SlimSammy is a customized Rom based on the Stock Touchwiz firmware. As everyone knows we don't really have any development on the stock ROMs for our device so I decided to be the one to bring this up. I've built this Rom myself nd I've added as many tweaks as I could. I'm dedicating this thread to whole of the MODs nd tweaks related to stock ROM so I'll keep adding the new MODs nd tweaks from other people on this thread, with the proper credits. ;) You guys can also share any tweaks you personally use to make the stock experience better for other users. I'll feature them in the OP!

Features
Stock Based.
*Pre-Rooted.
*Busybox v1.25.1 Pre-installed.
*Highly Debloated, Removing all Samsung spying apps!
*Deodexed.
*Zipalligned all system apps for better performance.
This Is Just The Initial Testing Version So This Is All For Now, I Don't Have This Device So I'll Slowly Modify Nd Add Lots Of Features Just Like Neo's Stock ROM.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. I dare you to take a complete backup of your ROM nd data.
2. Download SlimSammy zip.
3. Reboot to recovery.
4. Format System, Cache, Data & Dalvik Cache
5. Install the ROM.
6. Reboot.
Please be patient first boot will take sometime.

Downloads:
SlimSammy.zip


Bugs:
-404 Error! No bugs found. Still if you face any problem just post a comment with proper details.
-I strictly warn you to read the second post.


Thanks To:
I'll update it in sometime.

The ROM Doesn't Boot Up For You?

So it is reported by some users that the ROM doesn't boot for them. The cause it different firmware versions. This ROM is based on This Firmware so you'll have to flash this firmware in Odin before flashing the ROM or else it might not boot.

@MUELAJE I'm glad you liked it. ;) Please edit your post nd remove the OP from it, it is a rule on XDA to not quote the whole OP. Also as you've tried so please provide us with screenshots for @raitkaop nd everyone. :D
@Owen007 I've seen you requesting for the ROM for a long time but the problem is your device doesn't have sources.
Flash this ROM on your device, there would be some bugs for sure but if you mention them I'll fix them.
Also, This is initial step don't worry I would be tweaking the ROM nd adding lots of features from all the Respective Modders out there. Don't forget to Press Thanks if you like my work!

Need instal google apps?
Hi Steven. You don't need to install google apps, they are pre-installed. Please edit your post nd remove whole of my post from it, it is against the rules of XDA to quote the main post.

Yes, I've been seeing that. In this ROM I haven't implemented asserts so you won't get any errors while flashing. You can go on nd you would be able to flash it successfully.
I can help port ROMs for your variant but for that you'll have to test them as I don't have that device.
Flash it & let it me know.

Did you follow the steps properly? For how long does it stay on the bootanimation. Please provide a screenshot from your About Phone nd also proper details.

Oh okay. :p I want you to tell me about the most stable mods you use. You can have a look at Master Thread of G531H nd point me.
Also which version of Core Kernel is better nd smoother? 2.5 or 3.0?
I heard really good reviews of version 2.5 but not sure about 3.0
