when I was 12 years old then I did put CM7 on that Galaxy Y...still alive to this day almost 10 years old
The highest:
Android 10 Q Huawei P30
And now:

How does that S4 handle modern apps for you ? I have an Asus Nexus 7 with 5.0 Lollipop/Kali Nethunter and it gets really slow and unbearable latency if I try to update any apps or install new-ish ones. It just doesnt have the RAM or the storage (32 gb). I dont recall how much RAM the S4 had but I remember loving that phone until I backed over it. Never even got a chance to root it or install a ROM. Thats pretty impressive that you managed to install CM7 at age 12. I dont think TWRP was even available yet (?). I was more than twice your age when I successfully flashed my first ROM and there were 3 phone corpses in my trash before I managed to root an LG Volt with Flashify. I put the PacMan Rom on it, wish I still had that phone. Congrats on preserving that Galaxy Y .

Answer for ur questions:
How does that S4 handle modern apps for you ?
I use Facebook, Messenger Lite and tmob app only, but good i guess
I have an Asus Nexus 7 with 5.0 Lollipop/Kali Nethunter and it gets really slow and unbearable latency if I try to update any apps or install new-ish ones. It just doesnt have the RAM or the storage (32 gb).
The 2012 or the 2013 version? I have the 2012 version with CM-14.1 and it can handle the same apps and Minecraft 1.17.41 with 60fps/s
I dont recall how much RAM the S4 had but I remember loving that phone until I backed over it. Never even got a chance to root it or install a ROM.
I tried to install a ROM for the S4 but I bricked it by the unofficial TWRP 3.5 by JDCTeam and I had to restore the stock rom (I tried to install Lineage)
And I dont really recommend installing roms for it..only the official LineageOS 18.1
Thats pretty impressive that you managed to install CM7 at age 12. I dont think TWRP was even available yet (?)
Well I was 12 in 2021 but it was my birthday (october) sooo I'm 13 now lol. TWRP was available for the Galaxy Y (TWRP 2.8.7.0-TWRP 3.0.3)
I was more than twice your age when I successfully flashed my first ROM and there were 3 phone corpses in my trash before I managed to root an LG Volt with Flashify. I put the PacMan Rom on it, wish I still had that phone.
That's nice..but 3 phone corpses?? nevermind..everyone makes a mistake lol
I rooted an LG too (the G3 i guess) because my cousin wanted iPhone emojis on it and complete iPhone theme (still don't know why she cant move on about this )
And for the PAC-Man rom, I love it, but CM is better I guess
Congrats on preserving that Galaxy Y .
Thanks man, I needed the Y.. Good ol' times when it didn't matter what phone did you have

Those wanting to relish in the "good ol 60's" should consider dumping playstore, GMS and putting MicroG instead for performance . One miss out is AFAIK in the latter , Voice typing is missing & cant get that functionality - but def worth a try

I really need help please, I love Note series but hate it's stock rom.

Hi,
Please I am tired and really I need help, I will try to explain my problem In short:
1- I love the note series devices and I feel it's designed specially for me, I was from the first people who bought the note 1 and I remember how people were looking to me in the street or in bus, at that time the note 1 was something different because of it's big display , but because of Samsung stock rom, every year I buy the note and sell it after one month.
2- when I use the note I feel like I am naked in the street, I feel no privacy, why Facebook, Microsoft and some application installed in my system and I can't completely remove them? why these Apps took big space in my Phone? I bought this Phone yes? I paid money yes? why others control something I paid it's cost? why when I search for something in the most private browser (Firefox) I find my searches in Facebook as ads? maybe if Samsung gave me the note for free or 50% discount maybe I will accept this.
3- Now I have rooted note 9 Exynos N960F DS with unlocked bootloader, I tried many custom roms here the most rom I liked the Pixel Experience 9.0, but the huge battery usage made me sad, I was happy again when I found the GSI AOSP 9 and 10, I tried for weeks to install this rom but it's stock on the booting android logo, I searched a lot, I found a kernel they say it will make the GSI rom work on my note 9 but no way.
4- I found a nice uncompleted solution by deleting unwanted apps completely, I installed TWRP and used a file manager inside @dr.ketan (N960F_DS_N_PIE_Root_for_OEM_issue_devices_V5.zip), finally I was able to delete some stupid Apps from my note 9, but then my Note 9 could't boot the stock rom, I must use the root and OEM fix in the @dr.Keta zip file, but this made mey note 9 rooted with some problems in G play services.
What I need now?
1- Is there any way to install the GSI AOSP 9 or 10 on my note 9? it will be great to me.
2- If GSI AOSP rom can't be installed, can I use TWRP with stock rom without root? or can I restore the stock recovery after using TWRP?
2- Anyone has any idea to help me?

