[Q] best ROM and kernel - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just come from the Note 10.1 (2012) which was running on the Gnabo v8 ROM and the Boeffla kernel and was wondering what's the best ROM and kernel for the TabS?
Thanks.

Wrong section to post questions... But I would recommend CM12 if you like its ui and iron rom if you want stock based Rom.

Thread moved to correct section.
Why not try a few and see which suits your personal needs.

Exactly what I want to know which are the nicest roms for the T700? I'm currently running Iron rom on my T700 and CM12 Nightly on my Oneplus.. I'm not a fan of Touchwiz and would like something different from CM11/CM12. I want a nice smooth stable ROM. Grateful for any help as i'm a newbie to the Tab s.. cheers

[Q] How do I check if a Kernal is compatible with the ROM im using?

Hi, I have been searching the forum but there isnt a definite answer. So far I gather that not every kernal is compatible with every ROM.
I am running PACMAN V22.11 [link]
And want to try Franco.Kernel [link]
Franco's thread only mentions Android OS version. And nothing regarding roms (searhced that thread for pacman as well)
Is it compatible with PACMAN? Can I go ahead and flash my first kernal? (excited :fingers-crossed: )
Bonus | Whilst we are at it, I wouldnt mind anyone side mentioning proven kernals for battery improvement. Or best performance/battery kernals they have used
-Galaxy Nexus Gsm (maguro)
Bump
Guys, is franco kernal compatible with all roms based on android 4.2.2 for galaxy nexus?
Thats it. Please?

That's because usually only OS version, not ROM, matters for kernel compatibility.

Almost all Roms are good )
try
Android Revolution HD 18.0
Omega v17
Edit just tried HaWKiSHâ„¢EXTREME SERIE and i am loving it
NOTHING IS BEST
You cant ask what's best!
Its all about your need,
Every dev do their best to develop Mod/ROM
But you cant judge it in Rating or Something
Its best for you if it gives you what you really want
Like when i had an SII i needed to overclock + Dualboot my SII
Siyah kernel was best option for me, but if someone only needs over clocking or only dualbooting any other kernel can do his task that kernel would be best for him.. So please be specific about your Question/Request
Thanks

No DN3 v5 hasn't got any bootloop. It doesn't require S5 Mods Pack. It has already a lot of from S5. If you want a lot S5 app you should use this topic :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2690997
or use this pack :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2704873
I think you flashed DN3 v4's S5 Mod Pack and you get bootloops. Because this pack isn't compatible with DN3 v5.
And I am using Emotion Revolution 6.0
I can say it has very good features but its apks are very outdate. I can't understand ROM Makers why they don't update apks in ROM. For example Xposed's latest version 2.6.1 but in ROM version 2.6, App Setting's latest version is 1.9 but in ROM 1.7.1 etc. I think it is important.
Also there are a lot of extra bloatwares which is not stock app for example Android Music Player. I am using different music players and I don't want this in my ROM but unfortunately they included it.
And I have a bug. I switched on Private Mode in Settings but it doesn't switch off.

yep,you are correct ,i flashed s5 mods v1.5 with DN3 v5 and got bootloops...actually i quite liked some s5 features..so my fault here
regarding the apks being outdated...i think we can make them user apps in titanuim backup application so to update them...or else completely remove from system/apps and install as normal apk..so updating them would be just as easy as normal apps
and how did you turned on private mode...this rom is deknoxed and private mode need knox components to work
dear @admin
#1... is this thread should appropriate to be in android development section?
#2.. is it appropriate as well to ask which is the best rom?

