This is a serious question. What is the appeal in s8 roms? I've been thinking of trying one myself. So far I've tried a few stock based roms and lineage (which wasn't very good, honestly) and am currently very happy with the Superstock rom.
What do s8 roms offer over stock s7 ones? Are they as stable, is the camera as good, and are there any negatives? Thanks a lot for any helpful replies. [emoji3]

In my opinion S8 ported roms are way smoother than stock. Its very smooth..
Some S8 ported roms has very bad battery life and some has good and decent battery life..
And also in my several tests i found S8 ported Camera is not good as stock one.
All S8 ported roms are super stable only.
The mains things about s8 ports is to use latest apps and features (infinity wallpaper, new lockscreen and every apps in latest dream UI version with all new s8 icons
But of course bugs cause of the different screen ratio , different hardware and nav bar , etc, so worst battery life etc..
I prefer personally s7 base with s8 apps , like ambasadii v15 + the add on that install so apps and theme the Rom to do style , and get stability performance and battery of s7 base in s8 style
And about aosp I agree. It's very sad , it's usable but compare to other aosp of other Samsung devices it's not the best, it's seems that aosp is way harder in s7 than other devices
go for renovate rom..u will really love it...good feature ...g8 performance and battery life...even camera is good..

Please let me know buddy
Somebody knows about the s8 camera? I explain, it's the same sensor as s7 but Samsung said there is an all new software treatment or I don't know what that increase the camera quality. (I am like many absolutely not sure what it is or if it's really true but anyway) is this "new software treatment" in camera app , that we "get" if we install on our s7 or in the s8 software that we can experience with an s8 rom port? What are you thinking about it guys?

Me and oranaise started working on it and we abonded it, because it needs so much time to fix all the bugs, (which we dont have) and also it is very complicated, cm13 is now very buggy and not for daily usage at all, we have already enough testers which were also reporting the bugs and made logcats, s3 neo will get cm13 but it will take a lot of time.

That's right, maybe a new dev will buy s3 neo
I doubt anyone will buy an s3 neo in 2016, it's a two year old phone and the market has changed a lot. There are way better options for the €165 it currently priced at in the netherlands. I guess we'll just have to be patient

Phone is pretty decent at performance side, even nowadays. But its old fashioned, and i think except for the Moto G there are no other choices way better than 9301i. I`m going to use it to the end of its life...it has a perfect design even in terms of shock impact absorption and can even resist falls from 3 meters against a marble floor without breaking (babys ...). That`s more than any other phone can say.

Same here, I sandpapered out the shabby silver edges to black, almost like gave it a new life. Looks really good.
Is it possible the cm13 for s3 to be ported for our s3 neo? They have the same resolution but i don't know if it's going to work...

No, that would be extremely unlikely. The chipset and a lot of the other specs the s3 has are totally different compared to the s3 neo. The s5 mini is our best bet since it has very similar specs.

There is a cm13 for s5 mini. So it would be great if anyone can port it for s3 neo. If not, i will try when i have more free time.
I lose my hope ._.

It's much better than I tought, what a good ideia!! But my S3 Neo is Blue
What do you think is better ? and what you prefer ?
S7 or N7 ?
The UI of N7 is really nice, in terms of performance there is not much of a difference, I would take the N7 if I wanted a S Pen otherwise the S7 Edge all day
N7 roms are for me better looking because the ux
I got the S7 Edge for 3 reasons:
1) Smaller phone
2) Slightly bigger battery
3) I never really used the Stylus when I had a Note 3

Same for me. When i had a note i barely used the stylus. If you want to try the Grace UI which is pretty good. you can flash a N7 rom. There is plenty and they are pretty stable.

restricted means, you are not be able to develop binaries and stuff , and you have to wait ages for jailbreak and their updates ! I developed a small app on iOS and if you wanna use it, you have to post it to apple store and you have to wait... meanwhile, if you have android device you can do it easily by switching on "Allow from Unknow Sources".. So, for me iPhone is so restricted..

Hi guys im gonna upgrade from note 3 to s6 edge plus .
Im comming from a ported rom from n7 to n3 and im very confortable with her.whatt rom do you advise.
Im from aryamod n7 port
Dont get s6 edge plus. For such a massive screen and only 3000mah battery and tbh I dont really like my phone. go for the s7 edge which has 3500mah with 5.5 inch screen. Much better option.

Romsupport is in my opinion not so good. I don't like ports. And "stock android" (lineage)has just arrived with some bugs. It's good but not flawless.
At this moment there is no up-to-date stock s6 edge plus rom available.

S6 edge plus is a too bad cellphone. Battery drain is shameful and scandalous (not only in sleep mode as, for instance, call battery drain is about 180 mAh per hour, the double of screen consumption!!!) ,it's a very heavy and fragile cellphone and Samsung firmware support updates is miserable and scandalous bad! Android O 8.0 is coming next month and this premium phone with a very hi price even haven't yet Android nougat 7!!!
DON'T BUY SAMSUNG. Too expensive for the quality and support
I saw that you have your S6. Welcome .
A tip, go flash KHONGLOI-rom. I've flashed it yesterday and it's a really good one!!

I currently have s6 edge plus and have rooted it. I tried installing khongloi s8+ port and for me i got about 2 .5 hour SOT and about 11 hour standby but with dr ketan S8 port with microG I get about 4 hour SOT and about 15 hour standby.I would recommend dr ketan rom if you do get s6 edge plus.
Which version do you have?
I've installed the latest version (7) with kernel V7 and i easily get 4 hours SOT. Need to charge it once a day. With some gaming and youtube.
If you want Dr. Ketan's rom, go to note 5 thread. That version is also suitable for our plus.

I play some very intense 3d games and snapchat. Thats probably why I get such low SOT.
The best Galaxy phone for me! 8 hours of work, few hours of talking, 4-5 days of standby, outstanding display - overall 9/10 points. G935F is better in battery department.

Hi, I just upgraded from note 3 to s6 edge plus few days ago. I must say that I like s6 edge + very much. It takes less space in the pocket. Battery life is very similar to note 3 ,but s6 is much faster. I am fun of CM & linage I have never used stock rom on both devices lol.
I recommend s6 edge plus :good: very nice phone

Hi there !
So I am on the market for something cheap that will be fast with LineageOS/AOSP roms.
I don't care for camera quality and crap like that, just ability to get custom ROMS into 2021-2022.
Why NOT get a used PH-1 ? Is there something seriously wrong with them even after flashing AOSP that might drive me out of buying one ?
Or are they perfectly reliable phones ?
Thanks ahead
Just got mine this year. And I love it more then my pixel 2. Getting almost 9 hrs of sot. I'ma rock mine till it dies
