[Q] What Rom should i get SG5? - Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i just got this phone this week and i was wondering what rom you recommend?
i like gaming and i like to have great battery life. i also love customizing the look of my phone.

This belongs in the question area and as for roms youd have to flash a few to see any custom roms are customizable its like buying a car take a few for a test drive happy new year

moved it thank you

Users can not move threads from forum to forum. What you did was create a post in the wrong section then post a New one again in the correct forum. Please do not do this. Just report the wrong post and a mod would move it. Double posting is actually Double trouble.
Please pay attention in the future

The ROM Floating around for Kaiser used by us..

Hello to all ,
Well i was jus siting and looking at all the ROMs around so jus gave it a thought that can;t we have a thread where is we post the name of all the current running ROMs for Kaiser which is most prefered and feedback to the chef to make it better..
i know i am really a Jr. to think so much for as i jus have a a new Kaiser.
But then jus give it a thought and post the ROM which is in your Kaiser/TYTN II / TILT ... and the one you feel is great..

It's all down to personal opinion, there are plenty ROM's to choose from, flash flash & flash till you find the one that you like...
You can aslo just check people sigs and the chefs get comments in there threads.
Hi, we are currently discussing the pros and cons of such a thread in the "About" forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466666
At the moment I am using PDACorner v14. A lot of members post their ROM versions in their signatures.
As I said in the other thread, this sort of discussion is very subjective. I'd recommend you watch the forum and try some of the newer ROM's to get a feel for what you like. That's how I do it

I certainly agree this Dave...
Hats off to your work....
since ive been a member i personally think anyone who spends ther time to cook up and share with us all deserve a pat on back [or a donation how ever small]and like it says in first of any posts...search search...search
I recommend closing this thread... This is NOT a chat room... There are plenty of reading material in every Cooked ROM thread, that would enhance anybody's knowledge of which ROM people are using or not using and WHY...
My thing is, I am rather new to the ROM-flashing thing. I've quickly learned alot about how to do all this, and now what I'm lacking is a cohesive sense of what ROMs are out there that I can try on my phone - I haven't the time or the inclination to scroll through dozens of pages back through the Kaiser forum looking for ROMs to try. It would be nice to have a single sticky thread where all the available Kaiser ROMs are listed (in the Kaiser forum, and other similar threads for other phones in the other forums) that just hyperlink to the appropriate thread for each ROM.
What that gives the Noob especially is a list of all the ROMs they can try. I'm just guessing that I've seen even 1% of the available ROMs. I have no idea if I'm choosing one I really like, or one I settle on because I can't find the rest.
It's really little more than a question of convenience. By having a single list of all the available Kaiser ROMs, it makes it easy for me to look at them all and choose one. Such a thread does not need any discussion to be allowed, it's just a source of information. If people want to discuss a ROM, they can discuss it in the thread that is linked to from the main list.
Does this make sense?

Apologise to those who think of closing the post but my intension was jus to let every express the ROM they use cause not every one uses the ROM anD Radio VER on there signatures..
Also it would let know that who uses which ROM , I am sorry to see that this is driven into a conterversy ..
Trolling for regulars
vikasraj dont worry mate this board is chock full of regulars who belive that anyone who comes here should read every single post, of course it is perfectly reasonable to ask for a quick list of popular roms but that would be far too easy and lets face it give the sad regulars nothing much to read, I wouldn't pay too much attention to the regular users here apart from the flashing info, they really don't add much apart from stupid pointless 'read the board' comments, I am here to find a new rom (the last one all the regs said was great is buggy as hell) and yes a rom chart would have saved a lot of time. Like you I have a life.
Forum a dictionary meaning
A medium of open discussion or voicing of ideas
Did not the original message fall into this meaning.
By its very nature the posting of Roms is trying to compete with other roms.
So a thread that simply rates roms would be a good idea and give constructive comment and possibily the sort of feedback the rom builders are looking for and why they do what they do.
It would also help those that want to extend their experience, and not get frighten away by high minded comment.
Thats All
I suggest thread starter to just see the benchmarking of Kaiser ROM's done by one of Our friends out there in the kaiser forum. I will provide link whenever I get it but its better for now to search yourself for it. Go by facts & not by values. Hope it will help you. Good luck. I think we should move forward to help cookers in making ROM better.
Sorry but I could able to find only these ones.

Why are we doing this again ? I understand that people are (especially it seems the noobs ) incredibly lazy. No one wants to do their homework, no one wants to test drive. no one wants to think. Everyone wants someone else(no matter what their qualifications) to tell them what is the best.
The chefs here do not make these roms for you or me. They make these roms for the challenge and for themselves and then they share them with us. How offensive would it then be , to subject them to a competition .
It would be like going to a Hot Rod or Custom car show and judging people's hours , months or years of artistic and engineering work with a dismissive " that one sucks, not enough cup holders " guess what ? It wasn't built for you, it was shared with you. Your opinions are yours, why should chefs be forced to confront these ( mostly uninfomed opinions ) in a public forum.
Every rom has it's own thread to rate and evaluate the rom, and to try to work out whether it is the rom that is at fault or the user.That is more than enough discussion for the chefs to improve the rom.

