Note II LTE and custom rom future?

Hello,
Since there is no custom rom for LTE, i was wondering what is the reason behind that. Are the firmware files for the N7105 device not available or is the source closed unlike N7100. I am currently looking to buy the LTE version, however if the custom rom wont come i will rather go for the N7100 version.
Cheers
PS: I have never owned an android device before and currently use the Nokia N900 (running maemo linux)

1) There is a stock, rooted, deoxed rom available.
2) Samsung have hindered asop development at every pass so support is low.
3) Touchwiz is VASTLY improvesd. No where near perfect but most people are happy.
4) The devs are busy working on the 7100 which is understandable so give them time.
5) The other idea is a patch to make n7100 work. (But it's looking like the changes are more than skin deep.)

I'll be looking to list any XDA N7105 ROMs on my site when they are available. I'm picking up my Note 2 this Friday 16th November.:good:

[Q] galaxy note 2 for att rooting questions.

i have recently bought the note 2 from att. i am looking to root my device, i have been reading up and the roms i have seen dont really seem to change much from the stock version minus a few here and there. also, i read that cm 10 disables the use of the stylus with is a bummer. as i was looking forward to it. as i had cm 9 on my last htc smartphone. my question is, from experience, which is the best rom to use without disabling any of my stock abilities? and where can i download this rom to my computer. thanks.

International rom port is what you want

Just curious, why install the International Rom on the AT&T version? What is there to gain?

Should I upgrade to S4 or not?

I have the S3, and S4's 441 ppi Screen is tempting me, but won't our GS3, have those features through a ROM? So should I upgrade or not?

Probably not. Unless you want Touchwiz running on the latest and greatest android build the GS4 is probably not the best way to go if you already have a GS3. Not to mention all those new features will be gone the minute you flash an aosp ROM. So YES if you want Toichwiz on the latest android version (4.2.2) but NO if you're an aosp guy or if you can handle waiting for the new features to be released on the GS3.

If in fact our tmobile s3 do not have an LTE radio then I myself might switch. I currently have the note 2 as well and I'm not 100% happy with either phones.

hmm feel like not worth to upgrade it
too few improvement

S4 is too much like the note 2.
Only plus for me is the quad core.
Transmitted from my SGH-T999.

I'll be upgrading to an S4, without replacing my existing S3 phone.
Outside the 1080P display, the TV remote and some biometric sensors, I'll have the same phone!
Samsung has already been quoted as releasing the software apps that do not require specific S4 hardware for the S3 and Note II. Look for it later this year.

Well if you're getting it for development don't count on many also Roms as cm team have already mentioned that they are not supporting the gs4. :/

Will we ever see a port? S 4

Does anybody think we will ever see a Galaxy S 4 ROM port? Based off the T-Mobile Galaxy S 4? Just wondering.
I didn't bother upgrading due to a lil change! Would you be sporting the ROM if its ported?

You should know what the likeliness of that is... And if its stable I'm sure lots would.

I seriously doubt it, so far the devs could not even port a S3 i9300 rom for our phones.
But I am sure the devs are working real hard on porting all the S4's new apps which
are missing from the S3 as well as the S4 camera.
There already are a few apps which came from the S4 which seem to work fine in our S3.
I would really like to see the S4 ported, but I would only use it if it had Wifi Calling.
The main reason why I am not using any ported roms is due to the lack of wifi calling plus all the other bugs ported roms seem to have.

I think there will be s4 ports for the S3, will they be perfect? Maybe in time.
I might try it out for a little while, but most likely stick with aospa. I couldn't stand not having PA hybrid settings as well as theme chooser.

Considering we have the Galaxy S3 slated for a Key Lime Pie 5.0.release we will have tons of ports of Galaxy S4. By the start of summer (June) I'm sure we will see more about it everywhere.

