[Discussion] Why Do You Use / Like CyanogenMod ?

you all know our Great Friend / Developer Adam has provided us CM 10 & 10.1 for us (Galaxy R) and after Adam released his Sources we got around 10 Different kind of ROM's Based on CM 10 / 10.1 and i saw so many hard code fan's for CM (CyanogenMod) including me.....
So My Question is very simple :
Why Do You Use / Like CyanogenMod ?
My Answer:
1. I started using CyanogenMod and I saved 25% on my Car / Bike Insurance..
2. I started using CyanogenMod and lost 10kg's, so i am happy ...
Just Joking guys, please don't post like this ... .....

1. It's slimmer than stock ROM.
2. Up to date (Android 4.2.1)...
3. can be configured as per your wish.
4. It's faster Compared to Stock ROM's...
5. Stock Google Feel and better......

1. Latest version of Android.
2. No bloatware.
3. Optimized Code - Thanks to community and gerrit review.
4. Helps my addiction towards flashing, learning new things.
5. Making fellow s2 owners at work feel poor even though they spent 10k INR more.
Will edit this post to include more as I get to understand better.
Sent from my Galaxy Royale with Adam's CM10.1 build.

For me, When I listed its Official ringtone "Cyanogen modddddddd" My heart says, " I have 4.2.1 JB in my phone" Even My note 2 doesn't have it.:cyclops:
1) Smoother then other ROMs.
2) Small in size & I can have 3 roms(versions) in my memory card.
3) Latest things happened in it including Stock ROM features.
4) Project butter in it. ( I think)
5) Great themes for us.
Lots more, right now very much busy. Will right more in evening..

1 lots of new features added like day dream,calender nd messages menu in lock screen bars
2 cool Quick panel view
3 rotation in launcher and home screen(liked this feature the most)
4 battery backup simply awesome
5 CM 10 supports cool and awesome themes
and many more features..
i can say i have the latest available version of android now..:good:

1. Similar to AOSP/AOKP.
2. Wicked fast.
3. Smooth since project butter.
4. New features since it is the latest version(4.2.1).
5. Better UI.
6. Since it is d latest version, i can brag about my SGR even in front of SGS2 and other high end fones like HTC, Sony..
7. And last but not the least, Adam was the one who brought life to our SGR when samsung ignored us.. So hats off to XDA community and also CM for their support..

I hate to wait, and I think so does CyanogenMod! Its SuperFast, SuperSlim.
It has given me everything that I've been looking for in a ROM for a long time.
Plus, I get to boast about JB and Google Now among my friends.
Lastly, I think CyanogenMod holds a very special place for us coz, it was the first source built ROM for the Galaxy R and it was Adam who got it for us and since then our little Galaxy R forum went from being a quiet place into a ROM frenzy. Thanx to great awesome dev's like MJ.Vikram, Grarak, Karthik etc
CyanogenMod <3 <3

1. CM is smooth makes me happy using my phone.
2. Only CM offers JB on Galaxy R (now i can say its Royal).
3. One great guy made it especially for me Adam77Root (with forumers help ofc)
4. Damn look nice and i got full control.
5. Thanks to CM, Adam and You guys i didn't sell my phone (after ICS release by samsung i want to sell it).

CM is pretty awesome.. Things like customizing the look and feel of the entire OS to even basic things like switching from 2G-3G with a single click make me appreciate its beauty! Brilliant efforts have been put behind the scenes for making something like this, and we, the users of CM are thankful to all the developers! Cheers!

1. It´s the best Custom ROM
2. Fast
3. Smooth
...
and much, much more

It gave me one very important thing it gives your phone what it deserves.

i like cm because:
it is smooth, slick and easy to use, plus looks cool.
games never lags.
its 4.2.2!
but!
i CAN'T use cm because:
i cant see my sd card when i need it.
phone doesnt wake up (screen does not lit) when you receive a message.
i love rosemary font which belongs to stock ics, but i dont want to install an 3rd party app for that.
vibration strength is very low so i can't feel it.

Im surprised there is'nt ALOT more Custom Roms for the Tab 3 T211

Im honestly surprised there is'nt more Custom Roms available for the Galaxy Tab 3 T211, for instance, Roms like Miui, C.M 10.2, AOKP, PACMAN, or even a Touch Wiz 4.3 Updated jump Off to run flawlessly on the Tab 3 T211. Im like really Baffled over here wondering whats going on, this is a great lil device , however this stock 4.1.2 SUCKs. Please, we need a great developer to cook up something RAW for us to Flash. Thanks for listening....

