Wanted to get some opinions on the stock Android experience. I've tried it many times and always find myself coming back to touchwiz. Despite the fact I honestly don't use the spen, multi-view, etc I still like having it. I'm thinking about giving it another shot. To those of you that are on CM, AOKP, etc care to share your experiences?

I don't know lol. I wanted to see what appeals about it to others.

I don't care much for the stock Android experience myself so I have not bothered loading one onto my note.

Stock doesn't have multi-window or s pen features. I can't use gestures like swiping the screen for screen shots. I can't use tw widgets like s planner. And I end up using a launcher from the market anyhow like next launcher and I can place that on top of my touch wiz system anyhow. "

I like the small footprint the AOSP ROMS have, meaning they are much smaller in size than a Stock/Touchwiz ROM, and seem to make the phones a bit more nimble/quick/responsive. Purely a subjective opinion based on my time running AOKP on my GNEX for many months.

And AOSP ROMS tend to have pretty awesome customizations not usually found on stock ROMS.

But I prefer to use the TW features on the Note, so I've stayed away from anything other than TW ROMS up to this point.
