It seems you have opened this thread in the wrong location....
- For best camera, Flash official TW 5.0.1 firmware....
- After flashing, Root it with CF Autoroot...

What? This is original devolopment thread man!And people scold me for asking about a root method in QandA because "You should have researched first and now...wtf?"
Anyway flash Prism barebone which havr all your demands fullfilled

[Q] RATE YOUR Fav CUSTOM lilipop ROM for (g900f) AND WHY?

hai guys,
Sorry I don’t want to hurt any developer feeling, it is just a poll to know, which the best ROM they like and why.
This pool is for lollipop ROM for G900F only.
thank you.
Note :-
Guys i have forgotten one more rom. Xtrestolite rom - seem a decent rom
i cant figure out to add to the poll
my vote is for S5 LOLLIPOP AMBASADII Rom
-simple installation, and easy to use,
-Best score
-6th Gear TWswipe,
hint of s6
, i tried mostly all rom.
-
only buy i see is wallpaper issue(only if i select wallpaper from home screen else we can select wallpaper). and it give massage updating every time i restart.
note:-
i would like someone to port z4 camera style to S5, or make a flasble zip file so new people who are not so good at installing stuff can install Z4 camera to their s5
I test the Alliance for more than month with stock and ktoonz kernel and after a while I move to ambassadi cuz the rom is laggy randomly then with Ambassadi no issue but nothing special, I also test phoenix and also nothing special and in the end the most stable is the alexander without discussion but stock finally am with the zombie rom it's new feeling and smooth the only issue is battery drain, this is only my opinion and every one can test before, every one have differents so please test every rom to see the developers job and take your time with evry one so you can have an idea

I can't say i have any special favorite rom since most of them are good in their way. But if i still would have to pick one.
My vote goes to Phoenix 6.3 (TW Rom) for ease of use and stability. ?

[Q] Custom ROM, which and why?

Hi, I wanted to try a costum ROM on my note 3 because the official note 3 ROM has a lot of unwanted apps that just fills up my memory.
Looking on the threads, I see a lot of custom ROMs available that doesn't make it easy to start. So my question is which costum ROM do you prefer and why will you recommend me to get that one? Thank you in advanced!!
Just in case, my model is the one on the screen shot
Why don't you start with one where you understand the instructions .

I'd say go for Temasek's CM12.1 AOSP ROM. It's MUCH smaller than any stock Rom, & support is pretty good and it FLIES. I've now posted 2 Antutu scores over 49,000 - and I know benchmark scores are not real life performance but I never got over a 44,000 in any stock ROM.
If you want to stay based in stock, a very good custom ROM is Alliance ROM - think it's at v8.1 now.
HOWEVR, and this applies no mater what ROM you look at... READ, READ, READ... Learn what rooting is, learn about Recovery and why Odin on the PC is necessary. The more you understand about what you are trying to do the less likely you are to be posting back in the Q&A with... "Help! My phone is bricked!"
As you can see I have a exynos Chip so I need a ROM compatible to that.
I had done flashing in the passed when I have my Samsung Galaxy Duos so I have read a bit. But there are soooooooo much ROMs now that I dared to ask the question

Your choice of roms for N900 is limited to these .

ROM suggestion for LG G2 (D802)

Hi, first of all, im getting my phone tomorrow so I havnt tried any ROMs yet. But I am familiar to the whole xda thing thanks to my Galaxy S2. I hope someone can help out
Im looking for a custom ROM that meets the following needs (D802 model):
- great battery life!
- lightweight (dont want it to take too much space since I have the 16GB variant)
- pure performance over looks
- stable, no bugs.
Thats pretty much it, which ROM would u guys think would suit me the best? Oh, and one more question. Whats the difference between "G2 Android Development" and "G2 Android Development (D802)" what goes under the first category then? I have the D802 (Europe) model, so I should be looking under D802 right?
I'll be getting the G2 in a few days too and I will try CM12 and see what LG features are missing and can i live without them.
With my experience with the G2 and some of flashing roms...I advise you to do the following: Get twrp recovery and flash CM12...the LG FlashTool that I used to flash it's a horrific little program...always breaking down! I have now 5.0.2 but if I knew I would get twrp recovery and flashed CM12...
It's an excelent ROM and it's so much easy to flash updates or other roms also...
Thanks for the replies. Can you link me the CM12 rom for D802 model, i couldnt find it myself for some reason.
e: found the CM12 ROM, but it appears that its not bug free?
XenonHD looks very promising, has anyone tried it?

