Hello to all,
First of all ,question .
The stock firmware of Samsung in 4.4.2 is a TouchWiz if i am not mistaken ?
If yes, let's go forward.
I have tried CyanogenMOD ,and some other ROMs,but i didn't like anything like the stock one. I just need the stock one without the bloat apps that has the company.
So i have find out with help the Google Play 5.0 ROM ,i really liked it,even though it's a bit different rather than the 4.4.2 but the 2 problems that i am having and if i can solve them i will keep the ROM is.
1. I want the keyboard of 4.4.2 into 5.0 . Why ? The reason is ,because first of all above the keyboard i had the numbers already installed, and the second reason is when you type in Greek "Good Morning" = Καλημέρα you need a tone in the letter έ WHICH it cannot be provided via 5.0 keyboard.
2.You don't have any program inside,which on 1 hand is good but on the other hand is a little bit tricky to find the "gapps" that you need like Maps.
3.The icons are PRETTY BIG on the start screen.
So any help ?
Thank you all.

slowly but surely I'm modifying my tw 4.4.2 to look more like GE (Google edition). So as the title says is there anyway I can do this?. The reason I just don't flash cm 11 is because I use the spen and camera a lot.
Hi!
I bought recently a Samsung Galaxy Gran Duos Prime (SM-G530BT), I think it's a new device, since it's still on samsung website index. I have some questions about this device.
1. Might it receive official updates to Lollipop? (I bet no, since Samsung hardly updates anything - and Samsung support is the same as nothing, all they can tell is the more-than-obvious)
2. Are there, already, any advance in the development of custom ROMs? (I hate touchwiz too, it makes Android 4.4 look like 2.2) When do you think there may be some cyanogenmod build for it?
3. "Ok Google" hotword from any screen option isn't appearing on the Google Now settings. My language (Brazilian portuguese) is supported, as I used it with no problems on my old Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini, in stock and custom ROMs. But, even with Google Now and Google Now Launcher both up to date, the "From any screen" option isn't there - and there aren't "Not available to this device" messages too. Has someone faced the same issue?
Thanks!
Hello,
I dont know much about touchwiz UIs and i just get my sgs5. (G900F)
Could someone help me choosing a rom?
I have 2 reason why I want to use other rom instead of stock.
1. I have 'when the screen brightness on low , my screen is vibrating as hell' problem and i want to check out is it software problem
2.I just checked Galaxy A5 2016 Rom and it is kinda nice in my opinion.
(I dont want to use stock android UI after having much phones with that roms (cm1x.x and etc.)
In addition, im just happy having fingerprint scanner and it would be wonderful if it would work. I saw that some ppl use Hi Locker's fingerprint lock, is it possible having a rom without fingerprint function meanwhile using fprintscanner with Hi Locker?
Could someone send me a link to download and install a rom?
Thank you for any help!
I recently downgraded from Lollipoo to Kitkat on my A3 2015 because Lollipop was laggy and it freezes. Now, I miss the interface of Lollipop (lock screeb with notification and others) how can I make my Kitkat look like Lollipop without updating my phone?

Unfortunately there is no way to get the the Lollipop Type notification without actually updating the phone. I advice you to update back to Lollipop.You can use third party launchers to get a lag free experience,eg Google Now launcher.I have a A5 and I am running a custom ROM and man it's Soo good.I suggest it to every one.HadesRom V2.1

No mate, A5 is different from A3. The lollipop in A3 is very laggy and always freezes, I even tried to change launcher but nothing changed. Now I am in kitkat, it is more smoother. All I want is the interface of Lollipop on my Kitkat.

Hey so Im new to samsung phones, but i got my hands on an old galaxy note 4 910T model that I want to repurpose. I come from oneplus phones, and I have no intention of using samsung's touchwiz OS.
based on the research i've done, if I try to install a non TW rom, the S-PEN's feature won't work. is this correct? Does that mean it can't function as a normal stylus as well? or that it won't have the fancy other stuff?
if the stylus works just for normal touching, then that is fine with me.
I'm looking into possibly using lineageos 16.0.
Any advices / tips or tricks you guys got for me?
also, is there any like discord for you guys so i can instantly ask questions / get help live instead of the forums which is a bit slower?
Your assumption about the Spen is accurate; the stylus will work as a normal pointer and touch device but the fancy stuff baked into the Samsung TouchWiz ROMs won't be there (when you pull the pen out on TW ROMs a menu shows up).
I would highly recommend you start with Havoc-OS ROM Pie which right now is my favorite for this phone (I have the same version) because everything works great out of the box.
Install the proper TWRP (trlte) via Odin, boot into 'Recovery' and you should be able to install your custom ROM in no time.
Let me know if you have any other specific questions.

makes sense. so if i were to run a non-TW rom, the s-pen would still be able to press stuff? how come it doesn't work on like a oneplus phone? or does it use different glass or something

Yes, it works just fine to select and press on the phone screen. It's probably because the OS is specific to the Note 4 and is configured to recognize its own SPen.
