Getting a Note 2 soon looking for advice

Hello all not sure if this has been asked before, but I'm going from a note 1 to a note 2 very soon and was wondering what the big differences between the new kernals and ROMs were. Experienced user input is very welcomed. I'm looking for something stable with great battery life as a start, after that, I can try new stuff as I want. Thanks again for any input I get.

ok, you have an honest face, so I guess I believe you...

That's the main reason I'm getting the note 2 I love my note and everything on the n2 is better I'm just looking for a solid starting point with a custom JB ROM that is stable. Something that sadly the note 1 doesn't have.

None of them are stable. If you want stable stick with stock ROM which is very good. If you are OK with some minor unstable-ness then go with CM10.1 which is really nice on this phone.

So the JB ROMs still have the lost call function and the random reboots? Or is there just a base debloated JB type ROM that don't suffer from those problems?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2

Yeah pretty much although cm10.1 has fixed a lot and those guys are very good developers. Most other ROMs are just mods of CM. There is still some issues with CM but minor I personally never had a lost call or reboot but sounds on calls sometimes is an issue and camera freezes and video recording has lags and stuttering.

This is not true. Clean ROM is just as stable, if not more stable than stock. It's essentially a stock ROM that had been debloated and had some performance tweaks. I switched over and haven't looked back.

I agree with the above posters, clean rom is super stable and deflated.

I don't consider those roms those are modifications. That it stock rom with modifications.

I keep on coming back to clean rom 3.5. They have newer versions but this one works best for me as far as speed and battery life. Go to scottsroms.com and looked in the recently archived builds section.

Something new to try supports our S2
I didn't build it so don thank me.

0xD34D is the creator of the ROM. He also built MIUI for us back in the days of 4.1.2.

Before people grab this and start running off with it and running their mouths about bugs there are a few things that should be realized.
1. 0xD34D has posted on XDA before and there is no reason to think he won't this time around.
2. This seems to be a sort of alpha or beta based on the build number.
3. If you need stability don't flash random roms without realizing things like alpha, nightly, milestone, etc. Stick to [STABLE] roms.
Carry on and have a nice day... :good:

So far, so good. Had a little glitch with the theme manager, though. It defaulted to Jellybean colors but I prefer those anyways. Definitely let it settle before customizing. I flashed the newest Note radio on top of it and flashed the latest gapps. Everything is running smoothly. Great battery life so far and very little lag. I'm running the latest nightly btw.

If you read their website you would know that's exactly what they did. However, they dug into the System and theme manager and mad it reach a lot more of the UI.

Is It Me

Or Has The Development For This Phone Seriously Slowed Down?

The S4 came out. Many are working on both devices or more, 5 or so Roms just got updated I wouldn't see that as slowing down very much. This is also the time a lot of people get the used device to Dev on so many may come to our community as well. If you get "bored" you can try to build yourself or use att Roms also, so long as they don't have their updater-script device specific.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

I think the above is true. It's just not shiny enough anymore. I still love it though!
Another aspect, from a development point of view is: why? Why develop for the S3? It's already over-saturated with (mostly) TW and AOSP ROMs. And one ROM is pretty much the same as the next. What I'm trying to say is, nobody is going to reinvent the wheel, because there is nothing wrong with the one we're using. If I'm being honest, we already have a ridiculously large selection of ROMs to choose from. There's not really anything to update.

Well over in sprint forum we have cnexus working on the sense five rom...i dont think its slowing to much
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

There is always a slow down between major Android releases as well. We will see a huge uptick once 4.2-based TW ROMs launch and even more when key lime pie launches.

Yup, I'm a great example! I was gone for what, almost 6 months I think. Real life comes first for sure!
As far as roms go, I'd much rather have just a few really solid ones than anything.

This!!! And further more like aerowinder stated, there isn't much more that can be done. Almost all AOSP Roms have the same issues and will continue to for the most part, they all use the same overall base for the most part, if one has more "features" it is more prone to breaks, same goes for TouchWiz Roms. The more stuff messed with and customized the larger the chance for breaks. I think the forum is bloated as is but thats not a problem as it gives options.

Im just hoping on a ubuntu build just for the hell of trying something new but other then that rocking miui v5 because every aosp rom is about the same so are the touchwiz one's..

I completely agree with this, I find roms that are closest to stock, AOSP or Touchwiz, to be the ones that are the most pleasant to use.
Not trying to bash all the hard core rom cooks out there who packs in features into their roms, it is just my preference. You guys are doing an excellent job.
I know how much work it takes to develop a piece of software, especially when working by yourself or a tiny team. And for free.

