Dear GT-N7000 brothers and sisters
Even though there are plenty of S-Memo alternatives many of us aren't fully satisfied. Personally I think the openDESIGN Project will not bring us all the neat features of the S-Memo (Premium suite) into CM9 like Formula recognition.
As one gets slaugthered alive, when you ask in a non TW based ROM thread about S-Memo integration, I've searched for a solution on my own.
Unfortunately I'm not that experienced in Android development, so maybe someone could correct me if I am wrong. I think there are two possible ways how to provide S-Memo to a non TouchWiz based ROM:
port the apk (modify) to include the TW framework and dependencies inside the APK itself
port TW framework and dependencies to the ROM and use an un-modified S-Memo APK
IMHO the first way should be possible when adapting the techniques of the tutorial Porting TouchWiz based Apps to CM7.
The second one would be something like integrating the twframework-res.apk and dependencies.
Please correct me if I'm completely wrong and this is all just garbage coming out of my mind.

if it would be that easy, everybody would do it
what do you mean by "good with computers"? do you know how to write code (C/C++)? are you yet experienced with running linux? have you ever compiled a kernel before? do you want to make a source-(AOSP)-rom (then you can get the source here: http://source.android.com/ and here: http://opensource.samsung.com/) or do you want to just theme and customize a stock firmware?
i think there are already some tutorials around which will help you in the beginning. just google for them!
i haven't done custom rom development myself but i would really like to get some (clean) aosp goodness on this phone. i am experienced with linux (use it since 6 years as primary os) and i can code c/c++/asm. so if you are in fact serious and able to go all the way. i would appreciate to help!

I'm pretty able to develop with Eclipse, so android sdk. Linux quite good, i prefer to use windows, but i know linux is necessary. First of all i'd like to know how to customize GALAXY fw and then i'll study how to compile a kernel, no one during my life helps me, and it's difficult for me because i'm not good with english and all tutorials are in english!
I'll try to work on it! Thank you
Can someone explain me how to cook a Galaxy S Froyo ROM with AOSP as the base and samsung drivers?
Could someone please explain to me how to flash the Korean firmware onto the European phone? Really need the native "record call" feature
I saw some instructions posted here
http://forum.androidcentral.com/hacking/40130-100-stock-captivate-rom-aosp-source.html
It's not difficult if you're comfortable with linux, shell scripts, custom kernels, and cross compiling.
Basically that's pretty much all it needs, Android systems are very similiar to a running linux system.
Boot off a bootloader (usually closed sourced) into kernel and initrd, then init loads the drivers, system and configs, after which is pretty much to your taste and likings.
Source code of android, samsung kernel source, are available online, google is your friend.
Hey there guys
I'm a dev from the i777 forum -- the AT&T Version of the i9100. My rom, ShishirROM, is based off of XWLPG Odexed -- one of the few i777 ROMs to be odexed. It revolves around having great battery life and stability, as well as being nicely polished and revolving around JKay's brilliant mod.
The page can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1505433
Okay, so I need YOUR help to port this ROM over the i9100. It should be very straight-forward, but I'll need a few beta-testers to make sure everything works as advertised. And being a i777 user, I need to know a couple of things to make sure the ROM is perfect out-of-the-box:
What are the most stable/fastest i9100 modems and kernels?
That's it for now, and I'll need some willing beta testers to PM me with:
Experience modding/testing
Ability to use adb / analyze logcats
Has plenty of backups of existing ROMs incase something goes wrong
Has plenty of time to beta-test
I can only take around 3 or 4 of the most qualified since I don't intend to have to give instructions with each package (e.g., adb push file to directory then chmod, etc.). I think this is the first time someone has tried to port an i777 ROM to the i9100, but I know it's possible and I could make the necessary changes and upload it right now, but I'll need to make sure it works first.
Thanks
I am super happy with ArchiDroid on my S3:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-archidroid-v2-3-3-power-hands-t2354859
It's a really very performant ROM, has ton of options and a truly dedicated developer to work on the ROM. I am particularly fond of his choice of OmniROM as the foundation of the ROM for its Open Source policy.
Archi is willing to help out in porting and building the ROM for an S$, but unfortunately this is way beyond my capabilities. Can someone please try to see whether this is an option for him?
This would probably be one of the best ROMs available for the S4, I am sure.
I do not like MIUI for a number of reasons.
Their forum leaves a lot to be desired.
It is not GPL complaint.
I flashed HMNOTE1W_AOSP_DEV_0627.zip and it is working reasonably well.
Had to restore both IMEI numbers using MtkDroidTools v2.5.3
Have restored all files from my Nexus 5 with Titanium Backup.
Main problem is can't do anything about the kernel.
This is why development is limited as zelendel explain to me.
Too bad, as it is a nice phone for the money.
I didn't buy it. It was a gift from a friend in Malaysia, who knows
I like playing with phones.
Nexus 5 is my daily phone.
I just see the Redmi Note as a challenge.
nice bro.. can u share ur rom?

