Yes s-pen is TW only, any aosp rom you will lose features.

All the tw based. Just look in development (not original development) almost all of them do.

Beans is TW based but AOSP themed, you get the best of both.

AOSP and S-PEN

What do I have to do to get rid of the Samsung and att crap. Keep spen features and benefits and get tweaks from aokp and other various roms. The only reason I stay stock is because hybrid is messy and aosp loses all the features I bought the phone for. Any takers? I know its complicated if not impossible but can you explain what would need to happen here?

Not to sound like a butt. But be pateint there are a lot of great devs and app biilders working on getting spen working properly on aosp and cm9. But in the mean time there are plenty of great roms that are debloated att crap gone and have all the spen features working.just need to read the op and pick which one sounds like what you want Flappjaxxx has a great rom out its le2 based debloated and spen features work.

I was under the impression that Samsung had released source for.the spen so im wondering when we will see custom shortcuts for the spen and the ability to use like stock Rom on aosp. Im just wondering if the day will ever come.

The S-Pen app has nothing to with having source or not. The problem is those apps from the stock rom need the TouchWiz framework.
So we would need to rebuild framework compatible cross launcher for aosp?

[Q] could really use help deciding

I have the verizon Note 2.I'm wondering with the new android 4.2.2 is worth having over what comes with the verizon Note 2.If is worth having, can anyone point me in the direction with it, and pretty much all the programs that come with the Note 2 just with out all of the verizon bloatware. If its not worth having can some one point me to one with the android version that comes with the note 2, but same thing as before with all the samsung apps, just minus the verizon bloatware.I'm not new to loading custom roms, just new to the note 2.Thanks for your time.
No one??? I would truely appreciate and and all opinions/info..... Thank you in advance.....
4.2.2 is AOSP so it has non of the note apps or features. So if you want those stick with the tw based ROM.

Exactly what kintwofan said. If you do end up staying with Touchwiz, the general consensus seems to be with the Beansrom. I have been running it since I unlocked/rooted, and it has been wonderful.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032447
yup beans is best...touchwiz features ith aosp themeing, the best of both worlds!
Well I prefer Eclipse because it's more blacked out and with the AOSP phone/contacts/clock/mms and more. But beans is amazing and more stable at this point based off what I've read.
OP this is where you need to just read a bunch of ROMs decide what you want, make a back up and check them out.

Custom rom that is closest to stock Samsung jelly bean?

I'm getting tired of waiting for Samsung/telus to release the jb update. What is the closest custom rom to the stock Samsung note 2 system? I want it to be like my gs2x and note 2 running stock Samsung jelly bean.

So you have a note 2? Sounds like you should be the one telling us which rom is closest if so!
I don't have a note 2 but played with one for a couple of hours. It wasn't rooted so it wasn't that exciting. The note 2 runs on touchwiz and there isn't a JB rom with touchwiz available for the original note yet! So nothing will compare in that sense. I'm using ParanoidKangDroid by JamieD. It's lot LOTS of features and xtra's to impress any note 2 holder in my opinion!! Check it out!

NO, I have a note 1, and I have a s2x that just got 4.1.2 update yesterday. I love jellybean. works great! I am looking for the closest rom to stock samsung jb for my note 1. with their software etc included.
Well your not going to find a JB rom with the "samsung" apps. Like S note, or anything like that for the original note yet. We won't see those until we get an official JB release.
I'm currently on JB ver 4.2.2 and love it! You can find 3rd party apps similar to S note and whatnot. Every custom JB rom on here is different in its own way. Some have stylus gestures, some don't. Some have cool hybrid features where others do not. You have to read what's included into the rom and pick what you like. It's a personal preference. I personally try them all!! Currently my favorite is paranoidkangdroid like I mentioned previously. Try it out!

You can try this one it has the TW launcher on 4.2.2 but it does not run all the Samsung Apps as it is really just a skinned CM 10.1.

Just wondering does the tethering work on this jelly bean rom?
You could always install stock CM10.1 then use one of the .Zip files from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236937 to add Touchwiz launcher and widgets, the second post down adds a few Samsung apps but nothing specific to the Note just stuff like samsung file manager, app store and sounds from the Galaxy S4. it's what i'm using along side a Touchwiz CM10.1 theme from the play store.

[Q] TouchWiz Roms obsolete on Fassy?

Hi, I'm using my Fassy as a temporary replacement as I sell my Note 2 for a downgrade on Swappa. You might be asking why in the hell I'm selling my Note 2. Trust me, I don't want to sell it, but I have to for extra cash.
Anyways, I'm looking through the Development thread and all I see are AOSP roms. My question is, where are all the TouchWiz roms?! I like to rock stockish TouchWiz roms on Sammy phones. So I'm assuming developers are no longer producing TouchWiz roms for this device. In that case, can you, XDA, provide me a link to the most-recent Fassy TouchWiz rom with a modified TouchWiz kernel?
A Thanks will be given to people that help out. Thank you! :good:

Ha you're right. I didn't take that into account. I know Samsung won't be able to upgrade this to TouchWiz 4.1+ lol

S4 camera mod/apk for TW based ROM

Does any know if there is an S4 camera mod/apk that will work on TW Based ROM
- I have a Verizon Note 2 running Jelly Beans Build 20.
I did find a S4 camera from Alliance ROM but before I try it, I wanted to know if there is a better option.
I'm real skeptical that the S4 camera will work for me on my current ROM.

You should probably edit your title and put [REQ] in front of it, because your title now implies it's in this thread.
I will say I want this mod too, but I doubt it's gonna happen. Too many differences. It would be a hack and slash probably with not many features and mostly a different interface.
