Hello everyone,
I have been looking in the custom roms section for this tab, and it's amazing how many rom there is (good thing! very different from my motorola phone...)
I bought this tab as present for christmas, and would like to install a custom rom on it (mainly in order to increase things like battery life, stability...)
So I am looking for a easy to use rom, with all functionallity working, and most important very stable. I don't care of it being the latest android or CM, i prefer stability, the person that will use it is the totally opposite of a geek It also needs to be multilangage
Thanks in advance if you are able to give me some suggestions.
Regards.
If the person is not a geek I wouldn't install a custom rom
I would root a stock rom, uninstall the bloatware, install my favorite apps and stop

Or Something like Tab2lite or whatever it's called that is a STOCK but HEAVILY DEBLOATED firmware.
If you want to retain FULL functionality then you will need to go with a STOCK BASED custom ROM, I believe your choices are ROMSWELL and Tab2lite

Hi everyone,
I'm ready to proceed to flash my Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3113) but I don't know what rom take. It's like the CyanogenMod are very popular (and i've found a CM9 compatible with my P3113) but does someone have suggestion for me (my backup is made, ready to be restore if anything goes wrong).
Thanks alot and have a nice day!

I am running CM9 on my tablet right now and I really like it. I would definitely recommend trying it out.
Well that depends on what you are looking for in your rom my friend.I have tried every rom for this device and right now am on cm10 without any problems at all.If you want a more customizable rom go with either cm9/10 or any of the aokp roms.but if you want the feel to remain stock there is an excellent option with the metallice rom.I still think it was the fastest and smoothest so far because it had a great kernel with an oc to 1.38 my tab was so fast.but I just need my cm.lol

For complete trouble free operation, keep what the creators put on it. Or just read the threads on your choice rom and if the problem dont bother you or you like problems, have fun and flash away.
I came from the Transformer Prime and am loving my Note. After rooting, I looked around at the other ROMS. I happen to be one of the folks who likes Touchwiz and the custom software that Samsung installed (s-notes, multiwindow, etc., so I decided to just leave the stock ROM installed.

Welcome to the Family
Actually you can just try to flash those custom ROMs out there.
Each of them has their own advantages / disadvantages, just try it if it's suitable for your need.
As for me I use ARHD (thanx to Mike, the creator).
It has stock look & feel, but still customizable without losing any of samsung features.
I'm sure that ARHD as well as Omega ROM come from developers that know their stuff very well as for me I'm using Omega with a grey theme. But I'm desperately waiting for the JKay framework to be announced for the Note 10.1

I just left mine stock and rooted it..... Tried the cooked roms but couldn't get rid of the custom tag in bootloader that stopped me from using the allshare hub....
Rooted, ran triangle away, re-installed latest stock firmware with Mobile ODIN and did total wipe when installing. ALL custom counters set back to Official and 0 flash count while still rooted...
Thanks for the input, so far have tried 2 roms out, redemtion and Arhd. Both run really well. Made a nandroid of stock rooted. Thanks again.

thanks for all answer ,im using stock rom right now :laugh: please give thanks to my post please :victory:
Jellybam
If you have one of it's many supported devices, I highly reccomend Jellybam. Jellybam has many features from many ROMs, and is not disimiliar to PAC-Rom, but I find many more options to customize, like custom notification background, and even custom halo color etc.
Overall, for my P3110, the ROM is quite fast, even without over clock, and the Deva update it quite frequently, plus these updates are stable and most of the time quite major and useful

Just recently picked up the Carbon rom and loving it! I use them for the customization and the fact that they boost performance and battery life
The phone I own is a first gen LG Optimus V. The ROM I use now is MiRaGe CM7.2 ROM. The reasons I rooted and flashed was to get better performance, over clocking, USB Tethering, removel of all bloat ware and useless apps, and to be able to make Nandroid backups of my installed ROM, apps, and settings. Before I did all this, I ran stock Froyo 2.2.1 and was plagued with all sorts of problems the LG Optimus phones were known for. And I was 100% o.k. with voiding my warranty too.:good::laugh:

My old HTC Desire used Cyanogen Mod, my current HTC One X and S3 are using Stock Roms still.
My tablet at the moment using Ubuntu Touch, might go for another rom as the Ubuntu Touch is missing some key features I want in the tablet right now as it is a Dev release. Will hopefully go back to Ubuntu Touch in a later release when those features are there.

