Welcome to the forums
Just a heads up this post belongs in the Q&A forums, it will be moved by a mod but for next time you know
AOSP roms use stock google android, that includes theme and all. these roms are in "original development"
Touchwiz roms (stock samsung) are found in "android development"
Let me suggest s3rx in the android development section to you since you are looking for the stock samsung look

I have installed Googl Play Edition 4.3 on my S4.
As a result, I have lost all of those cool Samsung features that rely on built in sensors
Is tgere any way to get those sensors working with Google play edition?
I mean things like turning pages by hand in the air above the phone, and scrolling ul and down by tilting the phone.
Thanks.
Is tbere a way to go back to Samsung stock rom? I did not back it up.

No TW features on 4.3. I think there was a minimal amount things on 4.2.2, but nothing really like the actual TW experience. If you want to go back stock, you have two choices: either Odin back to 100% stock and re-root... which is the boring way. OR you can d/l a modified/stock ROM and flash that with whatever custom recovery you have. Check the development sections; there are quite a few stock choices, and which one to pick just depends on whether you want it themed, bone stock looking, etc.
Thanks so much.
Do you have any recomedarions on modified stock Rom?
I am mostly concerned about a good battery life and speed of the device and getting back TW features.
By tbe way, do all midified stock Roms have TW features in them?
What are yiur recomedarions based on what I am looking for?
Thanks a lot

All modified stock ROMs have the TW features.
I've personally been using BobcatROM from the i9505 development section, but from what I could tell, the only differences between the modified stock are themes and small differences here and there. Just check a few out, if some of the tweaks or changes interest you, try it out.

Could you please point me to the right section to get modified original roms?
Is it in T-Mobile S4 Android Development section or t the T-Mobile S4 Android Original Android Development section?
I am not sure whether the original implies modified original rom section?
Would you also please include a link to where I can find your bobcat rom?
Thank you so much!

I gotta let you do SOME of the legwork But seriously, the mod/stock ROMs will be in Android Development and you can find kernels in the Original Development section. Considering you flash a T-Mobile kernel directly after flashing a ROM, you can use ROMs from any S4 development section including the "original development" section; be it AT&T, Sprint, etc. The only restriction is make sure not to flash a ROM from the i9500 section. The 9500 (Exynos octa-core) and 9505 (Snapdragon like the m919 and others) is the "international version" and share a forum; just different subsections dedicated to each one individually. The i9505 section is safe, which is where Bobcat is located. It's pounded into the ground, but it's worth mentioning again; if you rely on WiFi calling, you will want a T-Mobile TouchWiz ROM. If you're like me though and care nothing about WiFi calling then there's no reason to stick with only the T-Mobile ROMs unless you just prefer them.

ROMs do come with kernels, and that's why if you flash an S4 ROM from outside the T-Mobile section you need to flash a T-Mobile kernel. The T-Mobile ROMs obviously already have T-Mobile kernels. If you flash a ROM from the AT&T section, your device will be using an AT&T kernel and will not boot. But if you flash the AT&T ROM and flash a T-Mobile kernel directly afterwards, your device will then have the T-Mobile kernel and will run that AT&T ROM just like it was built for your device. The only way to retain your TouchWiz features is to use any ROM based on stock. If you want AOKP, CM, AOSP, etc you will lose all of the TW features. I think WatchON works on some (most?) non-TW ROMs now; but as far as things like Air Move, Smart Pause/Stay, the TouchWiz camera, and the other gimmicky features... they don't work outside of TouchWiz. Read up. Go to the dev sections and read, at the very least, the first post for the ROMs. That first post will almost always give you an idea of what features the ROM includes, screenshots of what it looks like, what's not working that is supposed to, and if it's TouchWiz based or CM/AOSP based.
And throw lordcheeto a thanks or two lets him know you appreciate his leg work and explanation.
Thanks so much for all this info!
Really appreciate it.
Hi everybody!
I changed my HTC Raider on custom ROM for a Galaxy s3. The original rom on Galaxy s3 has a lot of features like smart stay. But now I'm looking to install a custom ROM but I don't want to lose the stock nice features by installing a custom ROM. Can you tell me if I will lose these features on most custom ROM or not?
Second, does ROM 4.4 Kitkat ROM have those features?
Thanks guys!
Users need to take the time to read the roms and products in the development sections to see what features are available, reading and research is expected of users to make these determinations.
As XDA is not a support site, and as this thread could easily become a "best" rom thread, it is being closed.
Hello all,
I am looking for a custom ROM for my AT&T sgh-i747 that most emulates Samsung's 4.3 Stock ROM. I am looking for all the features and functions that the stock rom has with all the rooted goodness.
Does such a thing exist?
Thanks in advance for your help

I recommend the deodexed version to be able to mod it easily.
This should be in the Q&A section
These type of threads get closed as they become discussions/arguments over which rom is best.
The question you pose is only one you can answer by testing, reading, and interacting with those members in the development threads.
As XDA is not a support site, members are expected to do their own research and experimentation in these matters.
Please head over to the development sections and enjoy,

This should be in the Q&A section. Please report your own thread and let the moderators know.
Second, this is the article which explains how to get it. It's very straight to the point and with a little knowledge easily understandable from the pictures alone:

You are misunderstanding what stock means
Stock ROM = the ROM made by the phone manufacturer, complete with all their customisations and skins. We have a stock LG lollipop here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/updatenew-firmware-d85520dkdzpoland-t2960848
What you want is an AOSP-based ROM like cyanogenmod, which will look as close as possible to Google's untouched Android releases. We have a CM Lollipop release here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-t2945191
In future post your questions in the Q&A forum where they belong

Ok guys thank you all.It is CM12 but i didnt know it means Cyanogenmod 12.So i couldnt find anything.
Delete thread pls.Sorry for inconvenience.
