If you don't want trouble with apps not working, force closes, and want your samsung s-pen apps to work stick with stock roms. i've had 4.1.2 stock uploaded by teshxx and the thing is smoother than smooth with battery life much better than 4.1.1. I've had the phone since t-mo launch date so I can definitely notice the increase.
You don't have to wipe data either. Just go to recovery and wipe dalvic / cache and you're good to go. Good luck.

These 4.1.2 roms have great battery life

Personally, the only reason I would get a custom rom other than samsungs is for the ICS software buttons. Unfortunately, non of them have that option, even the Cyanogen roms. Yes I know we can modify a simple file in the note 2 and I have dont that before but it totally messes up the layout.

congrats!~ I honestly thought you were going to need some help with that other installation stuff as well ^___^

i've been using the jellybeer rom that works for TMO in the AT&T forum and i really love it.
Boodies: it has your software buttons.
Only cons of this rom is the loss of multiwindow but that's small for me compared to what i gain. Flash what works for you.

I am HUGE fan of the Jedi Master series, it's worth a try if your just looking for something that everything works on that is NOT pure stock.

I've had nothing but issues with the Jedi roms jedi master has echo problem maybe fixed now as I have not used that in sometime. Jedi X data drops. Tweaked is by far the best as its 100 percent fully customizable!!! S4 Themed is also another good one! Those 2 are the best if your looking for a T Mobile based rom.

I'm new to the Note 2 scene....I wanted to put cyanogenmod on my Note 2 but I don't want to deal the force closures and bugs ether. I'm confused...why would some flash their note 2 with a stock rom if it's not going to have the features of cyanogenmod such as the DSP aadvaudio settings, custom brightness levels, and advanced configurations on the slide down bar?

[Q] Rom Recommendation

So im getting my T-Mobile Galaxy S4 later today. I was wondering what rom I should flash? Im coming from the Verizon Galaxy Nexus running AOKP and it was a great phone but it was just stale and plain.
Im looking for a rom that has unlimited free wifi tethering mainly (If there isnt any roms with this built in please provide a wifi tether tutorial) and still has all the features that come with the stock GS4. So if you can give me some recommendations it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks:laugh:

Nice exactly what I needed thanks.

I don't recommend installing a custom rom yet, I tried a few like Omage, PacRom etc.. but none had phone signal and 90% had wifi/bluetooth not working
What u really need is just a custom kernel, root, themes etc... and ur good to go

Do they have tmobile in the Netherlands? All our roms rock in tmobile-town. For example:

Ye they do but none of them worked, when searching for providers u were getting strange stuff like 20932 or whatever number it was instead of the provider name

Best touchwiz rom?

I've tried several cm roms that I loved, but every single one gives me problems receiving texts and pictures. There's no way to update prl so I have no clue what to do other than switch to a tw rom, which seems to be a dying breed. Any recommendations for really good ones? In particular I want one that's at least 4.3.1 and has a nice kernel like ktoonsez. Thanks everybody

try them all, all are best, but only you can determine what is best for you.
As these threads get closed becasue they are subjective, and as XDA is not a support site, so goes this thread.

TMO Note 2 Dev support slowly dying?

It's like a ghost town around our parts these days. CM 10.2 last updated over a month ago, Jedi longer than that, and no real CM 11 support. I checked out CM support for my previous phone Galaxy s2 and they have CM11 and nightlies. Are we the Jon Snow of the galaxy note 2s?

Yea its getting close to bail out seems like most of the devs have sadly :/

I flashed AGNi kernel for the n7105 and its very stable and I'm getting all day awesome battery life on 4.3 bootloader and 4.3 rom.
I have not flashed any roms for the n1705 or ATT yet as flashing them needs modem flash and I think has higher risk of bricking or loosing 4g. So untill I see a great tutorial on how to flash n7105 or ATT roms, I'll stick with my stock rooted xposed Note 2.

Not many N7105 or i317 ROMs flash a modem. Only one I can think of is DN3. The rest don't touch the modem.

I typically flash our modem and agni kernel after the rom. Also remember to enter the correct apn settings for your carrier.

That's some good information I'll have to try some of those. We're only about 6 months away from (in theory) from the Note 4. I know typically TMO phones get the least amount of attention I wonder what the Dev support for the TMO Note 4 will be

I think there will still be dev for awhile but with each new android update it seems battery life gets worse. With 4.1 I could get 5 hours screen time, with 4.3 I get 3.5 and with 4.4 I get maybe 3

Seems that some guys are having issues with DN3 and it requiring a modem flash choice of i317 or an N7105 modem. Not terribly straightforward for folks not on either device.

