[Q] I9500 / I9505: MHL-HDMI works the same?

Hi,
I'm currently running Samsung-stock based 4.2.2 ROM on my S4 I9500...
And I've got Samsung SmartDock for my I9500 that is hooked up with LCD Screen and Mice+keyboard and works just fine!
1. I'm thinking to try out CM11 for I9500 and I wonder if it worth it? does MHL-HDMI adapters work with it?
2. or I'm gonna lose my SmartDock support for my device on top of AOSP based rom?
3. and more than that, does the I9505 / I9505G support the MHL-HDMI and Samsung's official SMART DOCK ?

I'll be happy to know, before I'll waste some time on CM, so if someone could answer my questions, that would be nice.
Thanks

Nobody knows? I9505 and Google Play edition users - please comment if your devices are working good with HDMI/ MHL Adapters...

Chinese Note 3 forum

Found this through the OGP thread. The AT&T OGP (E980) was able to flash stock based ROMs for the F24X variants if we flashed the stock 4.4 kernel. Since we can't really touch the kernel on the Note 3, we may be able to use what they have over on sonyue. Worth a shot and I'll probably try it myself if I ever feel the need to switch from DynamicKat (highly unlikely).

Help with custom roms and galaxy gear

Hey guys, A new note 3 user here.
I have a Samsung Galaxy SM-N900 as seen in my signature, As per my understanding its an exynos note 3 i guess. There are a few things i wanted to ask
1. Is there a custom rom which is more fluid and bloatware free than the stock one, i previously used Dr. Ketan's rom in my other note 3 and i was impressed with it. How is the MIUI one? Will i be able to connect my gear after installing a custom rom?
2. I checked out and found out that the exynos version doesn't have CM, paranoid android, AOKP and the likes. Do they exist for this phone? Or they don't due to the exynos chip?
3. I am unable to connect my gear using the Android wear app. Any solutions
Thanks for your help

First of all, get your information suited up...
If you are using a Galaxy gear(TIZEN OS), you will be able to connect it to every device you want, BUT; only with samsung firmware you will have full function(For example; Samsung apps, mediacontroller, s health etc), the clock is the most you will get . The galaxy gear doesn't work on android wear, it works on the samsung app...
If you have a gear live, Can't say much cause I don't use android wear yet, BUT: wrong choice buddy, you should have gone for the Moto 360

Galaxy Tab 4.0 7" Newbie Question

Hi all.
I own the T230 Samsung Tab 7.0 in the UK. I keep reading about how Samsungs software slows this tablet down. Im a little lost on what to do, but can you just put normal android on this to speed it up? I keep hearing about custom roms, but basically I just want to strip the rubbish out of this and speed the thing up.
Can Lollipop be put on this?
My build number is KOT49H.T230XXU0AOD2, if this helps.
Thanks so much......from the Newbie!

Galaxy Tab 4.0 7" Newbie Question
Mostly every variant of the Tab 4 should have L by now, including yours but idk if it's available in your region. We have a user here who made a Samsung firmware thread (@thisusernameisapoorchoice), so look around that thread.

To clean out the preinstalled Samsung junk you'll need to root your phone, which means flashing a recovery module (e.g. TWRP, Clockwork Mod, etc.). Fortunately, this shouldn't interfere with the stock firmware.
Alternatively, I think the development section has a rom that's just debloated version of the stock firmware. One of the most common ways to make a custom rom is to just strip the bloatware from the stock image, and apply updates.

Compatible tab 4 7" custom rom

Hi guys
Iv got a tab 4 as a gift running kitkat 4.4.2
I would like to install a custom rom as it looks very old and cranky, even though its only a 2014 tablet (why the hell samsung didn't update this I'll never know)
Iv installed Twrp,
I see there seems to be a limited number of roms for this device, any advice would be great.
I was looking at the moonlight rom. Apparently it works with the tab 4 WiFi.
Thanks for your time.

I am looking for a ROM for this device, too. And I didn't find any ROM that is worth rooting my tablet and installing TWRP and things like that... All those ROMs are based on the same system, same android version, except for apps and some theming mods... I don't know why don't they just try to make an AOSP nougat ROM for this device, or porting a TW lollipop ROM to our tablet.

I have Samsung tab 4 Sm-t239 I want to install marshmallow.....presently tab is having android kit kat 4.4.4.....can anybody help
Thanks in advance
