[Q] New adventurer in Custom ROMs

Hello All!
I just want to clear some of my basic doubts before I flash ROMs in my GN2. So, here goes:
Is it right that custom ROMs donot have some of the Samsung proprietary features such as Air View, Smart Rotation, Smart Stay, etc.? and
Are kernels also flashed in the same way as the ROMs are i.e., .zip flash via Recovery?
Thanks!

Hi,
1.) It is possible.
2.) Yes

1) yes, cyanogenmod rom paranoid rom will Disable Samsung applications, but there are still so many roms, like Android revolution HD, Crash rom ( I'm currently using now) , just google " the best custom rom for galaxy note 2" , those roms keep all of Samsung features + many system tweaks. Just try them.
2) exactly yes
Here, I'd like to advice to back your stock rom before flashing a custom rom. This is very important to recover your phone in case something went wrong
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

ALL TW ROMS have these options s whereas Aosp don't
Yes the same way to flash the kernel

Your question has been answered already but I would like to explain a bit more for others who can be confused with all this.
There are 4 kinds of custom ROM available.
TW (stock Samsung)
AOSP( Pure Google Android) Won't have any of the Samsung features
AOKP( Based on AOSP but with some more features) Won't have any of the Samsung features but they got the S-pen working.
MIUI (Chinese version of Android with very different style than others) ?????? not sure
ROMs and Kernels comes in 2 formats. ZIP and TAR.
If it's a ZIP file, you flash it in recovery using CWM, TWRP or PHIL.
If it's a TAR file, you need to put your phone in Download Mode and flash it with ODIN.
Custom ROM' almost always come in ZIP(never seen one using TAR but it's not impossible)
Official Samsung ROM almost always come in TAR files
Hope it helps.

Hi!
You can find all the official Samsung stock ROMs on SamMobile, under the "Firmwares" section: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Note that those are the official firmwares, as delivered by your carrier. They are Odin-flashable -- you cannot use a custom recovery like CWM, TWRP of PhilZ to flash them -- and, as they are official, are not pre-rooted. If you choose to go this way, make sure you install a ROM at least the version you currently have on your phone; downgrading your bootloader may brick your device.

ty for your help I decided to install a official firmwares and root manually my device
i have a question
what is the best recovery mod for my model and what are the tweak for android exemple service useless
sorry for my english
ty for your help ^^

Hi!
For the recovery, take a look at the SGSIII Android Development forum to find download links and information about what feature they offer. The most popular recoveries for our phone model are TWRP, CWM and PhilZ Recovery. They all do a great job -- they differ on their method your taking backup, on their look-and-feel, on some more advanced features... For basic stuff, all of them do work. Make sure to read about them -- and yes, you can try one, and later switch to another one if you want to test them. (Keep in mind that backups may not be compatible between all of the recoveries, though.) Make sure you install the newest version of the recovery of your choice, as you may run into errors when flashing ROMs on a too-old recovery.
For the tweaks, I don't have any particular link to suggest to you. Do some research, especially on threads about reducing battery consumption -- they usually have some tips on services that can be deactivated.
If you are interested in going the custom ROMs way, custom ROMs often some already debloated. Packed with tons of features, but freed of carrier stuffs. Don't hesitate to look at the various custom ROMs available in the SGSIII Android Development forum, as well as the SGSIII Original Android Development forum.

For an i747m, I prefer Philz for the d2lte: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/