Patience Dude...just a matter of time.....

I really hope for someone will make it soon. I can't do it myself, I don't understand the program language.
So, for you developer, thanks b4. Maybe you can spent your time to make a CM with very2 updated Android sistem (maybe 4.4).

Hey A, You just gave me hope..!!
I honestly hope your Right Buddy, cause from what i see in the forum theres only literally only 2 Custom Roms, Dont get me wrong i TRULY appreciate ALL Devs in this Forum and XDA as a whole, But i definitely dont know how to even start cooking up a Custom Rom, however if ANY devs would need any help with anything simple i always available and willing to assist. Now could it be there isnt many Roms for the T211 cause its fairly new, about how old it is already 6 months old..?? Cause thats a bit of time already. well i hope your right buddy, cant wait to have at least 1 sick rom with UNRESTRICTED TETHERING... I WISH ALL THE BEST TO ALL Devs and everyone as a whole in XDA..

We are here to help one another- Let us work hand in hand in helping to get this device to work as great as possible. Honestly speaking this device may be lagging at times....but this can be resolved by Kernel revamp plus tweaks like :
- Scorpion Bionic Optimisation
- Neon script
My setup to be honest :
Stock ROM..Rooted
Crossbeeder Tweak
So far have not removed any bloatware yet and with the above setup my Antutu (full test) score is on my SM-T211

It'll be worth the wait. My phone is a Motorola Atrix HD. It was released August 2012 and didn't get any real development until the bootloader was unlocked in April of 2013. Since then it has most all of the major ROM's on 4.4.2. Everyone kept saying the same thing about this time last year. Just stick it out.

Totally Understand your dilemma..
Hey B, the deference with the the Galaxy Tab is there no BootLoader holding back the development. i honestly think no big development is acquiring because of the hardware, its not much to brag about, its only a Dual core, i think thats the problem, and with this stock System its really laggy, well for me it is, cause i have the note 2 as well. Anyway i will be here patiently waiting cause in really loving this device, once it get some steroids then ill love it even more. Thanksss.

So to make sure that I understand what you are saying... I could, instead of having a Wi-Fi Hot Spot from Sprint, have a Tab 3 from Sprint with a data plan, install this, and then be able to use this tablet as a Hot Spot? I currently use my Note 3 (that has unlimited data) but there are times I'd rather have the Hot Spot (or this tablet) as how I connect my laptop to the internet (Like when 4G isn't available and using the Note on 3G basically disables the ability to do phone and data simultaneously).
I don't use the Hot Spot very much so I could probably do this with a limited data plan on the tablet and get away with it.
Anyway. Too long of a post to simply ask if this allows tethering of a Laptop to the Tab 3 for the laptop to use the Tab 3's data plan.
Thanks!

porting roms
I will donate to the cause of getting slimrom on this device.

Well 4.4 Kitkat is coming soon from Samsung. Most people like Touchwiz and you can't get a lot working beyond 4.2.2 in any ROM until Samsung drops a new version and the libs can be updated. Not much to do until 4.4 comes that hasn't already been done. Root, then a few tweaks and the tab really hums. When you branch off into cell providers tab versions it gets even harder because you need new /different kernels, modems and firmware specifically for them. In other words there just isn't that much demand for custom ROMs and it takes a lot of effort.

Its funny you say that D.
There isn't even 4.2.2 Build out for the Galaxy Tab 3 T211.. The Tab 3 T311 came with 4.2.2 out the BOX, so it has nothing to do with waiting, cause 4.2.2 is there, however your right when you say there isn't any Devs willing to put in there quality time to cook anything up for the T211, I dont know why cause this Device is a nice lil jump off, so i just made the decision to sell it and cop the Tab 3 8'' T311. Much better device, barely any lag and it came running 4.2.2 out the box, Plus it comes with 16gigs of internal storage, and it just costed me ONLY an extra $10 after selling the T211 for $350, i came off like a fat rat.. lol... So I have my Note 3 Tweaked out, running Jovy23 Darthstalker V6 Custom Rom, Tethering my Tab 3 T311 FLAWLESSLY... Im Loving It..!! :0

Stop hoping.. WHen Tab3s get the official 4.4 is when you will see a working 4.4 . You can't port things without a proper kernel , libs, blobs, and framework to build on. Libs and blobs are not all open source and its tricky to build a kernel without a vendor base. Samsung should be pushing out some 4.4 in April / May

Cell carrier versions always lag behind because they require the cell carrier to add in their bits , kernel, radio, modem, etc.

