[Q] Samsung Based ROM?

Hey I know people don't usually like these type of questions, but I have done a lot of searching and can't find what I'm looking for.
I want to flash a ROM on my Captivate that is based off of a Samsung ROM. I really like the look and feel of the S2 and S3 ROMs. It seems like all custom ROMs are based off of the Nexus version of 4.2 and I don't like it as much.
Does anyone know of a ROM that is based on Samsung 4.2 and has a similar look and feel?
Thanks

Google Nexus devices use clean Google Android OS with stock Vanilla UI
Samsung ROMs are based on Google AOSP with Samsung TouchWiz UI
Custom ROMs are based on Google AOSP or CyanogenMod, theming allows UI you like
CM10.1 based ROM + Galaxy S3 theme will give you close to stock Samsung UI look.
Take a look at Avatar ROM + Galaxy S3 theme, for example. Stable ROM with good support.

[Q] Could you recoment me most suitable ROM

Hi guys,
I have read a lot about different ROM that are avalible for Galaxy S Advance, but I am not sure, which one is the best for me. Could someone more experienced recomend me a ROM on the basis of my priorites?
- Stability
- Speed
- Working wi-fi, GPS, camera and other basic functions
And that is basicly it. I don't need to tune my system and be able to change everything and honestly I don't really want to. I just want to install new ROM and few applications and than use it more or less for office work (calling, texting, email, callendar, google keep, facebook, viber, skype,...).
Thanks a lot!

HarshJelly is the most stable i think.

That exacly what I was looking for. Thanks mate!

I’m using and recommend the latest stock rom for Italy (ITV, I9070XXLQL)—it’s much better than older roms like LQG or LQE. It' doesn't need any tuning nor custom kernels, it's just working OK

Sami-os
Sami-os is really stable and working perfectly with all functions

I've more or less you same priorities, and I'm using slimrom

I'm very happy with it so far...

i think you should try harsh jelly, sami OS, slim bean or carbonrom build 7..all of this rom perform very well and quite stable..

For stock 4.1.2 you can try Harshjelly which is nice and is being updated with latest stuff fixed by Samsung...
For 4.3 (in case you want to try a lighter ROM...) You can try OMNI 4.3...
Or latest CM10.2 build....

For AOSP Touchwiz Sense, use Sami Os with JB 4.2.2.
It's Stable, fast, and great Rom.
For CM you can use Carbon Rom JB 4.4.2, the stable version.

[Q] Need a little thought-provoking impulse - ROM-ing not just MOD-ing?

Hi,
since I own a S3 Mini I am into this board and the great custom roms here .. :good:
but what I still don't get: how close are the custom roms to the stock rom.
for instance:
stock for S3 mini is 4.1.2 - kernel 3.0.x?
custom roms: 4.2.2, 4.3.1 and 4.4.2 - all (maclaw roms) use the same kernel 3.0.101
but 4.4 uses linux kernel 3.3 or 3.4?
so what does this difference in the kernel versions (3.0.101 to 3.3) mean? Isn't it like using windows 95 with a windows vista or windows 7 theme?
dont't get me wrong, I love the custom roms! Using the slimrom of maclaw and like it a lot. Just wanna get it right in my head :silly:

I dont really know what are the changes in the different kernels but think of them like software updates, there may be tweaks, fixes and new features
All we have is 3.0 is because there are only 3.0 kernel sources and STE died and are not releasing kernel sources anymore

Hi,
thx for the information!
i've just read about the "STE" thing. Is it the "munjeni" - "story" in the Sony Xperia thread in this board and the legality of using leaked source code?
What a pity

It should be portable but, afaik those apk´s need touchwiz framework to work properly, so my guess is it wont work on aosp roms like RR, however you can use it with 4.3 stock rom.

The best custom Rom for G800F

Hey guys.
What's the best custom ROM for S5 mini G800F in your opinion and why?
I want to flash some custom ROM on my S5 mini but I'm a little bit afraid of it. And that's the reason why I'm asking you.
Thanks for your recommendations.

For me is the CM13, because is fast and smooth. It's also like the stock Android but with some customization.

But which one? Cause there isn't official CM13 for S5 mini only some unofficial releases.

And what about unofficial Bliss Rom?

There are two unofficial CM13 roms (one for G800F and one for G800H) and other rom based on CM12/12.1/13 (Bliss Rom, Pac Rom etc.). At the moment there isn't an OFFICIAL CM13 rom because nobody care to much about this phone. The differencies about CM13 and Bliss Rom is that Bliss Rom has more customization than CM13.
