I am using Note 3 LTE for 18 month , it has many active Custom ROM thread.
(Yes I am flashaholic user.)
Now, I am looking to buy new cellphone.
The S6 Edge look very impressive, but I found slow growing in the thread in Development section.
Does it cause by Exynos chip ? or What do you think?
yes true..but since 5.1.1 don't let us deodex and yes more phones are effected from this..we have to wait..for updating the process
Hi!
I'm extremely new to this process, but I'd like to learn!
I was wondering if we could port Xiaomi's MIUI 7 to the S6 Edge (G925T), and other variants.

This forum looked like a great place to start.
Thanks!
I would be interested to see this for the G925P

I think too, it would be interesting
We need a fully working AOSP KITKAT rom as a base for the MIUI port... We need to wait patchrom for lollipop
I would love to see this!
I have searched for MIUI rom s6 1 edge but did not see anyone develop for s6 edge

Always on display feature is first and foremost only for S7 and S7 Edge. If you intend to use it on S6 Edge then obviously it won't work unless you'll use S7 Edge port for S6 Edge. And the reason you are able to use it on your Note 3 is just because you are using S7 Edge Rom Port.

I guess this is exactly what he asked. My understanding of what he wrote is the he IS using the S7 ROM port on S6 Edge but the Always On Display is not working while on the same port on Note 3 it is working. If that's not correct and he is using another ROM on S6 Edge, then you're totally right

Hi, it's exactly what I meant Rapier you're right thank you
On the s7 port for our s6 edge the code to make it work maybe has not been ported correctly. And on the note 3 maybe the dev there made it work i hope I'm not mistaken but the dev here abandoned the s7 port for our device.
Its kernel related, On note 3, galaxy s3 and s5 its working because there was devs working on it, and our s6 seems like no dev is currently interresed in it
It's not about being interested or not, it's about the fact that developent on Exynos is a PITA compared to Qualcomm due to lack off sources and support from Samsung. It was always like this on Exynos and that's why older Galaxy devices have plenty of ROMs and we dont.
So until we'll have this, it's hard to do almost anything.
To come back to the problem in discussion, the ROM is a port...that is taking part of the rom, libs and apps from the S7 and merging them with libs, kernel and drivers from a working S6/S6 edge ROM.
The result is a bootable and most working S7 ROM, but where there is speciffic hardware integration for a certain function to work...we dont have it as it's build in certain libs or in the kernel and we use our own
I hope that this pretty much explains why this and other features are not properly working or even not working at all. We should be glad we have something and hope for more...

An always on display for the s6 edge as the s7 would certainly be a nice addition, it just looks cool along with the functionality of it. I hope we see something in the near future for the s6 edge.
I personally would be more than happy with an always on feature similar to the edge clock & notifications feed (the one turned on when the screen is off with a slide gesture) but instead being
permanently on providing burn in issues were properly addressed.
Apparently s6 edge won't be getting always on display with the nougat offcial firmware.. can anyone make a rom with it and some tweaks when the update releases.. it would be very useful to every user who owns s6 .. just my request.. have a good day
Hello friends,
I recently dumped my old generic Android tablet to pick up a Galaxy Tab S7+. I'm finding the UI and overall experience OK. With my own phone and wife's prior tablet, we had installed custom firmwares such as Lineage-based one for her phone and Pixel Experience for mine. However, after Googling the heck out of this, there really doesn't seem to be anything for the S7+. It is just not a large enough user base or are there issues such as hardware limitations that are preventing any custom firmware?
Thank you.
You can always try a GSI. I bought the Tab S7 for its S-pen though, so I have to stick with OneUI