rebirth or restart with the galaxy note 4

the latest official android version for our device is android 6.0.1 which is recent enough to support 99% of apps and i recommend you to go for it but there is a note fe port by anar to android 7.0 which has a few bugs but stable enough and android 9.0 versions which are not samsung ports but they are very close to real android versions like on google pixel
you failed to mention what model you have
and there are 2 huge forums to explore and learn about your Snapdragon and/or Exynos models
for either of them the note 4 has android variants up to pie (9)
if you are in unofficial, custom roms
Thank you so much guys. I found a port version of note 7 and it's perfect. Obviously without finger unlocking but everything is ok with the apps I need to use. I searched the forum for the Windows application "samfir" I put my model n910c and installed the current firmware 6.01 ZTO and then looked for the TWRP and so the update was actually completed. Many thanks guys for the tips and advice

Little help with update

Hi guys,
I'm running android 9 ui 1.0 with root on my note9 n960f Exynos and want to update to android 10 ui 2.5.. And i'll be honest with everything that's gone on last year, with a 2 month stint in hospital - due to having covid and then with all the bull**** with job etc.. I not 100% in thinking I can remember what to do - so thought ask first. I was going to try Official Lineage CFW but if anyone suggest anything else(happy to check) Also can someone point me to correctly updating phone, is it flash stock 10 ui 2.5 first then the CFW or can I go straight to CFW.. Sorry for such a Derp question, but I been told I can update straight from 9 but hear says " OVER FULLY STOCK ANDROID 10 FIRMWARE " so guessing that right ! and also that with no root then? Sorry guys,but my note 9 my baby till maybe a Note 20 Ultra when contact out in 8 months. and on top of everything else - I don't want a bricked phone ;( Any help most welcome guys .. many thanks !!

So you are running a rooted custom rom now?
Technically you should be able to install a new custom rom ... but ... best to check the rom thread of the new custom rom you want to flash.
And stick to the recommended installation method. Usually in one of the first posts of that thread.

很抱歉我之前只用過一鍵刷機我所謂的電腦分區沒概念我想問你是要下載Android SDK還是直接用windows自帶的ADB調試橋就可以了
Is it necessary before flashing root What about my device? I want to experiment first with another old phone of mine Practice how to flash The phone model I am using is HTC Desire 12 Are there any friends in the forum willing to take the time How about teaching me the process of flashing the machine in real time?

Stock Rom or Custom Rom?

Hey there. i have a s20 fe 5g (snapdragon, model SM-G781B), galaxy s8 (exynos), ans galaxy tab A 7.0 2016. Right now I managed to install Android 13 (Lineage OS 20 + NikGapps + Magisk for safetynet) on my backup s8 aswell I managed to flash Lineage os 14 (Android 7, along with Gapps) on my galaxy tab A. Im wondering to do the same about my S20 FE 5G since its support is unfortunately about to end. Thought of flashing TurboUI after i would unlock my device but just want to confirm its safe before doing so. What you guys think? Many thanks.

Hello
This will depend on what use you will give it.
Apparently you are not interested in any of the OneUi customization layer, nor Samsung Dex.
Personally, I am not interested in lineageOS or any rom that is not based on OneUi.
well with many errors, be fighting with incompatibility.
you will find GSI, Lineageos, etc.
I preferred stock rom with modified kernel, androd 13 will not stop working in 2023,2024,2025, etc.
I don't see the importance of moving to an invented and beta system for the team, at least at present.
You will find among the best options:
*stock,root,kernel(bandit,klimbo,etc)
*Turboui v4
*GSI.

