[Q] Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 - which custom ROM should i use? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. Can someone tell me which custom ROM is great for my device? I want to improve the performance (if its possible). I think that TouchWiz is very laggy. Is that possible to improve performance in games too? I'm complete noob in this things so i'm asking you. I heard that custom rom and kernel can make my phone faster. What ROM/kernel you recommend?
P.S. Sorry for bad english

just look in android development and original development sections of the s3, there you have plenty of choice, and by the way they are all brilliant. try them out and look for yourself, which one suits you best. if you want more performance you could also combine them with a custom kernel. Just read the description, FAQs etc in the rom/kernel threads before flashing anything.
I personaly am using temaseks unofficial rom (cm11 kitkat version) in combination with devil dualboot kernel and I'm very happy with it. But that's only one possiblity.
And now happy trying and flashing
This rom will get closed since its a "best rom" thread xD
Sent from my GT-I9300.
Give a thank if i helped you.
Hi!
I like the NeatRom most, this is the best ROM for me, I had ever. The problem for me with CyanogenMod is the System loudness. It dont work with Navigon correctly.

[Q] ROM questions. Please help

Hey everyone i have a few questions about cyonogenmod 11 or basically any kitkat launcher. I have a Galaxy S3 SGH-T999

wrong forum. this is i9300. t999 is here
but in fact:
1) no, samsung gimmicks are based on samsung framework and won't work on aosp based roms, either you find alternatives or someone who has ported it (what is quite unlikely)
2)no, see 1
3) ask in the correct forum
4) best fastest kernel questions violate the rules. test for yourself and make your own opinion

Sorry for the hassle. im quite new to xda. thanks for your kindness.
I will revisit my question

wich ROM?

hello,
i searching for a stable Rom for a friend for the galaxy ace.... he is a absoute noob and his phone is very slow.... wich Rom should i use?
thanks for the answers!
@made-in-tirol, Ace GT-S5830i/C/M/39i known as Cooperve device, comes with the official version 2.3.6 (Gingerbread) which, can be rooted and be optimized into perfection without any serious custom mod installation for person who has no need of tinkering with his/her device constantly. ( flashing some custom kernel is needed to maintain full performance and battery optimization, if you have problems).
FYI there is no Rom, which labeled as "most stable". However from my experience I encountered fewer bugs; regular flow of updates when I used Touchwiz Resurrected V2. On the contrary though some people prefer CM7 ROMs over any other non cyanogen mod any day

Kernel, ROM... What should I change?

Hi, guys!
First, I love the S6 edge. Beautiful, nice design and features... But I´m having issues with the multitasking, battery and general speed. I´m currently in 5.1.1 STOCK and I´m thinking in a change. So, as far as I know there are 2 options; change the ROM or else change the Kernel.
The ROM I found the best is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/development/rom-carhdrom-1-t3111519/page111
And the Kernel is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/orig-development/tw-simplkernel-t3091094
So, my question is if I should just change the Kernel or I should go for the whole ROM. I am not really sure if changing the kernel will make things faster and with better battery life...
Can you help me with this? I would also need ROOT access, s o maybe the ROM is a good option as the Kernel doesn´t have ROOT as far as I know.
Thanks, guys! I really appreciate your support!
Well most ROMs here are using Stock kernel, so i suggest u flash a ROM of ur choice, the ROM makers do some tweaking that surely make the phone feel snappier.
Good Luck.
First of all, you should read the forum rules. This doesn't belong into Android Development.

I need a good lolipop rom for my Galaxy s2 gt-i9100

Hello, can someone help me with a good lolipop rom for my Samsung Galaxy s2 gt-i9100
I need a lolipop rom with good battery life because i tried a lot of roms wich had horrible battery life or just something to improve the battery life.
Thank you
I hope no one will rape me, as I'm answering your not allowed question, but you'd try resurrection remix with pre-installed dark theme. Guess more battery life can't be expected on other lollipop roms. Lollipop in general needs more battery than the other Android versions in my opinion.
You can find the rom by searching for "galaxys2root".
In the section Galaxy s2 roms the latest for gt-i9100 will be rr.
Good luck

All lollipop ROMs have the same battery problem. You can flash all of them if you want, but all will give the same results. Go with kitkat if you want better battery life, personally Slimsaber 4.4.4 is my favourite. Or even better, Stock 4.1.2 is a good option in terms of battery life. I can not answer your question directly due to rules found on XDA.
regards, gsstudios
RESURRECTION REMIX : Good for various settings but not too stable. I faced random reboots sometimes.
DIRTY-UNICORNS : I have system space issue with this rom. I am using custom pit for increasing system partition, but while flashing this rom; it repartitiates again to stock 5xx mb system partition. I donot know why
SlimLP : Good enough for daily use but have some bugs.
CyanogenMod 12.1 By Lysergic Acid : He is very good developer. Nice rom, it fits best of all above roms for daily use.
You can find all these roms here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives

'Best' and 'Good' are closely related, so therefore it applies (don't want to sound like some kind of moderator here). But since OP is new member, we can let off with a friendly reminder.
