Hi,
I just traded my Nexus 4 for a Note II and I was so quick to flash a custom ROM I never bothered to use the stock one that came with the phone. Yesterday I thought I'd try out the S-Pen in some drawing apps I downloaded but it was only working as a stylus not as a Wacom pen. I would like to know if there is a way to do the following:
Install Samsung App's on custom ROM?
Install S-Pen on custom ROM so it works as a Wacom pen and not a stylus?
Install S-Note?
Mod/Add-on for Note II custom ROMs for the S-Pen that I may have over looked?
Custom ROM's with support for Samsung Apps and S-Pen/S-Note?
Are there any ROM's that offer the best of both worlds (S-Pen/Samsung Apps/S-Note support on a custom ROM with Theme Chooser/notification background)?
Personally I've been using AOKP (or PACMAN/ROOT-BOX) ROM's for about 1.5 years and really like them and all the options and customization they provided on my Nexus phones but when it comes to the Note II those ROM's might have taken away more fuctionality than they give.
Please let me know your thoughts. Is the S-Pen is worth giving up custom ROM's or if its more of a gimmick. Are you running Stock ROM or Custom?
It will not work with AOKP roms. It will work with custom roms based off stock such as CleanRom. If you want to use AOKP, there are apps that support the s Pen in the PlayStore.

Any recommendations for ROM's based on stock/TW?
there are several of them in the development section; check them out and try them to see which one YOU like the best..

Give CleanRom a shot first. That was my first one I flashed and loved it. I couldnt tell the difference between the regular one or the AT&T exclusive one. Both are really good.
I am currently using JEDI cuz it has some MODS that I like. Skynote is a good one to try too.
What is the best alternative for snote?
I had the same problem as the title. I wanted to root my phone to enjoy it to the peaks. But the problem is the spen. I love the spen and iam so much used to snote that iam feeing bad to change the rom. For that reason i did a root but not a rom change. Please do suggest me any applications that work same like snote. And one more thing.. Will spen and snote work on cm? Any version of cm
S-Note won't work but the S-Pen will.
I posted this thread in the themes and apps section. It's a list of mods, apps ,and touchwiz like features you can install on your Cm/aosp ROMs.

Ive been able to get the note2 camera (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034867) installed and working on my AT&T s3 but features like best group pose and the like arent available. It mentions something about needing touchwiz and a deodexed rom. Has anyone got it to work with Tasks AOKP? (release 12/2) I was going to flash blackjelly because it is confirmed to work with that rom but i dont want to give up AOKP. This rom is ROCK solid but id love to have the Note 2's camera!
Nope. You need a touchwiz ROM.

I probably could come up with a table UI for one of my ROMs!!
that would be great too but i believe the minitab rom is a port with the base rom from Galaxy Note 10.1 (correct me if i am wrong) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216311
If you can atleast have the phone.apk integrated with the tablet UI rom would be awesome

I am wanting to expand my ROMs to every type of ROM possible. I want to have the greatest variety of different options for users to pick from. That is my goal!
Wow great!!, in addition to your goal. IMO I would also love to see(if possible) roms with an option to choose from various UI like from sony, LG, HTC. That would be something unique and amazing to the users. Looking forward to the roms you will dev! . PM me if any sort of help is required in any way as my programming knowledge is definetly not like the pros but i have been with the community and also a flasholic for 4 years with different phones.
I would like to flash custom rom due to the lag of stock rom, but I find CM10 does not support s-pen feature. I like S-PEN. S-pen is the one of reason that why I choose note 2 instead of HTC One.
Many thanks

Are you serious? All Samsung ROMS and MiUi have S Pen support. It isn't that hard to find that out.

Basically, any rom that has touchwiz, which is the creation of Samsung, will have S-pen features.
No version of CM has these features, although you can still use the S-Pen for plain touch. Works very well with Swiftkey Flow for example.
Also, you can find alternatives to the S-Pen apps like note and the like in the Play Store.
You have to choose between CM or Samsung roms, or you can get a Samsung rom that looks like CM. They all exist here in the N7100 forum.
Happy flashing!
Any 4.1.2 ROMS (which are touchwiz based) should support all Samsung stuff.

Heres a rom
Try dn4 or dn3 rom.
They are good and I had been using it for quite a long time and its stable. Great rom.
Dn4 is for n7100 and n7105
Dn3 is for n7105
I had tried Dn4 but I had problem with the carrier so I had used Dn3. If you want to avoid troubles, backup first then install it.
Google Dn4 or Dn3 to find the rom. I cant paste links currently
Im looking to install a custom rom onto my Galaxy Note 8.0. I currently have it rooted and recovery mode ready and accessible. Im also running Cyanogenmod 10.2 at the moment. I love CM my only gripe is the fact that with cyanogenmod, the spen doesnt function as it would with the stock rom. I was wondering what was your guys recommendations were for a rom for the Note 8.0 that has customizations like CM but still retained the full functionality of the spen?
I just bought my Note 8 and I'm in a similar position. Would really appreciate some tips. Thanks.
Check the Note 8 development forum. With n51x0 being relatively new and niche, the number of custom ROMs is not overwhelming, so it should be quite easy to choose the suitable one.

X note and zero edition for note 8.0.
Look in threads.
I'd say civz flexion is the best, fluid and fluid.
But I run on zero edition to get the most of the ram...

Do any of the custom Roms support multi windows? Apart from SPen, that's the only Samsung customisation I need.
I have always run CM or AOKP ROMs on all my Galaxy phones. My wife has an I747 and did not like me "updating" her last phone to CM10. I am having trouble figuring out IF and which ROMs are basically the S4 ROM set to run on an S3? Are there any TW Base ROMs that I can give her an S4 in S3 clothing?
Thanks
Ken
WOW, no replies at all? Does the lack of replies mean there's not one or do I not rate an answer. Not looking for the "best" ROM. Just if there are any.

Look at Jedi Academy. It looks like the S4, contacts, dialer, msgs....etc.. Obviously minus the things that require hardware. There is a screenshots tab. Take a look. The most recent ROM is 'Jedi Master'. As far as 4.2 or 4.3 no. But you can have themed to look the same.
BTW Posting title for a different phone in this forum may stop people from looking. A clearer title may have helped. ie: "S4 style ROM for i747"
