Options for Verizon Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900V) ROM
Options for Verizon Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900V) ROM
Hey all,
Want to know what are my options for example, Lineage 18, or AOSP Android, or something else. The reason I want to do this is it has Android 5 and there's just too much that won't work on it. Also I want more control as in remove junk I don't want, move apps to SD, etc. Not have stuff run and waste CPU and RAM.
If anyone has specific knowledge about this device and what's the best option, or even tell me what any given option offers best, that would be very much appreciated.
That's an 11 year old phone, it's time to move on, you're not going to be able to run anything modern even with a custom ROM
On top of that, Verizon and Samsung are notorious for locking down the bootloader hard and you need to be able to unlock that to have any sort of custom ROM
Even a cheap Walmart 50$ Android phone will be better than the one you have
I like it. It’s fine if I can’t get any custom rom onto it. It’s not my main phone I don’t even use it as a phone. It’s just a supplemental gadget.
Also, to suggest that its age means it should be replaced is a horrible attitude. This thing can serve so many purposes including even as a main phone if someone didn’t need too much. Your attitude is why the planet is falling apart.
When I had my note 3 I used the cyanogen mod.
I currently use a Note 9. Its the note 3, but updated to today's modern tech (relatively) I no longer get software updates but it does have a lineageOS
Xda developers will be the place to find it
That site is like an asylum. I tried looking but it’s an absolute mess. It’s fine though this was sort of a if I can I will kind of project. I have plenty more devices to tinker with. Like too many lol.
What's the Lineage website say?
They don't have the Galaxy Note 3 listed in the devices. However, numerous websites state that 18 works on it. Are they all wrong? I would believe if you told me it simply cannot be done. I don't know what to believe anymore since there are a million sites that are full of shit as it is.
Do you know of a rom that does work on it?