[Q] ROM / KERNEL needed SM-T900 (12.2 wifi)

Hello guys,
sorry to say but this forum is a bit messed up...
i ve spend a long time here searching something working for the SM-T900.
But either the threadtitles are wrong -stating they are for for the 12.2 TabPro and they are not- or wifi isnt working...
well can maybe someone who has a good kernel or rom flashed on the 12.2 SM-T900 give me an advice please?
It is realy horrible to see such a good and huge tablet being so damn slow with stock kernel / rom!
btw im a huge and yearlong fan of slimrom - if u are a slimrom dev i beg u to have a look at the SM-T900 =]
thanks guys

cm-11 v.4 from chhaggerty is most likely the most complete and comprehensive T-900 ROM,
but there is also a TW alternative with bonuzzz's P-900 CustomROM 1.0.1 (yes, it's fully compatible with T-900). If you want you can add on an OC-kernel; either bonuzzz's Custom Pro kernel 1.3, or civatos' CivZ-P900 Kernel v.3.0 (once again, they are compatible w. T-900).

thx man! or should i call you captain harlock? =)
much appreciated!

[Q] What rom do you guys want? I'll build it.

I want everyone to tell me a rom they favor, that's not here already, or that was stopped on development a few versions back. Which ever rom (or maybe couple of roms) I see most, I will build. Check my signature for the ROMs I've done on the S5.
How about CyanogenMod ?
lollipop 5.1 for samsung galaxy tab 3 7.0 wifi
Build it and I will come! Test it! sent from KitKat 4.4.2

Pleaaase any lollipop rom on sm-t210 pleasssse
And if you want there is this rom on tab 2 7in you can port it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/7-inch-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-cm12-t2997934
Please build it ... i'm ready to test it if you want
Any lollipop rom really!!
But my favorite is validus rom
I'd like a slimmed down rom for the p5210 that supports Chromecast so that I can continue to use this as my entertainment hub at home. Right now I am running stock KK. I have removed some unnecessary apps and installed a lot of good stuff but the limited ram here really makes this tab sluggish at times. Even if you could port the slim rom for the p5200 to this device I'd be ecstatic. S.O.S.
Maybe?
An updated version of PAC ROM for the SM-210/R would be super awesome! :laugh:
Any updated rom for sm-t113, i will help test .. currently there is no recovery nor any custom rom for this new tab 3. None at all.... thanks in advance!
Cheers!
I REALLY want a stock lollipop 5.1 ROM for SM-T210R! There is a Galaxy Tab 3 Lite lollipop ROM that you might be able to port over or build from...
Low ram use with long battery life that dual boots kitkat and this
I would love to have a 4.4.2 KK rom on SM-T110 ported from T210, that would be awesome, i don't know why samsung won't do Official KK for Lite T110. I can be a tester ofcourse

Yeah, I wish someone can continue development on the existing CM 11 ROM. But that will be hard to do, especially when the proprietary drivers are hard to reach. Or, what is there I can do to help speed up this ROM's development?
CM finally for T211
pls
A clean fast 4.4.2 ROM. That will support Kodi, so it can be used as a media center (addon).
Now lets just hope it's for the SM-T210 model.
Hmmm kodi does sound awesome
If you want to do the Galaxy Tab 3 community a favour, you could build a pure, AOSP ROM for the Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 (SM-T210/R). There practically are none, the one's I could find run some deodoxed and/or debloated form of the stock Touchwiz for 4.1.2 or 4.4.2. A Cyanogmod would be nice, 10,11, or even 12 and 12.1 be amazing!! And I would be more than willing to test the ROM on my SM-T210R.
A gaming rom with internet streaming via kodi that can also boot into kitkat might be a good idea to make for gamers it should use less than 50 mb of RAM to be MLG ... unless jellybean has reasons to be existent... im pretty sure everybody likes kitkat better
Yeah current minimal requirements for Kodi Android (current/latest version) is 4.4.2 so anything above will do.
For the love of god, PLEASE, someone build ANYTHING for t110 beyond 4.2.....how the hell is this tab stuck on jb???? I'm so confused!!!! I've never seen a device get the red headed step child treatment so bad in my entire life!
Bonus points for AOSP, or even ANYTHING not touchwiz.....hell, I'd rather see iOS running on this thing!
Seal 4 was a good rom but would like to see if lollipop can run on this tab 3 t210r. Will test.
