[q] non-aosp roms - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hello XDA. I have a Sprint Galaxy S4 with CyanogenMod 11 and love it. However I want something different. I need a ROM that isn't AOSP based or based on TouchWiz. All I could find were MIUI V5 which I have tried also and Ubuntu Touch which is cool but a lot of things are not working. I need a different ROM from the rest and doesn't have a lot of bugs. Is there anything that isn't Android or something that is but looks WAY different? :cyclops:

[Q] Stupid Question.

I have a stupid question. I have tried to search but apparently I am not using the right keywords. I barely post, and when I do it's only when I can not actually find the answer myself. So hopefully you can bare with me and keep the flaming to a minimum.
I have been looking for a custom rom. There are a few that I have wanted to check out, however I actually do like and use the samsung camera features like drama shot, etc.
Is there a cm or aosp based rom that someone could recommend that offers those camera features? Or basically am I stuck just debloating my stock rom if I want to keep them? Not that I find too much actually wrong with the stock rom, I was just looking to play around and try out some of the different projects out there.
Thanks for the help guys in advance. I hope I was clear enough in what I am looking for.

You have to flash a TW based rom.

Are you saying there is a touchwiz based (debloated) rom that has the AOSP overlay and features. I've been using slim rom (love it) but was thinking. Couldnt you theoretically have a TW based ROM and have the AOSP ontop of it. I love the look of AOSP way more than touch wiz.

Your best bet is to go with a debloated Touchwiz-based ROM based on the much more up to date International firmware. Goldeneye 4.0 is the way to go for me.
You can even install MODs like the xposed framework/nolimit that all you to really customize the look of your phone.

[Q] S4 Features on Original Android

Hi All,
Sorry if this has been asked before. But I am not able to get a post that answers this.
I just want to know if the standard features of S4 (Air View, Air Gesture etc.) will work on a custom rom like CM, PAC (The original Android Development Roms) ?
I have tried and tested these Roms and they are much more convenient than the TouchWiz Roms.
Anyone has some advise?
Thank You!
not working, because there is not a driver that can use. I believe that infrared is the only one that could works.

You could try the below app, probably as close as you'll get until someone properly ports real the air view/gesture stuff.

If you flash any AOSP rom, youll loose all of the features.
Thanx guys.
Yes, I saw when installing any AOSP like Rom those features doesn't exist anymore. I guess that is part of the sacrifice we need to make in order to use all the other features in CM and AOSP.
Using Omega v13 at this stage and I am very satisfied. But I am addicted to modifying my phone with better, faster and newer stuff. So these AOSP roms give me a much more Original experience and I am loving it!
Thanx for all your assistance!

No, there is no stable version yet. However, you can try out the nightlys. Download them from here:
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hlte
You should try temasek's unofficial cm11 build...instruction and discussion here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2687074
There's plenty of stable(ish) custom cm based ROMs that should suit your needs.

[Q] How can I flash Stock Android on my Note 3?

I really hate TouchWiz and after looking into X-Note I'm still not on that bandwagon. So what ROM should I be looking for, for stock Android? I would say CyanogenMod but idk if that has a stable Note 3 build. I could be wrong though so thats why I'm reaching out to the XDA Community. Thanks.

To flash stock android download stock firmware and flash using odin
If I understand you correctly, you want something aosp'ish, more like the google experience? Im not too fond of touchwiz either so I'm running carbon ROM and I think its pretty stable.. They do have cm nightlife though and I think they're fairly stable.

Other's are just make-up to stock ROM. Lol i can do it with many tweaks. I want smooth & pure android experience on my phone. Was looked at for CM or other AOSP ROM's but found none. Used AOSP based ROM's on my every Android phone, low-range, mid-range (Galaxy 551,I9100,I9300) And that ROM was definetly better than stock rom. I want it again but seems like no-one intrested about it. :/

Can you find anything?
Some guys are trying to port CM11 to SM-N900 but there is no news until Oct. 30
It is too bad to have Exynos.
