Hey guys,
I have an S7 edge running stock since I purchased it. Feel like flashing custom ROMs in it but need some suggestion from S7 edge users. Many would have flashed many custom ROMs in their S7 edge and how does it feel running a stock ROM and custom ROMs.? Is it better in Stock or in custom ROM?. I am not a serious user of Samsung Pay, Private mode, Secure folder so I can live without these things. My only concern is the stock camera pro mode. Any of you have a replacement similar or better than stock camera in custom ROMs?. Please suggest.
Thanks.

Having a Custom rom gives you more power over your phone, you could customize more than what your stock would give, remove the bloatwares and increase performance of the phone.
You gotta find a custom rom that supports your device number.
pros:
fingerprint unlock on reboot
s9 s8 features
sometimes performance and charging are better
can do different things with root access
cons:
s9 and s8 features are usually incomplete or partially bugged if not entirely
sometimes performance is worse
gear vr doesn't work on ports correctly
if u mess up something or innately the rom has problems it can cause a bootloop
notes:
stock camera is better than s8 or s9 camera because it has to stretch the image somewhat
my bank didn't support samsung pay so i didnt care

Hello everyone!
First thread here. Been a long time lurker and been grabbing and flashing custom ROMs for the nexus 5 until i switched to the note 4 (beautiful device, really). Well, since i cant post in the development thread due to my status as a new member, i thought kd post my inquiry here.
Im looking for custom ROMs for the 910c variant. I prefer to keep the TouchWiz features so AOSP ROMs, even though great, are not what im looking for. Glamor rom ported from the s6 seems very tempting, but being based on 5.0.1 (2?) Im a bit skeptical about it. My 910c is running on stock unrooted 5.1.1 which is great in terms of performance and battery life and id appreciate it if i could be directed on custom ROMs based on this build (any sign of a note 5 port? That would be ideal).
My problem with the 5.0.x builds, apart from the various bugs that the amazing, most talented devs have surely taken care of is that i read somewhere in the development forum (exynos) is that if i make a backup of my phone (running on 5.1.1) from kies and restore it on a custom ROM based on 5.0.x, well, im gonna have problems.
So....any recommendations?
All help would be appreciated
base on s6 port... i can recommend 2...
Sixperience http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-sixperience-s6-port-v1-0-stable-t3190233
Glamor http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/glamour-s6-rom-t3136786
glamor got a screen freeze problem... but not everyone got it... I prefer sixperience for stable usage. Sixperience dev are currently porting N5 apps. When will it be release... cant say but he has make a great progress.
Base on 5.1.1
Wanam Lite http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-wanamlite-clean-odex-xposed-t2923266
eRobot http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/erobot-rom-note4-n910c-7-xxu1bog1-t3174248
RulingLite http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/4-4-4-rom-tr-rom-t01-super-fast-powerful-t2936453 (this one got a lil s6 apps)
thats all right now...
Im using Sixperience Rom..
Known bugs:
- touch key light not working
- Fingerprint
Best rom I've used so far...
Thanks a lot guy! I'll check out wanamlite and erobot! Hoping glamor rom and sixperience get upgraded to 5.1.1
hi all
I've always used a stock rom for the note 4
I want to have full access on the phone (in order to be able to control network access, for instance for apps forcing LTE mode (advanced network settings) or for battery saving apps that cannot shut down data when needed)
I tired to root my stock rom but that wasn't enough for those apps (forcing LTE or battery saving apps )
Can some tell me which custom rom make that possible ?
thanks
Saw a few different roms for the S7 Exynos version of the phone but not sure which to choose from.
And can they be used for the SM- G935W8 Model?
Suggestions?
Renovate edge is the most stable and clean

What does it offer over the others beside stability and clean?
And more so over stock rom?

First of all, the moment you root your phone and trigger the Knox flag, private mode won't work and secret mode in the Samsung browser is disabled. Renovate fixed this, it's the only rom that is fully functional like a stock rom, and the only one that is consistently stable and without bugs.
There are also a few minor tweaks over stock, that I didn't bother checking them out because I prefer the stock experience with root access.
You can check the tweaks in the ROM thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development/17-03-26-renovate-edge-beta-1-sm-g935f-t3339149
Hi guys,
So after a break I am going back to the S5 (currently in post) and looking forward to trying a load of roms that have been developed since my last use.
I have downloaded latest CM and LOS releases as well as some ports and stock based/modded roms to try but I'm just curious as to which stock based/modded roms you are currently using/prefer/why?
I ask because if using a Sammy rom I am likely to prefer the S5 stock modded since fingerprint scanner should work for lock or in-app like Banking and Paypal etc (Or do some of the ports also work in-app?)
This isn't supposed to be a "best rom" type thread as that is subjective. I'm just interested in what you are currently using (modded stock). There was previously (as far as I remember) an INDEX thread listing all stock based but I am unable to locate it at the moment.
So, any recommendations to try would be appreciated.
It's in my signiature. Beast, long battery life, little to no lags, but for some reason, came without CSC. Download alexndr's devbase ROM and transfer the csc folder from the devbase to the SuperLITE MM zip.

Unfortunately my S5 has just arrived and it's the Plus model (G901F) not the G900F. SuperLITE was going to be first rom I tried but looks like I can't use it? :crying:

As stated, you did not specify the model number. So, G901F lacks custom roms. THere are 1 or 2 out in the wild, but will take some time to find.
So far tried, CM, LOS, RR, Mokee...and best would be RR in terms of functionally but for some reason the N latest version gets my phone hot hot hot. Im on LOS again but thinking of going to older 6 RR.
There is a nice keyboard cover for the S6 Edge+.
The question is, if Lineage OS etc. will support this, since the screen will be automatically reduced if you attach it.
why the hell would you put this on your phone
PS : I will work on stock rom, and stock based custom roms only
Hey guys,
I want to flash a custom ROM on my s7 edge, model SM-G935F.
for the purpose of updating it's firmware and kernel. you know, newer software, more functions, better performance, better battery life. such things.
i'm on android 7.0 at the moment, and want to switch to 8.0 if not newer.
but there are too many options. and i really tried informing myself on the topic.
ROMs with S9 experience sound nice but I don't want to switch my ROM around everytime in the case of bugs.
this topic is so hard for me because in every thread i could see people saying it would be the best ROM they ever had, some say else.
please tell me your experiences with different ROMs.
a must-have is a fix for the securitylogagent, or removel or whatever. it keeps popping up on my phone and its annoying as hell.
thanks for your replies in advance
could someone recommend some?
SuperMan rom is the best
I would reccommend sac23's s9 port but he took the thread down. If its possible I could share a mirror of the zip.
