samsung s4 custom rom please rec - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed custom rom AISP to a note 4, one bug only, if switched OFF not standby the battery runs out 3 days, if battery removed replaced its allright, so unusable.
If I now flash the samsung s4 am I likely to have the same problem,.
(I loaded loads of other roms on note 4 but all had bad bugs, freexing camera, bluetooth not work etc,)
May I have a recommendation for a custom rom for s4 if anyone has one loaded with everything working. Ideally pie or orio .
If anyone has found a rom which works properly on note 4, grateful if ud recommend.

[GT-I9505] Need TW-based ROM decision help

Hi there,
I have some serious problems here. I used a Galaxy S2 for two years now and since "day one" I got my phones rooted and flashed custom roms. You could say I am some kind of a flashoholic - need to have the best, newest, fastest all the time. For one month now I have got a new Galaxy S4. Sounded like a good decision as I'm using it most of the time for internet and taking photos.
But till today, I am unsatisfied. My Galaxy S2 went from "Checkrom Revolution" to "Omega" and then all the updates from "Cyanogen 9" to 10.1-RC3 (not sure if the versions are correct, just call it the latest 4.2.2 version). For a month now I'm flashing myself through the whole forum, but none of the roms seem to work as flawless as my Cyanogen was on my S2. Some problmes I discovered (I wont mention which problem occured on which ROM as I simply can't remember):
- unstable WLAN
- bad signal for 3G/H+/4G
- bad signal for phone (S2 had 3 of 4 bars while the S4 only gets 1 to 2 of 4 bars at my home)
- bad battery lifetime (for example: newly flashed "Phoenix Rom" gave me 2 or 3 full days of standby (WLAN on all the time), while "Echoe Rom v9" seems to drain it like hell (loosing 30% within 3 hours ?!?)
- crashing initialization setup (at the beginning, where you setup WiFi, Google and device name and stuff)
- no Samsung Cam (well, its not a bug, but I love the features like slow-motion videos and the image burst mode to select the best one afterwards. So when I realized that only TW roms have the samsung cam, I only tried those roms)
- Samsung Cam freezes in 9 of 10 cases when I try to catch a slow-motion video.
- and my newest addition: flashed a new rom yesterday, flashed the newest modem with odin afterwards (I9505XXUEMK9), then flashed the WiFi-Fixed-Version, and since then, I have no sound at all. All volume levels are maxed but I get no single beep from it
I'm sick of it. I just want a modem which gives best signal quality and a ROM with a flawless working Samsung Cam. Do you have any ideas?
Going to flash some rooted stock-rom with an older modem now and try to get my sound back...
Modem is dependable from your location. You hava to test it out.
My favourite Roms for battery life and everything working fine are:
Echoerom newest Builds
Google Edition 4.2.2 and 4.3 by Jamal.
I also testes lots of Roms, but many got lags or other problems which i didn't have in the Roms i told you

OmegaRom is awesome! Wlan/Hsdpa/et cetera all working perfect, plus the integrated xposed installer app makes it really comfortable. plus, my antutu benchmarks compared to stock mh5 rom went up by 2000 points

Well... to late...
Found out (after the flash) that this stock fw got this knox bullsh!t in it.... damn. As long as I can't downgrade the bootloader (oder flash roms + root without setting 0x1) I guess I will have to stay on stock samsung roms... -.-"

I was in the same boat as you, but I really couldn't take the stock TW lag anymore. So I decided to root and flash a custom rom knowing the it would set 0x1..besides, there probably isn't going to be a fix for knox anytime soon.
A difficult decision.

Flash back to original rom - Maybe you can try Xposed framework and do all the custom stuff you get on other roms. -
You should try all roms , but my experience each rom has one strong point and one weak point.

