Size of Aroma ROMs - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

I just started uploading some ROMs with Aroma Installer and this takes a lot of time.
So I started looking at the size of the files:
ROMS with Aroma installer:
Chrack's ROM: 960 MB
Alba's ROM: 930 MB
Criskelo's ROM: 680 MB
Compare this with "normal" ROMs:
Stock ROMs: 650-700 MB
CM ROMs:
CM9/10 ROMs: 150-200 MB (incl. GApps)
Right now I'm waiting for the first Aroma ROM > 1 GB.
I like the possibility of choosing my flavour of ROM, but I think they are getting too big.

These are Note Roms. So the bigger the better. :cyclops:
As long we have fast download servers im not worried at all. Even if they were twice as big as now.
Just not fair for ppl with lame internet connection.

Aroma is about being able to choose options when installing, this means aroma roms are always going to be bigger then their vanilla counterparts, if the base is the same and not trimmed down.
Dont see the issue here

Aroma works not all the time, always getting stuff on my phone that i do not want, better to upload the rom and flash zips with the things you want. I want a light rom and the rest i paste in my system folder if i want. Theme and kernel you can leave out, always flash with root kenrel so i have root, theme i flash afterwords. That will make it much lighter. Theme is about 40 mb. I think the developer should just upload his rom how he likes it. If you not like than flash something else.

[ROM][32B] perfect 2.2 rom + kernel combination

Hello guys 'n girls!
I spent a long time on combining all the froyo-based roms out there with the different kernels that are available.
Here's the outcome:
Use OTA-CM-mix froyo rom from amazinglarry: [link]
After flashing the rom, flash ezterry's BiffMod kernel: [link]
Why should u use it?
it's REALLY fast
the battery-life is pretty good (I play around with it alot and get about 2 days!)

Should I Upgrade To Official 2.3 Or Wait For Improved Roms

Should I upgrade to "WB-XPERIA TW Gingerbread | Speed&Hotfix 003 | 100% Mobile Bravia | 31/7/2011" or should I wait for future roms?
I dont want to have to backup and upgrade again if there are gonna be better roms in a few days.

That's half the fun
I'd suggest flash either wolfs or Ericks ROM as they both are releasing updates so all you need to do is delete the scriptz folder and install the updated tweaks zip...
That way you have a great ROM and it only gets better
These first custom ROMs are stable and fast as they are based on pretty good stock ROM.
These guys had not a chance to mes... to tweak them much yet so everything should be working fine
Custom roms are actually the future of the x10.
Either wolfie's or from others your phone will getting day by the day because they are releasing updates so fast .
Choose your custom rom flah and you will not regret it .
Vatis
yeah little by little it is getting easier how to flash/xrec roms and stuff like that. using wolfs rom and it is better than stock gb rom.
flashing new rom's can't possibly be easier imo ... almost anybody can do it

Hi all,
This is the discussion thread of our Galaxy 3 ROMs. Including Froyo, Gingerbread & ICS. Ups & Downs in every ROM, Suggestions to the Dev, Problems facing & their solutions etc.
Your opinion counts which will help in evolution of custom ROMs. Of course, It all depends on your personal preferences. But still...
Some ROMs notable alphabetically...
Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe)
Dutchmods
ICS for G3
Kyora ROM
Kyrillos ROM
Purumod ROM
Sekhy ROM
Vivek's ROM
A Note: Please do not hurt personally anybody.
Thanks in advance,

Thanks, thread stuck.. maybe an idea to list the roms as well..
I like the ICS UI better than any laucher ones
For GB : CM7 is the best
For Froyo (JPU) : Kyorarom 5.2 with G3Mod 2.3 kernel non-oc (flash manually the kernel) -> very stable, ultra fast, and, for my dad, the most battery efficient Rom (5-6 days per charge and 1 week if you use nothing).
Im a freshman in flashing roms, im doing this for about 2 months now. And i can say that
Cynogenmod Port is the best for our Galaxy 3, of course Kyrillos Rom based on CM7-A7 will stand next to the first one. Although on Cynogenmod Port (Marcellusbe) we dont have full bluetooth function and camera is black/white, but its very stable.
Hmmm..Tough Question!
I have tried Kyorarom and Kyrillos and I find Kyrillos v9.5 better than Kyorarom 0.5.2,both in case of battery backup and performance Kyrillos exceeds Kyorarom.
Kyorarom needs to be refined a little and everything will be fine, coz am having lag problems on it.
Still got to try Sekhy's and DutchMod. I am having download problems as of now so will try both the ROMs and report soon.

