Hi everyone
I would like to have some information on the rom mentioned in the subject line;specifically the one in the following link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-0-t3094423
I have installed the previous ROM before but I have several issues such as fingerprint,video editor,saving mode not working.
This is my current version
What's the best and least invasive way to install the latest version.
Should I do a clean install?
My phone is slow at the moment so need to get it sorted and I'm thinking to get the latest ROM which might fix those previous issues.
Can someone tell me what's the best approach? thank you

Hi, I'm far from an experienced modder. I only root for hotspot tether, to eliminate Sprint bloat, and for certain apps that need it (like call recorder). I currently have the RODT ND2 4.4.2 ROM and want to find the least complicated way to get to a STABLE, rooted, official-ish version of Lollipop. I'm not looking of an adventure or to do this regularly.
Can anyone please advise:
Which ROM would be least complicated to install? Will it support OTA updates or no?
What's the best way to keep (or transfer) all my app data without corrupting things or having to reset every app?
Any known issues I should watch out for in the upgrade process?
Appreciate your help on this!
Check metalfan's rom in this section. It's close to stock and he got rid of annoying pop-up notices
You really should be asking this question in the General forum. This forum is for development only.
Yeah, wasn't sure if this was the right place for it. I don't see a delete option so I can re-post... Can a Mod move it?
1. You need to flash the full tar 5.0 with Odin
2. Titanium Backup
3. You can't run any 5.0 roms until you have updated everything with the tar (bootloader specifically)

Side note, only the full tar, unrooted, will get OTAs. Custom roms will not.
Thanks for the reply. Is there a specific ROM you recommend?
Also, I read somewhere that lollipop had a somewhat different file system. Will that cause problems with apps/data restored using Titanium from 4.4.2?
Thanks. Will check it out. How well supported is it when there are updates or bugs?
I didn't have a problem restoring apps. Tdunham has a basically stock rom but I don't think he is doing much with it now, MOAR is stable and ever evolving, my rom is pretty stable as well as it is based off of tdunhams rom with a few features from MOAR.
Hi.
Ever since I received the OTA update for 5.1, I've been experiencing big wakelocks (bam_dmux_wakelock) that are affecting the battery life of my device. After days of googling I've been unable to find the culprit, let alone a solution for this problem. So I'm contemplating installing a stable custom ROM . I've always wanted to try Cynogenmod but I was unsure how to do it and lacked the motivation. I have it now, but I have a simple question that hopefully someone can answer here:
Do I need to be in a specific version of stock Android in order to install a given version of CM? For example, do I need to be in 5.0 in order to install CM12 or can I do it from 5.1? None of the guides I've seen mention this requisite, but I want to be sure.
Thanks in advance

You need the 5.0.X bootloader for CM12. For CM12.1 it depends on the particular ROM you are flashing. Once official CM12.1 comes out I am sure you will need the 5.1 bootloader.
For cm12.1 CAF I flashed the 5.1 radio and boot loader then proceeded to flash BaNkS 12.1CAF with his gapps followed by SuperSU 2.46
Hi,
I'm referring to, for instance, this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4i/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3212636 where it is advised to upgrade to a certain stock ROM before I flash the new ROM.
My impression was that the new ROM overwrites everything, so why would it matter what my old ROM version was?
Can someone please point me in the right direction before I mess around?
Thanks and kind regards,
Esuhi

Well, in newer versions of MIUI has newer kernel sources and device codes that isn't yet available to us... The only one available are the 5.6.11 versions of MIUI code, flashing a rom over newer MIUI versions is highly not recommended as it could lead to bootloops...
that makes complete sense, thanks!
Official web site doesn't seem to offer 5.6.11 anymore, however.
http://en.miui.com/download-263.html
Should I resort to images found on the forums?
Or should I go with a ROM that doesn't mention this issue?
omerjerk for instance doesn't discuss this for CM12.1 stable ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63031048&postcount=3
(OP had wrong link; here's an example of a ROM w/ this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4i/development/rom-resurrection-remix5-5-5-t3196222 )
You can find a mirror for miui 5.6.11 fastboot rom here:

I have searched a lot in the Galaxy J7 thread. I couldn't find a single rom where the J7 3G Edition is totally supported. I don't wanna look upon thousands of comments to find out which is the correct rom. So, I would be grateful if anyone could kindly tell me which rom is best for the J700H-DS and where do I also find the TWRP for this specific phone. The rom must be stable (really minor bugs are fine, but not major ones). I also don't mind an older version of android, unless it's older than 6.0.1.
To anyone who can actually help me out correctly, thank you in advance.
@UnluckyGuy69 Thread closed as you requested.
Hi Guys,
I have a Samsung gt n8010. As its original firmware does not work anymore, I need something newer. I don't mind customization or anything else then, that it "works properly" and security.
What do you recommend?
(If you include a how-to or point out to a tutorial, even better )
100% working then standard stock Samsung firmware .

I am using the Linage 16 found on here as my daily ROM. It is stable and it does everything I want it to do. It is slow on my tablet, but it brings me the ability to run the apps I wanted to use. The install instructions are in the first post. Update it using the included updater.