After I found out that this knox 0x1 is just doing the same thing as Sonys "go to this page to get a code to unlock the bootloader" - by which I mean, it tells the developer that you played with their software; and what I have done on several phones by now - I come to the conclusion, that knox 0x1 won't really bother me.
You are so right. This default rom is really... well... bad. It feels slow and I miss my root Well, loading some roms now.
As the cam is most important for me (and for the roms I tested it works best / most stable on Samsung Stock), I will flash one rom after another, try the slow-mo-cam, and if it won't work, I flash the next one.

[Q] Help me chosing a ROM for my Note 4 (SnapD: N910F) with a working Xposed

Hi all, I come from a Note 2 which I loved, but it was asking for a replacement..
So I have recently bought a Note 4 SnapDragon (N910F), It came with LoliPop 5.01,
LP5 is not that bad, but I haven't been able to make Xpose run on it..
So I decided to go back to KK4.4, tried several 4.x ROMs, but the only only one that has worked so far is the X-Note Rom.
(Some KK4.4 I tried to download just are not available anymore, or they didn't work on my phone,
others asked for Samsung activation, the download audio trick doesn't work)
Now (with KK4.4) Xposed is running flawlessly (same as on my old note2), but..
I'm having some issues with screen lag when writing or browsing, and a factory mode message every reboot
(tried the rm efs subdir, but it just isn't there)
I also have no clue how to make my home button wake up the phone (with LP5 it was doing it)..
So besides that, I would like you guys to recommend me a ROM for my note 4, that just works fine with Xposed.
I don't care if kk4.4 or lp5..
Thanks in advance,

I've had the same issue with every Rom both kitkat and lollipop (factory mode). It's your WiFi. If you reboot your phone with WiFi switched on this message appears. I think the problem is Knox related. The only solution ihr found is to wait twenty seconds after your pin code and then switch WiFi on.

Actually every deodexed Lollipop is xposed ready so you are free in your choice. All of available roms at Snapdragon section are good so it depends what you want. Some are more design oriented, other tend be as lightweight, as smooth as possible and so on. So it is difficult to suggest you something with just xposed compability Provide more info what is important for you or just look around in snapdragon development section

New to Zenfone 5 Scene at XDA

Hello,
I've been using my Asus Zenfone 5 for last 3 years. It came with Jelly bean and got updated till Lollipop. After the Lollipop upgrade there were a lot of issues including battery, signaling, storage and apps crashing.
I followed some tuts and recently downgraded to KitKat. Having no issues for now.
I get an on-screen time of 4 hours and 11 minutes. Not sure if it's supposed to be bad or not. I'm looking to flash an AOSP ROM, preferably KitKat or Lollipop based as I'm tired of ZenUI and the poor battery backup.
I've previously used a Moto E, Galaxy SIII and Moto E2. I kept the Zenfone instead because of the better hardware and features it offers.
Also if you link me to a ROM, be sure to link the flashing instructions as well. I'm using dual SIM.
Thanks.
Kitkat and Lollipop cooked rom has quite lot of issues. If I were you, I would pick a Nougat rom
Nougat ROM is more stable than KitKat? Interesting. This is the first time I'm hearing of it. Can you link me to a good ROM?

Here's one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...-resurrection-remix-n-5-8-0-tank0412-t3548135
Of course u must know the basic, flash recovery, rom,..
The only issue that every Asus devices must accept when install a custom ROM is can't use GPS and fmradio. (A-Gps still ok).
I used RR Android 6 rom for a few months. After boring issues etc. I went back to the modded Stock Android 5 but after a few months of usage i realised its worse and yesterday I installed Android 7 RR rom. It's perfect, just like a new phone.

Phronesis Debloating Script for Note 3 (SM-N900V) with KitKat OS?

Hi,
Am using my Note 3 (SM-N900V) with KitKat OS only for watching videos and listening to music (No Internet, WiFi, or Phone).
There is some bloatware that would like to remove and have used Application Manager to stop them and does not cause any problems but have to do each time I start.
Recently found "[Tool][Universal Debloater][02.03.2017] Brought To You By The Phronesis Team...." https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/tool-brought-to-phronesis-team-t3566156
and am wondering if anyone has any experience using it?
Thanks
Ken
