Best ROM for Galaxy TAB 2 - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I want to send my phone for warranty service, Galaxy TAB p3100 will replace for week my phone. I've read about ROMs for this tablet, but I still don't know which should I choose. I want to use FB messenger, snapchat and chrome on it, I know that it's old device but i want the most smoothest ROM. Would you recommend me one?

im also looking for an answer for this... doesnt have to be the best, but just be the less lag/stable custom rom.. can anyone give recommendations/opinions/feedbacks for custom roms based on Marshmallow? except AOSP...
nougat roms as ive read and i've tried some, are still unstable/laggy.. so thats a no no for me..
my current options are installing custom roms based on Marshmallow with pico gapps / with microg?
im aware that without installing gapps, i'll get better and stable rom experience... ive tried it but I couldn't bear the lack of gapps and the unsatisfying alternative apps..

LineageOS... I have their last nightly on mine and it runs fine for a dual core 1GHz tablet.

are u using the Official LineageOS 13 Marshmallow? official lineageos for our device seems to have been removed in lineageos website download.. discontinued?
edit: i'll try other roms with oms/substratum support like Resurrection Remix OS or OmniROM since i bought some substratum themes, dont want to waste it.. lineageos only has legacy mode for substratum.

Yes, and yes it has been discontinued... But you can build the lineage nightlies yourself like I do as long as you have the blobs.

I knew I had Android-Andi's links somewhere, I also recall being able to use the way back to get LineageOS room files also. But they may have removed them entirely at this point.

Resurrection remix
Everything works for me except boot animation on new version of Resurrection remix shows white screen sometimes& when will I get the latest version of Android 6.0for resurrection remix
That's fantastic! I tried the AOSP 6.0 and it's fantastic! I don't know if it's a lot for were device, but I done almost 14.000 points on AnTuTu! It's a good result, I wait for new updates!
Question
Will there be the possibility to use external memory as the default memory in the PURE Marshmallow in the section Original android development?
Works fine!
Even the alpha release works fine. I use it for 2 days and there are no major issues or crashes. Everything works. Only some little things (f.ex. you have to install a keyboard fix). CM 13 works faster and smoother than LP. Nice work GHsR, waiting for the stable version!

OPPO R7 Plus MIUI 7 ROM

Dear All,
I would like to know when we will get MIUI 7 Custom ROM based on 5.1.1, as we have already 2 "Official Custom ROMs":
1- Cyanogen 12.1 ROM.
2- PA ROM.
I hope from the developers to contribute to build this nice MIUI 7 ROM based on 5.1.1 .
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Mulham Darwish
You have to ask MIUI developers, it is not available yet: http://en.miui.com/download.html
What PA rom you are talking about?
PA = Paranoid Android

Dear Nexus5,
I have already asked them, but it seems no respond from them.
PA = Paranoid Android, and here is the link for R7 Plus:
http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=42195&extra=
They said that it's running smoothly without any issue, so can you test it
Thanks.
thx, tested the PA rom today, and it is in early stage of development, no features yet. Cant even change the buttons yet. But it is great there is another alternative to original ColorOS rom

Stable LG G3 android 6.0 Rom?

What is a good stable android 6.0 rom based. I tried RR but there is often freezes and crashes thats pretty annoying. x.x. Plus I like exploring.
Help. ;~:
Fulmics ROM stock based.
For stock based I would say BlackSoulxx stockmod and Fulmics. For aosp I have no idea.
You can try Fulmics 4.2
OctOS is by far the best AOSP ROM for our device.
Yes Fulmics is the best ROM for G 3 but don't try flashing a custom kernel at the moment they are crape and don't let you boot the device.

I did a search for OctOS, and all I could find was a 5.1.1 AOSP based ROM. Is there an Android 6.0 OctOS ROM available? Since that was the query of the thread. I have tried Resurrection Remix, OrionOS, and TurboROM. I am currently running TurboROM. Each of these have had their issues.
Could you provide a link to OctOS 6.0? I would love to give it a try.

If you go onto the OctOS page, teamoctos (dot) com/release-builds/, they have the builds for marshmallow uploaded :good:
Im running Exodus rom right now and i get good life out of it and almost no lag.

Thanks for the heads up, I will definitely take a look.
'Preciate ya!
UPDATE:
I have been running OCT-M-R1 for a day now. None of the other custom AOSP ROM issues. Right now I am inclined to agree with you. Best AOSP 6.0.1 I have tried yet.

Is Slimroms any good?

Howdy, everyone. I have SM-G313HN and it has CM-12.1 Installed. Its not very smooth. I have a friend, who can compile roms to my device and i found SlimLP. is this any good for better battery life, performance etc?
A mobile device's performance basically depends on its hardware ( CPU / GPU / RAM ).
BTW: SlimLP is deprecated. See also here
[CLOSED][DEPRECATED] SlimLP

All of this dpends on rom quality and device specs. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (1 GB ram) and except for SlimKAT (Android 4.4), LP, MM, N are not at all good. All of them are slow and if installed gapps, they are terrible !! Only SlimKAT is best among Slimroms for Tab 2.

I have experience of Ressurrection Remix (android 6) because no one made any android 5 RR rom for tab 2. RR (android 6) is one of the best roms I've found (for galaxy tab 2)

Yes that's possible. Maybe a kernel or some thing might help in having best performance.
Im still trying the slimLP cuz its pure android

If you are a googlfree user, you don't need gapps.
If you are needing gapps you are wrong with LeOS. Then you should use the standard LOS19.1 rom. There you can install all these spying apps like gapps

Does this rom inherit the bugs of LOS 19.1 unofficial, or is this Source built?
Im interested in this rom, as a user of Calyxos with microG
Although I cant relock the bootloader, i guess this is somewhat better compare to vanilla LOS.
Thanks.

LeOS-19.1 is based on LOS29.1
LeOS-S isbased on latest AOSP sources
no additional bug removal.
Relock a bootloader is not recommend. In most cases you will loose all your data. Relock bootloader is, as far as,I know only eorking on some pixel devices and Fairphone
