Well, after all these years of install custom ROM's, I've just about come to the conclusion that in the end, you are better off staying with stock, UNLESS it is absolutely full of float, and only when rooting / ROMing is the only way to update your phone.
If you install a custom ROM just for fun, than cop it sweet.I have a stock Note 3 and a stock Note Tab Pro 12.2 and while all the samsung junk drives me mad, this is the lesser of two evils.

That’s good to know. but how hard is it for them to fix the ay11 issues with the accessibility short cut coming up when you do the two finger jesture when you install cyanogen mod and then reboot the device and cant get the two finger jesture to work and have to rely on someone to get that to work. if you can suggest a way that I can get that to work then I will take a second look at cyanogen mod. I don’t mind I am just wanting it to work for everything and not here and there. I do have a nexus 4 and was debating on installing cyanogen mod because of the ay11 issues with accessibility short cut not working at initial set up. if you can give me suggestions I will try. I do have ADB shell set up so if you wwant to give me pointers on how to accomplish getting cyanogen mod I would welcome your pointers off list. -----Original Message----- From: vi-android-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:vi-android-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dialup @ 56k Sent: Monday, October 06, 2014 4:11 PM To: vi-android@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vi-android] Re: installing a ROM IMO, CyanoGen Mod is the most stable and reliable of all custom ROM's currently available. It has a very large developer base, supports a very large number of phones and tablets and gets regular updates, usually every night. I have a 3 yo HTC Inspire 4G running Android 4.4.4 r2, which makes it more current than the newest Sammy S5. Installing any custom ROM has accessibility issues; putting that aside IMO if you are going down this route, you should use the most stable and reliable custom ROM, and again IMO, that is CyanoGen mod. And for the record, Cyanogen rejected the offer from micro$oft, and others to purchase the company. Glen *** On 07-Oct-14 9:45 AM, norman wrote:Hi. Syanogen isn't worth playing with because it has some a11y troubles. I haven't had a chance to install the other 2 yet so can't comment on them.

On one list, which I cannot get my messages to for some reason, ("eyes-free") and yet I receive the messages, one person posted about OmniROM and Carbon, and Quentin here posted about CyanogenMod. I am hoping a screenreader user can inform me of which mods work with a screenreader, during the install, and then after that, which of the mods work best with TalkBack. Maybe there is not much difference with the different mods once they are installed, as long as they include TalkBack, I just don't know. Finding information on this from a Blind user's perspective is a challenge. We need some YouTube videos/audios on this. Thanks for any information.