Rn my S20 FE 5G is at binary 5. I dont care about rollbacking because i do like the latest verisons and have no use to move onto earlier versions. I just wonder if binary 5 would only limit me to this android 13 one ui 5.1 (like if i couldnt install an android 13 or even a future android 14 rom only because of binary 5). Would it be safe to switch to a custom rom that has the same patch and the same android version without binary 5 doing mess there (like i want to install the latest turboUI at one ui 5.1 may patch, is that possible?)
Rn the device is at may security update, I hope it solved this problem so I could safely move to custom rom without further issues. If I had screwed please let me know as possible to I could reconsider before doing so avoiding further damage. And yeah I have checked OEM unlock and it appears so i believe no issues should occur, just should factory reset (among with removing samsung and google accounts before doing so), enable debugging and oem unlock, go to download mode and then unlock bootloader, and then flash twrp and then whatever i think so.
And yeah I prefer one UI over stock android however the latest custom one ui version for s8 was only one ui 2.5 (hades rom) and no one even dares to make a new one for it, is just dead there. I felt urged to install android 13 so i had no choice but to flash LineageOS 20 (along with nikgapps and magisk). Meanwhile the S9 can get even one ui 5.1 ported via noble rom. I wish something would be done despite being 3 years already since.
But still I won't have prob flashing kernels instead of custom roms if so. Thank you very much.
Alright, just managed to install TurboUI without issues and against all odds.
I was worried because the new binary would mess there but still I managed to do it without issues, and I feel grateful for it
Speechless.
I can't appeal your urges to desperately switch roms.
reading the previous thing you wrote, I have nothing more to say.
If you have errors in the future, please go to the appropriate channels, (turboui, gsi tem, etc.)
Thus, avoid publications due to user errors without investigating before installing.
excellent day.

Alright, have to admit, learnt the hard way
there is SEVERE lack of custom roms there. The lineage OS cant mix with gapps and the custom one ui rom drains battery faster. I had no choice to revert to stock rom. I downloaded its firmware of april patch. Flashed it using Odin and it worked successfully!
You can call me an idiot for the rest of my life as you wish, i had should considered before doing so. Anyways I feel grateful for restoring its rom. But anyways if I would need safetynet I would welcome myself to do so.
I should learn more before installing these stupid roms. Maybe i will continue flashing on S8 but i wont longer flash on S20 FE since that incident. (And noice, the software firmware not matching, aka red message on bot disappear!)
If you have any suggestions youre welcome to tell me so, sorry for not beliving you at first. I should owe you everything
Have a nice night, ig, and I should learn much from that
I understand your inspiration to improve performance.
I've been doing this from symbian (nokia, sony ericcson, palm, blackberry, ios)
current times are not the same.
we are with more powerful processors.
larger and faster ram memories.
Over the years it took me to understand that it is currently not necessary to change the rom.
Example: you are with a s20 FE android 13, it is a completely current system, recently released last December.
I would not have to go to lineageOs, why?
Why did android 14 come out for lineageOs?
I'll have to break down my s20, of course not.
Seeking to get the most out of Oneui with a kernel that exploits its characteristics and without system bugs, seems to me to be a more suitable option.
When it is 2026 or 2027 see GSI options would be a good option.
repeat again, it is a personal thought, for so long I learned, to free myself from stress and constant mistakes.

Alright, just finished relocking my bootloader. Yeah, no more software updates but I can still download them online, and they are security updates so i guess not really a big loss because no more OS updates (One ui 5.1 is final!). Still I HAVE to learn from this incident onwards, maybe on 3 years whenever the device would be too old like the s8 only then i would reconsider doing so. But for now I would stay with this stock rom and I would keep updating it time to time as needed. Everyone makes mistakes anyways. And yeah bank apps continue to work despite device not being play certified, so I guess no root and safetynet would be required. Still, Im very sorry for now trusting you, and I would from now reconsider what Im doing. Lets hope it wont happen even again, peace
Edit: Also managed to get OTA updates and play certification back after relocking it, noice, updating to may patch shortly after recovering my data

I understand
my team is a:
G781B Oneui 5.1 patch February binary 4.
I'm in stock, recovery, no encryption, root, kernel Klimbo or bandit.
I am more than satisfied.
a kernel that delivers power, overclock, etc.
For games it is plenty, for daily use it is wonderful.
Sorry if my previous translation sounds harsh.
Only that I currently install several roms, kernels, graphic drivers, etc.
they only cause bugs.
If you are looking for something stable I recommend stock and what I mention.
greetings.
In banking matters, there are modules for magisk, they worked for me.

