[Q] No custom roms for g900h even after the code is released for KK - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I keep reading that g900h (exynos variant) does not get a custom/AOSP ROM (not considering the deodexed ones here) because samsung has not released the code for it yet. But I found out at the below link that the code for KK was released a few months ago -
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=g900h
Because I do not see any comments/posts/threads/discussions happening on this, I wonder whether this released code is not enough for a custom rom development or developers are not interested about it.
Let me know what is it, so I can bury my hopes of a custom rom forever or wait for the sunshine.

Why no Froyo or custom roms?

This phone has been on the market for some time now and there are almost no custom Roms for this phone. There are certainly no Froyo roms. Is there a problem with development? Did samsung release all the drivers needed?
there are in fact many custom ROMs already.
but the guys making the custom ROMs are waiting for Froyo to be released, before they go crazy on it (same here)
Samsung is releasing Froyo sometimes in September, just in time for back to school
for the time being i'm mostly evaluating all the softwares i wat to include into my own custom ROM once froyo has been released, and also building a list of build in apps that i don't use and want to remove
you can install any of the many available custom ROMs already from the DEV section just search for [ROM]
Samsung have released the source code, but reportedly the drivers are encrypted. This means all custom roms for the near future will need to be based off the official (and leaked) Samsung releases with just optimisations (eg: MoDaCo R3) or theming (eg: SamSet 1.6), but no ports or AOSP until the drivers can be recovered.
However, work has started on Cyanogen 6.0 for Galaxy S. They are stil very much in the initial stages however.
Official Froyo is due sometime in August (Korean release), so it's easiest to just wait for that and then go from there. However, we may get some leaks early if the stream of beta firmwares (still 2.1) is anything to go by.
Actually i'm quite sure Paul said that next MoDaCo release won't be based on an official samsung firmware, so I think it's just a matter of time and many ROMs will appear.

[REQUEST] Custom Kernels For GPE Lollipop

Why are developers are concentrated about developing kernels only from aosp or cm12, we received a gpe official lollipop version, a stable one, why not developing for this one too, we already said that we are willing to give donations if it is the thing that is preventing them from development [THOUGH THEY AREDEVELOPING FOR CM12] ... please respond, and thanks in advance ​
No sources=no develpoment.
We just received the official OTA. Not the kernel source.

[Q] SM-N900V vs SM-N900

Good day everybody. I just wanted to find out about the N900 variant. I have the N900V locked to verizon but it's sim unlocked so I can use it at my country.
How do you go about installing custom roms on the N900?
Is the bootloader unlockable?
Does it support AOSP roms?
I don't play graphic intensive games so I'm thinking about trading it for a N900 version and flashing an AOSP rom.
Can anybody give me a general response on how the N900 is in terms of development?
take a look at the developement thread.
As far as i know there are some Roms, but not as much as for the Snapdragon version. For example CyanogenMod12 is avaiable but just as Pre-Alpha and cm11 left at beta stage..

Req - Custom ROM for Galaxy S5 + G901F Europe Version

Hello there is there any chance at all to make a custom ROM for Galaxy S5 + G901F ( Europe version - this device is sold instead of G900F since october 2014 ) ? There is the official Lollipop 5.02 and a ported unofficial CM12 for it, but the developer doesn't have this device and there are bugs, too bad for such a wonderful device with awesome upgraded specs. All Europe is waiting LOL. THANKS

yep, i have that one installed, i've got random reboots, with the same apps i had installd on 5.02 official, and it never reboots in the same situation, sometimes browsing,sometimes just turning the flash on etc. ,today i had 4 reboots, one when i was talking on the phone, i've written in the thread, i was hoping that some dev thinks about making a custom rom, like the ones for the G900F , at least a dev that has the device

stable Android 6.0.1 Rom?

Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) and I am looking for a good Rom.
Since I am new to Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Modding I have no idea which Rom fits my expectations:
Android 6.0.1
Samsung Launcher/Theme (like on Note 4 with Android 6)
stable/fast/efficient
minimum of bugs
everything works which is not hardware limited (!S-Pen support!)
I already found out that NFC is often not supported. Thats no problem.
Can someone recommend me a Rom?
They are all posted here .

Im abit confused and hoping someone can help out.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) and have always used the hlte CM12.1 nightly's - Are these the 'official' CM roms ? And the other custom roms in the development forum, are variants of the hlte but with their own themes or features?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...-3/development
Like the user above, I just want a 'stock' CM rom but with the best battery life and as few bugs. I dont even care for the S Pen. Its a minefield, I'm hoping someone could please explain
Also the last nightly was from hlte was on 2016-07-10, does that mean no more updates? If so, how could I apply updated android security patches?
