Got my daughter a G2 and loving the knock on feature. Any way to implement this on the Note 2?
I installed the LG launcher from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2518570
but only knock off feature works. Assuming its a kernel issue? I am running Nephilim, which is TW.
From what I read in that forum it looks like you need the stock lg lockscreen in order for knock on to work. Not sure if any roms have it or if it can be flashed or installed somehow.

Did some more research. Alliance ROM has the LG lockscreen, so I'm gonna try it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274197

Installed Alliance ROM, chose the lg lock screen, and knock on still doesn't work

It is a kernel related item I'd guess. If not, then it is part of the framework somewhere. In either case, it's not going to be the easiest thing to port over.

I got knock on on my Nexus 7 by installing a kernel so maybe someone will put that option in.
Had knock been added to any note 2 roms yet?
Yes, we need this feature.
Someone, get on it, quick!

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.

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?

Ok now that I've re-read your op my advice would be to get the note 2 over the lg nexus. Just look at the hardware specs, and you'll really enjoy the extra square footage once you get to know it.

Hello,
I am using slim customr rom, can anybody post a working spen app.
thanks, I will appreciate it
As the title states, is it available? Did a search on el goog and couldn't find anything. Went to miui.us and closest I saw was for the gs3. Anyone? Bueller?
no. not yet. I don't know if anyone is even working on it.

Beans will probably make it like he did for the S3 I'd give it some time since this phone has only been out for a month.

I hate that I forget about that. It seems like it's been out for a while now. That's on other carriers though.
There's always MiHome to keep you sated until the full ROM comes out, in case you weren't aware. Comes with the lockscreen, too.

My upgrade date isn't until January 25th. I'm really hoping some headway is made on this before then. I'm sure a lot of people, myself included would be very inclined to make a nice donation to anybody willing to work on this! The AT&T group seems to have made a TON of progress on this, so maybe some collaboration could be done with them to port a "final" build over once they iron out the kinks?
I ported miui to the sprint galaxy note 2 CDMA and if you guys want to use that as a base to port over I don't mind ..so far everything is working on the build ..you can look at the sprint thread and its miui on stock base with working multi Window n s pen features

Beans told me he's working on it. He has been very busy with his ROM but I told him I would be patient.
cant wait for this
That's awesome. Since I've moved over to Samsung I've been enjoying jb touch wiz and haven't really missed miui. It had that appeal to me because it looked and somewhat performed like ios but now I think tw is far more superior in performance and cosmetics than ios/miui. I'm really liking the one handed operation that tw offers. I'm not sure that miui offers that.

I cant wait to see MIUI on this badass phone. It seems to have a hell of a lot less problems that the S3 so maybe that means MIUI wont be as difficult to debug. Either way, buggy or not, I cannot wait to see this. And Beans is a freaking AMAZING dev

yes,you can flash
MIUI Home
If you flash the MIUI Home zip will you then have the option of choosing between it and your stock home? Or does something else have to be flashed for that to happen?
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.

I have noticed something lately, it seems like not that many people are on the note 3 forums for sprint. Is it because it's sprint, the price of the phone or because people just don't want to mess with the phone? What do you guys think?
The themes/apps section the most views are on my thread (spen sound pack) and it has been downloaded over 2000 times from kevinrocksman.com and goo.im put together
Personally I know quite a few people who are just still locked down for one more year in contract..also I see a ton of people with the S4 who love the N3 but didn't want to wait.

Well, I use mostly stock, rooted rom because, well, unlike some previous devices, it's quite "good enough" that other than removing a bit of crap, I'm happy with the rest of it.
I didn't use your sound pack, as cool as it seems because I turn off spen sounds.
And honestly, I've not had many issues to speak of, so since I don't have much to say, I don't post much.
It really is the best device I've ever had in stock form.
I spend most of my time on the general Note 3 forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3
I just pop my head in here occasionally to look for Sprint specific updates.
I've thought the same thing before. The phone is a niche style phone on the third largest carrier. I'm glad the community we do have is like family and constantly helping each other out.
Maybe after the holidays and tax season everyone will be making the switch. The phone is awesome and all.

