Best ROM/Kernel for Verizon nexus....??? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Either Tuesday or Wednesday i will be receiving two brand new new Verizon nexus's (32G's in the box with acces...) as a result of the popping and squealing issue i was having with my Samsung charge's. I am just looking for some input on the most stable custom ROM/Kernel out there. I've seen gummy and im definitely digging that but, this is a new adventure for me and all the insight from the nexus community would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. - I already have my galaxy nexus toolkit dl'd and im ready to use this amazing stuffs!!!!! hahaha.. awesome guys!! lol

The advice I will give is to NOT use the toolkits. The Galaxy Nexus is very "hacker" friendly.
Read up on the sticky about unlocking your bootloader and flashing roms instead. It's an easy and great learning experience and will help you get out of trouble later if problems arise.

OP Forum rules specifically ask you to search before posting
Asking what's the best ROM is the same as asking what ROM are you using.
ALL ROMS are the best
Read and try them out.
If you don't have time to read you should not be flashing custom ROMs on your $700 device.
Thanks

Wow this community sucks

Well, that's not a very good way to get information.
It's a slower community. It doesn't see much development anymore and a lot of people have moved on to better phones.
With the 10 or so hours between posts maybe you should have checked out the development section and the ROM Bible and n00b FAQ inside.
If there's something you can't find in those, come on back and we'll see what we can do for you. (I'll answer you to the best of my ability!)
Not trying to be a ****, but have some patience or take the initiative.

Jb roms

Totally new to this phone. Cracked my tbolt last week, got a used 32gig nexus. Ive unlocked, rooted, runnin liquid jb with imo newest kernel. I went with those first because im familiar with both devs. My question, and i love flashing, what are your fav rom/kernel combos for this phone. I found stock jb to be great, but didbt want to pay extra for tethering. I use it, but not often enough for $30 a month. Thanks in advance dudes n dudettes.

Threads like this have been beaten to death (atleast 1 per day). Go to q&a section, click the "search this forum" tab and enter "best rom".
*edit* they should really stop letting people create threads from the xda app...
good day.

Just a warning to you, threads like this are no longer allowed on xda. My suggestion is do a little reading through the roms your interested in and then do a little bit of trial and error until you find what your looking for.
Thread reported
Uh, i did not ask for "best rom" i asked what peoples favorites are. If you cant read, refrain from commenting. Geez, do people read before they type? Ive been a member a very longtime, never ceases to amaze me how people want to be the first to turn a thread into a flame off. All im trying to do is get ideas. Tbolt has almost no roms compared to here. These threads are active, im trying to keep up. If you dont have a fav combo, dont comment. If it needs to go to qna, thats fine by me.

Officer manning, ive got over 2 years on you and 1000 posts, i know the rules. I dont believe i broke a single rule, but then again, i read my post 3 times before i submitted making sure i specifically did not ask for the best rom. I hope your report makes you feel good though.

With the amount of users and different versions of the device we do get overwhelmed with these types of questions.
Everyone will have different opinions about their favorite ROM, but if you wish to discuss the different features each one has please use one of the threads already created for that.
There is a sticky in Verizon's development section that is a good place to start.

Official jelly bean available for AT&T..

I just got a email from Samsung saying the official jb update was available. What do I need to do to go back to stock room and update to OE jelly bean?

Why take all the effort to restore the stock ROM and stock bootloader, when i'm sure someone will have a custom ROM based on the official build, possibly in a day or two?

Yup, that's what I'm waiting for. Why Odin back to stock just to have a bloated Sammy rom, when soon enough one or more of our highly respected Devs will have top notch roms for the flashing.

There's already a rom that came out. It's based on Rogers. It's exactly the same as at&t without bloatware. I have it and it runs great.

I've NEVER understood why in the world people want the "official" updates when they can simply wait a day or 2 for ROM chefs to cook up a bloat, crap free ROM! Why go thru the whole unroot, flash the update then re root again...... Makes NO sense to me, must be really impatient n00bs or something lol justsayin

I run this also, and it works great, but I will say that it's not EXACTLY the same. The lock screen news feed doesn't work, says it can't determine my country...in other words, not Canada, no newsfeed. It's minor stuff.
Shouldn't this be in Q&A/locked due to the fact that there's a discussion thread already for this?

It's just a question.. No need for some of you to get a *****y about a question. I'm on serenity 1.2 and like to have a ROM close to OE... Which ROM were you other guys referring to?
Yea I'm a noob... But I'm sure all of you were noobs at some point...

The only reason people are getting "*****y", as you say, is because you posted your "question" in a development forum. I also was a noob at some point and still act like one here and there but I also show the fellow Xda'ers, devs, and mods alike respect by following the rules of xda and not getting snippy with the people trying to inform of a mistake made. Development sections are strictly for Rom releases and their corresponding threads. Had you posted this in the q&a section no one would have said a word to you. Friendly advice from a semi noob to a complete noob!
Ps people could get a whole lot meaner by the way!! Consider yourself lucky so far!

So many things wrong in this thread
First development is for developers only to post threads
so moving to General
Second there already is a bunch of these so please search before posting
There is a sticky thread in General for this topic to prevent 30 of the same threads
So thread closed
Thanks

[Q] Kernel Sticky?

Ok, i am very comfortable flashy roms now to the point where it is second nature. Now, like i use to with the OG epic, i am ready to play with kernels. Is there a sticky anywhere or a place i can go where they are easily found and compared? Thanks in advance and pardon my ignorance if i missed something...

There's only like 4 or five. It's all in the Android Original Development section. That section isn't very...crowded.
Thank you very much. I also just noticed that the goodness rom had them included in their rom!!

And as The Root said there are very few. Make sure they match your ROM whether it be AOSP or TW.
Also make sure they are for the Sprint GS3, do not flash a kernel that is not specifically for the Sprint variant.

Thanks all....Im on the KToonez one now...not particularly sure or let alone aware of what it is doing but im using it nonetheless. I have only been using it since about my last post so i guess i will soon find out...

S3 (d2att) 4.3 Google edition rom

Good evening everyone! Does anyone think there is any chance at all that Samsung/att will release a Google edition ROM for our phones or hear about any leaks? I searched this, but only got results for aosp ROMs. Don't get me wrong, I like my cm10.1...however it would be cool to have a Google edition ROM too. I'm not overly optimistic, but the hardware is more than powerful enough and the phone is plenty popular enough for Samsung to through us a bone.

Since they never made a Google edition S3 I would never hold my breath for something like that.
It has the specs though I wish they did. But in the real world this likely won't happen.

Thank you for moving it, for some reason I didn't seem like a q&a or dev post to me so I had opted for general. Live and learn.
