Hi there. Thanks in advance for the replies. Looking forward to reading it. ?
I've a note lte 10.1 2014 (sm-p605) that I would like to use daily. Current setup at 4.3 with stock rom with deknoxed, su, twrm and xposed.
I would like to use it for or with :
Multiple logins for different accounts or users
(I installed switchme but it doesn't work. I think it needs aokp as stock rom, with de-knoxed, doesn't work)
Stock Samsung apps
(if not, any idea where can I get these?
Hopefully an updated and stable kernel to recommend
(is it recommended to get 4.4?)
Recommend an updated rom which is stable too
I hope it's not too much to ask as I'm asking based on recommendation and work around. I do apologize if this topic has been highlighted previously as I'm not aware of any. Thank you again. Cheers ?

Hi everyone!
Please be gentle as this is new for me for a phone, not new here on xda just spent time on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 forums, just new to the T mobile SG2. I just picked this excellent phone yesterday and have already rooted it. I have the tab 10.1 running task's ROM with perhoot's kernel and flashing ROM etc is pretty straight forward since it isn't with a carrier, just WiFi. I currently have Android 2.3.6 and want to flash a ROM, I am back and forth between Bombaridier V.3.5 and CyanogenMod 7 Self-Kang #2 Alphafied 2.3.7 or any other one that someone would recommend?
Since I have never owned an Android phone only the tab 10.1 I have some question and I did search but am still confused and dont want to screw up.
1. If I am on 2.3.6 can I flash one that says 2.3.7?
2. I am on t mobile, so the one I flash needs to be in the Android development on the T Mobile forum located here?
3 any other thing I need to do so I don't lose the base band of the phone (i guess that is what they call it) as my wife has an iPhone and I keep seeing instructions for preserving base band?
3. Anything I missed that I need to know about?
All I really really appreciate the help and guidance just want to get on a custom ROM as I love it on my tab 10.1, thanks again everyone!!!

Welcome!
1. You can flash from 2.3.6 to 2.3.7 no problem.
2. Any ROM that is in this specific subforum will work. Do NOT flash anything for any other Galaxy S II, it may brick your phone.
3. Basebands are not included in roms, so you will not lose it, unless you flash a new modem.
Just remember to always perform a full wipe, I recommend the Darkside Super Wipe. You can backup your apps with Titanium Backup.
Hope this helps!

Thanks, just flashed with success. Appreciate the help.

Look into TDJ's superwipe in the rom section. I do that between flashes since it keeps things clean.
An example is that before it came out, i had 1.8 gigs used on my rom partition, and after using it and installing all the same apps with data(restoring with titanium) and having the phone rebuilt to the same state with another samsung based rom, it was only 1.1 used. Lots of junk gets left behind here and there.
You can also flash AT&T Skyrocket ROMs, Kernels, Radio Modems, Recoveries, and Odin's.
Hey folks,
my Nexus 7 just arrived and I am wondering what the first steps should look like.
I am not completely unfamiliar with Android, as I owned a Samsung Galaxy a few years ago, but since then I didn't really have had any more contact with it.
What I'd like is to install a nice custom rom, which is simple yet good looking and has a good battery runtime, etc.
As far as I know the Google stock Android is rather smooth so it could also be a modified original rom. I'm not sure about de-odex vs. odexed. What would be preferable?
Can you suggest the best ROM for that purposes? Ideally it should have a readme on how to install
Also do I need to unlock bootloaders or root the phone in advance or does the custom rom does all that for me?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
daZza

WiFi, 2013 Version.
To start with I just installed the Google USB Drivers and that Android SDK ADT Package thingy (all-in-one with Eclipse, etc.). Hope that's right xD
Edit: wugfreshs' tool seems to be the way to go. However, I am still unclear on whether or not to update my N7 with the newest update? I just got a message that there are updates available...
Edit2: Well, seems easy enough to use. Driver Test was successful, so I'll just go ahead and unlock/root it. Would appreciate ROM suggestions though
If you don't want me be messing with it I'd say stock rooted is the way to go.
Odex files help apps load faster I believe, and Roms are de-odexed to allow customizations such as icons and theming.
I really recommend sticking with a stock rooted ROM. Android is so polished theses days I don't see the need to mess with a good thing.

It's basically Stock but with minor improvements (pre-rooted, init.d support, slimmed down etc.)
Well if I was you the first thing I would do is update my stock rom then the next thing I would do is root the tablet with the Nexus root toolkit toolkit provided by WuGFresh.
Use the root toolkit to install the USB drivers then to unlock the bootloader there to root your Nexus 7 tablet
After your tablet is rooted load up the Google Play Store and download the app multi rom manager this app will allow you to to install Multi rom which will allow you to install multiple roms on your Nexus 7 tablet and it will also install TWRP recovery manager for you as well.
When you have multirom installed you can add a second third or fourth rom without ever touching or harming your stock ROM. As for a custom ROM I just flashed CyanogenMod 11 on my Nexus 7 2013 model Flo WiFi only tablet. Just download the latest nightly to get Android 4.4.1 or you can go with 10.2 for a "stable" ROM but the nightly is working great.
When you flash CyanogenMod don't forget to flash Google apps the GApps zip file.
As for adding ROMs with multirom you can do a YouTube search for the exact steps...bit it is quite easy. CyanogenMod or CM rather is the Cadillac of Android Roms and looks/runs great.
As for others I would probably recommend AOKP I have heard good things about it...
Many people like Paranoid Android. I tried it but did not care for it. I did not care for the rom not being rooted, but that is just my opinion.
You can't go wrong with CyanogenMod ROM.
Hope it helps and congrats on getting your N7.

Hey member, wanna' flash CyanogenMod on the phone, which is on stock 4.1.2. rooted with CWM recov'
There is lot's(and lots) of info' here on this already, though can't find the links as yet..
If any member/s could leave the links need for CyanogenMod download, and all other links, looks like i need to flash google apps too.. Or perhaps any other recommendations for good custom ROMS?
Also, is the 2 sim function working now on the ROM? Ideally it would be good to be back on .41.2 rather than kit kat,. Unless you think kit kat is better than 4.1.2 now?
Thanks for any help.

Upgrade to 4.2.2 first

S3Rx S5 Experience Rom for T999
I had a question...I tried to post this in the actual rom section, but since I have too less of posts, it wouldn't let me....so it shown up here...My question is that it says once you flash this rom, you should flash "T-Mo Addon.zip" that is included in the same section you download the rom from, if you use T-Mobile. Well, I do have a T-Mobile T999L phone, but I am currently on Walmarts Family Mobile service. I do believe that they use T-Mobiles towers for cell service, but the service itself doesn't go through T-Mobile. Should I flash the T-Mobile Addon zip or not? I haven't yet, and it seems the rom is working just fine, but wondering what the difference is if I do flash that add-on? Will it help any service speeds or anything? Just curious what the add-on really does....
It replaces certain files that differentiate between different devices. It may also contain some network specific differences too, but I can't recall at the moment. It's perfectly safe to flash it though. If you feel it worked better before, just reflash the rom, no wipe needed.
The one I'm about to release has everything already incorporated, so there won't be a need for the second zip.
If you are using the LG keyboard, it may stop working. If so, it's easy enough to fix, so just let me know.

After I restored data from another ROM(4.3 touchwiz) , I lost some toggles like flashlight, and clor is dark blue in the toggles background, is there any way to get it bac to normal without reflashing
Thanks!!
Thanks Doc! I will give it a try and see if it improves anything or if it makes things worse....lol.
Themes for Likewise Rom
Ok this may seem like a stupid question, but I can't seem to figure it out and I have been racking my brain for a while now...so I'm just going to ask...I noticed in the installed apps for this rom (and I have the most recent S5Experience rom installed) there are themes included like Color OS, FunTouch OS, etc. But I cannot seem to find how to apply these themes. Saw some links for "theme chooser" but cannot seem to get it working. I saw the apk in the system apps, and it says it is already installed, but I cannot find it to use it to change themes and check out what these themes look like that are included in this rom. Can someone help me with this? What app do I use to try out these themes? Where is the app located? Like I said, this may seem like a stupid question, but I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks in advance for helping me.
Wifi calling enabled?

All ports and AOSP ROMs do not have Wi-Fi Calling. You'd have to stick to T-mobile produced ROMs, the latest based on Android 4.3.
Figured it out on my own...
I never got a response back to the question I asked days and days ago....but nevermind, I figured it out. Thanks anyways...
Likewise s5 and Softcard...
Okay, so I am new to the forum, though I am a long time browser. I recently took the plunge and rooted my s3 and have been playing with some custom roms. I found this one, after using stockmod rom, and liquid smooth (Both really nice ROMS). I like this one the best so far. with that said, I also use Softcard (Tmobile won't allow tap and pay with google wallet). I got it to work using root cloak on the stockMod rom and just stock when rooted, but on this one, I can get it to recognize my device as not rooted, but it no longer recognizes my enhanced sim. it says i need one, but I already have one. I'm curious if it's a rom issue or something. Not sure what to do.
Also, is there a way to enable infinite scrolling on the home screen? I can get it to do it if I use go launcher or something, and looking elsewhere on the site it said to go into the system files (Im abbreviating the steps here) and find "screen rotation>disable> true " and set it to false... but mine is already set to false and I have Wanam exposed framework running with infinite scroll enabled....
Overall, Great ROM so far. my battery life is improved, and the phone is much smoother and faster. I love my S3 again.
Can anybody check to see if palm gesture screenshot works?
Is there a way to set the grid size of the home screens? ie: using 4x4 instead of 5x4

Yes, before flashing wipe /data, /system, /cache and Dalvik Cache. Same with every other ROM.

Love this rom
hello guys, need help.
I have tmo note 2 and need advise on the best available ROM. I spent some time searching but couldn't make up my mind
Requirements are latest android (4.3 or higher) stable, fast, all working including wifi calling, mhl tv out , gps , wifi etc
any advise would be appreciated!!
forgot to add, need s pen working as well
S.W.A.R.M Rom is probably the latest T-Mobile Custom Rom. Im not sure if the Downloads are still available.
But...if you dont really need WiFi calling then you can try the Rom I released... its called Test Rom 1.2 nothing to fancy but its stable Test Rom 1.2 Link
Or you can flash DN3 found in the AT&T Development Thread.. or DN4 in the N7105 Development Thread (not to be confused with the N7100)
I'm using alliance rom,it's stable and it does have a lot of user options, i have tmo t889 and it's running really nice. Here is the link. Good luck.
