Will be shortly - CM9, and kernel and battery optimisations FTW
I'm reading a lot of info on how to make my own roms. Very interested in building a lightweight/fast rom for the Note.

Great!!!! Exactly what I would like to put on my note. I'm sure this will be very popular.
Thanks

It will be interesting to see what you do.
That was easy - no!

If you could share a few links - that would be lovely. I have plenty of time these days and some relevant background too. It should not be that difficult to port CM7, for example.
I'm also getting a bit frustrated, reaaly. 1)There's not going to be an ICS OTA update for at least 4 months - no matter what a Samsung rep said somewhere - no OEM has ever managed a version upgrade in less than that. 2) Half of all the 'development' with the Note comes from a person, who's 12 years old and, frankly, with all due respect, has better and more useful thing to do with his/her time. Well, not that I don't, but at least I can excercise better judgement as to priritizing my commitments;-)
I have a feeling this may be a stupid question but I REEEEAAALLLY want to get OmniROM, looks soooo awesome!

I totally agree. I wonder who has info on this.
One of the major criteria for a device to have official omni rom is to have a dedicated device maintainer.. so if u have a dedicated developer who can participate ..... omni is open source ...

Yup. In the early days of omni, some guys were working on the d2 family, but I don't think I've seen any recent activity there.
I have been eagerly waiting for Omni Rom for the loving d2att devices. Have been requesting different devices for building something for our device, till date no success.
Hope someone stand up and do something for our device

i have seen that there's no development of roms for canadian LG V20/G5 .... why is itlike that, in that way we canadians are stuck with the sdevice as it isand have nothing new to try out.

Does your device have an unlocked bootloader? It would answer your question.

Does the H915 have an unlocked bootloader? I can't see any evidence that it does. If not, that's why there aren't any ROMs.
It's considered bad manners to ask for ETAs for development.
You'd have to check at the G5 forum to find out about that phone.

Dude what do you need a rom for on the V20? Is there something in particular you see in any of the few roms out for the V20 right now that you think you're missing?
Should have bought a nexus if you wanted lots of development. I don't care about having root or roms on this phone. It has great features that I'm enjoying quite nicely.

I don't know if you've been to the development section of this forum or not, but if you'd notice, all of the ROMs that are available for the H918 are simply variants of the stock ROM. And if the V10's example carries over to the V20, the second screen will make ASOP ROMs difficult to develop.
I can root my phone and frankly, I don't see anything developed to date that makes it a worthwhile endeavor. There's no Xposed yet for Nougat. About all you can do with root now is Adaway, Viper and getting the Pixel version of Assistant.
You need to be able to unlock your bootloader before you can worry about ROMs. Your phone ain't there.

I'm sorry. He's got all of nine posts and he shot most of that wad here.
I dunno about you. I've been at this for about eight years now. Back in the day, all of that kinda mattered. But today, as then, most custom ROMs will give you more headaches than any benefit you might think you'll see. You can customize a whole lot better with stuff out of the Play Store.

how about double tap to sleep/wake screen on third party launchers like pixel launcher
thats about the only mod id like to see lol outside of custom recovery on my vzw lg v20
other than that an extreme syndicate rom with all LG removed and abase google experience with a ROM the size of ~300mb (Extreme Syndicate) would be first on LG and I make my roms the leanest meanest any phone can ever see lol
Ppl use xtrestolite on samsung but even that rom was more mb than my rom.. mine is the lightest Samsung rom there was (of course xtrestolite was my inspiration but they took the "extreme" name from me)
i cant wait until hopefully we get a BL unlock for non tmo devices.. i remove the most non sense crap but pack in the most used mods in my roms.. once my rom is set i plan to theme it.. geared towards extreme syndicate style (venom inspired black and white battery saving master theme lol)
once i have a unlocked BL (were working on it) I hope we can work together as I'd rather not spend time on theming as much as I want to spend time ROMing..
You're themes are awesome, i love the red n black but Venom I hope once things are going we can make a one of a kind ROM and custome THEME only available on Extreme Syndicate

