AOSP and S-PEN - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

What do I have to do to get rid of the Samsung and att crap. Keep spen features and benefits and get tweaks from aokp and other various roms. The only reason I stay stock is because hybrid is messy and aosp loses all the features I bought the phone for. Any takers? I know its complicated if not impossible but can you explain what would need to happen here?

Not to sound like a butt. But be pateint there are a lot of great devs and app biilders working on getting spen working properly on aosp and cm9. But in the mean time there are plenty of great roms that are debloated att crap gone and have all the spen features working.just need to read the op and pick which one sounds like what you want Flappjaxxx has a great rom out its le2 based debloated and spen features work.

I was under the impression that Samsung had released source for.the spen so im wondering when we will see custom shortcuts for the spen and the ability to use like stock Rom on aosp. Im just wondering if the day will ever come.

The S-Pen app has nothing to with having source or not. The problem is those apps from the stock rom need the TouchWiz framework.

So we would need to rebuild framework compatible cross launcher for aosp?

Cyanogenmod 9 questions

Hi all just upgraded from a galaxy nexus so I've gone fond of cm9 and stock(vanilla), android and was wondering when cm9 comes available to gs3 will it not be porting over a few features that makes gs3 stand out from all the rest like tracking eye movement or other such features
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Don't expect it in the beginning. CM9 will be just like it is on all other devices. The eye tracking and other features will be ROM specific to the Samsung ROM. I imagine that some savvy developers will come up with an add on for these features or even the CM9 team themselves to build it into their code but that will take time.
Should read this http://opendesign.bbqdroid.org/features
Ok thanks but would you stay with stock roms till the intergration of such features and implemented

If yo want those features, yes.
It's only a matter of time when CM9 would be released. They won't be making it but porting it and resizing it to fit in with dimenssions of the phone. exceptional features like the eye detection would be there if not right on the release. Though CM aims to get rid poitless stock apps and features, the main and usefull ones are not only kept, but improvised and implented in different ways. So ye keep your eyes out for it to come soon
Im surprised. Theres only one rom out lol

What would that achieve? Our Devs would have to port it, not theres, doubt they even have our phone.
You'd probably have to beg a miui dev....

hmmm...lol...was reading the development threads to see how easy it would be for a noob at dev-ing like my self to do it. The only factor that bothers me is not knowing the ins and outs of linux/ios desktop software.
Sounds and looks difficult. The Spen stuff is dependant on Touchwiz. So that must mean they somehow got all the touchwiz dependencies working in an AOSP based ROM, without needing an actual stock ROM

It would be awesome though, wonder why the links don't work anymore.
So I reached out to Gerrett the Dev who put together the Vengeance Note Edition MIUI Rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688646). He said he might be up for the challenge but he needs to know the differences between the International and ATT note from a Dev stand point, and will need volenteers to test the rom and send log cats. I expressed my interest in offering my help and I sure others will join in, but I just need some help from one of our Devs to turn to when he has questions about our device. Any Devs interested in helping out?

[Q] Samsung S Pen Apps on Custom ROMs

I am waiting patiently for the offical JB update to be released before I decide to root or not, if it still runs slow as snot I will consider rooting. But before I do, does any one know if it is possible to reinstall the S-Pen suite of apps on a custom ROM? Or would I just have to find 3rd party apps that would let me use my S-Pen again?
Glad you asked, I have the same question. I"m currently running CM10 with no major issues and wanted to check out the other apps that are S-Pen friendly.

I found this when I was looking to see if by some happy chance the S Memo and S Note apps showed up on the play store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ngarside.memo&hl=en
I am in nearly an identical position as you. I was holding off on root until JB. (I have rooted all of my other devices in the past). However in my case I gave up and rooted.... I found an app on the Note II forums for auto detecting if the s-pen was in its slot, and then changing the input method accordingly. (It did not work, and I think it is because the s-pen detection in the holder slot on the Note I, at least my copy, sucks).. but I digress...
I accidentally, having nothing to do with root, locked up my device, so I had to go into recovery and re-load the ROM/Factory Reset.
So I decided to try out a few roms... I have never been happier. The difference is night and day. (Using flappjaxxx stock ICS rom)
IF you go to a stock modified ROM, then you will maintain S-Pen. The key is to go with a stock based ROM. If you go with something ported off of another device then i don't know.
My advice, take the plunge, root, modified stock ROM and then see what JB brings. If it is anything like the past, you won't want JB. You will want the JB stock modified ROM. (Best of both worlds)
Your s pen will work on any Rom, whether it's
Touch wiz based or not. What you loose by using a non TW based Rom besides TW specific apps is the special functions like hold screen for screen cap, or double tap to bring up memo. Besides that the s pen works.

Only if the rom is touchwiz compatible. I'm using jellybeer. Awesome ROM but to touchwiz
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
OK, so if you want touchwiz, there is a chance you could still use Samsung S Pen apps on a custom ROM... OK. That answers it pretty well, I should investigate third party S Pen apps before rooting and going to custom stock based ROM. I hope the JB update makes the Note run a lot better and not eat my RAM like a fat kid in Willy wonkas factory, so I don't have to worry about it lol

Stock based Rom quality

I really am happy with the roms for our device up to date. Its not just the powerful hardware that gets me. I have plenty of other devices. Aosp, sense, touchwiz, blur. Out of all of the available roms. I'm really digging these LG roms. The launcher. Q-slide. Its all very functional for me. Oh and the calculator especially.
I think even though I'm dying to try Aosp on this phone like every one else. I think at the end of the day ill still be rockin an LG based rom. I was wondering if anyone else is thinking like me?

Umm... Quickmemo is on the stock ICS ROM, as well as some of the other ROMs based on stock like TheBase.

according to some people in these forums, being here and liking stock is a sin. You run AOSP or anything else non-stock or GTFO.
Sigh.

Yeah yeah. Some people get real ballsy on here. I flash what I like. Sometimes I use my cm7 defy. Sometimes other old phones. I've been on the base for a min. Now I'm playing with jb ports. I personally like them.

I actually prefer stock based ROMs. All the features of the phone work lol. I've been running The Base since I got my LGOG and have no intention of updating. The battery life and performance are flawless.
