Difference between Google edition ROM and cyanogenmod 10.1 - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I was just wondering what is the difference they look very similar. I am currently running a TW clean ROM with all the bload ware removed and wanted to try something else. I'm sorry if this is posted in the wrong section!

GE 4.2.2 still has most of the TW framework in it natively. Where as any TW stuff in CM was added.
CM also has more user changeable options. GE is pretty much how it is

I have tried the GE ROM but think I'm going to back up my current ROM and try CM. Not they the GE ROM is bad there are little bug that just annoyed me, but I know that you have been working hard with that port Dubbsy.

It's cool. I'm on slim right now. Lol. When I can't work on my own priests for whatever reason I try to mix it up a bit. :good:

I've tried about all of the current ROM's on my S4. I personally like CM the best. It is the closest thing to a 100% stock Google ROM there is.

I personally would disagree with that. CM has way too many customizations to be anywhere near pure aosp. I'm not saying they aren't welcomed customizations but they are indeed customizations. I personally am not a huge fan of pure aosp because of the lack of customizations baked into the settings.

You really can't go wrong with CyanogenMod. :good:
I'd also recommend ChameleonOS by @Treken as it is sower solid and with personal conversations with trek he has shown to be very knowledgeable and under the same mindset that IMO all Linux/android Devs should be under. That is ask each other questions, share knowledge you gained by doing a task that caused troubles, and in general do not withhold info or ignore other Dev questions. :good:
And for another plug of an aosp ROM id also suggest SlimRom just because it is wicked light and plenty capable.
ChaOS and Slim are the only AOSP ROMs I've ran in over a month on the gs4. My nexus 7 just runs PACman.

AOSP and S-PEN

What do I have to do to get rid of the Samsung and att crap. Keep spen features and benefits and get tweaks from aokp and other various roms. The only reason I stay stock is because hybrid is messy and aosp loses all the features I bought the phone for. Any takers? I know its complicated if not impossible but can you explain what would need to happen here?

The S-Pen app has nothing to with having source or not. The problem is those apps from the stock rom need the TouchWiz framework.
So we would need to rebuild framework compatible cross launcher for aosp?

Stock based Rom quality

I really am happy with the roms for our device up to date. Its not just the powerful hardware that gets me. I have plenty of other devices. Aosp, sense, touchwiz, blur. Out of all of the available roms. I'm really digging these LG roms. The launcher. Q-slide. Its all very functional for me. Oh and the calculator especially.
I think even though I'm dying to try Aosp on this phone like every one else. I think at the end of the day ill still be rockin an LG based rom. I was wondering if anyone else is thinking like me?

[Q] What's keeping TW features out of AOSP roms?

Hey everyone, I'm new here so be gentle. As the title suggests, I am wondering what the physical limitations are that are keeping all the TW features (like air view and gestures) from being implemented in AOSP based roms? I love the "pure" android feel but I also love these features. Thanks for any answers you guys can give.
Tw features require tw framework to work and same thing around with aosp features (halo) to tw, I'm pretty sure someone can even try implementing it but chances are closer to almost impossible as it requires a lot of heavy coding.

So it is technically possible? I understand that it would take a lot of work. I now wonder if any developer would be willing to have a go at it
Many devs wouldn't want to give a go at it it's just too time consuming just to get something ported over, it's technically possible, yes, but just not worth the time.

actually, some devs are working on the google edition roms. which is probably exactly what you're looking for.
The only thing is getting the apks to what you want and getting the developers to work on it and get all the bugs out first

Oh. So that would lead the way to developers integrating TW features?
In a way, possibly. Heard beans tried removing and adding things but the rom became unbootable.

The GE software will pretty much allow you to run TW apps, but as far as features like smart scroll and air view it will likely never happen.

Hmmm. That sucks Thanks for the answers everyone!
The biggest thing is the closed sourced drivers, libs, and jar files on top of the built in framewroks. AOSP stands for open source so you can see where to conflict would be.

[Poll] What ROM is everyone currently using as their Daily Driver? 8/11/13

[Q] What ROM do you guys use as your Daily Driver?
Give your reasons.
List length of time on current ROM.
Provide the hyperlink to the explanation/download page of the listed ROM.
As of 8/11/13:
​This POLL is created from theidoctor's list here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2297370
It may not not include all options out there for our Verizon S4's but it should include the most used and most stable. If your ROM that you use as your Daily Driver isn't listed make a comment and explain why you use it.
This POLL is not to show "Best ROM" it is solely for the purpose of showing "Most Used". This helps show newbies what ROMs are popular and what they should start with. It says to newbies that this or that ROM has been "tried and true" by the masses and should hold up for my demands...
Please Vote and then add your Reply to the Thread also.
Just curious if there is already a poll and thread on this why make another one?

We were missing a couple choices that were obviously wanted and used by many. I couldn't add them to that list.
Also this list you can pick multiple ROMs... IF you actually use multiple ROMs on a Daily basis.

Thanks! Wasn't trying to be a smart a$$ was just curious what was different.
In that case I have tried many roms but only use Eclipse TW based as my daily driver. IMO it is extremely stable and looks great with the aosp mix. Also its the only TW based rom with the AOSP toggles. No other TW based rom has that. Nitro is a genious and works extermely hard to make us all happy. This is the only rom that makes me forget that it is TW based

XGokuSniperX's TurboFist 1.1 rom nightlies have been really stable for me. Pair that with the FeceTweaks and M0ng0l0id's B0n3rJamz Kernel and you're cooking with fire. All other Roms are inferior.

Bonestock has been amazing so far. Stock > ktoonsez kernel for me in terms of battery life. Only lacking an AOSP theme, but for a fairly new ROM, this is great, and the future is bright for the ROM, and Andy is great. ME7 gets rid of most of the bugs in MDK.

Please recommend a TouchWiz ROM

I need a reliable TouchWiz ROM for my note 1 that is reliable and debloated. I don't want my boss to know I removed the AT&T crap and that Cyanogen Mod 10.1 on this phone is flaky

Padawan JB is by far the most popular. To be honest though, all the TouchWiz ROMs here are debloated, so it's a matter of preference.