Yeah as I relocked my bootloader play certification and ota updates came back
No longer trusting those BS roms, only losers would do so. That rom has drained me much battery and only let me charge at 3W (Yeah I have charger with display, and this occured in real life!)?! What a BS rom tbh! The only positive point I managed to find was the Google feed, but who would burn their battery away just for google feed?! After reflashing stock rom much better!
Very important thing to consider if you even think about flashing a custom rom on your S20 FE 5G. DONT DO IT, YOU WOULD REGRET IT SHORTLY.
I have unlocked bootloader and OEM root.
Even so, I get updates that obviously I will not update.
The last strong update was 5.1 in February. We will not have 6.0, there is no point in updating.
I can go back from android 13 to 12 and 11. Is it necessary? No, but I have the option.
greetings.

In the end security updates should protect us from any kind of exploits, including dangerous ones
But as the devices continues to discontinue (I mean, from october 2023 will start Quarterly updates and year later fully discontinued, the point would of course rise again. But until this happens the custom roms have a chance to delelop as time is going, and if there wont be atleast 1 GOOD custom rom, whats the point to attempt to flash a human managed ROM just to later report bugs to them, impacting your daily basis and ect?
After the last security update on about 2024 I believe custom roms would have chance to rise again, just like it was with the S8. S8 ROMs are better than the S20 FE 5G's ones. I need this time to let the custom roms develop, and once they are developed enough I would reconsider on installing one.
Until then, good luck

I understand you.
The people who have the time to try the roms are appreciated and they are the ones who help the development.
in 2018 i had s9 snapdragon 845.
I was on oneui 2.5 android 10.
in your case you acquired s9 exynos. a jewel to know that note 10 lite would carry android 12 and 13.
They gave me an A7 2017, said note 10 lite managed to port oneui 2.5 android 10 (official was in 8.0 oreo)
I'm assuming your s9 runs android 13.
only that samsung Dex and iris lose or am I wrong?
Anyway, for day-to-day use, having the s9 with android 13 is great.
Yes, the roms for the s8 will be better, because the years have passed and the project is more mature.

I never had a s9 but I have a s8. The only problem with the S8 was that its latest One UI Rom is only maxed at One Ui 2.5 (Android 10, Hades ROM). Thats the only main one UI port available. You want to upgrade software? flash lineageOS then! Pretty dissapointing S8 only supports One UI 2.5 max meanwhile S9 supports one ui 5 max. And note 10 lite doesnt have as many custom roms as the S9. So just like the s8 got locked at one ui 2.5, the s9 would also lock at one ui 5? and after getting locked would the s9 users be forced to install stock android, just like on the case of the S8 users which the same happened to them earlier?

I never had a s9 but I have a s8. The only problem with the S8 was that its latest One UI Rom is only maxed at One Ui 2.5 (Android 10, Hades ROM). Thats the only main one UI port available.

In the case of the s8 it is to be in 2.5 with android 10.
is a candidate for lineageos or gsi.
the exynos s9 will have up to oneui 5.1 ported from note 10 lite.
remember that originally it would be in 2.5 android 10.
you can still live with the s9 with note lite size on android13.
or at best go to s20 fe
Alright, an update after a while
Managed to successfully resolve the issue with Samsung health not working: I have installed a patched version and it's working like new. Just to note I shouldn't update it in any case. The only question is if it would sync with the watch. I mean it already can sync with the account, but I would to test it with the watch too. If everything is going fine I have no prob returning to Samsung. The fact I even didn't had to root to install modules only to patch this issue was wonderfull.
About secure folder and Samsung pass I don't care anymore about them and I had barely used them too, and I have no issue leaving them alone. Instead of secure folder I can use Google photo's safe to store my naughty photos, and about Samsung pass I can use Google passwords instead. Galaxy wearable has worked from day 1 since the issue no matter the incident.
This is a big lesson for my ass, and I shall be smart before doing naughty things like this again. Kids, please learn from me and don't be a stupid guy like me.
