TW 4.2.2 closing in? ...get ready Beanstown! xD - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

http://www.sidhtech.com/news/samsung-galaxy-note-3-s3-android-422-update/1006086/
Since its safe to assume verizon will be running over this update again and again with its monster truck of doom and then leaving it to die in the mud long before even thinking about passing the carcass of whats left to its customers, our awesome dev's will be needing an international base, I'm sure, as soon as it is available in order to pass the greatness on to their VZ followers(ok me ) through their awesome ROMs that they work so hard on.
Soooo I was thinking; in order to hopefully cut the first step out (getting a hold of the update file itself) maybe the right combination of peeps(someone who is or knows someone that is on the international base) could read this thread and kindly have the update file extracted and ready to share to the devs as soon as its available...
If this is a waste of thread then I apologize. I'm just trying to help any way I can...
I flash ALOT ...and also yes.

I'm thinking we'll have the international base out by middle of next week. Hopefully we'll get some of the new features that's on the GS4 like the new photo stuff.

crossfingers :fingers-crossed:

Takes a deep breath, holds it, holds it, passes out.

I wonder if the ROMs we have now will update their base to 4.2.2.. Or start a new rom/thread

Why would they?

That's not even a question to ask. The devs are already on the latest version. And usually have the new base out ASAP.

Id say it depends on what rom youre talking about. Ones built off the VZW base wont be updated until we get an OTA more than likely. Roms based on the International firmware will be updated straight away.
The article the OP linked only applies to the International variant, therefore its only moderately exciting.

I don't see the goods of the 4.2.2 and I prefer 4.1.2 lock screen.

Im right there with ya! The international roms almost always have more features, seeing as how Verizon hasnt managed to get their grubby hands on it, and run a bit smoother than the VZW roms that have been modded to add the features back.

They updated the s3 with the s4 coming out like it did. That's a silly assumption. And Samsung is great with updates. Verizon is the one who takes forever to push them. Please get your facts straight kind sir.

Samsung Rolling out ICS update for International Note

Great news guys. Look like Samsung has begun rolling out ics update for our Note. Does anyone received a notification for update yet? I won't because I'm on custom rom. Check out this article below.

Not our Note version and only in Germany, so far. But this means it will be rolling, and spilling, to everyone. It is good news; at least until there is some announcement about Jelly Bean and then we can all do this dance over again.
It sux that we wait 6-8 months for the newest OS then only get to enjoy it for a couple months before the best one rolls in.

God only knows how long it'll be before we see it on this side of the Pond. Will this at least speed up the devs getting the source files they need to make custom kernels? The various "leaks" (aka free beta testing for Samsung) have been great- each better than the last, but I believe what they are REALLY waiting on is the source so they can really tweak the kernel.
Before anyone starts flaming on me, I am NOT asking for an ETA of anything.. just wondering out loud if the source files are typically released in short order and if the release for the Int'l Note will be sufficient for us here.
I dont believe a kernel source for the int note will help us since it is different software

Yes we have basically the same physical phone and the idea is the same but the internals are completely different, even if source comes out when I post this message it will have absolutely no benefit to us for kernel help. Apks maybe but beneficial software is a negative.

Most likely if you want to get the ota update or how ever ics comes to us you have to be out of the box stock which is achievable with the stock odin file. When the update comes out you can bet there will be a cwm or odin file on here to get it on your phone the same day so its up to you.

With Jelly Bean and all of its great features which makes it pretty much the fastest Android platform ever, owners of recent hardware are wondering just*when will the latest Google platform be released for their phones. In case of the*Samsung*Galaxy*S III, rumor has it that Samsung is already allegedly finished the refresh and should be pushing it out in August or September.The*Samsung*Galaxy*S*II, while not a fresh hardware, is still a very popular Android phone (and one of the two most popular Samsung phones). Same report claims that Samsung has started testing the Android 4.1 update on the Samsung Galaxy S II. While there is no further information out there (nor official) we’re left wondering; there SGSIII update is certain (the only question is when) while the SGSII refresh will definitely be a nice touch for the millions of owners out there.

Yeah but we don't really need ATT. As long as Sammy is working on the international version and releases source, we can get it together for the i777. Still, its up to Samsung at this point.

[IDEA] Port international firmware/ROM's to Verizon Note 2?

Considering the similarities between the domestic variants of the Note 2 and their international counterparts, would anyone be willing to test some of the success that the folks over in the AT&T forum have had with porting the international N7100/N7105 firmware/ROM's over to the Verizon Note 2
Check out these two threads over in the AT&T forum and see what you all think:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016575
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018411
The basic gist of the procedure is to use a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP to flash a stock N7100/N7105 firmware, and then flash your carrier specific modem/kernel.
Why would anyone want to do this? Well, for starters, you would benefit from built-in stock-supported tethering, and a few other features that carriers disable (YMMV). But mainly this means that the domestic versions of the Note 2 can benefit from the development of the international versions! So, when the latest version of Android comes out for the rest of the world, we aren't stuck here waiting for our carrier to catch up to everyone else...
So what do you all think? Anyone willing to try?
ba-ba-ba-BUMP.
What about integrating carrier specific apps? The Verizon version has a data usage app that works without logging into my Verizon.
I do believe that is what scrosler was doing here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055218 and he said this in the features " Verizon Patch files in a flashable zip can be found http://www.cleanroms.com/downloads/Note2/VZW Patch for 7105 Base.zip This will let the ROM think you are a VZW ROM! Good for the Play Store and APN settings! " But.... He did say he was unsure if it works on other roms in his second post. You possibly could try it. : )
Thanks. . But I'm already using his VZW rom

Yeah since the hardware is nearly identical I think the most you would risk is a soft brick. The 7100 lacks LTE though so I'm not sureif you would have data on one of those roms. Tell us how it goes if you go through with it.

Note 3 rom for note 2?

Any devs thinking of the possibility to make things with the new note 3 such as, the spen features work(ACTION MEMO, SCRAPBOOK,ETC) on our older note2's? It looks like the snote refresh is more user friendly to everyday actions. The rest is still ok, for me anyway. But I would rather donate than spend $700 for a new phone. Thoughts?

Yes, although it'd be best just to flash the 4.3 stock ROM that our devs release, when it becomes available, so you'll stay unlocked and rooted because they may not be able to unlock any new updates.

Neither of you last statements are correct. The lack of development is coming from a yet to be cracked ME7 boot loader as well as a just recently released MI1 update. If you are on MDK kernel still there are quite a few roms out there for your enjoyment.

Eclipse TW edition. It's so good that no one comments on the thread... no bugs.
Plus the pile of AOSP-based usual suspects.
Does this need to be a thread? Go look through the forums, and try whatever you think will work best for you and try them out. If you think the development is dead then don't get the S4 or sell it for something else. What are you looking for? someone to tell you that it's not dead, you should keep your phone, better things are coming? If your satisfied with the phone and what you have on their great, if not, do whatever you feel.
The ME7 issue killed a lot of development, there's no denying it. Just look at the development forums of an S4 from a different carrier.
Although the few ROM's that are available for this device are real quality. Really we should all stop debating about it and start cooking our own ROM's.

It's you. There's a lot of development for the S4. We don't need 10 Roms that are all the basically the same. We have CM, touchwiz with plenty of tweaks, AOSP, and Google edition. Is there something I am missing?
