Hi everyone, I just bought my Zenpad 7.0 (2Gb RAM version) but I have feel very disappointed about the performance of it. Very slow (slower than my older device Lenovo Tab 2 A7-10 with MediaTek chipset, 1Gb RAM and GPU Mali-450MP) when playing game
So I think the problem at the stock ROM of ASUS, it have lots of useless apps for me, it takes more RAM, CPU, ... Do you know any custom roms or aosp rom can install with this deivce, please give me the link. I'm looking for AOSP ROM but don't know it can install on my devece or not?
Thank you all, bros.
Same feeling here.
There has been a slight improvement with the recent system update that was available, but overall the tablet's performance is pretty crappy. And ofcourse all the useless bloatware....
I wish I didn't drop my TF300, but what can you do against an accident, right? I've been looking for a custom rom as well, but I got a feeling the mass just knows it's ****.

Hello there,
I've just had an Archos 80 delivered, its the model with a 1GHz processor and 512 RAM. It was second hand and came with 4.0.26 official firmware. I've managed to install the SDE and put [email protected] on it which is based on 4.0.25 and it seems pretty jerky compared to the official ROM which was nice and smooth.
I'd like to have it rooted and optimized for performance, is there a better ROM which would work better for my low spec version of this tablet? I read another thread that said 4.0.6 is the best, but as I've had 4.0.26 on here, does that mean I can't go back to older versions?
Thanks very much for advice

You can go back or forward to any ICS version if you use a rooted stock version (it will behave as a custom version for all intents and purposes).
Other have also said that 4.0.7 is the best version. I use rooted 4.0.26, and recently had about 800 hours of uptime before I reset to test something.
Best Rom
I have almost the same tablet as you except 1.2 GHz so if you want [email protected] the best is ICS_BLUE.V03. Otherwise the rooted 4.0.26 is good if you don't have a lot of media files, Media Center slows my tablet to a crawl scanning my almost 500 music files. The new Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is going to be best when finished, I have almost no problems at all with it.
Hmm ok so I installed [email protected] and it seems a little better. Is it possible to overclock this processor? Do I just need to copy a different kernel?

The GPS is not very functional on 4.0.26. At least not on my Turbo 16GB that is only a few weeks old. I actually went back to 3.2.80.
I have no issues with the Gps in 4.0.26
This screener is made on my tablet.

As you can see, i got a nice and fast fix.
It does seem to work most of the time. Sometimes I have to reboot to get it to detect satellites though.
It seems that every 80g9 acts different even its exactly the same tablet with the same specs.
I guess that i am just one of the lucky ones
Hi there,
is there any custom roms for FHD 10"?
my tablet is really sluggish, and the ram is filled in a very shot time, plus the GPU is also very slow
is there a custom kernel?
anythiing?
Also looking for new ROM for this, anyone woking on this ?
I have android phone with 1GHz processor and 256 MB total RAM, running custom ROM based on android 2.3.5.
I have found Android never been stable as iOS.
I want to handover my phone to my parent where they will not be using any specific android smart features. In fact, it will be used only as feature phone not smart phone.
I want to strip off all the app from android OS without affecting basing network functionality. Then I can install only specific apps. I think, this way I'll have better stable android device.
Can someone advise or provide link/info which apps can be safely removed from android 2.3.5 OS leaving behind so called "minimal android"?
Comparing Apple(s) to oranges, my friend. A 1 Ghz single core processor with 256 RAM and an outdated and not quite optimized version of Gingerbread with most likely poor Chinese coding of the software is not going to make for the most enjoyable experience. This has much less to do with Android than it does in the weak hardware and not as polished software from the manufacturer. But without knowing what kind of phone you have, we'd have no clue as to what you should or shouldn't freeze or uninstall.

Thanks for your reply.
I agree, I have week hardware...which is weakest point.
I have micromax A57 which is an Indian brand may be Chinese base/hardware.
I am already running custom ROM and not stock ROM. At present, I am happy with it's performance after shifting to custom ROM (xzotica v2).
But before handing over it to someone, who is not quite aware of Android and techi....rather leaving it with lots of popups/unwanted FCs/slow performance, I am thinking to strip off it to best possible leaving only core android behind. Then I'll only add app really required.
I am just looking for general guideline if any....for android 2.3.5 minimum base files/apps....

