So very true, I dont even see the point of custom ROMS with Xposed and the zillions of custom launchers nowadays. Other than MIUI, Firefox OS, and Ubuntu (excuse me if I missed any), all custom ROMs and factory firmwares almost parallel each others' devt, the basic difference being at what point along the way did they start and, if they have, did they end.

[PROJECT][GT-I9100]Ultimate mirror links

I will start a project to create mirror links for every rom/mod/kernel for the international Galaxy S2(GT-I9100).
I have already created mirrors of every modem and from some popular roms but there are many things to be done.Please tell me a rom you want me to mirror and if the dev allows mirroring of his rom.If you don't know if he allows mirroring asking him will help me because i can't pm every dev on s2 section.Please make this thread sticky
I will create mirrors on my goo.im account.My account is here

Great idea!
Keep on working on it, guys! It's a great thing to have all S2's roms mirrored on an unique page! Sometimes sites they're uploaded to doesn't allow more than a determined daily ratio, need regs, etc...
For the roms mirrored you may also create a link that takes you to the original discussion about the rom,. so we double help the developer and the users!
You just need some pub! :highfive:

Aosp roms discussion thread. [Minor FAQ inside]

This thread is for discussing aosp roms, like Slim, Carbon, etc. except for CM though since it has its own thread. This is meant to keep the unhelping chit-chatter out of the development threads where bug reports best reside. When posting here, clarify what aosp rom you're on. Do not post bug reports here, post them in their respective development threads!
One more thing! While this thread progresses, use search and/or read the faq to see if your question has already been posted before, to avoid repetitiveness and us older lads becoming grumpy.
F.A.Q: (frequently asked questions)
I would like to dualboot, what should I do?
Flash siyah kernel
Help! I flashed siyah and now my rom doesn't boot!
It's because whatever rom you use has a newer mali driver which most kernels aren't updated for. Especially siyah which hasn't seen some dev love in ages.
What rom should I flash?
We don't know, you have to try them out yourself!
What's gapps, and is this inside xx rom?
Gapps is short for google apps, which is the Play store and some other apps you sorely need. Go too http://goo.im/gapps and download the gapps package for whatever version you have. Newer aosp roms are most certainly 4.2.2. Some roms, like Slim, have their own separate gapps packages specially made for those roms. In those cases, the standard gapps from goo.im will not work!
Help! I flashed xx rom but now it doesn't boot!
Try making a factory reset in the recovery and reflash whatever rom you were on. Also, in most cases, CWM works better for rom installations. Twrp craps out for unknown reasons.
Help! I wiped data and reflashed the rom but it still doesn't boot!
That sounds like a rom issue. Try flashing an earlier version of the rom.
Help! Something screwed up and now my phone doesn't boot anymore!
Well, reboot into recovery and see if a reflash helps. It is always recommended to regularly keep your system backed up in case something nasty happens. Perform a nandroid backup every once in a while.
What is a nandroid backup?
It's like a screenshot of your current state which you can return to if something bad happens. A nandroid backup backs up the system, boot (kernel) and data and, if specified/selectable, it also backs up cache and recovery. Maybe even efs (in twrp). However, it doesn't back up the modem!
I flashed xx kernel and I now get a black screen upon reboot!
That is because the rom you flashed has the new mali driver from the 4.2.1 leak and the kernel you flashed isn't updated with this driver. Stay on the provided kernel for now.
Thanks to:
I forgot to give thanks where due, and I'm so sorry for that. If I got an advice from you, hit me up and your name goes on this list.
C_tho; for mentioning the mali driver stuff.
Noble Sir Slaphead20; for suggesting I'd maintain an FAQ and suggesting I'd make an entry covering gapps.
great..let me fire up first noob ?...other than siyah any other kernel supports dual boot of cm & sammy rom/ cm or aokp...
edit i know its kernel ? but still related to cm or aokp...

Only Siyah, and Siyah only supports the older aosp roms.
Speaking of aosp, I just had an urge to flash Carbon. Think I'll do it, because I'm a bit bored of running touchwiz and I've run CM for so long I need change. I didn't like RootBox that much (too many settings, lol. I like a "leaner" setup) and there's no official aokp for our device. I also didn't like Slim, so I'll give Carbon another go.

What DSA said. We do not welcome JellyBam here anymore because the developer broke a lot of rules of XDA. Plagiarism and violating the gpl, amongst others.

I updated the op with a small faq. More to come in the following days.
In the Faqs it might be worth mentioning in the gapps bit that some Roms ie slim, have their own gapps, and others won't work
Just flashed Carbon 1.5, not regretting it thus far! This ROM gives the word buttery smooth a whole new meaning!

Not sure this goes here, but ill give it a go anyways.
In the Slimbean thread there was a lot of talk about mali drivers. Now could someone please give me some info on the matter cause seems like I missed something.
Basicly what im wondering is whats up with the mali drivers and why do I want them?

