**Update about the future of this project. We will continue to update and support this port until the majority of users are running our new project.** http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432621 it is not ready yet at all. But I thought id post a heads up well in advanced so nobody freaks out.
This is a port from the 9505 Google Edition system dump that was posted. It was originally meant as a proof of concept build but no one picked up the project so I am supporting it.
@hlxanthus has been continually working on mods and feature updates within the ROM. I have a shared folder where we can both access current files for the project. Be sure to thank his posts :good:
Current Build: 9/11/13
Google Edition v6.0 Aroma Deodexed

Changelog:
Aroma scrolling fixed
All apps updated (I think at least... G+ updated right as I went to upload so I had to kill it and update and re-up)
Aroma permissions changed to hopefully fix all the random FC issues
Big update for xposed framework.
- in the installer it now lists all modules and their versions. I did not update all the modules because of this. Honestly I would only install the framework now and pick the modules separate. I still use theme engine, xblast, and gravity box personally.
I was working on new builds of systemui and framework-res but kept getting FCs so I reverted those changes. So carrier label is still screwy but you cab change it with the xblast module. :good:
Overall this update is minor besides the xposed framework. But the weird FC people were getting MAY BE fixed.
Please report any bugs. With bug reports please include a syslog log or adb log. It is also helpful to include the aroma log. To get this just before the last continue there is a save log button in aroma. Thanks.
Options:
A Lot
Wipe or dirty flash
One aroma for both pure and tweaked now
Browser selection
Gapps selection
Launcher selection
Clock options
Navbar options
Extra useful apps options
Phone_Info(a shortcut for the already built into android hidden menu *#*#4636#*#* this can do no wrong, it is just a link to a universally built in android feature)
Keyboard options
Battery options
Quick reply mms option
Viper4android option
TW camera option
Watchon app
TricksterMod app
Xposed framework and modules to be able to change quick settings, carrier label, colors and placement, and also fully theme using xtheme
Lots of kernels to choose from (I'm using my tweaked audism kernel)
Init should be installing properly with all performance options if so desired.
Instructions:
Download
Reboot to recovery(I prefer and HIGHLY recommend using only TWRP-2.5.0.2... will include flashables in next post)
Backup your current ROM(if you want)
Install and select your options
Reboot
If people want to donate it is appreciated but not expected. My pp Addy is in my profile or click here
Thanks to all who have already. My wife is slightly less irritated by my android obsession lol.

[RECOVERY LOCKED/ME7] Safestrap Recovery v3.5x [WIP DISCUSSION]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448726
Roms that work with safestrap
Like all Roms... Mine installs a kernel at the end... Since this project actively supports MDK... It installs an MDK kernel. Which is covered in the three threads I linked to above(which you should have already read). Hint: flash the provided kernel fix from the SafeStrap O.P.
AndroidSlave said:
Just a tip for ME7 Safestrap users:
Install this ROM in custom mode in aroma with only minimal apps installed, including Google apps etc.
I tried the install many different ways and kept getting issues, hard and soft reboots, etc.
After install with just nova, only Google play store, and just a few other minimal things, everything is amazing and smooth. Then just manually install everything you need.
For some reason safestrap and the me7 combo causes issues with something.
Just my two cents. Thanks a million to @Dubbsy - beautiful ROM - matter of fact, if I didn't have this ROM combined with gravitybox, I would have returned this device (I'm still within the 14 day grace period)...

ALL my generous donators. I do this as a hobby for fun. It's always greatly appreciated to get those emails. :good:
@buckmarble for kernel and rom/project discussion
@Treken for help and rom/project discussion. TeamTrek for ChaOS project
@hlxanthus for being a great partner on this project. We are easily twice as far along as I would have been alone.
@MrMuzik for the help on the banner

