Guyz,
I donno this is fact thing, or its not working with me. I have tried Many Best custom roms like FireKernel Droid Ace, ICSXperia v2 but i dont find any way to use my phone as modem or usb tethering to connect my laptop to internet. Internet works find in mobile but wont be able to connect my pc to internet using phone with custom roms. Right now Xperia Tised V2 i got working wifi hotspot and android usb modem, so could anyone explain me ? do i need to install other things in custom rom to start this service in my mobile ?
please help......
For GB based roms you need tools you can get from playmarket.
ICS/JB roms need special tools to do this afaik.
could you plz tell me ? which special tools ?
Thread moved to Q & A, post in the relevant section next time.

Thanks for the info...btw...right now m using V13 Tized Xperia and its having default stock rom drivers for usb wifi hotspot
Cyan mobile has options in settings for everything you can think of, including usb and wifi tether. I'm on droid ace at this moment and have no problem with wifi tether.

Help me - USB Tethering
Someone help me !!!
I am using Jusada Original ICS Final on Samsung Galaxy Ace. I need USB tethering.
Can someone suggest me a way to added the functionality in this rom ??
plz don't suggest me apps such as PDANET or Clockworkmod tether.
I have searched the entire forum bt couldn't find a permanent solution. Any help is highly appreciated.
simple solution is just move back to stock rom......there are no....other options available....i tried many roms...but none of them work...its better to have stock rom and update kernel for memory hack/battery extender...
Try the rom on the link on the previous page. USB tethering works. I'm sure it can make your breakfast too but I haven't found that option in the settings!

Thanks for the replies. but I am concern abt battery life too. I have tried many roms and wat I found out that the stock based roms lasts longer than other roms. I planning to switch to Stock rom lite 7.1 / Myth 2. Any body knows whether USB tethering works in these roms ??

Mate,
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538245 its stock rom Modded original os + Adrenaline and may great features. Everything works fine wifi tethering + wifi hotspot tethering + usb tethering. And if on some computer usb tethering wont work...you can always try to create a Dial up internet connection using your phone modem.
i'd hope that helps
Thanks

1) I don't think it's as simple as that. If it was easy all roms would have working usb tethering.
2) search for the script. They usually have their own threads. If you can find it and find a flashable zip file for the script then unzip it and see where the changes are, for example in init.d folder(/system/etc/init.d). Then you can delete those files from your phone and reboot. If you are unsure about this, tell me the script you mean and I will look it up for you. Make a backup first!
3. As the name suggests, stock lite is built to have as few system apps as possible. Make a backup first because some system apps you think are bloatware might actually be vital. If you mess up your phone by deleting important apps then just restore your last good backup in recovery.
So to remove system apps, use titanium backup or similar app manager to remove it, if you don't have titanium then delete them from /system/app folder on your phone. If you want to be safe then freeze the app first to see if it makes any difference to your phones operation. If the ROM is odexed you will need to delete it's corresponding odex file in the same folder.
If you want to add system apps then paste into this folder (deodex ROM only) and change permissions to (rw-r--r--).
To move system apps (I assume you mean to a user app?) depends on a few things. If you have a good app manager like titanium backup use that. If the app is on the play store then remove it from system and reinstall from the play store and it will be a user app. If not then move it from /system/app to /data/app (depending on your preferred method of getting around the limited internal space on the ace, like link2sd, cronmod, etc. your user apps could be somewhere else) and ensure the permissions stay the same. (rw-r--r--)
I hope this helps and I'm sure that if this answer to your questions can be improved or corrected, someone will do that!
Best of luck!

Thanks Dude, I am on it.
I recently purchased a refurbed Galaxy Camera 2. I got it rooted, but want to install a custom recovery. I went to TWRP (preferred), but they don't offer a recovery for the EK-GC200. I see where some have installed a custom recovery, but for the life of me I can't seem to find one for this device. Can someone help me with this? I'm not new to rooting on installing custom recoveries/ROMS, and not new to Samsung (I rooted my s3-my Note 4).