DN3 is the only thread Ive read for t889 and thought all other roms also needed a modem flash.
This opens up a new set of possibilities.
Thanks for pointing that out.

kitkat seems to be lighter and faster. but im speaking purely on the basis of running it from CM and Slim. Plus hopefully the camera bugs will get resolved that are present on KK (not sure if it has been fixed already) when it officially comes out for our devices. It's sad but development has slowed down for our awesome phone But i am running slim weeklys. and im impressed. but it still bugs out on the camera at times which i dont like but besides that its buttery smooth. non of that samsung junk

I 100% agree our phone is awesome the difference between the 2 and 3 isn't that much which is why I didn't upgrade. At the time development was good CM was rocking and now the Note 2 from a Dev perspective is like There is a note 2 TMO? I know you can flash other note 2 roms but I'm not gonna

Thanks for the heads up about the camera bug. I was about to try ASOP rom but I'll hold off now.

[Q] Which ROM? Slimfast or ezKAT?

Having been on Jedi X18 for months now all the 4.3 and now kitkat TW ROMs are really new to me.
I guess my first question should be, is there any reason I would not want to go to 4.4 and should rather opt for 4.3?
Of the two 4.4 ROMs what are the basic differences between them? Which installs more simply on an AT&T i317 being used for Simple Mobile (T-Mo MVNO) still on 4.1.2? (I'd rather avoid Odin having no experience with it, but am under the impression the AGNI kernel would be enough...)
Thanks a lot for the feedback!

I'm sorry if the original title is misleading, but I'm not really asking which ROM is preferable, I'm just trying to gain information on the differences between them, as well as between the 4.3 ROMs (such as SkyNote & DN3) and them.
As I mentioned after spending a lot of time researching and installing the 4.1 ROMs such as Scot's and Jedi, I haven't really been keeping up with the newer trends, and even after going through about 30 pages so far am finding it a bit overwhelming.
The one basic piece of information I have been able to figure out so far, is that it seems like the 4.3 ROMs (at least until DN gets out of Beta for 4.4) are more full featured with Air Command, etc.

Is KitKat so much better than 4.3 that it's worth giving up all the custom add-ons (such as from Note 3 & S5) that are in the 4.3 ROMs like like SkyNote or DN3?

It's not that's it's so much better. It's improved to make the phone perform better. If you want a 4.4.2 from DN3 then»»»»»
GoHERE if you want those features. I'm using it with zero issues atm.
The link is under downloads section.. And on the Eteam website the Rom Dl is at the bottom enjoy...

There is no base code for 4.4.2 for the AT&T Note 2 yet. Since AT&T has not released the update yet. This means that both of these ROMs are built of the international build (N7105 I believe), so there are some bugs, and the kernels might not be perfect. It you want new features and a smoother faster experience i have used both and with the proper tweaking they are running great, but if you aren't comfortable with fixing issues and just want a stable daily driver without any hassle i would stick to stock or 4.3 ROMs.
If you don't use the Samsung/Touch wiz features on your phone and are itching to try something new there are a bunch of really good stable 4.4.2 AOSP ROMs out there.

Its nice for a bit to play with but the more you use it the more you miss what you had with 4.3 mods like I said I flashed back to stock to get the ota when (if) it comes out lol

Jedi, Slimfast, Beanstalk, DN3V5.2, ezkat?
I don't know how many of you have been trying all of the ROMs.
I have been trying on all of them including DN3V5 and ezkat.
One of things that I'm sure of that Jedi x20 works all the time. That is a reliable ROM for sgh-i317.
DN3V5 and ezkat come next. They are full of features with one single problem that I keep erasing these ROMs. Their data connection through gsm or other modes keep dropping. I have not been able to solve that problems yet. If I do, DN3V5 would come on the top.
For those of you who have S4, Beanstalk is a superior ROM. That's my opinion. I give my opinion on practical matter. If it works, it is good. Otherwise, it may be marginal or not good.
exkat gave me some headache at the beginning until I got it to work. One needs a little bit of work to make it work. Well, I would say the same to DN3V5.
Finally, I have not given up on DN3V5 and ezkat yet. There must be a solution somewhere. There must be.
