[Q] Stable Kit Kat ROM (as of 2/4/14) - Verizon LG G2

I was running CM 10.2 for awhile then switched to an early CM 11 version and had lots of issues (couldn't get GPS lock, data stopped working, in call volume was broken, SODs, MMS issues). I ended up switching to Malladus 1.2 (currently running 1.2.2) and have had hardly any issues. That being said, I'd really like (a piece of that) Kit Kat (bar).
Does anyone have recommended Kit Kat ROMs for the LG G2 (Verizon)? GPS stability, working in call volume, working MMS, and very very few SODs are what I'm shooting for... maybe too tall of a wish list? Would love to stay close to "vanilla Android" / AOSP.
Any suggestions would be great! Also... is there a good place to go for this sort of information? I get lost flipping through the threads of the other ROMs.

i dont think cm is the best rom,even though it is so fast ,simple ,but too few features.

Hey man for a pretty vanilla rom check put Paranoid Android in the original development section

Gr33nD3vil's CM 11 Unofficial mod is the best so far for Verizon.

Minimalistic ROM for GPS Logging only

I want to use my good old nexus one for gps logging only. Any ideas for a rom or a simple and stable way to cook my own ?
Thanks in advance!
Why do you have to bother about that. Just don't open any apps
Use any stable Gingerbread or even Froyo bare-Android ROM.
I have been looking for something similar actually. Ive turned my N1 into a (mostly) dedicated music player and would love a bare-bones, CM or MIUI-based ROM with all the phone components pulled.
someone started working on one called MelodyMod but the development stopped suddenly and that ROM still has remnants of phone bits and bad battery drain.
if anybody can do this Ill buy you a delicious beer!

Jellybean ROM issue/question

I am currently running Altonus2 V1.2 with Kernel Version 2.6.32.9-kfazz-g21797a7-dirty and first off I must tip my hat to the developers, it's mind blowing that they were able to make this work on the OG Droid.
My issues are: GPS doesn't\ work (no navigation, just "searching for satellites") and the internet crashes shortly after the browser opens. The phone runs slow but I imagine that is just a side effect from running JB on an older phone. Is there a way to get GPS and the internet working? I'm not new to flashing roms and the like but compared to the experience here I'm all but a noob to any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I believe GPS doesn't work because kfazz had to remove /system/lib/hw/gps.sholes.so because it was causing a bootloop for some people, in regard to Wifi several people have reported problems with it and getting it to connect at all or maintain a consistent connection has been very hit and miss. Keep in mind kfrazz himself said while a lot of progress has been made on the Jelly Bean ROM there are still many thing that don't work and will take a long to fix.

[Q] Latest/best rom with everything working?

Tried 10.1 no external mic/voice deal killer. Cm9 no 3/4g radios deal killer, CM10 no gps deal killer. So There are no updated roms that that keep ALL of what I consider core functionality? So I'm on 3.2 any suggestions on the best 3.2 rom? I've re-flashed at least 5 times looking for the "perfect" rom and I'm really sick of entering all my info/apps only to flash them away....
10.1 was great but losing the mic/voice interface is unacceptable. Also the voice interface on 3.2 seems similar to "google now" but not quite can it be upgraded to full functionality?
I'm currently StreakDroid-HD7R3-4G-105 tried r8 first and it wouldn't boot so any thoughts on r4/7 or is the anther rom family to that's better? Thanks for you input..
Stick with what you have.
Microphone is an easy fix, we just haven't gotten around to it. We have lifes to live

Thanks I tried to work around with a bluetooth headset, no joy. when I open voice search it crashes, am I wasting my time there? And thanks for all you efforts, it just that I'm an idiot buying a t-mobile 4g etc. I thought it was also PHONE! Stupid me, but for $120 I"ll beat it with a hammer until it gives in or dies.. So I'm trying correct my ignorance, and get either real or voip phone calls so a mic is kinda important.
Hey scott, you mean 10.1 has 4G band working? Ive been using R8 since thats the only one I know that uses 4G band for sure. Even tho the icon is broke. As for your R8 not booting, did you nvram flash R2 1st then cwm to R8?
I ended up back on r8, I tore everything out and started from scratch and it seems to be working pretty well now. I don't think I redid the partitions when I first rolled back from 10.1 the first time, and that caused all kinds of access errors.
Restore 2.2 found here was invaluable in rolling back all the way to 2.2 for a fresh start..

[Q] Haven't flashed in a while, help please

I haven't updated my SCH-I800 in a while and I notice that there is now a stable "cm-9.1.0-p1c.zip" on the cyanogenmod site but also CM10 builds (cm-10-20130714-NIGHTLY-p1c.zip) as recently as last week. The forums for the I800 aren't up right now so I thought I'd ask here if these CM10s are actually functioning well or if they have lots of missing features. And as much as I dig, I seem to only find half working ROMs or extremely experimental ones that have basic things like WiFi missing. Is there a solid stock Samsung ROM and a solid AOSP ROM that everyone uses at this mater point in this tablet's lifespan?
And is there a new method for flashing at all? Or is ODIN still the way?
Thanks!!!

I have spent the last week or so trying to get an SCH-i800 to run something OTHER than the stock gingerbread well and just haven't found it yet. The closest I got was a build of CM9 but still have sporadic reboots.
It's frustrating since the only thing I want this to do is run some OBD apps for my car. The problem is that apps detect Gingerbread and run in phone mode vs. tablet mode, wasting a bunch of screen space.
Cubed has been pretty much the only non-stock rom that didn't have FC's and random reboots. I don't even use the cellular feature of this tablet - I'd be happy just disabling the modem entirely and running on wifi if it meant it being more stable.
I'm considering just getting a Nexus 7, but the problem is that this thing would need to live in my car and I don't feel like doing that with a new tablet which is why I was trying to get the i800 to work

WiFi doesn't connect with AOSP roms

I just purchased this used N6. This is my first Nexus device, coming from Samsung and LG devices, I am truly amazed at the speed of the device. I don't care what the benchmark scores says, this is way faster than Note4, MotoXPure or LG G4.
One problem I am facing is that the WiFi doesn't connect at my university network with the AOSP roms. I tried PureNexus, Chroma and ResurrectionRemix. I can connect to my home wifi just fine.
On stock based roms it works at both places. I am currently on N6XShamuM rom, and wifi is just fine.
The problem is only with AOSP roms. I didn't have this issue with AOSP rom on my LG G4.
Can someone suggest any solution?
The AOSP roms feels snappier than the stock, so I would prefer to use one of them.
Also bluetooth keeps disconnection on my Pebble Time. No problem with stock.
Guess I have no other option but to stay with stock.
Let me personally recommend Mokee Rom.
It's CM based, updated daily, and has amazing performance. Not a lot of people know about it because it's a page or two back in the development section. No one ever post in it because there are never any problems! Get frisky and try it with blackbird kernel.
Also, try wifi>advanced>wifi frequency band> then alternate between auto, 5, and 2.4 on the aosp Roms, see if it connects