If you want the best battery life use stock 20H.
Its lightweight too, if you purge the unneeded apps.
Its fast, if you dont use stock launcher.
Stable and no bugs.
With root, twrp, xdabbeb camera, adblock, xposed modules and works like a charm, its the best for this device.
Lollipop has some bugs, CM12 a lot of them in daily use.
But if you want more try MIUI V6 by gtbluesky. I love it.
Knife.mstr , thanks for the reply!
What about this one. This seems to be stock 4.4.2 but with bloatware already removed. What do you think of this ROM?
About MIUI...I have to admit, it looks really damn good but for some reason I am afraid to try it How does MIUI effect battery, performance (is it fluid), bugs and so on?

I didnt try it, but can be good.
MIUI 's performance is great. Battery is between stock 20h and 30b. Worst as kitkat but better than stock lollipop. (everything is upon usage)
Only few bugs, like music player drains battery a bit (can be freeze), not every xposed modul can be used.
For me the mipop was hard to use at first, but i liked it. (and can be turned off if you not)
If you run into install bugs, like no sensor or bt or wifi, just return to stock, then reinstall it.
Sometimes 4G dosnt work after update, in this case you need to set in hidden menu *#*#4636#*#* to another network, than return to default, thats fix it.
If you use titanium backup, you can freeze unneded miui apps, like video, or market but use the fun features like deny apps to reach your contacts.

A few thing about threads like this:
These turn into flame wars. Everybody feels their rom is best and will meet your criteria.
Have you searched?
Have you read the features of many different choices?
Have you done your own research on your device?
So here/s the suggestion. read, read, read and then read some more.

Really? Well you should know better than to create such a thread.
Now go out and learn about your new device, as this thread is now closed.

Which stable but speedy and debloated ROM for gf?

Hello everyone,
I personally never owned a Samsung device (always Nexus and mostly with Paranoid Android or Dirty Unicorns ROM) but my girlfriend has one and she defeniately needs it to be flashed :good:
As I am completely new to Samsung devices, I have no idea about all the developers and different ROMs that are out there for the Samsung Note 4 (Snapdragon).
I don't have much time to try around with different ROMs as it isn't my phone.
I need one that is good, stable, fast (and also supports the stylus / samsung apps). So I can flash it quickly and have a happy girlfriend
So that is the reason I an asking in the first place. Else I would just flash around and keep trying until I find the best fit.
I saw CM is officially supporting the Note 4. So that one might be a good solution. But does it have all those stylus samsung stuff?
Any other ROMs I should check out?
Do I need to flash a new radio?
Thanks in advance and sorry for posting another "which ROM" thread. But I can't really test around to find out on my own as it is not my device that I am going to improve !
If n910g, this is highly recommended, although you have to disable or uninstall later all apps that you don't want if you want a debloated rom.

It is N910F.
The link you provided is simply stock android MM?
Yes stock MM, stock is in my experience the most stable and bug free rom build. But the link is for n910g unfortunately.
Stock ROM, and then debloat yourself. Quite honestly speaking, and no offence to anyone, there are no good ROMs available for Note 4. In fact I myself might have not got the phone if I realised the development section is like this. And I am not interested in ported ROMs, so even though there are many available I won't go that way, and I am too dumb to make a ROM for myself, so stock ROM it is.
I agree, stock rom rooted and debloat it, and apply msm tweaks. If you want, xposed as well.

You must flash samsung based rom to have all soen features and samsung apps. I reconnemed kurama rom which in using , its battery friendly, fast and stock based. If you going to flash kurama rom you must flash modem and bootloader for the rom to boot up (only can be flashed from pc with odin)

SM-G900F - Picking up tomorrow, recommend me a ROM!

Hi guys,
Finally upgrading my i9300 after 4 years of constant reflashing, rom and kernel fiddling and lots of fun, but its s5 SM-G900F time.
What I'm looking for:
Stability - I need all barebone stock features to work 100% - Camera, Phone, Cell Data, Wifi, GPS etc, the standard hardware stuff. No crashing and force closing and other problems associated with highly custom roms.
Performance - I'm looking for a performance upgrade over stock
Debloat - A ROM that comes without all the bull****. Stripped down to barebones where I can choose what I want.
Some of my favourites for my s3 have been Slimbean, Archidroid, CM11, and many others over the years that have been focused on my requirements above. I dont need anything fancy and feature packed, just fast, stable and consistent. Preferably lollipop but MM might be ok too, unsure of performance at this point..
I've tried researching but there are really just so many ROMs out there. A couple that have interested me are XtreSto Lite, SlightRom and Sixperiance, but i'm really hoping you guys can steer me in a more focused direction. Hope you can help!
Thanks!
Run a debloat script on the stock ROM for improved battery, performance, and no crapware
Lose camera quality on non TW ROMs too
