Which Rom is good for s4 I9505 and without problems - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Plz guys help to find good Rom for my S4 without more problems

you should say more about what you're looking for in a rom. do you want Samsung features and touchwiz or a pure Android AOSP or something more modified like cyanogenmod ?
only a Samsung based rom will give you full features in the camera or MHL support. AOSP and CM will be usually faster and give more free internal space. no rom is going to be perfect though as that is also a measure of personal preference and custom roms often have tiny bugs in them.
usually talk of which rom is the best is discouraged here, we are urged to try some for ourselves and make our own choice...

Stock and Unrooted is the best...

Soufwinn is asking for good rom without more problem.
Only stock and unrooted firmware have no problem.

Lol. Seriously?
What harm does root access and debloated roms do?
It is like blaming the gun and not the person who pulled the trigger when someone is killed. :/
And FYI due to the heavy amounts of bloatware and other unwanted stuff, the performance is slow in stock roms and also not all of them are stable.

Just stay on debloated stock ROMs with stock or close-to-stock kernel. That's it.

Roms for old bootloader ?

Anything recent? no AOSP Roms please.
Are there any touchwiz 4.4.2 roms made specifically for users of the old bootloader?

I recommend this one, based on stock TW 4.4.2, works on the old boot loader no problem. Updated all the time with newer firmware and plenty of add-ons to choose from.

I've been doing that, but being on the old bootloader means allot of the TW roms don't work quite right and I end up wasting allot of time flashing and reading through pages and pages of reply's..

Why would you want it ? Its junk !!! Nothing beats CM11 !
Cause Stock always beats everything. And secondly CM11 has many bugs.

I think either you haven't tried CM11 or you just love stock but I don't think stock can beat CM11 in performance and there may be few bugs but most of them are minor bugs.
Even dual sim is working perfectly on most of the roms.
Stock is good too but not as good as CM11 in my opinion.
Thanks to all the awesome devs for making Grand much more GRAND by providing us with so many great roms. :good:
But at least there should be a stock option for people like me..

But until and unless Broadcom doesn't release any sources, I don't think we can get Stock Kitkat but maybe we may get Android L directly but that too AOSP based not samsung stock. :fingers-crossed:
Ok thanks. And also can you make a module to improve power saving feature on stock Jellybean?
Does anyone have a solution for led light on Grand?
Well..... Not quite
I dunno about kit kat, but in my S2 I was running CM10 I think it was and installed a couple of Sammy Apps and they ran fine, and I think there is a touchwiz nature ux i ran on it too. Maybe not a full port, god knows i've search for an allshare port and couldnt find it. So I tend to switch back n forth from CM11 to Sammy 4.2.2 tricked out by me.
Cheers,

[Q] what's the difference ?

So,I have a i9505 and I really wanna go for stock android experience,I'm tired of touchwiz stuttering and lags.Now,I am facing a dilema here as I'm not familiar with stock android,what is the difference between Cyanogenmod and GoogleEd. roms ?? I do need a stable rom and going slightly for battery life over performance.Which one should I choose?I can see that CM has bugs so that's a minus for CM.
Thanks!

Well you can always go for the new Google Play Edition (GPE) 5.0.
It wont harm to see what best fits you. CM12 will have bugs since its brand new lollipop but its almost the same as GPE 5.0.
I would recommend Google Play Edition if you really wanna experience the real Lollipop andriod it will have a few mods on it just to make the ROM run a little better and smoother. But I believe its truly the best.
Ok,I'll get danvdh GE rom Thanks

Yep i use that ROM sometimes.
But!
The downside by switching to that rom is that you will lose the great image processing/Camera in your phone.
TouchWiz/Samsung Firmware does do great photos. that's why i stay on touchwiz. but if you dont really use the camera or dont care about the quality at all and you are more about performance and battery life. go for the GpE 5.0 by danvdh. it's a great rom after all! :good:
that's the rom I'm on right now xD Nah,I don't really care about phone's camera.Btw,ure avatar scares me :-s

That all depends on how you use your phone. You should try CM12 for a couple of days and see how it goes. I'd be on CM myself but I want to keep all my call logs and messages and the native call recording feature. CM usually uses one third or half of the amount of RAM that TW uses, and has better battery stats in general. But like I said it depends on how you use your phone and what apps you have etc. The only real way to know what rom is best for you is if you try it yourself :good:

I'm like you, and like to keep that kind of stuff. Which are you using?
I've been on OmegaRom since August and it has been great. I am just tired of waiting for Lollipop and wanting to try something new.
If you have the lollipop (for example from the G900W8VLU1BOB3 rom) bootloader and modem you should be able to flash any KLTE rom.
Right now I'm on WanamLite XXU1BOB7 2.4, which is a touchwiz lollipop rom, and I'm happy with it as far as speed, stability and battery life.
Usually I just backup data & cache in TWRP and dirtyflash any new rom without wiping, if it's TW to TW or AOSP to AOSP it usually works.
If not, I either decide that the new rom is worth wiping for or I reflash my old rom and restore data.
BTW official lollipop is out for your model, G900W8VLU1BOB3

I need advice on S3 neo 1901i ROMS

Hi everyone i currently have a samsung s3 neo GT 1901I almost for a year and a half and it's been stuck on 4.4.2 i love this phone, it has never given me any freezing or rebooting issues but i was thinking now to try go to custom firmware's so guys with a similar phone to mine, please advice me which is the current most stablest rom for my device which i can flash in and if it is stable could you tell me some on the known bugs on it ? i really don't wanna flash a rom and be in full regret as i find this phone of mine really stable on my current stock rom
Thanks in advance for taking your time reading this
Flash cm 12.1
for me it's better to stay on the stock
a friend of mine suggested that I try the CM 12.1 , I really like it but it caused me a lot of troubles espaicially with the battery
then I went back to stock, however it's not the same solid and efficient phone I used to have.
but anyway, that's my personnel experience , if you're used with things like flashing and trying different ROMs go ahead
I think CM 12.1 is the best , there is a thread here ( I think) where the isuues I mentionned are probably fixed
good luck
If you like AOSP ROMs I suggest you to use CM12.1 by @Rox with the kernel made by @n1kolaa.
But if you're passionated for TouchWiz like I am I recommend you to use Project Lucky by @Ciro. It has a bit of random reboot problems, but it's the most stable LL TouchWiz ROM for our beloved S3 Neo.

Thanks for the reply and sharing your experience. I once had a lg e400 and went all out with on custom roms but they were never stable all were nightly roms i was hoping for a stable rom for this neo i have but you kinda have convinced not to play around with the stock rom to be honest

No, not too much. Actually, they are very rare in "Project Lucky" ROM.

Hi, quick question. I wanted to flash the Project Lucky S7 Style ROM by Ciro but the kernel version on my phone is 3.4.0 and the kernel verion of the rom is 3.0.x. Is it safe to flash?? Please let me know. Thanks
Battery is better on stock, and of course that stock is better for our phone but if you want to experience something new you should wait a few day 'cause CyanogenMod 12.1 is going to be official.