Dave, if you are asking, I vote no, for subjecting our much appreciated chefs. to a beauty contest or prom king type thread for the benefit of the "lazy "
Just my opinion. Thanks for listening
this would be fine topic in the Kaiser generall forum. (alot of the people who hate these types of threads cluttering up the boards like myself dont generally read the generall forum very often I believe)
This isa rom DEVELOPMENT forum. Ie if your not either posting a new rom in development or about the process of cooking and development.....you should not start a new thread here. The Kaiser generall forum is a great place for this type of discussion.
also a good way to get a overall list of the most popular roms would be to sort this forum by how many posts a thread has....click at top. And that will continue to be useful as long as people only post new roms and development related topics in here.
This topic should be moved to the kaiser generall forum and it would be taken much better/ignored by the more senior members/admins

We need a rom sub forum

We need a Rom sub forum under samsung captivate so all the roms are in one places and not all mixed up under development.

Wouldn't they still need to be in the development forum..since most are a works in progress ? I could see having a sticky with links and screen shots of them but they would have to be locked down otherwise they would get cluttered up with all of the questions being asked about them..

yes locked down or something cause they are freaking cluttered now.
I'll bump it now. Guy tried to put together a sticky like this, but never got stickied.

But where would the feedback go though... and all those "how do i turn on my phone so i can install this rom" questions?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835928
im trying to gather resources to make a website devoted to presenting ROM's in a easy to use way. check it out. thanks
so ive been pondering on this all day and this is my conclusion:
how about the development section actually being a developement section, and all "what modem should i use?" or "will this work the the i900 kernal?" or the "when is the updated version coming out?" could go in the q&a section where they belong, what we need are more mods that are a little more active in moving threads and deleting unnecessary posts out of the development section, can you imaging how much more smooth our devs could work if they didnt have to sort through 20 posts to find one that might help them with the actually development.
oh and one more thing, that captivate bible thing, that was an excellent idea, would have done a lot of great things and helped many people, but no one goes through and updates it, what a waste :/
I found this a while back. I found out quite a-bit about our phones from it...Seems to me since this is already up and running..maybe the owner wouldn't mind adding a section for custom Roms and maybe the themes as well ? Wouldn't hurt to ask them anyway..I did just a few minutes ago
Mac
The easiest way is to look for the threads Labled {Rom}? This has been brought up over and over again. It tried a few times but never went anywhere as most at to busy to keep the roms on more then one website. As for the questions being asked they belong in the thread for the rom they use and not in Q&A.
I think he was talking about all the other questions in the development section. What Im talking about is something like just roms in a section, if u want to ask questions or talk about rom fine but be only under that rom thread, U would have a Section Clean of all kinds of post and other development stuff, Have a certain format for titles in the rom section, where it would be uniform. I know there still under development but it would be clean, and easy to find.
I like this idea. It should be formatted sort of like DG's thread. All questions goes on that thread for development and on the first page the links would point to the ROM section where people can download the roms they need look at screen shots.

ROM reviews

Post ROM reviews here.
Start with a Title listing all ROMs, this will help to check post quickly.
Everyone can't test each and every ROM available here. So whoever have tried as much ROMs, please post the reviews about it. Compare with it other ROMs those which you've used.
Compare on the basis of Speed, Battery life and bugs/errors, FCs, etc.
Do recommend a ROM on your own experience.
First, this should be posted in the general section. Second, we already have a sticky discussion thread about ROMs! (No offence)
Yeah, we have another thread, but if this one goes the way I think he wants it would be a different type of thread

@Jason-EX: This thread is regarding sharing of Own experience of all ROMs which one may've used.
@stubborn_d0nkey: You are right.
::urpose of this thread:::​
1) To know all pros and cons at one place.
2) It is kinda difficult to conclude from reading all posts from a specific ROM which errors are there, how one and his G3 feels about it.
3) Other threads get jumbled and cluttered by questions of members and their queries.
:::My Intention:::​
I want to try other ROMs(gonna be on vacation now!), but when I see Not Working list: May be more, some FCs... I and every member gets confused what all it have and not.
:::Rules of this thread:::​
1) Only reviews should be posted.
2) No queries and questions regarding any thing (do post and ask in specific thread).
3) No error and bug reporting.
4) Don't make any post which may humiliate others.
:::IMP:::​
All ROMs are great.
ROMs' usability depends upon personal use (such as Testing, give a try, daily use, etc).
However if MOD finds this thread to be unnecessary or posted in wrong section, he can Delete or Move thread. I don't mind (no offence!). MOD can do what he feels right.

