Hey, so Im building a rom, but I took my code from my tablet and it is running KitKat (4.4.2 I think) and I want to build a rom running Lollipop, is this possible? Thanks in advance
Cheers! - Ket
Yes you can normally port a ROM from another Samsung tablet that has lollipop. It won't be easy though. You will have to make a few modifications to get it to boot correctly.
I think if you look up Porting a ROM on XDA you will find the information you need to get started.

Alright, so I understand that, but the thing is I am making my own ROM and I dont want a stock Lollipop, I want a custom Rom with lollipop, any ideas?

You can port the ROM first, then customize it. Or you can build a ROM straight from AOSP source.

No custom rom is completely stable.
So stay on stock rom.
If you want faster rom than you may use bloatware free rooted stock rom.
Hope i helped

For a bloatware Free stock rom you need to work on the stock rom yourself..
You can follow this guide by chotu222
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160671 for rooting your grand and after you get root access you can remove bloatwares easily .
What do you mean by spy app, i dont get it.

Why do you need a 100% stable rom anyway? I suggest you try one of the kitkat roms.... Which are ALMOST stable and have LOADS AND LOADS of features not available on any stock rom... Yeah maybe one two bugs but then a rooted phone can't be 100% perfect right?

I'm looking to buy a 2014 10.1 and something caught my attention and was curious about it. I have a s4 running 4.3 android and thanks to Knox I cant put a custom recovery on it and have to use safestrap to use a custom rom essential wasting much space. Is that a issue with the tablet as well. Or is twrp/clockwork able to be used?

Flashing a custom recovery will trigger knox. And I havent heard of any safestrap solution for Note 10.1 2014.

Of course you can flash a custom recovery and custom roms, but it cant be done without triggering knox. Flashing the rom itself is harmless, its the flashing of a custom recovery that triggers knox. So if you can live with that just go a head and flash, if not.... then dont.
Good luck
Ok thanks for the clarification the knox part is still kind of new to me. Tw is a little heavy just wanted to make sure I had the option to run an aosp rom down the line.

no problem, just glad to help. You can flash an AOSP rom, as soon as we get one.
I need to know what the difference is between 4.3 and 4.4. How do i upgrade to it? Do i need to do it to run kitkat roms?
I have flashed about 4 kitkat roms and they all have issues. Like freezing and rebooting. I think maybe because i am on the 4.3 bootloader.
I just dont fully understand this stuff yet.

So i found this post but i still dont fully understand it. So if i flash a kitkat rom and a new kernel does that automatically upgrade my bootloader to 4.4? Currently out of all the kitkat kernels only 2 of them will boot my phone all others i just get stuck on the samsung logo. Including the stock kernel.

Please search the Development thread. TEKHD had made a very easy step-by-step guide on how to upgrade.

Yes you can. If you are rooted you can flash any Knox free ROM. That includes 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 ROM. I'm currently on Insane KitKat its a great ROM.

Thank you this s4 rooting is easy enough but the ROMs are kinda different than the s3s were to me, or maybe its because when I had the s3 I only ran TPR.

You mean TWRP?I was a long time user of the S3 myself. I've stayed away from Aosp because for some reason it breaks functions when I go back to Touchwiz. It did very well for me when I used HTC devices but not Samsung.

No I meant TPR as in a ROM called The Peoples ROM, my GS3 was on Sprint and being new to rooting anything that advanced TPR was the closest to stock with no sprint bloat ware in it,
I have since learned how to add and remove what I want to make a ROM customized to my personal needs and wants. Is, I like adding Kii keyboard into a ROM before flashing, since I love it so much I bought it

Is there a way to downgrade? I read somewhere that just flashing the firmware won't work. Has anyone done it?

I've done it. I reverted from IronRom lollipop to Ironrom KitKat with no issues. No need for odin as the lollipop bootloader can run KitKat fine.
Just find a custom roms for KitKat and flash it through twrp
