Good Android 6.0 Verizon Note 3 SM-N900V ROM

[Alex_2259]

I have seen a few threads with ROMs, most of them being a port of Touchwiz, some of them being unstable or having battery consumption, or 3G issues. In terms of stable ROMs, what do you guys recommend I go with for my note 3 (which, in my opinion, is still one of the best phones on the market)

My phone is rooted, but I haven't unlocked my bootloader yet.

What I am looking for
- Better battery life, RAM usage and speed than Touchwiz
- Working 4G/essential functions (not too concerned about the Spen)
- Stability
- Mostly stock
- Android 6+ hopefully

I'm using AryaMod v6.5 and it runs pretty smooth, compared to other ROMs. There's no NFC and the radio sometimes dumps after a call (requires a quick airplane mode toggle), but other than that, it runs like a champ! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3326976
Be sure to use TWRP v2.8(?) and not the v3.(???), as the newer TWRP doesn't play nice with the AROMA installer. If you are in the US and your carrier is the big red V, pick the Sprint version and Mexico (unbranded) for your country. Getting Visual Voicemail is a bit tricky, but can be done, if you have a good TiBU backup of it and keep your Internal Data files for it.

Of course, there's are a few CM ROMs out there too, but I don't have a lot of experience with them, as they were a bit buggy, when I was flashing them a few months back. At any rate, I hope this helps! Happy flashing! ?

P.S.: If it isn't already obvious, full Nandroid backups are your friend. ?

Nope! A lot of other ROMs require tweaking the SMSC and whatnot, but it's worked right after the flash, for me. (It must've pulled it from my SIM card...?) Seeing as how the radio is a little wonky after calls, if you *do* have failed SMS issues, a simple airplane mode toggle seems to clear it up.