As topic says
I am a Tab2 user but i got this yesterday and i really need the JB 4.3 .
I just hate Samsung stock bloat rom. Is there any custom alternative to my Note GT-N8010?
Also is there any way to root this device?
I think i found a guide but i ask the professionals here instead of guessing
Thanks guys/Girls!
There are plenty of roms and ways to be rooted, you should check the whole android dev. Forum before oppening a new topic asking for something that is already there...
Well is i said im not sure what i can use or not. I do not want to damage my tablet and therefor i ask the guys who knows what rom i can use with my GT-N8010 32GB
Most of the roms i have been looking at doesn't say if it is for my device or the other 8xxx devices. I have root but i want a new fast rom (4.3-4.4) with working s-pen and IR
i ask because i do not want to make a mistake :/ Also looking for a good Kernel!
I am looking for
*Rom thats fast with no bloat (4.3/4.4) working with GT-N8010 32GB
*A nice Kernel with over clock possibility working with GT-N8010 32GB

Well, I have a n8010 too, and we dont have a 4.4 rom yet, I tried Omnirom but wasnt able to install it. 4.3.1 rom is the CyanogenMod 10.2 , you can check official CM page and look for the n8013 model it should work just fine and it comes preloaded with a good kernel, but the rom is so fast fhat you wont need any OC, after thst you got Android Revolution HD and Hyperdrive, I am currently on hyperdrive (4.2.1) and sweet lord is FAST it comes with bloat only if Uwant it and all the spen funcionalities, Oh yeah..also CM10.2 doesnt come with all the spen funcionalities but the pressure sensitivity is the same.. (but you dont have snote and the realtime cropping option etc, those come with touchwiz.... My re omendation?.. Hyperdrive. Next one would be CM10.2 both are really awesome (for me) but one is AOSP and the other is touchwiz
Thank you very much! Will take a look at CM10.2 as i didnt get the Wifi working on Hyper.....

For making wi fi work on hyperdrive you must change the wifi channel of your router, I have it on automatic and its great
OK thanks! but i wanted to lock the channel as all here is using almost the same channel which i didn't like I wanted my own channel weiii

Concerning hyperdrive i had the same problem some time ago. maybe try one of the solutions here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2296669
They did work back then, but i don't know if they still do.
For me (almost) all roms for the n8013 were/are working fine on the n8010.
If you have problems, try to flash latest version of Philz recovery(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202714) for 8013 !!! with odin.
for rooting methods 2 and 3 should do from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2080366.
an odin alternative http://www.xda-developers.com/android/meet-jodin3-a-web-tool-that-flashes-your-samsung-device/
4.3 rom -> maybe http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2151873
4.4 -> omni
I'm loving omnibus on my 8010. I had to install the 8013 recovery to get it working but official omnirom builds are imminent and should support the 8010 directly.
The rom is fast, sleek, no real issues I can see, excellent power usage. Loving it

go with [4.4.2] OmniROM instead...
Although I did try Hyperdrive, I wasn't too impressed & Pacman was better, as I have been on 4.1.2 since day one & finally made the switch. I skipped over 4.2/4.3 & decided to go with the [[UNOFFICIAL Kit-Kat]] omniROM 4.4.2 on mine for the meantime. I am very much impressed, only issue I have found so far, is the 'Swype' feature isn't working, but other than that, its stellar thus far. I would highly recommend this rom for your tablet, until something 'new comes along... Maybe a Jedi X-Master ROM for our Note10.1's!!!
OmniROM 4.4 Does work for Galaxy Note 801x
One catch about OmniROM, it doesn't have a root built-in, so don't forget to root your device after you install the new ROM.
So to install, make sure you have CWM 6.0.4.4 (aka Philz Touch) or TWRP 2.6.3.1 as your recovery, and then go from there. The newest Roms are located on the OmniROM website now, and N801x is included. Get the gapps for Android 4.4, install after you install the ROM. Install the root after all that.
It's easy to install, and easy to use. I have been using Omni for about a month now, and it runs great. I just wish Samsung would've had enough sense to update all their models with this version of Android.

First install a custom recovery, the one I have found to work best is Philz Touch. You can do a search and find the link for it here in XDA. It's good because as I have noted before, OmniROM does not come rooted. Philz Touch has to be the easiest recovery I have ever used to install root, and you may want to do it several times because there are nightlies for the ROM.
As for the ROM, go to dl.omnirom.org and go to the folder for 'n801x'
Once you get the zip file downloaded, copy it to your SD card, install the recovery, and then install the ROM
Oh, don't forget, make sure you also get gapps for Android 4.4 on your SD card before doing this. Pointless to have a ROM with no gapps install.
Let me know if you have any problems.
Good luck

Last month i braved upgrading my Galaxy Tab 2 to the custom ROM by CyanogenMod (11).
This gave me what I required with regards to having multiple profiles on Tablet for me and kids. However what i did not realise is that i would lose various bits of functionality.
ie The camera is not as good, the video camera is not as good and can no longer connect device to Samsung TV.
So what I am wondering is "Is there a Custom ROM" that delivers the missing functionality (believe they all need Touchwiz which is not built into CyanogenMod.
is there a custom ROM based on Android 4.3 (Jellybean) which also has Touchwiz? ie it will give me multiple profiles and the Samsung camera/video recorder?
Thanks in advance
Steve
If no one can help, maybe just make a nandroid of your current ROM and try out some others.

I believe sungsonic should work for you. Stock modded rom. I lost my cable so I cant check but its what I was dualbooting with cm11.
Thats the other option, just dualboot. One rom for you, one for the kids.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
This is the one reason why the dual boot solution was made.
Or you could just rollback to CM10.1. I was having stability issues so I did that a few months ago. It's light years more stable than CM11.
