CleanRom for KitKat Note 3 - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General

Please Scrosler, make us a version of the great CleanRom for KitKat on the VZW Note 3 . Your roms are truly the best.

Scott does not own an N3 any more, so the odds on that are low.

As a user of Scott's Clean rom 1.5-1.7(or was it 1.6) - yeah it was sad to see him go. I've been very happy with Baja's rom - looking forward to the new BeansBaja combined work.

He says he is happy in "HTC land". I have tried to create a ROM in the spirit of CleanROM but no one is interested in an MJE ROM now.

I wish he would make one more note3 build tho. The only reason i tried bajarom, was to get my chromecast allscreen mirroring to work. Couldnt get it to happen with 4.3. As soon as I figure out how to get it working on 4.3 I am going right back to his last CleanRom build. I dont really care for bajarom. It also doesnt get anywhere near the battery life I was getting with Scotts rom.
I wanted to cry when he posted that he was moving on from the note3 to the HTC. Maybe I should just get an HTC and join him in HTC land.
Thanks for your reply anyways.:good:

So would I but without a N3 in his possession it is unlikely. I have informed him about this thread.

Thanks Ronald, but like you said,without a Note3 it would be pretty difficult for him. Ive donated before to him, but not enough to buy him a Note3 tho...lol. Thanks for telling him anyways.

You are welcome. I believe he works on an HTC M8 now.

I also was extremely disapointed. I use his rom on my 10.1 note 2014 also.

Scott always has done quality work. I've used his roms all the way back to the HTC Mogul, too bad he doesn't have a Note 3.

International Note themes work for AT&T version?

This comes from here:
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467985
The theme looks absolutely brilliant. I just ordered my Note tonight and the warehouse is relatively close to my home (guessing it will come around Friday or Saturday) and I'd absolutely love to put this theme on my phone.
I'm guessing there will be compatibility issues because of the different internals but I wasn't sure, so I asked here. Thanks for all help.

It would be great if we could use that, but no way we can yet. From what I hear the TPC ROM has some ICS theme stuff in it.

Well that's a shame. I read somewhere here on the forums that though Exynos is better in stock form, our S4 will be better when the development comes in full swing because Snapdragon is better for overclocking. I'll look to the positive on this then
Besides that, completely off the original topic, do you (or anyone else) think this link below of the ICS update applies to us i717 Noters as well?
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490986
Well, no one can be 100% positive when it comes to ATT and upgrades but the general consensus is that ICS is coming to the un branded international Note in March and Our i717 Note will get it whenever ATT gets through with it. Whenever that is??? Most people are hoping by the end of the year.
On a brighter Note, if you read the Development threads, it appears they're working on an AOKP version of ICS for our phone. So expect that ROM or one like it to come out sooner than the official update to ICS. So if you don't already know, start learning what you can about flashing ROM's.
Here's the thread about the AOKP ROM rumors:

And here's AOKP main page:

That is a great theme. As previously stated, dobt that it will work. Doesn't hurt to try it. That's what NAND is for, right.
Off topic again: What roms/modifications do you suggest I put on my Note when I get it?

End of the year? That's a shame. I'm semi-new to the Android experience. I got my Nook Color in December so I can flash and do the basics, but that's it. Asides from that, I really hope that "March to May" estimate on the International Note was close.

Support for Carbonrom Development on Verizon S4

Hi everyone,
I am taking a poll to guage interest in the S4 Community for donating to and obtaining Carbonrom on the Verizon Galaxy S4.
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. I am not affiliated with any of the development of this rom. I am just a huge fan of their work and would love to see this rom come to our beloved S4. Having a device in hand to develop provides better success in providing a quality product. I am hoping this poll will help convince Carbonrom to purchase an S4 and begin development of it.
Here is a link to their goo.im developer page!
http://goo.im/devs/carbon
So what say ye!
UPDATE 5/28/13
There is now a secondary Carbon paypal link located here:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=T447T4BPVX2TY
THIS LINK IS STRICTLY FOR DONATIONS TO HELP FUND THE PURCHASE OF A VERIZON GALAXY S4 FOR TEAM CARBON.
This link will remain open until the goal (cost of a used S4) is reached. Should the goal not be obtained, or one is obtained by Team Carbon by another method, the monies will be refunded. All donations will be recorded and added to the OP, so there is full transparency on our way to the goal. Let's help Team Carbon get this device so our beloved S4 can get some lovin!
DONATION LIST:
1. David M. -$10
2. Thomas S -$8
Yeee

I had some problems on the S3 and went to Liquid / I do think that the developer has some talent and even lended some support ($$) but eventually went to Liquid prior to selling the S3. On the Touchwiz side, ScottsRoms always worked for me.
Thanks for the support guys. If enough is raised, I'd definitely like to support this device. I'm convinced that like the s3, this is going to be as close as we get to a nexus on Verizon.
justreboot, i'm not sure when you had your issues, but 1.7 is very solid, and in my opinion the nightlies even more so. Either way, 4.3 is going to be a complete rebase. We've got some exciting ideas in store.
I would do dirty, unforgivable things for Carbon on the GS4.

Looking at loki, the new bootloader unlock, I can say we'll definitely need to have a test unit to dev with. I'm not willing to blind dev on such a nice device anyway - you end up with a substandard rom in my opinion - but this one in particular will need more attention, since the bootloader unlock isn't a released tool so much as something we would need to integrate into the build process. On the plus side, it looks like we'd be able to do so fairly easily so we should be able to still have nightlies and the like.

was a reply to Cordell's earlier post about integrating it into squisher. Didn't notice the page 2. I suck at mobile browsing.
I used carbon on my note 2, i would definitely be interested.
We're cooking up some ridiculous new stuff. I think everyone is going to be VERY happy.
Carbon rom was probably the sexiest thing I ever ran on my bionic. I would donate a few bucks if it helped get us support for an S4.
by the way, the experimental halo releases tonight were not the interesting things i'm referring to...

I should've been less callous when I made this post, but I'm aware of your GE attempt, and it's time for a more experienced dev to make this ROM happen. I'm really tired of the radio issues with yours. I've tried nearly every update you have created since your original and it doesn't appear a whole lot of progress has been made over the last month, In fact I'm pretty sure your 4.6 edition with smoother than this last one.
I constantly have issues with the radio, and the carrier banner has yet to be even removed (much less fixed, although I would just be happy with it being removed).
I appreciate the effort, but Im hoping that someone can create a smooth GE dump and have it be done with. I absolutely hate touchwiz, and Im tired of this touchwiz AOSP skins when the real thing is so much better.
Nitro's Eclipse s4 GE dump is pretty nice, but it still has the same radio issues as yours. But at least he got the carrier banner removed. I kind of like the inverted stuff too, but ive been waiting months to see the power of the GS4 behind stock android.... without ANY issues

You know what I meant, i just used a bit of hyperbole. Its AOSP with TW elements underneath. The AOSP may go a little bit deeper than the skin, but its still pretty much AOSP outside and TW inside. TW inside was the OP's issue, and its inextricable from an S4 GE ROM. If you take all the TW elements away, its not really a GE ROM anymore. Unless Dubsy misinformed us, which I doubt.
And the OP's other issue, the radio, is pretty much always the main issue when porting from another device.
GE GS4s are getting the 4.3 updates as of today. Hopefully someone will come out with a 4.3 GE dump soon (that runs smooth)... fingers crossed

Got to say I am with you on getting a good GE ROM. I have not tried Dubsy's latest, but nitro's 1.5 is pretty dang smooth. I had a few data drops yesterday, but I didn't notice any today (didn't use the phone as much, though), so if the data drops, it must come back. Going to be on radio all weekend, so I will get more experience with it. I think its stable enough for a DD.
Both Nitro's and Dubby's run fantastically with no data drops!
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk 2
I am really hopeful for Nitros. I was using his yesterday and liked it, but I still would like the radio to be ironed out.
Dubsys had many little issues that made it impossible to use on a daily basis. One problem I continue to have is that any phone number starting with "+1" must be redialed without the +1... half my contacts are like that and it is incredibly annoying.
For the amount of time Dubsy has had to work on it, I feel like this issues should've been addressed by now. I think I speak for a lot of the community here when I ask for a more experienced developers help on this GE port.
There is not and will not be a Google Experience S4 for Verizon. Porting the international version requires a ton of adjustments to make the radio functional for us. Dubbsy has really stepped up for us and done way more than he initially planned. Nitro took that base and added some nice things as well. Without their work, we may not have anything GE-related at this point. Be patient and have fun with what we get. Not good enough? Become a dev, or switch to AT&T.

I hear you about working too much. And I'm sure there are other devs out there working on their own GE projects. The way you phrased the op and title just discredits our existing GE devs' work.

True, but I actually am fairly upset, because while dubbsy claims to be doing this project, it may be detracting other devs from taking on the project themselves. I am getting tired of flashing each *new* update, which doesn't appear to be fixing any of the bugs. Then I have to odin, re flash etc etc, which takes hours of time. It has been over a month that I have been watching these projects and seen little improvement, and like I said, I am sure I am not the only person I speak for when I say this.

In my experience from other phones, 98% of roms are works in progress through the life of the phone. Yes most get to a "stable" point, which is subjective, but unless they're heavily stock-based it takes awhile if it ever gets to that point. Coming from an HTC phone I have seen devs jump ship due to forum/community issues, so I may be sensitive to these types of comment. I

I really don't care if you're upset to be honest. Don't follow my threads, and don't use my roms... Pretty simple really.
From the beginning I posted a proof of concept to prove data alone, nothing else. I said for devs to contact me and I'd send the files for them to maintain. When it was clear no one was going to pick up and run with it I started modifying the framework to be at least a bit more stable. With the open offer still out there to share a fully decompiled GE working folder in a shared cloud.

Note 2 TW ROMs fading away

Hate to say it but looks like some Note 2 TW devs are leaving the phone. Seems they are vanishing weekly. Too bad because there were some great ROMs out there and I hate to see some of them go for the VZW variant. Really sad that VZW and Samsung are making things so difficult for devs these days. Makes me wonder if they left it open just long enough to steal hard working dev ideas for themselves without having to pay an R&D department to test the OS. Looks like AOSP 4.3 ROMs are starting to take off though, and with the addition of the App Bar, Halo and a host of other mods by great devs we still have a few options. That coupled with great mod apps in the Play Store you can almost get the TW experience with AOSP now.
Or maybe they are moving on to other projects until we get the 4.3 TW update. Then, hopefully some of them will return and develop for one of the top devices still on the market. The Note 3 will most likely be locked down like the S4 so I am thinking the Note 2 may be the last great Samsung device open to rooting and having the ability to flash custom ROMs.
To all the devs that made (or still making) great TW ROMs for our VZW Note 2, thanks for all your hard work. I know I have enjoyed being able to try different ROMs and tinkering with them. You all deserve donations and our gratitude. You guys and gals make the Android experience enjoyable for all of us.
I'm sure they will be back when we get the 4.3 update. This is the only phone that has an unlockable bootloader, with TW on verizon that's actually decent.

What's wrong with the s3?
I'm sure the s4 will have an unlocked bootloader soon, especially with the 3k+ bounty.
TBH, this is what always happens. it makes sense that the devs move back to the latest phone. plus the note 3 is coming out soon too, so, yeah, pretty sure what happened to the s3 will happen to the note 2.
at first I really liked TW, but then I switched to the PACman rom and I haven't looked back. the features on TW are nice, but honestly I don't use them that much. i know every user varies, but there are a lot of apps out there that replace TW functionality. I really haven't noticed since switching. I just was unhappy being on 4.1.
As a TW ROM author for the S3 I can tell you guys TW has its limits and there is only so much we can do so we are all awaiting the 4.3 upgrade. We can mess around with themes and included apps, inverting things, but there are limits. It is not like TW has a nightly source code to keep building from. Just be patient and maybe play with some different themes.
Also keep in mind that the xposed framework has removed a lot of the necessity for a true custom rom as it does just about everything that previously had to be hardcoded in. Most custom roms anymore are really just themes with xposed installed by default.

The S4 wont be unlocked...however Im sure something like Kexec or Safestrap will be used to work around the Locked Bootloader. If you read into the details of Qualcomm processors and qfuses, you will quickly learn its pretty much impossible.
JB is still a very active rom, as is Nebula. One of the problems I have run into is that many of the roms are built on the international base. Cleanrom was the perfect rom for me but unfortunately Scott has moved on.
Jellybeans = very active, but I personally seem to always have little issues, I have however never seen anyone else with them.
Cleanrom = dead, but rock solid stable for me
Transnebula = Great support, and very active, however the tab UI just does not work for me... I would KILL to have these guys put together something like clean rom but with floating multiwindow. (One of the devs is also f&*(ing Batman in disguise I swear, listening to his gadget list is bloody awesome)
Lab Rats = a theme beast, but I am not really into theming, seems to me there is always something not quite right with custom themes.
There are also a few international based roms that are very active.
Edit: Oh yeah, also beware flashing Lab Rats at work unless you want your co-workers making fun of you for the boot up sound

Just be patient and maybe play with some different themes.

