I wouldn't hold my breath. It will always take time for exynos-device to get a good stock android rom.

He ported it already... There's only a few bugs that need to be fixed before releasing it.

Those were pretty major bugs, and cross-chip winzip ports ALWAYS fail to go much further than "boots to lockscreen".

ppppfffff you again ??? you really need to stop this.......you don't like exynos device so go somewhere else there is nothing here for you......every time i see a new topic for i9500 i see a post from you bashing....

I like how they're doing that. As soon as you see a progress for exynos-device, they bash it for nothing.
@entropy even if there's some major bug, who care? It's going in the right direction. So when CM is released, it's always perfect with no bug?

The irony is that the supposed "pure" rom we have on the i9505 is not even pure google but a debloated TW ROM. So why do people even fight?

Agreed. Sammy effed that one up. Seems the 4.3 leak doesn't have any TW elements, though.

Not ignoring them, but if no one does anything, we won't get it at all. Now someone is willing to work on it, fix bug ti help the 9500 community.
If no one word do that, the rom won't appear magically like you seem to think.
CM aren't working on it, fine but let other do something for the 9500.

That's exactly what happened, but to say it was no big deal is foolish. It may not have been as awesome as building from the source that does not exist yet, but to get a bunch of noobs who don't know how to flash anything onto Jellybean and to even have the idea to extract the OTA from the I/O devices is a little bit more than "nothing special"
What I meant is that it could have been done sooner or later with all of the devs at io. What else do you expect them to do with a dev phone loaded with exclusive access to jb. Jeez I'm not trying to steal credits here look at my sig I'm not even a android user (yet). My point is it's not worth to celebrate something like that by opening a thread just keep going on existing threads.

The Jelly Bean OTA people flashed is just a preview, it won't be fully available until mid-july.

Galaxy S III 4.2.1 Port for our Note II

Hi there Fellow N7100 Note II Users
Since theres no rom this thread will be in general
I'm trying to port the 4.2.1 from SGS III
About the SDS you don't need to worry I'm using a secure kernel
but if your interested in help porting you can PM me!
So whats the progress?
So far it boots to the boot screen and there it stops.
i figured out i've missed some few things so i'll be fixing those later!
Once again if your interested in help porting give your time to reply and tell me what you can do :angel:
Best Regards LSD
EDIT: attached SGS III boot.img (http://www.mediafire.com/edit/?1nc7vr5ln6uy2hk)
EDIT: attached SGNII boot.img http://www.mediafire.com/?me2emfnsn0mgqd0
Also heres 3 "unpacked boot images"
Boot_NII is obviously extracted files from our Note II
Boot_SGSIII is obviously from leaked SGS III kernel
BOOT-EXTRACTED is from My Modified NII Kernel
i'm sure i've forgotten something but yet i'm not sure must read logcat more closely !
I am in.

Great to see that someone is interested int his aswell
heres a logcat when it was booting into boot screen http://www.mediafire.com/edit/?1nc7vr5ln6uy2hk
some changes was made in samsung boot.img
but that didn't seem to make it, maybe i need a kernel which works with JellyBean 4.2?
Hmm seems like i used old kernel instead of using the modified kernel. maybe thats why it didn't boot so far .
Did any of the custom kernels needed to be modified to work under 4.2.1?
It is saying access denied, maybe upload it to pastebin or as a file?
Btw got it working by removing edit from the link
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
But why? Official 4.2.2 is coming in 2 weeks from Samsung.

You are actually right. We won't feel much of a difference. It is too big a project. Samsung will release 4.2.2 sooner or later so there is no point. But i am idle due to summer holidays so nothing bad in challenging myself.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Yeah, but it should have at least one or two pros at least to be worthy of such an effort? Because essentially 4.2.1 on N2 is much more feature rich than S3, from what I gather. And you'd miss out on some N2 features as well.
I would like to test the rom if you are after testers when you have something working ^_^

The main features are spen and some note apps which I may not use at all. That's not a big problem.

well i modified bootclasspath but it seems to be something else that might be missing, maybe wrong permissions etc, or lack of files. can't really say now i'm trying to make it boot but seems like i've missed something in boot image or i've missed some files sadly when i used some other files it didn't go past the samsung galaxy note II splash screen. but i'll look into it. i think its kernel related, and yet i can't fix that now since i got to restore my phone so i can make my flashable zip tested. or i can but i need to take my time for that.
i neither don't know if anything have changed in 4.1>4.2 if there's something thats need to be added but i think it shouldn't be any big problem
Guys... the developer probably know there is a 4.2.2 coming. With all my respect for you, please do not repeat it again.
To the developer, keep it up! It would be very happy to test out some 4.2 a week befour everybody else!

I'll be trying to make it boot now again,
if it doesn't boot this time i'll go out and being mad when i smoke up my cigarette, after that i'll continue to try to make it boot :good:
if it was daylight i would go out each time it doesn't boot but i don't have the energy for that atm
bad news guys it seems like i have ***** up my adb (or phone) it doesn't recognize my device don't know the reason neither.
i can't do anything until i fix adb since my phone is only reliable on OS X.

Just my 0.02, but it is possible, and the fact that the One and S4 have the same processor would make it even easier than my port was

To start with, you guys would need at least a semi-stable AOSP rom to pull parts from.

It's difficult to dev for a device that you don't have. Especially for something as time-intensive as porting a proprietary UI...

Yes, I ported that.
And porting it for this device one would need to start fresh, because you can't port proprietary UIs using a guide.

Any AOSP ROM's in the works?

Maybe this question has been addressed somewhere on XDA, but I was wondering why there aren't any AOSP ROM's out yet for our Note 3. Just curious if they are in the works or what??
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
From what I understand AOSP ROMs require a new kernel, which we are unable to flash due to limitations from a locked bootlader.

DSIXDA Android Kitchen Support? Aroma support?

As of yesterday i have officially gotten the Galaxy Note 3 in my hands! With that being said i am now going to start development and try and get an awesome ROM out to you guys! Before i start i must know if DSIXda's android kitchen works with this device. And also if Aroma Installer is supported with this device. Really looking forward to start development and get a few Roms out there for you guys but i gotta know this first. Also feel free to let me know what you would like to see in a ROM, especially what kind of theme. My ROMs do have a history of having some kick a** sound mods in them so do expect that!

well, your reasoning might be good. Is it the Samsung crapware on the bootloader? I am not being funny, it's just that your answer was very brief and I couldn't see whether you had done any dev work on your member profile. If you have a particular and valid reason I would be interested because I am just learning and atm trying to figure out how to complile a cm11 for n3 9005 model. :laugh:

I'm a note 2 device maintainer for aokp but that's irrelevant. Locked bootloader + no way to flash kernels + no loki/kexec type option = no aosp roms of any kind. Don't waste your time.