Rujelus22 for his AIO and the knowledge I've gained by digging through BluKuban for VZW
Actual Bugs:
**don't mess with the network settings. If you do, use the phone info app choose CDMA/lte auto prl.
**Carrier label is still screwy and shows up a jumbled mess for half the people.
Data Fix for those that went into network settings:
Going into the built in network settings automatically sets your preferred network to WCDMA. Meaning, no service. The only way to get it back without jumping through a bunch of stupid hoops is to use the built in hidden dialer code *#*#4636#*#*... Or just use the app icon called Phone Info(does the same thing)
To fix:
Go into mobile network settings.
Verify that your CDMA subscription is set to RUIM and not NV.
For good measure go into the rest of the options and set it to CDMA/LTE, automatic, and allow data roaming.
Back out to your home screen.
Then go into Phone Info app.
Scroll to bottom and tap radio off.
Open the drop down list and select CDMA/LTE auto (PRL).
Turn the radio back on.
Reboot.
Upon reboot open Phone Info again.
Verify it is set to CDMA/LTE auto (PRL)
** you should have full service now * *
** if not * *
In Phone_Info(*#*#4636#*#*):
Try CDMA auto (PRL)
Then try CDMA/GSM/LTE
If those still don't work then your nv_data needs reset. The only way to do that is in the hidden menu dialer codes in a touchwiz-stocktype rom :good:
If you destroy your nv_data and cannot get data back via the above you need to (stop screwing with your network settings)flash back to a TW ROM, enable hidden menu, and do a NV data reset via dialer code. After doing that make sure your phone is not in modem mode under diag dialer code. Until I update this section Google is your friend. And it is available information, verified. Your lack of searching skills doesn't mean pester my inbox...
"Bug" Fixes:
Reboot when hit volume up or down:
-Open gravitybox and deselect the 2 items that are checked under media tweaks
Carrier Name is a jumbled mess
-Install XBlast xposed module, enable it, open carrier section, edit it to what you want it to say.
WiFi doesn't turn on at all
-user error, check the download's md5 number
-user error, dirty install, do a full wipe prior and see if that was the issue
-kernel error, not likely if the above 2 have been done properly
GPS doesn't work
-user error, check the download's md5 number
-user error, dirty install, do a full wipe prior and see if that was the issue
-AOSP bug in general. TW writes something to a partition that stores your GPS location and area. AOSP roms don't edit it or write it. So you need to get a GPS lock in a touchwiz rom, then flash back to this. You can make a backup of your current AOSP/GE install, flash a TW rom, get a lock, and restore your backup. This has been a continued known issue with all ROMs that aren't fully TW.
Changes/Old versions:
-v1 was to see if I could get any data on the 9505
-v2 was fix reboot issues on v1. It is still the half odex half deodex
-v3 deodexed, s-voice, watchon, tw camera, tw wallpapers, build.prop tweaks, no native superuser preinstalled. https://copy.com/1Ce0m

WARNING
Don't change a recovery from within goomanager or rommanager or romtoolbox or any app installed on the phone while on my GE rom.
Download a flashable recovery or manually Loki and push it from your computer.
Recoveries that are pre-loki'd and ready to be flashed in your current recovery are posted below.
I personally only trust and use TWRP 2.5.0.2(2.6 is buggy). I've seen too many "issues" with ROMs totally disappear when people stopped using cwm in favor of twrp. But cwm recoveries are included below regardless.
TWRP 2.5.0.2:

ROM is now also available on ROM Manager! Also, additional options have been added to the Rom Manager download, such as optional installs of the Fascinate's stock Mms.apk, puzzle piece lockscreen, and visual voicemail.
So here's a ROM for all you trigger happy flashers out there. It's based upon the DI01 ota update, with ALL vzw/sammy bloat removed (even the power up jingle is gone) and some aosp apps thrown in. Also included is the stock 2.1 lockscreen.
All apk's are deodexed/optipng'd/zipalign'd, aosp apps built straight from source (available on my github, github.com/jt1134). TouchWiz launcher has been replaced with ADWLauncher. Also included are fully functional busybox and bash binaries. A custom kernel is NOT included in this ROM.
This zip will format /system, data wipe likely NOT required, but it's always a good idea. Flash it with ClockworkMod recovery.
Enjoy, and please stop with the useless threads. Thanks.

If you get fc's, wipe data/cache and/or fixpermissions from ClockworkMod and/or try booting first without your sdcard inserted. That media scanner is a skank ho.
EDIT: replaced Calendar with stock TW Calendar, added working CarDock and a few misc. apps that may help with the issues people are having.
EDIT: readded TWLauncher for those that may want it. sync issues *should* be fixed. also added a few other misc helper tools.
EDIT: also attached is an update.zip to restore the puzzle piece unlock screen.

