Why Not Many Custom Roms??? - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just Wondering, why there is not many custom roms for this phone (stock roms???) I know there is knox etc, but would love to see more custom roms

It ain't easy to create custom roms for this phone and it isn't that popular.
Sent from my GT-I9195

There's decent amount of ROM choice:
CM: 10.2 / 11
SlimROM: both JB and KK
Carbonrom: both JB and KK
And there's MIUI, Avatar and Pacman... What were you looking for?

It would be awesome if somebody port multiwindow for our i9195

LOL, for me, that was small enough on the S3, on the Mini it will probably not practical enough. I think Multiwindow is only good on the original intend devices: Notes!

roms
i see in a post a guy was preparing a list of some roms and their specs

What is the best rom for my note 2

Helo, can someone tell my what is the best rom for the Samsung galaxy note 2?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
i think you need to stipulate what you are looking for from your rom / phone.
stock look (how samsung want it to look and behave) , android look ( how google made it to look and behave),
3rd party interface made by someone here.
stability or cutting edge/new tweaks that may have bugs but be the newest of the new...
That mainly comes to down to your preferences. If you want the stock look and want to preserve s-pen functionalities and Samsung features, then I'd recommend Android revolution HD.

The best ROM for you is the one that ticks all your boxes and serves your needs, so get flashing and find out.
I'm also interested in a ROM that emulates the google feel, any tips?

Hi, I am following the forum since i first bought my first android device the Note 2(n7100) on the day of its launch, i was earlier afraid of rooting with the risks involved.
But i have just rooted the phone yesterday, and flashed with ROOTBOX rom with seperate GAPPS installation.
though i am in absolute awe of the stock JB ROM, but still feel need for SPen apps, also i do feel that the camera quality has gone down, with images coming a lot more grainy even indoors in proper lighting.
I am also looking for a ROM with 4.2.1 JB but dont want to compromise on Camera Quality, i have read that there are few apps which help in SPen compatibility etc.
.
Did you try the roms suggested by experts, wht are your thoughts about them.
Anyways, sorry for the long post, its my first one, so all the excitement and amazement of flashing is keeping my typing.

omega rom rocks
I'm also searching for the best ROM. I'm using omega currently but somehow it is battery drain for me, it's battery life can't even last for one day with 3g and heavily use in camera, facebook and whatsapp. I was using another called Mr. Luong. This rom is able to provide a good battery life which can last for more than one day. The problem I change is because the laggy problem and unstable under multi windows. Anyway, I'm still expecting omega can release a better version, v12. I'm still waiting for it
Wanam2.8 for simplicity and closest to Samsung.
Phoenix6.5 for beauty.

I'm looking for a ROM that has s-pen and multi-screen features, but at the same time, improves performance and can be overclocked/underclocked. Thanks guys
Here you go.

Uv and oc are kernel related.
All the roms that say dll7 or dma3 or dma5 or dma6 dmb4 etc all support s pen and features
Also look into the description.
Anything that says based on samsung firmware has all s pen features.

Looking for the coolest rom to 7105

What do you recommend rom with additions music for n7105 LTE? Preferably one who uploads the through CWM or TWRP. such that it does not bootloop. I'm sorry if this is not the forum but it relates to the 7105 rom. I mean rom based on 4.1.2 I'm currently using WanamLite but is too poor
imo, most of the 4.2.2 ROM are pretty cool. i guess it's all depends on which one you like. flashing rom is part and parcel is it not?
i'm using carbon t0lte 1.7 release and loving it (personally).
Can somebody post the noob video?

There are only 3 other custom 4.1.2 stock roms. Moon rom, hashecks and deadman 12. They all have lots of cool features. Deadmans has the acid audio mod but hascheck and moonrom have ui switcher giving you tablet phamphlet or phone mode. Most custom kernels have audio mods so recommend changing your kernel too.

