I think we can all agree that Samsung's build of Android is.. well.. ****. So much crapware and stuff you don't need. Is there any way to get a pixel like experience on this tablet? Roms, mods, Xposed modules etc? All I want is a stock Android tablet with s pen so I can draw!

I'm waiting for a cool custom ROM for my Tab S4 as well. The most annoying thing for me is that Sasmung doesn't roll out monthly updates for this device.
There are some modified stock ROMS for the Tab S4 available at XDA. You can find them easily by using the search function.
I still use an original Sasmung stock ROM but I debloated it using ADB over USB. I googled for "debloat samsung galaxy" and found some information on how to debloat a Galaxy S8 using an USB cable and the adb software. But the procedure is technically the same for (all?) Samsung devices.
I used AppInspector to determine the apps that I want to debloat and wrote a little linux bash script that I used to debloat my Tab S4 and my Note 9.
If you don't like the Samsung Experience launcher you can install another one.

I've almost got everything perfect on my new Note 10.1 but I wanted to use the AOSP lockscreen instead of the stock one. Mainly because Xposed modules modify AOSP instead of Sammy's lockscreen. Anyone know how to do that on this device. I'm using clean ROM and I'm not exactly expecting a lot of development for this device so waiting for a ROM that does this out of the box just wasn't something I'd want to do. I'm OK with modifying files myself since that's probably what I'd have to do. I'm just not sure where to start.

Have you tried this xposed module? It's for the note but you can test if you want:

Hey, i just purchased the Galaxy Tab Pro T325, after looking into Flashing Custom Rom i came to find out there isn't any out, needles to say this is a GREAT device and would have thought to see several cooked up by know, what would be Awesome in my opinion would be a Custom Rom made from the Source of the Latest Galaxy S5, if its possible, that would be hot. i have the note 3 Running a Custom Rom From HyperDrive (Big Up to Them, Best Rom so far for the Note 3), its based off the S5 and its OFF the HOOK. Just a thought, will be here Patiently waiting, cause i love this device..!!!!!
from t311 to t325
I asked me the same. I changed from the Tab3 8.0 lte to the t325 and the only customs i found are for the wifi version.
The T325 is really the outstandinged Tab out there.
I had from nexus7, nexus7 2013, Acer, note8 every tab that reads good at the specs.
But this great tab is perfect.
I rooted it and and changed all things that are possible with xposed. Thats a good deal at the moment.
Not everybody would pay this price for a tablet.

I have a very basic rom I was working on until I broke my screen that u guys can try...nothing but the knox apps have been removed so anything else u don't want will need to be deleted directly from the zip or uninstalled after flash (I'm sure u can find a list of whats safe to remove somewhere on the site). This package has been deodexed & zipaligned but that's about it...u will probably need to download "supersu" & which will ask u to update the"su" binary (just select "normal" method when prompted) after u flash. As an added bonus...4 way multiwindow also known as quad view from the note pro 12.2 has been enabled, along with lockscreen shortcuts as well as multiuser & I also added the assistive widget flashlight back but it only shows up in the widget drawer NOT in the homescreen add widget list for some reason. Also...i have included a fix for using the screen mirroring function (please thank @esgie) with a custom kernel/recovery & enabled the art runtime in the developer options (although this has NOT been tested yet & does NOT work with xposed or deodexed roms which basically deafeats the purpose)

Hey T.D. UNO
I just received your message with your Custom Rom included for our Lovely T325, Im so excited to get this Rom Fired up on my device, Im downloading it as I write this Response, Will definitely Let you know how everything goes once I run it for a Few, Thanks again my Friend, your THE MAN..!!! I have my fingers crossed that this one boots up, I want a Custom Rom So bad that i tried flashing the Wifi only Versions on the 8.4 section hoping it would have boot, the worse i expected was not having 4g/LTE, however it FAILED, didnt even Boot... lol. :cyclops:
Ok, All's well.
Just finished flashing and it booted up, all is well thus Far, Seems to be running smoothly, i will Mess with it for a couple of Days to see how it goes, is there anything i should know or do..? What would be cool is if we can some how flash the transparent weather clock thats on the Note 3, would that be possible..? If theres anything else you need tested Im here, and i was wondering what is that other file you posted in your message, it stated something about Kernel "boot (1).img"..? And ilso was wondering how your device is coming along, i think i read that you Found the lCD & Digitizer you need , did you finally find it, if so how much did it set you back..? ok, thanks again I'll definitely keep in touch, if we can Hook this device to the MAX that'll be AWSOME. )))
Hi I just got my first android phone. A Samsung Galaxy Ace 4 with a very low price an spec
turns out that it is super slow and laggy, apps crash constantly, returning to home screen takes 2-5 secs
I've already tweaked it in some ways, like disabling animations, using light laucher, etc. (ART is not available though..)
I'm very new to Android world and I just wanna know if there're any other ways to speed up this phone
maybe custom ROMs or rooting? I can't find either of these for my model. CyanogenMod doesn't support my model and so do the other custom ROMs
It lags badly. Please help :crying:

Do you have model number ?
If phone is very recent you won't find any custom rom yet, so wait a bit.
Without custom rom you can't do a lot... Especially without root.
Try to disable a much apps (stuff like Samsung apps...) as you can, and don't use Touchwizz.
You can't do much more without root or custom rom.

