what i can see... most 5.0 ROMs are still in alpha and not really stable yet.

so not trying.

anyway, ended up rooting the phone yesterday since i could not find a way to flash recovery without the stock one reinstalling itself.

then went on to flash Liquid Smooth. dun really know why... but just don't seem to be my cuppa. it seems ok but could not find options for infinite scroll on homepage (something i really like). i know... can use other launchers but to me, that defeats one of the purpose of installing custom rom. some other little things includes : advanced options hanging on me and causing FC, hard to get to settings when i pull down notification (i prefer some ROMS that allows 'immediate' access to SETTINGS)...

wanted to try DN4 since it seems kinda impressive but when i saw the file size (1.6GB, i think), i decided not to try... yet.

so, gonna go with CM11 Nightly and see how. had previously tried it on S2 and while it did not really have everything i wanted, it was still decent.

what are you guys on?

STOCK!!!!! with boeffla kernel all i wanted is there.. put in new launcher, remove some bloatware, tweak a bit here and there now become my own version of custom rom..

Stock rom with Agni kernel not bad

hahaha... i guess its not diff than my adventures with the Note 2. after playing around, ended up with an optimised stock ROM -- ARHD.

anyway, can i ask... how to Flash kernel? any difference from flashing regular ROM? use ODIN and select PDA? can use TWRP?

i use mobile odin.... if i recall is place in PDA for ODIN...

Just flash the zip file with cwm..

I love boeffla with regular and stable updates.

if u want something small...try neatROM KK...4.4.4....last time i try quite ok..no fc..size about 100++mb...excluding gapps of course...

just saw this, port from note 2
anybody using it ? with note 4 features @_@

who's on dn4 rom right now? do you faced problem when call maxis 122, and it displayed "next track button" as contact's name at the screen?

liquidsmooth also around 100+Mb only... i was just surprised that DN4 is so big...

Use MobileOdin much easier bro..
If Odin..tar file in PDA
If zip file...use CWM/TWRP

Oh!!! NO!!!!!! Boeffla stopped renewing Kernel for S3 4.3.....


Service Stable releases !!!
Hi all,

finally there is the time to call a good beta a stable version.

And this is what I am doing now for all 3 Samsung kernels:
Version 5.4 stable (for Samsung Android 4.3)
Version 6.1 stable (for Samsung Android 4.4.2 ported roms)
Version 7.1 stable (for Samsung Android 4.4.4 ported roms)
Only change compared to latest betas is the update of the internal su to version 2.40.

Important note: All three kernels are now put on status "maintenance".

This means, they will not receive any new features anymore. They will however be maintained in case significant updates to base sources or ramdisks are required. Same goes of course for really significant bugs when they should appear.

Need some help here. I dropped my s3 on the edge of the brick. So the screen glass has shattered. The phone cant be switched on.... how to check whether its just the electronics are not damaged so tht i can replace just the screen.

Like good stuff. Anyone tried?

You tried to turn on the phone? Able to hear phone ring?

One more option.. go to lowyat for free checks...

Looks good .. not sure how's the performance??

need root to flash this rom?

Halo! Custom le... no root how to flash....

managed to download the DN4 ROM last night... had put off earlier due to the large size compared to other ROMS... DN4 was like 1.4GB compared to 100+ for LiquidSmooth, etc...

having used DN3 rom on Note2 before, i was kinda skeptical since the DN3 left a bad after taste.

but good news... first impression... not bad. did not detect those little quirks that i used to see on DN3. but its too soon to tell since i only flashed it this morning and the phone is without SIM card, so not much to test.

i noticed the ROM came baked with some extra apps... so, deleted them.

it seems to come with Boeffla v2.1.
