You could try running a GSI. See this guide. I have the original AOSP builds linked in the guide but you can substitute any GSI you want, such as AndyYan's LineageOS GSIs or phhusson's Treble GSIs.

Paranoid Android for Samsung GS5 G901F

Hi Everyone,
Please can anyone advise me if the Samsung GS5+ G901F variant is supported by Paranoid Android?
Please be gentle as I have not been on these forums for a while.
I am eager to root and take the ****e that is Touchwiz off the phone, in addition to improving battery life.
I am looking for a slim smooth rom and all my research points in the direction of Paranoid Android.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please remember this is the G901F not G900F.
Thanks,

The premise is pretty simple.
If it's not available on http://get.aospa.co, then it isn't officially available from PA.
If it's not on xda, then someone probably hasn't ported aospa to it.
Guess that's a no then.
Thanks for your response. The search continues...

Requesting LineageOS custom rom for Lenovo Phab 2

I've been using lineageOS ever since until now with my Lenovo Zuk z1 and the experience are so smooth with all the customization included on this well developed rom.
So my request to you guys, if you could please create one for Lenovo Phab 2 - 650M, I would really appreciate that and other people looking for the best custom rom that we can use to this device.
Please hear my request LineageOS team. We trust your rom for our daily needs. Thank you and more power.
Regards,
I second this request. The device in hardware is amazing but it sucks to be stuck in MM 6.0. If a Moto G2 from 2014 can get at least Linageos 14.1 there's a good chance that our phab2 can handle it too. Help please!

Why no Resurrection ROM

Dear experts, I used to love the Resurrection ROM on several devices, including the S7. So my question is ...
+++ Why is there no (viable) Resurrection ROM for the S8 / S8+?? Are there technical reasons? Is anyone (still) working on a solution? ++++
Thanks!
This thread should be in Q&A section not in Development section..

Well its well know that the reasons behind the lack of fully working AOSP roms are locked bootloader on snapdragon variant of s8/s8+ and no proper documentation for exynos variant

Non GSI ROMs (where did they go)

Title says it all, most of the updated rom is for GSI users which I find complicated to install at least for me a non developer inclined guy, anyways, why are developers focusing on GSI roms? are they better than non GSI roms? Its been sad that to see developers of our beloved device especially non GSI rom have come to halt.
Hopefully some of the developers that are still active here could create a non GSI rom to bring back our phone to life. This is just my humble request.
Thanks and best regards. :good:
