Miui rom for Note Edge

Since Xiaomi Mi Note Pro is out [same QHD resolution with our EDGE), i think there is a possibility to have a ported miui rom for us.
I am going to donate at least 20 euros to a developer for a fully working miui.
My last rom i used , is RRemix with MiHome launcher and it looked very smooth and nice.
What about your thoughts?Share your opinion here..

We'll have to wait till it's released for the Note 4 then hope some kind Edge developer ports it over for us.
TTHHEENN We could play around and try to implement TouchWiz features into MiUi!!! It's been done before, Note 2 and 3 and is possible cause MiUi uses TouchWiz framework somewhat.
Think about it :laugh: Edge Panels + MiUi, although I wished there was a way to hide all app shortcuts on the homescreen except those that ya choose to be visible so I'd add a app drawer or a nifty third party launcher like TSF Shell since it has a hidden dock...

Don't confuse the company No. 1 with the official Note 4 rom, it's a chinese cloned note.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/miui-7-samsung-note4almost-snapdragon-t3221861 This works since Note 4 rom's work on Edge, now for the bigger question...
Who's down for trying to port over our Edge panels, that'd make news I imagine if someone successfully did it, I bet!

The link above requires 4.4 modem and bootloader?

Havent had a miui rom since note 3. Besides, miui uses cyanogenmod as a base now, you will lose all note functionality. It was a great rom for notes before it changed to cyanogenmod.

I was wondering about z5....but so many people are compaling about that device. And I have had a z5 in my hand, and it took awfull photos (low light). I was breaking my s6's back panel, BUT I re purchased the s6 yesterday again. I have tried the 6.0 with it, and looks promising ( I love the manual camera shutter sped control).
come back. this is a cheap device already, ($300-350), and there is non better on the market what have this huge amount of features like s6 (with 6.0 )

Why would you go back to a device where your main issue is the OS? That's just wierd.
Get a Nexus if you want AOSP.
The CM13 you are referring to in your OP is a TEST build and should NOT be used as a daily driver. Bugs, things are broken / not working.
Sounds like you might wanna research some other phones / brands before jumping back to a device your not comfortable with IMO.

im asking what about new firmwares, have them fix major galaxy s6 issues like ram management?

Samsung will release the gs6' sourcecode after the marshmallow release. This will make the custom rom community much more effective. Looking forward
Edit @renolzSry: I meant kernel sourcecode

(DISCUSS) Note 8 ROM port to S8/S8+

Well I just wanted to see your opinions, whether is to possible or not, will it happen or not, to port Note 8 ROMs to our S8/S8+ Exynos.

Its the same touchwiz as s8 with extra features focused for the spen and dual camera which you wont need at all.... its not worth the shot....theme may apear soon which will be less hassle....
My 2c

Yes but as I heard, though it might be misinformation, Note 8 should have Samsung Experience 8.5 and maybe Android 7.1 very soon if not out of the box.
Not sure if this is true or I red it on some random portal.

It will be ported wether you like it or not.. it's always been the case. So move on.

LineageOS

Hello,
I wanted to see if anyone made LineageOS work on the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra SM-N986U1. I would consider it a nice replacement phone for the ZTE Axon 7 I have currently but I can't find anything so I am posting here. I currently have the DooGee S95 Pro that I am trying to get the LineageOS GSI of LineageOS 18.1 running but it won't boot.
Thanks!

Good question, wrong thread man

Oh sorry what place should I post it then?

Don't get this phone if you want custom ROMs. I couldn't get Lineage GSI to work but if you can then it's not going to be as good as Lineage built for the specific device.
OnePlus 9 Pro or even literally anything else would be a better choice.

Hello,
Hardware is better than the DooGee S95 Pro by a lot, I can get the GSI to load on the DooGee S95 Pro and wanted this phone because the bootloader is unlockable and we can then have custom rom. I like this phone because 5G, SD card slot, Note series with Stylus, wireless charging at 15w, NFC, and really nice screen. Any recommendation on a better phone then? I am running LineageOS on the ZTE Axon 7 and havent found anything better... sadly.