I've got a Note 2 and I pop in here and just watch the arguing about if the Note 3 has tri band or not lol. Then I check if AOSP has been released. Still thinking if I should get the Note 3 or not. I wonder if Sprint will release a tri-band version like they did with the S4.
I waited til price drop. Bestbuy has them $149 if you add a line so yeaterday i went down grabbed a note 3 and swapped it to my current line. Called sprint canceled the new line and will sell my lg g2 to pay the etf

The Kernel I use is from those forums:
[kernel][tw] leanKernel: minimalistic kernel
and these mods can be found over in the generic Note 3 forums as well:
[APP] [v2] PEN Window Manager - Easily Enable Apps for PEN Window
[APP] MultiWindow PLUS - Enable HIDDEN Multiwindow Features - MUST HAVE excellent mod
[APP] MULTIWINDOW Apps Manager - Easily Add More Apps to the Multiwindow Tray
Quite a lot seems to be cross-compatible, but even many of the things that aren't, the devs over there have made an effort to support as many of us as possible. So definitely show some support to those guys as well as the great devs that we have in this forum.
I think in another 40 days or so when i have an upgrade ill get it a sams club or somewhere its a bit cheaper the lack of hotspot hack on this g2 has me itching

I don't like the samsung ui overlay and LOVE stock 4.4 KitKat. I've been using a Moto X for a couple of days and I'm loving it!! If only the note 3 was a 1 device for all carriers like the nexus 5 so the same ROM would work for all carriers. I'm seriously thinking if selling my note 3 to buy a nexus 5 but the camera, screen and lack of sdcard slot really turn me down..
Please pardon my ignorance but Why isnt there a cm/aosp ROM for the note 3? Is it because Samsung has not provided the kernel source?

I only come here when I had a phone that needed to be modded. I dont dabble much so I appreciate all that people do here..
I have a note 3 and just plane love it.. unroooted and all... no issues.. just plane cool!!! still getting used to it... but eventually I will root it..
people say they want to remove the bloatware... I went in and clicked disable on the stuff I didnt want and I know it is still there.. but with the amount of ram I have in it.. I dont care..
so we have what.. 32gb of space.. and i added a 64gb micro sd class 10.. added it right in the store.. got someone to change their mind from an iphone cuz they didnt want to pay more $$$ for 64gb unit... hah...
anyway.. I got so much space free I havent seen a need to remove any apps...
also this is my first "Note" and I will ALWAYS own a note now...
i went from
Sprint Titan with custom rom> Galaxy S2 > Note 3 - so I dont have much experience on the android platform but I love this thing!!!!
I have flashed every android phone I had in the past, mainly because they needed it in order to function and perform properly. The note 3 is a beast out of box, therefore unless there's a super stable and awesome rom that catches my attention, I won't flash. I think more people went with the S4 imo as well.

Hey Guys,
I've been using Moon Rom on my Note II for about a year now. I reset my phone and it seems that all of the mirrors for Verizon Moon Rom and Trans-Nebula Rom are down. Does anyone have the latest version of either of these roms. If not can you point me to a new tablet based rom? I've gone through all the info on the new roms but can't seem to find one that is tablet oriented. Thanks.
Once we were updated to 4.3, we lose the ability to run in tablet mode. I may have transnebula on my pc. Will drop it if I find it. I certainly miss tab layout, but these new Rome are pretty tight. You should check out the new port by L18. He was originally the porting dev. on moon.

Thanks. I'll check out L18's Rom. I've tried 4.3 and 4.4 roms but I like the tab layout better that all of them. I tried Mini Tab but it didn't work well for me. I'm fine staying on 4.1.2.
