You have two choices, both based on stock 4.4.2 (but both are vast improvements over actual stock):
Acheron Rom
Or Prism Barebone
There's been some chatter about building cyanogenmod for your device, but I certainly wouldn't hold my breath if I were you, if it happens it won't be soon. Good luck. I also have a collection of Tab 4 Odin files in case you mess up (hopefully not)

no cm for tab 4 7.0?

I see you are running cm12 on your tab but it's not supported on the 7.0" strange. Anyways do the Lollipop custom roms have any memory leak issues like the official builds do? That's why i returned my Lollipop 5.0 cause i could'nt update it any higher and the apps kept crashing(this was on a nextbook tab though).

I have loved CM12 ever since it became stable on this device. Before that CM11 was an awesome ROM too on this tablet. I didn't have any problems other than I had to change around the settings before I saw the battery life I wanted. I certainly haven't experienced any memory leak issues. Yeah unfortunately there's no cm yet for the 7 inch (different chipset) but I'm pretty sure a couple of people are working on cm11

not only number is changed. I'm using custom Paranoid ROM on my Galaxy tab 7.7. It has better performance and looks nicer ) User interface veery smoth
well, i must admit that the software experience improved a lot (its a huge improvement) from honeycomb to ics.
i dont think that it will be the same from ics to JB, or the 4.1.2

Well, FWIW ICS to JB (4.1.2 or 4.2.2) on my other tabs makes a marked improvement in the overall speed and fluidity of the tabs. Whether or not the same will hold true when (or if) the 7.7 gets stock 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 remains to be seen.
is there anyone of you that still uses stock firmware like me? tried PA but have to revert back to stock ics despite the brick bug danger
If you mean stock as in from samsung, yes, I have it on my tab but I am using a different launcher though to speed things up.

The "BrickBug" has had me spooked also. But, after reading as much as I could from other sources, flashing CWM alleviates that issue. That said I still would shy away from Factory Reset from ICS nevertheless. Or proceed with caution.
Granted I could be wrong but am always on the lookout for a definitive "fix".

so true..but i still encountered some soft bricks randomly when many apps were installed..for instance when i used the offline feature of Google Currents..my tab won't flash via odin so i have to reset using cwm many times..
do you think the new jelly bean firmware is free from brick bug?

One hopes so. But I'll always include CWM/kernel substitution. I'll deal with soft brick any day of the week compared to hard brick. Even jtag has failed for some.

Me too I use a stock firmware or if I use a custom firmware, I always replace the custom "safe kernel" with the stock kernel from Samsung.
Sorry to repeat it again, but I never got any issues with Samsung stock kernel whether with my G-Note or my GT P6800.
The sole time I got a brickbug was with a custom firmware on my G-Note as I forgot to replace the custom "safe kernel (from PhilZ)" with a Samsung stock one... ^^
Once my G-Note got repaired, I reflashed it with the same ICS custom firmware but that time with a stock kernel and I never got brickbug again, despite numerous Factory Resets.
My G-Note has now a completely stock Jelly Bean 4.1.2 from Samsung and so far so good no issue at all !!!
My GT P6800 is still with a stock ICS 4.0.4 from Samsung and I don't plan to use any custom firmware since it works fine with a very good battery life time.
The only change I made both on my G-Note or P6800 was to root them.

Pretty close to the same here. Am under the distinct impression that rooting and using CWM also offers as much "protection" from brickbug as can be had at the moment. Running LQ1 right now but was considering flashing LQ2. Looking for a bit better battery.
Been following daniel_hk in the Android section. His work on the JB CM10.1 looks very very promising! Check it out!
Arobase40 said:
Sorry for daniel_hk or any other Cyanogen devs I'm not willing to flash any Cyanogen ROM as I want to keep compatibility with all stock Touchwiz apps and features, and more importantly I don't want to mess up my GT 7.7 as I don't plan to change it for another device as long as it suffices my needs.

I 100% agree with you, CM might be the latest and greatest of all Roms but in my opinion if all the features are not working as they should why should I even bother. I know it's a choice whether to install or not and I appreciate what the CM devs have done for our community but I just don't like how they have approached our tab, if you are not going to have a 100% working rom then don't put it out there.:banghead: Sorry for my little rant. I am just patiently waiting for JB if it ever comes out if not I am quite happy with ICS.

