Making GearVR boot on a Custom Rom - Samsung Gear VR

Hello, and thanks for reading my question and eventually taking the time to answer it.
I would love to know if there's a way to trigger the GearVR setup on a Samsung S8+ which has been rooted, and using a custom rom, in my case, Project Sakura 5.2
I'm not a pro in this world, so, please, if you're going to answer, do it in a simple way.
Thank you.

If you want to use GearVR i think that you will have to stick to One UI roms like Hades Rom.

To flash or not to flash?

I have the SM-T713 running stock nougat 7.0. The tablet does everything I need it to do just fine. I have flashed Lineage OS 14.1 on a phone that was stuck at 6.0 and it's a nice stable ROM with a lot of features I don't really need. I'm torn between leaving my S2 alone (and hoping it gets 8.0 sometime in the future) and flashing Lineage to get rid of the Samsung bloatware (though it doesn't really interfere with anything I do.) I don't really need the Lineage custom features but it would be nice to have my S2 and my phone (Moto G3) look the same.
I'm soliciting any and all opinions on the flash or not flash dilemma. A valid response would include "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." If anyone has flashed their S2 with Lineage and would like to comment (pro or con), that would be great too.
Just go and look around the thread. read the post if got any problem to the current build. if you satisfied with it then flash away. if not just stay with samsung. Use Nova Launcher or apex and find the same theme for your phone as well. what use flashing a not ready custom rom. And If you find it solid for daily driver why not?

SAMSUNG official firmware is the best, TWRP, just debloat, have magisk, xposed & forget the rest.
Trust me it will just save lot of time.
Every custom rom for this device is all JUST TOTALLY NONSENSE, apart from moded stock rom FROM MSR.
IF YOU WANT A REFRESHING LOOK just try launchers of your desired phones or ROM.
Like oreo launchers or note 9 launchers.

I really need help please, I love Note series but hate it's stock rom.

Hi,
Please I am tired and really I need help, I will try to explain my problem In short:
1- I love the note series devices and I feel it's designed specially for me, I was from the first people who bought the note 1 and I remember how people were looking to me in the street or in bus, at that time the note 1 was something different because of it's big display , but because of Samsung stock rom, every year I buy the note and sell it after one month.
2- when I use the note I feel like I am naked in the street, I feel no privacy, why Facebook, Microsoft and some application installed in my system and I can't completely remove them? why these Apps took big space in my Phone? I bought this Phone yes? I paid money yes? why others control something I paid it's cost? why when I search for something in the most private browser (Firefox) I find my searches in Facebook as ads? maybe if Samsung gave me the note for free or 50% discount maybe I will accept this.
3- Now I have rooted note 9 Exynos N960F DS with unlocked bootloader, I tried many custom roms here the most rom I liked the Pixel Experience 9.0, but the huge battery usage made me sad, I was happy again when I found the GSI AOSP 9 and 10, I tried for weeks to install this rom but it's stock on the booting android logo, I searched a lot, I found a kernel they say it will make the GSI rom work on my note 9 but no way.
4- I found a nice uncompleted solution by deleting unwanted apps completely, I installed TWRP and used a file manager inside @dr.ketan (N960F_DS_N_PIE_Root_for_OEM_issue_devices_V5.zip), finally I was able to delete some stupid Apps from my note 9, but then my Note 9 could't boot the stock rom, I must use the root and OEM fix in the @dr.Keta zip file, but this made mey note 9 rooted with some problems in G play services.
What I need now?
1- Is there any way to install the GSI AOSP 9 or 10 on my note 9? it will be great to me.
2- If GSI AOSP rom can't be installed, can I use TWRP with stock rom without root? or can I restore the stock recovery after using TWRP?
2- Anyone has any idea to help me?

Question Is there any custom ROM?

Searching for some days now, and ranting each time I have to use my phone. While I really love the phone itself, I can't get along with it's software.
The .eu ROM is no option. I read it is pretty difficult to make a ROM for it, but does anyone know if there is something in the making? I'd appreciate any kind of information regarding this.
AFAIK there are only Xiaomi EU and MIUImix
Why is there no sign of a custom rom?
Has someone an idea why there is no sign of a custom ROM? I mean the phone is for a longer time on the market, we have a working TWRP and its the top of MI 11 lineup... I would like too see custom ROMs because the original is full of annoying bugs.

Rooting and ROMs for Note 9?

Hi, I'm new here and also suck at all things tech.
I recently got the Note 9 and it's just a beautiful phone in almost all aspects. I'm having some problems with it, but that's for another forum. I want to ask here about rooting and ROMs. Can the Note 9 be rooted and are there ROMs available for it? If so, what is the easiest way for me to go about rooting it and installing a custom ROM? Do I look for computer and cell phone stores in my city and ask them?
One of my past phones was rooted and had a custom ROM. It was splendid just because of the ROM and from then on, I couldn't imagine having a phone I didn't root and get a custom ROM for. Unfortunately, since then, all my phones have been ZTE which-- at least for a long time-- didn't have any available ROMs. If this phone can be rooted and upgraded with a custom ROM, awesome. If I can fix the other issues first.
You didn't say what processor your phone has so here goes:
For Snapdragon CPUs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/samsung-galaxy-note-9-snapdragon-roms-kernels.8318/
For Exynos CPUs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/samsung-galaxy-note-9-exynos-roms-kernels-reco.8016/
There are many custom ROMs, kernels, etc here in the XDA sections. In my opinion NobleROM would be one of the best ones just from what I've read/seen about it.
But do ask yourself if you really need root and a custom ROM on the Note9. I'm a guy who could never imagine having an unrooted phone until I got the Note9 - it has everything I'd want stock and there is also GoodLock modules which are made specifically for OneUI by Samsung and don't require root.
PS: Just NEVER put a Snapdragon ROM/kernel on an Exynos phone and vice versa or you'll most likely brick it.