I came across this today. Its a custom ROM of Android 5.0 for the galaxy camera 2 and provides a suggestion for the recovery.
I HAVE NOT installed this on my Galaxy Camera 2, so I cannot speak to it, but the recovery should at least be helpful to you.
If you do decide to install Lollipop on it, lemme know how you like it. It looks like its a stock 5.0 as if it was just an android device with no special camera stuff. Not sure if Samsungs Camera App is downloadable separate, or if there is just a better camera app in the play store that would be more useful.
I am curious about this ROM, but just got my camera yesterday and dont really feel like installing a custom rom on it yet. So far thing runs like a charm with everything I want disabled and turned off, so i have no real reason to want ot change it.
anyway, heres the link:
*for some reason I cannot post the link into the reply without part of it getting starred out.
Just google
"custom roms for samsung galaxy camera 2"
and its the 4th result
The article claims you can just download from the playstore and install recovery.
2. Install the ROM Manager on your Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 Gc. Get it from Google Play Store, then install the clockwork mod recovery. You also can use ROM Installer application from JRummy Apps Inc.(Get it from Google Play Store).

The article is fake, which is pretty obvious if you do any kind of fact-checking or research and I expect trying to flash anything it links to will brick your camera. There is no custom recovery available for the GC2 yet. As far as I know, I'm the only one that has been working on one (and I haven't released it yet because the zoom/volume inputs aren't working currently). There is no Lollipop build for this device either, custom or official. To the best of my knowledge, Samsung hasn't commented if they're going to release a Lollipop build for this device or not.
The $450 price tag turns away a lot of developers to this device. I was able to score mine for $200, but I work full time and take classes when I'm not working. I can't commit to developing for this device in my spare time.
WoW! I didn't know that XDA Developers are developing ROMs for Galaxy Camera! Maybe I can try it...
Bump for this!! I would LOVE a walkaround cam like this. )

It's not about whether the ROM developers are Chinese or not but rather the device tree author / builder / porter.

Hm ok, never thought any of those had chinese "influence" or however you describe it. Not that it matters for me though but just another one of those unnecessary facts. You learn something every day as they say :good:
Sorry for the slight semi offtopic-ness
@grengo Thanks for bring this roms here , which rom you prefer ?
Anyone tried any ROM?
I tried resurrection rom. it's good.
Hi
How is the resurrection ROM mobile signal,GPS, finger print??? Did you feel it's better than Cynogen??
I'm not feeling any different, GPS not tested.
rom more customization..
I will keep two days after that I'll try carbon rom
Now with a twrp image of zui, I gave it a whirl and my impressions are its quite nice, camera app is good, overall speed and responsiveness is awesome and better than COS. It needs some adjustments here n there but im gonna try and make a tweaked rom out of it without chinese apps and integrate google apps. Had problem with capacitive buttons being disabled and it was only the fingerprint button that worked with swiping, touch and push. Would like to know how to enable those. Wifi wasnt working either for me but I guess you need to flash the whole zui factory image first with qpst for it to work unless someone else has an idea?
I gave lewa OS a try aswell after this but wasnt anything for me, that was just cm12 + a skin ontop basicly so naturally wifi worked since I was originally coming from C.OS
@tndb Wifi is working for me i don't know why it is not working for U...
for on screen button you can edit build.prop file by adding some lines (Google it)
For play store on ZUI download below Play store apk, then open Youtube app it will ask for Google play services download these services..

Hey and thanks for your notes. I still cant get wifi working, tried reflashing but nothing, have you just flashed zui through twrp coming from Cyanogen without flashing zui through qpst first?
Regarding the capacitive buttons, they wont work either. Tried adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to build.prop and also ro.mot.buttonlight.timeout=0 to see if the leds would turn on but they are not working at all. Its only the middle button working.
Ive made a tweaked rom out of the zui twrp package you posted where ive removed a bunch of china apps, changed default language to english and country to US, replaced default launcher with nova launcher, integrated google play, ive also replaced the built-in recovery with breadcrust twrp.
If I could just find out why WIFI aint turning on, the toggle is deactivated and when I press it, its not moving at all. If I restore my twrp Cyanogen OS backup then wifi works just fine again but not at all on Zui. Ive seen this on other phone models when they didnt have the correct modem for example but not sure where id get a suitable one for that (if this even is the problem) and manage to activate the capacitive buttons would also be of great help
Ok had some time over this night and found a solution to get wifi working in zui. Downloaded qpst and flashed zui the official way removing all data on phone and getting all stock factory stuff in there.
Perhaps its the modem file which is the problem? Not sure how to just flash that one separately to find the cause of this issue but could be worth a try
Hi, is the fingerprint sensor working nicely with these roms?
Hi Peeps,
Can anyone suggest any custom Oreo ROM with Parallel Apps feature?
Here is what has already been tried -
Dont want MIUI
Dont want custom APK of Whatsapp. Dont trust those
I know there is ParallelApp app in playstore - Didnt full try - but want to keep it as last resort
Beta 22 - Parallel App feature out of the box is BEST. Just looking for 8.1 ROM that can support it similarly
Best options would be maybe a magisk module, xposed module or inbuilt like open beta
I really love Oreo 8.1 custom ROMS, especially, now Lineage and others have started with full throttle.

