This is the stock 4.4.2 NK1 Verizon ROM originally found here, but has been de-bloated and includes some improvements I made to the stock apps and settings. Inspired by the old CleanROM series, I wanted to keep the stability and look of the stock ROM but with most of the needless bloatware taken out.
Tested for MDK bootloader only, but it has been reported to work with Safestrap.
Thanks @jrkruse for posting the original Verizon Stock ROM.

No, it requires a custom recovery for installation.
thanks a bunch. gonna try this out on a phone our rep says has voicemail password input issues.
Anybody try this on SS yet?
Download won't' work from mobile - opens mediafire page w/ a download button. Select download and goes to secondary "Authorize Download" screen w/captcha entry required. Only shows NK1_cleaned, tried entering that and got "you're entry was incorrect, please try again." Same in Chrome and Dolphin browsers.
From PC I don't get any captcha entry requirement - clicking download just starts the download.
Anyone else? I'm downloading via PC now and will transfer to my phone, but for ease of use it would be nice if the mobile download worked.
Thanks for the slimmed down ROM, gonna give it a whirl.
Installed, booted, and runs without issues so far.

"So easy, a caveman can do it"
AS ALWAYS use at your own risk. Not responsible for anything that might happen to your phone.
Updated DeSense for both, ICS and GB, roms. Changes are NO LONGER permanent.
What can I use this for?:
- set your mainver to accept any of the rezound PH*.zip files while using bootloader
- change look and feel of your rom from sense to something else
- remove extra apps not needed to use your phone
- install apps you need before logging into market
- easily reboot into recovery/bootloader w/o pulling the battery
- block ads
- fix bluetooth on ICS roms
Instructions:
** Must ALREADY be rooted before running (htc Dev Unlock)**
- HTC Drivers must be installed on PC
- USB Debugging turned on for phone
- Connect via usb and charge only
- extract zip somewhere and double click DeSense_v#.bat
- Choose option in menu
Extra steps (recommended)
- Prior to de-sense, log in to all your accounts and setup the intial syncing because you may not be able to once you have de-sensed. Syncing should work after you de-sense if you do this...
Optional:
- Nandroid backup your phone in case you run into issues.
Available options:
**1** DeSense for both ICS and GB
Removes Sense UI. Must have a launcher already installed!!!
**2** Fix Bluetooth on ICS roms
Thx to JoelZ. Click here and thank/donate!
**3** Restore
Restores all of the original apk's you have removed using this util
**4** Install apps (choice menu)
Included apps are:
- wifi tether
- es file explorer
- titanium backup
- Swype
- Nova Launcher (ICS Only)
**5** Remove more HTC, Verizon & google extras
Now removes even more apps!!! If you need something back that this removed, you can use any root exploring program to move the apk from /system/bkup/ to /system/
**6** Change Mainver to universal
Will set your MainVer to "1.00.000.0". This should allow you to install any rom's boot image without getting a mainver error.
Big thanks to drellisdee. Click here to thank/donate!
**7** Remove HTC Lockscreen
Removes HTC circle lockscreen and reverts to default android (NOTE: See Troubleshooting/Issues below, before performing this option*.)
**8** Install ICS notification bar and settings (!!!do not use!!!)
do not use this option as most of (if not all) the newer roms will not be based off the 3.0.11
**9** Install ad-block hosts file
This will block ads in your browser(s) and apps. Must reboot to take effect.
**0** Reboot (choice menu)
Reboot options
- into bootloader
- into recovery
- or normal
Change Log:
v7 -Changed ICS launcher to nova launcher
-Changed settings.apk to a stable one tweaked by romanbb
-Added "flash boot.img" option (use caution)
v7_1 - No longer deleting files, making a backup instead.
- No longer removing htc video (apk)
- Made flashing a boot.img even easier and fail proof
- No longer installing swype/wifi on system (applications were not opening on some roms also gives u ability to uninstall them)
v8 - Updated with new options
- No longer removing htc video (for real this time )
v8_1 - Made instructions clearer for new 4.0.3 builds
- correctly mounting system for option 8
v9 - Removing more extra apps that might be on your phone
- Added TiBu, ES File Explorer
- Updated wifi tether, nova launcher
- removed go launcher, mms, and contacts apks because of confusion (use v8.1) if you want those apks
Troubleshooting/Known Issues:
Wifi tether isn't working
- Open the app go to
settings > change device profile > "Samsung Galaxy Nesus (CDMA/LTE)"
settings > change setup method > "Netd (master)"
settings > check "Routing Fix"
I get error messages after removing HTC extras, Verizon/Google exras, etc
- Reboot your phone!!!
HTC Lockscreen no longer has shortcuts
- No fix available
*Need to unlock phone to answer calls
- No fix available, if this is a problem DO NOT uninstall HTC lockscreen
**Cannot click "About" & "ROM Control" in ICS settings
- No fix available, if this is a problem DO NOT install ICS notification and settings
**System UI crashes after boot
- No fix available, if this is a problem DO NOT install ICS notification and settings
- It only crashes once after boot, other than that I have not seen it crash again.

