Ok, here's my situation. I have a Verizon M8, S-OFF, unlocked, rooted, custom firmware... but running the stock VZW Lollipop+Stagefright OTA. Everything patched up to date.
I'm ready to take the plunge and try something more custom (which I've done repeatedly on other phones, so I'm not ignorant here).
The catch? I kind of like Sense. More specifically I kind of like tap-to-wake and motion gestures.
Additionally - and I know I'll catch some flak for this - I really like the Verizon Messages+ for SMS. I know I can install that on any ROM but it uses integrated services that I'm not sure what the requirements are.
So ... which ROM to try? I've been limiting my search to Sense based ROMs, but what do I lose without Sense? I don't much care about blinkfeed, TBH.
Skydragon looks really good, and seems to support VZW. S.Rom seemed nice but apparently VZW support is dead.
Who else should I consider? No matter what my priorities are battery life, audio quality (with an EQ, dear god please...) and not having to endlessly troubleshoot force closes or hangs.
Thanks in advance!