The only problem with SuperNexus is it is updated very slowly. Also Faryaab has exams to do now, so it will not get updated at least until he is done with them.
If you want a super light rom I would reccomend SlimBean it's fast, and light, battery is acceptable, and it's easy to change settings like screen density and navbar settings without having to edit build.prop and decompile framework-res.apk, which you will have to do on SuperNexus.
what about the smoothness of it?
Another one there to vouch for Carbon, running it on both phone and tablet

I love AOSP Roms and thank you for starting this thread. Unfortunately I am afraid that I can't use such Roms as a daily driver because of the camera problems. Bluetooth also seems to be a problem for some users.
Guys I am facing Memory leak problem with the Slim bean 4.2.2.....is it normal? cant seems to find any solution....
you'd be better off asking in the slim thread

How to flash a kernel?

I downloaded Franco kernel and I'm running smoothrom with leankernel however I want to keep what I have just replace lean with Franco. I saw on Google something about fastboot but couldn't find any instructions.
All I want to do is flash Franco kernel and reboot without having to start from scratch or build an installer, the Franco updater app didn't work for me.

Does nobody else install a custom rom and then realize the kernels packaged with the rom are NOT the kernel they wanted?
Not everyone is a code breathing developer-type rom-breathing linux-dragon.
I like custom roms because I like to unlock performance but i by no means am an expert with this stuff.

Franco kernel in development? That's what you are trying to install....correct? Same thread you downloaded it from. Probably near the top of the list.....or a quick Google search or XDA forum search will find it fast.
I'll find it and post a link......tho I bet you can find it quicker.
Do yourself a favor tho....always read the instructions and/or opening post of anything you intend to flash. Could be very important info....that will help you install it.....as well as warnings. Otherwise you will have problems I'm sure. Maybe even brick your device.
Just trying to help my friend. Not pick on you.

whitch version is good and stable for Droid M? i want good version i dont know lolipop versions
phone have 4.4.2 stock recovery.
I personally run BlissPop on my phone, but as of right now there is an issue with phone audio on build from 8-8 that the rom maker is currently working on a fix and for the most part is fairly quick to fix issues with it as soon as they are told about it.... CM is always a good way to go I have ran CM on my other phones... (my of droid is still running CM7)
So if you go with Bliss Pop download version 3.7 from 7-31 I'd your going to go with CM 12 I would look at the post in that section of the forum to find a good stable version

I'd say stay away from Blisspop. It's packed with a ton of great features, but it's inherently unstable because they are *always* changing/switching things.
Like 3.6 had slim recents, but 3.7 killed it and added slim navbar+dim. Then 7/31 downgraded SELinux to Permissive mode and swapped AudioFX for Viper. v3.8 just broke my phone calls and completely disabled awesomeplayer. On G+ someone mentioned v3.9 already, too soon!! They need to focus on fixes not new changes.
I enjoyed the updates-ride but no more. I need stagefright patched AND stability. Goodbye blisspop.

Liquidsmooth if you want features-galore: http://drdevs.com/devs/teamliquid/Nightly/
I tried the newest builds of CM and LS and phone calls work 100%, so that means Blisspop caused its own issues. Also music playback via Eleven/Apollo is MUCH faster: Blisspop always lagged before the music started and just had many sound-related glitches in general.
LS-KK was my daily for 12 months, so I'd say try out CM and Liquidsmooth to decide which you like best.

Noob question - please help

Hi folks,
So my mother has a I9505 galaxy s4 (italian) and I want to install a custom recovery and rom for her to hrlp the device be more functional and fast. Can you please suggest which rom I should choose and what steps I should follow to install the recovery etc..
Thanks!
You can flash twrp from Odin and then you can use twrp to flash custom ROMs.
If you want a very stable ROM, you should stock with these stock ROM or custom ROMs that are as close to stock as possible.
That simple? TWRP and then the custom ROM of choice? Which ROM do you recommend for daily usage which is fast and possibly based off Android 6 or 7?

Are you familiar with Odin? Is the s4 already rooted? (Towel root worked for me) and that is done directly from the s4. As far as ROMs go I have tried almost all of them and ultimately I really enjoyed the tipsy ROM but it runs on kit kat.. Google just recently released Google assistant for all devices running 5.0 and up. So I went to CM 12 running 5.1.1 and it runs pretty smoothly. The most important thing to remember to always always always back up your device..ALWAYS LOL.
And when I first started to dabble in rooting I had the T-Mobile Galaxy S.. The first one that came with Avatar lol.. I'll just say this.. As long as it turns on and u can enter either recovery or download mode you can pretty much recover from and mistake.. Pretty much.
XDA has a great first start section for rooting. And most of the developers are very good at explaining the step by step.
I recommend getting very familiar with your recovery since that will be your primary source of flashing.. Because u can't just flash one! Lol once u get your first successful flash Ro a new custom ROM its like sex.. Gotta see what else u can flash to the device ( for example lucky patcher) and then you will start learning that the developers have some really cool stuff out there..
And CM does nightly ROMs meaning its constantly being updated!
Just do your research first if u don't know ask( obviously lol) Google Google Google lol and ALWAYS ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR DEV.
Titanium Backup in NY opinion is the best.. Hope I didn't get to off topic and I hope I helped.. If u have any other questions I will do NY beat to help and answer them.
