Hi
I am having a USC NOTE II
As the development is 0 here at XDA for USC version, I am thinking about using a
VERIZON version of latest stock debloated, deodexed, zipaligned, with initd tweaks , and other optimizations.
We can use VZN or sprint Roms on our NOTE II by flashing a Converter after the ROM flash.
plz suggest the ROM based on the latest Build
( will also post at the sprint forums as well )
god bless
I would suggest reading up on the options in the Development section...there are a ton of choices. You can choose between Touchwiz based or AOSP roms depending on your needs (and how much you like the Touchwiz features). I personally have stuck with TW and have been using Beans from Build 6 on. Jedi looks interesting so I may try that one soon. If you the the latest build (4.2.2) check out the original android dev section, but read carefully as I think there are still some issues with bluetooth on that build and it takes some work to come back to 4.1.1.
Scott just released CleanROM ACE 4.6 a few hours ago. It's stock, optimized, debloated, and the latest. There you go lol
Thanks guys.
About TW well I didn't like it one bit till jb arrived and really now I just love the touch wiz interface more than anything at all. Its so refreshing and so good looking in my view ( no offence to no intended )
Chkin the latest build now DROIDONROIDS

Yeah, TouchWiz on ICS and even Gingerbread sucked some donkey you-know-what. Just you wait till we get a leaked 4.2.2 build!
Edit: I'm going to flash CleanROM ACE 4.6 too.
Guyz is there any other Rom based on latest Stock version and is totally debloated, stock looking and optimized for netter performance and battery.?

This. I'm over aosp roms. Beans TW rom is the best imho for this phone. Sure I love other roms like Eclipse by Scott/Nitro but for the stock debloated feature full rom....beans is where it's at.

I suggest beans too, but it's not really stock looking, it looks more like aosp, with full stock functionality. I prefer it to stock but just not sure if that's what you're looking for. The only thing with using Scott's(Scrolser's) latest ROM's is they are based on the international(which may be ok with you) but people have issues getting GPS without flashing a stock/VZW and getting a lock first. VRALL4 is the latest stock VZW base. I'd suggest maybe using the Clean ROM VZW edition.

Hi. first of all I just want to say that I'm a big admirer of XDA forums I've been following the forums for quite some time on various phones but I'm not very active in posts / replies due to my inexperience.
I'm sick of AT&T taking forever to give us ICS and I'm not willing to wait just to get a whole bunch of bloatware and the same old touchwiz. I've come across two good roms: Onlyone and Objection. I'm kind of leaning towards Objection because It's giving me two UI options: Android 4 and the new Touchwiz, but from the replies I got the impression that Onlyone is more stable. Are there any ROMS that use the official ICS code released by Samsung or not yet?
Here are my main concerns: battery life, ROM stability and speed, and of course the good additions like updated touchwiz, S-voice, etc.
Try them all and see which you like best. Nobody can tell you which is best, because that is purely opinion based. There aren't that many, so just learn how to use titanium backup so switching between roms doesn't take too long.

Are you running tablet or phone mode?
If you prefer the unmodified, pure Android experience that you would get on a Nexus device, you can come close with a CyanogenMod based ROM. These are my personal favorites as they are practically bloat-free and don't have any carrier/manufacturer customizations. The downside on the Note is that there is no S-Note/S-Memo. Hopefully the CM devs will get these apps to work eventually, but the S-Pen does work.
If you like the TouchWiz interface then try one of the TW/ICS leak based ROMs such as OnlyOne. That was the first ICS ROM I tried and I liked it, but overall I prefer CM9.
you can try those ROMs from this guy - flappjaxxx. They are the unofficial CM9 ROM and UCLE2 stock-base ROM. They are really solid, stable, daily drivers and supported well by the awesome developer. These roms get very good comments from XDA-users.
I've tried every single rom.
for CM9- I'd use Mesosphere the rest were pretty unstable.
For Ucle2 + S-pen functionality i'd use FJ's Build. Onlyone was laggy for me.

