Guys can u share the best rom for mt6572 kk4.4.2 out there? I want to give a new look to my phone. please guide me to do it. my phone is rooted. phone: Inew cxq u1. Recently I have flashed my phone via sp tools with stock rom. And this time I want to flash with custom rom. please guide me to install recovery and porting by pc/phone.
Sorry, it's a question impossible to answer. It's also a wrong kind of question in this forum. No decent Android user will answer that. My recommendation is to try different Roms and drink Ron Zacappa.

Search on needrom website
I cant tell you how to get the best rom but you can search on needrom website. Go to your phone's section. There would be many rom, so read about their features and search for the one with highest rating.(Generally the latest ones).
I am new to the smartphone world....and i recently rooted a Sony xperia e5 f3311...no problem...i have searched wide for a custom rom, that has been tested on this device...are there people with flashed custom rom on this device.....if i wanted to risk flashing a random custom rom...which one would be most safe....very few info about this phone...maybe cause it's reletavely new..
Any nougat or other custom rom for 4.4.2 android based smartphone with 1 gb ram + rooted .......intex aqua dream?

Pretty much all stock based firmwares are very stable, as stable as stock really. Theres not really a 'best' ROM as everyone has different needs/tastes/preferences/etc, but the below two ROMs are stock based. They are based on the latest firmwares and have optional mods, but you can chose if you want to mod it or leave it alone and it will be as close to stock as you can get.
You dont really have to flash a stock odin base first, although if you are on pre-knox bootloader you could flash a pre-knox 4.2.2 stock rooted ROM via Odin and create a nandroid backup, so you have a backup option, 'just in case'.

about flashing the odin base first?

Sorry didnt see you have a I9500..
Perhaps someone else can advise?
If it works for you flashing the odin base first then go for it. The only reason I would advise not to is if you are on the old pre-knox boot loader and want to avoid Knox. I flashed a pre-rooted MGA firmware on my I9505 shortly after I got it and used stock rooted for a while, then tried GoldenEye, which is a stock based custom ROM. Im now on the latest version of GE which is based on 4.4.2 and dont have any issues.
I would recommend checking the I9500 dev section to see what ROMs are available, the below one looks like what you may be after. Stock based with add ons that are optional with an aroma based installer.

Im suprised that a member that is that long around asks a best rom question.
You should know by now that there is no best/bugfree rom. Every thread that has these kind of questions gets closed.
Try it out for yourself which rom suits you. There are plenty of roms to chose from.

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 .

Hi, I am new on xda and stuff. I will explain in short-
I am 15. It's my first phone. I have rooted it. It gives very poor performance. I decided to flash a custom. Couldn't find any for my model (ROW/K50A40).
My questions are-
Should I flash a custom rom? ? because it's still in warranty period (actually its only a few months old).
Why does it performs so poor ? (compared to my friend's Asus zenfone 2 laser same price)?
I geuss it's because I haven't updated the ui (since its rooted) because the system consumes a lot of RAM and that's why it lags. So I want to flash a custom rom. And ROW version requires SP tool to flash rom? Can't I use recovery? I have CWM recovery which I used for rooting.
Help me plz ?

Flash ROW version
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/Cvj7/3U5rjvc6s/ROW/
In SP FLash Tools:
1.- Never use Format (You will loose your NVRAM and your phone)
2.- In options, before flash, mark Checksum, if you don't mark it phone will not work.

Those are stock roms? Is it the latest/ updated rom? Will it fix the performance problems? What are OTA and SOURCE folders? I don't want to loose root to get back warranty. I just want to make my phone better by flashing a custom rom. How about vibeui 3.5? It has android marshmallow. But is it compatible with ROW model? Is any custom rom compatible with ROW? ?
I got it. Never mind ?. Thanks for your help TorpedoJavi.

Hi @Aditya781
K3 Note China -> K50-t5 (ST (stable) and DEV (developer) ROMs)
K3 Note India -> K50a40 (ROW ROMs)
They are the same phone, with the same hardware. I recommend do not use customs ROMs if you don't know what are you doing.
For non Chinese users ROW (Rest of World) ROM is OK, although, as I want to experiment, I'm currently using Chinese ROM ST.
Good luck.
P.D.: NEVER USE FORMAT IN SP FLASH TOOLS, NEVER.
I am going to try CM 12.1 ST LP 5.1 when few issues are fixed. http://www.needrom.com/download/stable-cyanogenmod-12-1-multilingual/
Hi guys. I apologize if there is already a thread similar to this one.I tried to do a search but I keep getting blank results.
I hope someone can help me.
I have a Samsung S4 I9500 Exynos with Stock 4.2.2 rom.My question are-
Can I flash a custom 6.0.1 rom directly over the 4.2.2 or will I have problems with the bootloader and kernel (modem/radio)?
I want to flash either GearCM or RR.I already have TWRP 3.2 I think and am rooted.
Or would I need to flash to Custom 5.1.1 rom first to prevent any problems?
If I need to flash 5.1.1 can someone please recommend a rom thats customizable like RR but still very stable for everyday use with minimal bugs and that includes the latest bootloader and kernel (modem\radio)?
If I like the 5.1.1 rom that you guys recommend I'll rather use it, but I like 6.0.1 UI more.
Please I will appreciate any help you guys can give me.
Thank you
You'll probably have to update the bootloader and modem before flashing a custom 5.0 or 6.0 ROM.
Ok thanks @audit much appreciated.You don't maybe know who has the latest stuff?Will it be @ALBERTO's roms?
The easiest and safest way to update the bootloader and modem world be top flash the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. Once updated, you can flash twrp, and a custom ROM for your phone.
OS rom