I just hope that the Lime Pie 5.0 is nothing like the current lmt pie.
The current pie should have come in two flavors, one for the DEVS and the other for average users. LOL

Here's the thing... The international S3 had completely different hardware. Qualcomm has been historically easier to port over because they use common code.
So I fully believe that in the next month or two, we will see S4 ports. On the other side though, quad core versus dual core. You're not going to have an S4
Sent from my SGH-T999

I doubt it will be any time soon. Multiwindow hasn't even been added besides the Synergy Rom.
And now that the S4 is out the devs will be focusing more on that because from what I've seen most devs from here got a S4.

And two other roms and there's almost a flashable zip ready. It's all possible, it's possible to have sense working on our phone too, but a lot work. It depends on how many awesome devs stick around, and if they're willing to take the time.
I'm not sure what's the big deal though. Most of the same gimmicky type features from the s3 are available in the from the play store, I'm guessing some from s4 will be too.

I think that it is likely we will eventually get some ports of features from the Galaxy S4. Samsung also said that they would be bringing the new features of the S4 to the S3 and other "flagship" devices in the future, so it will just be a matter of time.
But personally, I do not care because I do not care for TouchWiz. CyanogenMod trumps anything Samsung could have made.

To be honest with you guys im working on a port of s4 right now and multiwindow for stock rom and my sprint ports and att ports and a few other roms for other devices so if you guys give it time ill have it up

I'll just keep mine or upgrade to the 32GB TMO version when it comes out. I'm guessing its the US Snapdragon version (compatible w/ AT&T & TMO) & we should be able to install it on ours w/o any issues. I'm all guessing here.

Definitely wanting to sale my note 2 for that.

That's what I believe it is too.

Why would anyone switch their gs4s to that? Can't aosp just be cooked up from that version? It'll deff be much more bug free then aosp at this point

I wonder now that there is a stock android build coming will cm for s4 be better since they will have the code specifically for this phone?

What's the advantages of this???
Now we got are devices fresh in hand and bam. They... release S4 stock.

You shouldn't feel bad about your purchase. I'm quite happy with mine so far (except the overheating issue lately).
I don't have the AOSP version yet, so I can't really speak of the features that are/aren't going to be there.
I'm guessing if they make it true stock Android, there will be no Samsung bloat at all.
So it's basically a much more powerful version than any Nexus phone will ever be,
and as such the price is quite high. Personally, I would not consider it at that price.
I'm happy with my T-Mo, and with a few customization here or there, I can always get stock.
This is really geared toward the hard-core Android fans/developers. You can't doubt the S4 has the best internal hardware
of any phone out there, and there lies possibilities.

I also heard the news from google I/O. Does this mean that this version of the S4 will be as open as a nexus and easy for developers to make their custom ROMs for it?

Sony basically did the same thing with the ZR, took complaints and made a new phone out of it
Just purchased a 600$ Ip57 phone? Well there's IP58 now! (Waterproof not resistant)

It's good to have options, but honestly most people that buy pure vanilla Android are experienced users. Most will have no clue rather it's Vanilla or not.
So there in lies the questions. Why put this out after and most that come here that have an s4 already hacked it to death no? So I don't see the point of the users here who want to upgrade to this when you just put a vanilla type ROM on it.

CM only has bugs on non aosp devices. Its just as stable as stock on my galaxy nexus. Having an aosp s4 will allow all the snapdragon s4's to have stable aosp.

Not true. my nexus 4 gets bugs every once in a while.

If the hardware is identical to the tmoble version then you should just be able to flash the image through Odin right? Seems kind of like the galaxy nexus where you flash takju from yakju or whatever and boom, you are getting the Google play version of updates, wallet functionality etc. If anything it says Samsung has opened their flagship to aosp right?
Even if you think $650 is too much this means that potentially, Samsung will get touch wiz updates to new versions faster as there will be nexus level compatibility with each new android update. I'm not saying immediate but they will have an inside track based on the fact that Google will actively update their device through AOSP for at least 2 years.

CM will always have bugs due to the way they change the Android coding. Where it is stable and great work people should never look for a bug free OS
