[Q] Touchwiz Based ROM to CM 11 / AOSP / AOKP Roms Flashing Question - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi so im currently using DN3 Rom the 4.4.2 Based one and I enjoyed it. But just now since the stock camera was launched on the playstore I want my device to become cm11 or aosp based rom. So this is my question if I flash aosp rom isnt there any problems at all? And if I succeed to flash aosp could I get back to dn3 again with the same procedure or do I need to flash everything via odin? Thanks

[Q] Stock ICS to Custom 4.1 ROMS

Hey guyz got a very noobish question, didnt find any answer any other place...so im posting my question here...
Could i just flash any custom 4.1 roms like miui, aokp, cm10 and im on stock ics, rooted witch franco's kernal..? is it possible or i must have stock jelly bean inorder to flash these roms..?
Provided you have unlocked your bootloader. You can flash custom jelly bean ROMs from stock ICS..
I have a Sony Ericsson Neo V. I flashed Polish Blood Aosp ROM from Stock Sony ICS without any issues.
You can flash any version you want. It makes no difference what you currently run. Just wipe like normal and flash your day sired ROM.
As long as you wipe cache and data everything fine!

You do not need stock jellybean in order to flash a custom 4.1 rom like miui, aokp or cm10. All you have to do is pick a rom you like, make a backup, wipe the stock ics on your phone, flash the custom 4.1 rom/gapps of your choice, then restore your apps.

This is a custom ROM.
So what I mean is: this is NOT official ROM from Samsung, but it is built from a firmware like that (stock based ROM), so You will have all the Spen features and Sasmung stuff. It is rooted, You probably trigger your knox flag and Your warranty will be void.
Non stock based ROMS are others that don't support all samsung apps, like Snote, Multiwindow etc. These are for example: Cyanogenmod, AOSP, AOKP, AOSB, Paranoid Android, MIUI and others.

To make it easier for you to understand ,the ROM link you provided is "stock" samsung ROM but the difference is it's "pre rooted" (but you still got to update to latest SuperSu by chainfire for the apps to detect it's root) and it's dedoxed. It has NO note 3 or Samsung S5 modded apps ,if you want to a ROM with note 3/s5 apps go for DN3RC2 or Jellykat v5 both are based on leaked NC2 firmware (the official one is ND3). As you said you are on stock 4.3 so there's a guide made available by a fellow xda user @smeet.somaiya where you don't need to root or worry about deknoxing ,link to his Thread.Follow his guide if you don't want to root your phone yet

Yes, mostly any custom ROM is better than a stock ROM.
It's faster and it has mostly more features, for example You may have Note 3 and S5 features (however not all of them if our phones don't have a proper hardware for it, f.e. fingerprint scanner etc.)
To install other ROM it's mostly recommended to do a full wipe, as upgrading may result in many "Force closes" or the phone won't even boot.
So always wipe data, dalvik cache when changing to other ROM.

tnx
can you tell me guys what custom rom is better than all custom roms ? DN3 or jellycat ? (on android 4.4)
it's a LEAKED stock rom before official French 4.4.2 release.
it does have more tweaked function but is a customized one. it also doesn't work like DrKetan_MultiTool as it doesn't provide other fumctionality other than to flash the rom.

Somehow the DN3 couldn't boot at my note. From stock based ROMs I used only AirCommand ROM and it was working pretty well, however I personally prefer CM-based ROMs, they are much faster and support ART.

[Q][Acro S] going from 4.4. back to 4.1

Hi,
I'm now on Kitkat 4.4 and want to go back to a 4.1 customs rom.
do I have to flash stock rom with flashtools or is it possible to install the zip with recovery?

Flash stock based kernel with recovery using fastboot and then you can flash the custom 4.1 rom from recovery.

Flash stock .96. For rooting flash .211 kernel, and then run Doomlords script and then install CWM before flashing the .96 kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2417672
For .96 kernel and .211 kernel Google is your friend.
My advise is for stock 4.1.2.
God luck!
May I ask why you want to go back to Jellybean? Have you tried Mekoo? I have flashed Jelly bean more than I can count (I can only count to ten ) after trying KitKat, but after I tried Mokee I have been satisfied.
I tried mokee, cm11, beanstalk. They are really good... In mokee is a little bit to much in chineese... But in all Roms i Miss the FM radio... So i think i will go back
I don't notice any Chinese in Mokee beside in TWRP, but with Google that's manageable. Running the latest 4.4.2 version. Will install 4.4.3 Nightly today. I don't use the FM cause my favorite channel is only on DAB.

[Q] Noob questions about Kernel

Hi there!!
I'm about to unlock my phone bootloader, and i wanna know some things about kernels:
Can i "downgrade" the kernel. For example from a KitKat kernel to Stock (Jelly Bean 4.1) Kernel?
Can i use a KitKat Kernel in a Jelly Bean Rom?
If Kernel have CWM recovery, it still working even if ROM stop working?
I know that in Linux you can update to the lastest kernel in same distro and don't matters, but Android is "special"...
Now i've CWM for locked bootloader and it is installed in ROM instead in Kernel, then if ROM is damaged CWM can stop working. I think if is included in Kernel then don't matters what happen in ROM, but I want to be sure.
Thanks!!
I'm not really sure about question 1 & 2.
Answer for question 3:
Yes, the recovery should work even the rom is messed up.
Thats when bootloop happen .

1- Each rom has a specific kernel so if you want to install a kitkat kernel you can't install a JB rom so if you want to downgrade you can only downgrade the version of the kernel !!!
2-As I mentioned above you can't
3-Yes because the kernel is not damaged in your case so CWM will be working with no issues !!!
Thanks!!!, for now i'm still using a JB kernel with JB Rom. Waiting for a full working port of xLoud

If You are going to unlock Your bootloader in future, do remember to backup Your TA partition.

[Q] How will I flash a Kitkat Custom Rom?

Hi. I just want to clear things up. I'm running on stock KitKat Rom on my F240k. Question is, regarding custom roms, can I flash a custom rom that's based on JB without having to flash a stock JB on my device? or vice versa? Thanks in advance.

You can flash ANY custom rom as long as you perform a full wipe (including system partition format) before installing the final custom rom you want. That is at least in my experience.