Does the wifi tether charge against normal data or will carrier detect and add?
Also, is there a list of all items frozen? I've been slowly freezing htc stuff with zerg/titanium bu and I know I missed some stuff out of caution/uncertainty/fear.
Thanks!
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
if you open the batch file with any text editor you can see what gets disabled. If you disable an apk twice, it will not affect your phone. So no worries about re-freezing frozen stuff.
wifi tether uses root to provide the service, i cannot make any guarantees to what Verizon will or will not do. I have been using this apk for a while without issues, but I am not making any claims. This stuff is always "use at your own risk"!
The program uses your phone data connection (which is part of your data plan) to provide wifi to other devices i.e. other phones, laptops, desktops, ps3's, etc. If you have limited data plan you can go over the limit using this app.
So i posted this in the Supertool thread - removing sense stops the gallery/album app from working properly. Does anyone know what dependencies the gallery app needs to work?
Thanks

I found the missing package is "com.htc.opensense". I'm not to sure what else this enables but I still have a de-sensed ui. I will create a batch file for easy use.
That was it. Thanks!
I understand my original .bat file is not working correctly... i'll update the original file when i get home later tonight. In the meantime you can use the frigid's super tool (link provided) although a lot of the features won't work for our rezounds...

There is thread on xda to use google now on ics. However i couldnt manage it to work on my 7510 even after following the steps twice. Is there anyone who managed google now to work on gt7510?
I had the same problem and flashed different versions and it still didn't work.
You have better chances asking in the Google now thread since they are the ones modding the apk. I saw there are 4-5 versions, which did you try?

Flashable ZIPs
M6 - Mikeyxda's version 6. This version has improved on the previous one by fixing the double take problem, typed searches are working, auto launch is fixed, as well as the following fixes from the previous version: Red mic with cards showing with no refresh needed, no FCs, offline dictation, and no stretched words. These zips all use zipalligned apks.
Offline/Online via Mediafire - 36.43MB /Hotfile mirror
Online only via Mediafire - 14.01MB /Hotfile mirror
M6-Velvet.apk Only
R3 - "Nearly there" version by ReekoTubbs. This version has the Red mic with cards showing with no refresh needed, no double take, no FCs, offline dictation, auto-launch, no blank screen, and no stretched words. These zips all use zipalligned apks.
Offline/Online via Mediafire - 36.48MB /Hotfile mirror
Online only via Mediafire - 14.07MB /Hotfile mirror
R3-Velvet.apk Only
M2 - mikeyxda APK version 2. This version resolves the double take, invisible screen, and auto launch problems. Sometimes the red mic screen doesn't show up. To fix it, press the normal mic, then hit menu > refresh to bring back the red mic. That's should get everything back to normal.
Offline/Online via Mediafire - 36.43MB /Hotfile mirror
Online only via Mediafire - 14.02MB /Hotfile mirror
M1 - mikeyxda APK Version 1. This version resolves the double take, invisible screen, and auto launch problems, but sometimes the cards don't show up.

I was able to get M7 installed, on and offline. I used Titanium Backup to check the System memory (thanks for the tip, I had only 25mb left and that was causing my install failure - although I never received an error installing the zip).
I can barely stand the GNow app though, it is horribly slow. I now have 35mb of system left (deleted files in System/app before installing) which is more than I started with. Any others seeing this problem?
Guys you that have Google now working, is your rom deodexed? Because it's stated it's a requirement on google now thread
No luck for GT-P7500
I tried both M6 and M7 on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7500(Wifi+3G). After I tap the mic it records my voice and then hangs. It then says Cannot Reach Google and after I click Try Again only does it display the result. Any fix for this??
What rom are you using? I had similar results when using roms based on the stock ICS rom, but better results when using CM9 based roms. I will say that there is still a slight delay between voice entry and actual google voice translation, but it is better than what I had with the stock based roms. I think the overall delay is due to the need for the ics voice input app to translate your voice and then input it into google voice, since the two are not integrated like they are in JB roms.

**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
Aroma package with lots of options built and pieced together by @hlxanthus.

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

[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)...

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.

-v1 was to see if I could get any data on the 9505

Dubbsy's Extras, Tools, and Resources:(this will be updated as I make or gather more)
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:

*To install the theme:
1. Rename the zip file to "ui.zip"
2. Make a folder in your TWRP folder called "theme"
3. Paste ui.zip into theme

*Note: not all functions work yet. Gallery icon is still linked the SecGallery. No more work will be done on the camera until both my other projects are in a stable condition. This was only done because at least one person posted or messaged me for it every day. I will ignore all requests for more camera work until the other 2 projects are "complete"
I'm going for it.

ask in the tuto thread if you have a problem... Or PM me...

How do I run it from the root?

Either you have the stock recovery : place the update.zip at the root of your Internal storage,
either you have an unlocked bootloader + custom recovery (TWRP 3.0.2-0) : place any .zip you want anywhere...
If you want a custom recovery, ask me.

No you won't need ADB...
Follow my steps :
You are on 5.1.30A
Install 4.5.0.0U or A
Root with the Meizu app "My Account"
Modify the file to spoof firmware type from China to International. (with that tutorial : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65533839&postcount=69)
You now have 4.5.0.0A, spoofed in G.
Simply install an International firmware (5.1.5.0G)
You now have 5.1.5.0G, no spoof : real International...
When 5.1.6.0G will be released, you will only have to simply install by downloading the update.zip to your PRO 5 with the browser... Then moving the file at the root with the file browser...

Greetings!
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:
https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/
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)
ROM features: See post # 2
Extra recommendations for ROM & App recommendations: See post # 3
XPOSED (was only tested on Marshmallow 6.0.1 ROM, NOT on Nougat 7.0):
Xposed framework v86.1 (you can then upgrade to v87)
Xposed Installer v3.1
Xposed modules & other stuff

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

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
