[Q] SM-N9108V (Chinese) Custom ROM options

Hello peoples!
First, allow me to kick myself for buying a Chinese phone. OUCH. There, moving on.
I have the Note 4 model SM-N9108V, Android v5.1.1, and it's been a complete nightmare to deal with it. (IT DOES NOT HAVE GOOGLE PLAY!) It seems this is the least common model out there on the internet. I have been able to find guides for all versions of the Note4, but for my version is very difficult.
After some brick scares, I was finally able to root my phone, install ClockworkMod Recovery and Open GApps. While it's "usable" now, some things still don't work. For example, The automatic Google Sync just does not work for some reason. I have to go on Settings and automatically click on everything to sync (calendar, contacts, etc).
So, I'm guessing my only option is to flash a custom ROM. But I can't find ROMs specifically for this device....
What are my options here? Can I install CyanogenMod made for the international version? Is there a Android 5/6 Stock ROM out there in the wild that I'm not aware of?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
TL ; DR Which custom ROMs are there for the SM-N9108V? Is there a Android 5/6 Stock ROM available? Can I install the CyanogenMod for another Note4 version?

Hello.
Allow me also to kick myself since i bought also this stupid version of Note 4. And imagine i exchange it with a S5. What a deal!
Anyway, there is a very nice MIUI ROM (xiaomi style) for this phone, see my post here where i collected all the posts explaining how to do it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66904680&postcount=2
Also you can root it and install also google play and everything is working fine.
Except the 3G and 4G! in my case they are not working well, i have drop calls, no data connection etc..
Can you tell me, do you operate the phone outside China? is it working ok on 3G?

Chinese galaxy note 4 gapps that work!!
Hi. It's been.a while since I've seen this post, looking for a solution for this phone. I finally got it working properly with all the Google apps.
After installing TWERP, I have tried many different gapps packages but always had the same result. Google apps crashing over and over again. I have finally found the right one and made my phone fully functional.
baNkS’s Dynamic*Gapps for Marshmallow*(279 MB)
This being my first ever post on this forum, I am bot allowed to post any outside links. But you should be able to Google it.
In the description, it says that the built-in script detects the chipset and installs the correct set.
Upon installation and restart, the Google services still crashed every couple of seconds but I was able to sign into my Google account. And, after an update, everything was fine.
I hope you find this useful, since it's an old post

Help me save my old Samsung Note3 (bought from UAE)

Hello Friends,
I have been hanging around for a while now. I tried my hand few times to update my Samsung note3, as Official service is not provided to phones bought from outside India. Sadly.
Current ROM that I flashed was in 2015. But it is unstable. It changed a lot on my phone,
like my model no now looks like - SM-G9250, (originally it was SM-N900) only.
Details of my phone are:
Android Version: 5.0.2
Baseband Version: N900XXUENG1
Kernel version: 3.4.39-5466072
Build Number: Aurora.Full-G9200.Port.No.4.2
Important: Phone is Samsung Note 3 (Exynos)
My question is simple:
Please help me find best / suitable ROM that my device can happily run. Without any Google Service Errors.
If possible, please point me towards instructions about what to do and how to do. Technically I am little confused seeing all the choices here in forum.
Thanks and Regards,
Praveer.
Come on Guys, Help me out. No one has any answer ?
Update fro my side
===============
I tried using [7.1.x|SM-N900| Unofficial LineageOS 14.1 (ha_3g)], I find myself in particular problem, after flashing ROM, GAPPS and SU binaries, the Google Music stops just when I begin to set up the phone (It happens when language is getting selected), upon going further, the "Google Play Services" stop when I am trying to setup the Google A/C, just after setting up wifi on my phone.
Actions taken so far:
===============
I have tried flashing ROM again and again (must be more than 10 times and counting), I have tried flashing ROM + GAPPS before flashing SU. I then tried ROM+SU and then GAPPS. I flashed ROM with GAPPS (Pico) too. The verisons of GAPPS used so far now are SUPER, STOCK & PICO.
Out of all combinations, Pico gives me least headace. But Google Play Service Framework should be same in all packages, right ? In either case, I am always greeted by "Google Music has stopped" just before I begin phone setup.
Plus I noticed when I did factory reset+cleaned internal storage+cache, I always get "E: Resource (front) -(fixed) failed to load" message in logs.
Do this error creating problems in flashing GAPPS ?
Also, Can some one please tell me what should be partitions on the phone (Samsung Note 3 (SM-N900)) Exynos based ? Maybe I have wrongly configured phone setup ! After all, I have tested so many ROMS over last 3-4 years, that I have forgotten the original partitions detail.
Regards,
PrankSter.
Hi there,
I will move your thread in the correct forum dedicated to Note 3 Q&A for more relevant answers.
Good luck
If you flashed a custom rom then logic says ask in that thread .

New ROM for my S5 Neo

Been using LineAge OS for a while, it was nice. Freed up whole lot of spaces
Looking however for a new one as it has some issues and the one I used is unofficial
-How long will LineAge OS goes official and fixes some issues I have:
>Can not hear any calls from Viber or Facebook Messenger app, can only speak to other person
>Some apps would freeze or crash (mainly social apps like Facebook and Tumblr, game apps never crashed yet)
-Zapryannov seems to be a nice alternative, I am using G903W model. But feel free to shoot other alternatives
-Are there any special steps to flash new custom ROM from an existing one or do I reboot to TWRP, wipe stuff and flash Zip as usual?
-Cyanogenmod was popular in the past but I can't seem to find it, did they support S5 Neo before?
Custom ROM removes a lot of preinstalled apps that I have, hence I want it. Using stock rom and removing preinstalled apps seems unsafe (with root).