This is like asking what beer should I drink or who is the best Golden Girl. Everyone is going to have different answers and you really need to try some and find your favorite.
That being said I am a big fan of flappjaxxx's UCLE2 rom.
My recommendation is to go with the Unofficial build of CM9 by h0tw1r3.
Nothing beats the cleanliness of AOSP, and the added features that Cyanogen throws in are well worth it.
I have been running it since he released the first build and it is extremely stable. And thanks to CalcProgrammer1, it was just updated and we may even see nightly builds.
Thanks Calc!

Hey everyone, I just purchased a new note from Telus in Canada and I love it. It was quite a substantial upgrade from my old x10. With the x10 it was almost a MUST to use a custom rom to get it working at a satisfying speed. I'm just wondering if thats the case with the Note, is there a substantial increase in performance with the roms? I dont mind touchwiz but I think i would prefer stock android or CM. All of this was pretty easy to do with the x10 but i'm feeling pretty lost right now, any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Its been almost 3 weeks with my note and I did not notice any lags I just love it the way it is.........but I did rooted it asap for apps like s voice and s3 widgets etc ....i might flash the 1st jellybean rom which comes....lol .....
If its ics ...its good...
If its on gingerbread ....then update it ota ...
Enjoy!

cyanogen is working on jelly bean for the note. as soon as it's ready you can be sure it will be at the top of the development section.
also if you're already rooted then there is no reason not to flash a custom rom. it takes 5 minutes tops and it removes all the carrier bloat and adds some goodies and tweaks we all love. try out team perfections latest release if you like the stock feel but without the garbage.

Psssssst. There's a new public beta. Click here
Last time on ShishirROM.............After nearly nine months of ShishirROM, there has to be something else. Something better. For weeks I've listened to user input and did a lot of research and development myself. Aberration is the new project I'm working on, and even before it has been out, I can confidently say every user loved it and never wanted to change away. This ROM really does have something for every single person. Based on XWLPM -- One of the earlier Samsung 4.0.4 ROMS, this ROM is smooth out of the box. While Jellybean re-defined smooth, out of every ROM my users have tried, this one is the one that came the closest. It may have something to do with the odexed nature of the ROM, or it may have something to do with the intense resource editing and cleaning to make every app as light as possible. Either way, this ROM is blazing... but not at the expense of comfort. The theme this time was inspired not by some futuristic phone... But by the original Gingerbread Galaxy S2. It's sort of like a combination of the Galaxy S3, Galaxy S2, and the Galaxy Nexus. It's not anything I've personally seen before. The Aberration Settings app finally allows you to change Settings you could never touch on Stock Samsung firmware. Things like the Notification widgets, mDNIe modes, font sizes, etc. And the app is in full development and will be updated as time goes on. What is Aberration exactly? It's the next step of the best ROM for the i777... and soon the i9100.
Features:
ODEXED (for smoothness)
Based on XWLPM
Siyah
Aberration Settings app
Lidroid 14 Quick Toggles
AROMA Installer
Google Now
Lux Auto-brightness
Opensource Sensors library (more accurate and faster)
Holo/Jellybean inspired styling
Apex/GS3/GS2 Launcher
GS2/GS3 Music application
Easy-Update
Samsung Dive
Complete development cycle
Directions:
Install i777 zip in CWM
Wipe Data
Configure installation & install ROM
Reboot
Set-up ROM, download apps, etc.
Reboot again to settle everything

I don't think Siyah supports cross-version dual booting yet. If it breaks then don't blame me lol. This release doesn't have flash built-in, but I can make it an option in the Settings app soon.

