Hi guys,
I'm new to android, but after doing some research, I have come to the conclusion that I do not want to use the Touchwiz UI on the Samsung Galaxy S4 I intend to purchase in about a week or so. I have watched a couple videos regarding Cyanogen Mod and the SuperNexus Project that all have the rooted software and mod on a Galaxy S3 or other android device. Because the Galaxy S4 is such a new phone, I haven't see any videos regarding this process on that phone, and when searching it in Google, I find results with search titles that are geared towards S2 or S3 users. Could someone here please tell me if it's possible to install the SuperNexus mods on a rooted Galaxy S4, and if so whether it's the same process or if it is different. Thank you very much.

I had a question before coming to this forum,
I would like to know if its possible to get the kitkat android on S4?
I got my Nexus 5 and wondering if I can use the stock android from my nexus for S4 Galaxy?
Basically I'm asking if its possible using my nexus 5 to install a clean google version of kitkat on my S4?
Now I found this particular thread but not sure if I'm not the right track.

This is the S4 Active forum - either you are in the wrong place or you meant to ask about the S4 Active.
Hello everyone,
I just got my Galaxy S4 a couple of hours ago and i'm loving it! I've been an iPhone user for some time but I have had some experience on Androids before back when I had my Galaxy S3.
I'm familiar with Rooting and flashing custom ROMS but i'd like to try those built-in features the Galaxy S4 has before flashing Custom ROMS.
When I had my GS3, my favorite kernel was the "Siyah Kernel" because it had the Dual-Boot option. Is there something similar on the GS4?
Anyways, it's good to be back and i'll do my best to help out whenever I can.
Oh, and sorry if this is the wrong section but I couldn't find a proper one to post this.
Hello developers,
now where every single S5 app is ported to the S4, why does no developer tries to port the whole S5 rom instead of every single app?
The S5 roms for the S4 are pretty good, but a original S5 rom port like for the Note 3 would be even better!
In terms of UI and features there is currently no perfect S5 rom for the S4, every rom has its pros and cons.
But with a full S5 rom port we could have the perfect S5 rom! (And no reason to buy a S5) :laugh:
What about trying this @tamirda @Obi_xD @Albe95 and others?
Thanks in advance
There are lots of rom that contain almost all apps from S5 , it takes just a little research to find them..

I know and i tested almost all of this roms.
But its not the same S5 experience as a ported S5 Rom.
And because the Note 3 has a ported S5 Rom i think it would be no problem for a experienced developer to do this.

Hey guys, A new note 3 user here.
I have a Samsung Galaxy SM-N900 as seen in my signature, As per my understanding its an exynos note 3 i guess. There are a few things i wanted to ask
1. Is there a custom rom which is more fluid and bloatware free than the stock one, i previously used Dr. Ketan's rom in my other note 3 and i was impressed with it. How is the MIUI one? Will i be able to connect my gear after installing a custom rom?
2. I checked out and found out that the exynos version doesn't have CM, paranoid android, AOKP and the likes. Do they exist for this phone? Or they don't due to the exynos chip?
3. I am unable to connect my gear using the Android wear app. Any solutions
Thanks for your help

First of all, get your information suited up...
If you are using a Galaxy gear(TIZEN OS), you will be able to connect it to every device you want, BUT; only with samsung firmware you will have full function(For example; Samsung apps, mediacontroller, s health etc), the clock is the most you will get . The galaxy gear doesn't work on android wear, it works on the samsung app...
If you have a gear live, Can't say much cause I don't use android wear yet, BUT: wrong choice buddy, you should have gone for the Moto 360
Hi all,
I'm a tad confused by ROMs for the SM-G900F.
I'm look for straight up vanilla android without touchwiz. Can someone point me to this please?
I had cyanogenmod on a previous galaxy s3, but from what i've read online it may not be the best way to go on s5?
Thanks in advance
I doubt your get a pure vanilla android rom for the Galaxy s5.
As for Cyanogenmod the Galaxy s5 CM12 is available, its as close to vanilla android as your likely to get.