Agreed. I actually missed my GS3 for about 2 months until the N2 ROMs started picking up. Now I'm digging PAC Man 4.3 and can't wait to see what happens with TW 4.3. Just hope the devs migrate back eventually. The N2 is a great device.

JB is still a very active rom, as is Nebula. One of the problems I have run into is that many of the roms are built on the international base. Cleanrom was the perfect rom for me but unfortunately Scott has moved on.
Jellybeans = very active, but I personally seem to always have little issues, I have however never seen anyone else with them.
Cleanrom = dead, but rock solid stable for me
Transnebula = Great support, and very active, however the tab UI just does not work for me... I would KILL to have these guys put together something like clean rom but with floating multiwindow. (One of the devs is also f&*(ing Batman in disguise I swear, listening to his gadget list is bloody awesome)
Lab Rats = a theme beast, but I am not really into theming, seems to me there is always something not quite right with custom themes.
There are also a few international based roms that are very active.
Edit: Oh yeah, also beware flashing Lab Rats at work unless you want your co-workers making fun of you for the boot up sound

Beans just got a Moto X so I hope he builds for the N2 still after 4.3 drops.
Haven't tried Trans yet. Not a big tablet UI fan.
Still need to try the newest Lab Rats

I could not imagine going from the Note 2 to the Moto X lol
We have patches to run roms from other carriers, as well as rock solid roms that work flawlessly. X posed has opened up almost endless possibilities, and active themers(<is this even a word?) )help the look of a lot of the roms we do have. One of the best things we have is a bunch of good natured members willing to help, and learn. This goes a long way. New developers are born every day. Some will leave, some will stay. Heck Deckoz just started. Trans nebula is his first rom. This phone is a nice piece of kit, and unless I can get a xperia xl super cheap, and working flawless on Verizon, then I am staying put for awhile. You guys are stuck with me.

Honestly it's a gorgeous device. Almost pure android on it, some nice moto features. I would get it if I didn't have a note. It's honestly still in the back of my mind to get one. It's smaller yeah but it's got a really nice feel in the hand. Very smooth running device

Feel the same as the op but remaining hopeful and patient. Really sad to see cleanrom go and nothing really along those lines. I like beans also and not sure how much more he can do with it until there's a 4.3 to work off of. I've been messing with nova themes and other mods to keep me busy. That and just enjoying the phone with what we have.

Nova and the host of goodies and apps has made the TW experience more enjoyable until 4.3 drops. I realize the TW devs are limited until the next update. Heck I flashed back to Beans just to mess with X Posed since I really never have in TW roms.

SSLauncher is pretty cool as well. Looking forward to trying all kinds of possibilities.

Kenny,
Since your are reading ( and cleaning- thanks!) a lot of posts I wonder if you have seen any ExFat support for AOSP roms.Actually I want to be able to format a 64GB sandisk and be able see all ( most) of 64G and be able to put files larger than 4G.
Any AOSP roms/kernels with such support?
Many thanks
Abe

Looks like it is mostly CM 10.1 support but found these : http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=Exfat on cM
Updates are great, but since TW has its own limitations and we've had 4.1.2 for how long now? Tweaks can only be so tweaky! 4.3 will breathe alot of new life into our phone. I am not upgrading to the N3 lest something makes it more desirable. But seeing that we get the same update it will have, I am willing to wait a month to see what happens.

New owner here..

Hi everyone,
Swapping my Galaxy S5 out tomorrow for the One M8.
The S5 is a great phone, but it is too locked down, and I love rooting and roming! Just wanted to say Hi, and am wondering what everyone recommends me do the moment I get my new phone.
Also does anyone know if we are getting any roms from the big guys like Pac-Man, AOKP or Cyanogen?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!

Welcome !!! I did the same thing as you. I had the S5 but it was too locked down for my tastes, and honestly I think that the M8 is easily the best phone built to date. Noting really comes close IMO. As far as AOSP/AOKP goes, check HTC One M8 Development Section almost all (assuming there is at least one that won't) will work on our AT&T M8's and if there's not an AOSP/AOKP to your liking yet I'm sure plenty more are headed this way. The development so far has been great and I've only had the phone a week so far :good:
