Hey Guys and Gals,
I recently got a note 3 and I did root it and install a custom rom on it. The custom rom I have installed is Omega Rom. I heard that you install a custom rom because you can customize it much more than the stock rom but how do I customize it?
Also I am open to suggestions to install other roms which can be customized easily and I do not lose the S-Pen Features.
Also since I have rooted my phone which are the apps that are recommended that need to be installed?
Cheers

Look for the Omega files app in the app drawer for installing mods. You will not loose S-Pen options with Samsung based custom roms.

thanks . I agree that you cannot do my work. Are you also using Omega Rom? The Omega Rom thread is way too big to read.

Start by going into the Omega files app and look and try some of the usefull mods posted there. Also look in the Apps and Themes section, many mods available there also. No, i`am still on stock myself, but now and then i flash a rom to try out

Wow...So as per you which rom is the best? I will surely check out Omega Files app and apps and themes section.....
Apart from the rom, since I have rooted my phone, which applications will you recommend as a must have on note 3?

I personaly liked JackyAway rom and Lean Kernel, usefull apps are Titianium Backup, root explorer, Mobile Odin Pro, Triangle Away, superSU Pro, Helium. But there are many good roms and kerels, just try some cause its all a matter of preference.
In my opinion I would just read the first page of each rom and take a look at what the dev has done. Read fixes and make sure everything runs as it should. Sometimes they will post screen shots of what the user interface looks like and what tweaks they offer. YouTube each rom if you don't want to read everything. Many will explain the pros and cons of that particular rom. Hope that helps.

Hey
Thanks for the reply. I did a lot of youtube research but all they show is how to install the rom and may be the initial setup of a rom but what I need is customization as that is one of the reasons to root my android and also would like to see customizations of other users as well

For me it was a case of trying a darky's rom, realising how it all worked, THEN using the kitchen, I cooked roms with the features I liked and flashed them, tested them for looks etc and then decided that a stock rom with a nice theme was my way, I am now learning to make my own packages up
Try the one you selected, if it stinks, then flash another
I store ALL my contacts in google, then I have no issue with contacts, as soon as am happy, I sign in and down they come
I have tested and used titanium and mybackup for the apps, but end up installing from new each time as I change my mind
U can also look at mine.
before you proceed, you shoud know how to fix things when they are in the worst case scenario.

Agree that's the whole key to flashing roms understand what you are doing Read the stickies and FAQs . Read the instructions with the rom .
Dont flash until you know your path to recovery .
Have a read of a number posts if multiple help i broke my phone posts all use the same rom developer then for a newbie it makes sense to steer clear of that rom .
Its not hard the hard part comes from not bothering to read .

Hi all,
I'm new to android & I'm equally frustrated about the lack of internal storage. I'm on a 16GB S4 I9505 & like many users, out of box storage is limited. I would like to know if there's a custom rom that works well despite being clean, smooth & allows better battery life than the stock JB 4.2.2.
I've tried using Titanium Backup to try removing bloatware like S Health & ChatOn but the list is too long to carry on removing one by one. Not mentioning I do not have much knowledge about android & am worried that if I removed the wrong app, might screw up the phone itself.
Therefore I'm searching for a clean custom rom which is debloated, runs smoothly & give me more battery life out of the device.
I tend to browse the Web, text, watch videos on YouTube & maybe just some games. Any recommendations would be welcomed & please help me by providing more information such as what bloatwares are removed etc as I might still need some of the basic apps.
Regards.
Try the CyanogenMod roms. They are fully clean and pretty fast. Before you flash it ,make a backup of your phone/ rom so you can switch back to it if you don't like it.
--edit: you can find those roms in the official galaxy s4 i9505 development forum.

If you dont wanna loose ALL the samsung/touchwiz features then above is a good option.
If you like stock rom, BUT find its usually just a little to slow/bloated
And also like the ability to flash custom kernel/recovery then the rom's in the link posted above are really nice.
You could do all the things to the your base rom to make it the same as the ones in above posted link, but the 1 file flash via odin is so convenient for most.

I have rooted it finally using the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 ToolKit (I chose TWRP custom recovery as it is touch/button based)
Then I did a full backup of the device using Nandroid TWRP
Then, just to be safe, I also did an EFS backup using EFS Professional.
I am just playing around and installing apps and games before I flash the Revolution HD 9.0 rom.
Thanks for the help!
I am proud to present my first custom rom!
GWiz (Used to be Superskilled) is a ROM that has minor tweaks here and there and some debloating. This is meant to be an basic rom for users to enjoy. The reason its called Gwiz is that because I will be making tons of themes for this in which you may say Gee wiz! No? Okay. Dont expect updates as this is an basic rom really.
Features
-Knox Removed-ish (LP)
-Lightly- Debloated
-Many more
-Very basic as you can see..
Installation
1. Have TWRP or CWM recovery installed (Use T805 recoveries)
2. Download the ROM
3.Backup your stuff in TWRP or CWM
4. Wipe dalvik,data, and caches (AKA Factory reset)
5.Install the ROM
6. Reboot and wait
7. Done?
Contributors-Samsung for making the Tab S
-AndroidGirl for the support and testing the rom
-Rip for testing cfautoroot. Without him then this rom would never be here
-Tkkg1994 For the huge amount of help! WIthout him, I wouldn't make any roms!He taught me everything to get this going.
-ArchiKitchen Made the custom rom process easier
-Mega for hosting my stuff [STRIKE NO LONGER USING MEGA}
-AndroidFileHost for hosting all my files!
-Support from others
- Many many more

N910c user here with the latest 5.1.1 Firmware from SamMobile (N910CXXS2CPK1_N910COLB2COJ5_N910CXXU1COJ5).
Is it good/bad to flash an older ROM? A Custom ROM that based on an older firmware?
The device is currently on stock and rooted.
Mods: Please do delete/move this thread if there is a similar thread or wrong thread section.
Thanks!
Anyone?
Your questions are not easy to answer. It's all personal preference.
Some like ROMS that are as close to stock as possible, some like ROMs that are slim as possible, and don't have all the stock apps and want to install something else. Like a different messenger or launcher or email app.
Some like to have the latest and greatest on the phones or a Custom ROM that is based on another firmware. The problem there is most don't understand that the firmware was never built for their model of phone, so it won't always work right.

Your questions are not easy to answer. It's all personal preference.
Some like ROMS that are as close to stock as possible, some like ROMs that are slim as possible, and don't have all the stock apps and want to install something else. Like a different messenger or launcher or email app.
Some like to have the latest and greatest on the phones or a Custom ROM that is based on another firmware. The problem there is most don't understand that the firmware was never built for their model of phone, so it won't always work right.

Oh... I see your point
Thanks for the answer!
By all means, I just want to debloat my stock n910c using a custom rom like SimplROM but it seems that I am out of the current release.

Just root, download titanium backup and remove all the bloat you dont want. No need to flash custom rom

oh yes I just did that. I just don't have a concrete list of freezable apps for Note 4 so I am leaning on pre-made ROM if possible. I think I'll just do it on my own. Thanks, by the way

SimplROM Lite is about as slim as you can get. SimplROM is pretty good. There's a lot more dependencies then there used to be.
Take is slow and keep doing backups. If something breaks you can go back and bypass what you removed and move on.

If you have a good look on here somebody has posted a list of all bloatware removed from stock rom just be very careful when freezing or removing any apps highlighted in red as they are all the system apps
Great replies! Thanks!
I'll be listing my Titanium Back-up freezed apps here on weekend
Then I'll iterate it for updates as I freeze apps and go on my usual usage