Have tried and did not pass Boot Loop in the following ROMs
1. Kyora ROM
2. Kyrillos ROM
Used Vivek's ROM for 2 days and it was fantastic, but the data usage while roaming drained me completely..but one of the best for G3.
Currently use CM but CM needs to be tweaked continuously for better battery and results. The features that CM 7.1 has is great. All working fine
Have tried CM 6.2 too and was happy.
The only ROM to beat CM on features is WIUI, but WIUI does not support G3 currently
Hope this helps!
Well, I have tried plenty of ROMs for G3 (from the latest e.g. Kyorarom v0.5.2, Kyrillos 9.5, CM 6.2...) but all of them beats CM 7.1 modded by Kyrillos - GWK74.
It´s fast as hell, stable, pretty good battery backup (3 days of moderate usage).
The only thing I miss are video codecs for avi format, which were in froyo ROMs.
And another suggestion it would be great if Fugumod Ultra kernel would support Gingerbread ROMs...don´t know if it´s possible, but it´s performance in froyo is epic
Tried many ROMs but i find the Kyrillos version of cm7 the best....
On a serious note, i think the stock JPU ROM is insanely smooth and fast I'm using it right now and app opening times, scrolling etc. are really fast and smooth. Battery backup is also awesome compared to Kyrillos' ROM V 9.5 where the battery lasted 1 day of heavy usage then 1 day of hardly any usage because i was scared to waste the battery half the way through the day in case i got any important phone calls.
In my Opinion the cm7 port is the best not only cause you can change your design via cm7 but also performance and battery is very good here, had kyrollos before but yeah i wanted something new and with cm7 port i have much mor fun with my phone
ICS
As long as you don't need bluetooth and camera badly, i actually think ICS is pretty amazing. It's good enough for daily use now at least, almost at CM7 level.
My opinion =
For daily usage: Stock rom (I recommend XXJPS or DDJP4)
Need for speed? : Kyorarom , Kyrillos' rom
Classic rom : Vivek's rom or Purumod
For showing off: CM7, ICS, AOSP original ginger port by marcel

Hi Sekhar,
Could you add the link to each of these ROM threads - and have a comparison [a fair one] for the benefit of the community?
I've not tried Purumod, Sekhy etc..
And what is the funda is installing a ROM from earlier version?
For Instance, Your ROm suggests that the earlier version be installed first..I'm foxed here

Sekhys ROM
Sekhys ROM for Gb is fantastic. Nice user experience and great display for normal use.
But Videos are Laggy and other than mp4 formats dont play..
Bloatware IMO is avast and Battery XL Both can be removed by force closing the apps and uninstalling them in applications
Like Kyrillos' v9.5 most. Of course I didn't like battery life with 'default' g3mod kernels especially when I was using 2g/3g internet connection so I flashed Astrum v 1.0 from moikop and now everything works like a charm ;-)

Same here, hope K 10. will get rid of battery drain prob.
...tried Kyrillos' 10 Beta 1 over the weekend and performance and battery drain is really ok.
of course there are still some probs as the black/white preview when taking pictures with camera and didn't get bluetooth connection to send/receive some files; but as pictures are taken in colour (seen when accessed on sdcard) and files can also send by wireless (f.e. airdroid) or usb connection (cable) i can live with it. also having data2sd with link2sd (s2e didn't work properly for me; corrupted my sdcard)
perhaps i'll flash K 10 beta2 end of next week?!

none of you tryed DM? I like to hear some feedback for improvements

[Q] Why are some ROMs only 200mb while many are 1.5gb?

It seems there are two types of ROMs, but I don't know what the difference is. Can I have some help?
No ROM could be that small, 200 MB, at least not for Note 3. The standard size is 1.2-1.5 GB for a TouchWiz based ROM. If you have seen a ROM of 200 MB or that small amount in size then it must be an OTA update file, or some update package. The base ROM can never be that small.

Well it could be a cm based rom since you have to flash gapps separately.
Cyanongenmod's site has a bunch of these.
These are all around 200mb, and I can't seem to find a base ROM on the site. Are they just very simple ROMs?
All cyanogenmod roms are pure android (even with out gogle apps, you have to download them seperately) being pure android means they don't have toucwiz,s-pen features and bloatware.
While roms based on the official samsung firmware are around1-1.7gb (because they have touchwiz which is heavily themed, they have extra functionality aircommand, airbrowse and spen features) so they tend to be latger in siE
Hope that helped !!

Hello Suggest Me Best Rom for Lenovo a6k 1GB model.

Please Suggest The best Rom for Today !!
I want rom that should have 200-300mb free ram after installing more than 30-40 apps on user profile .
which gives Flexability while playing games.
1gb model Halt or hangs most of the time. when the cache size become bigger in 4 to 5 days usage. (any sol for that is appreciated, temp sol is to clear from twrp recovery. )
Follow
Use mokee7.1.2 by dev_harsh!t. Very stable rom with around 400mb ram always free. Good battery backup. Smooth like butter with no lags. No crashes even. Recommended to try it once.
try Resurrection Remix or AICP by dev_harsh....
try CM13 by ED300 + Phantom Kernel + Xposed Modules with CPU OC to 2GHz/ GPU @ 720MHz (for your insane gaming requirements to run smooth) if you plan to go with Marshmallow otherwise with Nougat go with Resurrection Remix 5.8.4 by Harsh (its got all the required fixes and is up to date and even supports OTA Update however u can only flash custom kernel on Port)
