Hey all
I've given up on my phone for a long time, but being a poor student, I've no choice. I'm using AEX latest with Magisk, but gps and mobile connectivity sucks, also pokemon lags constantly. Well, so many things lag, but I got used to it.
(I still can't get why a phone with 4x2.21 GHz processor lags, can anybody with technical knowledge explain to me?)
I'm not sure Magisk can be installed on stock G2 rom, and also not sure how well that works.
Can anyone recommend me a good rom with good gps fix?
Hi, I van play good with last LineageOS build. Check the thread! Do not forget to make a backup first!
i use Los as well. it doesnt has such problems its fine. But no matter which rom you use (i also tried aex) pokemon go works same. That game isn t stable.

Heya,
So i experienced a lot of problems with the stock ROM on my S4 taking up way too much space and being kinda slow and crappy, so after hearing of CM and the speed increases and benefits it can have, i decided i'd give it a go, and for about a year now its been my daily driver.
However it has some issues, which are recently becoming more of a problem to me.
Now the first one might have seemed like a deal breaker to anyone else but honestly i wasnt too frustrated with it.
This issue is that the 3g connection with the device when im out and about straight up doesnt work. It shows red in the pull down menu and just doesnt work.
Next issue is that the camera has been severely downgraded in image quality.
Now recently i've been requiring the phone more than usual when out and about doing my job as tech support.
My issue is that i want these features to work correctly, but i dont want to run the stock ROM, can anyone advise how i can either fix these issue with CM or can you help me choose a different ROM which doesnt have these particular problems?
Run one of the Google Play Edition ROMs. Fewer problems will be had as these ROMs are versions of Android untouched by Samsung except for the inclusion of the libs needed to properly run the phone.
Another alternative is to go back to stock, but with the addition of some time spent in debloating the ROM, and with the addition of a new launcher to replace the stock version.
Excellent, thanks for the advice, i've now installed JFLTE after a bit of research and it's so far a very pleasant experience, ill report back if i have further problems with the mobile data connection but so far it appears to work.
Basically when I enter a game I'm stuck in its menu because my touch won't work.
This happens for games only with larger size, like Max payne, GTA vice city, spider man 2.
Otherwise my phone is perfect and I do not experience these touch issues with smaller sized games like smash it, bomb squad.
I did my research and not able to find a solution.
Please help!
Maybe it's rom related?
I don't think anyone else running CM11 M12 snapshot are facing the same issue
The only way to find out is by flashing another rom. What can you lose? Just backup this one, wipe everything and flash a new one. Install the culprit games and try. If they do work as intended, then your problem is solved.
Yea it works with the stock samsung touchwiz! But the thing is I just wanna know anyone out there are able to run games over 900 mb smoothly in s4-i9505 running CM11
I don't think it's rom related because I don't ever any cm users facing such problems in the latest nightly..... And I've had this problem only from kitkat.
Name any game over a gig it doesn't work. And chain reaction too.
I don't know. Different problems may appear for different users. Some users may be facing problems that others don't have. Like you do.
I don't know what might cause it but it's clearly a rom problem since it works on stock but doesn't in cm11. Or it may also be a kernel problem. Try a different kernel with the cm11 rom you're using
What is the best kernel you would recommend for running CM11?

Hi, I recently had to reset my Nexus 4 and took the opportunity to try a custom ROM.
I chose Pure Nexus 6.0.1 and I like it, but I have a very annoying issue: when I do not reboot my phone for a few days (can be 1 days, can be 3 days) it starts getting sluggish, until it freezes - generally the moment when I open a more intensive app like a car navigation app.
If I reboot it everything works fine and smooth for a while.
I never had this problem before with official ROMs, and I'm using the same apps as always.
Is there a solution to this, or maybe can anyone suggest a different ROM?
I need a ROM which is complete and 100% stable, and I do not have the time to do much testing myself...
I do not care if it is bleeding edge, Marshmallow is enough , but I really do not want to get crazy with bluetooth or wifi issues, crashes, slowdowns...
Thank you very much for any pointers!

