Just post and vote for the best ROM that you actually wanna see and I'll try to make one.
Thinking of:
Validus
Paranoid
Pac-man
Dirty Unicorns
MOD EDIT: Closed at OP's request
Pac-man would eat among of them...
I'd vouch for Paranoid Android.
Will you only build the rom? How about patching, maintaining and developing ROMS that already exist for the device?
either slim or paranoid, I really love minimalist rom
Both Roms Are actually Good
Prefer Paranoid
Will Also Maintain the ROM
Voted for Dirty Unicorns, but what would be better between those 3?
About maintaning the ROM... OTA please? <3
In my Opinion I was aiming for Validus haha but I was so mixed up with thoughts that I needed opinions, OTAs will be available after the ROM gets Official which it'll take a bit so will start as always with Unofficial Builds
For me any slim based, but feature rich ROM, so not too sure what ones from the list fall into that.
If its up to date and stable i'll try it out anyway.
Thanks for building another ROM for this nice little device of ours.
Already tried DU, paranoid, and pac man in my previous device. So for markw I'll be happy to try the Validus
I know right?
Aosp rom bro. I don't like cm based roms
Sent from my Redmi 4 Prime using Tapatalk
I like pure roms. My dream is AospExtend on redmi 4 prime
Paranoid
Copperhead OS please
Seems a nice way to approach, but it doesn't appeal to me.
AOSP based rom wiht xperia apps like launcher video music player, keyboard and gallery
Paranoid would be nice to have for markw.
So nothing anymore?

As the title says. Had it but haven't unlocked for a long time. Looking for 4.2 rom.
My Nexus 10 is better than your tablet. Hah.
Cyanogen mod 6.1 is what you're probably looking for, fastest and most stable rom on the market!

Also interested in this, had pacman but would loop crash system ui with some settings conflicting I guess. And then I couldn't find the "sweet spot". Tried liquid but had notification problems, some apps wouldn't appear in the status bar.
So for now back to CleanRom till I get time to test more.

I will have to try this, I am running Jellybeans 12 atm because I acutally like Touchwiz themed to look like AOSP, never really liked using the launchers like Nova etc (not sure why). I may try it out just to see what 4.2 has etc.
if it's the AOSP look you thrive for but ejjoy the TouchWiz ROM bean is perfect for that. however, if you decide you want to give another TW ROM a try, I personally run my own rom with my own theme, but I ported bean's theme to Team Synergy's ROM, and also CleanROM.
but for a 4.2.2 ROM my personal favorite is Liquid-RC1, Very stable for me good battery life, and has the most features from what I've ran.
If you would like to run a nice 4.1.2 AOSP ROM I highly suggest, either AOKP nov27 build. or ParanoidAndroid 2.5.6
Paranoid Android also has kick ass 4.2 ROM out, along with PAC ROM it's called, it combines the goodies from CM, Paranoid Android, and AOKP ROMS and put's it all into one. Great ROM, but since there's so many features, many are overlapping eachother, or simply are not enabled yet. BUT I still think it's a great ROM!

There are two types of custom Roms. There is the Roms based on the OEM version of android (touchwiz from Samsung and Sense from HTC) and AOSP. AOKP is an AOSP ROM not another type of ROM like MIUI is. With that being said we don't make recommendations as it leads to debates about which ROM is the best. Also everyone here has had different experiences with each ROM to really be of any help. Lastly your thread will be closed by the moderators.
The reason i ask is cause i go to this lnk and only shows aokp on one. As for a new person its a bit confusng.

AOKP is just a modified version of CM. aokp.co: http://aokp.co/devices/d2vzw You'll want Milestone. Keep in mind this is 4.3 and it's based off CM10... there isn't an AOKP for 4.4/CM11 yet.
If you're talking about AOSP-based roms, which are different than CM-based, there's a few (Gummy, Liquid, Carbon, SlimKat...); my daily driver is Gummy with the dkp kernel.

