Since this little corner is so quiet as most of the Dev seems to be elsewhere,what ROMs are you running or have run and why?
I have tried Hyperdrive, CM10 and Liquid. I'm presently bouncing between a deodexed TW base and Liquid. Not a big TW fan but since certain features haven't been fixed on source ROMs yet,mainly microphone over headphones,I find myself needing to have to run TW.
Liquid is pretty smooth , but since Halo was included..I'm not enjoying it as much..feel that it is an unessesary addition. Maybe back on GB it would have been useful...just not now.

jayrod!! An enthusiast... PAC is not like before... Very Stable, much improved over the last couple months.. thanks @sudru_petru(spyder, umts_spyder, tf300t) for his updates and of course all involved... "list toooo long" : I guess what i would really like to do is flash/trick my device into thinking it's not what it is so i could play more with other builds, ROMS, kernels, scripts, apps etc.. I have ran many 4.1.2/4.2.2 ROMS yet iam stuck on this one, i guess "we found each other" after all i have played with and still (not to often) when something new, compatible, crosses my path the CraCkFLaShEr rears its head... And Still, PAC-man is for me!!! ***So how about we figure out how to trick our devices***

I've been running Rage & Eclipse2; w/more of a tendency towrds the latter, simply b/c BDH said there would be no more updates- yes, b/c it is as solid as he can make it, but it IS quite stable.

I like the dark of Eclipse2 & I'm an old fan of nitro's work.

I like customization but to be honest.. the majority of the ROMs out are overkill. I'm not saying a damned thing negative towards the Devs..they are making things that people want.. But seriously how many options do you need to be able to change the color of a status bar or do you really need halo for notifications when the notification system works just fine? I am simple. 4 way power and a customizable lock screen..maybe a couple of things like swiping between qs and notification screen,customize the qs toggles.. and I'm fine. Some optimization for battery/speed...because those are things that I use but lack the ability to create. I can change the visual stuff myself.. so yeah..basic Source with a few tweaks is all I want.

I was running the multi mod..but It made my themed status bar disappear And yes..all of my edits were done using the apks from the mutimod That is why I don't want all the multiple ROM control visual tweaks..I know I'm a whiney broken record who needs to learn how to do stuff himself! : Sent from my Platyraptor extreme ultra maxxxx 4gLTE/GSM/ABC/123 Nick Knack Pattywack Ermegherd GED, MD,RNA,DNA,YMCA Edition S4!

This thread has somewhat died but guess what..it's my thread and I can resurrect it! A lot of ROMs have been released since this thread was started. In this time,I was running Hyperdrive RLS3 (plain TW is not my cup of tea)  Liquid AOSP ..but IMHO,2.8 was the last stable version and even then,it had a few issues.(but I really did like how the notification screens operated)  Tried Rootbox..way too much going on for me. Tried CM10..a few things I have become accustomed to were missing and I have no idea how to include them myself. I have been running Eclipse TW/AOSP 1.6 since it was released as a beta.Have 2 partial themes done for it.. Absolutely my favorite so far...but there are a few things that bug me..nothing major,just annoying (like the warning on headset insertion..and how the headphone volume reverts on disconnecting). Just recently I grabbed Hyperdrive RLS9. Still TW but the ROM has come a long way. Not completely sold on running it though. I did set it up and made a backup though..but Eclipse is just that good. I'm not 100% sure what Eclipse 2.0 has to offer that the 1.6 beta is missing ,so if anyone running 2.0 can chime in..that would be great.

I'm running the Google rom.    Ain't nothing like a stock "rom" built by Google.  

[Captain Crypto]

Stock ROM, Philz Touch recovery.  I haven't had the time to play around yet but I planned to check out Eclipse first.

bonestock 1.1.4 ,just amazing

[sparky697]

Been on Eclipse 2.0. Love the ROM but some of the tw features I love have been removed. Still trying to set it up exactly how I want it. Pretty sweet though.

Can you do me a favor? Can you screenshot a few things? I'm really trying to see if 2.0 is actually much different from the 1.6 beta. Also,what was removed that you use? I have had luck with re-adding a few TW things

[jayrod]

Decided to load up 2.0. Pretty much the same as 1.6 beta except he cleaned it up some,organized a few things and now it's a full AOSP Phone/contacts instead of a AOSP themed TW set..and a couple of bug fixes. Guess I will be on 2.0 myself! Eclipse has been my favorite on here so far It's still TW which is nice for stability but done in a way that is not strictly AOSP. I like it.
