Hi All,
Hoping to pull on some knowledge if I can.
I have an S4 and need to find a JB 4.1 rom or earlier (ICS or similar). I have struggled to find one - does any one know where I can get a stock or other ROM. any is fine as long as it is 4.1 or earlier.
WHY?:
- My car Bluetooth system does not work with BlueDroid Bluetooth stack modification that was introduced in 4.2 and newer. 4.1 and before used BlueZ Bluetooth stack and worked great. Sadly BlueDroid is not backward compatible with some devices that worked on Bluedroid.
I have searched and searched with no joy on finding a 4.1 or earlier ROM. I have also tried suggested solutions on forums such as keep device Bluetooth visible and use app "Bluetooth auto connect".
I hope someone can share a link with me for a suitable ROM or perhaps show me a way of reverting from the new BlueDroid to the older BlueZ stack in a newer ROM.
if all else fails I guess I have to get rid of the phone and downgrade to an S3 that I know has widely available 4.1 ROM's.
Thank you in advance.
No 4.1 on s4. Its only 4.2 and up
Me Gusta!
Yup that's what I thought thank you for confirming.
Any chance of any ROM with blues as well as bludroid in it?

I turned on my Note 2014 10.1 today for the first time in, apparently, over a year. And it still had over 90% battery charge on it after all that time. Impressive. It has root access and I'm running version 5.1.1 of Android on it. But I figure there's a newer stable version out by now that I could update the device to. But which one is the most stable, good on battery usage and performance, and with the best features?
Also, I've never used a custom modded ROM before, and I don't have any particular interest in doing abnormal things. So, unless they would offer some performance / power / security / feature or usability advantage, I probably don't need one.
Which ROM would you install to a Note 2014 P605 today?
One ROM I've looked at is this port of Android 6.0.1 - reported to be stable and good for daily use:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-2014/development/rom-android-6-marshmallow-t3254901
I notice there are ROMs of Android 7 and 8, but I don't know if any of them very stable, with good performance, issue-free.
I'd love to know too.. Also is there a ROM that enables smooth playback of h265 videos?
Thanks
Nothing is as stable as a stock rom. And instead of the basic AOSP 6 you can as well stay with Touchwiz 5.0.
Or install LOS14/16/17, all several generations ahead.
My P605 is running rock solid with LOS 14.1 Nougat by @davidmueller13.
Unless you definitely need the s-pen functions (which can be bought as an app afaik) I recommend switching to a new ROM to get newer safety patch levels.
And David's best supported rom is the old Los 14.1.
I'm torn in between going back from Los16 and waiting for an update to the Los17(alpha) from early this year.
S-Pen works in third-party and Samsung apps available in Playstore and you can use it system- wide instead of your finger. Not more.
i need help i can't find the OEM option in the developer mode in my samsung 10.1 2014 i tried fastboot method and i was stuck on waiting for any device i need to be able to install twrp i have tried odin with no success . any suggestion pls
You can't unlock the bootloader?
That's not possible with some P605s with provider branding.
One major hurdle when attaching the device to a pc can be overcome by invoking Fastboot at power - on and then attaching the phone, instead of establishing an ADB connection which will require a reboot into Fastboot mode later on.
Good evening. I am completely new to modded rom installations. Is there perhaps a step by step guide on hoe to install the LOS Roms to my device?
Thanks
Hello,
I have an old Samsung S10+ which I havent used for years. Recently I found it and wanted to play with my GearVR. unfortunatelly I upgraded stock firmware to newest stock version not awared that android 12 stopped supporting GearVR. My bootloader is version 16 and newest version of android 11 has version 14. So i found out i cannot downgrade to version that can run GearVR.
Now as I understand have no other option than use some custom ROM. Could you recommend me one that does support GearVR? I do not care about carier/SIM (I wont be using it as phone) I do not care about anything else. All I need is system that supports Oculus and working WiFi.
Thank you
PS. Simple instructions of how to install custom rom are very welcome. I havent play with roms for 10+ years. Since then everything changed and I need to learn everything from scratch, all posts I find are 2 years old, are those methods still working?
