What's Omni HOMEMADE

Hello everyone,
Yesterday for the first time I tried OmniROM, coming from CM 10.1, because I wanted to try Android 4.4 on my Note 2.
So I went to OmniROM's homepage to grab the ROM but all I found were nightlies. I then downloaded the latest nightly (11/26) which got me stuck in boot animation first, then crashed and burned horribly during Setup Wizard.
So I searched the net looking for another option and stumbled upon this ROM from DownloadandroidROMS.com, or whatever is was called, which hosts basically every Android ROM under the sun:
4.4-20131112-N7100-HOMEMADE
I loaded it through CWM, then Gapps from PA, then SuperSU, and everything is great. I'm one happy 4.4 root user.
Questions:
1. What is the HOMEMADE thing? Is it safe (in the way of spyware/malware)? Is it like the "Stable" release from CM?
2. How come I could not find it on OmniROM's official homepage?
3. This ROM was apparently released on 11/12/2013, so when can we expect the next release, if this is the stable version?

Homemade is just the default name for a self-built rom. Regarding safety... you have to trust the guy who made the rom...

HOMEMADE is to omni what UNOFFICIAL is to CM

Did anyone tried Project E OS Rom?

i want to flash project E OS Rom. a customised rom without any Google App or Service. so i just want to know can anybody tried this rom before? is there any bug? or everything works fine in this rom

I tried but got back to LOS. /e/ is too much iOS style for my taste. It is running smoothly though. However if you want to use apps from the store, be prepared to get English content mostly or at some point language mixed content. Happened to me with Google maps.

N910F Gyroscope Not Working with GCardboard after Flashing Cooked ROMs

Hi everybody.
I have a N910F with stock marshmallow 6.0.1 Rom, everything work well but some app are not available for this Android release
and stock firmware is full of useless bloatware so I rooted the phone, injected with odin TWRP twrp-3.5.0_9-0-trlte.img and installed many different coocked ROMS, I tried:
Lineage OS 18, 17, 16
Aosp
Cr Droid
Havoc
Resurrection ReMix
and many others
I also installed OpenGapps, usually nano version, but also tried more complete versions
But.. I keep having the same problem:
Gyroscopes on Google CardBoard app are working on stock rom
but never work on cooked rom and do not work in any app related to Google Carboard (i.e. 3D games or 3D video players).
If I flash back the stock ROM gyros and Google CardBoard work again.
I tried many different ROM so I think this issue is relevant to something I do (or do not do) during flashing process.
Does anyone have a clue?
Can you help me please?
Thanks a lot

SM-975F/DS looking for custom rom that supports GearVR

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?

Searching for a good ROM for A910F

Hello people of the internet, I'm currently using a ROM installed by a shop 4 years ago, Android 6.0.1. And right now I'm looking to install a newer ROm on my phone but most of the ROMs I've found didn't have valid download links. I was wondering if anyone got any idea about the current available ROMs for the A910F and what the most stable ROM currently is.
The main reason which is making me change the ROM is the GPS, the GPS on my phone is working at all and sometimes it works in Google Maps but very very rarely.