1- nobody knows. But what does it make a difference? Just for the status being "official"? It doesn't mean anything, I ran unofficial builds for years on various phones and some had problems others didn't.
The thing is, this device doesn't seem to have very much development going on, so maybe 1 or 2 Devs working on such a project won't make it bug free very fast. ROM development is a time consuming hobby.
U can probably help them speeding up development if u insist on getting this ROM "official".
1- > those are bugs, read above
1- > read above
2- just try, that's why where on xda, .. to try..
3- the usual
4- cyanogenmod is lineage os these days

Samsung Tab A 8 (2019) SM-T290 rom + root?

For a while I have been looking for any working custom ROM for the Samsung Tab A 8 (2019) SM-T290
Are there any yet? I've checked every few months since i've got it, and so far nothing. It's such a slow tablet, which is made worse by being bogged down by awful bloatware like google and samsung apps that can't be removed. I'd like to remove them and increase the privacy of the device.
I believe, that it is unfortunately running android 12, since even though I had automatic updates disabled it updated anyways, true to the spirit of scamsung products.
In the case that there are still no supported versions of lineage or aosop.. is it possible to simply remove the bloatware or just obtain root on the device?
If I just remove all the "essential" google nonsense and samsung bloat, it just boot loops. Plus, even if I replace the launcher, it will keep running no matter what. Taking up the already limited 2gb of ram
Hey brap, so i dont have the link to it off hand as im at work but andy yans linage os builds will work on the sm-t290. The one with out gapps is pretty peppy version 19.1) but the image with gapps isnt nessicarly any better then stock but i havnt really used it for anything except termux and baulders gate.
Also there is a nexus rom out that doesnt seem to work too great. It crashed alot on mine.
Both of these should be easly findable through the search. Im still new but if you need some help, let me know and ill see what i can do.
Edit: forgot to mention that both of these have root. With andy's you have to install the app for it to work.

Seeking English ROM with gApps for Huawei DRA-AL00 (Y5 2018/Enjoy 8e Youth)

I have a Huawei DRA-AL00 (either called the Y5 2018 or Enjoy 8e Youth depending on which source you believe) currently running Android 8.1 (device details from Droid Info attached).
I am seeking an English language ROM with gApps (or the option to add it). I have already searched the forums and found this thread, however, the ROMs listed seem to just be copies of the stock ROM (or, at least, I can't find any details about them except that they're Android 8.1) I'm worried they'll have the same issues as the factory reset OS that I've already tried. I also searched google generally and found a lot of ROMs for other Huawei phones but none that looked promising for this one... Neither LineageOS nor ArrowOS seem to have an option for this phone. I also don't see a TWRP version that's been specifically tested for this phone, but I'm thinking of trying the one that's recommended for the Y5 2017 or the Enjoy 8 Plus. Of course, that's only relevant if I can find a custom ROM worth using. I'm willing to risk bricking this phone by using a TWRP and ROM that are intended for a different but similar phone, but I'd rather do so with input from someone who's more knowledgeable about phone OSs than me . I'll post the results of any ROMs I try here so others with this phone can have clearer info on what works with it.
Thanks for your help!!
***
Additional info below, not necessary to answer the original question .
For context, I'm a complete newb to flashing custom ROMs on phones. That said, I follow directions just fine and have spent most of today watching and reading tutorials for other Huawei phones (can't find one for this phone specifically...). I've also already tried several different fixes to get this phone functional without replacing the OS, but each new fix keeps raising a new issue or only partially resolving the original one. Hence reverting to the solution that's always served me well on laptops and desktops, replacing the OS.
I have already:
- Factory reset the phone.
- Set the system language to English (this succeeded in getting most of the day-to-day interface to show up in English, but about half of the pop-up messages and the contents of the in-built app store/browser/etc are all still in Chinese...).
- Replaced the keyboard app as it was also still an odd mix of English and Chinese which made typing pretty difficult...
- Tried four different methods to install gPlay on a Huawei phone all of which appeared to be working during install but result in a gPlay app that won't open.
- Tried installing the apps that I need without going through the Play store, however, anything affiliated with google (eg gmail, gmaps) refuses to work. I updated Google Play Services and Google Services Framework APKs to the most recent versions I could find that are Android 8.1 compatible but that didn't fix the issue.
- Disabled as much of the bloatware as I can.
If I can't find a decent ROM for this phone, I'll keep trying to work around its issues using third party apps. However, I'm starting to lose hope in reaching a truly functional solution with the current OS. It'd be sad to give up on this project since it's a quite nice little phone for the very basic functions I need - decent speed and truly epic battery life (nearly a week if I'm not using it much!). At the end of the day though, it only cost me $88 in the first place, so I'd rather risk bricking it by flashing an incompatible ROM than leave it to gather dust in the back of a drawer somewhere .
Hey I have a Huawei DRA-AL00 with English ROM . It comes with Gapps and stuffs but my problem is getting Twrp for it. Can I ask how you got yours?
