IMO, CyanoGen Mod is the most stable and reliable of all custom ROM's currently available. It has a very large developer base, supports a very large number of phones and tablets and gets regular updates, usually every night. I have a 3 yo HTC Inspire 4G running Android 4.4.4 r2, which makes it more current than the newest Sammy S5. Installing any custom ROM has accessibility issues; putting that aside IMO if you are going down this route, you should use the most stable and reliable custom ROM, and again IMO, that is CyanoGen mod. And for the record, Cyanogen rejected the offer from micro$oft, and others to purchase the company.

Hi. Syanogen isn't worth playing with because it has some a11y troubles. I haven't had a chance to install the other 2 yet so can't comment on them.

On one list, which I cannot get my messages to for some reason, ("eyes-free") and yet I receive the messages, one person posted about OmniROM and Carbon, and Quentin here posted about CyanogenMod. I am hoping a screenreader user can inform me of which mods work with a screenreader, during the install, and then after that, which of the mods work best with TalkBack. Maybe there is not much difference with the different mods once they are installed, as long as they include TalkBack, I just don't know. Finding information on this from a Blind user's perspective is a challenge. We need some YouTube videos/audios on this. Thanks for any information.
