Ive been thinking about TF3D and its negatives and positives about and want to see what you think and have to say
The "people" list, aka the tf3d contact list just plain sucks IMO, too damn big font for my taste, totaly nullifies the use of a big screen and I cant find the function to sort after company or use as the regular contact list can which makes it totally usable for me :/
The SMS function that is combined with the user is good in someways but I hardly ever use it, also way too big, is it just me that have good eyesight or is everything with TF3D just damn big? IMO we have a big screen to see lots of stuff, not just make them bigger and prettier... >_<
The built in music player in tf3d is pretty.. but PocketPlayer just pwnz it totally IMO, so much better features and possibilites with PP, one of the first apps I bought when I got my Touch HD
That are the negatives I come to think of now, I know there are more... but TF3D becomes better and better so maybe some of it will not be negative for me
Positive stuff is ofcourse that its pretty, smooth easy to use interface, beats most other standard WM GUIs, atleast all I have tried
There are no GUIs for WM that is more like Android? I dont know much about Android phones but what from I have seen it really seems more customizable and you can move to different desktops with different wallpapers and different functions and apps?
Hey all,
Need a new Android phone and I think the Note 4 is the way to go, I've had one before and I enjoyed it but that was a while ago. Note 5 doesn't have the removal battery that I need.
I hate the Samsung theme though it's so ugly, so is there any way I can change it easily to something stock android looking with a custom rom?
Thanks

I love my Note 4 so I would highly recommend it. The Note 5 is a total deal-breaker for me with no removable battery and no SD card slot either. The mind boggles with those choices by Samsung. Anyway, I totally support the move to the Note 4. It is a damn fine phone. Although the second poster is right, the camera can tend to lag. But personally, it's not a big issue for me. In fact, I've just upgraded to an S7 so we can sell it and get a Note 4 for my best friend. That's how much we love this model.
As for theme changing, the easiest way to do that is to just load a launcher onto your device. Even the best launchers have free options.
My top 3 favourite Launchers are Nova, Apex and LINE Launchers.
If you prefer fancy widgets and 3D options, look at Go Launcher or Next Launcher. But they are riddled with ads for their other products.
You will find a lot more options available through a Launcher in terms of customising your device to look and feel how you want it to. For most, it's as simple as downloading a theme and activating it through your launcher settings. Very easy and straight forward.
You don't need a custom ROM for that, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/official-layers-bitsyko-apps-rro-t3012172
And this is one of the best time to buy Note 4 by the way, price is low, camera is still solid, one of the fastest I have used, don't know exactly how much faster the camera on the Note 5 is to call Note 4 camera laggy and slow!, but it is irrelevant to me, can't ever touch a mess of greasy glass nuisance.

Thanks everyone for your comments.
Anthro- I am receiving my Note 4 today and need it for a long plane journey so I can have a removable battery and keep a spare, also I want the SD card function to switch between the phone and my GoPro on holiday. Hopefully with a ROM like Dr.Keaton it will be fast and smooth. As for the theme advice, thanks for that but I like a full theme which themes the full system like the setting and pull down menu etc. I am sure Iw ill figure this all out tonight when playing with my phone.
I may consider the Note 5 in the future but I can't seem to get one in the UK at the minute.
Thanks again
Hi ? everybody i have the S8 no even 2 months with this gorgeous device i wanna ask about your Pie experience Did you like it? Performance ? Do you like the new looks? Do the themes applies well on pie? Do you prefer pie or samsung experience ?
I see soo much bad comments on the aspect of this new version of software im doubting to upgrade
I strongly recommend you to upgrade to pie. Try and see the difference.
I love One UI. Im not a complainer with technology so maybe im not the person to ask, if it works well im happy i have real things to do than complain. But for me personally no issues and love the icons and the ui layout. Also full screen with no nav keys is nice to have. Im stll on ZSAI beta 3 i havent even gone to stable and it all works fine. Been using Pie since first beta... performance is good. however i dont play games but its fine for me to call, email, sms, and use insta, camera and browser. If thats your use then no problem its worth doing
yes you should, everything is working fine and there are a couple of nice new features
those of you that have One UI already on their S8 installed - can you check and see whether the "HIGH CONTRAST THEME" from the Samsung Theme store is still compatible with PIE?!
I am just holding off my the One UI b/c I am want to be sure that that theme works b/c I love it so much...I don't want to lose compatibility...THX

Recently my S6 Edge Plus has been having battery drain problems and instead of just reinstalling it I have decided to put a custom ROM on it. My previous phone was a Galaxy S5 and there were a plenty of ROMs available on XDA back then. Now that I have the S6 Edge Plus I really can't find a ROM that suits me and is still supported or has reviews and stuff like that. So I have decided make this new thread and just ask you for recommendations. I am actually a fan of Samsung's UI and apart from the bloatware apps (Facebook, Whatsapp and lot of Samsung crap that constanly autoupdates) I quite like it and would like to countinue using it. I am looking for a ROM that is basically stock samsung one but has battery improvements and some other extras (also prerooted would be nice). I saw a lot of ports from the newer Galaxy devices but I am not a huge fan of them because the UI is usually made for the new 18:9 display and the corners are rounded and I really dont like that. I searched for a ROM like that but couldn't really find one so I need your help

I checked it out but saddly it is the exact opposite of what I am looking for. I'd like to keep my phone stock and only get the battery improvements abd other little extras. I am not really into ported ROMs from other devices.
Hi, I'm looking for a good custom ROM for my S7 Edge, I love AOSP ROMS, but there is always a problem with the camera or with some app like WhatsApp.
Right now I'm using light ROM OREO, but I can't use apps like Disney plus, I think it hast to do with the CSC, but I haven't found a way to easily change it.
I'm open to options, and hope to see some
Thanks
Maybe you should trie a GSI Rom, you know, take advantage of the capability of the s7