EDIT 10/28 - version 0.3 :
added newest versions of:
Google Maps (4.6.0)
ADWLauncher (1.2.0)
Android Market (Froyo Version)
YouTube (latest Froyo Version)
new:
added nano (just for you ludeboy - untested at the moment)
added snazzy bootanimation for those with a compatible kernel
added EnhancedGoogleSearch.apk that I somehow missed before
*******************************
EDIT 10/30 - version 0.4 :
new:
added Bing-less Browser.apk from Mesmerize
added Contacts.apk with swipe to call/text from Mesmerize
added libsecgps.so from Mesmerize (light testing shows some gps improvement)
added additional hostnames to /system/etc/hosts for ad-blocking
added hacked lights.default.so from those with a kernel supporting BLN

can you use this with clockworkmod?
I will test, should we use odin or clockwork?
Awesome! So good to see a ROM up!!! Thanks guys for all the work. Can't wait to see this take off. Such a great phone and base.
Flash through Clockworkmod. F*ck Odin.
Regarding that strange bar across the calendar--I had the same issue when I did something like this for the HTC Incredible (except it was green). Ended up going back to the HTC calendar because of it.

Only noticed 2 bugs. The aosp calendar app is included, and has a weird grey bar across the top of the screen on all calendar views. Still investigating that. The other issue is an acore fc when putting the phone in airplane mode. It can apparently be safely ignored however, and the device does go into airplane mode.
Enjoy, and please stop with the useless threads. Thanks.

(theme) "MISSING LINK" aka O.Z.O.P THEME BUILDER and BOOT/SHUTDOWN INSTALLER 10/15/14
*"THE MISSING LINK" Theme builder (see changelog)
BEFORE MODDING YOUR SYSTEM ALWAYS MAKE A FULL NANDROID BACKUP!!!!
This has been built and tested on my T-Mobile S5
O.Z.O.P. ROMOne Zip One Place
I started out theming back on my S2 and created what is now called "Missing Link"
As any themer/developer knows, these things take test, after test, after test, to get things working and looking properly !!!
The problem is, every time things get left behind and garbage files build up until the ROM isn't running just how I like.
I USED to have to wipe everything and flash the Base ROM, then flash seperate file after file, or mods and theme options to get it back to where i wanted it and this is where O.Z.O.P. is born!!!
My idea for this project is to have One Zip file in One Place with EVERYTHING you could want or need to build a new and different ROM when you feel the need for change. So this will DEFINITELY be W.I.P. and grow with more and more to come, and go if need be!!
So Here is a run down of the options given to you during the Aroma Installation
Starting with
*Backup/Restore your current settings, accounts, Bluetooth/WiFi pairings, text messages and setting with call logs, very convenient when you are a pure flashaholic like myself.
There is definitely a right way and wrong way to apply your restoration.
Don't worry that I've testing it thousands of times literally.
click for instructions on Backup/Restore Script
Right now the complete Restore Script isn't working in the same flash session as the ROM install.
follow these to reduce problems
1) In recovery run the "Backup Script"
2) Flash the ROM (of your choice)
3) in the same session run "Restore Script" and any other mods you want. This will get your account sign in finished
4) let the phone boot up and finish the "Set up Wizard"
5) now boot to recovery and run the "Restore Script" and this will finish restoring your settings options and text messages.
if you have "force close of android.process.acore" or any other force close issue