I really appreciate your efforts.
I have checked this ROM earlier. It's good but some error, thats why it has not good user base also.
And, this is not what I'm looking for. I would like to remove all apps without affecting normal booting, not any FC's after removing apps and all radios working.
That's all what I want on my phone. My question regarding what apps can be removed is not ROM specific but android 2.3.5 specific.
Again thanking for your efforts.
Hi,
I own a Redmi Note 3 pro Snapdragon (KENZO) (2GB RAM version) from 2 years ago. At the start I didn't need to use any custom ROM because the phone was fast enough to play games and use every app without lag problems, but on the last 7/8 months, my phone started to feel laggy when I watch some videos on Chrome or Facebook, or when I open webpages with many ads (I use Adaway and Adfree already).
The thing is, lately not only feels laggy, but it closes the app when I demand more resources to my phone, which didn't happen months ago, and I need to try open it again and search the content praying for not beging closed again, it makes me really upset. Right now I'm using Liquid Remix ROM, but I have tried 3 or 4 more ROMs before this one, and I have never found one that fits the low resources my phone has.
I think the problem is the RAM, because with every app in background closed, I don't reach the 400MB free of RAM, so I can't even play games without lag.
I would appreciate if you expert guys tell me about a ROM which has this aspect very developed, I know that there are not better ROMs than another, every ROM has its huge work behind and I don't pretend to infravalorate the work of any of them, but I really need a ROM which consume low recurses for working on idle, so I can use my phone without having this special problem.
Could you please help me?
I know Citrus-CAF was one of the best options for 2GB kenzo, but it hasn't been updated in like half a year, and it's still Android N, but if you have no luck with other ROMs might as well try that.
I have been using Nitrogen OS 8.1 for a couple of months now and I can say that it is worth flashing. The UI is buttery smooth, performance is decent (PUBG feels heavy though) and battery life is good.
I'll try NitrogenOS right now, I know that ROM is famous and I've never tried it for a long time. Thanks for your help brothers
Even I face the problem with Redmi Note 3 16gb rom
And 2gb ram with snapdragon processor.
I havent flashed from earlier to this device. It will be helpful

For all the Kenzo 2gb ram users please read this. Who want stable miui 10 i suggest you install Official miui 10 8.8.16 developers ROM it's the best Miui ROM I have ever used so far .it's smooth and it's ram management is also awesome and with all the normal apps installed such as Facebook whatsapp and all. I can easily switch between 5-6 apps which is awesome for a Miui ROM.
I too was so much frustrated from changing ROM coz all Custom roms didn't have the look and customisation such as in Miui, but due to my 2gb ram almost every miui ROM was unstable for me.
After installing the ROM everything is in stock moreover.i haven't even rooted my phone then also I got upto 5:30 hrs Screen on time with 20% left my usage was full time 4G .I feel so blessed I found this ROM now I can have the awesome look of Miui along with full stability and ram management, I'm a regular XDA visitor but I never comment or reply , but for all the 2gb kenzo users this might be very helpfull.Sorry for my English if I spelled something wrong.
In sort Features of this ROM which I liked very much are
1) Best ram management ever I got on a Miui ROM (especially for 2gb ram user)
2) Very good Battery life ( Easily can reach upto 6hrs Sot with 4g , it's more than enough for my 2yrs old Kenzo)
3) Almost full stable even though it's a Developer ROM ( I didn't faced any issue till now)
4) Liquid smooth UI , no lag ever
Hope it Helps Someone..
By the way I'm on stock kernel and unrooted right now
I'm posting this on every Thread cuz I want everyone to know about it and fix there ram management.

so i know that this phone is 4 years old. but in 2016/2017 it had a high end cpu/4gb ram(even today it has a higher antutu scores than lots of newers models). yet it feels so laggy to work on after some use, mine still has stock android. but i feel like when swaping between apps, or using them , it just feels crappy. also the phonebook behave weird, can't add phone numbers cause i get this thing ''phonebook stoped working'' , and almost all my contacts dissapeared like i deleted them. i'm not the type of person that changes phones every year,i had mine 3 years now. but i think i'm just gonna give up on this phone, and get something that gets software updates
Things get corrupted after a while, apps you've installed running in background hogging resourses, etc. Do a factory reset, or better still, flash a recent Anroid 9 or 10 rom. This phone still flies on the right rom.
Heyyo, yeah depending on your build of EUI ROM? It'll suck. Anything prior to 19s is definitely garbage. X821 19s was pretty good and same with x829 20s or x820 30s (albeit with ads). The best way to experience EUI ROM is CrisBalGreece modified versions.
Otherwise? I highly recommend custom ROMs. We have a lot of great Android 9 ROMs and Android 10 is pretty decent albeit with more bugs.

