Nexus 7 system dump. thanks to Zedomax
Http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739147
Could possibly be ported to prime or at least new features pulled from it and implemented into prime roms.
Mods can delete thread if it can't be ported.
Jelly Bean looks pretty dang cool, but I think I'm personally going to wait until there is a stock-based JB ROM. I've tried AOSP-based ROMs on my Prime, and the loss of functionality on the keyboard, as well as the headaches with battery monitoring on the second battery just aren't worth it.
Once Wookie can get his hands on an Asus build of JB, I bet this thing will really come alive.

You would be far better off waiting for either:
A dump from the Nexus 7 (Which is closer hardware-wise)
Waiting for source to be pushed to AOSP in a few weeks.

SDK ports tend to be as slow as molasses and functionally incomplete as they usually lack the driver support of the proper release.
The HTC One X port from the Galaxy Nexus image is well... As bad as you would expect.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. I am currently using CM9 and the keyboard functions equally as well as stock. Monitoring of the second battery works perfectly too. This is the case with all the recent releases of the other AOSP roms too. I do not think it will be too long before we have a JB AOSP rom for the Prime. I wish you luck in seeing the same from ASUS. Hopefully sometime next year lol.

I'm running the Galaxy Nexus JellyBean OTA on my Gnex at the moment, and it is SWEET!
It seems that Project Butter has, for the most part, worked. My Galaxy Nexus has never been as smooth as it is now!
I can't wait for JellyBean to be released on our Primes! If I can stop myself buying a Nexus 7 that is!

That's been the only thing holding me back from flashing an AOSP rom on my Prime, I was worried the keyboard dock wouldn't work or with limited functionality. I might have to give CM9 a go..

I haven't tried CM9, but on AOKP and EOS, the extra tweaks for things like the keyboard unlock that Asus baked in are missing. I use mine for taking notes pretty frequently, and I like to be able to turn the screen on and off with the keyboard. That was never an option with AOKP or EOS. I recognize that it's a small issue for most people, but it was a deal-breaker for me. The ROMs that I was running didn't have a dual-battery guage, either, unless you wanted a big ugly widget on one of your home screens to tell you how your dock battery is doing. I also missed the quick OC settings that are in the stock-based FW.

Not to push you or anything but did you take a look how we can get Jellybean for our Prime by using the Nexus 7 files?
Can we already begin porting or do we have to wait for the source code?

Sorry for the lame post, ie can you guys answer my personal question, but i am seriously considering getting the Note 2 when it comes out here in Canada. Thought i would ask you original Note users about custom ROM usability as it is a concern to me.
I am a galaxy nexus user and was hoping to get the next nexus, but since it is being made by LG i have my reservations. I also find myself considering a tablet, but then have to ask myself what i would do on a tablet that i don't already do on my phone, except of course on a larger scale. Which brings me into Phablet territory.
Coming from the nexus, and being the type of Android user who likes the vanilla OS, my concerns revolve around customization. Given that the S Pen functionality is so deeply implemented into the OS does this result in a lesser experience if a custom ROM is flashed? Say you choose to flash one of the new CM10 nightlies. Is it CM10 just like it is on all other phones/tablets, or does it retain the "stuff" that makes the Note what it is....unique?
Any feedback is appreciated, flaming not so much

I just got my note 2 weeks ago. I came from the incredible 2. I had cm 7, 9, and 10 on it. One of the first roms i flashed on my gnote was cm. To me i didn't notice alot of difference. I didn't keep it on long because i wanted the use of the pen. I did find a nice Rom with good features in a stock Rom (black star). Samsung is supposed to release jb for the gnote.so once that happens there will be more options. After that gnote 3 will be out and key lime pie

I was really wondering the same thing, I'm considering the note 2 but will hold off if the s pen functions can't be applied to custom roms. From reading around the forums it looks like the functions probably won't be able to be transferred to aosp roms. I think they're making progress on the note 1, but not all aosp roms have functionality and they still don't have full functionality. It looks like touchwiz roms are fine though, but then again I'm not a note user.
I suppose it would be a lot of extra work for the developer(s) who work on the ROM to integrate such functionality into a ROM for just one device. I'll have to wait and see it when it comes out. Since the Note 2 well be running JB out of the box, a simple root and removal of bloatwear might be all that is needed. I've def become a fan of Samsungs products since the nexus s though. I also have to admit that the look and overall specs of the LG Nexus 4 are pretty underwhelming. I might have to do something crazy, like wait for something else to come along :-S HTCs new 5" phone with 1080p screen might be the sweet spot for me as long as it has good development support. Can't beat HTCs build quality. My hopes for the Note 2 remain high though as i haven't read a negative review yet.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yeah same here, for me its between the note 2 and the htc 1080p phone. There are some aosp roms with s pen support on the note 1 and it looks like the note 2 will become very popular so there's a good chance cm10 and other roms may have s pen support. The only thing that's keeping me from the note 2 is that samsung isn't releasing as much driver and chip info so developers may not want to or be able to do as much. In the video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTRKL5E9Iak and in a few other threads, its said that cyanogenmod won't officially support the note 2 because of that.
I think the problem is that Samsung has not released the source to the pen but i am not 100% sure.

