Which rom have for note 2 with the s pen features? I was thinking about slimkit 4.4.4? does that come with S pen? or Ditto Note 4 ? Byway is Ditto Note 4 support Note 2 from T-Mob?
Only Touch Wiz ROMs have the native s pen apps. AOSP based ROM options can use the s pen but can't run the Samsung TW apps.

How do you know it is a touchwiz ROM?

It will say so in the description. It will also typically show TW or the last 3 characters of the version number in the thread title.

Hi,
I just traded my Nexus 4 for a Note II and I was so quick to flash a custom ROM I never bothered to use the stock one that came with the phone. Yesterday I thought I'd try out the S-Pen in some drawing apps I downloaded but it was only working as a stylus not as a Wacom pen. I would like to know if there is a way to do the following:
Install Samsung App's on custom ROM?
Install S-Pen on custom ROM so it works as a Wacom pen and not a stylus?
Install S-Note?
Mod/Add-on for Note II custom ROMs for the S-Pen that I may have over looked?
Custom ROM's with support for Samsung Apps and S-Pen/S-Note?
Are there any ROM's that offer the best of both worlds (S-Pen/Samsung Apps/S-Note support on a custom ROM with Theme Chooser/notification background)?
Personally I've been using AOKP (or PACMAN/ROOT-BOX) ROM's for about 1.5 years and really like them and all the options and customization they provided on my Nexus phones but when it comes to the Note II those ROM's might have taken away more fuctionality than they give.
Please let me know your thoughts. Is the S-Pen is worth giving up custom ROM's or if its more of a gimmick. Are you running Stock ROM or Custom?
It will not work with AOKP roms. It will work with custom roms based off stock such as CleanRom. If you want to use AOKP, there are apps that support the s Pen in the PlayStore.

Any recommendations for ROM's based on stock/TW?
there are several of them in the development section; check them out and try them to see which one YOU like the best..

Give CleanRom a shot first. That was my first one I flashed and loved it. I couldnt tell the difference between the regular one or the AT&T exclusive one. Both are really good.
I am currently using JEDI cuz it has some MODS that I like. Skynote is a good one to try too.
What is the best alternative for snote?
I had the same problem as the title. I wanted to root my phone to enjoy it to the peaks. But the problem is the spen. I love the spen and iam so much used to snote that iam feeing bad to change the rom. For that reason i did a root but not a rom change. Please do suggest me any applications that work same like snote. And one more thing.. Will spen and snote work on cm? Any version of cm
S-Note won't work but the S-Pen will.
I posted this thread in the themes and apps section. It's a list of mods, apps ,and touchwiz like features you can install on your Cm/aosp ROMs.

I would like to flash custom rom due to the lag of stock rom, but I find CM10 does not support s-pen feature. I like S-PEN. S-pen is the one of reason that why I choose note 2 instead of HTC One.
Many thanks

Are you serious? All Samsung ROMS and MiUi have S Pen support. It isn't that hard to find that out.

Basically, any rom that has touchwiz, which is the creation of Samsung, will have S-pen features.
No version of CM has these features, although you can still use the S-Pen for plain touch. Works very well with Swiftkey Flow for example.
Also, you can find alternatives to the S-Pen apps like note and the like in the Play Store.
You have to choose between CM or Samsung roms, or you can get a Samsung rom that looks like CM. They all exist here in the N7100 forum.
Happy flashing!
Any 4.1.2 ROMS (which are touchwiz based) should support all Samsung stuff.

Heres a rom
Try dn4 or dn3 rom.
They are good and I had been using it for quite a long time and its stable. Great rom.
Dn4 is for n7100 and n7105
Dn3 is for n7105
I had tried Dn4 but I had problem with the carrier so I had used Dn3. If you want to avoid troubles, backup first then install it.
Google Dn4 or Dn3 to find the rom. I cant paste links currently

You may want to consider S3Rx or either the full or "light" versions of Dandroid, which uses S3Rx as a base. In either case, you'd flash the Note 2 keyboard separately.
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.

well, I doubt that Samsung will update Note 8 to Android 4.3
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 ?

I think Samsung will update the Note 8 to Android 4.4.
I'm not a developer, so I can't say if anyone will be able to port anything from other devices.

because, even we get 4.4.x on the note 8, I don't believe Samsung will add this kind of new features on it.

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

IIRC, there's talk of that in the thread. I don't want to get falsely get your hopes up, so check it out for yourself. It's really an awesome ROM. I flashed it a bit after getting an actual Note 3, which inflicted my Note 8's S-Pen with some raging jealousy... this ROM fixed that

There's a few in the development section. All of them are pretty good. Just see what works for you.
I've been running the CyanogenMod 12.1 for several months now and loving it. I'm using Nova Launcher with it, as well as SPenCommand to keep most of my SPen functionality. Works great. I like it MUCH better than TouchWiz.
