No Pure Google? - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry for the silly question but I've been curious. Any particular reason that we haven't seen any AOSP/AOKP ROMs for our device yet? Is it lack of development or is there something a bit more technical that is preventing that from happening? I usually love to tinker and they offer quite a bit more options. Again, just curious....

.....Locked bootloader
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

cant run custom kernel on locked bootloader (retail version)

Yeah but didn't the Bionic also have a locked bootloader? We were still able to run AOKP through safe strap. Hopefully we can run AOKP the same way on the Note 3. Unless I'm wrong about the Bionic.

This is a complete guess but I'd say it wasn't a full aosp rom. Probably just a rom made to look and work like aokp on the regular kernel

I just want to make sure I understand this. There is currently a thread on T-Mobile Developer forum for CM10.2. While it's not working well now, once it's debugged it should work fine on our DEs, with the stock TM CM10.2 kernel?

correct. i believe you have to change just the apn or use global settings but it can be done no big deal at all. kernels run with no issues. im on tmobile kernel from imo with zero issues at all!

[Q] Is there any way to flash in international 9505 rom into the ATT model?

I just ordered on att's website. Just wondering if you can flash in international/regional rom for the 9505 into the 337.

Just wait, you will soon. Just like how all the US sgs3 had interchangeable roms with a few tweaks.
Wait for those tweaks.

so can i download an 9505 official rom and be able to flash it to my phone?
Ask s developer, don't think e can answer for sure. The bootloader isn't even unlocked yet.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Nobody knows for sure at this point.
It would be nice if it turned out like my I9100M, where I flashed it with the I9100 ROM and then my phone was an I9100 from then on. They too had the exact same hardware.

[Q] how do you decide which ROM to root with?

I am new to this rooting thing, and although there are not a lot of ROM options yet for the S4, how does one decide which ROM to move forward with?

Well if you have a non-AT&T version that can flash ROMs, the only good answer is flash a few and pick the one you like most.
And if I do have AT&T?

UPDATED! 10/15 [Announcement] Safestrap released by Hashcode

In case you missed it Hashcode released the alpha of Safestrap over here...
[RECOVERY LOCKED] Safestrap Recovery v3.6x
...I am just sharing the news. You need to check the original thread for details and instructions. Please read carefully as there are a few caveats at this time. Like...
CURRENTLY THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WHERE IF YOU HAVE ENCRYPTION ENABLED AND INSTALL SS IT BOOTLOOPS. IF YOU FIT THIS DESCRIPTION PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM SAFESTRAP FOR NOW.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
KNOWN ISSUES (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY):
For locked users: there is a process that happens when you click "Reboot Recovery" from the APK or use the "Recovery" button during the splash screen. Safestrap checks the device for write_protect and if it's enabled will automatically reboot the device to recovery (write_protect disabled) mode. You will see this as a screen with ORANGE text reading: "PLEASE WAIT THE DEVICE IS REBOOTING TO RECOVERY". Followed by the bootloader screen again. You may also see the splashscreen for Safestrap. If you see the splashscreen hit "Recovery" again. It's supposed to automatically take you to into recovery, but it doesn't work correctly yet.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And there are other things you need to read as well. So head over there and check out the OP and enjoy.
10/15 UPDATE BELOW
Hashcode said:
NEW Safestrap in the OP Link: v3.63
ATTENTION: IF UPGRADING FROM v3.62 or EARLIER USE "REMOVE RECOVERY" IN THE APK BEFORE INSTALLING THE NEW VERSION. I CHANGED THE HIJACK IN v3.63 -- DIFFERENT FILES ARE BEING CHANGED NOW.
CHANGES:
[3.63] I re-wrote the hijack to work at a MUCH better point during the boot. This cleans up most of the "jankyness" we were previously seeing with BT/Wifi and adb serial # on the stock rom. ** Note when upgrading to v3.63: Make sure to use the "Remove Recovery" in the previous version BEFORE installing the new APK. **
[3.63] The 2nd-init hijack was updated to work w/ Android 4.3 (for when that's pushed)
[3.62] Better handling for the virtual partitions
[3.62] Some bugfixes for /mnt handling
[3.62] Customizable sizes for partitions (you can use the defaults if unsure). Use the "+" or "-" buttons on the rom-slot creation screen to add / remove 100mb per click.
Enjoy

I just saw the tweet and thought I would share it. You'll have to double check the original thread. But it looks like (to me and I could be completely wrong) that as long as you haven't enabled encryption then you should be good.

[REQUEST] Eclipse ROM Port

Got my Galaxy Gear Watch today and couldn't get it working on my AOSP ROM so I moved over to a TW ROM. However, I hate the TW look. It's too big and clunky so I went looking for some TW ROMs and found this one:
http://www.elementalxdesigns.com/ec...-0-(08-27-13)-Touchwiz-stability-AOSP-Styling!!
I would love to see this ROM ported to the Sprint S4!
What do you guys think?
Of course it would just be a lot easier to just get Galaxy Gear working with AOSP, but TW generally is more stable with better battery life.

As long as it's TW ROM. I've never tried AOSP.
BTW the way to install is to wipe data and caches the install ROM. Then wipe data once again then absprint kernel.

Clean installed, wiped data, then flashed the Sprint kernel, and got stuck in a boot loop. Tried a couple kernels too. Might try again some time today.

Did you ever get this working??? I've been trying to figure this out also:fingers-crossed:
I'll take a look at this. No promises but it sounds too good to pass up myself. If I make progress I'll post it here.
Not much to say at this point. Its bootable with a little updater.script editing and flashing the ktkernel with aroma and instantly rebooting recovery and flashing an older 4.3 ktkernel. No data as of yet. I guess if I can get a stable data through either network or WiFi I'll make a download for ya. Or just some good links and a tut.

Nope. You can't install any aosp based Roms compiled from source. You can only use TW Roms, and one google edition ROM that's in the general section
