The most stable rom I know of is the Omega rom, it's not only
stable but it has all the bells and whistles anyone would want
in a custom rom.
Good luck!

Dont give him this advice. Almost every rom there is stable.
There is a reason that these questions are not allowed on XDA because he should just try it for himself.

Try Them Out
I personally found all roms stable, even the CM Beta releases.
However the developers always mention bugs etc. so you should try them out.
I personally ended up installing the stock , installed the xposed framework .

So far I've tried Foxhound, Wanam Lite and Omega. All TW based. Have to say that all of them were really quite stable. I personally prefer Omega though, it seems to be updated very regularly.

Stock rom is the most stable rom. Nothing beats it. :thumbup:

I use Phronesis N7 port and Snap Camera from playstore. It has panorama and the HDR (although a bit slower) is quite good. There is nice settings for tweaking the HDR to your choice. To me, worth the few bucks!

AryaMod Stock Based ROM (Note 3 Rom development has stopped, so it wont be updated) and idle kernel.
They have Ported Touchwiz Roms too

N910F Best Rom?

Hi i'm still on stock rom Android 6.0.1 (updated by Odin). I wan't to install some custom rom to my N910F note 4 but there is so many roms i can't decide which one would be the best. I'm thinking of roms with note 7/s7 features. Can any of you that using decent rom give an advice which rom is most stable without bugs or only minor bugs? I don't want to lose fingerprint secure and i'm aware few roms had problems with that? Is it fixed now? If any of you have tested any roms and are happy can you make some recommendations for me for which rom i should go? I will really appreciate that

You have to flash a zip file from twrp
it will give you original note 4 settings ui then register fingerprint after that flash another zip file to restore s7 settings ui.then you can use fingerprint with c locker app for lockscreen.and fingerprint srcurity app to lock apps both of this apps are free in playstore
Just search for fingerprint workaround inside noble v3 thread and there are lot of discussion and files there.

Thank you for opinion, have you also tried Dr Ketan or Norma rom before Noble v3?

Drketen rom is very good but i have over heating issues
And norma i tried all versions but still in beta and buggy in my opinion.there are lot of fix to do to make norma run stable.

Thank you Trex888 for your opinion, i think i will give it a try at evening i will try to install it however if anyone want to add something to this trade feel free to do so. More opinions only help (i guess not only for me but for other N910F users)

how does AOD work for you? Its buggy and you cant use the auto brightness

It works great just when you unlock phone you have to press power button 2 or 3 times or you can cover the sensors with your finger and press once to restore brightness.make sure you update AOD from galaxy apps to latest version.

So basically i need to download the latest version of rom from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-noble-rom-t3392289
And for instalation process first i need to flash Bootloader & Modem, then rom and then kernel? If yes which kernel you recommend? and do i need to root my phone before?

Custom roms comes pre rooted you don't need to root
You have to be on any 6.0.1 bootloader doesn't matter
Best kernel for noble in my openion will be 1 of 3 kernels below.
1st . xceed kernel will give you performance & better battery and no over heating in my opinion
2nd. beastmode r56 will give you best speed & performance but sometimes has heating and auto sync issues with noble v3
3rd. Hvitamin kernel will give you best performance and speed but has heating issues
All of them will work with n910f
You can try every 1 couple of days dont judge in few hours kernel is good or bad
Dont forget to thanks or donate few bucks to kernels and rom developers if you can.they put lots of hours to do awesome job.
All kernels are awesome I am not saying that kernels are bad i am sharing my opinion and experience based on my usage

I've installed the rom it was working fine. However fingerprint lock don't work for me? Do i need to use third party apk for that? Second thing later i've instaled xceed kernel, everygthing seems to work fine and smooth. However eveytime i restart phone or turn it off and on in left up corner is see text "kernel is not senandroid enforcing" - is that mean something is wrong? Phone is turning on normally, there is no boot loop or anything like that but it concerns me a little bit.

Which is the best rom for the samsung s5?

Just wanted to know.
[S5 SM-G900F]
Which roms are the most stable?
Also which roms offer the most performance or battery life?
What kernels should i use for mm or n?
So far i tried SkiesROM UX v3.1. Which is decent but has some problems. Going to try Resurrection Remix N now.
Thanks.

I'm usig the latest stock:
Debloated, Rooted, Tweaked, Xposed
Working grea,t Stability and batterylife is the greatest.

"Best" is subjective
You'll have to try them out to see what you like the best. Read the threads of each ROM to see what to expect for stability/battery/performance

I am using viper os it's buttery smooth it's on android 7.1.2 and it's blazing fast

Performance?
Any recent AOSP ROM on 7.1.2. RR if I had to pick.
Battery life?
Rooted, debloated, stock Sammy ROM
Stability?
Same as above. Stock ROM.
Kernel?
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Included kernel.

just installed latest and its really good (subjective) https://download.lineageos.org/kltedv

ROM? Sammobile (select unbranded firmware).
Root? SuperSU
xposed? Check xposed for Samsung thread

Had my S5 for more than two years, and the circle is closed. Will be running stock with Magisk, Xposed and the Boeffla-kernel for the rest of its remaining life (1-2 years). Most important for me is stability and battery life. I miss the synchronised volume with BT though that LinageOS got.

I'm using
G900FXXS1CQH1
I can make a dump. So you just have to install the rom and the needed apps.
There is no more i can find to optimize.

Im using MM Lite, very fast n heavily debloated...
xposed is working too...
So far so good...

Yes. But it's an old Securitylevelpatch and some useful apps from samsung ain't on board.

Can you please give me suggestion what to do with my Samsung S5? (just root phone and leave stock or install some rom?).
The reason I want to root is that now phone is sometimes slow. I have problems with messenger and whatsap apps for the past 1 year. Also there are some random bugs where phone freeze for several seconds or just restart.
For me, it's most important that phone and internet are stable/no freezing or dropping (I share internet from phone to PC for work). Also, I would like top
not have so many applications.. only those necessary and I will install what I want from google store.

Try crdroid. It's has great battery life, is really fast and no bugs, as far as I know. Been using it for months now.

Using first 6.0.1 stock rom, and all is good.

Old thread but why make a new one for the same question. What's the best performance/battery rom for nougat right now? I'm on KLTE. Tried crDroid then went with stock lineage and I honestly think its crap.

If you are not concern with your battery life, you can try DOT OS or HAVOC and also, you can try flashing a custom kernels like Darkonah, PHB or Azure, both have overclocked feature for squeezing more power. but for me, better stick with stock rom for better battery and decent performance. :good::good:

Thanks for the advice bro. Im currently using MIUI and this iscthe first time i use custom rom on X00TD and i actually amazed by the battery life and performance of this rom. Im just wondering how other roms performs

Ok, man. The rom which has best gaming performance, least memory usage in this forum is LineageOS but it doesn't have many customization. Look for a Balanced ROM? Try DotOS.

Havoc is a heavy customized ROM and will not give good performance. I tried it and don't have good game performance.
Sent from my ZenFone Max Pro M1 using Tapatalk

HAVOC is no good imho (bad gps lock and random phone shutdowns)
i tried a LOT of roms over the last year and i just reverted back to latest stockrom since each and every rom seems to have its drawbacks
what works in one rom doesnt work in the other and vice versa
what i would like is a fully debloated stock rom with a battery saving kernel but i have been able to find a rom that has that

I just want to update this thread. Its been almost 5months since i made this thread. Now i have the samw question. Who among you guys know the best rom for gaming? Thanks kn sdvanced.
