So the Galaxy Note 8.0 is currently stuck on Android v4.2.x, which sucks if you want to keep the TouchWiz features.
The Note 3 and Note 10.1 2014 Edition have both been released with more updated software, and an updated TouchWiz - I'm really curious as to why we haven't seen any ports of those ROMs over to the Note 8.0. I tried searching, and came up empty. Anyone?

Using the rom porter app from here on xda, I ported the note 10.1 2014, but have been afraid to try it as I have only had my note 8 a month, and had a hard time with gaining root.

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.

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

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 ?

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.

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..

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.

Hi,
I have the Note 10.1 2014 edition in addition to the Note 8.0
The "Pen Apps" feature on the Note 10.1 2014 Ed. is very nice. It allows you to draw a window and open the app in that window (some advanced type of multiwindow)
IS it anyhow possible to integrate this feature on any Note.8 rom ?
Thanks.

Touchwiz is not an open-source project. This features might require newer firmware and/or framework to work and device specifications might be a problem. We need to wait Samsung to release new update.

I don't agree.
I know that touchwiz is not open source. But there are devs who can port multiwindow from some Galaxy devices to other Galaxy devices (which do not have MW by default)

These features appeared for the first time in the Note 3, 4.3 firmware. Some developers ported them to the Note 2, but they could do it because the Note 2 received a firmware update to 4.3.
Our Note 8 has only Android 4.2; I'm afraid we have to wait for a firmware update before some developer can port new features to our device.

but if they ever do then these features might come with the update.
In any case would it be possible to port it to Note 8 with Android 4.2 ?

Use ykkfive's rom. It's a port of the GN3's version of Android 4.3, with features like Pen Window and Air Command intact. I personally recommend downloading the app "Multiwindow Plus" as well, as it allows you to have 4 apps open side by side. The rom only works with the N5110 as of now, but the developer is porting it to the N5100. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642647

Since you don`t have the knowledge don`t think about it as it needs porting with lots of experience how this can be done, just wait, KitKat should be on the corner for our device
both firmwares are basicly the same ... on note pro you have "magizine ux" ... I dotn know why this even has a name ... its just flipboard which does not work properly as a widget... and you have hancom office ... thats it... well and 4 multiwindow capaility ... but that wouldnt make sense on the smaller note 10.1 ...
The performance on the kit Kat Rom is reportedly a lot better. That would be a major reason to look forward to the update.

but i have bad experince in this waye ((flashing kernerl device to different device)) i accidentaly flash note2 n7100 kernel to galaxys3 i9300 and touchscreen digitizer completly dead but note 2 n7100 and s3 9300 completly is different devices
but note 12.2 just scaled from note 10.1 and no more
Does anyone know if the Android 4.4.2 update will include the new s note app.

After using the new s note app on my note 2 I think I may be looking at this the wrong way round. Does anyone know if you can install the old s note app on the note 3, and also does anyone know where to get a copy of the old s note PC program.
I know Samsung did one but whenever I click the link to the store I am told it is not available for my machine.
Surely it would work to some extent on a pc with touchscreen but no pen.
