Hi,
I am in stock now, but would like to flash a custom rom. But I would like to keep the Moto App for mostly for the gestures. I could just install it from Play Store on a custom ROM, right? Just wanna be sure. thanks!

I'm pretty sure most of the custom ROMS, especially ones based on CM, have most of these features built in anymore. Anyone else feel free to chime in. I only run Slim.

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.
I find it odd that there is not a single GPE Rom with added features or toolkits (like Sense 5 Toolkit for ARHD 22.0 Sense ROM).
Als, none of the GPE ROMs have OTA capabilities. If someone is able to walk me through, I would love to use one of the system dumps or Bigxies stock roms to create an OTA capable GPE ROm. If this is against forum rules, let me know Mods.
Did you look very hard?

One of the best roms in my opinion. There is no ota, but the customazation settings are there with the included gravity box toolkit and the xtheme engine. Check it out.

or you could get the stock gpe rom and get ota....
Probably because we have CM/PA if you want a custom stock Android experience

That would make sense, except that both those roms are having their fair share of camera based issues. I love CM, but cannot stand the mediocre camera performance. I love PA even more, but the camera issues remain.

True, but those AOSP based ones aren't as optimized as the GPe. I would rather take a stable and fast experience over a laggy and customizable experience any day. I love the AOSP ROMs, but the GPe is for those who don't want to be on the bleeding edge.
On a side note, the AOSP support for this device isn't that good either. Compared to my old GS2, there was tons of development going on as far as AOSP goes. That might be due to the fact that TouchWiz was terrible (still is). I am 100% satisfied with my One converted to GPe. Plus, when 4.4 comes out we will get a stable OTA in around 2 weeks (based on previous updates) whereas CM will still be in its unofficial stages by then.
Install the Xposed framework and then gravity box. It brings a lot of customization to GPE.

I'm currently running the latest version of Paranoid SaberDroid and I'm loving how stable it is. Also love the way kitkat looks and runs. I just enjoy flashing roms and and testing them out. See what's different and what not ya know?
PSD seems to have the best features from a ton of different roms, but my question is are there any other kitkat roms that I should try out? Any and all suggestions are welcomed, but they must be able to run on the ls980 or spring variant as that is what I have.
While I'm here, the stock camera on this rom SUCKS. Do you guys have any suggestions on a good camera app that I can flash or get from the play store? Camera Awesome looks like a very good app, buy it costs $4.

Try Smasher X Rom....
Hello,
So I recently got an Nexus 6P and been wondering, should I unlock it? Would if be worth it for the kernel and etc.
(I've had past experience of course, just not sure if worth it on a Nexus device)
Thanks[emoji14]

Thats something you have to decide for yourself.
If you want to root, use other kernels or roms you must do it.
If you are fine with it how it works now dont do it.
But i asked me the same question and i didnt regret to do it.
Im on the Pure Nexus Rom and everything works as smooth as before + a little bit more features.

How is pure Nexus ? Because I'm thinking about it but a family member is saying no point because Stock android is the best and don't need to flash ROMs, etc.

Thats like religion; everybody has his own opinion. Pure Nexus Rom is very near to stock. You can modify a little bit like the statusbar etc. It also included SuperSu for Root Access.
(Maybe other Roms are very good too but i only tried this on 6p.)
You dont NEED to flash a rom, stock is fine too of course.
Nobody can tell you if you should do it or not, thats something you must decide for your own.

Aha, got it[emoji14]
Thanks for that! (Sorry for being newbie[emoji14])
If I do go to unlock bootloader, I'll try a custom kernel Stock firmware is nice for stability and performance at the moment.
Thanks for the help!

No problem,
but if you are really new in the root/flash/modify etc. scene, i can only give you the advise to read a lot about kernels.
Because flashing a Kernel modifies stability and performance more than the rom.
(Please all kernel-fans, dont hit me for my next sentence )
I dont use a costum kernel on the 6p because im not convinced that it will be so much better than the orginal, its smooth as **** and my battery life is absolutly great. So there is for ME no reason to flash a kernel.

I see you point and I've been in the flashing/rooting scene for a few years now.
Good point.
Wow, that's good if your battery life is great and performance is good, on par with mine.
I'm sure all kernel fans won't hit you

Hi guys,
I'm currently torn between PureNexus and Nougat 7.1. Currently I'm stock, unrooted with bootloader locked. Basically as good as factory piece.
I had made my mind up to flash PureNexus, then I read about Google releasing DP of 7.1 to N6P.
I'm not able to decide on either of these now.
Would there be any noticeable changes from 7.0 to 7.1 or would you go on and flash PureNexus!!!???

I'll tell you the truth,, there is nothing special about PureNexus nougat rom...i Flashed PN, used it for 1 day and went back to stock nougat + franco's kernel.
I found the google apps works better on stock than the AOSP apps on PureNexus.
The "life" of one battery cycle isn't too much different between those two...
About dp 7.1 , I ain't sure that there is some one who can answer your question about it, there is no any specific info about that... all you can do is flash the DP when it'll roll out and than decide - keep it or not.
Best regards,

He means the Google apps run better on stock. In other words the "Gapps" and I noticed it too. Apps don't install as fast from the play store. Don't get me wrong pn is a great rom. I'll probably use it instead of stock some day. But rn. There is too many new updates coming to the Nexus device. One of the main reasons to have a nexus is to have all the latest versions and features earlier. That's wasted with pn. Maybe after 7.1 is on stable and Pn is on a stable version of 7.1 I'll switch. But right now . I'm on 7.1

The AOSP based phone app for example is old compared to google markets one, keeping both make no sense , freeze the AOSP phone app will broke the whole calling "system".
The overall experience on stock apps vs AOSP version is much better, nothing missing, fully functional, if u don't like something you can just disable it with no issues (of freeze with TB)
I never liked the AOSP based Roms, there is always something old and undone... You can bring the same results of battery life of stock , just change kernel, freeze some apps and disable some services and you're ready to go.
The best way to choose is to try them both, than decide what's better for you.

Ahh I see what you mean. Yeah aosp apps tend to be outdated. On PN I flash OpenGapps and get rid of everything AOSP app wise.