Apparently the OnePlus 9 Pro doesn't have an SD card slot, the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G has pretty much every great hardware feature I could want ( no mention of a notification LED but yea ) but no mention of good software like LineageOS on it... Q_Q

So nobody's going to port over LineageOS? Too bad.

get a xiaomi if you want custom roms man,.i had plenty on k20pro

I was working on it for a bit but i cant get 18.1 android 11 to boot. it goes straight to bastboot. ive spent hours on it but no luck. 17.1 i got going but ril is all borked, no wolte (which i guess is a samsung wide thing with LOS so i dont know if it is even fixable) no 5g and because lte doesnt work phone calls drop to 3g AND SMS only works on EDGE connections lol. then i got bored and have been playing with smart home crap but thats a story for another day lol. its sad but i think the custom rom scene is dying. its a shame really. all us developers made imprvements and then the big companies copied them and now no one except the REAL nerd hard core users feel the need to root or flash a custom rom on their phone. years ago it was almost a requirement to have a good experience on the device. hell los invented the notification quick tiles.. anyways i had 1 to many beers and went on a tandget there sorry, i'm going to bed now.
if anyone feels like it my WIP tests are on my github
github.com/Albinoman887
its a huge mess with many branches for each repo that are just tests or crap or dont even compile with non descriptive names for comits and stuff but there things that are worthy. (DUB3 kernel merge comes to mind)

I truly like LOS. If some developer could get a stable 18.1 version for the Exynos Variant, I would unlock my phone, and change the OS to LOS

Just found the thread by accident and moved it to the Q&A section. If you realise that you've posted in the wrong section just hit the report button to alert the moderators team.

Your friendly neighbourhood watch.

Hello,
What's required to make LineageOS actually work? What help is needed? I'm not an android developer but it would be nice to know what I can do to help.
Thanks
P.S. I also have experience installing GSIs on phones and in my experience the GSIs won't load on Android 11 if it's either the wrong partition type OR for the Android 9 device I have it wouldn't load 11 if the bootloader code had been modified with Magisks and I had to put the boot code back to stock and then it booted so it might be something like that.
Hope that's a little helpful. I know this thread is getting old though...

Samsung Galaxy A20* | OneUI 4 ?

Just checked the list of devices receiving the Android 12 update with OneUI 4 and our beloved Galaxy A20 is nowhere to be seen. Since the A20 already got 2 major updates the possibility of Samsung putting any effort to surprise users is very low.
Multiple security updates are yet to come but any OS updates is highly unlikely.
What are your thoughts? Which custom rom are you going to prefer if any?
Edit : OneUI 4.1 ROM is now available for A205X. OneUI 5.1 is in beta.

I noticed Eureka are releasing a lot of Android 12 ROMS lately. There's:
LighthouseOS
PixelPlusUI
crDroid
ProjectArcana
SuperiorOS
AospExtended
evolution
Arrow
I haven't installed any yet because I don't really want to move from OS 11 to 12 at this time.

I've been following Eureka Team on Telegram for quite some time now. Almost all the Android S ROMs are test builds. Some common features and settings are missing. Those who implemented the features are broken in many areas.
Android 12 has impressed me with it's performance so far. It's noticeably faster than any Android R ROMs I've used.
Fingers crossed, I have a lot of hope in Eureka.

What ROM are you running now? Is there one you would recommend?

I'm using the Stock ROM - June update. Basically removed the features considered useless, installed Eureka and called it a day. Tried hKtweaks but it just makes the phone unstable.
Project Sakura is what stayed on my phone for the longest time. UI might look less uniform at times but does the job.
Custom ROMs are a mere hobby for me. If A20 is your daily driver then I won't recommend using any custom rom at all. voLTE is broken in all all of them. But I still try every ROM that comes out.
-------------------------
Exceptions of voLTE bug are the modded OneUI ROMs, basically debloated stock ROMs which you could simply do by rooting, no need to waste data for just more broken features.