That isn't up to date as there have been at least 20 or so ROMs since then. As I said before AOKP is an AOSP ROM albeit a popular one. AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project. Roms like CyanogenMod,AOKP,ParanoidAndroid and PAC-man are all AOSP ROMs. AOKP is a specific AOSP ROM. The AOKP ROM on that link is the official one created by team AOKP. Beepea206 CyanogenMod is still an AOSP based rom as it is based off the official Android releases like all other AOSP ROMs. Yes they have added their own code and features like the ROMs I have mentioned in this post but they are still AOSP based ROMs. It is like Ubuntu and other Linux OSes they all have added their own codes and features but all are still Linux OSes.
Is there a up to date list on the ROMs than. Since I find ones like the one I posted is out of date. Or a master list of aokp ROM and aosp ROMs and such?

Wrong, albeit semantically.
- AOSP roms are those compiled directly from Google's sources, with device and hardware files modified to work with the rom. For a rom to be 'pure AOSP', it has to be free from any CM repositories, which is why all the non-CM roms right now are 'AOSP-based'... they use the hardware and device repos from CM. As it stands right now, there are no 'pure' AOSP roms for the d2vzw.
- AOKP is a kang (aka the 'K' in AOKP, or Android Open Kang Project) of CM, generally adding more features like the navigation bar and status bar tweaks. There are also AOKP builds that 'cherrypick' things from CM and the AOKP githubs.
- CM is a custom, modified version of the AOSP framework with a slew of hacks and mods; it's essentially a derivative/variant version of Android, drawing on the open-source nature of the OS to create a new one.

No their isn't any at the moment. You will have to go through original Android development section and it isn't a list per se .
I want to know what custom ROM I could use the best on my S2 Plus (i9105P)?
I want a stable and good performance ROM and with some features of course.
Currently I'm on Resurrection Remix v5.1.5 and I like the ROM so far but I want to know if there is a better, newer and maybe more stable ROM for my phone.
And if some of you think a ROM is better then Resurrection Remix also explain to me the difference between that ROM and Resurrection Remix.
Like what's better about it? Are there more features? Will I lose some stuff?
I like to test some ROM's but my S2 Plus is a phone that I daily use a lot so I need a stable ROM for it.

I use RR rom atm too. Maybe cyanogenmod M7 can be good rom. Heard about performance profiles. Also PAC-rom can be good too. PAC man is mix three of most popular roms: Paranoid android, Aopk(android open cource kang) and Cyanogenmod. So features gonna be rich.

About CM11 M7: Can you explain to me what performance profiles are exactly? And what are the difference in performance?
About PAC-man: I see it is still in beta so is it stable? And what features do I have more then on RR and what features will I miss? And what about the performance ?
If I were you I'd make a little list of the features I use and the ones I absolutely need, and maybe the ones I would like to have. Then I would take a look through the different ROMs for our phone (they're not that many to be honest) and try out the promising ones. If you don't have the time, post the list here and we'd be able to help you out more easily.
Personally, I'm still switching ROMs around on my phone. Compatibility with a good kernel is a must for me (I use nebula). My musts are a black/dark UI toggle, lockscreen shortcuts, customizable quick settings, notifications and recent apps menu + statusbar traffic monitor. Things that I could otherwise do using Xposed Framework such as custom animations, progress bars etc. are just bonuses. Those things are found in pretty much every ROM so all that remains is a question of finding the lightest and most stable one.
Currently I've got my money on Dirty Unicorns - even for an early, unofficial build, it's pretty stable while offering everything I need. It's smooth and responsive, plus it's feature-rich - it offers pretty much what everybody else also has and allowed me to easily experiment with features I hadn't used before. This helped me find out what I want and what I don't want in a custom ROM.
Hi
Where I can find a custom rom list for our device?
I was previously using liquidsmooth as that was my favorite ROM with layers, but development has shifted to the CM theme engine. What are some other ROMs.
Just going to say this right now, I'm not really ever going to consider Darkobas since it uses the Omni tree.
Just go on slim ones
XenonHD 5.1.1 is my choise at the moment, running great and has layers
Hello everyone,
I have been on a search for a regularily updated ROM based on AOSP. Since Marshmallow, I found most ROMs for the S4 have been based on CM.
By accident, I stumbled upon VanirAOSP.
I wanted to start a discussion about the latest nigtlies for VanirAOSP as there is no discussion in relation to the S4. I found this thread but it is very much out dated:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2485089
Let me know what you think!
For me it is very stable, there are regular updates and I have found no bugs so far. I would like to know if it truely is AOSP based as I get a slight CM feel off it as opposed to the AOSP based ROM, Dirty Unicorns.
Try it for yourself and see!

