Hi everyone, so, i JUST got a New G3 2 days ago, and i have it unlocked, there is just too many Roms and they are not really sorted to know which is optimized best for what. tho i have the 2Gb Variant, it does noticeably lag in the UI and general use, and that's worrying me because the phone is still brand new, i only have TWO apps installed (whatsapp & instagram) and when i open whatsapp for example, i just see a white screen for like 3 seconds before it opens, instagram also works fine for like 3 min, but if i just scroll down too far a while, it starts lagging horribly then force close, i had 5.1 LP, then upgraded to MM 6.0, it was even slower and worse battery, so i downgraded back to 5.1, so i want to get a custom Rom but a light Rom to help with performance best than anything else.
thanks in advance.
Try Cyanogenmod 13 first. It's the "barebones" experience if you couple it with Opengapps Pico or Nano. That's what I use on my 1Gb variant and it works splendidly. The battery usage can be minimized with some apps like Amplify and Greenify. (Look for "Extreme battery guide" on XDA, there's a really good guide there)
Try Krexus-CAF it's lightweight and fast
Any aosp based ROM + firekernel + govtuner (avoid cyanogenmod) and I lf you want to have an adventure install microG (lightweight replacement for gapps)

FYI... Almost all of our ROMs are based on CM because there is no other working device tree. Even the "AOSP" roms are CM at their core on this device.

Not disagreeing with you... But there are no roms for the G3 or Turbo that are not borrowing the rom core from CM, except modified stock roms. They may say "AOSP" but the core is borrowed from CM and everything else is built on top of it.
Personally, I would love to see Purity, Chroma, or Plain-Andy make it to our device, but knowing they would still have an underlying CM base is almost insulting.

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, 7.0 {P3110} Wifi
I'm pretty happy with it so far, I've installed Clockwork Recovery and CM10.
Anything you guys think I should do that I've left out? what about kernel?
Better Rom?
This is not the first time I've Rooted and Flashed a Rom, I had a little samsung phone, with CM 7, it's pretty old but it still works.
Thanks for your time XDA!

I believe that you have meant CM 10.1, if not then go for the newest.
I'm running Dhollmen Kernel which I recommend. It's stable and have few nice things when it comes to OTGing.
Enable developer settings (hit build number in Device Information section few times) and set your scheduler/governor. I use SIO or ROW for scheduler and pegasusq for governor, but test and choose which one suits you best.
I would also recommend you to use different recovery. PhillZ Touch is my personal favorite.

Whoops, I did mean CM 10.1, sorry,
Phillz Touch has a ubuntu feel to it, {Mainly due to the background} I may stick to CW. Not because of the way it looks, it does look pretty nice, but I've used CW for some time. I may never know. I may flash Phillz Touch one day.
I've flashed Dhollmen's Kernel.
Thanks for the tips Ivyl!

PhillZ's recovery is modified CWM IIRC. I like it for it's touch accuracy, support for AROMA File Manager, and ADB root.
No problem, mate. Check other JB 4.2 rooms for their features. PAC seems to be popular. I prefer clean CM (it's fairly minimal, close to AOSP, I have flashable zip that removes some of the apps I don't use) with only few customizations. If it isn't the fastest solution it's at least good placebo. Official stable releases and updater are additional benefits.

I tried PAC, Nice little Hybrid Rom,
I'm sadly going back to old roots, I think I've always used CM. I tried PAC and it felt strange, it's nice, don't get me wrong, but what's the Pro's and Cons over CM?

I'm not sure what is "borrowed" from AOKP, but features from ParanoidAndroid are nice. It's hybrid UI with so-called Tablet Mode (like the one on stock ROM) and DPI control are mostly appealing to me. There is Pac-in-black switch too, and people seem to like inverted (or darkened) roms here.
Main con for me is too much everything. We get every feature from PA, CM and some from AOKP, which may be considered bloat (at least I do so). It hasn't got stable releases, need manual update downloads, and developer doesn't have the device.

I had cm10.1 and i switched to slimbean. It seems smoother and i like it a lot. Very stable, very smooth, you should try it! You wont be disappointed!

MoKee RC3, based on CM10.1 with extra features (PIE, HALO, transparent navbar and status bar, list view animation). Rock solid as CM10.1. Not as complicated as PAC. Combined with Dhollmen Kernel, CrossBreeder script, V6 Supercharger + patched services.jar and manually Odex your framework+system apps. Scored around 7,500 in Antutu with 1.2GHz OC. I have about >150 apps installed.
Well that's what I'm using right now.

Hi,
My brother has some issues with his phone (Moto G 2013, not dual SIM, not 4G) in the last time. The phone is quite unstable, so I recommended him to flash custom recovery, and eventually custom ROM.
The question is which one? This is not ROM vs ROM thread. I do not wont to compare ROMs. Just aks people for they personal experience. If anyone could recommend a stable (his/her personal opinion.) ROM, or comment lolipop, should I got for Kit Kat ROM or Loli (He still hasn't received the OTA update to Lolipop.).
I have tried to research a bit and find out for my self what would be the best option for him, but the task is not so simple, and pretty time consuming. Strange how everything, from rooting to flashing seem so complicated when one looks at the forum, when one actually only has to unlock the bootloader, fastboot flash recovery, and flash the ROM of personal choice (Here I need a bit help : )).
I hope the question is ok, if not... sorry in advance.

What is +gB? All general functionality like camera, sensors, GPS work normal, and stable?
Bit unrelated question about lollipop, is there a way to expand the notification card, like message or Google now card in notification bar? When I try to do that on my phone I only get the part with tiles (configuration shortcuts.)...
Thank you for your answer!