This should have gone in Q & A section.
I personally am using wanamlite and have no problems with it. Its a close to stock rom. What you need to be doing is looking and reading through the individual roms that are posted and it will tell you whats added into them or compatible mods tweaks. All the best in your search for a tidy rom.

There is a spen app you can download for 4.2.2 and there are plenty of good camera apps in the app store if that helps

mine is a Singapore version of Note2 LTE and I'm using it in Australia. in my understanding, yes. t0lte rom is compatible to international N7105 (note2 lte)

Till now there's no rom with full s4 features.But S4 themes/launchers are worth trying..S4 theme by Utkarsh gupta and one by winterlove are excellent.Except few of them,all features are available on our note2 by means of custom rom..addtional features of S4 are from extra IR sensor which is missing in note2.

Question about porting Note 3 ROMs to note 2

Alright guys , hello there. Recently we saw the release of KitKat ROM for note 3 on Sammobile (I guess its for Poland only right now), so a question came into my mind. Can we port note 3 Roms to work on Note 2? That will be great because then we can get touchWhiz working on note 2 with android 4.4.2. Any ideas if this is possible ?

Thank you for the reply , appreciated . but I am trying to figure put if its possible to get 4.4.2 KitKat on Note 2 with touchwhiz. Which I though would be possible by porting Note 3 KitKat ROM to note 2 ( because I don't think Samsung will launch KitKat for note 2)

Flashing other device's rom(s) could damage Ur phone, you can wait a bit and many of the Touchwiz roms will upgrade to 4.4.2 very soon.

Relax bro,We are sure to recieve that KitKat taste wrapped by the Samsung UI,but in late April(if Sammy doesnt delay )
And ya the 3 custom roms posted are awesome,but whether they claim a good battery life and stability(daily use),
they are in comparision to othr custom roms..So,experience is that most ppl land up flashing StockRom at end..so better stick to Stock!& enjoy just a rooted phone,Titanium Backup,Rom Toolbox,Xposed,Greenify,LMTetc..
DO CHECK THIS,TECHILICIOUS FOR TECH-ppl to enjoy:-

Samsung have already said the note 2 will get android version 5 so we will get kit kat plus another update after that. AFAIK to port the 4.4.2 twizz rom we would need a 4.4.2 stock kernel for our device so until the 4.4.2 Samsung source code is released it can't be ported. But I stand to be corrected by more experienced devs

Im using DN3 and its buttery smooth + amazing battery life, please note that I have 3G open 24/7, may not be the best battery life, but it really satisfied me (12 hours with 6 hours on screen and still have 15% charge)
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk
Yes it's possible but:
1) It will need a kernel that can boot 4.4.2 TW on our device.
2) Tons of changes in framework.
Possibly no one would attempt that.
I'm certain to a lot extent that we will get Sammy Kitkat (official or leaked ) soon
Thanks for the reply guys,after reading your posts I will wait for the official Note 2 KitKat ROM.

It would be great to have a CM-Rom for the Neo.

I agree with you.
Any samsung phone can have 2 kind of Custom ROM.
1. CM based which I do not like. I suggest to buy Nexus if any one like CM rather than buying something and installing something.
2. Samsung Based. The stock software is just perfect. I do not see any custom ROM needed at this moment. Most of the custom ROMs are taken features of Note 3 or S5. If you have a look to other forum of S3 & Not3 you can pull those apps and most of them should work.
What was needed is root the phone, delete unwanted apps, and a good recovery....Which all I got it for my Note 3 Neo SM-750:good:
Now if this is been updated to Kitkat should be good, else no worries. The GUI would be same for all.
What I am looking for now a extended battery.....The stock battery really good however having extended battery is good when you are in vacation.

It's not so simple,for first you need to create a device tree,and prometeus doesn't have it because is stock based.
Sometimes samsung release the sourcecode for compile aosp on his opensource center,try to compile it,or try to modify the device tree with cm modification and compile it.
And fix all the bugs.
