Appreciate the work you put into this, can't wait to try it. I've been putting MM off until Xposed runs in the TW ROMs - any idea if it does yet?

---

I believe that requires a deodexed ROM. I don't remember. I'm still working on deodexing it so it still runs.

last i tried it still gives boot loop. (as of a few weeks ago) the devs that were working on it said that making it compatible with touch wiz based roms wasn't a priority as it still had many other issues to work through with 5.0.1 and 6.0.1 roms. Starting with lollipop the structure has changed a bit in the android source and it's caused issues with xposed.
Also, were you able to get native tethering enabled in this rom? it is somethign i've been struggling with in my roms since the upgrade. In 4.4.4 i had native tethering going, something about 6.0.1 just wont click though. I tried editing build.prop, i tried editing settings.db in sqlite, xposed gives boot loop, etc.

I've been running xposed on Stock MM TW on my edge for quite awhile now... Get Xposed Installer by dvdandroid and use Xposed Framework version 86.0-alt (custom build by wanam)

You have links for those that worked for your device?
Also did you update to 6.0.1 with the bootloader unlock method or was you on an original dev edition? (Might not matter at this point as all are technically devs now, but curious)
Also @chevy when I wiped and installed your rom supersu wasn't working I had to flash it in twrp. And it still had some bloat items like peel remote and some other stuff. I took a look in your rom folder and there was a lot of unnecessary folders. I checked my files and I kept some of them for convenience but most of them I dumped. (Not sure which debloat method you used, but I used nautilus and the delete key)

I have not tried to work on tethering yet. I'm compressing apks, and optimizing all ogg sound files next. I'm sure I will run across a couple other things, but I'll certainly try to get tethering working. One thing I KNOW I need to do, is see about working on the kernel a little. I need to get some extra performance out of it. Too bad nobody makes a kernel for the VZW variant. I'm not a kernel dev, but I'll do what I can.

Find the xposed zip that I mentioned in the app and it should download and flash it for you. :good:
Retail phone with 6.0.1 bootloader unlock. I've tried GravityBox, wanam, YouTube AdBlock, and many more all work fine.

If i had any idea what a kernel was supposed to look like i'd tackle it myself, but i have zero intention of giving myself a very expensive paper weight with built in night light. honestly never intended to do anything kernel wise. Back on the original droid i always looked for roms with kernels that supported overclocking or had it already set to be over clocked which cleared up all the F/C issues it was plagued with out of the box. but since that hasnt been an issue i never thought of looking into it.
I hope you can get it going though would be nice to see what can be done with this device. now that i have this down i want to look into making ports of something like AOSP or something CM based.

have you tried the tether mod to enable native tethering?

Got X Tether installed, seems to be working. I can enable tethering and connect and it doesn't pull up that verizon app.

---

Im still working on the tethering fix. Im currently uploading a HUGE update to the ROM. Its a pretty decent update. Enough to warrant a bump to v2.00. Should be about 2 hours before its live. My upload speeds here at home arent the greatest.

---

v2.00 is up. Improved a LOT of things. Huge difference.

---

So I just flashed this and don't seem to have SuperSU, anyone have a link to one I could flash? Or maybe I'm not rooted? I'm not actually sure if theres a difference between the two.
SuperSU says I don't have the SU binaries installed, how do I go about fixing that? It's been so long since I've done any of this...
Never mind I'm dumb, I figured it out. Needed to flash the SuperSU zip, not install from play store. God its been so long. Someone can delete this if they want.

---

Idk if this is the place to ask but what would be the likely hood of getting an ASOP rom? And or could roms from other carriers' Note Edges or the Note 4 work?

When it comes to the Note lineup, I stay away from AOSP. You would lose the use of the s-pen and the IR blaster. The two biggest things about the Note.
However, I'm already thinking about other ROMs for the other variants, and seeing what I can port over or integrate into mine.

With Wanam were you able to change the notification panel colors? The changes don't seem to apply for me.

Can't say I tried it. I didn't have Wanam installed for long, most everything I needed it for was covered by GravityBox.

Thanks-a-million!
Worked like a charm.

Apparently, CPG2 was just released by Verizon for the Note Edge. Its likely just a security patch update. Once I get my hands on it, will make another release from it. There may be another release between now and then thats based on CPD1 still, but we will see how long that takes.

---

hmm. I have an original dev edition. Im still on 4.4.4.
I have TWRP v2.8.6.0 I tried to flash the ver 2 ROM, but I get
" This package is for "tblte" devices; this is a "trltevzw".
Do I need to do something else?