Sorry, it was my first post in xda forum...
I'm using Linux so I can't use Virtual Router. Ans I can't use my laptop as an AP cause it uses an Intel 3945ABG chip. The only way for me to have a wifi access is ad-hoc. I've been using it with an iphone, I didn't imagine one second it could be a problem with Android.
Thankx again
I don't think a thread of this kind is of some help
I have observed in g3 community that all the people have different opinions of various roms and hence most of the reviews won't be transparent
The second thing is that roms get updated frequently but the reviews won't
The third thing is that the reviews are posted as replies and most of them well be seperated by other off topic posts like mine and all above ones so it is difficult for those looking for the best ROM

Try giving a thought for my second and third opinions like contacting moderator to delete useless posts or something like that
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA
If the open reserved an extra post or two he could have used them to link to posts with reviews for gone and organize them
What's the use of thread if no one is going to post a review
Contact the moderator and ask him whether it is useful or not and Also ask whether it needs to be posted in general section or not
If he finds it useful ask him to make it a sticky thread
Also ask him to remove all the useless posts and reserve some more posts

[Q] The best current rom?

Hey guys,
Returned to xda after a long long time, had even forgotten my previous username/password so made a new id!
Quick question, which is the best current rom for desire s? By best I mean the one which is stable, the most lag-free and hang-free, and if possible, has a good battery life.
I've been on sabsa prime for a long long time now and it had a very crappy battery life and it hangs like a massive saturday morning hangover.
How is the [ROM][16 July][4.0.4][Sense 4.1 Full][OTA|HUB|Tweaks|v1.1.0 ModPack] SVHD v1.7.3 rom? I've done a quick browse through the dev forum and it seems to be the better one.
Any quick help would be much appreciate. I'll flash after the first 5 or so recommendations asap
These type of 'best' rom posts are not permitted on xda as you will get 10 different answers from 10 different people and can cause arguments. Please do not make these threads on xda.

I understand but how else am I supposed to figure out which rom I should use. I mean I can't go around installing every single rom and keeping it for a number of days to test them. that would take too much time.
one of the purposes of the fourm is to help people, right?
Can I request the mods to lock this thread, after exactly 10 replies? That would serve both purposes. Thanks

Actually, the sole purpose of XDA is Development. It is not a helpdesk for noobs - if you disagree with that view then that shows you haven't done much searching and reading yet.
Pick 3 or 4 of the ROMs which look best to you, install each one, test it and then move on to the next - that is exactly what we all do with our devices. The only person who can judge a ROM is you - some ROMs might work well for one person so they recommend, but you hate it or it kills one of your applications. Benchmarks are useless and serve no real-world purpose.
Just download, flash, try and see what suits you.

I understand what you're saying. I'd like to add that I'm in fact not a noob and have tried about 7-8 different roms on my desire s in a period of 3 or 4 months, towards the end of last year. I have a job now and no time for these things so I was just looking for a quick fix. Just some decent reviews from people who use the roms on these forums.
Please STOP posting here, you're ruining this thread and you're doing exactly what the first reply warned about.
If anyone wants to say a sentence or two about a specific rom, please post, otherwise don't.
IF the mods have a problem, then lock it. I strongly request you to leave it open for 10-12 replies and then lock it but it's up to you.
Good day.

Hi @Zhing xina
I have moved this thread to the correct section and have removed the duplicate you created in Q&A. Please never post duplicates and be mindful where you post. This is universal courtesy on the entire Internet, not just on XDA. If you realise you've made a booboo, that's alright, but please don't try to fix it yourself. That's why we are here! Benevolent little creatures crawling all over the place. Below every post you'll find a 'Report' button, please click that and detail your needs in there to call us in for maintenance – or when people make a big booboo . There are several teams of us dedicated to all parts of the forum (here's a list). It may take some time to cater to your needs but we'll get there eventually. Patience is a wonderful thing. And so is reading! @BillGoss said it, this thing is beautiful. Also very helpful can be this one: [GUIDE] - XDA New User Guide - Getting started on XDA.

To get to your original question: that really depends on your needs. For some reliant on specific applications (banking/government/work apps) custom ROMs or even unlocking the bootloader are in some cases (not all!) a no-go. In the development section you've undoubtedly seen an overwhelming amount of selections to choose from. I usually browse the ones on top as those still have an active userbase going on. If the OP (Original Poster) is still part of the conversation, that's a major plus! Then I first read the first post (also called OP - Original Post) of the ones that seem interesting. As you'll get more acquainted with ROM development groups, you'll develop a personal preference towards some of them. My personal preference used to be Resurrection Remix; I really loved that scene. But for aforementioned reason I'm sticking with stock (and some Magisk module tweaking) for now. It's imperative to read the last few pages of a ROM thread, like this you may detect if there are any ongoing known problems (3rd party camera apps not working, quirky bluetooth, FP reader broken, etc.). Time is key here. Taking some time to delve into the topic can avoid a lot of frustrations. I suggest at least a few hours of research before making the jump. Good luck on your ROM quest!
