I did search around for this and even on Google I don't think I got a clear answer. Does a plain jane AOSP ROM exist for the Verizon Note 3 retail? I don't care about losing any of the phones features due to this. I've seen the Eclipse ROM but is that the only option? Thanks in advice!

not unless the bootloader gets unlocked...
Thanks for that info. Just so I understand, the bootloader on our phones is not currently unlocked and probably won't be unlocked in the near future?

i want to root my evo 4g, i have updated the software version to 4.24.651.1, the android version is 2.3.3, i see in the threads about ota's and other stuff that i have no knowledge of yet as i've never done this before, is there a thread explaining all of this and can i root with the new software update? or can i go back to old version of software? thank you anybody and all who help, i appreciate it.
Until HTC unlocks the bootloader, or someone finds an exploit, if you're s-on...you're out of luck...for now.
That sux, i was really looking forward to trying it out. Thank You Mattykinsx.

Have no fear, root will come one way or another.
It always does, for HTC phones anyway.
Is anyone actively working on it? I'm sure someone must be. And if so, how close are they? Wife wants her phone rooted, but it's updated to the latest. Unfortunately we didn't know beforehand that it would be a bad move.

LOL! Thanks for the warning. I'll be sure to watch out for that.
anyone know an easy (noob friendly) way for me to upgrade my software on my original galaxy tab? it is slow and boring =)
why not search for a post that is related to your query.
that might help.
i tried
didn't really see anything
plus i am looking for suggestions =)
maybe if you told us which tab you have, we could make some recommendations...

There's actually quite a large range of Tabs, both GSM and CDMA for carrier-specific models (like Springs SCH models) and country specific variations like the P1000 T/L/N/R etc.
Also, you might want to try and search again to find what you're looking for since there are bounds to be instructions (like those included with releases of the Overcome ROM for example). Remember also, that the best method would be to simply connect your device to your PC running Samsung Kies and check for an official release before you get too far.
In future, try and be VERY specific about what you have, what you're looking to a achieve (custom ROM/stock upgrade) and what you have to deal with: things like what device you have, what computer you're using etc. This will make it a lot easier for the community to help you out.

there are at least three-four distinct models of the Gtab, CDMA, Wifi, GSM and Tmo US GSM. Since you have the latter, I'd recommend the Overcome Kratos rom, at this point. But there are other choices.

I have a sprint galaxy s4 with the mja update. It's not rooted. I have no wifi at my house because my parents are cheap. I need to get a custom rom to unlock the factory hotspot, I'm not looking for crazy customization. Any smooth rom will do as long as it's compatible with my phone. What's available?

You can always just root and install the hotspot mod.
I'm seriously thinking of buying one of these with the "1.7GHz octa-core Cortex-A7 CPU; 2 GB of RAM" version.
I'm not real happy and the operating system but I have read that lollipop has been installed and there are instruction for doing so.
However it did not state which version it was installed on?
Will it work on all versions?
Thanks...

Where did you see one for the Note?

I have that feature but I did not notice it at the top of the page.
I like these roms better better
The obstacle against better ROM's is the lack of the kernel source.
This why developers here don't do much with Miui.
Don't see this changing, so just have to find ROM's elsewhere.

Maybe things will break loose before long because they are selling a lot of these devices.
BTW; Will these roms you pointed me to work on the version I'm interested in?

I have the Redmi Note 1W. It was sent to me by a friend in Malaysia.
Can only get 3G as it lacks the bands for LTE.
There is a newer version out for 4G/LTE.
Not sure if it has the bands necessary for the U.S. since it is sold in Asia
and Europe.

I love rooting just to install sun dreams SRom...he's now not doing them anymore so that combined with the fact I want Oreo and the M9 is so wonderfully fast might stop me.
I will certainly wait until the Oreo update....to be fair though my favorite so far has been Jellybean!! Nougat is dull, I can't stand the Sense icons...thank goodness for the Theme app.

Guys, please don't put your hopes too high and take this rumor* with not only a grain but two hands full of salt.
HTC (like all big OEMs) officially supports its devices for 24 months after their market release. The M9 is getting three years old, soon. In other words, it's more than unlikely that HTC will provide any further updates for the M9. Especially since the EOL phase got reached almost a year ago and not just recently.
In addition, why should a carrier branded device get a major android update the unbranded European version or the dev edition doesn't get? Don't forget that these two versions normally got their updates around 3 months before the carrier branded ones. If the Optus variant really got android 8 at then end of February or the beginning of March then SKU 401 and 617 would already be running this newer version since somewhen between late December and mid-January.
Disclaimer: Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see the M9 getting another major update. However, chances are more than high that the whole thing is just a canard.
* Since this info is nothing more than that.
If a specific career device gets an update, would it be possible for all other variants to run it (ported version , may be?)?
Or, would it be possible to port it to other varriants?

It depends. Theoretically, it should be possible, but some carrier specific feature might not work for other carrier. That is, if the ROM is still compatible with the old firmware.

Apart from the carrier specific features, the rom still should work , right? That is software for literally the same hardware..

In general term yes.
Note that carrier specific would sometimes means ril+modem. So in such cases, the port could work but leaving phone and data capability out.
