Just bought a note 2

Hello Guys
I'm new in the forum and I just bought a galaxy note 2 n7100,I got it in china and has some kind of custom rom chinese I guess.
I also own a nexus 3 but I never changed the rom and is currently running android 4,2.
On my note I want to get an original rom or something that works well,what do you suggest me and what should I do?
Thanks
You need to carefully read how to root and flash a new rom, if that's what you want. My site has an up-to-date list of Samsung Galaxy Note 2 ROMs. You can also see a few community links to information here at XDA, to help you learn how to root your device.
Read the threads carefully. You should follow the information for your Note II, not a different Note II.
Do you live in China? What do you mean some kind of custom rom Chinese? Did someone sell it with a custom rom on it?
Welcome to the forums. I just got my Note II 6 days ago.
Loving it. (Although I was surprised to learn it doesn't have an FM Radio?)

1. Who would use that site to check for available roms instead of going to the android section?
2. The N7100 does have radio, the N7105 doesn't

It's already rooted, don't worry.
Go to Settings > About device, and tell us what your baseband version is. Once knowing that, someone can point you in the direction of a nice ROM, which is as easy as making a few clicks.

Why not just flash stock sammy rom just like your Nexus3? The stock is good as it is for me. I would suggest go stock, then slap a 64gb microsd for hd movies for your trips to China ΓΌ
Updated roms should be round the corner anyway given the leaks mentioned everywhere.
Cheers!

Right it is,I just checked on terminal.
so it says android 4.1.1 based version N7100XXALIE
should I provide something else?
Also would be possible to make a back up of my samsung galaxy nexus 3 and move everything on my note 2?
thanks

Well hell, just go over to the Development section and download a nice ROM suited for your baseband. The N7100 has plenty of support.
No worries. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1794
You can backup your stuff from your Galaxy Nexus to your computer and move them over to your new phone. Unfortunately it doesn't have an SD card so you can't just move the card over and copy it.

Any of those firmwares will work on your device, just install the most recent.
They will not break anything as they are intended for your phone.
flash with Odin, in the PDA section. DO NOT tick anything or change anything else.

[Q] S4 i9500 Google Play edition ROM

Good day guys, I really hope someone can help me!
I want to know if this S4 Google Play edition ROM that I got from this site will work on the S4 i9500.
What can happen if it doesn't work? Can I brick the device completely?

you say yes, but yes for what? Yes it will work or yes I will brick my phone?
Don't do it. Won't work.
Don't flash it, because it's from a diferent version of S4 ...
Thank you for the replies!
Can someone please give me a link of a standard JellyBean ROM that I can use on my i9500. I just want the Samsung stuff off! JB 4.3 would be great... else 4.2.2 is good?
Ok I am clueless here... Can someone please explain to me what I can and can not do with my S4 i9500? This might sound stupid, but I think I have the wrong idea about how this works.
I rooted the device and I have CWM installed.
I want something that looks like "stock" Android - Google Play edition etc and not the Samsung looking stuff. How do I do this? Or what am I missing?
Please explain if you don't mind!

That is meant for the i9505 and you have an i9500. Just like how 2013 Honda Accord window panels won't work in a 2001 Honda Accord

How Can I Get Google Edition Rom On My S4 i9500? Plz Help Me ?
All i know the official S4 Google Play Edition's ROM is for S4 i9505, it means different chipset (it uses qualcomm) than S4 i9500 (exynos).
I had i9500 too and i wish i can change it to google play edition...