Not Not v2.3 NG4 here
Missing Link plus v3+
Remember this is work in progress.
I am always open for new ideas and please let me know if things aren't working.
Thanks again.
This project wouldn't be possible without all of the brilliant minds here on XDA!!!
**Again, before you run this installer make a backup Just In Case!!
previous releases
*****Download Not Now v1 HERE*****
Fixes/misc downloads:
*Flashable TWRP 2.8.0.1
*Fingerprint Scanner
Instructions for installation
1-Download and place on internal SD card (either work, just quicker loading from internal card)
2-Boot to custom recovery or your choice
3-Flash the zip file of Missing Link you downloaded
4-Aroma Installer will run you through a list of option with multiple choices to choose from (if you're not sure what they are follow instructions to preview your choice while you using Aroma)
5-Reboot and you good, no wipe necessary, done
Instructions for Restoring your backup
1-You will only have a backup if you have flashed Missing Link or ROM Not Now
2-The Script creates a Flashable Backup and puts it in the NotNow folder on your internal SDcard
3-It will only keep 1 (one) copy of this file. It gets overwritten every time. So if you flash Missing Link and Then flash it again, you will no longer have the setup you started with. You will have a copy of your most recent Missing Link Theme. So if you want the "back to stock" copy, you will have to manually take a copy of the first flash from the folder and place it else where.
4-When you're ready just flash the Undo_Last_MissingLink.zip from recovery
5-Reboot and you good, no wipe necessary, done

NP. It's weird that it says that. I've seen with a few other Aroma zips from other devs too. Not sure why it says that, but the files always open with Root Explorer and they always flash fine. Let me know what you think of the mod options. Even better let's see some screenshots!! Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you
Im really looking forward to this,most other themes for the S5 have got abandoned and there is almost no nice theme around
Hey Stang, how you been?
Glad to see you got the S5. Maybe you could clone your thread over to Sprint S5 Themes and Apps as well. I'm sure the folks would like to play with this over there as well.

I'm doing much better since being dropped by Sprint for using too much" unlimited data"! I love this phone! I have been following your mod thread since before I actually had the phone in hand. So many good mods. The hard part is picking which to start with first. Unfortunately I've been having issues with my PC and decompiling correctly. I'm in need of a reformat anyways. That's a great idea about sharing this over to the sprint people. A few small adjustments and should work fine with Sprint version. Good to hear from you and keep up the good work. Thank you
This is very handy. I have a couple of suggestions that might help to get more people check this out quicker. Perhaps a quick tutorial in the initial post about how to use aroma? I only know how to use this through recovery. Is there another way? Also I think that maybe a pure dark theme would get people's attention fairly quickly. How are you able to theme pkm files with aroma? I didn't think that was possible. All in all, very cool. Thanks for the work that you you have put in. I'm looking forward to additional options.

Thank you for the comments. I will be working on you suggestions with new releases. Enjoy
Also I am not themeing the pkm images with Aroma, not Theming pkm files at all. I was surprised when I discovered them and disappointed when I found the difficulty in even viewing them. Hopefully soon I will get that part figured out. You can expect a whole level then!!
Anyways the OP is updated with a new link for Missing Link v1.1 update
Works on Sprint, too!
Working out the kinks.....but it does work.

Definitely still working out the kinks and testing new things daily! With the help of @Ryno1982 and his advice about the new pkm image files it opened up some options with the Dialers. I I will put together an update with these new options for a release this week hopefully.

Not enough info to help?? what options did you pick?
What ROM are you using?
What recovery are you flashing with?
Did you download to your phone or pc?
Where does it "hang"? Does it say "zipalign in progress", "optimizing system"? If so this part takes a little while especially if you picked every option. If it takes more than say 2 minutes, then something is wrong.
I would check md5, if that's good I would make sure it's on the internal sdcard. It works on extsdcard just much slower.
I have not experienced this problem personally, but every phone is different so let me know so we can get you going.
thanks for the input

It shouldn't take longer than 10 seconds, at most!!
This could be a Safe Strap compatibility issue than I'm unaware of? Have you flashed and other Aroma mod installers? If so which one with a link please? I would like to figure this out!!! Any info to a solution would be appreciated. You might want to try the updated v2 from the OP. Just released now. Let me know if maybe that one works?

So are you able to pick any options? or it freezes as it is begining? Do you see the splash screen image of Homer Simpson? Is anyone else using a safe strap device? if so are you having issues?
No splash screen..no option freezes on initial install on safe strap..never gets past it telling me installing

Feel free to install the ROM on any setup, and post your findings (as well as your partition setup) but, then please dont complain of cellular data/wifi/gps issues, I only support clean flash NC5 & NK1 officially.

