I would say S4. Theres a lot more developer support and its a good phone.
Look It's a matter of perspective really it comes down to what you are looking for... If you are into rooting, tweaking and using custom roms then s4 is the way to go but if you want something solid and genuinely faster than the s4 the A5 is your thing and to be honest the A5 seems to get a lot of attention lately . If you choose to go with the A5 be sure to buy the model which is right for you and has some development going. Cheers

I run aicp on my a500fu and its a good phone. Not to much development but enough for me. Also I get an average of 5hr+ sot, best is 6hr 49m.
A500FU using AICP
Finally I bought a Samsung Galaxy s5 haha
Hello,
I have a question !
Why you still are developing versions of the A500FU (Samsung Galaxy A5 2015)?
You can start developing versions on the A510F (Samsung Galaxy A5 2016) please?
I think I am not the only person to want this because the only version we Laquel right until today it is the 5.1.1 with TouchWiz overlay that slows us the phone.
Thank you.
You want to shift the attention from a certain phone to another?
Fine, make sure you buy the devs the new A5.
Devs will share what they work with, they cant just blindly innovate for people a rom without actually having the phone itself.
Unfortunately for you, not many devs bought the 2016 series, as they have Exynos chips made from samsung, which have no public documentation to support the devs work.
Absolutly true story!
Hey everybody! I rooted so many devices in my life, like Asus, Motorola, etc, but this is my first Samsung device, and I want to know: root is a good idea on Galaxy A9 Pro? I know that I can't acess knox and Samsung Pay again with root, but I don't care, I mean: The performance and battery continuous the same thing? Thanks!
A9pro root is possible.. TWRP also is present. But only 1 custom rom is there. No dev support for A9pro otherwise. So better stay stock if you can. As far as battery life is concerned, go with Package Disabler Pro for better results.

Totally agree with you mate.
As you`ve mentioned actually there is no development for this beast. And Sammy has also almost zero support for this device (not even Nougat update yet. still on MM!) Though I`ve rooted my device (usually as I always do with every devices). But obviously with stock MM.
BTW, I`ve searched a lot in web, but can`t find any device like this one, which has a great XDA support. Have you any idea ?

Mi Max Prime is a good option. Actually the battery of MiMax is lasting longer than a9pro in all stock.

M8, you have rooted haven't you. After rooting, what changes have you made? Care to share please...
(Also, oneplus 3t is a good option as far as dev support is concerned, but battery only 3400mah)

Thanks mate for your sharing.
Mi Max Prime is a good phone, but the only issue is Hybrid Sim. Can`t use it with Dusl sim and SD card. I need dual sim with dedicated memory slot.
OP3T is alsao a very good choice. But battery is only 3400mah (as you`ve mentioned). I`ve read somewhere in web that OP5 is comming (though I think it`ll be more expensive). I think getting a device according to need is really very hard.
Now come to your point - after rooting I`ve installed Xposed with some modules, audio mod, S8 launcher, Xwidget app etc. Searching some ported S8 apps (theme centre, clock package, gallery etc) for installing. I`ve tried S8 Themestore app, but it`s not working. This is my setup for my A9 Pro right now. It would be very nice if there is a ported working AOD app of S7/S8 (like A7 - 2017, C9 Pro). Though it`s not possible right now. Coz there is no custom kernel/ Rom released for our A9 Pro yet. As it is a kernel related feature, this app is not ported by any Dev yet. I think it`s an excellent device, but there is no development for this device. That`s why I`m thinking to switch over to other device. But can`t find any device aqccording to my need yet.
True. Aod would be nice. Have tried playstore alternatives but those don't work as good as s7/s8 aod. + battery drain. Even nougat won't bring aod to us. Sad.

You`re right mate.I`ve tried many customization app from PS. But almost each app has the common issue - that is battery drain. That`s why it`s always better to have this type of custozation app as rom - native.
BTW, have you any idea about when our A9 pro will get official Nougat ? Or whether it`ll get or not ?
A5 already has got, but A9 pro not yet.
Really confusing Sammy. :silly:
Was about to talk on nougat. It's such policies of samsung that makes me mad. A5 gets it first not a9pro. (A7 too now)
Did you happen to use substratum theming? Any idea? Will it work now that you are rooted?
Regarding dual sim issues of mi max, go for 128gb prime & use dual sims. I used to do that.

Well said mate. :good:
Undoubtedly sam`s policies are very strange and it can make anybody mad.
A5, A7 has got official android N and good XDA supports too. I `don`t know why ? May be these are the most popular devices in A Series. Really sometimes I feel very disapoint about A9 pro. There is no development atall, even after a year !
BTW, do you have Mi Max Prime still now ?
If so, as an user, what is your feedback about this one ? Is it really a good substitute of A9 pro ? Would you share your feedback/personal experiences with me ? I think it`s better to use PM instead of this thread.
And for Substratum theming - I think it`s a theme engine based on CM, and we can`t use it in TW-based rom (may be I`m wrong). I`ve to studdy about this. But really it`s a good thing for our A9 pro, if We can use it.
Today i say hello to my nvidia shield tablet k1, and i'm looking for a new 200 € tablet on amazon. Is good today Samsung galaxy tab a 2016 32gb with 2 gb ram? There's something i have to know before buing and before updating to the 7.0? The state of unofficial lineage os is good? Major Bug? What about overclocking?
I have the sm-p580 and I'm very happy with it bought it Nov 2017 the unofficial lineage OS is 8.0 current has bugs a good deal of them the 7.0 version as far as I know is stable
