Well the title is self explanatory.
With so many AOSP based ROMs available but no Paranoid Android.
As a former Nexus 5 user, paranoid was in my top 3 favorite ROMs for the device.
Would really love to see it on Galaxy S7 Flat/Edge.
What are your thoughts?

Hello there. I recently acquired a Samung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1. I love the tablet but there has been no ROM development as of yet. In my understanding, this is due to the fact that the 8.4 version is much more popular and shares architecture (Snapdragon) with many other devices making it easier to develop for. In looking at the 10.1 specifications, it seemed like the Nexus 10 and Tab Pro 10.1 had many similarities (including Samsung manufacture and Exynos 5 chip). So, my question is whether or not a Nexus 10 ROM could be easily ported to the Tab Pro 10.1? I am not a developer, so forgive my ignorance and naivete if this is a ridiculous question.
If they are very alike it is a bit easier. But you might be better of building from source.

Have you seen this guide? Samsung has that um... unique TW UI so trying to port AOSP based Nexus 10 roms will almost certainly fail (unless there's already CM or AOSP for the Tab but based on what you said that doesn't seem to be the case). Also the Nexus 10 has the Exynos 5 Dual while the Tab uses the Octa. Check out the Exynos Wikipedia page and try a TW based ROM from something else with the Octa but it still seems like a bit of a long shot too me. Good luck.
Also, mrgnex is right that building from source is probably better. But if it's not already supported by CM or AOSP you're out of luck. Samsung has opensourced the code but it seems kind of silly to build a TW ROM from source since most of the custom TW ROMs are just baked from the stock ROM.
As I said, I am not a developer. Thanks for your replies.

Hi,
Could anyone explain why we don't yet have an AOSP ROM for the Note?
I'm looking forward to getting rid of TouchWiz and I'm curious what the challenges are that prevent developers from just compiling the AOSP code to run on the Note 4.
I'm coming from a lot of Nexus devices so I'm not familiar with the roadblocks in developing ROMs for Samsung devices.
You know only samsung can make feature for s pen and other stuff. If this is a normal phone, that would be easy to make a AOSP rom lollipop like my old galaxy tab 10.1 with 3 year old.
But, this is note with only samsung can create stuff for us. So keep calm and wait

I'm not particularly interested in using the S-Pen or all the other Samsung stuff, I just want a replacement for my Nexus 4 that has better specs. All that other stuff can come later or not at all really.
Thanks Batfink33 for the good news, really looking forward to some AOSP or CM goodness
Hi Friends.
I have a 3 yr old Galaxy S2 (GT19100) and I must say this is the longest running phone in the history of my Mobile Phone usage. I have been using Mobile phones from the year 2000 and I must say the technology has advanced so far on the last decade or so that at times I find it difficult to match up with it.
The purpose of this thread is to help Galaxy S2 users to find the best custom ROM's for S2 users. (Dev's and testers your feedback is the most valuable)
Personally, I am a fan of Samsung's Touchwiz skin and I have used Wizzedkat, Jellysnap, Revolution Rom etc and I would like to know your views on which Touchwiz based Rom you find the best and why.
I am yet to try the Fusion and I know there are many more Touchwiz based Roms.
I would appreciate your contribution as this will help all those who are looking for a stable Touchwiz based Rom which works great and gets the most out of our S2.
Sorry, but Best ROMs threads are usually not allowed.
So a mod is likely to freeze this thread.
Discussion might be possible if a thread is framed differently than "Best ROM".
That said, particularly with an older device like the GT-I9100 is now, I prefer AOSP ROMs. I prefer KitKat or Lollipop before older stock ROMs most of the time.
And despite what I, or many others, might feel about the situations about CM and CM Inc, CM11/12 and ROMs derived from it are still in the lead as far as popularity goes, though that lead has diminished over the last few years.
I currently have 18 active Android devices I use for testing my Android apps. And all of them has CM or CM derived ROMs available, except possibly for some Sony's if FXP is considered distinct from CM.
Of course my perspective is that of a developer, mostly doing app testing. Individual devices may have ROM's available that appeal more to people who like UI and other "extra whiz-bang" features.
Neat ROM!! Its awesome, just moved over to the 4.4.4 version if neat ROM and its good.

I've seen a couple of ROMs like these for the Snapdragon powered Note 3 with a lot of S6 apps ported to their ROM. Is any such ROM in development for our Exynos Powered Note 3? For now I'm running Stock Lollipop with some S6 apps like Music, Smart Manager, TW Launcher etc, but It'd be great to have a completely new ROM built with S6 features and such. The phone app looks a lot better and resembles Vanilla android. If anyone is willing to try, I'll help you with the testing part.
Thank you
We got so less developers for note 3 n900 :/
We can't get s6 roms so much early maybe we have to wait for another 5-6 months

So true. but would we ever see a S6 ROM port soon? Even though we have a few devs, they've done some great work like giving us CM12 and such. Hopefully we'll see this too
Need it man....
Hello forum!
After deciding to stick with my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-901T, Trltetmo), I wanted to find new ROMS for the Note 4. However, because it is an older phone I have been coming up with squat. If possible, I'd love recommendations on performance friendly ROMS .
Thanks!
The TEKXodus ROM by TEKHD (found here) is great in terms of performance and battery life and has tons of built-in features with some ported from Samsung's newer phones and is my personal favourite.
There's other popular ones such as FireKat, Rapture, and Maximum OvrDRiVE.
Try checking out the Tmobile Note 4 developement thread (found here) for more ROMs.
