So I am starting a project called Cyality ROM and would like to know if any DEV's want to collab on this for shared and equal credit? The word "cytality" stands for cyber vitality, and in and of itself is implying that this ROM will have a long life in our community. Which is what I'm striving for.
The thing that sucks for me is that I'm a noob and can't find or develop my own base to work from. There are other stripped down TW roms out there I can use, but there's a lot of custom stuff from other devs I don't want.
So I was wondering if a seasoned DEV could do me a big, big favor and provide me with a stripped TW MDL base ROM I can build up and work with. This person will obviously get credit, but I need it stripped. I don't want anyone else's custom apps or settings in it as I want to add my own. I'd like to retain the Samsung features at first, like AirView and all that, but everything else can be removed from it.
I've already searched the forums for something like this and the closest thing I could find was SlimBean, which is nice but it's not a TW rom and it's loaded with custom settings from the devs that I don't want.
Since I'm a graphics designer not a programmer, I want to make a rom that is visually stunning to look at while still maintaining performance. I'm going to incorporate Buzz in it by default and a minimalistic theme that will be gorgeous. I already got approval to use ROMDB for beta so the ROM will have auto updating features, community alerts, etc.
So yea.. if anyone could do this for me I'd greatly appreciate it, and this person will get full credit for their contribution. Thanks!
This is pretty awesome. I can find you a base. I would use the newest Brazilian firmware. Unless you are building for a US carrier. In which I would use the latest M919V fiware that came out today

I'm on the Sprint variant, so it's the MF9 update which is the latest. That's what I'll be developing for initially as I have no other means to test other than on my own device.

I just pushed an alpha version of my CytalityROM. Not publicly, however.
If I figure out how to convert it to your variant then I'll share the link. I just gotta do a few more things to it.

I have been using ozzeh's rom and have been following all the other rom development. Why aren't the roms showing up in rom manager? I have rom manager premium and all it shows is cyanogen.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I believe the developers of those ROMS have to submit them to be included.
My guess would be they haven't done so for one reason or another.
I think perhaps because they make developers pay to have their ROMs added to ROM Manager, it may deter people from doing it. I also believe if you personally do not have the pay version, you will not be able to receive updates for your ROM.
http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/03/rom-manager-and-third-party-roms.html
I don't think devs should have to buy the premium to get their roms listed. Its their hard work that makes rom manager worth having.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I agree. That's pretty messed up.
It's just someone trying to capitalize on someone else's hardwork.
Developers get a free copy of Rom manager premium. It costs them nothing and promotes their Roms. Popular tried and tested roms like cm mod are available to all users while themes and experimental roms are usually only available on premium.

It's been only available for a week.....
Looking over at the Dev forum it looks pretty good so far. We can't even get the phone in the US yet. I'll be jumping from Skyrocket to Note 2 as soon as it's available here, and I know a lot of Devs will as well. Just give it a few weeks after it's available in the US and Canada and you'll have a ton of ROM choices.
People like you make baby Jesus cry....
Its like a week since release and we got good stuff.
The development even quicker than that for Note 1 previously. Couldn't be happier
Speaking from experience, not many devs want to develop for non-Nexus devices, let alone phablets.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
There's going to be a decent amount of devs making ROMs for this device. All high end phones are going to have good development. But you do have to realize that not everyone wants a huge phone, so there won't be as many devs as the sgs3. But there will be enough development definitely.

I couldn't agree more. The whole point of custom ROM's is to add value to the product. I find it difficult at this point to see how a custom ROM could add value. The ROM is very fast and has features you cannot find elsewhere. There is minimal need for additional features or more speed. No need to return to Android basics or use CyanogenMod. Custom ROMs will add value when they can add newer versions of Android. If someone can port Android 4.1.2 without losing S Note, S Planner and multiview, then there would be value added.
to be honest, i miss these devs,their works for note2 :
Chainfire root+cwm recovery
siyah kernel
Rom devs we have really good, like mike, indie, wanam.

Android 4.3/CM10.2 ROMS are growing in number, and many former Android 4.2 and CM 10.1 ROMS have been evolved into the newer builds. Problem is that Graphic Glitches on Android 4.3 for Samsung Exynos phones are substantial, and they make the user experience quite unstable and at times very irritating.
We need developers to continue updating 4.2 ROMS with the latest features (e.g. Focal, HALO2, etc...) for a while until the Graphic glitches on 4.3 ROMS are dealt with sufficiently. Maybe a new PA or CM 10.1 ROM would be a good place to start. Current 4.2.2 ROMS still being developed lack many new features and recent updates.
Thanks for everyone who helps. If you agree with the idea, press THANKS below to show the number of those interested.

Try out SlimRom build 8. It's 4.2.2 and stable, fast and battery friendly and include all the customization options you need.
With that said I would also like to say that my modded stock and odexed 4.1.2 is working like a charm and nothing beats it.
Try developing yourself and you will know how difficult it is. Just begging and demanding don't work. Go fork some repos and port 4.3 changes back into 4.2
And the issue of graphic glitches is not anyone's but Samsung's fault because they haven't released updated GPU drivers. And non of the 4.3 Roms mentioned stable so such glitches are expected.
If you are not satisfied with whats avilablr then either make your own stuff or suffice with whats available.

Depends as all roms are created different. Seeing how there is only ONE rom creator thus far for this device and he specifically says ATT working ONLY, i would say the one and ONLY custom rom out now will ONLY work on ATT. Now IF a rom dev creates a rom that WILL WORK on t-mobile, i'm sure they will make that very clear.
Now if your are asking very generally, yes it's possible. Given this device is barely out for a week now and we already have Root, Custom Recovery, and a Custom Rom dev, be sure T-Mobile varient will sure get love soon my friend . Just read the custom rom's thread that you are interested in and don't bug the creator to make it workable with t-mobile, that will just annoy the hell out of them like it would anyone else. Everyone knows this device is on many carriers so IF devs want to jump on this device, you will see your t-mobile rom soon, just not today or now .
Now that this rom is released, does anyone have any idea how long something like this would take to port over?
I'm not sure if it's an easy thing or not. I know AOSP was pushed almost same day, albeit being buggy.
I'm pretty excited to get the update on my AT&T phone, however I don't remember how long it took for the 4.3 to be released for regular models.
For anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

Awesome! That's where I got my 4.3 GPE rom, thanks for the update dude!
I'm not an expert on this, so someone correct me if I'm wrong.
By what I understand, the Google Edition ROM runs with little modification on the AT&T S4. The main hurdles are with the kernel, which has to be modified slightly to run on the AT&T S4. Once a developer is able to modify the kernel to run, porting the rest of the ROM over shouldn't be a big deal. The developers are pretty brilliant and quick on this stuff, so I imagine you'll be seeing ports of the GPE ROM here pretty soon.

Basically. I mean, there isn't a significant difference in the hardware between a normal Samsung S4 and a Google Edition S4, except the LTE chips used for retrieving signal (depends on your carrier). So that being said, the kernel shouldn't be a big deal and the ROM shouldn't be either. I'm really hoping to use Kangakat as soon as it's released, I'm a BIG fan of Kangabean and have been using it along with Omega ROM with dual boot. Can't wait for this! Thanks for the good news! It's about time!