Hi guys,
My LG V20 is my main, and also my work phone. My goal is to have the lightest ROM available while still having a stable feature set (speaker, bluetooth, wifi, etc all working normally)
After a bit of trouble, I finally got 14.1 Lineage OS loaded up and it's definitely lighter but I've been running into issues. People do not hear me well on speaker, bluetooth music play "skips", and now the bluetooth is no longer connecting to devices I've connected it to before.
I'd love to have something that removes all bloatware, but still has the stability of stock. Any recommendations?
I have a H910 AT&T Variant,
My job requires my phone. I mainly use my phone for Skype, WhatsApp, Email, Google Maps + Navigation, Playing FLAC music using High Impedance headphones and Car 3.5mm input, FM Radio, RockRadio.com app/Galaxie Radio(RadioKing) app and 4G LTE data.
I tried AOKP, RR, LOS, Alpha and Super...both ver. 7(Nougat) and 8(Oreo).
This took me a very long time to decide, I also tried older stuff like WETA, etc...
Alpharom Oreo works best for me, everything I listed works fine.
I use the mk2000 kernel, great battery life, with heavy use you need to fast charge sometime in the day.
The only problem I have, the wifi seems to go off when phone is inactive because whatsapp on pc keep saying not connected until you unlock/wake up phone.
But it is so awesome, I love it...
AOSP based roms have problems with audio and dac, it works but not loud and clean, I tried playing with mixer file but no luck.
They are much faster and LOS15 based roms have the second screen working with custom kernel...
Don't worry, it is work in progress...
This is just my opinion, and it suits my lifestyle, you need to try some different ones and see for yourself.
It's funny you mentioned Alpha being the one you like most. I was going through the roms yesterday, and couldn't install some of the Oreo based roms (I'd get an error that the kernel wasn't the correct one, I guess since I was coming from 14.1)
After looking through some, I ended up installing the alpha omega oreo rom with mk2 kernel and it is working great so far (I just haven't tested bluetooth yet).
I've lost all the sluggishness I saw before, especially when using "Ok, Google" to add calendar appointments, etc.
I have the second screen which is also a nice little bonus. Battery life seems to be as good as it's been, as well.
One question : I tried using Magisik to check all the bloatware I wanna hide, but it doesn't seem to do anything? Is there a way I can remove LG and ATT bloatware completely?
i am still using wetarom with weta kernel... since it was well developed and a stock base rom, i found no problem whatsoever while using it... even tho is outdated, no one has successfully hacked my phone yet lol
The alpha install lets you choose what bloatware you want to remove...
Flash the magisk zip right after before reboot, thats what I do...
You can disable whatever apps remain like uber, etc....
I just keep LG Smartworld for themes, LG Health, FM Radio and LG Music app.
I've been trying to get the LG AirDrive to work, it worked some time with older alpha build but it now keeps crashing.

WETA was/is a great rom but something about running the latest android appeals to me. Great performance/battery life and audio stuff.
So far alpha rom has been working well (still trying to find a safe list of bloatware that I can remove via ADB, or some other way.)
Only issue I'm having, which I also had before, is that bluetooth play (especially in the car, but no exclusively), will sometimes stutter like it's a 90's cd player. Not sure if it could be related to the case I have on the phone at all? I'll have to test it both ways and see what happens
Just run BluReset app included with the ROM (I think you have to select it) it helps but need to do it ever so often, I just use Bluetooth for calls in the car and 3.5mm for audio.
Hello,
as the object I would like an advice on the choice ROM for my G900F, no matter what version Andoid is, the important thing is that it is fluid, stable, light and low battery consumption.
Currently I have the latest stock firmware with root and TWRP.
I saw this ROM, what do you think? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2741302
Thank you all for the support,

You may want to try out AEX Pie, currently have it installed on my G900F, battery life is fine. Everything's working apart from the occasional WiFi (just unlock screen for it to turn back on automatically) or Bluetooth cutout (which is fixed by turning BT on and off). Barely happens, I'd give it a go if I were you.
Otherwise LOS 16.0 would be a good choice as well.
Camera's working 100% on both ROMs though I'd recommend the A2 camera (thread here on XDA) as it is nicer to use and the quality is slightly better.