It simply because the chipset it is using is a "bad" one..... You can see this with every Snapdragon 820 and 821 phones(Zuk Z2, Google Pixel 1(OG) etc) ... They heat up and throttle down easily = lag... on paper the 82x should be able to outperform a SD625 any day but not so in real life.... with custom ROM they are much more manageable... I think you should definitely be fine with custom ROM unless you are planning on gaming on it...

so was the snapdragon 820 bad on all phones models not only the cheap chinese ones like i thought,only if i knew this when i bought it... to be honest, i took my abandoned xperia z3 compact from the drawer..and it moved more smoothly. indeed, i think this phone has some overheating issues.what rom do you recommend,should i stick to EUI, not a fan really to the stock eui i got,full of bugs. i have just rooted my phone now and i'm ready to instal other ROM . but there are so many options. looking at android 9 or 10 but so many variants available. i just want it to run smoothly. also , do i have to update the firmware version via twrp? i have the stock one. anyway i think i have the indian version, and the linegeOS android 10 version i wanted to install seems like it doesn't support this mode(only CN on the x820) looking at aosp 9.0 now

The Xperia Z3 Compact are Snapdragon 801.... Those were great... on paper SD820 or 821 should be miles ahead in performance compared to 801 or 800... but IRL on most of the phones they usually suck... (I did saw someone swear that his Oneplus 3 ran great after getting angry because I said SD820 821 are bad chipsets... then again Oneplus 3/3T probably have a much bigger ROM community both dev and user wise)
unfortunately I also just recently took my Le Max 2 from the drawer and started fiddling with these new android 9/10 roms, I can't give much advice... I'm currently on Android 9 Lineage it's pretty stable.
Generally, you'd want custom ROM so you can remove the bloatware, install a custom kernel so you can use a kernel that better manage the chipset(battery or usagewise) and a config that might suit your usage...CMIIW

so today i have instaled the first time a custom ROM,after struggling with twrp for 2hours . i have instaled AospExtended ROM V6.0 [X2] (adroid PIE) . it move more smoothly for sure,but not sure it moves this way beucase it's just a fresh rom..will way some weeks to see if it keeps up.
and about instaling a custom kerne . isn't that coming instaled with the ROM?
I have my device for nearly two years, and I am using eui 6.0.30s CBG cleaned edition since last year... I never face any kind of lag or bug except the lag caused by power save mod, which automatically enables itself when the battery goes down under %5. I think full wipe+reinstall firmware would be a great solution for you.
Heyyo, I definitely don't agree that 820/821 is bad lol... That's ridiculous. It's true that back in 2016 no one cared about proper cooling for the SoC though. I've seen people mod their x2 and zl1/0's with thermal pads or non-conductive thermal paste and get a heck of a lot better thermal management for just a few pennies of extra cooling.
On any pie or Q ROM though, we do have tuned thermal-engine.conf by Shiva which helps quite a bit and also allows for better sustained performance too which also performs a lot better than EUI ROM which focuses more on lower temperatures than balancing thermals and performance.
Anywho, yeah, if you're upset with performance of EUI ROM? I'd definitely recommend a custom ROM. Anything on pie that's actively maintained is a good idea.
Android 10 ROMs still sometimes have performance stutters for now... So hopefully later on it'll work better, so that's why I recommend for now sticking with pie.

dude.. people mod their x2 and zl1/0's with thermal pads or non-conductive thermal paste and get a heck of a lot better thermal management for just a few pennies of extra cooling. .. I never had to do that on SD800/801 phones lol...
since you are very determined that its not a bad phone , I'm taking out my Le Max 2 a second time .... hehe... I occasionally play Mobile Legends.. any other tips you can give?
Nexus 5 was SD800 and was known for overheating issues
https://www.technobezz.com/fix-overheating-problem-nexus-5/
Like I said, the main thing would be to switch to a custom ROM that has Android Pie and is decently updated. Most of those pie custom ROMs will have pretty decent thermals while still delivering decent performance.