FAQ
- WiFi not working? Try a soft reboot, should work then. You'll need to do this after every full reboot - FIX: Turn WiFi off before Powering off/Rebooting
- Must SELinux be Permissive? Although many AOSP ROM's require SELinux Permissive, this one does not, Chrome and the Play Stock work just fine! (Thanks to @bokchoi2020), If on NK1, flash the SELiniux Fix!
- ROM Slot Compatible? This can be flashed in a ROM slot, however, it /may/ affect WiFi in the stock slot (depends on your setup), and I do not provide direct support for ROM Slot Setups.
- Must I ODIN to NC5/NK1? Not necessarily, as long as you haven't flashed many partitions, for ex, if you had a custom ROM, and flashed a newer modem, you will have no trouble, but if you had previously flashed a different Non-HLOS, or hidden.IMG, it will most likely not work.
- MTP Doesn't Work? I'm aware, and @bokchoi2020 and I may have a fix in the works.
- I want x feature included? Post it up, but be specific, and use the "Feature request" tab at the top.
- Data issues? Use the vzw-APNfix.zip and use change APN from the Play Store. If that fails, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58598354
- Want WiFi Hotspot? Use the included WiFi AP app.

Suggestion taken, zip in the flashable mods section.
Note to all; If you are looking for a new feature, Could you please use the "Feature Request" Tab at the top? It would be very appreciated, and would help me keep track of what you guys want.
Cheers as always.
Didn't flash...
When I first tried to flash this, I got the following error(s): Error executing updater binary in zip ' /external_sd/Kitpopv1-02-01-15x.zip' Error flashing zip ' /external_sd/Kitpopv1-02-01-15x.zip'.
I'm running eclipse ROM, using the latest safestrap 3.75, and before I flashed I advanced wiped everything but external SD. Thoughts?
Is there a way to disable the on-screen buttons? They are nice and all but they take-up some of the screen's real estate

Looking into it now. Flashed this and tested right before upload.. it could be a bad download? Would you mind trying again? If not, then its a bad upload... and that means re-uploading on my end -_- sigh...
EDIT: Figured it out. I uploaded the unsigned zip. Re-Uploading now. ETA: 45 Minutes
Ugh.

Check the Flashable Mods section, but the ROM wont flash until the re-upload finishes in about ~30 minutes.
Upload Finished. Re-Download the ROM and try again for those that were having issues. This one works for me.

NICE WORK
v1.1 is Live! Any of the reported bugs experienced that weren't on the known bug list are fixed. Brings a lot of behind the scene improvements, as well as some CM Apps! Dirty Flash should be fine.

ROMs for the two variants of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016, 10.1") with S Pen:
WiFi+Cellular (SM-P585Y) gtanotexllte (other variants, SM-P585, SM-P585N0, SM-P585M etc. not tested for ROM compatibility)
http://www.samsung.com/sg/tablets/galaxy-taba-p585/SM-P585YZWAXSP/WiFi only (SM-P580) gtanotexlwifi (even this has not been tested since I don't have this device)
http://www.samsung.com/us/business/support/owners/product/SM-P580NZKAXAR
Disclaimer: No warranties, stated or implied. Flashing a custom ROM might void your warranty. If you download the ROM & use it, you do so at your own risk. The author or XDA are not liable for any issues arising out of the usage of this ROM.
Different people have different requirements, so I have made available two versions of the ROM:
- Lite (heavily debloated with almost all Samsung apps removed, since I don't use them)
- Full (No debloat/no apps removed, apart from Knox)
Current version - Nougat 7.0 ROM v2 (rooted with Magisk 13.3)
Download Nougat 7.0 ROM v2 for SM-P580 WiFi only
Lite: Google Drive
Full: Google Drive
Download Nougat 7.0 ROM v1 for SM-P585Y WiFi+Cellular
Lite: Google Drive
Full: Google Drive
Previous versions - Marshmallow 6.0.1 ROMS (no further development):
Download Marshmallow 6.0.1 ROM v2 for SM-P585Y WiFi+Cellular (its somewhere between lite & full)
Mega, Mediafire, Dropbox,
Download Marchmallow 6.0.1 ROM v1 for SM-P580 WiFi only
Lite: Dropbox
Full: Dropbox
(Additional disclaimer: I don't have the WiFi only tab, so I cannot test this ROM. It underwent the same process as the WiFi+Cellular model, which I do have, so it should be okay. If you encounter any issues, please let me know.)
Pre-requisites:
Enable Developer options by going to Settings -> About device -> Software info -> click 7 times on 'Build number'.
Now go to Settings -> Developer options -> Turn on 'OEM Unlock' & 'USB Debugging' if not already done so.
Caution: The stock ROM has Verifed Boot enabled with device-mapper-verity (dm-verity) kernel feature, which prevents a successful bootup if it detects any modification to the original setup. See details. This needs to be disabled if you need to install a custom recovery, or a custom ROM.
Download dm-verity disabler:

Download TWRP recovery:
LTE version - https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxytaba101lte2016spen.html
WiFi version - https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxytaba101wifi2016spen.html
Instructions - Install TWRP Recovery & flash DM-Verity disabler:
Transfer the downloaded file 'no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip' to SD card or OTG USB drive.
Download Odin 3.12.3 or any recent version.
Shutdown your tab.
Use Power+Volume Down+Home to reach the Download screen & then press Volume Up to confirm.
Use the AP section to flash the TWRP recovery.
After installing TWRP via Odin, uncheck auto reboot & manually go into TWRP to install the file 'no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip'
THEN, format /data, DON'T wipe it.
Booting to the stock ROM AFTER installing TWRP without doing this will show you a Verification failed warning, asking you to reset to factory defaults, since you basically overwrote Samsung's default recovery with TWRP, so it is cross with you.
Instructions - Install ROM:
Copy ROM to SD card or OTG USB drive (TWRP can have issues reading the internal storage)
Insert the SD card or OTG USB drive into the tab (very important!)
Press Power + Volume Up + Home & keep them pressed till you reach the TWRP splash screen
Swipe right to allow modification
Install 'no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip' from SD card or OTG USB drive
Format /data
From Advanced Wipe, wipe Dalvik/ART Cache, System, Internal Storage & Cache
Install the ROM, no need to wipe again since we already wiped & formatted in TWRP
Remember to remove the tick mark against reboot before clicking next, do NOT reboot yet!
Wipe Dalvik/ART cache (yes, again, after ROM install)
NOW, Reboot
Let the ROM boot, give it time
Install any extra applications you need
Bugs/Limitations & Workarounds:
Some APKs have been removed as part of the deknox/debloat, however, the appropriate system level modifications have not been touched in order to remain as close to stock as possible. So if you try to change a setting which relies on the removed feature, the appropriate app might force close, or it may continue to wait for the missing app. This is expected. Currently I have no plans to correct this behavior.
Software updates will not work.
Google Play Services might force close, so you will need to update it.
Samsung notes may force close out of the box. Just update it from Google Play Store. It will work after that. (zayi)
Accessibility service doesn't work on the debloated/lite ROM. Just use any third party keyboard like Swiftkey/Google Gboard etc & then enable the service for the application you desire. (zayi)

Extra recommendations for the tab:
Since SM-P585Y doesn't have a huge internal storage, just 16 GB, out of which, only ~9 GB is left for the user, you may want to use adoptable storage to use your SD card as internal storage. Go to this thread by ashyx to enable adoptable storage, whereby you have the option to convert your SD card as an internal storage unit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/how-to/patch-adoptable-storage-enabler-t3507387. The only caveat is that it formats & converts the whole SD card for use as internal storage & you won't be able to pop the card out & use it on your PC to transfer data, you will need to transfer data via the USB cable just like you would for the internal storage.
Go to Developer options & turn off Windows, Transitions & Animator animations. It would visibly speed up your tab slightly by cutting down on the slight delay introduced by the animations.
App recommendations (Free in Play Store):
'Xodo PDF Reader & Editor' for PDF annotation
'INKredible - Handwriting Note' for taking notes with guaranteed beautiful handwriting

Can we instal xposed in these ROM?
Gosh, saw a stock rom for the s pen model and got excited, until I saw it was the P585 only =[
Merry Christmas LTE guys!

I went too far in my debloating, which doesn't play nice with formatting /data, so I've added some stuff back & christened the new ROM v2. Uploading, should be up shortly. I've installed Xposed on it. Looks okay.
EDIT: New ROM v2 uploaded.
I don't use Xposed much, however, I was able to install:
Xposed framework ver 86.1
Xposed Installer ver 3.1
Modules: Xposed edge & Gravitybox (MarshMallow)
It seems to be behaving itself, don't see any errors in my rudimentary testing.

LOL, Merry Christmas, WiFi folks.
I don't think there's much difference between the WiFi & LTE models apart from the SIM module , so if you're feeling brave, you can try to install it.
Otherwise let me try to look up the WiFi ROM & cook t the same way. Your tab would have to be the guinea pig though.
By the way, which is the software version for P580? I saw this one online: P580KXU1APJ1 from November 2016. Any release after that?

Yes, that is an acknowledged bug.
However, I recently installed Xposed framework, Xposed installed & a couple of Xposed modules. Afterwords I again applied the dm-verity & no-ecryption zip and then again formatted data. Now Samsung Notes is back up running. Wondering, whether that has anything to do with Xposed, or the data format...
If you haven't setup a ton of apps, maybe you can just try to install the zip & format data to see if Samsung Notes works... However, it will mean starting from scratch again in terms of setting up your tab...

Sorry, I removed TTS in my haste to debloat the ROM, since I don't use it.
I guess if you do need it, maybe I can upload another version of the ROM with zero debloat, which doesn't have any apps removed. It would be same as stock in terms of apps, but you still have the other features.
Let me know.

I've created two ROMs for the WiFi model, based off the build P580ZSU1APJ3:
- Lite (heavily debloated, with almost all Samsung apps removed, Air Command removed too)
- Full (only Knox removed, all other apps remain as it is, Air Command works)
So now both 2016 S-Pen tab models are equally represented. No partiality any longer.
Jp
Appreciate the work. Is it possible to have a lite version with just the s-pen functionality left in or is that dependent on too many other apps? Or, is there an apk that can be downloaded to re-enable air command?

LOL, thanks. Its just selective debloat. Just more work, that's all.
These are APK's, but system apps, not user apps, so normal install like other apps may not work as intended, might be more messy, even if it works.
Air Command, the feature to pop up a selection of commands targeted towards the S Pen, is not a feature I find terribly useful. When I take out the S Pen, I use it for two purposes:
- Take handwritten notes with INKredible app.
- Annotate PDF's with Xodo.
Air Command just gets in the way, I have to dismiss it, causing one more S Pen click or back button key press. And keeps on showing the translucent button, which I can sometimes press inadvertently. Apart from Clock (I just like the white icon by Samsung, instead of horrible pale purple clock icon by Google), I just replace all the Samsung apps with the ones by Google. Hence the heavily debloated approach. I understand, Samsung Notes, with it OneNote like functionality might appeal to some people, the automatic prompt might appear cool too, even if its not for me.
Let me see what I can do, maybe a third, not-so-lite & not-so-full ROM. No ETA's though.

The tablet is my wifes and she uses this feature on the tab and her note - wouldn't be able to convince her to switch to a slimmed down rom without it

Starchild2k's Samsung Galaxy J700P Custom Rom
Information about ROM:
This a Custom ROM I built myself using SuperR's kitchen! There has been a lot I have managed to do to this ROM making it the best one for the J700P yet by far! I am very much so in the picture still for a CM13 release still working on it as we speak. In the meantime I have been working on a ROM that was made purely from the latest Stock ROM that was released for this phone. I left the system.prop alone to prove that it was in fact stock and if there was any future updates for this phone you would know and be able to get them.
Tweaks Done:
Rooted Phone
Deodexed Phone
Removed Bloatware Apps that was preloaded to the phone
Speeded up the Boot Time
Removed Boot Animation
Freed Up System Memory
Unlocked WiFi Tethering for unlimited use! (HOT SPOT)
Various System Tweaks used from Xposed Installer for system stability
Completely Removed KNOX!
Special Preloaded Apps Included:
SuperSU (Already ROOTED)
Xposed Installer With Preloaded Apps (Youtube, System, TWEAKS)
Subsonic Music Streamer with exclusive access to my music server for free!
Terminal Emulator
Root Explorer Pro
Requirements For Installation:
J700P Of Course!
Custom Recovery Firmware Installed! (TWRP,CWM,etc)
Installation Instructions:
1. Copy ZIP file to a external SD Card first (CAN NOT INSTALL FROM INTERNAL SD!)
2. Reboot phone into Custom Recovery
3. Make a complete backup to the External SD Card (I recommend using TWRP for this!)
4. Install The Zip File that is on your External SD Card (This Can take a little bit to install so don't worry it works!)
5. Reboot into System from Recovery
6. Done!
Concerns About Mobile Data:
If you are experiencing issues with your data connection not working after installing this ROM try using the activate phone in the settings if this doesn't work then do a factory reset and re-root the phone using the latest SuperSU.zip file. This will solve any issues certainly!
Future Plans:
1. Set Permisssive Mode to the ROM
2. Add some more kernel tweaks
3. Add Apps2SD Support
4. Add custom Pandora APK
5. Add Facebook/ Facebook Messsenger APKS
6. Remove PDA Update from Final Release

Nice with bro
I'm really enjoying using this rom. Everything is smooth for the most part, but there are times when the UI will reset, or it will freeze up at times when I'm on Youtube or Instagram.
I installed SeLinux Mode Changer, and used it to make the device permissive. It doesn't seem to be sticking on reboot though, which sucks cause I want Viper4Android active on my device.
But these are all nitpicks. I really do enjoy using this rom, keep doing your thing. Anxiously anticipating the finished out of beta version, man. Thanks for all you've contributed towards the J700P development, man.
I wouldnt worry about the SystemUI errors on Youtube I believe these are issues with xposed Installer with all the modules I preloaded and I will look into these issues and I will definitely have permissive mode released in my final release then on to finish CM13 and then CM14!

thank you for the work on the 700P version. will be installing soon!

Well this is a nice alternative for now. Less mess to get involved. Thank you sir.

Add Titanium if you can. I only say that so people can keep backups without having to Fandangle with adding it. Unless you have advice on another type?

I plan on releasing the final version soon and i will add the rebuild of twrp which you can do a complete backup of the phone through recovery but sure i can add titanium if you like no problem
TBH any way you make this is fine. I'm just glad to see the stock surpassing its potential. Reminds me of @Curtis1973 with his custom stock ROM mod for the LG Volt Last year. So many thanks to you. You and @minz1 pretty much kept this model in the loop of modifications.
1. Set Permisssive Mode to the ROM - don't, permissive has a bunch of secuirty compromises
2. Add some more kernel tweaks - okay
3. App Apps2SD Support - ok
4. Add custom Pandora APK - that can be added easily. don't debloat then rebloat your ROM
5. Add Facebook/ Facebook Messsenger APKS - ^
6. Remove PDA Update from Final Release - ok
Haha thats so funny u metioned the lg volt i worked on that phone as well i still have a volt i think it stopped on cm12.1 but i did want to rerelease and revise it to cm13 as well but for now i want to put all efforts towards the J7 on getting a stable cm13 and cm14 build
Is this the best stable Rom for the J700P to date? I've been looking for a good one for a lil bit now. So far from what I have read that it has everything that I'm looking for. Will flash this jewel soon if it's a go

Its better to set permissive mode on a kernel for scripts/mods to run better but if security is a issue i will put some antivirus like malwarebytes on it as far as pandora it wouldnt be bloatware at all it would be a custom version that can download songs by hitting a tumbs up and it also would have no ads and unlimited skips
Heck ya. I use the Pandora download version and its great. The main feature I saw was the bypass WiFi hotspot lol. I have a HTC desire I use for GPS only so I would like to wifi this phones data to it. Get live traffic updates and so on.

They made it to 13 on the Volt... I ended up making 6 'remix roms' that fixed the camera issue (KitKat)
They used LgG2 mini sources to get the phone up and running. Anyway.... Y'all got this.

You might want to look at this: download any format, no ads, background playback, and pop out window mode. Just a minimal amount to read to get it working.
Working on getting selinux to permissive permanently now!
See that's the things I like, modded stuff. Anyone have any other useful links or websites?

Does look to be off to an excellent start doesnt it? i gave it a 5 to encourage everyone involved to carry on with it. :good: i am in my own struggle at the moment on a new Alcatel device. The A621BL. Alcatel has it in beast mode with crippled fast boot among other over board protection issues. But root is not to far away.
