The "Xylon" ROM is another pretty fast and responsive custom ROM which is famous for its very fast and easy to use shortcuts. The Xylon is a ROM that is built off of AOSP, that actually means that the ROM is based on stock ROM with a few features added over the original one. Basically, the features of FNV, CM, AOKP, Team BAKED, and Paranoid Android make up to be Xylon ROM. The ROM is very smooth and its reviews have revealed that the ROM is very much user friendly with the battery life and extends it at an unbelievable rate. Unfortunately, he ROM is not so universal and is only available on the Google Nexus 4.
6 - CodefireX
6 - CodefireX
The "CodefireX" ROM is another ROM which is very high at performance and smooth at using. The ROM has a many of features from the CynogenMod ROM. Well, CynogenMod has just became the ancestor of all the newly developed ROMs.
So the CodefireX ROM has a very good user interface and has a very nice lag less performance on high end games. The ROM is available on many devices, I am giving a few of supported devices here which can be flashed with this ROM.

3 - AOKP
3 - AOKP
The AOKP doesn’t needs any recognition. Here it is at the 3rd postion is this list. Android Open Kang Project, i.e. AOKP for this ROM which was started in 2011 with Android Ice Cream Sandwich as its base. It’s been one of my all time favorites on a Nexus devices, because you can change the software key colors!

2 - CyanogenMod 10.1
The most popular custom ROM in the Flashing arena is here at the second position in my list of best custom ROMs. CyanogenMod has been around since the beginning and has gained more team members, device support and new features over the years. Including customizable quick settings, customizable software and hardware keys and much more. CyanogenMod 10.1 is available for a tons of devices. Also developers had changed the kernels of few Phones to make this ROM work on their device. Also, there are plenty and thousand of themes available for CynogenMod on the Google Play Store. Still we are not going to term any features as there are many many to be listed out here. Actually this is the best option for a newbie for flashing a ROM and I personally use this ROM and I'm really very very happy with it :)
