Possible to have cyanogen w/out a ROM? - General Questions and Answers

I have the note 2 with hellybean running on it. It's also cwm and cyanogen.
Now...I know so little about all if this. Keep that in mind as you read.
I went to install paranoid android a while back and somehow in the process I wound up with what appeared to be cyanogen as the OS on my phone. I didn't keep it long because I wanted to try out paranoid android.
I can't seem to get back to that.
So cyanogen mod, that's not a ROM? Is it firmware? A kernel?
Can I just get rid of hellybean and just run cyanogen? Because for the two minutes I was running it, looked pretty sweet.
Please jump on in and give me the scoop. Perry

Cyanogen Mod is a Rom And it uses its own kennel Some roms are based on cyanogen If you want to use pure cyanogen go to the official site n download it :thumbup:

Boot Animations?

Well after being on ios for 2 years its safe to say im new to the rooting scene on android. Regardless i am rooted and am running the latest synergy rom on my vzw gs3. I understand boot animations dont usually work on my device. How could i go about getting them to work. The developer told me it is possible to get them working. Thanks in advance!

On stock, it's not exactly a breeze. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1829363
I am using synergy 1.2? Whatever the latest version of the rom is thats what im on.

Synergy is based on stock and as such is subject to the same restricitions in this case. See the thread I linked.
Oh ok. I'll give you a thanks when i get on my desktop. Idk how to on this app. Also just for future reference are there any roms with non stock kernals? Sorry if my terminology is wrong.

This phone hasn't had what you might call a normal development cycle. New kernels are just starting to come around since the bootloader just got unlocked. I know of one stock based kernel right now. See here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/31329-kerneltouchwiz-leankernel-minimalistic-kernel-819-v022/
YOU WILL NEED TO UNLOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER FIRST. There's an app in the market for that.

[Q] I would like to mod touchwiz. Where to start

I would really like to add a reboot to recovery option to the power menu on my touchwiz galaxy s3 running stock rooted 4.1.. The other roms all seem to have it but I cannot find it for my needs. Any help pointing me the right direction would be very appreciated
Thank you

First off, this is probably the wrong section to post this in.
U should've posted in s3 q and a, you will probably get more help there.
As for getting that functionality, I would recommend flashing a custom rom.
I am not looking for a custom ROM or for this to be done for me. I simply need some help doing this. I don't have a SamsungShutdownThread.smali to edit also most custom ROMs remove the touchwiz features I'm looking to keep

Any hope for non Cm11 roms?

I love how minimalistic cm 11 is but I can't stand the simple boring interfaces like the phone app. Didn't know if anyone knew if any other Rome could possibly be ported to here that weren't cm 11 based.

Just wait for some time until developers are able to get the phone (invites will roll out next week on friday), so give it another month and there will be more ROMs here for sure. Just be patient!
I am positive we are going to at least see a ColorOS version pop up, it by far is already a ROM we can flash only needs converted to English if it hasn't already.
We should see custom ROM support when more people and developers finally get the device in hand.

Noob Help Needed (Custom ROM Building)

Hey,
I am jumping the gun a bit but I was going to be getting involved in building custom roms for the S5 (once SS is available.) I figure I might as well start now and if we never get SS (I'm sure we will in due time) at least I will have started with getting experience.
I've searched the internet and found some great guides to building custom roms. I am not a total noob but am new to building roms.
I would like if you all could help me out and point me in a good direction on xda or the web for rom building information so I can give it a go!
Also, I would like it if you guys would comment as to what you look for in a custom rom (stock touchwiz of course) so I can begin researching different mods as well!
I know I look for a good theme with themed apks, adblock hosts, bloat removed, call recording mods etc..
Thanks for helping me out!

I'd like to mention I like roms that don't have apps that are built in and won't update at the play store.
Thanks all who have sent info so far! Im at work but I plan on setting up my build environment when I get home and taking the dive!
I'm thinking of using linux which I heard is better than Windows 7.. That sound about right?

My best advice is to google everything you don't positively know. Also look to use git for comparing apks. Git and meld are a great combo.

By the way there are already aosp roms being built for this device. Check out the unified development sub forum. Those roms should be able to run on this variant. hope this gives you some insight on the people to talk to if you run into issues.

Except that unless your device is a DevEd right now, you won't be able to as we have no SS or any way to add a rom...

also to add what kprice said.. without an unlocked bootloader SS will only be able to flash roms compatible with the kernel/bootloader we have which would mean only stock based roms.. other than that, if this ever changes id love to work on aosp roms!
