Omni for i9505

I found it strange there is no thread for Omni in development forum? There was a thread but abandoned since there was no maintainer for the device. But since then unified builds happened, and i9505 /jfltexx has been mentioned as a device supported by the updater script:
https://github.com/omnirom/android_device_samsung_jflte/blob/android-4.4/BoardConfig.mk#L129
Is here anyone who uses the ROM as a daily driver, or anyone who has checked it in the last time, to share experience with us? I'm downloading it right now, and will try to find time tomorrow to check it.

The reason is that the thread is under 'Unified' subforum, where also other AOSP ROMs like Octo, Nameless, PA are. Strange CM isn't there too...

Roms for Dev Edition

Hi all, there's been some back and forth as to which ROMs work on the dev edition. I decided to make a thread to list the ones I've tried and work. I figured we can share which worked and what you did to get them working (i.e. change APN, kernel, etc.). Thank you devs for sharing your great work I've used the following successfully:
Definitive
CM12 (known bugs)
Firekat (in T-mobile thread, daily driver)
Stock
Rick's

Well considering that there is no root available for the retail version it would make total sense that roms posted in the development forums are for the Dev edition of the device. I don't believe there is any question as which roms are for the Developer Device.

Have a great day!

I think he means Rom's that work versus those with too many bugs as opposed to DE vs RE rom's.
For this to be fully useful I would suggest links to the forum post for each Rom and listing out the different CM12 variants (AICP, PAC, etc.). Thanks

What I meant was, "I tried ROM xyz from the tmo forum using ABC kernel". I apologize if it wasn't clear enough. Some folks have successfully ported Roms that were for a different carrier.

My suggestion is that you edit the title also the other user has a great idea to post links for each one so you can actually have a help thread or index.

So....how did you get Firekat to work, then?

I'll update the page with links, etc. today. The Dev, Mega, makes a Verizon Dev edition specific version of Firekat. 11x is the most recent and it is listed under the T-Mobile Note 4 section but labeled as vzw.

Any OmniRoms available for Lenovo A850+ ?

Hello, I know you would probably will send me to the proper board, but since I'm a new user I can't start threads in the a850+ board, so I thought asking here, maybe someone could get me some info.
Are there any good stable roms of omnirom for the Lenovo A850+? I've just recently discovered about custom roms, and so far I found very few roms that are actually better than the stock [Most have phone crushing bugs]
Currently I'm using the colors OS 2.0, but their forums show little to no help when it comes to the a850+, so I hoped to change into a new rom
Thanks in advance

this isnt the right category for such kind of thread.
To answer your question, none. Everyone has its own annoying bugs, or everyone is missing features that others have. Best so far was lineage os but latest update screwed up everything and the OP, for unknown reason, removed the older builds

Very useful: fast or not, battery Sot, important bugs or minor bugs, special features: vulkan, etc.
Please not fill threat with Volte and Godix. There are many fixes.
Important: post name of rom and build date!

Use any rom you want with Nagatobimaru kernel! Damn it is a great kernel.

RR cos they got wheater **** working

I used to like AospExtended, had the least bugs of all the AOSPs (i want notification and ring sliders separated)
I had to go back to MIUI tho, none of them has working mic cancellation on hangouts... its weird bcs in skype it works fine, but I can't use skype :/

none of them and wrong section

Try one by one, you will find a real answer,.

DELETE

Wrong section

Thread moved.
Anyways, making threads asking what is the "best rom" is really pointless. Everyone loves something different, judgement is super subjective. If you were to ask me 2 years ago what the "best rom" would be, I would probably say ParanoidAndroid because of its clean interface. Fast-forward a couple months, then I would tell you that it is CrDroid, because feature packed roms are the best! Fast-forward until two months ago, I would tell you CarbonROM, because that's when I joined their team and became a developer for the ROM :silly:. Do you guys see my point? How about some constructive criticism and discussion like asking "What is your favourite N rom and why?" instead (That's what I changed the thread title to be, anyways )! So guys, what's your favourite N rom and why? Let's try to keep this discussion clear of any arguments and any XXX is better than XXX. I'll start!
AICP has been in the Android rom community for a very long time. Their head developers are cool, and they keep things organized and feature packed!

None because there's always something that end up broken. Camera, Fingerprint etc...

dirty unicorn is best 7.1 rom. fast fluid. just try one time you ll love it.

I think you should make a poll to see which rom is having the most user. About me, it is unofficial lineage os. I like that because the op there support for both fpc and goodix, and because lineage os is cyanogenmod's legacy...

SM-G975W Custom Roms

Hi everyone,
I wanted to see if could flash a different rom/try lineage os on my S10+ (SD/Canada) and I've checked everywhere but i can't find a single thread or website where there is support for this phone (or the SM-G975U). Am i just unable to navigate the forum or is there literally no support/custom rom development for these versions?
Thanks

Got my answer.

sheikh03, I am also curious if lineage would work on SM-G975W. Do you mind posting any information you found?

1. You cannot unlock the bootloader yourself but according to this thread there is a way
2. This thread is the lineage OS rom for the SnapDragon Version
The 2nd Thread has a link to the TWRP recovery thread as well.
