I want to ask a couple of questions if someone would be so kind as to clear my doubts.
1.-Is the camera much worse using a custom rom based on pure Android like PE or CrDroid compared to the stock rom?
Is there much difference between using a modified stock rom like Beyondrom or using the factory one?
thanks...

Hi all.
I just recently got my Sprint Galaxy S4 and yesterday I successfully rooted it using Chanfire's auto-root and then installed the custom bootloader using GooManager. Everything worked well and I'm all set there.
I'm currently "in the market" for a decent and stable ROM compatible with the S4. I'm not a developer, so I'm not really interested in experimental ROMs that could potentially be unstable.
I'm looking for something solid, user friendly, that will increase phone performance while still letting me do the stuff I love.
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Forcerom but honestly the most stable will be stock ROM

TouchWiz is the stock Samsung launcher.
When you flash a TouchWiz ROM you will typically retain most of the "gimmicky" features that the S4 came with (IR blaster, air sensors, etc.) You may also notice better battery life on TouchWiz ROMs until AOSP is better calibrated for the S4. (Some may disagree with this, I personally see better battery life on my S4 on a TouchWiz ROM.)
AOSP means Android Open Source Project, which just means it's barebones vanilla android with no manufacturer skin/overlay over the top.
These are typically run by people who want a pure stock android experience.

My suggestion....read the OP of each ROM and decide what is right for YOU. No one likes the same exact features as you.
Then make a backup and try each candidate for a day. Don't like it? Restore your backup and try another.
You will never regret giving Blu Kuban a try.
I have a stupid question. I have tried to search but apparently I am not using the right keywords. I barely post, and when I do it's only when I can not actually find the answer myself. So hopefully you can bare with me and keep the flaming to a minimum.
I have been looking for a custom rom. There are a few that I have wanted to check out, however I actually do like and use the samsung camera features like drama shot, etc.
Is there a cm or aosp based rom that someone could recommend that offers those camera features? Or basically am I stuck just debloating my stock rom if I want to keep them? Not that I find too much actually wrong with the stock rom, I was just looking to play around and try out some of the different projects out there.
Thanks for the help guys in advance. I hope I was clear enough in what I am looking for.

You have to flash a TW based rom.

Are you saying there is a touchwiz based (debloated) rom that has the AOSP overlay and features. I've been using slim rom (love it) but was thinking. Couldnt you theoretically have a TW based ROM and have the AOSP ontop of it. I love the look of AOSP way more than touch wiz.

Your best bet is to go with a debloated Touchwiz-based ROM based on the much more up to date International firmware. Goldeneye 4.0 is the way to go for me.
You can even install MODs like the xposed framework/nolimit that all you to really customize the look of your phone.
HI everybody.
I tried to enjoy stock and stockbased roms but AOSP is much better for me, but it's hard to check all AOSP Roms If I need fully operational phone in my work every day.
Can you advise me best and most stable Lollipop AOSP based ROMs? Thank you in advance
That's what I have been looking for for awhile.. There are definitely stable kit Kat roms but the lollipop AOSP roms I have tried all seemed to have bugs . And for whatever reason my phone absolutely does not like the hybrid bootloader that u need for AOSP roms.

I am using Vanir when I want to use an AOSP rom. It is fast,it isn´t bloated with unnecessary functions.
But if you want an AOSP with lots of features,I suggest Ressurection Remix.
After trying lots of ROMs 5.1.1 and 6 that didn't make me happy I'm back on stock 5.0.1 which was the last release for my phone. I like it the best since it's the only ROM that hasn't major bugs and it remains fast over time where the custom ROMs suffer from major lag after time and weird crashes I do not experience in the stock ROM.
I would like however to get rid of all the bloatware.
Is there a stock ROM which is optimised and debloated? I don't seem to find one and I've looked around believe me.
Hope anyone has a good tip.
Sorry bro,can't help you but
There is a rule where you shouldn't post "what ROM to chose"
So your thread needs to be closed

I don't think you actually can ask people for these kind of stuff on the Original Android forum.. This need to be asked in General Stuff i think or its just not asked and try yourself or in the ROM forums itself to ask how stock it is i dont know.
Ok thanks
Mods will move this thread to Q&A shortly, but if you're looking for customized stock ROMs, you want to look in the Development subforums, instead of the ORIGINAL Android Development subforums.
Hello, my big brother is recently considering buying a Nexus 6P and I was wondering if I can do something for him, and I thought it might be a good idea if I install a new ROM (stable and light) his new phone, so I asked him if it's all right and he agreed but then I asked myself what ROM on Nexus 6P should I recommend him to install.
So I need you guys (the pros) can give me a stable ROM other than the Original ROM, and all I can think of is Resurrection Remix but on the XDA youtube channel the guy said it's not very stable, so could you guys be so kind and give me a recommendation? Should my brother stick with the Original ROM or should he switch to a new ROM? and if he should switch what ROM can install?
Thank you
If you just want stability then the stock rom is the best job for that,if you want light roms then Slim6 or Uberstock is the way to go, and if you want solid all-rounders then jgcaap's CM13 builds or Beans' PureNexus rom are really good.
Pure Nexus is probably the way to go, it's based on stock but has some good useful features thrown in.

You have to take things into consideration like if he uses Android pay. Some Roms don't have support for it. While custom Roms are fun sometimes they lose features that built in to stock
