I like stock Android but at the same time I also think multi-window, air view, and a few other Touchwiz features are useful. Is it going to be possible for any roms to integrate them?
touchwiz-based custom roms, yes!
aosp-based, probably not.
but touchwiz-based roms are just as good

are there any efforts on custom ROMs which would support S-View covers and behavior?
Or is this a proprietary thing that is doomed to only ever be in the stock ROM?
I am wondering if trying custom ROMs will mean losing this feature?

S-View covers on custom ROMs should work fine, they do on the Note 3 also. - so long as you are using Touchwiz based ROMs at least.
Hey guys, so i have got the i9505 and i have a few questions about it.
1: It's pretty laggy but i really do like the look of the s4 touchwiz, are there any tweaks/mods that I can do to increase performance? 2nd option is me installing a rom, any recommendations?
2: I know it's pretty far-fetched but is their like an app where you can install apps on but it's sort of like a cloud storage so you dont have to install the app on your device or sd-card. I don't think there are but if it is possible it would be epic. If there are no apps like that, is there an option to automatically save app data to a cloud storage (yeah i have titanium backup pro, but i dont think when you put your files in dropbox/google drive it will actually read them from dropbox/google drive. And when you sync app data with dropbox/google drive i dont think it removes the files of your sd card.
So if someone knows something about these 2 topics I'd like a reply
Thanks for reading,
See the custom roms are on preference.
Few like the touchwiz based roms.
Others like pure android. (CM AOSP PW Mahdi etc etc)
Touchwiz roms are beautified by the devs. We have to apply themes on CM/AOSP to get the beauty and can change it as and when we like.
CM/AOSP roms have better update support. A touchwiz dev might just abandon the project after a few updates.
Plus CM/AOSP based roms use less ram than touchwiz roms.
On the other hand, TW based roms are a boon for the i9505 people. Those who dont want to trip the knox counter can flash a few TW based roms without tripping knox!!
And TW based roms bring out the real beauty and 0% bloat and lag on the TW launcher and additional aspects.
It is all on preferences. You can check the i9505 Android Development and i9505 Original Android Development thread for your picks
I was a TW rom lover too, till I flashed a CM11 based rom
You can get the TW feel on CM11 bdw
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "
Thanks i'll search for some ROMs then
i received a S5 and of an debt and i will use it, Im a motorola user and im used with rom's like "minimal ROM" with everything ripped, There are any ROM for S5 duos like that?
Thanks
You can use any touchwiz based rom and remove features you don't want at installation. Try epsilon for example that what i used.
If you don't want touchwiz at all, you can just flash aosp or cm rom, it removes all samsung features.

I hate this touchwiz, i will try this epsilon, it work the fingerprint?
Why its so dificult find a clean ROM for samsungs, touchwiz + bloatware sux Hahahah
Thanks
You can choose what stock features to leave, and fingerprint is one of them, so yes you can make fingerprint work.
There is also XtreStoLite which consists in a very debloated rom (500mb or so) and in an add-on which has every samsung feature from wich you can chose only those you need (like fingerprint or one hand mode). An the battery life its just...amazing. Minimal rom...maximal batt.
I am just wondering how many people like the actual STOCK rom and cyanogen based ROM
So I am making a poll to see which one get's more vote
P.S this is not related to someone's specific ROM..
As we all know, some people like to keep STOCK as it is and some like modifications and customizations.
Stock means pure stock experience with root (OBviously) and Some like CyanogenMod ROM or based on it.
This is a poll to know what most users like.
Stock in this case means a very stable bug-free ROM with some nice features, like Moto Display. The little bloatware is gone after root. And you cans still get the customizations you want through custom kernels, Layers and/or Xposed !
Are there any ROMs based on stock TW marshmallow for the Note3?
I was looking for something maybe based on Note5 Marshmallow but all the ROMs I can find are N5/S7 hybrids. I would dearly love just stock marshmallow with basic Note functions (like S Pen, Air Command and other decent Samsung apps) and none of the crap. Things like pre-rooted, multi-CSC, de-knoxed, etc. while nice bonuses aren't necessary.
Barring that are there any hybrid ROMs that at least just come with the basics instead of all the unnecessary bells and whistles?
Or if none exists yet, are there at least any ways of debloating after flashing a bells and whistles ROM?
In samsungviet there is a debloater script for S7 port.