I am searching for the same!!! Hope you can get answers!!! Good Luck.....have "an Eye" on this....:cyclops:
I'm using Multi Accounts without any problems
G'day
I'm sick of google and everything they are about. Don't be evil my arse. I already do the simple stuff like using brave browser and duck duck go search. I'm hoping someone can advise me on how to strip my phone of as much google as possible and replace with aosp alternatives. Or even just point me towards some guides on it.
I am using a Samsung galaxy a22 5g rooted with magisk stock rom.
Thanks
I think you might want to flash a custom ROM, then use something like MicroG Magisk, NanoDroid or FOSSApps. Ungoogling an already Googled stock ROM might be more pain than flashing something community developed.
I'm currently running Lineage with Magisk GApps (so I can remove them anytime) and I'm slowly getting ready for the transition. So I'm also looking for more information.
I set up a VPS for myself (might be an overkill for you, but inspiration nonethelss) and I'm hosting OnlyOFFICE Community there and using their apps, I also host my own BitWarden password storage and a mail server (was kinda pain to set it up with all the methods for spam verification). This way some of my most sensitive data is kept on an encrypted drive on a server I myself control.
Then there's getting apps which are mainly available through Google Play - I found that uptodown does host apks, but that's far from an actually viable option (considering you really have to trust them when you're downloading apps there). Alternative stores providing the same apps as Google Play are always kinda worrying to use & trust.
So that's my two cents worth and a starting point, I'll also gladly accept some tips & tricks to accomplish this entirely, it's a long-lasting dream to leave Google altogether.

i think it's better to use a custom aosp rom with no gapps
if you still want stock rom :
make a recovery backup of "system" just in case
mount system
the folders that have apps are :
system/app
system/priv-app
system/product/app
system/product/priv-app
(if you use A11+ check also system-ext/app and priv-app)
delete anyhing related to google
if you don't want to delete use lucky patcher or titanium backup to freez them
if you choose freezing, make a recovery backup of "data"

Hey thanks for the reply and info. Flashing an aosp custom rom would be my usual go to. However I've been on an oppo with unlockable bootlader for last 18 months and now I got this samsung I find there is zero rom dev on this phone. The only options I can find are GSI which is a new concept to me and I'm a little uncertain about going that route.

Cheers for this. Agree on the first statement but having been on an oppo with unlockable bootlader for last 18 months and now I got this samsung I find there is zero rom dev on this phone. The only options I can find are GSI which is a new concept to me and I'm a little uncertain about going that route.
Do you think I should go with a GSI rom? If safe and stable I'm happy to do the research because I'd love to get a custom aosp rom going on this.
Afaik this samsung can't even access fastboot gotta use the Samsung flashing software instead and the only thread on twrp for this phone is experimental and doesn't seem to be confirmed as working by anyone.
Hence why so far I've stuck with stock and magisk
I used to flash heaps of roms and kernels on older devices but this whole GSI thing is new to me. If it's dicey I'll go the TB route with the folders you pointed me to. Cheers

looks like your options are risky , google the app name before freezing ...
don't freez :
"google Extservice" or something like that

Cool cheers for your help mate. Touche on the last point. New job with nice pay bump coming so that will be the go I think.
I use Graphene OS on my Pixel 6 and CalyXOS on the 4a. Both are very good degoogled ROMs.
I built a Magisk module for this some time ago. However, it's very likely that it won't work anymore and will probably cause a bootloop. I'm only posting it in case someone wants to use the repo as inspiration.

you forgot to mention that both GrapheneOS and CalyXOS are available ONLY for the Pixel phones
and the Pixels have a unique feature - the bootloader can be locked back AFTER flashing a custom ROM