The model number is SM-G313HU
I don't know if they will ever build a custom ROM for my model. Should I do an unsupported way? Please guide me.

Phone is brand new, i think you can't install custom roms easilly. You need to wait and see if devs are insterested in it.
Try to disable a lot of stuff and find a launcher without touchwizz, i have no better advices.

Hello XDA!
I recently purchased a SM-T807P (10.5" LTE/Snapdragon) with the intent to use it as a wifi device.
Will anyone tell me which roms work with this device? I've heard the challenge is to find a snapdragon rom?
Its rooted with TWRP on it already. Just need some tasty roms to play with.
If there is ANY way to get cyanogenmod on it that would be my first choice (I would even be willing to offer a bounty!)
I am already running the only one I could find specifically for SM-T807P.
[ROM][TW][SM-T807P Snapdragon] SuperSkilled Basic ROM V1 + Firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-superskilled-basic-rom-v1-t3055473
I'm glad to find a custom rom, but am really for a lollipop de-bloated rom.
But ANYTHING that people have tried so far would be great.
OR anything that I should try that wont permanently brick my new tablet!
Thanks all!
Now you have twrp just make a full backup before you go messing and you'll never have to worry about bricking your tablet.
As for roms, pretty much all roms are based on stock, so just modify yours as you see fit.
Debloat, add mods, etc.

Considering that I am using a snapdragon version of this tablet maybe you could point me in the right direction about which roms work for that processor versus the other?
I know one of the issues was finding a rom that had the right kernel for my tablet.
No the kernel isn't the issue. Its that the t807p is partitioned differently than what the available ROMs are compatible with. I have the same tablet and as awesome as it it, there is very little support for it. No developers have it and its very difficult to work with without owning one.
There is twrp available which I assume you have used and rooted. There is a stock ROM on XDA that is lollipop that works awesomely. I just debloated it myself and tuned it with kernel tuner with stock rooted options. Xposed won't work without a deodexed rom either which is not available. But regular root options and a different launcher (I use nova) and i have it running pretty damn smooth.

I flashed the only KK ROM I found and got FC's to no avail. I then basically wiped the whole thing then odin'd to lollipop. I am stock now and you're right, it's a damn nice device. -- I wouldn't mind de-bloating it myself, do you by any chance have the 'safe list' to reference as far as which apps are good to go. Last thing I wanna do is get rid of some odd-ball system file that creates hell for myself.
Thank you
Just make a backup first with twrp before you go messing then use system app remover to debloat or just freeze with titanium backup . If you get an issue after removing something you can easily restore it.

No problem. First off, listen to everything xda senior member ashyx says. I have been dealing with my rooted t807p for a while and I have found all his posts on the tab s not just accurate, but extremely useful.
here is a post regarding safe apps to uninstall: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/list-bloated-apps-to-uninstall-sm-t700-t2861180
Now what I have personally taken off my tab s has been the superficial apps. The magazine apps, office apps that I have no use for, While a lot of apps on the post may be safe to delete, it doesnt mean you should if you plan on using your tablet for wireless transfers, casting and what not. I prefer not to touch many of the "behind the scenes" apps. And also it depends on why you are debloating. Are you looking for more storage space? or for better ram and performance? Unfortunately, at least for my use, you wont save much storage space by deleting apps. But freezing them and playing with it makes a big difference. On just a standard recent apps clearing and maybe a push of my "fast reboot" app, and I can get my RAM to run at around 900mb and little battery drainage.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions, I have played with my t807p for quite a while with rooting and have learned pretty well what works and what doesnt. I am no developer like the senior members on here but there aren't many people with our specific tab s.

I realize it's been a year or more, but do you have a link to the Lollipop ROM for T807P? I've tried the "SuperSkilled" ROM but it was KitKat. I looked for a Cyanogen build for this tablet but no luck. Looking for any ROM that's close to AOSP or at least debloated and is Lollipop or MM.
I have a nice Samsung Tab Pro 8.4 (SM-T325), rooted w Towel Root, KNOX untripped. This device was stranded by Samsung at Android 4.4.1, though its hardware is faster than many more recent tablets. I've already successfully changed from the original ROM to the latest but still very dated UK ROM, and successfully re-rooted. I'd like to update the ROM (preferably to 8.0 or later), but have found little on this site or elsewhere about good options. As this tablet is also a PHONE, it's somewhat of a rare bird, and I'd really like to preserve all of its hardware functionality in an upgrade of the OS. Any suggestions, please? I've found no new tablets with equivalent features (closest being the Samsung Tab S4, which has great data features, but no phone). Thanks.
I don’t have a lead but I’m interested in the custom rom you mentioned. Would you have a file for that one? I can’t really find anything on ROMs around.
