frankly speaking its ALMOST useless to use custom roms on Tablets.... cause most of the GOOD developers who make the roms for tablets like CHARCK, dont own the tablet so now development... so stick with the stock...
AND GUYS FORGET THAT SAMMY WOULD RELEASE JELLY BEAN OFFICIALLY FOR NOTE 10.1 BEFORE NEXT YEAR....! im selling my note 10.1 to get nexus 10 when its available...
Again we see this happening dear Aami if you want to sell the tab you are most welcome to do so its your choice but can please show proof for your statement that the JB update wont be available until next year please dont speculate and turn away others.
I enjoy redemption

It is basicly a themed version of stock with some stuff added in. I enjoy it

[Q] Please suggest a stable and fluid ROM for a Dad!!

I want to root this Tab for my Dad 'cause he is tired of its sluggishness with all the samsung bloatware....so I want to install a stable ROM (preferably 4.4.4 or lollipop if its usable yet) which he can use as a daily driver. Since he works, I won't get much time with his Tab to experiment it to know for myself.
Can you please suggest 2-3 ROMs that I can try tonight?

Slim, Dhollmen or Markos CM11......Only try 4.4.4 Roms (which those all are) They are all very stable. Follow OP directions and you;ll be good to go.
CM11 running 4.4.4 is your best bet, just plain android with no bloat, no bells, no whistles.

+1 for Slim, ran SlimKat for ages and now on SlimLP which rocks for Alpha.
Kernel?
I'm in a similar position as OP!
I need to install a ROM on my dad's P3100 as well, so I took your suggestions and plan to install Slimkat
Question is, What is the best suitable Kernel I should install with it?
Stock? or are there any custom kernels made for it?
Thanks in advance!
If you want Lollipop, I reccommend @Android-Andi's SLimLP. It is very stable (at least for me).
If stability is a factor for a user that doesn't want to troubleshoot the tablet every time they go to use it stay away from lollipop, these dinosaur tabs can't handle lollipop, kitkat is as good as it gets.

What do u think is the smoothest custom ROM for P3100?

Hello everyboy!
These past days I managed to put the CyanogenMod Rom based on Android 5, dont i dont really like the ways its moving...Its not that sharp.
Could u please recommend me another ROM which is a little more sharp? (I dont care if its Android 4 or 5)
Thank you!
I think it's stock rom 4.1.2.
well you can try the pac man rom.

ordered Samsung s7 Exynos version[SHALL I INSTALL CUSTOM ROM]

Hello,
I got a real good deal on the samsung s7 so i took it.
My question to you is, shall is stick to stock os or install a custom rom?
the reason i ask this is cause i was using a redmi note 4 and the custom firmware is kinda buggy, i need to reboot once a while. its running on 8.1.
it has LTE issues, Keyboard issues, apps crash randomly, slows down once a while.
Also, if i root it and install 8.1 on my samsung will the camera quality go down? i have heard this is true? can someone please correct me.
Honestly i want a stable experiance with a good camera, thats all.
Please advice.
Stable & Full camera quality, stick to stock
You need a TouchWiz ROM with stock camera app to get 100% camera quality
Custom ROMs are much more likely to be unstable than stock, but I haven't tried any

I've run a variety of Custom AOSP / AOKP Roms on my S7 - Nougat and Oreo 8.1 - After the latest Samsung Firmware update - I figured that I'd run Stock Rooted for a while - Stock is Definitely more stable than any of the AOSP /AOKP Custom Roms and the Camera is one thing that is constantly being complained about on AOSP / AOKP Roms.... That being said - If you like the idea of Running a Custom Rom & are prepared for some bugs - They can certainly be used as a Daily Driver ??

Hey thanks for the reply guys!
i thought maybe since the device is old someone might have ported a stock quality like camera.
its easy for me to say i guess! im sure its tough. well, i guess i'll install the pixel rootless launcher and keep using this beast! im not much of a heavy user its just whatsapp and instagram chats mostly.
though i'll miss android 8.1. but stability is worth it!
i was thinking how about i install a 8.1 rom+ google camera[ is it stable and better than stock now?]

Nope. If you want camera performance and overall stability, go with touchwiz. 8.1 aosp is in beta rn
Great, I shall wait for a while then
Thank you guys!

Discussion about ROM's

Hi everyone.
Many of us using thier S7's with custom ROM's.
I'm using SuperMan ROM's and I got used to it, but after OREO I think something is missing there.
Considering goin back to SuperMan 2.9.0, which was better than 3.0.1 is, but maybe there is another rom worth trying?
So I have a question to you XDA community.
Which custom rom is best in your opinion and why?
Thanks.
I'm running LineageOS on Oreo 8.1, used to run SuperMan but just got tired of Samsung's skin and wanted closer to stock.
I really like it, it's snappy and I don't have to run any Xposed modules to get it to behave the way I want it to.