So I just got my 10.1 for Christmas (AWESOME wife!!) and noticed that it lags pretty bad on the stock TW. Is this normal and reason for me to root immediately?
Also happy that this is the perfect partner for my Note2

Don't want to thread jack, but I am in the same boat as you (awesome cousin /,,/) and the lagging is more than I expected it would. Curious to know if updating to 4.1.1 would be better or maybe a lite ROM without all the bloatware until the final version of 4.1.1 firmware is released by Samsung.
Merry Christmas!

In reply to both, i have galaxy tab 2 7.0, and found 4.0.4 lagged terribly. Fortunately i found the stock jelly Bean Samsung ROM on sammobile, and have never looked back.
The ROM is out for 10.1.......upgrade and decide for yourselves
I read multiple reviews but didn't believe it until I got my hands on it. Will start rooting it tonite.

The stock JB ROM is as good or better than anything out there. No need to root unless you have a reason. Rooting will prevent your getting future OTA updates. Removing so called bloat (one man's bloat is another's useful app) doesn't speed up anything. That's a placebo leftover from OG phones when they had precious little memory.
Non of the non-stock ROMs retain full function depending which model you have. For instance, CM10 loses IR blaster and may cause bluetooth issues. I recommend the stock JB, its great, although I never found the 4.0.4 ICS ROM to have much lag at all.

No. You could wait untill Samsung decides to push an OTA update. I don't know when that is going to happen for your country.
At the moment only Hong Kong, Taiwan and the United Kingdom received 4.1.1.

got it thx. I have a p5113 so I don't believe I can use this.
i got mine xmas too and soon as it found a network it asked to update. being a long time android user i fell into old practices of never updating till i was sure it was safe to do if i wanted to root etc. from what ive been reading it doesnt seem to be a lot of advantages to doing so

I had try almost all ROM for GTab 2 7 and believe me the stable version is Stock ICS 4.0.4
The JB 4.1.1 UI looks ugly to me and lag when in the transition from apps drawer to home screen. In ICS 4.0.4 everything smooth and fluid. I tried several custom ROM like CM10, CM9, KWBR, AOKP etc but the UI doesn't seems to please me.
So now I flash to Malaysia ICS 4.0.4 ROM, rooted and happy with that. Looking forward for JB 4.1.2 to resolve the lag issue.

You know what helps with "lagginess" ???
Not expecting a tablet to have instantaneous response with its little bitty CPU and small RAM. People should have realistic expectations for a $200 device.

What it needs is a custom kernel, but unfortunatelly there isn't one available yet for stock Jb rom, at least not for 10.1.
Or is there?
to help with the lag on the stock rom ( or any rom) you can change the windows and transition animations scale to .5x ...
under SETTINGS...DEVELOPER OPTIONS ...
Thanks, it does seem to make it little more responsive, but still not smooth.