There already are several AOSP based roms. VRToxin is AOSP based. And there is an actual AOSP rom made by the JDCTeam.

Hello,
Yeah VRToxin looks cool but it is based on many different ROMs as far as I know. Kind of like Resurrection Remix or PAC ROM. But these ROMs still lean heavily on CM, and I'm looking for a ROM like Omni ROM or Dirty Unicorns that draws completely from AOSP and adds it's own touches from there. Little to no CM.
I know about JDC Team's work and it's fantastic, but it's not really what I'm looking for as it doesn't update that often and it lacks cool features like the ones you would find in Omni ROM or DU.
Basically, I'm a contrary B*****d But Vanir says it's AOSP based, it's got some cool features, it updates regularly and it's working on my S4 so I'm going to see how things!
Taken from the VRToxin thread:
ROM OS Version: 6.0.x Marshmallow

I'd take JDC's performance over features. I can add the features I want to the JDC roms using Xposed, but I cannot add the performance I want to other roms, because the custom kernel in the JDC team roms isn't publicly available.
I didn't know Vanir is still being built for the S4. I saw the old rom threads not being updated anymore so I thought they dropped support.
What kernel are they using? I read that they have their own NUCLEARREACTOR kernel. Are they using for the S4 too or is it just a stock kernel?
Update: So I took VanirAOSP for a ride. The rom seems nice, it has CM influences. But that's not why I tried it. I wanted to see how it fares performance wise. And, in my opinion, JDC's AOSP is better when it comes to performance. Even on the Extreme Battery Profile, the JDC rom seems equal or slightly faster than Vanir on default settings. I didn't do any benchmarks, this is just user experience.
Other than that it seems like a solid rom. But it's not for me. Maybe if there was a way to flash alucard kernel on it.

I will give it a try though! My primary phone is an S5 so I use my S4 to test out new ROMs before committing to them.
You make a good point about performance over features. I just remember installing JDCTeam's AOSP ROM before and of course the next morning at work I Really needed a torch and had no internet to install an app! Things like a torch I took for granted in a ROM. I guess you would just need to put in more time setting it up than you would say CM, which contains many features out of the box.
Yes I set up this discussion to make people aware that the ROM is very much alive and kicking! It seems to be using a custom kernel. The picture below is from the S5 but it's the same story with the S4.
@Steve Geemaggio, you can open the camera app, set it to video and turn on the flash. It's not perfect, but it does the job in an emergency.
Also, the kernel is not really a custom one. It's more of a modified stock cm kernel from what I saw while having the rom on my device. I used Kernel Adiutor to see what I could configure, but there wasn't much to configure. CPU/GPU frequency and governors, some read-ahead cache and I-O schedulers and that's about it.
For normal everyday usage it's ok, but if you're a tweaker/poweruser there isn't much to do.

That's exactly what I did my friend
That's a pity about the kernel. It does seem good enough for everyday usage, but I'm starting to feel it could do better. The lack of a music player and file manager day one seemed strange to me and I find the default browser is a small bit buggy. Perhaps it's just early days for this build.
Hopefully they will make it more power user friendly as builds continue to come out.
For now I think I may try VRToxin. It looks very impressive!

Hello again,
I tried out VRToxin 4.0 on my S5.
My first impression, was that it looks awesome. Feature-wise, there is nothing you can't do! It is by far the most feature-rich and most unique looking ROM I have ever used.
Unfortunately I also find that it is very buggy at the moment. In the 19/03/16 release, The default calendar and clock crash as soon as you try to open them. Some features, such as 'Automatic Mode' in 'Themes' can't be used as they cause the system UI to crash every so often. I also noted that the kernel is set to 'Permissive' by default.
I like this ROM and I want to use it, but with bugs like these, I would rather the ROM was updated more often.
Thank you for the suggestion anyway and I'm glad you found Vanir to be okay.
I run this rom. Have for awhile.i believe they have a Google plus page and don't post much on xda anymore
