Hi. I'm currently using redmi note 10, and I was wondering if there is a custom rom like iOS for my Android phone? If not then why??
I mean I have installed "Pixel Experience" on my phone but why there isn't an "iOS Experience". I know there are many folks who'd love something like that.
I've tried searching for it and found none, there are some iOS launchers on play Store but they're filled with bugs and ads.
Please reply, Thanks.

Well... Why would we need iOS Experience on Android? Maybe get an iPhone? The way the 2 are made is very... VERY different fundamentally.
Pixel is Android, Pixel Experience is Android. IOS is not open-source like Android. and moreover you can not flash iOS to Android phones, like Redmi Note 10.
Making a ROM like iOS but based on Android is going to be a hard task and a very buggy one. Your best bet is to use launchers and themes which kinda look bad in my opinion.
PS: You can flash MIUI, if you know what i mean...

Hello all,
I have been an android user for over two years but never delved into rooting/installing custom roms. The main advantage of rooting seems to be the ability to remove bloatware and to have some customized look. Is there any other advantage (performance?) to it? Cynogenmod seems to be a very popular ROM among all. What can Cynogenmod (or any other roms) do that some advanced launchers (NOVA, AWD etc) cannot?
Also, is there any webpage or post that explains all these terms (rooting/custom kernals/flashing etc.,) for a dummy like me?
Thanks.
Cyanogenmod is based on stock pure android and not sense like what comes on the phone. It reaches far beyond what a launcher can do. It's a complete OS replacement. Beyond that it is very easy to get the answers you seek from either here or Google

Hi there!
Is there a way to disguise my Tablet (Medion Lifetab) as something different, something more common, like a Nexus 10 or Galaxy 10 or something, so I can access certain Apps from the store? Searched, but couldn't really find something.
Thanks in advance

Apps from Google Play store don't know what type of Tablet you have, it doesn't work that way. I'm just guessing here, but I think it depends what flavour of Android (Gingerbread, Jelly Bean, Kit Kat) your running and the version of the App Store your running as to what you can download. (Maybe someone with more knowledge could confirm this)
Best bet for you is to research Custom ROM's and see what is avaliable, you might be able to run CyanogenMod or something. Look for forums for your specific tab maybe google it.
Hope that helps.
** Quick Google search for "Medion Lifetab Custom ROM" brought this up, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097162 suggest you start learning to use the internet better ;0)

I now edited the build.prop of my device and it worked. Thanks anyway!
I usually switch to many roms, and I find some of stock apps of particular roms very good (like miui music player, xperia keyboard etc.). So PLZ guys tell me the full procedure to port these apps universally for all roms. SO THAT I CAN GET ALL THE BEST THINGS IN ONE ROM.

I don't personally know but I am looking to learn everything i can about android. This is a great idea. If anyone knows, please notify OP and I if you can! Thanks! :good:
Hello everyone, I am new to the xda-developers forums. I currently have an iPhone and I will be switching over to the Galaxy S5 come Saturday. The only thing I will miss about my iPhone is the emojis. I know Samsung has made their own emoji keyboard with a recent update. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to getting the iOS emoji keyboard for the Galaxy S5 (where emojis will show up every where and not the android ones)? Hopefully it will be the route where I will not have to root my phone.
Thanks everyone
maybe is not possible

If you don't want to root or flash a custom recovery the only solution I see would be to use an alternative keyboard which has iOS emojis.
This would be perfect for what you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2618523
But you need to root your device !
Cheers
This app has Apple emoticones support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-stock-messaging-sliding-ui-extra-t2825144

Whats a flash custom recovery? And if i were to use the alternative of finding a keyboard with iOS emojis, will those emojies appear as they do in the keyboard when I use them lets say in the notepad app or something? Or will the android ones appear once typed? Sorry, I'm a noob when it comes to androids.

How easy is it to root my phone? Is it like a one click thing with a program like a jailbreak?

First off, try the above app and see if it fits your needs. No root/custom recovery needed.
Can someone link me to an AT&T s5 root thread? My iPhone is so slow and it's taking forever to search