Makes me sad. Although, what really makes me sad is that i have to carefully weigh the decision of which phone to purchase based on how well it will be supported by private developer community. Weird isn't it? I buy a phone, and change it as soon as i take it out of the box. LG Nexus is sounding better now.

Hi, I just flash with Omega V9.1 custom rom + RedHill V1.0 kernel + Philz CWM 3.81 recovery on my Note 2 N7100.
Run smoothly with S Pen (auto pop up), multi-windows, swap ext2SD function.. SUPER SMOOTH...:good:
I'm using my spen without any problems on CM10. Gnote and memo beta work better than the Samsung spen app. The only thing missing are the spen genstures and shortcut for screen capture which I never used and there are dozens of screenshot apps.
Why do people act like the spen does not work outside stock?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
The SPen works fine on custom roms, it's the button features that are missing from (moat) 207 custom roms. Personally I prefer the original functionality that the SPen exhibits in touch wiz, so I'm running a stock(ish) rom.
So to answer your question, wait what was your question again?

Hello,

thanks, I will appreciate it
I have been seeing these UA's popping up quite a bit over the last few days, especially at the bench marking sites.
Code:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.2.2; Nexus 10 Build/JDP66) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.166 Safari/535.19
Looks like Android 4.2.2 build JDP66 is out there & likely will be hitting Nexus 10 devices shortly as it is already rolling out to a few Nexus 4 users.
Anyone else seen anything on this version? Any leaked change logs?
Supposedly 4.2.2 is already being pushed to nexus 4s in Brazil & Malaysia but I haven't seen anything about the nexus 10 yet

I'm not entirely sure who is to blame actually. Given that the mdnie code is missing from the kernel, it's entirely possible that the proprietary blobs from Samsung are in a way "pre-calibrated" when sent to Google.
Now of course, you could also make the argument someone at Google should have said "hey this doesn't look right", but then you're just playing the blame game lol.

I just wandered over to the Nexus 4 forum to see if there was any info about it there. There's a thread in General which has a youtube video in it (I can't do links yet but you should be able to find it).
It looks like it may be fake, because of the way it turns off.. reminds me of CM with that TV effect.

Android 4.2.2
Does this update already come pre-installed on Nexus 10 and Nexus 4? or is it the next version after it? I'm confused.
4.2 currently comes installed on the N10. 4.2.1 will download and have you update upon setting up for the first time. 4.2.2 is the rumored next update to 4.2.1.
I just hope that next update will fix screen calibration and google chrome problems

I would say it's more than rumor. While the video itself may be from some lonely attention seeking geek, the UA's showing up in multiple counties via numerous server logs, not just BM sites either, I'd say there is most definitely a 4.2.2 update on its way. I would not have even posted anything in the first place if I hadn't been able to find it in the logs of numerous servers.
Not to mention, it would be pretty dramatic & a bit too thurough for your typical hoaxster, as I was able to find it for several Nexus devices.
Currently there are many things that are bugging the heck out of me, including keyboard issues, screen calibration, & the processor which cannot be optimized as it lags much more than my Note 10.1 with its Exynos 4412. There are times that the Nexus 10 is almost flung across the room by me, so frustrating.
I hope it is going to solve reboot issue as well......

what screen and chrome issues are you experiencing?
Most likely he's experiencing he affects of a poor factory calibration. Washed out color with poor gamma tracking (boosted shadow detail) . Overly warm color temperature (red tinted whites) , and extremely poor color accuracy (muddy and inaccurate colors. This is well documented on anadtechs review of the ipad 4, as they compare measurements against the nexus 10.

I don't get this kinda logic. Google has to build and test the next update, sometimes the update has bugs. Would you want a new update just because it's new and have problems with it? I wouldn't. I'd rather samsung wait and finalize their update, while waiting for Google to fix any problems.
Samsung still has to build and test their rom. To me as long as I get the update I'm fine. If I wanted updates that badly I'd be with the nexus 4

So if im understanding what youre saying youd like a still broken 4.2.2 update? Its not fixed yet, its been months now since it was released. I think we take the L on this one and move on
Stock 4.2.2 crippled my N7, so much so that i literally gave it away. At this point, as ashamed as I am to say it...samsung has done more to fix it than google has
Verizon recently jumped the gnex from whatever it was on straight to 4.2.2. Chances are we wont see a 4.2.2 OTA or leak before Android 5 (or w.e its called) is announced in May. 4.2.2 was meant to be a foundation for 5, so why not skip the 4.2 update, which, IMO doesnt bring much thats meaningful to the table anyway and go straight for the next version?