I won't begin to deny that theming and ROMing aren't a good thing... for some people. Those "some people" would be those who have at least a curiosity as to how their phones work, those that can follow basic directions and those willing to live with the glitches caused by the marriage of features from different hardware platforms without the proper software support.
Often these issues work themselves out. But end consumers often forget that the developers here aren't full time, that they're juggling a hobby that hardly pays for a six pack of beer with family, jobs, and other commitments.
Nor would I discourage someone from trying. But I would be remiss if I didn't point out that the learning curve is fairly steep, and that there will be hours and hours of aggravation and the occasional moments of sheer terror when you think you just f'd up a $1000 phone... all for the payoff of a device that may not work as well as it did before you started messing with it.
So, I am a little frustrated, and I am sure this has been answered but I cant seem to find the answer.(at least not one that makes sense anyway) . Why on earth are all the custom roms made for European variants of our beloved cell phones? I have spent tireless hours combing through the hundreds of youtube videos, and dozens of forum posts, to only find one single Custom ROM that works correctly for the Galaxy on5 SM-G550T1. (Thank you to czarsuperstar for giving us The Superstarz Rom, You did it right and finished the job.)
I know I am a noob and all and I definitely am no DEV, but could someone please help me and explain this to me like I am a 2 year old. Why is there no US variants of custom mods? Now I have looked up several different phones but to no avail, unless you own a samsung NOTE or S series your just out of luck. And NO, a rom that has no sound is NOT complete, just sayin.
I know that building one of these custom roms is not an easy task, god knows my dumb ass couldnt do it, but if your going to build something, please finish the job, I mean I would never give you a house I built, that was short a roof.
Signed,
Frustrated

No worries bro I've been porting a rom just for our g550t1 give me little bit because my job barely have time but it will get done. Also I still need to ask for permission befor posting. Just want to make sure everything is right
That is awesome! I really enjoy my on5 and I would really hate to have to buy a different phone. I know it is not high end but it has become part of who i am, so much that I bought a second one for myself just in case some tragedy were to happen to my beloved On5. I am looking forward to your work and hope to further my experience as, what I call myself, a tech geek in training. maybe someday I will be able to build a rom and repay all the ones who have helped me in my journey. I aspire to be half as smart as those of you who do build custom roms. Thank you for the work you are doing and I cannot wait to see what you have in store
Yeah this is the first phone i ever rooted, only new to this bout 2 months. But it is sad that i cant find a sweet ROM for G550T1 mPCS. But it seems that whoever can Master this model will be shiznit. But dying to get rid of this stock ROM.

Well since I posted this there has very little help in the way of getting a ROM made or even ported one for the G550T1, So I figured I would take upon myself to educate myself in the ways of the force. It hasnt been easy but I think I may be close to having an actually working ROM, That has sound and everything, imagine that, sound. Its only taken me what 2 months to gain headway. So, bro keep your head up there may be light at the end of the tunnel yet.

Great news good to see some development may start soon hopefully.
It's been available for a while, as you can see the most recent commit is in March. However, the source tree is not completed. It's one of the reasons for the lack of development.

As long as the kernel can boot the phone we can use it as a starting point, right? Also 3rd party ROM can use stock kernel extracted from MIUI.

That, along with some other reasons, is why till now there is no rom.
would there be someone who would be able to make a custom rom from the kernel
if there is a person who makes you i would be very grateful
is there a possibility that it looks as much like stock Android as possible?
because miui bug a lot
and it's an interface

Devs have lives too, and this is just the thing they do in their free time, so they work at their own pace. Not every devs want to report everything, nor do they have to.
Things will get released when they are ready. Rushing the devs will just increase the chance that they will abandon everything.

What's the problem with that then? They don't work for you or me, they don't have any responsibility to develop the rom. They don't ask you to wait for the news, they don't ask you to risk damaging your phone. You have to take responsibility for your decisions, don't you?

no you didn't understand I know that developing it takes time I am the developer of the craftdium.ml software if you know and I know very well that it takes time I wanted to know if I am making the custom rom my phone risks what?
Personally, I don't like MIUI, nor MIUI based Roms: eu, ROS, mix, etc.
I think it's worth to wait a while, even one month, for install a decent AOSP based ROM on this brilliant hardware. I made that on my Mi Max 3 and I am very happy now with the phone.