Tell me how everything goes with your Galaxy. I too have a GT-i9500 which I flash to RR it installed okay but had bugs & used up battery life quickly. So I tried to flash to my backup, which it did but it didnt like? So right now I had flash to a stock 5.0.1 rom from Sammoble to save the device. Everything is good now. I think support for this model is not good being its an international model? cheers
Thank you so much for that info @hiitsrudd.I am still searching for a rom on sammobile I could only find the latest kernel but its locked for premium users.Could you maybe send me a link for that stock rom PLEASE.Then I'll upgrade to 5.0.1 before flashing the custom one.Which RR did you flash 6.0.1 or 7.1.2?Ill gladly post how my flash went.

How's that Cyanogen mod going for ya?
Hi @hiitsrudd.Apologies for being so quite.I was exremely busy the past few weeks.Ok so i finally got some time to download that rom I mentioned to you.
I want to flash it now but I'm a bit worried.
1.When the dev posted a modem and he says flash through CWM, can I also flash it via TWRP?
2.Do I flash the modem before flashing the android rom?
3.Can I flash another updated modem instead of the one the dev used?For example there is newer modems available in the GearCM 5.1.1 can I flash that one instead?

@Relay85 not sure what you mean about flashing modem? I'm under the impression that a modem would be flashed with whichever ROM you choose? I've been busy with a kindle also, let me check into this later.
Anyway I believe you have TWRP installed so you should be good to go to flash any ROM of your choice, I would flash Magisk & the Gapps for you device as well. You should be okay, I'm assuming you downloaded the latest version of this ROM, because the Developer usually does updates. happy flashing:good: I pray for rain in your region too!
I have not seen a custom ROM include a modem. The modem is usually part of the stock ROM included with downloads from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.
If you want to flash a custom ROM, I suggest flashing the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. This will ensure that the phone is running the latest stock bootloader and modem.
I do not recommend flashing a modem unless something is not working after flashing the custom ROM and it has been stated that flashing the custom modem will not cause any future issues with other ROMs.
Yep the GT-9500 has a LTE capable factory modem which should run in the custom ROM.
Hi guys ( @hiitsrudd and @audit13 ) thanks for both your replies.Really appreciate the help you gave me.
@hiitsrudd So I never flashed the custom rom I mentioned in my previous post because I read someone complaining about battery draining problems.
I flashed this custom rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop/ressurrection-remix-m-t3404556
and I have to say its amazing.Its fast,stable, battery life is about the same as stock android but performance is better in my opinion.I have not yet experienced any of the bugs they mentioned on the thread so I guess they fixed everything.But I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with this rom. I flashed the 5.7.4 version with gapps pico and everything works great.Im now looking for a kernel to flash just to see if I can get a bit more battery life but I'm not in a hurry cause the rom runs great as is.
I can highly recommend this rom if you are looking for something different than stock.Its really an awesome custom rom.The dev really did an amazing job with this one.I really like the startup logo aswell.Wish I had this rom on my other S4 I9505.I really miss that phone.
Anyway thanks for all your help @hiitsrudd.I really hope you give this one a shot.And I hope to speak to you again in the future.
Cheers for now.All the best to both you guys.
This thread is now closed as my questions were answered and solved.
Thanks XDA once again you made my life a bit more enjoyable.You guys help so many people, this is an AMAZING forum.

well, I advise you to download and flash a custom NN Rom. which most of them are away better than the stock one
First: you need to flash a custom recovery
Second: download any custom ROM you like, for me I am using SEP 8.5, a Galaxy.
Third: Flashed it to your phone.
Fourth: if you don't know how to do all above. then you should watch some youtube videos.
Note: be careful to not break your phone.

If you don't want to install custom rom for some reason like custom roms come with few or many bugs. , I advise you to update to android 6.0.1. Custom roms come with few or many bugs. As for me, I flashed a custom roms as I don't care about the bugs as they only affect features that are somewhat not important.
