Hi guys,
I saw that in the cm9/10 roms the fonts are more little and thinner then in the stock rom.
can I change the fonts like in the stock rom?
Yes you can, but you need root access to do it manually, but I don't know if there is an app to do it without root.
Do some search and you'll find some answers, I'm a little bit lazy now to do it for you

Hi,
i love the stock android rom. Actually im using stock GRI40.
The only thing i miss, is the HSPA icon differentiation.
Is there a possibility to just change this?
Thx
yes custom ROMs
or you can theme it yourself if you know what to edit on the framework
ok, using a custom rom would solve my problem, i know
to be honnest, i just want to have this "H icon" and nothing else...
I'm not into " theming and modifying", so i thougt someone else perhaps could have done that already.

In the development section you can find a stock 2.3.3 deodexed ROM which will allow theming (you can't theme on stock ROMs because of Odex files which are removed in a DEodexed rom ). If you don't want theming you don't have to use it but you absolutely cannot get the HSPA icon on a stock rom. It has to be deodexed and themed or using a ROM that has it natively (like CM7 which btw looks like stock gingerbread and is fiercely stable).
Hi all,
I'm trying ROMs for my Nexus S and I'm not a big fan of all modifications...
That's why I'm looking for a light ROM with no tweaks or MODs.
Any idea ? I can't find this.
Thanks !
What you want is stock OTA rom right?
I don't know exactly what's the name of what I'm looking for.
Is there rooted OTA ?

Yes, look in the development section. You want a rooted OTA or AOSP ROM, though a most of the AOSP ROMs have a few minor tweaks (optional power toggles in the notification drawer, etc).
I tried some AOSP.
I'll search for a rooted OTA. Thanks.
I know there is no official source for 4.2.2, but is there any "simple" port to it?
I am always running just rooted stock ROMs because they are much more smoother and responsive then CM clones or other heavily modified ROMs. I felt in love with those notification toggles and some other UI modifications from 4.2, is there any way I could get just a simple rooted version of it?
There's none so far.
Its in the general section. Here is the post with the latest 4.2 ROMs.

Read the OP as well. There is a link to a flashable supersu you will need to gain root.
Link to post containing quick settings mod for 4.2. You might have to extract the files and copy/paste directly to /system/app, and change permissions to rw-r-r(this is how I always do it, it will never flash properly for me.)

I am currently rooted and running CM 11. I love having CM but I nitced that I dont really used many of CM's features. I was thinking of unrooting then to just do cf-auto root again so I can just use Xposed for things like CM brightness control. That and titanium backup are the only root features i use. I would like to hear your opinions on this.
If that's what you want do it. I'm on stock rooted with xposed. Works great.

I think the question you should ask is "Should I revert to Stock and root it"
In that case, given that you did not like heavily modified Rom, you are welcome and free to try Stock Rom with root and desired Xposed tweaks.
Or flash any Stock or AOSP based Rom which aren't heavily featured and modified and work well with Xposed anyways.
I'ts your device and on xda you have lots of choices.
Thanks I'll try out a stock rom.
this really is a question?
There are other ROMS besides Cyanogen mod. I feel like people forget that sometimes.
Hey guys.
What's the gain of using a custom rom over the stock one (Assuming rooted stock rom) ?
I'm kinda lost in all the roms available , so I was wondering if it was really worth it
Cheers

Battery life (if coupled with custom kernel)
Modifications -- some brilliant mods available -- Battery Icons, Themes, Menu settings etc
Cause you can :good:
-------
Using a custom Kernel with Stock Rooted and a few Xposed modules can be the same as a custom ROM most of the time though.. So give that a try first.
I have a lot better speed and battery life using Hyperdrive ROM with Beastmode Kernel. All the Touchwiz stuff (pen, etc.) still works, so yeah. Custom ROM > Samsung Bloatware.
I get between 11-14 hours with REALLY heavy use and full screen brightness and overclocked.

I have been trying custom ROM's and Kernels for many years..... I'm yet to find one that's worth the hassle.
Just disable the stock apps/bloatware you don't use and you'll get better { performance/battery life } than any custom ROM.
The only reason to use a custom ROM (IMO) would be for additional (required) functionality like additional fie system support etc.
I have personally had absolutely no good reason for the use of a custom Rom in years !.
I also don't feel like using custom rom over stock, I did many experiments with note one but with note 3 I would stay with stock rom.
Bloat wares are not bothering me, battery life is also decent so in my opinion leaving some extra utilities stock is better
Depends on which custom rom you choose. Some rom are good, nice and stable but others don't.
Sometimes I use custom rom because I wanna remove useless apps installed by carriers. If you find it not a issue, keep the stock one.
So if your phone is rooted then u don't really need custom rom isn't it well correct me if I'm wrong as I'm new to that android thing lol

It's not a matter of "need" Hyperdrive has given me better battery life (even after freezing all the bloat) and has a lot of customization. You can do most of it through Xposed, but all the really valuable things are in it already. I never found one I thought was worth it until hyperdrive.
Try one of the ROMs that look interesting, if you like it keep using it. If not, that's what nandroid backups are for.

If u know how to tweaks it urself, do modification to what u need, no custom rom is needed once u r rooted. Basically, once u r rooted u can do all system changes, IF u know how to.
But, assuming u r new, based on ur post, just grab any custom tom u like nd try.