I'm watching Ubuntu development and its not progressed any further on the kernel level than the last kernel I posted - it's in Development if you want to try out the OS but nothing works. I have to wait for Ubuntu to update the kernel source... They're still using 4.1.2 source code which is what they launched with. They need to work on the kernel before it's going to be any use.
First release isn't until October so I don't think they are going to do much kernel development right now and instead they're going to focus on app development

No one is working to port 4.2.2 update to our phone..
I am relatively new to S3,, is it really difficult to get 4.2.2 from international s3?
and in original android development, besides cm, paranoid asop roms there is nothing else.

It is not possible to port international ROMs to the Us S3. Entirely different hardware. We will have to wait for an official 4.2.2 release or rely on AOKP, AOSP, CM, etc.

That is typical after a device has been out for a year or so... It will slow down a bit.
I wouldn't worry too much, though. Our devices are going to get the 4.2.2 update... Things will pick up again.
I heard a leak may be exposed within the week. Rumor, of course... But from Samobile.com, they are typically a good source of information for stuff like that.

Yeah I about lost my mind trying to keep up with some of those comments haha.
It looks like its the I9300 for sure though, we haven't even had one test build for US variants and it makes sense, especially with all the features of the S4 that Samsung is porting over. Like it or not, they are always going to update Exynos devices before Qualcomm, especially when it comes to the S3 because of the relatively large disparity between the performance of the two versions.

[ROM][11/08][UNOFFICIAL][4.3] Carbon (semi)Nightly Builds

***NOTE**** I NO LONGER HAVE A TMOBILE NOTE 2 **** HOWEVER I WILL STILL OCCASIONALLY BUILD FOR IT **** LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU WANT ONE
Rules of the thread :
1. Be nice!
2. Be helpful!
3. No egos!
4. Someone asks a question that has already been asked a dozen times and you want to tell the n00b to go search? See rules 1+2(+3)!
Enjoy!
To be clear: I deserve ZERO credit in this. ALL I am doing is sharing my nightly builds that I make on my own.
I will make them occasionally for those crack-flashers out there who would like a nightly build on days when the official Carbon build fails for some reason.
ALL credit goes to the fantastic Carbon team and the work that they do.

I recommend Banks Gapps
I use TWRP. I recommend you do the same

If you're interested in what has changed, I recommend looking at these
http://review.carbon-rom.com/#/q/status:open+branch:kk,n,z
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/status:open+branch:cm-11.0,n,z
If you want to build on your own:
Do this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_mako
and replace this line: repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0 with this line:
repo init -u git://github.com/CarbonDev/android -b kk
and then anytime you see the word 'mako' replace it with 't0ltetmo'
(ps--I take no responsibility if you brick your phone, yada yada yada)

The first build is uploading now...should be don in a minute

As much as I love this ROM I noticed that volumes are significantly lower than other ROMs that I have tried.
Can anyone recommend a volume hack that works well with this ROM?

[ROM][4.3] OmniROM [PRE-ALPHA][UNOFFICIAL]

This is the pre-alpha thread of OmniROM for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (l900). More information can be found here.
This build is very bare bones at the moment. Don't let flashing this now turn you down from trying it again in the future, a lot of changes are coming soon. I would still consider this much more of a tester than a daily driver unless bare bones is your style. The rom is very smooth and fast though probably for that very same reason.
Source:
https://github.com/omnirom
https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/q/status:open,n,z
https://github.com/omnirom-slickrick
What doesn't work:
You tell me!
Installation method:
Wipe all if coming from another rom
Flash OmniROM
Flash GApps
Reboot
This rom does not come with root by default. Flash SuperSU in recovery if you want root!
Flash at your own risk! No one else is responsible if your device bursts into flames
To try out multiwindow, go to recents and long press an app. Click add to split view and repeat to add another app. Keep in mind its still buggy at the moment
Have fun and enjoy!

First
And I just flashed this. Liking it so far. I have been on TW for a while. May have to switch.

How do you flash an AT&T rom on a sprint phone? I'm assuming there are differences between the same rom on different devices

Just found this ROM and I'm going to try it out but I wanted to ask if it's still being develop on.

What it do Slick Rick going try this I've seen other omni roms well into development not asking for an update just curious of the progression of the rom. So far so good looking forward to more to come. :thumbup:
