[Q] could really use help deciding - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

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.

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.

Note2 thoughts, Feeler Thread...

For those who dont know me I dev with Team Slim, ROM is called Slim Bean, located here. Anyway I have tossing the idea of getting the note2 around in my head and bringing Slim Bean 4.2.1 to it as well If your interested in Slim Bean on the note2 drop a post so I can get a feel for how many want to see Slim Bean on this device.
What kind of question is that.... of course we want you to create a rom here. I use to run slim on my s3!! Amazing work

The more the merrier I always say. I used to test roms so if you need anything just ask.

Well I had a similar thread for Slim Bean on d2usc. Got it up and running but interest just wasnt there, tester stopped replying and whatnot. The ROM was bug free to, as it was 4.2.1 version, IDK, some peoples kids I guess, lol.
Me definitely

**** I forgot lol I remember now. I remember I tried out his ROM for a bit. I was thinking of someone else who made a slimmer TW ROM. Now that I look back at my S3 backups I remember. His ROMs were still really damn slim. The only ROM that was slimmer was Liquid but Slim still had lots of features while maintaining that slim package

All the tw based. Just look in development (not original development) almost all of them do.

[Q] TouchWiz Roms obsolete on Fassy?

Hi, I'm using my Fassy as a temporary replacement as I sell my Note 2 for a downgrade on Swappa. You might be asking why in the hell I'm selling my Note 2. Trust me, I don't want to sell it, but I have to for extra cash.
Anyways, I'm looking through the Development thread and all I see are AOSP roms. My question is, where are all the TouchWiz roms?! I like to rock stockish TouchWiz roms on Sammy phones. So I'm assuming developers are no longer producing TouchWiz roms for this device. In that case, can you, XDA, provide me a link to the most-recent Fassy TouchWiz rom with a modified TouchWiz kernel?
A Thanks will be given to people that help out. Thank you! :good:

Ha you're right. I didn't take that into account. I know Samsung won't be able to upgrade this to TouchWiz 4.1+ lol
Thanks to you, sir.

S4 camera mod/apk for TW based ROM

Does any know if there is an S4 camera mod/apk that will work on TW Based ROM
- I have a Verizon Note 2 running Jelly Beans Build 20.
I did find a S4 camera from Alliance ROM but before I try it, I wanted to know if there is a better option.
I'm real skeptical that the S4 camera will work for me on my current ROM.

You should probably edit your title and put [REQ] in front of it, because your title now implies it's in this thread.
I will say I want this mod too, but I doubt it's gonna happen. Too many differences. It would be a hack and slash probably with not many features and mostly a different interface.

Best Verizon Note 3 ROM out there....

☢ [ROM][4.4.2][NC2/NC4] *** Got bigginsROM? V5 ***[6/26/14] ☢ I have to say is the best ROM for a Rooted Verizon Note 3. I have tried all ROMs that are stable and form Battery Life to the Visuals, hands down BIGGINS know what he is doing. Keep up the great work and hope to see what's coming in the future. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733275 . In know way at all was I told or even contacted to post this. I just wanted to help anyone out there that was wondering what ROM to choose. Enjoy it as much as I do.
I agree Biggins rom being a top contender along with Baja's rom. Rite now i'm running Biggins V5 and patently waiting for Baja's and sbreen94 next build. I used Hyperdrive has a daily driver on my S3 and for a long while on my N3. All great developers. Much respect
I totally agree that Baja and Hyperdrive are great ROMs and developers. Many thanks to all their hard work. I had Hyperdrive as my daily driver for a while. As of now, I am loving Biggins V5. Im one of those who loves to change things up, so I am always changing my ROMs. Can't wait to see more to come from all these GREAT guys!!!

Eclipse is hands down my favorite.
Everyone is allowed there own opinion right.
But no one can do true AOSP code on a locked bootloader like @nitroglycerine33.

I havent tried out the newest release of Eclipes. I was never a big nova launcher fan, thats what kept me away, but now with the new google now launcher I might give it a go. Im just thankful for all the hard work these guys do to make our machines BEASTS.

Newest version of Eclipse comes with Google Now Launcher (or whatever they're calling it now LOL)

Edit - fixed
I have tried out baja rom, hyper drive,eclipse rom.. My fave rom is eclipse by far, best battery life and aosp styling is nice. The other roms are good and i'm looking forward to trying out rom updates on the new safestrap slots.
not generally a fan of these threads since i appreciate all the devs and the different stuff they create but since the rom isnt mentioned here and has been the most updated rom i have ever used on a locked bootloader device then i have to make sure that @hsbadr with his Jasmine rom gets listed.
he is also about to launch a FULL S5 port with the Note 3 specific features injected.
thanks to all the devs listed and not
I originally opened this thread to see what users had to say about a ROM. I put my opinion and read many others. Since the first thread was posted I have tried other ROMs that were mentioned here. Purpose was a success. THANKS Again to all the hard working developers that make these forums worthy and make our phones outstanding!!! As I have said before in other posts, keep up the GREAT work and can't wait to see what's on the horizon
