[Q] Different stock ROM

Just picked up my new Note II this week and was wondering if wiped out my tmo stock ROM.. would I be able to load an international stock ROM of X language/country region?
What I am aiming for is basically a fresh clean installed ROM without the tmo bloatware and etc. Also, would my Note II have any wifi calling issues being on a non-tmo stock ROM?
Any advice is appreciated and thank you in advance.

There should be a stock debloated rom floating around in the android dev sections. I used it untill jedi x7 came out and roms were becoming stable.

Wifi calling only available in TMobile roms. You will lose wifi calling if you install international roms or any roms that is not base on TMobile.

Yeah, I was afraid of that.. losing wifi calling. My area lacks coverage so I depend on wifi calling.
Hm.. is there a way to extract the wifi calling feature from stock tmo roms and install with other custom or international roms.

Well, in the sense that anything could be possible... sure. But it would be a huge undertaking much more involved then an extract-and-install scenario. My gut says the juice isn't worth the squeeze on that one... but I've been wrong on such things before so don't take my word for it.

My current ROM is Tweaked 1.5 I can confirm that Wi-fi calling works.
Should you choose to flash this rom (Tweaked 1.5) In Aroma installer, make sure you tick "install all t-mobile apps"

Fwiw - installing all t-mobile apps is not necessary for wifi calling to work on tweaked.

TMO Wifi calling

So if I were to move away from Twiz, and try say PACman rom, could I still get the WIFI calling app? I kinda need it while at home because I get little service and it's the main reason I switched to TMO

Nope, wifi calling only works with stock tmobile touchwiz roms. :thumbup:

So any rom with Twiz?
Darn, kind of a shame. Is it in the framework or something? No way to port it over??? I know it's early since the release, but Would you know of a JB based Twiz rom that's debloated and running stable/fast? I'm still getting used to all the new ROM options. (Back in my EVO days we only had Sense and AOSP.)

It's not too bad. Pretty nice. But how can I reduce the text size for notification bar and turn off vol keys wake?

Think so. It's as fast or faster with aggressive memory mgmt going on. Very smooth jb4.1.2 rom. Which was the last rom tmo included wifi-calling in.
As far as I've been able to find out, tmo has used two different implementations of wifi-calling. The first was a spaghetti code type of deal that still drives developers nuts; the second was a very good modularized implementation done by a very knowledgeable contractor based on open source code.
By the time the contract was up, the developer had developed the code so far beyond the available open source code, they felt justified in charging for it's use and further development. TMo balked at this saying they're not making enough money to justify that.
So, the current situation is that the nice modular code cannot be further developed without royalties and the spaghetti code is something that developers aren't willing to deal with.
Mind you, all this is off the top of my memory from internet searching on the topic. I'm sure I've got some of the details wrong; but, that should give you the gist of the situation.
If you search the Whitehawxx (WH) jb-aokp thread for: wifi-calling; you'll find his position on the matter. In case you or any one else is reading this post don't know, WH is a well respected, knowlegeable, dilligent developer whom we're lucky to have working on hercules. His opinion is highly regarded by many.
YMMV, good luck to you sir. :cyclops:

What are some custom ROMS that support WiFi calling?

In using Infamous right now and am really happy with it except for a few hangups here and there, but I was wondering if there was any other yet that I should know of.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

T-Mobile feature only. I have seen no other carrier incorporate that into their roms.
You would have run TMO carriers roms to get that feature, and I think all have that feature.

Right, and I was asking in terms of custom ROMS that integrate that feature. As in designed for the t-mo model specifically since I am a T mobile customer the ROM I'm using now, .Infamous, supports WiFi calling. I was just wondering if there's others, or maybe a way to add it into other ROMS.

As far as CM and other's of that nature, not a single one. Also, don't expect it to be incorporated into non-TouchWiz ROMs any time soon.

Sprint LG G2 no love?

So Ive never had a device (even on sprint) that has no development to be seen within a weeks period of time. I believe the Root we have is from other devices and the CM 10.2 build that was posted was something that was supposed have never seen the light of day and was broken. I totally love this phone but I was really excited for the development aspects since its basically nexus 5 with a different shell. Anyone else with the sprint variant a little worried by the lack of interest?

I'm on the same boat, many probably are.
This phone is still solid stock.. all I really need is tethering... patiently waiting

Those other carrier variants have been out way longer than ours. We've only had ours for 1 week now. Give it a bit more time?

Development is under way. There are 2 devs working on a CM 10.2 ROM right now and another working on a version of CleanROM for us. Its going to take some time and the phone hasn't been out for a week yet.
Also the CM 10.2 ROM was removed because the build was not tested and verified by the dev to be working and they removed the links to it in case it caused a potential brick to the phone. People who downloaded the ROM say it had GPS lock and rotation issues so you don't want to download the ROM anyways. In fact they saved you the hassle of reverting back to stock or a nandroid backup. Read the last few posts in that CM 10.2 thread to get a sense of the situation.
I am not worried at all about the "lack of interest" in this phone. You have to remember that not all the potential devs have received the phone yet such as garwynn who probably just received the phone today. Lets give the potential devs some time to come out with new ROMs and other mods. There are enough ways currently to mod the current stock ROM anyways through Xposed and other mods like (increase volume).

Its only been a week. Our device was rootable even before Sprint released it. I'm not worried. For now I've been using Greenify + Titanium Backup to keep my phone in battery/performance BEAST MODE.

Install G2 xposed and you'll see you can do a lot of the customization yourself. There's also an xposed kitkat theme in the theme's section by ock. The device is already fast and ignoring aosp roms, you can customize the stock rom to your liking.

I ain't skeeerid

I guess I didn't think about the fact that the other variants had been out for a few months already, but I really wasn't trying to comparing them. I was just noticing that compared to devices I've had in the past (even the SGS II which I hated lol) had some things pop up pretty quickly. Also make sure that no one takes this as me complaining, just thinking out loud here.
And as to the xposed stuff, Im atually just interested in some slimed down stock roms and AOSP, but thanks for making sure I knew about it
PS: Ive also had this phone for close to a month so Im probably feeling that rom flash bug harder than most XD

Hey ite only been out 4 a week man

Here's where the Rom is located:

So far I've rooted, download rom, installed twrp, tried flashing it but it booted stuck on carbon logo. It may be because I don't have the gapps file.
Any one with a link to 4.3.1 gapps?

Just rooted SG3.. which ROM?

Hello, all. I just rooted my Samsung Galaxy S3 with Odin, and I have 4.3
My next step is to remove bloatware. But I noticed that I can also get a Custom Rom; Which ROM supports wifi calling? I live in an apartment and the signal is crappy here so it must have it.
If you have any recommendations please let me know. Thanks!

I just tried S3Rx this week. It's got a great AROMA installer and lots of tweaks on top of 4.3

I would also recommend S3Rx :good: It has WiFi calling like you are looking for, it's stable, fast, has lots of features, and bloat removed. You can choose which features/apps/hacks you want installed when you are setting up in Aroma.

Wifi calling works for sure? I'm not seeing that feature listed on the 1st page?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2326763

Although I cannot confirm it works (I do not have T Mobile service) I can confirm it is there. It should be fully functional as it is based off the official T Mobile update.

Wi-Fi calling works. I use it too

As XDA is not a support site, and users are expected to do their own independant research to make the determination as to what rom is best for them, this thread is closed.
Best is truly up to the user. Read, learn and interact with ROM developers about their products in the development threads.
