So I hope I an not the only one but I love taking advantage of tweaks and stuff once I root my phones. So if you know of any tweaks or cool customizations that you can only do with root, such as things you have to flash or apps to modify you device to enhance it. If you know of any please post it in a reply, thanks!
This site is full of them, just look. Look into the Apps and mods section or development. Explore a bit before you ask others to serve it up to you.

Ok Guys, Its my first post here but I have been lurking around here for quite some time, so I wont be as annoying as most noobs I guess
Anyway, I've tried many different ROMs on my captivate and I find all of them to be pretty good but I am yet to find one which packs all the goodies I want. They are not too much to ask for IMO. I need your advice and suggestions on this.
I want a ROM with the following in it:
-Extended Power menu(Recovery, Download)
-Touchwiz4 or Touchwiz4.5 launcher
-Gpsfix
-SuperUser Enabled
-ICS boot animation
-ICS themed( but wiht TW4)
-Some Tweaks for more battery life
- Some cool lockscreens(Preferably the ICS lock should be there)
- Shouldn't scoop up too much of memory( In some roms I couldn't get more than 120mb free RAM even in idle state. I want at least 170mb free)

Unfortunately, no one can tell you whats good for you. The only way to go about this is to read. From your questions, it appears that you dont appear too noob So, read the OP and last couple of pages of the threads. They should give a fair idea if anyone is facing any particular issues.
On side note; it appears KK4 source code has been released. So you may want to wait for some time before the magicians (Read: developers) wind their magic for ROMs and kernels.
If none of the roms have all the features...find one with the hardest to do (lock screen for example) and then add the rest in yourself.
This is xda...a place not only to download cool stuff..but also a place to learn how to do things yourself.
Like saying it needs to have a certain boot animation and launcher, that is EASILY changed.
I have found Fasty lll a real nice rom if you haven't tried it yet give it a shot. All you can do is try them to see if you like them.

I've flashed MANY different ROM's, and not a single one has given me exactly what I wanted for features(Quite frankly, it's not the Dev's duty to fulfil my every wish). So what you end up with is, find a ROM that has as many of the most important features for you, that aren't apk related, load it, and modify it to suit your needs.
Truely, that is the best you're going to get. There are SO many different options available that it would be near imposible to find one that hits each and every thing on your list.......UNLESS you build the ROM yourself, and you can then cook it to suit your needs
No single ROM can fulfil your every desire...every rom has its highlights and low points but miui is better but u need to look for a touchwiz apk and install. On the bright side miui has customizable boot screen and lock screen

This can turn in a redundant thread since every person has different needs.

I sincely don't mean to ask "What's the best ROMzerwow!?" But here's the details anyway, (sorry); I'm looking to help out my old man by making his phone last just a few hours longer which means: Teaching him to use the power switches for wifi & Data, etc. That's my end. but what I cant do, I need to find which is:
• Debloating the phone
There's a lot of crap he doesn't need, let alone use!
• Adjustable Font Size
Most key is a ROM/MOD that allows for LARGE font sizes as sight isn't his strongest point anymore.
• Stability
I understand I'm asking for perfection but I'm not expecting it. That said, which ROMs are the most stable for the Charge? from what I've read, Tweaked ROMs seems to be popular but what seems to be (even an outdated one ie CM7-like, Gingerbread etc) are fine. I want to be able to install and customize the settings for the ol' man and never touch it again to keep things simple and pain free for him (and me).
If I am asking much feel free to point me elsewhere. I came across Odin Flash Guide So I'm assuming this will make it as pain free as possible once I can settle on a ROM or two to experiment with. Just remember to tell me which Build of the ROM you're suggesting
Thanks for your input! Cheers.

right now, Tweaked is the only game in town - and it's quite awesome! tweaked will debloat. as for font size, I think installing GO launcher allows for customization of that.
regarding battery life, not much aside from minimizing number of apps installed and accounts synced. for me, I found that juice defender works best.
There is also options in Accessibility menu...

Thanks for the info, which build seems to be the easiest to install and go without having to worry about bugs?

We've got the fonts already on large but because of my inexperience outside of Moto Defy roms, I'm just making sure it'll be Large no matter what. Thanks!
As a few of you may know me from the xda forums and my contributions every now and then i get an old device i like to mess around on where i either create a great rom or tool or toast the device, now is the galaxy note 3's turn.
I will be throwing together a rom based on the latest officially supported update for the note 3 and will be making the rom as flexible as can be, this includes stabillity mods, optimization mods, mods to make the device alot smoother and fluent and ofcoarse my internal theming kit, bringing almost every manufacturs launcher themes to this device, debloated(seperate bloat installer), but since i dont know much about the device i would like some feature request everyone would like to see on the note 3, development will commence as soon as i get feedback.

Hello,
We don't own the device so it would be difficult to recommend you a ROM.
I'd recommend you to have a look at S4 Forums and find a suitable ROM for your variant.

I would like to see if a dev grabs this and do an aroma installer with the right debloat options and with some improvements like we can see in HADES, any dev is willing to do this with all the performance and speed and battery save stuff?
you guys would like to see this happening?
we need a good dev lets go @corsicanu