I fully expect the next Android increment to be 5.0.x. Also yes 4.2 added quick reply to the notification shade so I would like the latest 4.2 release which is 4.2.2.
I'm not sure what problems you're having on your Nexus 7, but 4.2.2 fixed the only known one which was Bluetooth audio streaming acting wierd. That was resolved and all is well.

Hot reboots, general laginess (even after turning off background sync on Currents). Battery life tanked. I gave it away so I can't remember the rest.
For what it's worth on the update of our phones and skipping 4.2.2:

Stooked about key lime pie, but wondering if it will bring new problems for developing? I hope not, the dev community we do have for our beloved Note 2 do a great job, regardless.

Hopefully they upgrade the Verizon variant too. I am new to VZN (came from Sprint) and from what I read/heard the updates come late if at all.
I would love to use the finger hover feature on the s4 with my note 2. Doesn't seem like it would be tough since the s-pen code probably looks for data from the pen and ignores fingers which is likely more complex. I personally have waited for tablets to add this ability for things like menus on non mobile pages so if this update does happen on the note line I might consider the note 10.1 over a nexus 10 or a 4th gen ipad.
I know the s-pen does the same thing but I personally find the tip is difficult to depress at angles and using it for drawing is basically impossible since the screen position sensor resolution isnt quite fine enough for precise pixel selection.
Half the people, including those on the forum probably dont even know half of the features the n2 even come with.
For instance, on a list of people (sms, phome, contacts), you can press on a contact and slide left to text or right to call. One more exampke are the s-pen gestures....sigh....

I recently bought a Gs4 on verizon running the latest 4.3 mk2 software and I hate touchwiz. Its just so packed with useless stuff that makes the phone slow. Since I cannot install a custom recovery on this phone I was thinking of trading it for an lg g2 and wiping the os and installing kit kat on it from cyanogen mod. What do you guys think should I do the trade?

You'll have to define "slow." My S4 on the stock unrooted ROM was not what I'd consider to be slow. Rooted on Hyperdrive, it is not slow. I had a Blackberry Storm. That was slow.
KitKat is scheduled to be released this month or next for this phone. I would imagine that our devs will have custom ROMS fairly quickly afterward, if there's not a leak released before.
You might be better posting your question in the G2 forum. You'll probably find more people there with experience on both phones.
There are a lot of nice ROMS for safestrap users... I'm on MK2 ..currently running foxhound diamond dogs and eclipse. Both are pretty close to a aosp experience ( I also despise touchwiz)

I agree with charliepan69. I would safestrap flash a ROM before making the switch
I would keep my S4. LG sucks. The LG g2 looks nice but I'm sure there isn't much development for that device. Pretty soon I'm sure someone will figure out how to flash aosp roms. I remember running safestrap when I had the DROID RAZR and devs made aosp roms compatible with safestrap

I'm with you there... I had the RAZR too. I've thought about the g2 a few times as well and just couldn't do it. By the sounds of it kexec for SafeStrap may be close to coming out and that would change everything. There were a ton of aosp ROMs for the razr I'm sure the s4 will have even more. I couldn't wait myself that's why I just got rid of the mj7 s4.

Touchwiz does suck
Just throw a different launcher on it. I'm running Apex pro. It's quick... usually have between 700 and 800 megs free memory. Not exactly what I'd call a slow phone. I looked at getting the G2 when I got this S4. Very happy with the choice.
Another good point. I use Nova on any an all ROMs I use. I'd say apex an Nova would be the two to choose from in my opinion

Definitely safestrap it and stick with the S4 for now.....
S4 slow? You must've been using Nova, apex, or whatever launcher people use nowadays. My stock unrooted is screaming fast...

Nova launcher flies. Faster than stock I think many would agree

No way, there's a huge delay in touch response when tapping an icon. I guess I'm one of the only ones who can notice that. I even bought the prime version a while back and don't use it because I can't stand the lag.

I do not experience that with nova. Although I'll agree stock launcher is faster just because it was optimized for the phone, especially with animations off, but nova is plenty fast and worth having real control over the lajncher

Well I really think it depends on the ROM... and the settings etc. As well.
I'm running Liquid Smooth with Nova right now. and I have no delay at all with touch response and it was so fast I ended up slowing things down a little so I could enjoy the animations from xuimod as well.
Like I said it depends if u ask me.

You must have too much apps running, hold down on the home button for like 3 second and then let go. Close all of the apps you don't need by swiping them to the side. Then see how fast your s4 is. I had my s4 for at least 3 month now, still as fast as out the box (until i rooted and flashed it, now it's even faster with greenify).
