Looking for ROM recommendation for T700 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just bought a Galaxy Tab S 8.4. I have had other Android tablets before. My most recent was a Nexus 7. I rooted my 8.4 easily enough. When I tried to uninstall some bloatware, the system just reinstalled it I'm looking for a custom ROM like Clean ROM on the Nexus 7 - one with less bloatware or at least the ability to have control over what apps I keep.
Thanks for any input.

Sorry wrong forum. Ignore!

[Q] To rebuild 1yr old Galaxy Ace s5830 or not?

Hi all,
I have a one year old Galaxy S5830 I purchased in China. I purchased it mainly for my travels so I can use different local SIMs whenever I travel to a different country. So far it is brilliant. But it is getting slow whenever I try to install new updates for apps. There's also junk Chinese sw that came with the original phone I can't seem to get rid of. I use this phone mainly because my Verizon S3 is not jail broken (<-right saying?).
I'd like to rebuild my S5830 with the latest Android but not sure if jelly bean would be a working version for it. Is that a good idea? Or should I just leave it as it is? I thought I'd experiment a bit on my S5830 before I try to root the S3.
Hope the community can give me some great suggestions.
Thank you,
Jane
You can always try cm7 roms, there are plenty of them all over the forums, and they are the only ones which are more or less as stable as a gb rom.
There is no "Jail" forced by Google to break from (android is open source ).
You "root" your device (jailbreak = root, jailbroken = rooted), to allow apps to access system files. Nothing more, nothing less.

Galaxy Tab S 8.4

I've had this for about a day, and I have to say that this is an excellent tablet so far. I could do without TouchWiz and bloatware though. I just threw in Nova Launcher to kill some of TouchWiz. I plan on rooting and flashing a custom recovery as soon as a recognizable team is available.

Living without Xposed...

Hi. I'm thinking of getting a Nexus 6. One thing I'm curious is how are people coping with not have Xposed modules. Are you depending on custom roms and themes to make up the difference? Currently on my Note Edge I use App Settings, Heads Up Notifications, Multiwindow plus. Notifly Clean, Swipeback and YouTube Adaway among others. For example App Settings really comes in handy for changing look of apps and such (can give more of a tablet UI). I'd especially like to hear from folks that heavily used Xposed in the past to get their impressions. Anyways, I might get a N6 or wait a bit more to see what comes out at CES. Thanks!

I have adaway on my Nexus 6 and it works great. It's part of the LS ROM. The Nexus 6 is fine without xposed even after using it heavily on all of my other phones. If you want a tablet UI then you can change the DPI on your phone to 320 (560 is stock) and most people seen to like 460-480dpi. It's well worth the upgrade if you love to flash. Anything from CES (LG, ASUS, Samsung etc..) Won't have nearly as much development if any compared to a Nexus device. I like to flash ROM's and kernels so rather than deal with the hassle of unbricking a LG or Samsung with factory tools I can flash the stock ROM via fastbokt with my nexus easily. It's all up to what you plan to use the phone for. Any new phone debuting this year won't have xposed anyway because they will have lollipop
Your problem is not the Nexus 6, your problem is with Lollipop. Due time, Xposed will be made to work with ART.
Regardless of whatever phone you're using, if it has Lollipop, Xposed will not work.

Thanks for your replys. I was wondering if folks could change dpi on apps individually instead of globally.
Clearly lollipop is inevitable. I've tried a recently released developers version of lollipop on my former dd (Note 3) and it has some nice features plus some Note 4 multiwindow improvements. But I also missed my Xposed mods when using it. The main problem I'm having with the EDGE is that I'm not sure how much development will continune on it. Currently there are two very nice roms (I'm refering to tmobile here variant) but no custom kernels. So I guess I'm suffering from developer envy lol... CES should be interesting in that more devices should be introduced with 64 bit processors along with, perhaps some of the larger screen sony devices. At lest that is the hope!

Tab S2 SM-T710

Hi, I have the 8 inch Tab S2. Can anyone divert me to a lightweight ROM that just has the PlayStore and or little or no extra apps? Even if I reset my tab, it seems to have lots of samsung crap and stuff on that I do not use. I'd rather just have a plain ROM and download the things I need.

Converting Samsung galaxy note 5 to note 7

Hello everyone
I read this post about the note 7 ROM here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...om-n930tuvu1apgc-6-0-1-deodexed-knox-t3461513) and I really like it. I have though a question.
Actual Status: My Samsung galaxy note 5 N920T is already rooted since yesterday with odin and I installed the grace ux of the note 7 but it seems to be the ROM of the beta version. I have some struggles here because the S Note App and the S Pen features are combined. I have the S Note App from note 5 and note 7 and the S Pen features are mixed from both devices as well. I also can't dial or receive calls.
Questions: 1.Is the ROM provided fully equipped functions well?
2. If I want to install it do I need to root my device again and do I need to uninstall the actual ROM?
I am looking forward your answers.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Samy