Hey T.F
I Agree, i would LOVE a T.W 4.4.2 KitKat myself. Im running CM11 (Big Up to CM) and its running GREAT, FLAWLESSLY on my T311, however I Know TW 4.4.2 KitKat will be ported at some point to our 8" Tab 3, look at the bright side though, at-least we have a few options and are not stuck on 4.1.2 like the T211....
QUOTE=thefoss;51314636]I just got a Tab 3 8.0. Was really hoping for a 4.4.2 Tab Pro port[/QUOTE]

Well after reading all comments ... its mean this device is not so good ? Complaints about lags or no custom rom?
Even on stock rom you can improve performance with tweaks like edit your build.prop and add some tweak or add tweak in init.d folder like fly-on mod...
For me I use stock rom 4.1.2 with some tweaks on build.prop
I can play games like asphalt 8 or gta san andreas or play psp game almost smooth with no lag except some game on psp emulator of course I cant compare with my nvidia shield... but for me this galaxy tab 3 7.0 is good enough
Here my score on antutu

[Q] Android 4.4 like TouchWiz from Glaxy Note 3

Hi
Could anyone make a port of the TouchWiz included in the Galaxy Note 3 for Galaxy 2 7" - P3110? I really love TouchWiz ... I just want the look really, not really interested in Smart Scroll and those little things, can somebody? It would be amazing, i suggest modifying the stock 4.2.2 I think it's easier than starting from scratch ...

[Q] Port stock note 10.1.

I just wondering, can we port stock rom from note 10.1 2014 edition, to note 10.1 2012 edition? because the feature from 2014 editon is so rich.

No the tabs are very different and you would be setting yourself up for a brick.

I don't think there are that many features we're missing anyway. We even have the Hancom Office Suite ported to the N8000. The upcoming 4.4 update would even help our tablets catch up with the 2014 version for a while (but given the changes that Google and Samsung have made, I may consider staying with 4.1.2).

I wouldnt say all of that,there arent enough changes at the moment to really care, Jelly Bean does most everything you could want and kitkat with touch wiz overlayed isnt kit kat, and otherwise if all kitkat then your note wouldnt be a note.

Just list it out already. For me it's the lack of Tablet UI in Android 4.2+ and especially the complete removal of Tablet UI codes in 4.4. About Samsung functionality you'll see the new Pen Windows as a lot of hassles compared to N8000's Cascade View. Regarding usability, what you actually use everyday are apps, not OS. As long as 4.1 can operate with the (absolute) majority of apps that 4.4 can, I will see 4.4 as just a minor update that should only be concerned about by programmers. Don't believe completely in advertisement, it's not as big of a change as from 2.3 to 4.0.

how many use Kzoom

Who visits here looking for tweaks ?
Me, thats 1 anyone else ? add your thumbs up :good: here if you come here looking for development Maybe we might get more interest
Get your names down please !

I visit for custom roms. Currently using note 4 mini (slim) by ddaemen. Would love it if we could get a lollipop rom so that this baby could get manual focus and shoot RAW photos which will be possible with camera2 api.

lollipop
I really want to have lollipop for k zoom . Only way is port from note 3 neo i guess ?:good:

I am also there from time to time, looking for a custom rom

Hi, i visit Xda from the first day i got the K Zoom ( oct 2014 ) but now is the first time i am posting something. I am looking for development, hoping that someone will bring the Lollipop with the Raw support for the K.
And by the way, i am that guy that made on Youtube the cleaning video for the K's camera.

Same here,
I've been searching in here for any real working Lite Lollipop ROM since the first time I got my KZ C111. I wish to use it with Camera2 API.
I wonder how to get Samsung attention to develop better ROM for KZ any idea?

Got one today!.

I just got this device as a back up phone for my note edge. I seems to be interested to weird looking phones lol

Any cfm Lollipop for a K Zoom SM-C115 ??

i'm visiting xda time to time to check custom rom developpement for the K-Zoom (so sad that the stock rom is so buggy (radio/modem and reactivity are the two big issues on my phone...). Back on the S4 for about two months because of these problems (phone not waking up on incoming calls, etc.) but i love my k-zoom !

What? Why are you talking about Asus Zenfone?. It has NOTHING on KZ!.

would be so cool to have raw on this phone :/ but it's dead in the water eitherway and the zoom mech breaks, but I guess every lens does.
