Hey peepz,
Is there a good Google Edition custom ROM with all the samsung (or a few) added features like the camera features, smart screen, air gesture, IR blaster and samsung watchon? I'm really looking forward to get the AOSP feeling, but I don't want to give up on all of the Samsung added features.
Ik really hope you guys can help me out!
Greetz.

Nobody? Or a dual boot kernel?
Edit: or something like a google edition rom with an on/off switch for touchwiz or something
Is there nothing out there like this?

Therer is something very close to what you wan't is the OMEGA ROM. The Version 8 should be out at any moment.
But actual version is very good and stable.
But if you are like me, who want Nexus experience but with that little in the GUI but with Settings like TW, the progressive sound alarm, pass the hand in front of the screen to wake the phone... then you are out of luck
Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem the skin on the Honor 6X. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it adds just the right amount of features, it's visually pleasing, and overall it's additive to the experience. If this is a Nexus phone (you didn't think we hand-wrote all of these prompts, did you?) then use this rating to indicate how the latest version of Android looks to you.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Personally i have to admit that i like so much EMUI 5.0. EMUI 4 didn't got the same level of impression on me, while the passage to version 5+Nougat did it instead. It's a very smart UI, clean and easy to approach. I came from LineageOS 14.1 to EMUI 4.1; at the beginning i was disappointed, then i tried to make habit to it. It was transmitting to me a sense of poorness in relation to LineageOS. With 5, I still miss some exclusive Lineage features (hope to get 'em back too) but it is definitely better than his previous version.

Right man, EMUI has an enormous size of icons, i understand that the display is big but ouch stock EMUI icons are punches in eyes, seems like they're made for cyclops. With a resize of icons thanks to third party launchers, everything comes back to normal luckily
emui5 is classic, one of the reasons that i still stick to my honor phones
Do you guys take money or gift from Huawei? In all this real life threads there are the same guys talking about how great is this phone. That is not so great.
I hope EMUI 6 offers changes in UI.
It should be more similar to AOSP by what I've read

I apologise guys, i went to search the same article that I've read yesterday about the similitude with AOSP to link it for you and I've noticed that they have modified the article since that they wrote the phrase as an affirmation, instead that a question. They now wrote that "they'll see if this time EMUI will be more Android Stock or if they'll go in the opposite direction". The thing that is sure is that EMUI 6 should be more user-friendly thanks to suggestions based on previous user experience. Hope to be on custom soon anyway...

That's ok bro. I really hope they do it that way.
it was not so exceptional till EMUI 4 but with EMUI 5.0 it has certainly evolved much and became more user friendly.
Notification panel has improved.
shortcut tiles are a big welcome as earlier we had only 8 tile limitation which changed upto 20+ in EMUI 5.
settings are not that good compared to EMUI 3.X (with EMUI 4 onwards, many options are hidden inside another causing multiple hops)
icon changes are welcome but not to impressive.
overall a big step from EMUI 4 but still needs improvement.
Emui 4.1was OK..wasn't an fan.but emui 5 is good expirience

Yes. Lot of improvement over EMUI 4 now and cleaner UI
I just hate EMUI
I am coming from MIUI and MIUI is much much better than emui
Other oem skin like flyme os are also better than emui.
Witch emui i feel like i am behind the competition, it is not well optimized it lags a lot don't have very useful features and basic features like call recording or long screenshot floating dock is also of third class app lock is also feels like some third party app i really wish if i can have MIUI or Flyme os 6 on honor 6x but this devices lacks community support so i will have to live with Emui
Coming from Touchwiz, I'm really starting to like EMUI.
hoping to see emui6 on this.
Me too. Receiving EMUI 6 wikl be great.
EMUI is a bad system. It slows the phone down and is really ugly overall. Lots of useless features and bloatware.
So, I'm currently thinking on switching from stock to a custom ROM, and this is one of the biggest questions for me right now.
I have got used to the fingerprint navigation gestures and I think they're great, so I would like to know if you people know of a ROM that has this feature or if there is at least an app that can replicate them in the exact same way.
Thanks in advance.
PS: I'm also looking for suggestions of which ROM to switch to, I'm just looking for something stable enough, with great features, but closest to stock as possible. All suggestions except Lineage OS are welcome. Thanks again.

Switch to AOKP ROM. It has that FP Gesture. And Everyother rom has that feature.

So you're saying all roms have the feature, but AOKP is the best (or the suggestion you would give to me) ?
What are the things you think are better on AOKP than on Stock, or how would you compare them?
Btw, would you mind uploading or sharing some pictures of AOKP? Like settings, SystemUI tuner, demo mode, additional settings for the rom, notifications panel, etc... ??
I checked the rom thread but the pictures there are basically useless for me. Thanks in advance.

Lineage OS is great, it has fingerprint gestures, Motorola actions (twist, chop etc.) and plenty of other features to enhance your G5 P.

I decided to give it a try. It has some inconsistencies and their configuration app looks really bad. I went with AOSPExtended, and currently loving it.

Lineage OS has inconsistent colors in settings, I have requested them to fix it too many times, and they just ignore the issue when all they have to do is change a line of code. I'm not ever going to use Lineage OS again.
Try Validus Rom
hello, sorry for the sarcastic title I found a device surfing the web an infinite nite 5 stylus which seems to have Implemented similar features of spen TouchWiz in their system and was thinking a if it's possible to Port them to our beloved note 3.

thanks

This definitely ain't gonna happen, but I'm still curious, what exactly is the point of porting similar features ?

Search and read about SPenCommand (Paid app).
the point of the port is getting more features of spen I believe is what worth of the note series.
about spencommand in Oreo an pie ROMs it doesn't get the device like a note series
im in pie rom AOSP extend
I believe it's time to change my good old note 3
Hey guys, the one thing I liked about the stock ROM was that I could make the screen really dark and really bright. It's much more limited on the AOSP ROMs I've tried. Is there any ROM that gives me more control over brightness?
its the way they designed android pie which is stupid af. also tested it on my friends android one device its the same as the custom roms on lavender.

yup but its a heavily skinned pie. just like any other oem os. most custom rom devs prefer closer stock android experience.

Yeah, but Xiaomi actually fixes the bull**** google does to Android, that's why it takes longer for us to get android updates.

But brightness levels have nothing to do with skinning, no? If Xiaomi could change it, so could any other dev maybe?
My other two gripes with MIUI are the stupid notification behaviour and lack of colored music notifications + album art as background (yes that's important!) ?.
is there a fix?

I feel the album art as background too, but i prefer to stay on MIUI for better stability overall, plus i got really used to the MIUI skin so i don't feel like changing.

But how about notification behavior? I totally hated that because I want all my unread notifs to always stay in the notif bar + lockscreen.
Also, what is the best place to suggest / discuss implementing changes to MIUI? The official forums seem either dead or I get generic replies and little views.

I believe you'd have to enter the closed beta program to do that, the inscription is not always open though, you'd have to check mi community for more info.
Thanks.
While we're talking - does anyone else have the issue where 4G doesn't reconnect after calls? Sometimes it does after a longer while, but it's much quicker to enable/disable airplane more to get it to reconnect. I actually remember having a similar issue while on the stock ROM too.
