Since we don’t yet have a specific community for custom phone ROMs, let’s discuss them here. Are you running a custom ROM? Which one? On what hardware? How is it?

    I used to run HTC phones and the custom ROM scene was LEGIT. Now I’m in the same boat as you - stock Samsung, but I removed as many bullshit stock apps as I could with ADB.

    I miss CM and simple boot unlocking.

      Yea, I did the same. I have no idea why Samsung decided to force certain apps on their phone with no ability to disable them, for example the calendar. I miss the old days when android wasn’t bundled with the manufacturer/carrier’s preinstalled apps that can’t be removed without having to jump through some hoops, however easy those hoops may be. It should just be as simple as clicking uninstall.
