That's a great project.

Man this would be great I hope we get it on both phones

I would LOVE this -- we could hopefully get some type of switch between the GE ROM and TW (Either stock or maybe Hyperdrive). I've been having troubles deciding between the two, and have basically created a hybrid for the time being using Hyperdrive as a base and Nova Launcher on top.

Possible ports from skyrocket or t-mobile sgs2

I have been able to port a few roms from the skyrocket or tm sgs2 and just feeling out to see if anyone would be interested in using them

Well that is clearly subjective. Remember we don't all find beauty in the same things. I'm sure many of us find the blue or stock themes attractive and would love a port if you have time.
I was only stating that ive tried porting ones that i like since i have only been using these for personal use. I have only heard from one dev so far so when i get off work i will put his up. So itll be 1 so far until i hear from more devs since i will not post them without permission

In your opinion would something like this be feasible:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484223
Or would it be possible to get his permission/work with him to modify the tool to make porting ROMs to the Note any easier?
edit: It almost sounds like it would be possible to create a "hellraiser" package that you flash in CWM right after flashing a ROM that would make all of the necessary device specific changes for you and would allow flashing of most ROMs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335377
After entropy created that AT&T OG SGS2 roms became super plentiful as many of the I9100 ROMs were hellraise-able.
That would be pretty nice. Not sure if their leak is the same as ours but if someone could make a conversion script to run after flashing the rom that would be great to. I used to run t989 roms on my skyrocket using that conversion script by reaperex if I'm not mistaken.

I would be interested in getting something fresh for the ICS.
Yea i am real familliar with the one for the i777 considering i had that phone before the note and i believe i still have it on my computer. I will get intouch with him and see if i can get permission to alter his build and if he agrees ill post that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
If i cant get permission by the time i get off work i will go home and work on a cwm flashable file to flash after a rom

Dual Booting Roms?

I came from the incredible to the rezound. With the incredible there was the capability to dual boot roms, so you could have a daily driver and then one to experiment with. I was wondering if anything exists for the rezound that would accomplish the same thing. Did a search and didn't find anything so I figured I would ask here. Any responses much appreciated. Thanks, Kyle.

Boot Manager works fine for Sense roms. I've heard of a lot of problems with AOSP roms though.
Sent from my Rezound using Tapatalk 2
Is there any other app that will accomplish the same thing that is being updated? Looks like they abandoned the project.

Rom toolbox pro should do it haven't done it personally but there's the option. And their still updating.

I downloaded Rom toolbox. I can't seem to find the option though. I bought the pro version just because I had a credit and it does cut down on the apps I need. Anyway if you could point me in the right direction that would be awesome.

S4 slow?

I suggest flashing Hyperdrive ROM and following steps accordingly. This has been my savior everytime I try a new ROM. The developer is amazing. Check it out
Sent from my Hyperdriven SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
All the roms are fast. Everyone should just try each one out and decide which they like the most.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium
Even stock is fast. I always turn off animations under dev options to give it more "snap". Stock or custom rom.

I'm on stock ME7 with force gpu rendering enabled and this is easily the fastest stock experience I've ever had. Only thing that's been faster was AOSP on my GS3/N2. I definitely can't complain.

Rocking Hyperdrive myself, Touch Wiz is the smoothest I have experienced.
I'm on bone stock me7 nothing changed. Faster then custom mdk ROMs I ran. I gave up. Updated to me7. IDC I have a nexus 7 for my crack flash toy. This is just my phone.

Oyeah if you are on HD, install the Death Star theme.. so good
Most of the TW ROMs run pretty well, including stock. However, they all run like junk compared to aosp.

Run Dubbsys Google edition rom stock.
It has Google wallet, ir blaster works. Just a smooth Google experience we all wanted.
It also has the tw camera working, but still not fully operational, which is fine.

I look forward to custom ROM's once we get an unlocked Bootloader again :crying:
This phone is just plain fast. Unless you messed something up during a flash or installed an app thats causing a problem than I don't see a reason why it would be slow at all.

I'm running hyperdrive release 7. 8 is out now but haven't bothered to flash it yet. Really liking 7. I normally don't flash ever release. I skip a few here and there. I wait for a bunch of changes to be made before updating.

Agreed. AOSP is a thing of the past. Time to grow and let go. TW is an amazing thing and I would really like more development from it. Hyperdrive is one of the best TW roms you can get for your S4 right now in my honest opinion. It is very solid and SBreen94 is an amazing developer. Always there for us fellow flashers.

Except when it comes to getting a fully functional camera experience
Well once carriers stop rom updates and tw development slows down, all that comes into effect is aosp since it's constantly being updated; that's in another year from now though.

I have a really hard time staying on an AOSP ROM at the moment...they all seem to have bugs and force closes...cm 10.2 is working pretty well for me right now and the new focus camera is pretty good...also Bluetooth problems as well...still a great rom though...TW is hard to beat though with everything functioning and working perfectly

4.4 rom?

Is anyone working on or have a stable or fairly stable kit Kat 4.4 rom available?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
They are all working on them. If they were ready for use they'd be posted.
Hopefully we'll see one soon. I'm itching for it
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Does the actual stock ROM/update specifically for the CDMA or GSM S4 need to be released or leaked first or can custom ROMs be made for these devices before-hand?
They have it working on my Verizon Gnex, so I imagine it shouldn't be TOO hard. But there's always stupid little issues, like what 4.3 ran in to. I'm excited for it, works great on my Gnex. Cool features too

The touchwiz 4.4 does not have to be out first for an aosp based Rom for the s4. It would have to be out if you wanted a touchwiz based 4.4

4.4 gummy
Just a heads up Team Gummy has a 4.4 rom they have been working hard on. The only Issue I have that keeps me from using this as my daily driver is there us know option when you set an account up to sync google calendars. I use that for work every day so for me it is not quite ready yet.

MIUI ROMS?

Where are the MIUI Roms? I heard a really stable version came out for the at&t s4 and it looks good. Any word from anyone working on a port?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
MIUI is a pain in the butt to port from my experience, takes a skilled dev to get it working nice on Samsung devices. From what I remember it takes a lot more than just apn changes to get data, wifi, etc.

Alright... Yea I just was wondering why. Thanks for the reply.