Pick the i777. The downloads are for the model of the phone you have. Just match the pictures lol
More Information: The ROMs are the same. Flashing the i9100 version will mess some things up -- more than hellraising it can fix because we don't have a proper 4.0.4 kernel yet. But the two versions are the same beneath the skin, I promise

I noticed google now listed in features. I'm curious how it's working on this rom/how you implemented it? I tried it via the apk in the android apps and games section when I was on AOKP. While it did work well, not all cards worked and the voice search was not as refined as it is on JB.
I'm thinking of jumping to the CM nightles, but the new LOTK Rom seems pretty sweet as well.
I've also been thinking of trying out the cleaned up TW ROMs (cleanROM and Hyperdrive). Not really sure what Hyperdrive is, though....
so, yeah. What ROM are you using? Pros, cons?
Running the Jellybeans rom . Everything is running great no issues at all.
I'm running Hyperdrive. Love this ROM!!! I'm also running it on my Note 10.1 and ran it on my SG3. Super smooth and lots of customization options.
Hyperdrive here too.......lots of options to tweak and runs smooth as buttah!
Tried a couple
I tried CM Nightly and AOKP yesterday (both based on stock Android). Both seemed like they were getting close to good daily driver. I'm looking for something based on stock. Both seemed to have GPS issues and AOKP had camera issues as well. I really liked the features on AOKP. (I used to run AOKP on previous phone a GNex). I'll be trying AOKP again soon to see if some of those issues are fixed.
What I really want (may be fantasy) is a stock (or at least stock looking) rom that still has IR blaster, Pedometer & maybe some of the camera features. I also want (again, maybe fantasy) a rom that allows super easy transfer of apps and app data to SD. Right now it looks complicated to transfer and maintain apps on the SD card, especially if one flashes new roms often.

Which rom is this? does it require anothr kernel?
roms
I have run gruesome, hyper drive and beans. ( I think I am an addict. ) they are all really cool. I love the one button kill which is in both gruesome and hyperdrive. beans is also very nice with full blocking mode enabled in one of the framework mods . beans lacks the one button kill though. I have run the faux kernel against all of these a recommend that. I would like to try clean rom next then some of the original development. I love some of the TW fluff. Having said all that, I tried the gruesome wolf rom first so it had to be changed to try more. but I would have probably stuck with it. it was super stable and I am new at this but the thread is super quiet. my money is that their release three will be dope.

I am also using 'Beans' Rom. Fantastic so far. Flashed it with ktoonsez' kernel and it flies. No issues at all. I like to put Nova launcher on it to get that stock vanilla feel while still having the features and functionality of TouchWiz. Dev did a great job debloating the rom as well. All the useless apps Samsung put on the phone (amazon, trip advisor, etc) were removed. Also the ongoing wifi notification icon is gone which really bugged the crap out of me. All in all, best rom on my GS4 so far. Highly recommended. :good::highfive:

I'm watching that thread, but waiting for it to get out a few releases first. I've seen PA in various other areas of XDA (for use on other phones) so I'm confident that its going to be a great ROM even though I haven't personally used it.
With that being said, right now I'm on rooted stock but once Hyperdrive RC3 is released I'll be flashing that (still need to figure out what kernel is recommended)!
I'm currently using CM. It's good so far. I'd be using Hyperdrive, but I get stuck on boot (Samsung Galaxy S4 logo, no padlock). I'm happy with it though, it's a great rom. Spend a day with each rom that seems interesting to you before you make up your mind on what you want to use.
CM is the only ROM I run. I love it.

I'd love me some somewhat-stock Android (CM or AOKP) but I just love some of the TouchWiz features too much. I don't use any of the gimmicky stuff, but the camera really has some nice things that stock can't even come close to touching.
Hyperdrive ROM for me
Have been using GPE 5.0.1 by Danvdh and the camera sucks its laggy and pictures are blurry. Also i have audio stuttering while listening to music from my SD card. Since nobody else had the issue never complained about it. So i am thinking to go back to Touch Wiz. What are my options? I am on MDK unlocked bootloader. Looking for something stable without any worries.

The BEST of anything is something that is opinion and that you need to decide for yourself. A ROM might have a buggy camera but a user does not notice because they never use the camera....so the BEST thing to do is to back up and try a few and find what is BEST for you..of course after reading the development thread to see if there are issues and fixes listed in the thread.
Happy Flashing!
