or floating apps. The one with CM theme engine integrated. The main thing which i am missing a lot is the hybrid engine.

If you are running official paranoid android then you definitely have hover and floating apps. Sounds like you didn't turn hover on....
