By buddy is thinking about grabbing an S5 on Sprint, and he wants to use CM11 or CM12 (depending on stability)
Does anyone here have experience with CM12 to this point? Does mostly everything work properly?

I am getting the itch to put on a custom ROM of my GS3, but I have a Fitbit One and would like for it to continue to update over the phone. I've tried CM10.1, but it appears that there is a problem with the BT4.0 and the phone doesn't want to try to connect to the fitbit. I'm not close to a computer much currently to update the fitbit.
TL: DR- Is there a working ROM where the BT4.0/BLE is working somewhat properly?
Thanks in advance.
I'm looking for the same thing. I switched back to a Stock variant to get BT4 working and the Stock ROM is total garbage after using Cyanogen Mod. I don't want to have to choose one or the other!
There is not a single ROM out there at the moment that has Bluetooth 4.0 working. Google has not released or included a lib file for it to work. Sure our devices have the hardware but the software has no clue how to utilize it. Maybe next version of android will have it.
The 4.1.2 Omega ROM was working for me. The ROM will need to be based off of Samsung's official as it will need their hacked Bluetooth stack - they worked directly wth Fitbit to get it up and running. I've since upgraded to the Omega 4.2.2 AOKP ROM and it no longer works (which I expected).
BLE
The only ROM that i've found with working BT4/BLE is the one by beanstown.. i do confirm it working just fine for my fitbit flex.

I have a fitbit as well and I am trying to figure out what it would take to get it working with CyanogenMod. I flashed an unofficial 10.2 (4.3) and still no luck with the fitbit.
try the 4.3 version of CM in teh development section? I thought this was an added or fixed feature in teh newest version of android. not too sure though.
I did a quick search for this, but would anyone happen to know if someone is working / building port of the Vanir rom? I have it on my nexus devices and it is fast as hell...
Thanks!
No as the phone it is for has lower specs then the s3. As of now the following ROMs can be ported to the phone are s3 ROMs from other carriers and Note 2 ROMs. MIUI can also be ported to the phone. So far only one note 2 ROM has been ported to this device
If your looking for fast, try out the Hyperdrive ROM.

Wait, I'm confused. Vanir is an AOSP based Rom, so there shouldn't be that much other than adding in the stuff specific to the S3, right? The Vanir Rom (or at least what I know of it) is on the N7, N4 and the GNexus...
I guess I'm a bit confused.
Put it this way no one is planning to port it to the s3 if they were it would've been here by now.
Hm...I guess in that case: Do any of you guys know of any good guides for porting AOSP roms over? I tried following one way back when when I had a rezound and CM10 first came out but never got too deep in it. Figure it is worth a shot, I've got a Ubuntu VM waiting to go...
Before you do that you must seek the permission from the developers.
To port something over from github / source?
Now I'm officially confused.
I am really having issues getting CM12 running properly on the acclaim i.e. nook tablet (bntv250a).
Currently running cm11 thanks to some really excellent advise from LS.xD on here.
But using the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nook-tablet/development/cm-12-l-lollipo-nook-tablet-acclaim-t3019125
Just can't seem to get it going. Really sluggish. Never fully got though the registration. Flashed the recommended recovery just like on cm11.
The thread doesn't really recommend a gapps just say they are available. Maybe that's the problem but I don't think so.
So if there is anyone actually using this old tablet and has CM12 working properly I sure would like to compare notes.
thanks
Hey guys, I've been searching around for a rom that is compatible with the Sprint variants of the G920/G925. I've been having lots.. and I mean LOTS of trouble finding a rom that works with my phone (I have a G925P). An answer to this would really help me out ^^
I do have a list of what I want in roms as well, I'm looking for the following:
Rom is running Android 6.0.1 and beyond
Currently being maintained
Debloated and De-Knoxed
Compressed Size
Have apps like Android Pay to work (Apps using SafetyNet)
Has option to keep stock kernel for Magisk and Systemless Xposed
Multi-user Support
Battery Friendly
Allows for lockscreen customization/custom lock apps
And there you go, that's mainly what I'm looking for. Now, if it's an entire OS like LineageOS, I'm willing to try it but, it must fall within the lines of what I'm looking for (or as close as possible). Any answer would be acceptable IF it runs on my phone without any problems (basically, just throw out any answer you have).
Also, here is a list of ROMs I have already tried/searched:
Renegade v7 (No longer being maintained but I am currently using it)
LineageOS (Someone else confirmed that the kernel isn't compatiable with the G920P/G925P)
Mostly Stock for Samsung S6 Edge (I actually plan on trying this one again, as it is debloated and looks more like the stock so I can use more Xposed Modules)
CarRom HD (This bricked my phone after flashing the kernel, data didn't work when I had gotten it to work BEFORE I bricked it)
Alexis ROM (Doesn't work with Sprint variants)
I'm currently using Big Daddy PL3 Aroma V1.x which works great. I haven't been able to get magisk to work as of yet, but everything else is great.
I am looking for a 7. x ROM where Bluetooth Phone Audio and WIFI work correctly. I have already tested many Customs. Nexus, LineageOS, Ressurection etc. etc.
Make it yourself if you cant wait for them to fix it
also I'm using a nexus based oreo rom and all of those things work for me
also im guessin you want a AOSP based nougat rom not Touchwiz?
DrKetan_custom_ROM works fine. Its a note 5 ROM ported to s6. I have not had any real issues with it. However I just upgraded to NexusOS-8.1.0-zerofltexx-20180113 and I have had no issues on Oreo that I could not get around. But keep in mind I am a computer programming student. So if I have an issue with root or init.d or permissions I simply fix the issue and move on.