I really didn't expect to find so many xposed modules in so good shape so fast! And you mean they all work, even gravity box!
Regarding stability, I have found many people complain even about official OTA updates. My brother also has serious stability issues with offices stock original, not rooted ROM on his Moto G, so stock doesn't always has to mean stability. People often root and start using custom ROMs because issues with stock.
But that's another story ☺. Thank you very much for your recommendation and very useful input. You have saved me a lot of hours of reading mostly useless stuff. I will definitely make make him flash what you recommended ☺. He was a bit afraid first when he found our he is losing his warranty when he applies for a device number, for unlocking the bootloader, but I remind him that his warranty is anyway not valid any more, and now we are about to proceed with unlocking, flashing TWRP, and this Lolipop ROM you recommended.

hahahaha, I've been flashing Roms and kernels to see which would suit me best, and I found this amazing stock ROM with amazing battery life.
Cheers
If you want half-bleeding edge ROMs than Dirty Unicorns is quite good with a big load a custom tweaks HOWEVER, I found resource management (RAM mostly) on Dirty Unicorns was . . . less than satisfactory and battery life was average-not great. If you want an up-to-date and almost-as-many-tweaks-as-dirty-unicorns then Exodus is the way to go Rock solid, fluid and quite compatible with custom kernels.
Oh, and about kernels. I cannot recommend ZERO Byte kernel enough. Great battery life, even with slight overclock (meaning better performance) and supports underclock (battery save 2 extreme!)
If him want a stock like and rock stable try AOSP+OMS.
With MM based ROMs coming out with enough time for people to get used to them, along with LP and KK based ROMs that have been around for awhile, what are people's favorite S5 ROMs?
Which ones offered the most robust features?
The most stable with limited issues (HD calling, modem issues, wifi calling, accessing data and wifi)?
The best usability and customization?
The most attractive?
The best battery life?
For people coming from a stock android experience (Nexus, Moto, AOSP ROMs), which ROMs let you go back to that? I personally find TW to look atrocious (just a personal opinion) but there are very few TW ROMs that keep the framework intact, but that also let you have the stock experience.
i personally really like FreedomROM by DROIDRAZ because it allowed you to have the stock nexus system ui
You will need a CID 15 to run this - but I've tried tons of ROMs, and I always come back to Vanir. It's fast, very stable, and looks nice (it comes with the CM engine as well).
Battery life is also excellent :good:

I ended up going with Phoenix for my first one. Being able to use themes is helpful, because I can use a Material based one. But it's very bloated and has a few features that are pointless on the S5, and I'm spending nearly as much time debloating as I would on a Stock ROM.
Vanir does look really nice. I'm kind of worried about issues on not being on a TW ROM though. The is my first time using recoveries and Custom ROMs (Haven't bricked too bad yet), and not sure I'd be able to troubleshoot issues.

Great ROM, I wish he would update it!
I'd love to hear more suggestions on this topic -- I'm running OptimalROM 13.1 and really want to upgrade, but I was waiting for Verizon's stock MM to ship and custom variants of it to appear. I haven't had time to follow all the current ROMs, their pros/cons, and the ins/outs of installing them, particularly with KNOX etc.
I have the same list of considerations as MortimerR in his original post -- I'd like something that keeps all the good features of the stock Samsung/Verizon MM, while removing all the bloat/crap, and adding some cool tweaks and advanced options.

A lot of the VZW roms out now are being updated or have been updated to MM.
Give Phoenix a try.
I've found that coming from Moto and Nexus devices, TW is just not for me. But for people who are used to it, I think Phoenix is fully featured.

Most CM based ROMs for this device have issues. Hell, most CM based ROMs for any device have issues. For the record, I don't agree with him either, I'm using the NO_BS 5.0 ROM and it's only slightly better than stock...

I use BlissPop for my GTN8013 and I love it. But, for some reason on high demanding games (like FarmVille), it causes the game to be laggy even when overclocked, when other ROMs don't have this issue. I've considered going back to AndroidRevolution ROM (which is on KitKat), but it requires so many different things to even get it to boot.
But yes, I would recommend BlissPop. It's no longer getting updates, but it's the only stable one I've seen for the N8013.
IMO there is no better custom ROM out there than CM13 for this device....add a new battery and CM13 and you have a tablet that runs more efficiently than most current devices!

You can use slot A for OOS and slot B for Lineage Os 17.1 but first you have to install OOS on both slots and disable vbmeta after that before flashing anything.
Best AOSP rom in my opinion is AOSPA-Extened it has the Features I'm missing from the original AOSPA, why is this my favorite aosp rom?
It runs on Arters Kernel wich i absolutely love !
It has nice and useful features as screen stabilizer when u're driving or running (don't text and drive lol)
It has very very good battery life
It's buttery smooth and snapy
BUT it's missing some features which i love on OOS and yes i have those WiFi connectivity problems as well, it's in an Early stage but stable, but for now not my daily driver, btw it has that weird screen flickering along the fingerprint unlocking progress, the screen turns on bright for unlocking and goes back to normal for me it's like a flickering and it's anoying me...
my Personal and favorite Rom is the pure OOS + f2fs + arters kernel + RiCe tweaks,
I got everything i need from OOS, everything i need from AOSP
AND i got the McLaren themes which i absolutely love, so this is my daily, it runs for me much better with that tweaks, battery life is just insane.
If you are happy with pure AOSP go with AOSPA or even with AOSPA-EXTENED and u'll be happy!
But if ur missing some OOS Features try out the combination i just told u