Welcome to the note 3 forums. We welcome you as long as you do your job and search before making 1,000,000 new threads.
So,You just got your shiny new note 3 and dont know where to begin?
Well that's ok because, this is the all in one thread.
Lets begin​
How do I Root?
That is the common question around here. Im going to simplify this.. Here you go
For 4.3
1.The best and safest way is this method by @evilpotatoman. It does require a little work but in return you do get root Here is the link for That,
2.Another method that is faster, but does not offer busybox with install, nor did it originate from XDA-forums is Here,
For 4.4 Or KitKat
You have to Go to My thread located
Here,
This does root KitKat and provides a custom ROM.
How Do I Install Custom Rom's
First What you should know is that our phone has a locked bootloader. This means that we can not boot kernels. But we still can flash custom rom's Thanks to @Hashcode
To install custom rom's on 4.3, Head over Here,
Another method That i originally created, but does not work as good as safestrap, could be found Here
If you are on KitKat, Then you could either install my KitKat rom or wait for safestrap to be updated.
What Do I Do If I Bricked My Phone? Or if it wont boot?
Well There are 2 methods to get you back to stock and running again.
To Restore back to Jellybean (4.3) Follow this Thread Here
To Restore back to KitKat (4.4.2) Follow this Thread Here
Why are Rom's Based off different Bases & Whats the difference?
A little basic intro
MJ5,MI9 & MI1 Are all 4.3 AT&T Bases
Ml2 Is an international 4.3 Base
MlG is a leaked AT&T 4.4.2 Base
Mj5 Is the latest 4.3 AT&T Base
Ml2 Is the latest international Base
The difference depends on what you need. Right now There are pro's and con's to all bases
Mj5
-Fast Data speeds
-Better indoor Signal
-No Bluetooth internet tethering
Ml2
-NO group messaging
-lower signal in areas
-slower data
-Does have Bluetooth internet tethering
Leaked Kitkat base (MIG)
-Extremely fast
-Newer modem with better signal & speeds
-Safestrap is not yet updated to work with kitkat (But you could still install my 4.4 ROM)
Why is my GPS Crappy and How do i fix it?
This issue is well known with our phone. The main reason is bad software coding.
To fix this issue Flash this fix made by me, in safestrap or manually push the files using root explorer.
4.3-Click Here
4.4-(Coming Soon)
What is "SafeStrap & Why do i have to use it?
Safestrap is our main method of flashing Rom's and could be found Here,
Always WIPE before flashing a new ROM or expect to receive errors. DON'T BE LAZY
Issues with safestrap
-Sometimes the storage is messed up and shows that you are using all your memory, when you really are not.If you use a different app to check, then you should see your real memory usage.
Where are all the kernels located?
Like i stated earlier, We don't have kernels yet, because of our locked bootloader
Where are all the Roms compatible with my phone?
All compatible and ready to install rom's could be found Here
There is currently NO AOSP,CM Based Rom's, So don't ask
What is KNOX and how does it effect me?
KNOX is basically made to **** us. But Samsung calls it security.
KNOX is removed from most custom Rom's. Knox does prevent root apps from working properly and should be removed asap.
How do I transfer My bookmarks from ROM to ROM?
Follow the guide i created Here
Im still working on a list of roms,and cool mods that are compatible with our phone. they will be located in the second post.Mods please sticky this thread​
For me, to post mods and roms compatible with our phone
one more
Great information.
Thank you very much.
I have tried your KitKat 4.4.2. Glad to see it is rooted!
Now, it is easy to switch between MJ5 4.3 and MLG 4.4.2 through SafeStrap and Odin.
Wow very nice! Hopefully this will prove helpful.

Awesome work. Me personally Im waiting for SS to be updated but definitely keeping an eye out.
Im curious on one thing. When you discuss Knox and to 'remove it', would freezing this via TB server the same purpose? Also since youve had a go with 4.4, does Samsungs iteration of 4.4 still have the GPS issues or did they fix it? Just curious
Thanks!

Wanting to down grade back to JB rom from KITKAT v2
I Used to be on JB rom 4.3 And I really liked it. But I wanted to upgrade to to KitKat v2 because alot of people said they liked it. After I upgraded to KITKAT 4.4.2 I really did not enjoy it as much JB 2.6. I used to get 35000 score from Antutu Benchmark but now on V2 I get about 30000 score. And I thought the JB 2.6 was setup nicer. I dunno, but what I do know is that I would like to go back to JB 2.6 because I think it was a nicer piece of work. Anyone know where I can find the tutorial to downgrade back to JB 2.6? I thought I seen it before but I cant seem to find it. Thank you for your time.

[Q] Custom Rom for SM-G900H

Not sure if this is in the right section. I used a non lte S4 and there was obviously a lot less custom roms available then for the lte model. I am now using the S5. I see there is a couple of custom roms for the SM-G900F, but there is currently no custom roms for the SM-G900H or am I looking in the wrong section when I look here..http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development, if not, is somebody busy with a custom rom for the SM-G900H? There are very talented guys designing roms on here and I hope they make their way to the SM-G900H side.

be patience dude,the dev will work on our model,just stay tune
Just glad to hear there is hope... Can't wait.....
as there are more countries adopting LTE, there are less markets adopting the exynos version of the GS5. therefore less developers. Hopefully developers even those from LTE-running countries make rome for the exynos version. :fingers-crossed:

Nah, really I feel that nowadays if you root and use xposed you will find almost all the things you used to look for in a rom.
And you can debloat yourself using Titanium Backup or greenify donate.
That's at least in my case, there's even an xposed module to remove the s connect shortcut in the notification bar, the only modification I did directly on the apk.
So for now, there's not a huge need for a custom rom, 98% of the tuneup scripts are bs. And most tweaks are already in wanam xposed or app settings.

