[Q] Note 2 newbie - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I just got a note 2 and am in the process of rooting it. I have had several android phones so I know what I am doing but my question is I want to retain the S-pen apps and am looking for a decent rom. Can anyone recommend one?

Touch wiz....that's what supports spen...I recommend Jedi....always been good to me.

Im the same way, Ive used cleanrom, stock and Jedi rom. Any of those are decent and have the S-apps. I found that most under the "Android Development" thread are touchwiz based. I usually just search for "S-pen" or "S-apps" in the thread for the rom if I'm unsure.

Download then flash Jedi xp14 and you won't be sorry!

At least from XDA? mROM 3.2 if you want the closest stock ROM without any mods. (Which I'm personally running)
MMUzzy's Jelly Bean is my next choice, stock feel with some extra additions thrown into the mix.

This is answered the same every time it's asked. Try several and see what works best for YOU. Everyone doesn't want the same features in a ROM. Some want stock and others want customization. Read the forums look at the screen shots and flash whatever peaks your interest. If you don't like it flash something else. Just be sure you make a backup just in case something wonky happens.
As for a suggestion, I am currently on Xylon V11+Zen kernel V12.

[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.

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

I've always thought MIUI makes Android look just like IOS. TW looks cheesy enough as is without any help.
And what's with the last 10 Samsung devices, all the wallpapers are the same flowers. Come on Sammy, Men buy these phones too.
If you would like to actually keep up with the latest MIUI news. You can bookmark this site http://en.miui.com/thread-4717-1-1.html
The only issue that I can see, is that no MIUI ROMs are using 4.3 at all. The latest is 4.2.2. Even using CM as a base, I think you'd have to use 4.2.2 (CM 10.1). I could be wrong, and porting is way over my head. I wonder if bmarko82 from the GS4 forum could help out. I'd give up the camera and WiFi calling for MIUI on the Note 3.
I'm super excited as well. but seeing that miui up to android 4.2.2 then i guess that's why we have wait because the bite 3 is running 4.3. they're loyal I'm sure we're gonna get it soon enough!

Miui is mehh!
I can understand if your a former iPhone type cuz of the similarity. But there's also themes and icon packs that simulate Miui if your wanting that look until a rom comes out.

Now they are up to date and we still don't have a miui rom. Let's just face it there's no developer with a note 3 interested in porting miui for the note 3....
Would have loved to see miui on note 3

First off, that link is to AOSP KK for MIPhones, not MIUI V6. MIUI V6 is not officially out. The Nexus 7 has a beta out. Someone has ported that to the Nexus 5. I have a copy and have been looking make some time to try to port to us. But my personal life is real busy. Just to let you know that I have done some MIUI work on the D2VZW until I got busy with life.

Personally I have never liked MIUI always looked at it as cheezy and when I gave it a try on my evo 3d then note 2 again. I remember why I left. Don't matter how many themes it has the UI is just ugly to me. Every one to their own preference but Google and TW are my favorite indefinitely

I'll be attempting to do so.
I would assume yes, but you will probably need a n900t kernel

Question about porting Note 3 ROMs to note 2

Alright guys , hello there. Recently we saw the release of KitKat ROM for note 3 on Sammobile (I guess its for Poland only right now), so a question came into my mind. Can we port note 3 Roms to work on Note 2? That will be great because then we can get touchWhiz working on note 2 with android 4.4.2. Any ideas if this is possible ?

By note 3 roms, you mean custom or stock roms?

Thank you for the reply , appreciated . but I am trying to figure put if its possible to get 4.4.2 KitKat on Note 2 with touchwhiz. Which I though would be possible by porting Note 3 KitKat ROM to note 2 ( because I don't think Samsung will launch KitKat for note 2)

Flashing other device's rom(s) could damage Ur phone, you can wait a bit and many of the Touchwiz roms will upgrade to 4.4.2 very soon.

Note 2 already has 4.4.2 but not Touchwiz, so I'm pretty sure there will be 4.4.2 Tw, we just need to wait

Relax bro,We are sure to recieve that KitKat taste wrapped by the Samsung UI,but in late April(if Sammy doesnt delay )
And ya the 3 custom roms posted are awesome,but whether they claim a good battery life and stability(daily use),
they are in comparision to othr custom roms..So,experience is that most ppl land up flashing StockRom at end..so better stick to Stock!& enjoy just a rooted phone,Titanium Backup,Rom Toolbox,Xposed,Greenify,LMTetc..
DO CHECK THIS,TECHILICIOUS FOR TECH-ppl to enjoy:-

Samsung have already said the note 2 will get android version 5 so we will get kit kat plus another update after that. AFAIK to port the 4.4.2 twizz rom we would need a 4.4.2 stock kernel for our device so until the 4.4.2 Samsung source code is released it can't be ported. But I stand to be corrected by more experienced devs

Im using DN3 and its buttery smooth + amazing battery life, please note that I have 3G open 24/7, may not be the best battery life, but it really satisfied me (12 hours with 6 hours on screen and still have 15% charge)
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk
Yes it's possible but:
1) It will need a kernel that can boot 4.4.2 TW on our device.
2) Tons of changes in framework.
Possibly no one would attempt that.
I'm certain to a lot extent that we will get Sammy Kitkat (official or leaked ) soon
Thanks for the reply guys,after reading your posts I will wait for the official Note 2 KitKat ROM.

[Q] Scott's CleanRom based on 4.4 or 4.3

I know based on what the website said that there will be no further development of cleanrom ACE. However, I'm looking for the Stock experience but with some modifications like Cleanrom ACE. Android 4.3 I don't like AOSP roms or roms that exclude the Samsung features. Thanks. I'm on 4.1.2
