You can install most all TouchWiz roms on the forums, just avoid KitKat (there's only one rom, all the other KitKat threads of which I'm aware are either AOSP, which I believe is hewn from 4.3/MJ4, which is what you're on or routes to NAB, which upgrades your build to official Sammy TouchWiz KitKat, so not really roms that you'd flash with the recovery you put on there).
If you stick with the ones referenced above, you'll be fine, but you have a few choices to make, including...
1. Do want to upgrade to KitKat, which is coming to our phones eventually (not yours, since you've rooted and installed recovery)? If yes, then I'd recommend flashing one of the tars on the dev forum, and running stock for a few days or so, until these awesome devs start putting out some real exciting roms to flash.
2. Do you want a highly themed, beautiful looking rom? If yes, then you might look at some of the excellent choices on the dev forum, choose wisely, but there are options aplenty. Most all of these are MJ4 based.
3. Do you want AOSP or one of its offshoots? If yes, then you might wish to explore those options before selecting either 1 or 2. I'm not too familiar when AOSP roms, as I don't use them, but many options from which to choose, so you should be able to read a bit and decide for yourself.
One last item...please confirm (here or just on your end) the recovery that you flashed is made for MJ4/Jellybean 4.3.
Have fun, and welcome to our growing community!

My recovery is twrp the touch one, what about the bootloader, I see there is one called en bootloader do I need to flash that or not, I believe my boot loader is the standard one

No, I'm speaking of recovery.
Please make certain that you grabbed the proper recovery from the TWRP thread. It's simple, each is labeled according to whether you're on Jellybean (you are), or KitKat, you're not.
The bootloader is unrelated to recovery.
I'd rather you start out right than not.
Just check the TWRP thread, compare it to what you downloaded, and you'll be fine.
Both flavors of TWRP come with a graphic user interface, with touch screen navigation.

I'll leave that in your very capable hands.
I don't pick horses in these forums, as it tends to deter development, in a broad sense. Show love, thanks, and donate to the dev that you like. Even the soi-disant easy-to-build roms take effort, so I wouldn't deter you from any. Some like them a lot.
Make your own choices. You'll find the experience far more rewarding.
I do recommend taking time, looking at the OP, pics, length of thread (more posts does not necessarily = better, but can be a good indicator), user feedback, dev ownership (yes there is honor in supporting one's craft...to a point...users can whine a lot)...but I promise you, if you read, imagine, think it through, you'll nail it, and find something you love.
Good luck!

These look fantastic, and I love modular approaches, as it allows for making it one's own phone.
You have been gracious enough to offer, if not a hassle, a holo blue with gray combo would be stunning (like Ultima rom apps, ultimarom.com). See screen capture of Play Store comparison, and dev's website for additional detail. Stock or cool icons both look great.
Either way, thanks for these!

Nope. Ya gotta hit the international version themes and apps thread, there's a baker's dozen of compatible KitKat Air Command themes.
They are all vrtheme mods, quite safe, and only change the relevant image files within the framework-res.apk, leaving all else untouched.

download root checker from the market and make sure you are or not rooted. If you aren't boot into recovery depending on which recovery you have look around for re root or root fix it could be in the advanced section. Try that

Developers have lives outside of XDA, it takes a considerable amount of time to create or even update a current ROM. Please keep this in mind before posting such unnecessary posts.

You did indeed start this thread, but there is no such thing as freedom of speech on forums such as these. There is only what the moderators decide to tolerate. And speaking poorly of the Devs who DONATE so much of their free time to these forums is one thing they tend not to tolerate.

I want to adjust things a little because I feel that this deserves proper localization
APN settings will always produce a FC but it doesn't matter honestly; 4G still works and sticks through reboots lol; I'm doing a really invasive thing and forcing this firmware to use the S4 APNs, it was not made for the S4 ;x
Alright so 4g does stick on reboots. It took my phone maybe 5 minutes for 4g to show up but once it did I was good.
Kept getting the settings FC when trying to enter GMail Account (backup account) but just kept closing it and finally went away. Tapatalk kept FC though [emoji35] I'm back on my DD as I'm off too work. I'll play with ColorOs when im home later.
PS. I tried flashing supersu to have root and no dice any suggestions

This ROM is not the only one with very little information, some of the big names are very vague as well. I am new to the S4 and come here looking for ways to optimize my phone, it would be nice to have reliable information posted in the ROM details how to install.

I understand your frustration. I think the devs who have a rom that works for multiple devices/carriers just forget about the few phones/carriers that do have limitations like that.

Sure let me go back and edit 30 threads with a device specific FAQ to cover the general issues which will take a while for me to garner because I only own 1/30
Meanwhile if someone wants to adb their stock firmware for me I could maybe make some stuff you could use with safestrap, but when I make this offer it never pans out because very rarely does someone want to actually get their hands dirty

Hey everyone! It's been a while since I released anything for Android. I took a much needed break from everything for about 5 months. Well now I'm back and I'm making my home the Note 2 section
Now let me tell you first off, this ROM is absolutely nothing to go crazy over (hence the name). However, it will eventually grow into a pretty badass build by time the last update rolls around. So if you want to use this ROM, what I'm asking is that you take a journey with me. This ROM will be an adventure and I would like you all to go on that adventure with me. Follow me through every step of this ROM. Too many times nowadays, ROMs are used for about a maximum of 1 month before people get bored and move on to something else. That's why I started Mediocre ROM. I wanted to start with a completely clean slate, and then eventually add features in 1 by 1 (or a group of features here, group of features there). My point is that I want this ROM to have many updates, that way you, the user, are never bored. Also, if you have ANY suggestions, please post them!! I'm not saying they will all be implemented, but they will ALL be considered. So without further ado, let's get to the brass tax!
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible if your phone divides by 0 and causes thermo-nuclear war with Russia!
NOTE:
You must be on the MJ9 Firmware to flash this ROM!!
Credits will be added as more and more people contribute the features that get added into this ROM.

any chance of getting a non-safestrap version for the ones who haven't upgraded to 4.3 & locked bootloader?

I'll look into it. Shouldn't be too hard to do but since I'm locked and on 4.3 this build will have priority.

I kinda wanted to keep this stock Note 2 but I do love the Note 3 apps that everyone is putting in theirs so I might throw them in. I'm glad you like the idea. Haven't seen anyone else do something like this yet.

OK no problem it's your rom, I was just asking. I love them as well and since they have come out I haven't used a rom without them yet but either way I'll be trying this.. thanks again man
Download link and MD5 posted in the OP! Let's get this party started!
I must have got a bad download. I got an error after the flash and had to go back to Alliance. I'm going to try another download and try once more as I think this is one of the coolest rom concepts yet and want to be involved. Thank you for doing a rom just for safestrap users like me.

Had this issue before with ROMs. Might be a bad upload. I'll have to look at the link and see what's up. Thanks for letting me know!

Unfortunately it happened again using the same link. After install I get a red FAILED ... so restored back to Alliance. I will try again once you check the upload. Thanks again and I can't wait to give this a whirl.

It's a bad upload. I'll have to find somewhere else to upload the ROM and then I'll comment here when I do.

Lol no worries! I didn't find a different place to upload it yet. I'm going to try a couple places today though. It is definitely a bad upload though. Size of the file is 1.02GB and it only uploaded 801.1MB. I'll comment here though as soon as I get this uploaded. I have access to a FTP host now so I'll try that.
Disabled "home button wake" too. Going to start uploading after I make a few changes real quick.
Really sorry for taking so long everyone! I ran into some issues and will be posting something this week.
