Hi All,
My Galaxy Fame GT-S6812 is responding very slow even with minimum apps installed. It takes lot of time to load basic apps like Messaging, Contacts.
The android version is 4.1.2, i think is slowing down the device along with the touch wiz UI.
Please let me know is there any way I can get rid of all samsung default utilities like touch wiz ui etc.
Kindly let me know the steps in detail as I am new to rooting devices and installing custom ROM.
Thanks in Advance
This phone have a NICE Hardware but the TouchWiz sucks the phone... that's it... about custom rom's there is two roms (TECNO ROM and UltraDroidRom) but when i install my sim won't work...

Hey guys, i am finally back on XDA developers, it has been 3 years as i upgraded to an Iphone but have returned to try out android again in the hopes it is no longer a piece of crap os like it was a few years ago and so far i am linking!.
I just bought the Galaxy note 2 and want to root it.
More specifically when i had my HTC Touch Pro with windows mobile 6, i downloaded Roms with lots of apps pre loaded such as wifi tethering, games tweaks and feature re-enabling.
Now i have a Note 2, i want a ROM with the most tweaks and software installed on it, i do not care for the UI as i can learn however i liked the windowed UI of one of the roms on here which is more like a desktop computer.
So please could you recommend me a Rom with lots of extras and explain how i would root the phone as i have a very vague idea and would want confirmation.
As far as i know, you download the rom, save it to a SD card, then reboot the phone in recovery mode and this is where i get stuck as to what i would do next.
Also, if in the future i want to return to the stock rom, how would i go about doing this?
I live in the uk and have a unlocked GT-N7100 so none of this sprint, verizon , at&t ,T-mobile crap your guys suffer with in America.
Do search for note 2 toolkit.. Root and install cwm or twrp recovery mods through it..
Press power volume up and menu together to boot to cwm and then install your rom .. U can also use cwm to backup your stock rom...
I recommend omega rom myself along with perseus kernel..
Hope it helps and please read the forum.. It hasTONS of info about the same question...
Cheers

theres lots of great CusROM... for example:
1. you can try ARHD for the most TouchWiz look-aliked
2. Omega cause theres lots of user who supports this ROM
3. Phoneix for the lots of tweaks and mods on the package
4. And many others things...
For me, its Alliance.. may differ for every user... you need to try it on your own.. :good:
For rooting and rom installation I wrecommend to read dr.ketan's excellent thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801134.
Omega is a touch wizard based rom, so you do not lose the S-pen functionality, and it has lots of customizable functions, mods. I also suggest to install simplistic framework, with further modding capabilities.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (from Rogers) (SGH-I317M) on 4.1.2. It's a stock ROM.
Rooted with SuperSU.
I am looking to change a few things. I would like my status bar to be transparent, I would like the home button to not turn on the screen. I have seen those done but I am not sure where to begin and if they work on my version of the Note 2.
I don't want to use a custom ROM. I like how my phone is now, just those few things. Help?

Stock ROMS are more difficult to theme because they are odexed. If you want to theme things like the notification bar, you should consider flashing a ROM that is de-odexed. Most modified and costom ROMs are de-odexed. There are a lot of ROMs out there and it took me a long time to learn to navigate through them all. For a good beginner ROM I would suggest trying Skynote or Jedi X15. These ROMs were build by recognized developers and have a high level of maturity. If you want performance, Jedi X15 is hard to beat. Skynote is very smooth and stable and has less bells and whissles (which sometimes confuse those new to the modified ROM world. Both of these ROMs are considered "modified" because they are based of the stock ROM. Later, you may want to venture into the "custom ROM" arena. Custom ROMs come with much more in regards to features, battery life, and performance. However, navigating the custom choices can be a little bit of a challenge for someone new to the market, but the custom ROMs offer so much more than the modified ROMs.
ok, so im not new to android mods, rom flashing, kernel flashing or any of that jazz...
ive had many android devices over the years and will continue to have more as long as android doesnt flop.. but i doubt that happening
my issue is this, i have a bone stock TW rooted i317m on 4.1.2, it has been unlocked using the perso sha method, and has been modified to work with wind mobile in ontario via the .qcn file flash method... the device is operating just fine, no problems...
what i want from this device is customization and the question im asking hopefully will be answered with respect and NO newb bashing or ignorance
this is my first note based device... i fell in love with all the TW features that relate to the s-pen and best photo/best face.. i want to install custom rom, and kernel, but im afraid im going to lose all the feature that i bought the note for...
i know about the apps "CM S-Pen detection add-on" & "S-Pen Helper"
but i dont want to lose most importantly the camera features, and id like to still be able to use s-note and such, but im not sure if this is possible unless using a TW stock rom
any ideas??
there are tw based roms like clean rom, best international (using this one)
if you flash a aosp rom all the tw stuff is gone!
I personally dont use half the tw stuff so i might flash an aosp rom soon just for fun. But I have a galaxy nexus to play around with as well
ok so i flashed clean rom,
now my next question
is there a sphere mode camera mod available,
i really miss this from my galaxy nexus when it was running PA3+, i busted the lcd and glass,
got my note 2 now, and would love to see this come to it

Clean rom is real good if you just want a debloated version of stock. Real fast and stable. It was my daily driver for a while.
I am really into all the customization so I am running JEDI and NOVELLA now. Both are TW based and have a ton of MODs out for it.
As for the camera 4.2 is good too
i was wondering why did OTA on my Alliance ROM not working ? i wanna add something like new booting animation. also the ROM Customizer it wont uninstall things like "ChatOn,Google+ and other unnecessary things that running on background eating up my RAM.
Well, im trying to make my phone last longer than it is any suggestion ? thx for reading
Hey guys , i`m new here, i was wondering if you could help me with my galaxy note 2 shv-e250l.
I got tired of samsung 4.4.2 kikat touchwiz and also my phone started getting laggy.
I would be very greatfull if you could help with step by step tutorials, i have never installed a custom rom, or a custom recovery, i`ve had a galaxy xcover1 before my note2, so i couldn`t really try any custom roms on my xcover.
I noticed that there`s a marhsmallow rom (android 6.0) and i would like to know if i can install it, or if i could install a cyanogen mod.
Also i`d love to hear what custom roms you use on your note2 phones and what are your thoughts regarding the experience you had with them.
Thank you, and have a good day.
