[Q] AOSP Roms Vs. TW Roms - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

For people who have used an AOSP Rom such as Cyanogenmod for the S5, how are you liking it opposed to a TW Rom? Do you feel safe enough to use these as your daily drivers?

I don't know anyone using CM11 or any AOSP on the G900A since it can't be done with the locked bootloader.

Is there any work being done on a Jedi Master Rom for the At&T Note 3 (N900A) I have had a note 2 (SGH-T889) for almost 2 years and fell hard for Jedi Roms but now I have a N900A I'm not seeing anything on the developing of the Roms yet at this point.

I second that question...I loved the Jedi Master Rom.
I'm using crash rom. Removed all the extras. Just wanted the kit kat experience with a rom that actually work without crashing all the time. And I have to say it runs great. Give it a try.

I tried out Hyperdrive rom but nearly went into shock when it booted. everything was stock looking, and it basically just had some xposed framework apps and customizations built in. That's fine and all, but no real reason for me to use it over a rooted stock w/xposed addons.
Can anyone suggest a 4.3 ROM that is more like stock android or GPE? The only thing my device is missing (for me), is a 4G LTE (data) toggle. I would like the android toggle screen back preferably.

Kitkat rom with TW

Hey everyone, so I want a kitkat rom with TouchWiz fonctions because I don't want to lose my s pen functionalities besides I like the feeling of it. If not would you suggest any stable kitkat rom? Thanks in advance.

All Omni and CM roms / based roms on them are quite stable and can be used as daily drivers.
You can use Gmd spen control for some custom spen functions and use replace apps, but even making kitkat rom would be nonsense.
I'm currently on 4.3 with note 3 features and trust me, it's much slower than 4.1.2 (which worked like **** on note n7000). Besides the RAM usage... I have like 600-200mb of RAM free, so just forget about it.

For Kitkat roms choose either OMNI, Asylum naughties or SlimKAT.
as for sNote, use papyrus or write

Fully customizable LG-skinned ROM based on 24A?

When I look through the Verizon G2 Android Development forum I see stock+ ROMs based on the 24A LG skin, I see "AOSP-based" ROMs (technically they're all based on AOSP but I'm referring to non-OEM-skinned ROMs), and a hybrid ROM with elements taken from the G-Flex ROM. What I don't see is a full-on custom ROM based on any of the LG-skinned ROMs as far back as 10b.
I was wondering if anyone is working on a full custom ROM based on 24A. Naturally it's too early to see any yet, but it'd be nice to know if one was in the works, or if I missed one somewhere in the myriad of subforums in which VS980 ROMs can be found. I know there are Xposed modules available but in my experience I've found them to be rather unstable. Thanks in advance for your helpful replies ?.

Define custom. Are you talking stock-based with aosp elements, like eclipse?

No - I don't know if you're familiar with some of the custom ROMs based on TouchWiz or Sense, but I was hoping someone or some dev team would develop something like that for LG's 24A skin.

Its not called "tech support" its Q & A.... I don't understand what it is that your asking for. I came from the note 3 to the g2, stock based rom options that we had were Clean Rom(basically stock debloated and optimized), Baja Rom (themeable, customizable stock), Eclipse (AOSP elements) and JellyBeans (AOSP Themed). Most of these Roms were deodexed, debloated, stock roms with a few tweaks/themes added to them. If you compare the features of Clean Rom and Malladus they are similar, same goes for XDABBEB's. The G2 has a themeable UI, so theming the Rom isn't necessary. I personally have themed a few apks in my rom because I don't like green (phone and mms), but other than that I use LG Home Themes.
@shiftr182 ok I can appreciate that - so basically the primary ROMs based on the LG skin are stock+ with limited customizations. I also understand that the LG Home themes already address the need for customizable look and feel options. I had mainly been hoping for a LG-skinned counterpart to a fully-featured ROM such as AOKP. Thanks for the helpful reply (btw I also don't like green all that much ?)

If Im on AOSP, I use Alloy Blue theme primarily, but there is a nice G2 theme for theme manager available here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.lgoptimus
I have been using the 4.4 based build of Carbon Rom the last couple days.

[Q] Multi-Rom

Greetings, Just was wondering how hard would it be to port multirom to our note 4? and if it were ported could all versions of the note use it as long as they have a snapdragon processor?
let us know when you port it over..

Lol @wase4711
I know the only multirom type of thing for the Note 3 was safestrap....
From what I heard (rumors) that may not be made for the Note 4...which will suck!
I'm sure if you work with the actual Multi-Rom developer, maybe you guys can work on something to port it over.
That will simply be awesome.
For now, I suggest you sit tight and see what happens few months from now. Afterall, in the grand scheme of things...this is still a fairly new device.
god, suddenly an explosion of roms for the note 4...
BTW, the cm remix 2.9 is up and fixed...wow!
custom AOSP kernel too!

Is it as stable as people say it is? How it is in comparison from the unofficial cm beta? Is it as stable as the first nj7 roms that were released shortly after our phone came out? omg

well, it is for me, but as always, just make a nand of your current rom, and try it and see how it is on your phone.
this AOSP roms are coming fast and furious now, so you really have to check it out yourself and see how it is on your phone.
what is awesum about it, is it has a custom kernel, the first one that I have found for any AOSP roms, so it will be interesting to see how that kernel works with other roms!

Firekat. Definitely Firekat.
Been running rapture for over a month now and is buttery smooth.
But try a few yourself, and see which one works best for your needs.

this here.
But if you want my opinion it's stock rom.
Rapture rom for me
Stock, though not a rom, is the most stable.
Stability depends on the user phone as well as what the user does with it. Rapture works great on my phone but I have seen complaints of instability. Firekat also work great on my phone, as well as dynamic and all the ports. Yet, I have seen complaints of instability. Now the AOSP based roms are truly unstable because they are in the testing, beta phase considering they are not a native build for our Touchwiz based samsung device. Not every device is made the same so flash and see which loves your phone the best.
Hope that helps.
good news everybody Official AICP nightlies are here

Rapture ran the smoothest for me and would be my go to but I ran into signal issues for some reason. Firekat and infamous I run right now and haven't had any issues yet.
Fire Kat V8 for sure.
Be sure to follow instructions to enhance battery life too and you should be getting about 8 hours of screen time.

I see in the fire Kat OP It seems to be a little confusing as to how to install. Is there a base ROM that flashes before V8?
Mega recommends a clean flash.
Basically just wiping cache, Dalvick, and data in the team win recovery.
But you can flash firekat over anj or ank.
I finally flashed the whole ank update. Bootloader and all.
That's what I flashed firekat v8 on top of:
The additional tweaks in the op2 are tight, and increase battery life a lot, but installing firekat is just like installing any other rom.

AICP is based off of AOSP, all the custom roms that are not TouchWiz are AOSP based roms even CM. AICP (Android Ice Cold Project) is a custom rom with a lot of customization options they are not all added as of yet but they certainly are being added gradually.
Definitely stock

They are all stable for the people using them. Some minor bugs might be there, but might not be noticed by others. So by asking this you will get a list of all the popular ROMs. You need to make a backup, read the development threads to find one that has all the features YOU want and try it. If you find a bug, search that thread to see if a fix or workaraound was posted. You will find much more self satisfaction and knowledge in this path of discovery.
