Advice Please regarding Marshmallow on Note 3 - General Questions and Answers

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.

Make a back up of your original ROM. Any other ROM for this tablet are dead or left on BETA. The marshmallow beta sucks, the lollipop rom is abandoned .. The ROM i posted is the latest KITKAT from Samsung and it works awesomely. If you install the Kernel its going to be even more butter smooth. Make sure you install the ROM , boot into the device, then you can reboot to the recover and install the wifi and kernel zips or else youll get a FC on menus. Good luck .

OK thanks, but if one wanted to install a Lollipop Rom, which would be the most stable ?? I guess that is what I am asking.

I'll check it out, so far I have not installed anything, just waiting, there is no rush, maybe over the weekend, I'll give one of the Roms a go.
I did look at that Rom a week ago, and was not able to find the links for the Rom, and does not seem that the Dev is responding, if you have links to the Rom and Gapps, that would be great,
EDIT: was able to find a link from one of the members

I will check this out also when I get back in town, so far I'm leaning towards BlissPop and STab, I don't really need the Samsung stuff, all I want is an updated version, with less crap on the Tablet, for what I use it for only.

Which ROM should I flash?

Hey Guys, I have been strolling through different ROMs for GT 18262, but i dont know if they are totally stable or not, so i thought i would create this thread where all this info could be there.
I wnat to know whether there is a rom which fullfills this requirements:
1. Stable
2. Everything works including Camera.
3. Support for swap.
4. Possibly a higher Android Version than stock rom and not just themed.
Maybe I am asking too much, but i have Cosmic Rom with its final version flashed but i have this problem that the ROM would just stop responding and even after restarting i cant even unlock screen cause possible screen wouldn't respond. I tried many others like Monster Rom build 3, but the microphone didnt work when calling but worked on WhatsApp Call(lol). So please help me

M using cm11....and its best stable and customized rom ...u can later change the theme to lollipop and thats really good......imrunning this rom from over 5 months and have not a found a single bug
I already tried it, but apps like Gmail would crash when i open any email or even opinion rewards would just force close itself. Even some parts of Hike Messenger dont seems to work on it.
Any developer thinking to port Oreo Go Edition for this device! it will be a big help for this device.

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.

What Stock-based ROM are you still using (2018)?

Just got a spare Z3, and since this device has been quite inactive on developments and such, the most preferred route is to stay stock for stability.
Now, I looked on our Android Development section and there seems to have a couple of stock-based ROMs which are good, and now, even in 2018, I was wondering what stock-based ROMs you guys are still using?
Any bias comments are welcome as long as it's spoken through experience. Also, a combination of Stock-based ROM a Custom Kernel would be nice to hear as well, if you use those.
Thanks guys for noticing~

Ever heard of OFFICIALLY supported

Any ways to use cyberian camera on carbon oreo? Right now im using existenz on my z3c, everything is ok and it has tones of customizations i can recommend for z3 too. But the best rom for battery is still slimm rom. Whatever lets turn back to my question, only because it is not possible use cyberian cam on carbon oreo i will go for carbon nougat with xperia ui. Can you share your experience with snapdragon camera if you use oreo version?
i have djust used the default camera app that came preinstalled with the rom. as 3rd party apps arent as good as stock. And its really good enough.
and i dont like to use outdated roms still on 6.0 M
im a crazy chronic updater.

search in the Carbon or Omni Thread, someone posted magisk Modules for this
There should also be a guide in there for (regular) flashing this.

I got it in my pocket in this very moment. (It's
a core G-386W. More or less a late model with better parts. 0.5gb of more RAM iirc
Really run smoothly in most conditions. Still love it. Only replaced it with a LG V20 (not letting go of that removable battery) for OS reason.
I still have mine works great for me I just wished I could update it so I can get some newer aps so at least I could connect my smart watch with it. the only thing I did was years ago installed rooted it and installed kitkat ( I think it was back in 2014) other then that haven't done anything but bought a new battery

Does Wi-Fi and cellular networks work? I installed CM12.1 on mine, everything works perfectly, except the Wi-Fi and calls/sms
I know I am almost 2 years late to the party but I will leave this for those who are willing to dive into the rabbit hole. I managed to build a "functional" lineage18.1 for the SM-g386W Afyonltecan and I am willing to share it as well as the source so that hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will take the lead or help to fix the bugs so that we can enjoy this piece of history for few more years. Don't get me wrong, it is far from perfect and so far only worked on my device. I also successfully build lineage 16.0 and twrp 3.7.0 but they are too buggy to be useful as is.
