What are the chances of getting a pure Google edition Note? I think it would be a great option. I love my TW Note but am definitely interested in the Google edition especially when it comes to the firmware updates. Hopefully this will be an option with the next note model. What do you all think? Roms are great but sometimes you have to give something up to get something else with roms.

I think the chances are slim to none. If I am not mistaken, the S Pen is dependent on TW.
The pen works fine on aosp, only thing you lose are gestures

There is also so much more functionality you would lose..
I can't see it ever happening. The spen features are the major selling point of this phone for Samsung
It defeats the purpose of the note in whole. Plus why when you could just flash a Google rom and flash back to tw whenever you want. Before the note 2 I would have said yes I used to always flash cm or non tw roms but with note 2 tw is much better.

Hmm, I guess I hadn't really thought about the spen features and functionality. I guess when it comes down to it it's because I don't use it that much. I take notes here and there but that's about it. I just really like the size of the note. I used to flash roms before the note but I agree tw on this baby just works.

And of course you can get back the gestures if willing to spend a few dollars for an app, such as GMD SPen Control. (You do not however get back SNote or any Samsung apps)

The post is not ment to see which rom is better! There are now 7 or 8 roms for our device, I don't want to flash all of them then figure out that the one I was using was best for my needs. So I wanted to know why people were using their specific rom and why because it could help people determine whether to flash that rom or not. So chill out!

That's why the dev puts the features in the op. So you can see if you want to flash. Then if you read a Page or two of the posts you can see what people are saying about it. Basically all rooms are the same at this point. Some just have extra mods or are themed. Try one... or two. Every one had different uses and preferences. So what I say is the best you may hate.

I would doubt it. The s-pen is a Samsung thing. AOSP doesn't support it. I THINK the guys working on a CM10 port here are trying to make it work though. I guess it will have to be some kind of CM10/Samsung Franken-ROM. lol
Been switching between Jedi and clean roms... Both are great roms. Been running jedi 6.1.2 for the last two days and have to say i love it. But i will be checking out clean rom 3.3 soon to see how it runs.
Jedi all the way.. It's a smooth and stable daily driver with everything you will need to get the most out of your Note 2
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 Jedi v6.1.2
Using Jedi X6.1.2 and have not seen a flaw.... I like to play around with different roms usually but it will take some miracle to move me off this one. Best of all worlds... using nova launcher touch wiz features and spen heavily. Happy guy here
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I tried Jedi rom first because I do not want to mess around with glitches and want as stable of a rom as possible that gives me the features I want. I will go into a rom thread and check the date of the OP's last update. Then I jump to that date in the thread and start reading about the latest release to see what people's opinions are. Everyone loved the Jedi rom and now I do to. There is not a single thing I can find that doesn't work with it. It is fast, stable and had the multi window feature that has not been released on my AT&T phone yet. Although flashing can be fun, I don't want to keep flashing all the time, so I want to be as stable as possible. Jedi for the win.
The only thing I didn't like about Jedi was the branding text on the bottom of the notification drawer and the lock screen. Anyway to turn those off?

I don't like it too. Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929217 make a backup!
I started with CleanROM but ended up switching to Jedi as well. Been running it since 3.1 and now I'm on 6.1.2. Very stable, great performance, can't find any excuse to flash another.
I'm sticking with stock unrooted with Nova launcher. I've spent way too many hours rooting/unrooting and flashing roms on my last two Android phones (SII Skyrocket & SIII) only to find out each rom had glitches. Stock has great battery life, works with the S-pen, and just works as it should.
That's what im doing but having a hard time not flashing or rooting !!!! I may have a breakdown soon lol

Jedi 6.1.2 is the best rom out there and i can promise you one thing, i have tried all of them but this rom is something else . go for it
The description says that you have to have the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100, just wondering if it works for my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 2 T889. Im going to attempt to root my phone for the first time (or for ANY phone EVER for that matter) and would like to try this one out since it's the closest to the stock phone. Also, I seen alot of roms don't support the s-pen or true multitasking so this would help tremendously.

No it won't work for the T899. If you're looking for something close to stock, try Jedi Master which includes wifi-calling. If not having wifi-calling isn't a problem then I suggest Jedi X. Best way to find out what is best for you though it's to flash ROMs and try it out

Pen will work but all the things the pen was designed for are dependant on TW framework and do not work with anything else.
My opinion on the Note 2 it is stupid to not run TW based roms. They have better battery and more functionality. With as many themes as we have you can make TW roms look like any other if you know what you are doing.

i gotta say... if youre waiting for a port, youll be waiting an eternity... i been waiting since the s3 first came out and i realized how crappy aosp camera is compared to the stock samsung... a port is beyonddd waiting for because itll probably never happen...
thats why i cant go back to aosp.. i bought this phone for the features, otherwise ide of gotten a google phone. all aosp does is rip the features this phone has away.

Have to agree on this I owned the galaxy nexus, galaxy 2, galaxy 3, And I always been a fan of cm or aokp but running them in this device in my opinion kills the whole experience I hate tw but it has come along way since the galaxy 2/3 days camera features are amazing to get rid and if you use nova launcher you kinda get the aosp feeling but stay with all the tw features..... with the hardware on this phone there is no lag whatsoever I run wicked 3 on nova launcher and phone runs perfect no lag ever.......

The point is, if you are going to cut out SPen and multiwindow on the Note 2 then why would you buy a Note 2 in the first place. Its those 2 features that make the phone what it is. I tried the Cyanogenmod......but I could not use the features that I normally use everyday, or at least had to load a hack to make them somewhat functional. If I didnt need the Spen or multiwindow I would have bought an S4.

Omni rom has multiwindow (more like split view)
Every aosp rom doesn't natively support Spen and Touchwiz multiwindow. Like I said, if you want all Spen functions And real multiwindow you must flash a Touchwiz rom. I don't think aosp roms are what your looking for
