custom rom recomandation / advice - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

//

One see multiple identical questions .
Two their is no best rom nor best battery rom.
You posted 3 roms you read the instructions and threads .
Decide which one you are capable of installing .
Custom roms are not 100% perfect you decide after reading .
<which is stable for everyday use, no big bugs, battery friendly, well optimized, and easy to install.>
Thats called Samsung stock rom .

//

No rom better its user choice .
Repeat install the rom where you understand the instructions first.
Magma is the most current.
But read the OP and FAQS first.

How do I choose a kernel?

Hello. I searched the forum but didn't really find an answer.
I was until 5 minutes ago with the MIUI rom. I know the last kernel I flashed was the cyanogenmod kernel (which I used with another rom...can't remember which one because I flashed 5 roms in 1 day).
I wanted today to abandon MIUI because I was having problems with the display timeout...and some other things, compatibility with applications and details were not really good for me.
So I flashed now the rcmixhd, downloaded from rom manager. What kernel should I use?
And....is a kernel independent from the rom? Will a rom not work with the proper kernel?
*deep breath*
By going through the kernel threads, reading about them, seeing what others say then choosing a few to try, add them, try them, make a decision, keep one.
Just like your radio question and your ROM question it comes down to two things:
1. Your particular hardware capabilities - Some devices like some kernels better than others.
2. What YOU want from the kernel and how much YOU think it's the best one for YOUR situation / wants / needs etc.
Only YOU can decide what one YOU like the most subject to them working ok with your particular handset (this is particularly true for overclocking).
As a rule of thumb, if you're not fussed about over-clocking or BFS vs CFS etc. then what ever kernel the ROM creator advises.
Now please, pretty please, use the link in my sig to find more in depth answers as this question has been asked too many times already.
You don't pick the kernel, the kernel picks you.

Separate sticky thread for maintaining the index for roms,kernels

Guys as the title tells, can someone experienced enough create a sticky thread for listing all the custom roms and kernels that are available for our galaxy s2?
And also regularly updating it when new roms are released. It will be much helpful.
As i dont have enough time regularly im not in a position to do that.
It hasn't happened yet for a good reason - there's still a debate about what can be defined as a custom ROM and what can't.
See the first post in the "Android development" section. Passions run high there.
I find it relatively easy to look at the headlines rom XXX v1.2 .
Any list is going to be meaningless unless it had a full and active update of the actual improvements on that version .
Some roms are not going to fit into any pattern particular Kitchen roms with multiple builds.

Best Rom for note III

I tired from flashing the roms every days cannot find stable rom to stay with
can you share with me everyone here which rom you use now and happy with
Firstly, flashing a rom everyday isn't going to help with stability issues, and sometimes you will have scripts left over from previous rom that messes with new rom. You need sometimes 3-4 battery cycles to see if phone is stable.
We don't know what you're using your phone for... but generally it depends if you want stock rom experience or AOSP/CM.
Generally speaking, sticking closer to stock will be more stable because less modifications done. But current Lollipop isn't the best most stable android either.
With that in mind, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development and find some stock (TW based) roms to try out. Make sure you do full wipes to clean previous rom (include wiping system).
*PS - it's not a good idea to ask people what's the best rom (and actually against forum rules). It's too subjective. Same with stability. How I use my phone and how others use it will also determine how stable the phone reacts, etc.
Good luck!
Best rom threads are frowned uppon and are usualy closed within hours.
But as said before try a rom for more than a day.
And make sure you wipe caches and such (also mentioned in almost every howto)
Try factory reset, and make sure you have the correct software for your hardware. As there are like 8 different types of Note3's...
And as in the nice post above this one Lollipop isnt all that stable.
Just get the rom that has what you want and test it for a week or so. and then for stability issues go to the forum thread you got it from and read up. As it might have a solution for your issues.
I would add to the above only this - Read the thread BEFORE you flash and make sure you understand the steps to follow AND what the issues are. Nothing worse than someone posting on page 10 of a thread that they have 'X' problem when it was dealt with on page 2.
Read many times, flash once is the best policy

Have few questions about ROM 1:
1. Is it modified or completely stock?
2. Do I have to flash it using TWRP or SP Flash tool?
3. Will OTP updates possible later on when available?

Good idea reviewing ROMs.:good:
A few suggestions...
1. Always mention the OS version in your reviews and/or the devices supported(if applicable)
2. Instead of having ROM 1, ROM 2 etc in Bold simply write the ROM name and developer name in bold
3. Free RAM is often not a very big problem with custom ROMs. Overall performance, switching between apps, smoothness after a long time between reboots...all this matters.
4. Add whether a ROM supports theming... If yes, then Layers themes or CM themes or VIBEUI themes
5. Linking to the ROM threads or description pages might be a good idea
These might sound like nitpicking, but beleive me these things make reviews carry much more weight. Congratulations on the effort. Keep it up.

Best rom and kernel that works with magisk/pokemon go?

I have the note 3, and off course I want it to run smoothly and have good battery life. However, when I tried some roms and kernels, none seemed to work with magisk and pokemon go, which I want. I tried different tricks to solve this problem, but none worked. So, which rom and kernel can I use to make sure pokemon works, but still maybe use a rom thats better then the samsung original one?
You should retitle your thread to the question asked.
To rom that works with pokmon as your title.
You could read thread posted 7 june as well.
Your thread title asks a question that has been answered multiple times. No best rom or kernel.
Eleo posted this on another thread .
You need to read and search ("pokemon go") in magisk thread in XDA.
