Just seen this and its exactly what im looking for can this ported..

Yes, it can be ported but you would have to find someone willing to do it. If you wanted to give it a try there are plenty of guides on how to port roms. Here is an explanation/guide by TrevE about porting between carriers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182461&highlight=other+carrier+roms
If this had been an AT&T, Sprint, or T-Mobile rom you could've used Scotts zip that fixes the libs and some other stuff. Unfortunately this is a rom is in the N7100, N7105 and the N7100 doesn't have LTE bands while the N7105 does so..... You *could* flash it but you wouldnt have 4G if it is a N7100 only rom, to get 4G you or someone else would have to add the Verizon specific files and support for LTE. This could also be a N7105 rom and would work with the patch from Scott. I honestly don't know enough about that rom, or the N7100/7105 set of roms, to be able to tell you if it'll work with Scotts zip or if itll have to be modded first, although in leaning towards it having to be modded for LTE bands first. You can always make a nandroid and give it a shot though, it shouldn't brick your phone.
Here are some discussions on flashing other carrier and the N7105 variant roms:

If you want to use one US carriers or N7105 variants roms you can do so with this patch from Scott:

[Q] Main reason for custom roms or the lack there of.

I'm sorry but this question has been bothering me for sometime. I have googled this question but have had no luck. What is the main reason there aren't a lot of custom roms like the international one has? I know our device is newer so I'm just simply asking. This isn't a complaint, ETA or a rant, its simply a question. I know when the atrix came out there were some pseudo roms out until the bootloader became unlocked and then the floodgates opened. Will most of the international roms make it over to this phone eventually. I'm sorry in advanced if this question has been asked before but I really tried to find it first.
the international phone uses a different chipset than this one so no none of the roms will work. the reason we dont have so many roms is because we dont have as many devs as everyone else does (my opinion) but this phone isnt that greatly wanted because of its size so we may never have a lot of roms. the ones we do have are great we just need more themes to go with them. you can port a rom from the skyrocket or t-mobile gs2 if you would like to. im currently running t-mobile ics rom now
Im hoping that theres lot of roms to come but what do i know. The phone is great, not sure why its not popular, yea its big but still sick.

How would one go about flashing a to gs2 Rom on the 1717?

I believe someone tried to flash a skyrocket rom to their note... didn't end well.
The moral of the story is: you can't.
Edit: unless you port it (something not so easy), as smartguy044 said.
You have to change a few files but it works. Im using tmobile rom with everything working great and a theme for the skyrocket

Uhhh, not wanted? The US version of the Galaxy Note has sold more than 5 million units since launch, 7 weeks ago.

How did you do it? Which ROM and what changes did you have to make? There's a considerable difference in displaybresolution, so I'm curious as to how you did it.

Eh. The main reason is because this phone is so new. It hasn't even been out for 2 months. Thats not long in the dev community. Hell, it took like 6 months just to unlock the bootloader on my atrix and even longer for ROMs. With ICS rolling out and the note gaining traction, you will see an abundance of dev help in the coming months

I agree that the Note is "wanted", which will eventually be great for future rom development. However, the figure is 5 million sold globally since the global version's release, not just the US market.

Better than I expected.
We just had a few new dev's join our team, announcement of upcoming cm9, ics release... i'd say we're in pretty good shape for some solid roms coming very soon.

This rom looks insane!!!

This Omega rom looks like it would be amazing!!! Has the most customization and stock look but can mod the sh+t out of it within the simplistic framework app...Ive been trying to get scott and beans to check out this framework and there looking into it...heres the link to the rom on in international note2 thread...my question is "CAN ANYONE PORT THIS OVER TO OUR VERIZON NOTE 2?!?!?!" thanks guys!!!

Ok, I just looked at it again and that ROM is just sick. Talk about a change log. Have you contacted the Dev about supporting the Verizon carrier apn, I mean Scott is using the GN2 international 4.1.2 code and added carrier support via Aroma so it begs the question could he do something similar?
Omega Rom is a well known/supported rom. I've seen a TON of people flocking to that rom on the International Galaxy SIII. I don't think the team has ever done a US Carrier version. A port would be nice though!

I also pm'd the dev, from his reply it seems its not in the cards at this time. I have neither the knowledge of ROM development or the vaguest clue how to do it, perhaps someone who does could see about making a port with the Omega teams permission or help. It would certainly be cool to have support in the US for it.
Scott's works is equally impressive in its own right, and from the discussions there its possible some of the features could end up in Scott's work at some point which would be cool. Though Scott is more about clean,stable and high performing "stock" ROM which is why I like his work. Not interested in losing what the Note 2 has to offer.
This had to be the best rom on the note 2... so many options.I'm sure someone knows how to port this. Just need the permission from the omega team.

huh.. if someone wants to try this ROM I thought Scott released a patch for 7100 based ROM's in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055218
So long as a the ROM doesn't include a recovery or boot image you should be fine... Just make sure you double check the install script is writing to the correct mount points...
I would check and test for you but I am at work ATM and have the kids tonight...

yea you might need to add a few more files for the radios.. should really try and diff a 7100 and 7105 stock ROM to see exactly what is different. if it more than just lib's and something in the framework we might be sh!t out of luck.. My guess is though that the needed changes in the framework are applied to all the bases that Samsung uses though... Like I said I wouldnt be able to look at it until sometime later in the week eitherway.

Glad to see you here kejar31, I ran a lot of your ROM work in the past and really enjoyed it. So many devices in 2012, but the Note 2 should hold me for a while or at least until the Note 3 comes along, but with our luck Verizon won't pick it up.
i think ima try to get something goin here...

Steal Firmware for 6.3 mega and make rom Note 2?

Sam mobile released firmware for 6.3 Mega 4.2.2 software today. Since it's basically a big note 2, can we port that firmware?

I dont see why not, you would either have to do it yourself or find a dev willing to do it

Like Shangrila said. Also you have to take into account Where is the Mega going to be released. Since it's not for the U.S. the Rils will be different. So there's going to be alot of stuff to port. You will have a lot of time on your hands picking thru the logcats figuring out step by step what to fix. Lol Alot of work. Guess that's why i've only done one port.

Exactly. That's why there aren't a lot of devs wanting to port whole firmwares from completely different phones that may or may not have LTE capabilities, I havent checked where the phone is going to be released or if it does or doesn't have LTE capabilities. It's just a huge job, porting a rom from a similar phone, like the n7100, is much easier when compared to something like this.

No Data Using Unofficial CM11 on Sprint Mega

I have tried using the unofficial CM11 for the i9205 for the Sprint Galaxy Mega. I understand unofficial means that this is not the actual CM developed rom and I understand that will bring certain functionality problems to the phone. I also understand the rom is intended for use on the i9205 but from what I'm seeing people are using i9205 root methods and roms on the SPH-L600. I'd love to use CM11 on the Sprint Mega seeing this phone doesn't seem to get as much love as the other Galaxy models. What can I do to get this working or what do I need to do if anyone can point me in the right direction.
Currently I am rooted with Philz using stock rom 4.4.2 modded with Xposed.
Im in the same boat you are. Hopefully someone can make a Sprint rom soon. Im having "flashing" withdrawals. Lol

[Q] Patch N7105 & other carrier AOSP ROMs for i605?

Since there are many CM12 based roms coming out for Note 2 in general, I was wondering if anyone figured out how to use N7105 or other carrier based CM12 roms to VZW Note 2. Simply replacing build.prop and apn config did not work for me as I could not get it to make any kind of calls. Appreciated!
I would love to be able to do this also. If I could I would load up Ditto N4 right away
