Gear VR on android 9 ported roms - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hello. Do you guys know of anyway to have gear vr working on those roms? It seems like it does not work on any of the current ones, am I right?
Regards

It works on mine, i use BlackDiamind N8

It works on lightrom as well. As long as its a samsung based rom, it should work. You just need necessary apps

[Q] SGS IV CM 10.1 with stock apps?

Hey ho Folks,
I'm a Flashmaniac since i got my SGS2 2 1/2 years ago and used 10+ different Roms.
I've got my new SGS4 Since yesterday, rooted 5 min after i unboxed it... put CM 10.1 on,
recovered all apps from my Old one and i'm nearly happy.
But!
I've like to get some of the Original Samsung apps back on... like the TV Remote or SmartStay ...
I searched here to get a dump of all apps but couldn't find them...
Therefor ... does anybody know how i get them, ether from an original Rom image or elswere?
Best Regards
Tig
CM framework is different from Touchwiz one, so you can't use samsung features/apps on CM, thats a cons from using CM

[Q] PACMAN ROM help

Hello, I've been using PACMAN ROM for a good like 6 months now and I love how it makes my huge Note 2 into a tablet looking thing. I haven't been able to pull the trigger on getting a Galaxy Gear watch yet because I didn't know if it worked with the rom and I'd rather keep the rom than have the limited functions that the watch currently has right now.
I was wondering if the PACMAN rom worked with Galaxy Gear or if there's a way that I can add Galaxy Gear functionality into the rom somehow.
Thanks in advance.
I dont think there would be any way... these things (like snote and other features) depend on the samsung firmware... you'll probably need to revert to a sammy rom to use galaxy gear... make a backup to make it easy for u to revert...

[Q] Lightweight Rom for S5?

Slim Rom (and many other developers) have not yet come up with a version for S5. I am really fed up with touchwiz though and was wondering if there is a way i can use Slim Rom version for Galaxy S3 or S4 and install it on the Galaxy S5? I don't care if that means i have to go back to older versions of Android. Or is there another light weight ROM available for the S5? I take anything that is working better than what Samsung offers us
Thks!

1.) I can understand your feelings about TouchWiz, though it is better (and much bigger) than it used to be.
2.) I don't think you can simply modify a S3 or S4 ROM, as the hardware is different, that might take some time
3.) I would hate to no longer be able to use the camera as is. I don't know (and care) about videos, but it's quite good for Photos and quite fast, too.
Best of luck
Sven
You cannot install a ROM from an S3/S4 on an S5!! Absolutely not!! If you haven't figured that out then you should avoid custom ROMs like the plague.

thanks kenny for the reply, but is there any way to make it happen??
I'm very pleased with the lock and feel of pure android 5.1.1, and really want to have my gear back working with the phone

Same here. There was a workaround for 5.0 but not 5.1.1 yet. And for devs making cm another tw is not in the plan. The problem is not cm, but Samsung and any other companies that build apps for their own build of Android.
Look at play store, almost all apps there are working on any android hardware wise supported phones. Just like they work on cm.
I have a gear 2 and a note 3 running CM12.1. I chose to port Android Wear to the watch and very happy with it, even though the battery life is not as good, the overall watch experience is much better (no speakerphone or camera). Much better notifications, and the available apps seem better.

The secret lies in TW framework, my dear
I hope someone will give us a clue, cause I'm not going back to TW, at least on my current phone the note 3, and I really want to be able to pair my watch again

Yes, but what is the point making cm another tw? No devs will ever do it. The problem is Samsung that builds apps only flag tw.

S8 rom is it worth it to flash?

Hi.
Is it worth to flash s8 rom on s7e?
Is there a rom with working shealth and NFC (android Pay)?
I don't have warranty so this is not a problem, I just wonder is s8 roms are much better then stock s7e.
P.S. Is note 8 rom is available already?
Thanks for answers.
I think that is better to wait for this
https://www.phonearena.com/news/Samsung-Galaxy-S7S7-edge-may-soon-get-Galaxy-Note-8s-new-UI_id98427
i have flashed the full s8 v7 and it has working android pay with root (which is fine). i am afraid of bt i had problems this morning with headphones it was constantly turning on/off but later today it was fine so dont know if there is issue with bt5.0 vs old one...but should as it uses the kernel for s7e...hmm dont know now really as i have used s7e rom (original one) brefly...looks ok but need to see for longer time....
anyone one can tell main differences between s7e roms vs s8 rom? (feature wise)
