Daily driver material?
Hi!
Just wondering..is this rom good enough for daily use? Is it better than stock 4.1.2 (4.2.2 is terrible btw) because i do bot know whether to flash this or not. Also, can you flash it using cwm as I dont really like the TWRP ui

I think it's stable enough for daily use. I use it for many days without any restart or any problem.
You have to update to 4.2.2 first (It won't work on 4.1.x bootloader)
You must know to backup whatever data you don't want to loose cause a full wipe is needed.
Read the first post for warnings, bugs etc. The main bug is bluetooth headset (if you own one).
And yes, you can install from CWM. Instructions on first post.
Also, read third post to keep it fast as long and as "hard" as you use it.

I think @Bestaki23 should compile with 240dpi density.

@sujith88 no, for custom roms you need custom recovery ( CWM or Philztouch)

How to get sources for CM11 for I9105P?
In "[ROM][4.4.4][UNOFFICIAL][M11]Cyanogenmod 11.0" the location of the device specific source code is given as https://github.com/SamsungBCM-Cyanog..._samsung_s2vep and https://github.com/SamsungBCM-Cyanog...ys2plus-common and https://github.com/SamsungBCM-Cyanog...ys2plus-common.
How can I set up a build environment for the I9105P? I already read (an understood) "Learning to build Cyanogenmod" and getting the CM11 sources with repo is no problem, the only problem remaining is how to specify the above mentioned two device specific sources. Can this be done with a local mainfest in the local_manifest directory? If yes, how does this have to look like and what steps are necessary to sync with these two repositories? Are additional steps specific to the I9105P necessary to start a build?

Vibration
So you said the rom is good for daily use... In the main thread I saw numerous comments about vibration being buggy and sometimes non functional. Is this true? The 4.4.2 cm11 by cooldevelopement has fully working vibration. So should I flash cm11 m11 (4.4.4) or 4.4.2? And in the m11 build, are there any other bugs apart from whats listed under "known issues"? Now Android lollipop is just round the corner I hope to have at least the second latest android version :/ 4.1.2 is starting to show it's age when it comes to app compatibility...

Hi, thanks for replying! I already know there is a 4.2.2 offical firmware for the s2 plus, thanks. I dont know about you, but when I updated it I experienced major lag issues, even after doing a factory reset, claering cache, reflashing, etc. Its overall a terrible update from the almost bug free 4.1.2. However, 4.1.2 is soon 3 versions behind and I was looking into flashing one of these awesome looking ROMs that are running 4.4. (Just love how AOSP looks :3) However, I dont really know which ROM i should flash
I think I have decided to flash a cm rom, anyways, but which version should I flash? I used cooldevelopement's cm11 4.4.2 rom in the past, which seems mostly bug free. However I switched back to stock 4.1.2 due to the old youtube app versions having the pixelated vid that the 4.2.2 stock rom used to suffer from. Is this 4.4.4 cm Better or worse than the older 4.4.2 cm I installed before? Thanks in advance sorry for a long message

Hi, after the upgrade from M10 to M11, when the battery goes under the 15% of charge com.android.system.UI FCs and I can't do anything but remove the battery from the device to shut it down. Anyone has this problem?

hi, i have this issue too.
Any ideas on how to solve it?
Do i have to submit a bug ?

i flashed the rom on stock rom 4.1.2 and now it just stops at the boot screen(Samsung GT-I9105 screen). What can i do to fix this :/ ?

Have you had experience with SlimROM KitKat for the OnePlus One?

I saw XDA's new video summarizing SlimROM features. So I checked the official site for the SlimROM developer and I see there is a Bacon version for our phone.
I want to stay with KitKat for a while until I decide whether I can live without the Xposed framework.
I need to solve the random reboots and UI freezing problems I have been having with stock 11s.
So my questions go out to everyone who's tried flashing SlimROM 4.4.4:
If you previously experienced random reboots: does this ROM eliminate the problem?
Is this ROM stable and does it perform smoothly?
Are there significant bugs?
Are you continuing to run SlimROM 4.4.4 or have you abandoned it?
If you are still running it, what would you say to other OnePlus One owners about the advantages and drawbacks of this ROM?

