my samsung galaxy player 5.0 seems to love to lag... can anyone help me with some suggestions for less lag and more smoothness.
and as a side topic, how can i make my device not freeze during minecraft? i know for a fact that someone has already posted this, but i may as well say this here also, since it is relevent.
Note: i am sorry if this has already been posted and i have missed it...i went through 8 pages or so and i didn't find anything (except for the one about minecraft)
I would love to help you but...
There are three things I would like to know before hand
1) Do you have custom recovery? (e.g. CWM)
2) If yes to 1, then do you have a custom ROM?
3) If yes to 1 and 2, have you tried flashing any performance mods?

It is up to you to find out if these ROMS etc work with either US or International version.
1. Post only positive suggestions, amendments or point out mistakes
2. Don't post general questions into this thread create new threads in the relevant forum
3. Don't post Thank You, use the THANKS button
4. Be patient, remember I have a life as well and can only change things after you've told me
Before you start modifying your device it is recommended that you enable Usb debbuging :
Settings->Applications->Development->USB debugging = TICK
It's also worth installing adb on your pc in order to provide developers and other users proper debugging/logcat information regarding any issues that you'll later encounter, as this can be a big help when attempting to fix/solve any subsequent problems you experience.
If development on any of the ROMs below or any other entry has been ceased or is no longer valid then I would appreciate if someone (preferably the thread owner (OP)) could contact me and inform me so that I can label it as #CLOSED#. It may also be a good idea for the thread owner to contact the Moderator smokestack76 (or any Moderator) and request that the thread is closed.
Once a ROM thread has had no modifications for a couple of months of months, it will deemed to be #OLD# and I'll mark it as so, in an attempt not to clutter the ROM list, if the thread is still active then please PM me or post within this thread and I'll change it's status, please don't take offense if this is your ROM but, some form of housekeeping must be performed so that the INDEX remains a useful easy to use resource for the community.

Would you mind adding this link to the useful post?

It's information on how to use a Sixaxis PS3 controller with almost every emulator. It's a fantastic alternative considering WiiMotes are not currently supported due to an issue with the chip Samsung uses for Bluetooth (afaik).

Hi,
Can someone make clear to me as a noobie what are the differences between "cores" of the ROMs?
I see there are most favourite ones like "XWLP9" and "AOKP" - what are the differences between them? I see AOKP has more updates from kernel and maybe some other things in addons? Besides XWLP9 seems to me more stable but I only observe rom peoples comments and replys so can someone tell me which ROM core I should be focused on when choosing ROM? Some advices, experiences what you have with them - ADVANTAGES and DISADVANTAGES maybe or something ... I see there are roms like these two from what I want to choose:

Google is your friend.
XWLP9 is the latest stock/official ROM version from Samsung for the SGS2 (GT-I9100).
So, these kind of ROMs are based on Samsung stock ROMs ... with some customizations (e.g. rooted, some removed bloatware, some custom themes/mods, etc.).
The other kind of custom ROMs have AOSP (Android open source project) or ASKP (Android open kang project).
So, they are either on pure Google Android OS or Linux. Usually there is a team of developers who share their parts/versions in binaries and as source code.
The kernel is kind of "core" of the firmware.
Every ROM contains its own kernel, as this is a basic part of the firmware ... and the phone can't work without it.
You can also flash other (custom) kernels on a ROM.
But not every kernel is compatible with every ROM.
OK thank you I read about these two a lot i needed some experienced opinion and clearing it up for me.
What I basically needed was opinions about these two versions from experienced users. If non oficial and trully open made ROM is better and in what ways or is it better to stay on oficial ones etc. This is what i wanted most from this thread ...
Okay, I really like the tweaks of BeanStalk but even with everything "subdued" (i.e. low screen brightness, processor set to max seven-hundred and some megahertz, etc.) I still find the battery life to be close to half of what CM10.2 has. I am not an expert in Android development, but I do have some basic knowledge on the subject. So basicly what I was hoping to do was use the tweaks on BeanStalk on a CM ROM. How do I combine those ROMs for that?
Device: T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy SII (T989) (Hercules)
The BeanStalk ROM I mentioned: BeanStalk 4.3.1001 -- Linaro -- Diablo2.4 Kernel -- [10-01-13]
The CM ROM I mentioned: CM 10.1 -- Android 4.2.2 -- kernel CM 3.0.66 -- (there are updates available fro this ROM which I can download on Monday, when the publick library opens again)
Any and all opinions/thoughts are welcome
I wasn't sure where to post this question but I think it fits best in Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting, since I want to combine a couple ROMs. Sorry if this it is in the wrong place.

You'll have to port it, use this guide:

Hi everyone, after seeing a mammoth 6 to 8 new downloads, can anyone give the best advice and experience:
1. Which is their favourite
2. What does not work in 1 above
3. In the most recent versions bluetooth does not work, can we therefore save the relevant libs-etc-files from a working version, and replace them
4. Does anyone still have the old HWMOD overclocked version, to use as base before trying 1 above
5, Although this has been asked before, how can we repartion the ex SDCard successfully on 301.
Unfortunately I cant post on the developer threads, but I do assure you I have read all of them - approx 750 threads including androidiani.
Many thanks and kind regards to all, and moreso to those who can clarify the above!!!!
:highfive:
To add more to the only debate on this issue, Q_ and A.
Ok We have around 201309 10.1 or 10.2 around the same date the CM version , there is a KitKat release and AOKP.
Saw the thread with a lot of replies concerning the CM 10.1 release and " who likes it". B.T. working, HDMI issues etc etc.
However , given that many , posters seemed to appreciate the 10.1 version , nearly all could not post on the developer thread due to min 10 posting restriction.
So here I am again, asking , which of the original ROM´s, and new ICS, JB or KK versions are the most appropriate for this Mediapad 301 as far as anyone has experience.
The last entry on After_Silence V 10.1 General thread, seems to suggest that CM10.1 201309 is probably the best bet so far, however the KitKat or CM10.2 OR Evervolv, may have evolved since then, anyone any ideas.
Furthermore , given that CM10.1 offers /data/media does this mean I can actually use my Ext. sdcard, instead of filling my measly 5GB sdcard
Any help most appreciated, including any other tips on other versions specific to the Mediapad 301xxx

Hey guys,
I know there are many best ROM threads out there as well as many flavors suitable for all needs. Personally, I just don't have the time test everything until I find the perfect ROM.. So I hope you guys can help me choose a good one considering the list below..
I'm currently using CM11 and although it's a great lightweight rom I miss many basic Samsung stock functions (swipe to call, palm to mute, etc..). I also know some apps should solve this but IMO they don't..
So, I'm looking for a Samsung based rom that's:
- easily installed by pc or cwm recovery
- stable and preferably bug/freeze fix free with everything working
- lightweight and widely supported
- although not essential, preferably with nightlies updates
- either s5 or mini s5 based
- android 4.4.2 or higher
And I think that's it. Thanks in advance.
There are not many 4.4 tw roms to try. Best bet would be to read the threads and see what the user's think. See what the problems are ect ect