Don't believe any promises in that thread...
Yea not into trusting that thread either lol. I am rooted and use wannam and to be honest i am quite happy with it so far. I also use the phone for lots of training, so I use Endomondo sports tracker and the heart rate ANT etc and the battery life is phenominal. I am not sure I would want to run a custom rom that is going to have bugs etc. I stock standard with a few speed tweaks and debloated might do the trick but I guess we will have to wait and see if anyone has the guts to build for this model ??
I waiting for rom galaxy s5 g900h
Hi everyone ,
i installed Recovery for my G900h, but i still waiting for dev make a new ROM for G900H exynos, :good:
never test a rom G900F or else you risked your phone fallen break​:crying:
Sorry bro, can't read your post, the text it's too small.
After having rooted for weeks and used greenify, titanium backup and xposed framework I still don't see any need of a custom rom (same experience I had with my Nexus 5 - stock rooted with franco).
Custom kernel is a different story, just changing a couple of things makes a good difference in standby consumption (sec-battery-monitor, wlan_rx_wake and l2_hsic wakelocks).

Where at all is Andreilinux? He is the one who did it for the s4 octa, so whats special for the s5 version that hardly anybody shows any interest in it?
I want to ask that I am very much interested in making a custom rom for this device. But the problem is that I have no past experience.. So how tough a job it is, to make a rom for exynos devices if I haven't made any rom in the past?

The problem is not that its hard to make a rom for exynos or anything special about s5.... I guess its that hardly anyone and no devs have the device. Supporting and building for a device that you dont own is just not sensible.

any progress about custom rom of sm-g900h? we need cm
Hey guys, I recently rooted my galaxy s5 model SM-G900H and it is still running the stock rom.
I tried using my Allshare cast wireless dongle and when it connects after a second it disconnects and the phone says
hardware problem. Any way to work around this? I downloaded triangle away and my flash counter is at 3. I tried resetting the flash counter but it is not working. Any help will really be appreciated as I am in Africa and I really need the screen mirroring to implement some community projects. Thank you all

I'm OK now, I'm happy to have waited this long for an AOSP ROM.
I can wait longer if it becomes a L ROM for our G3!!
Great news !
it's hard to say...i'm working on a lollypop port since weeks now and the main problem is a kernel panic related to the modem resetting.. i think that once i will figure out how to solve it i will be able to release a first beta
It is usually very hard to get new android versions ported to a device where there is no official rom of the same version for it - you basically are going in blind trying to get all the hardware to work.
If we are lucky we might see one or two builds before LG release theirs (which is now less than 2 months away!) but I would expect them to be buggy with some hardware not working - so far we don't even have a fully working Kitkat AOSP build for our device.

bah, who needs the LG Lollipop rom? probably gonna have their own skin again which, in my opinion, is inferior to stock lollipop. plus, if you have not read, Android 5.0 Lollipop gives developers the option to completely lockdown devices and prevent root, specifically in our devices where bootloader is not unlockable. Don't think I'll take the risk though. It's a huge one!

this is true although (and i may well be wrong) i would presume this would only apply if you take the update from OEM and not custom rom .... if we take a flashable custom rom i would assume that this lockdown is completely irrelevant and fairly risk free providing the devs can get all the hardware side of things up and running
ah yes, you are right. personally though i would prefer to go straight to stock rom after rooting. not really sure what the difference is (if any big changes) between a rooted and non-rooted stock rom

that all depends what you want to be able to do on your device ..... without root you cannot use xposed (although until made to run on ART it wont work with lollipop onwards ) ... you need root to delete / modify any / all system apps and other tweaks under the hood ..... there are many things you could need root for

Root alone does nothing. It's what you do with the elevated privileges that matters. With root access, you pretty much have complete control over the phone's software, so you can do next to nothing, or completely overhaul everything to the point where it is indistinguishable from a stock, non-modified phone.
By the way... If LG isn't blowing smoke up our backsides, we'll have a working Optimus UI w/ 5.0.. guessing 6 weeks, give or take. And it remains to be seen how quickly they release their sources. Until those sources are released, any 5.0 custom ROMs are going to be Lollipop on top of LG's KK stuff (kernel, radio/modem, graphics drivers, etc). Not sure how stable that will all be. My only experience with a phone running a ROM like that was running early KK builds on my old Galaxy S3, which was Android 4.4 built on top of Samsung's Jelly Bean stuff. And that was buggy as hell, tons of problems. Basic stuff, like every time it switched from Wi-Fi to mobile data, I got a kernel panic and it would reboot.
So I would be wary of any LP ROMs for the G3 that didn't include the native LP stuff from LG.

OEM Unlock feature in Lollipop dev options
Lollipop has an OEM Unlock feature in the development options. Chainfire already utilized it to root the N9. See attached.
so excited in looking forward to your effort - friends....