Are there significant bugs?Slim is based on CM so the CM bugs are present of course

If you are still running it, what would you say to other OnePlus One owners about the advantages and drawbacks of this ROM?That's for you to decide, just try it. I loved Slim on my Sammy devices but CM with LMT is enough for me on the OPO

The answer to all your questions is this: read the comments in the ROM thread and/or test it for yourself.

One reason why I posted this thread is that I did not find any other threads on the vanilla SlimKat ROM. I did see a topic on a variant.
But lacking any further feedback, I followed the installation instructions at the official website which entail doing a clean wipe and then flashing ROM + gapps. Pretty straightforward. The result is very encouraging so far. The phone subjectively seemed to be responding more smoothly immediately after the flash. I've already reinstalled Xposed framework and related modules. And restored apps+data using Titanium Backup. It's a little less than 24 hours but I have not had a single random reboot and not a hint of UI freezing.
I'm very encouraged. :good:
I'd love to know what is causing the random reboots. A poor image install at the factory? A defect in the CyanogenMod variant that OPO is using? Was it just the clean wipe that solved the problem? (And by extension would reinstalling 11s have been successful after the wipe?) I'll probably never know. But I am reasonably happy with SlimROM anyhow. So I'm inclined to keep it.

Installing Cynogenmod from 5.1

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

Advice Please regarding Marshmallow on Note 3

Hello.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 currently running the Vodafone official Lollipop ROM. I find it very sluggish and would like to speed it up.
Would I see any benefit in rooting my phone and going to CM13 or an alternative Marshmallow ROM ?
I have 2 apps that I use constantly - IBM Verse and VPNCilla, both of which I use for work. Would both of these apps work
on a custom ROM, as this would be a deal breaker if they did not.
If all of the answers to the above were yes, where would be the best place to download the necessary ROM etc, as it has been a while since I have done this.
Many thanks,
Simon

Yes marshmallow is more smooth relative to lollipop.
As for your apps it depends on the ROM, if the ROM you are using has a VPN bug it means you won't be able to use vpncilla properly ,just check known issues of the ROM before flashing to make sure
XDA is the good place to find development
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-0-t3238064 try any other if you don't like it ,lots of marshmallow based ROMs out there nowadays

Can you recommend an alternative ROM to the CM one, as it states on the link that was sent that there is a problem will Call Audio, which is a problem for me, as I use the phone to make calls.
Thanks.

Can't get much better than the stock rom that comes with it. Can't get much more stable. Why go to custom rom?

No random bluetooth, cellular and wifi driver crashes on this?

Here is the Optimized stock rom for you. You don't need computer to flash it as you can flash it via custom recovery like twrp.

None of them for me.

Try pure nexus ROM,very few app come out of the build and install only what you need.Very stable for me

Stock... You need stock ROM for this situation, it is the most stable and battery friendly and the least confusing. At least they could ask someone who has general familiarity with Android questions without going into menus on Res Remix or AICP or something that would confuse them.
The situation calls for simplicity, stability, and functionality... stock is the best choice. If you don't have your backup, look around here, there are plenty of tutorials on how to go back to stock.

Go with stock rom

I was also looking for a stable ROM for Moto G3 XT1541. Interesting to see all the recommendations here to stay with the stock ROM. My reason for considering a custom ROM was that I've stopped getting system updates: last was around June with Android patch security level 1 April 2017 so I've assumed no more updates are being issued. I'm not comfortable using a system that isn't getting security updates, so is a custom ROM the way to go?
(Hope this isn't considered thread hijacking, happy to post as new thread if so.)

Stock or LineageOS, as they don't have unnecessary customizations.
