[Q/A] Anyone have any suggestions for ROMs/OS's that work on the G925P/G920P? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] Help finding a rom that comes with pdroid

Hello, I just rooted my Samsung galaxy note 10.1 gt-8013 running jelly bean. for the first time a few days ago. It was the first time I rooted anything. The reason I wanted to root it was pdroid. I have installed 3 or 4 different roms on it trying to get pdroid to work on them with no luck. I have also used the auto patcher like it says to. The tablet says it's installed, and have ran the auto patcher multiple times on each rom. When I look for it in the market it still won't show up. So I'm starting to get a little frustrated because I'm not sure if I'm just not using the auto patcher correctly or if it's just does not work on my table. If anyone knows of a rom that comes with pdroid with it. Or if anyone can point me to a rom and has the patch for pdroid. Any help would be appreciated.

I too hope a dev will one day integrate pdroid, on a multiwindow capable rom, until cm integrates this feature, i guess that means stock roms for now.......either integrate, or build their rom in such a way that is compatible with a pdroid patch .
Over on the official thread, looks like the dev has added stock compatibility, but i suspect its for specific stock roms, could be wrong

I think it was for very specific devices, if i got the gist of it right, i think a dev needs to implement it into a rom specifically for our note 10's
yes,but i've no knowlegde at all for doing this. i was hoping you found something.

I found out something similar to pdroid... it's called XPrivacy and runs on top of the Xposed framework. it needs root but it's pretty straight foward to install and use. it also works for pratically any rom including stock.
you can find the installation/user guide on github https://github.com/M66B/XPrivacy
I'm not 100% sure but there's an article on this on android police. it works like a charm for me (jb 4.1.2 on stock)
hope you find it usefull like i did!!

Just a stock deodexed rom?

I've been searching through the S6 forums and haven't come across what I'm looking for and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
I am currently using a Sprint Galaxy S6 and running an outdated custom rom ("Ramified OH1" and UniKernel v8), however this was the only option at the time to get a deodexed rom to run Xposed. What I'd like to do at this point is revert my phone to a stock rom based on the latest official release and have it deodexed so Xposed will still work. (I'd also like to try my hand at theming eventually)
My trouble is, all I can find is a handful of custom roms with mods I don't care for (I don't see why anyone would want a centered clock or this 3minit mod...I don't find either appealing) and a few semi-stock roms that don't match my current firmware version, so I don't even know what's safe to flash at this point.
In some ways, I'd also be satisfied if there was an AOSP or similar rom that would work on the S6, although I'd rather not lose the quicksettings bar that is part of TouchWiz roms. (At this point, the quicksettings bar is the only TouchWiz feature I care about, so I'd be happy with raw Android so that more Xposed mods could work)
I'd appreciate any suggestions or help that the community can offer on this issue.
At the very least, if anyone is familiar with theming an S6 nearly-stock rom, I'd appreciate the help to make some changes to some elements of my current rom to get a style I might like better.

[Q] 12.1 CM ROM port for Samsung Galaxy XCover 3 (SM-G388F)

Is there anyone who are more versed in android programming then I am who might be willing to work on a CM12.1 port for this otherwise rugged and very well balanced hardware-wise phone?
So far we got a working recovery and root, but as with all retail phones we are bogged with tons of bloatware and useless apps that kills the phone if removed, for instance you cant change DPI without it going nuts on you!
Tweaked my kernel and system as far as I can without making it unstable using 3C Toolbox PRO, but the phone function gets killed if I try to install Xposed framework for example so I have to forgo ready made tweaks to the system..
Am at a point where I have to admit defeat in attempting to further make it more user-friendly!

[Q/A] Anyone Know of Any Up-To-Date Roms?

Hey guys, I've been searching for ROMS that are for the SM-G925P (I have found some but they're not being maintained anymore). There is a specific one I'm looking for, which goes by the following guidelines:
Deodexed for Xposed (Systemless)
Debloated
Multi-User Support
Using Android 6.0.1
Works with a SM-G925P
That's pretty much what I'm looking for in a ROM.. the only one that's pretty close is Renegade HD, but like I said, its not being maintained anymore
I'd say your best bet is AlexisROM, so far its quite good for me, twisted kernel is also great for Android OS drains (If you do get them with this rom which I use to). I dont think most of the good 6.0.1 Roms are being maintained anymore as theyre getting ready for Android N, they're all quite stable though.
Does that rom run on the SM-G925P? I'm really curious since the last time I tried flashing firmware that wasn't compatible with my phone, it COMPLETELY bricked my phone. Even to the point I couldn't get it repaired. I got lucky the fact that it died and decided to start up again.

S6 Edge ROM wanted :(

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.