I downloaded it from the MIUI site.
See Here
HMNOTE1W_AOSP_DEV_0627.zip
You will lose your IMEI's.
Took me a while to get everything working.
Make sure you know how to unbrick your phone, just in case.
Trying new ASOP rom.
VANILA_XAN
SEE HERE
This is the same site listed in the All in One Thread.
The forum is in Spanish.
There are quite a few roms listed in addition to the ones posted.
I am only interested in ASOP roms.
You have to join to download roms.
Install straight forward using CWM.
As usual had to restore my IMEI numbers.
Been running for only about two hours, but seems fine.
Make sure you backup Titanium Folder to your PC if you plan to use it.
Here is another ASOP rom from the Spanish forum.
Direct Link
AOSP Z3
Very slow download for me for some reason.
Features:
Tweaked for better performance and stability
Removed built-in apps that are not often used
Pre-rooted
Zip-aligned
init.d Support
Any internal modification
Xposed Works Framework
Powered by Gravity Box
Lenovo Calendar
Lewa Calculator
Lenovo Music
File Manager Lenovo
Dual Sim Ringer
Xtended Rings
Haven't tried it, yet.
Thanks for sharing

No problem. Trying to find useful information to post here.
The MIUI forum does not seem to be that good from a development
standpoint. I am certainly not a developer, so the best I can do
is post useful information.
Unfortunately, other than the MIUI forum, most forums are not in English.
I am able to get information from the Spanish Forum, as I know a little Spanish.
Google translate takes over when I don't understand something.
AOSP Z3 by Xancin
Installed AOSP Z3 by Xancin.
Xancin has Written many ROM's at the Spanish forum

Had to restore IMEI numbers, which is necessary on every install I have done.
Very easy using MtkDroidTools v2.5.3.
Other than that, install was straight forward.
ROM running smooth for past couple of days.
Went back and reflashed VANILA_XAN ROM.
All ROM's are a matter of personal preference and
VANILA_XAN seems to suit me the best.
The other ASOP ROM's worked fine and will suit others.
Now trying the Dual Sim's. I have T-Mobile(USA) as default
and vodafone(NZ) as the second sim.
Since I will be spending Christmas in New Zealand thought
it a good idea to test it.
nice thread!. i am really hoping there would be a stable kk rom
Okay please feel free to delete if this is in the wrong place,
I cannot find for the life of me where or how what ROMS are AOSP and which aren't. I spend ages reading each ones. I basically would like a 5.1.1 ROM that can have the Samsung Applications running on them, but all the ones I seem to find are all 5.0.1. and the newer ones that have 5.1.1 in the title seem to appear to me as AOSP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Steve
p.s I think AOSP is the term I have been given why samsung apps don't work .. so am sorry if i have used the wrong terminology as well..
In overly-broad strokes, any ROM compiled and modified by someone other than the manufacturer of a phone or tablet is treated as an AOSP ROM. Cyanogenmod is arguably the biggest of the bunch, and many smaller teams use their source code to create ROMs. Any ROM using a manufacturer ROM as a base cannot be an AOSP ROM as manufacturers include proprietary components in their ROMs.
There is no Android 5.1.1 ROM built by someone other than the manufacturer that can run Samsung apps. Samsung has modified portions of Android to allow those apps to function, and the changes are not open source. Therefore, ROM developers building ROMs using Android source code cannot include the Samsung modifications. Your only chance of getting a Samsung app-capable version of Android 5.1.1 is to hope Samsung releases a 5.1.1 update for the S4, or else someone with both a S4 and a flagship Samsung phone from either this year or last year ports a ROM over to the S4.
