Hi All - I did this for a long time with my dear old HD2 and benefited out of sight from the community. I then moved to Galaxy Note 2 which I liked so much that I bought the Galaxy Note 3 .... but the ROM is branded with some Estonian Telco and little apps I can't even understand. No big deal, but the obsessive in me would like to get rid of it without losing features I'm still liking.
Long story short ... is there an official unbranded ROM available? I'll probably look at custom ROMs later, but for now I just want to enjoy the phone.
Thanks in advance ... (BTW I did search)
Seasons Greetings to all

Hi,
In case it helps, I have an up-to-date Galaxy Note 2 ROM list kept here, which includes the GT-N7100, N7105 models.
Someone was asking for a list in the AT&T section, so I thought I'd post this info in each section to tell people.
It's kind of a hobby, but it's kept up-to-date pretty much every day.
Some of you might find it useful.
That's some serious consolidation done there m8! Great job, surely helps!
Thanks.
Just a quick bump in case it can help anyone out who doesn't know about it.
Super awesome. If you could just sort it base wise like touchwiz and aosp.
this is XXXDDDAAA
Hi,
It came to my attention that I'd forgotten to add a few roms from the `Original Android Development' sections for the different carriers.
Sorry about that. Those roms have now been added.
Just a quick bump. The Galaxy Note 2 ROMs list is still regularly updated.
I hope it continues to help people out. As usual most of the ROMs are here at XDA.
Thanks.
Note 2 ROMs
cool thanks
I'm still using my Note 2 (believe it or not). The Galaxy Note 2 ROMs list is still going strong, too - although it has gotten easier with less ROM development.
(This is kind of a thread bump. I'm looking to switch to a Galaxy S8 Edge in the near future, if they are any good.)

Sorry for the boring reply, but I would recommend whichever one you try and like.
MIUI is nice for a change sometimes. Here in Japan, we were limited as to which ROMs we could flash, so I eventually went back to the latest ROMs from the carrier (DoCoMo).
The Galaxy Note 2 is still a nice phone. I'm looking forward to changing devices in the coming months, after having stayed with the Note 2 since it came out.
I pay quite a bit each month here for my phone, so it makes sense to benefit from a newer device if I'm still paying quite a bit each month.
The Note 2 still does everything I need it to do. But after trying other devices in the stores, I realize that they are quicker, lighter, and it's important to freshen up life with new experiences. (I'm kind of old fashioned, so I have to remind myself to change every few years.)
(It can also be tricky getting a 24 month contract when you live abroad and rely on renewing your visa annually.)
.. Go with whichever ROM you like, and read the threads and see how much enthusiasm there is for each one.

Do you know the main ROM thread for that? (It doesn't have to be XDA.)
For example: This thread links to these files.
That ROM you posted the link to is dated as more recent, so it would be nice to know the thread it belongs to.
Thanks.
I dont think theres even a thread but therom works fine. I flashed it some days back @Grant Barker
Only the buttons backlight doesn't work. Other than that everything works fine.

Thank you.

Hello guys. I am new to this forum (reading a lot, but not writing)
Today I got my S4 i9500 and I am very happy with it. I got my Huawei 8800 pro for 3 years, so you are understand, that I am not a fan of changing my mobiles every year But I am really like to read about changes in mobile world and, of course, reading this forum So I got some questions, that little bit bothering me:
1) I am from Lithuania, Europe and I am thinking of updating to 4.3. Read, that region does not really meter, but would like to confirm this information for i9500.
2) Played some games, almost everything running smoothly, but, for example, in game "Dump ways", when there are level, when need to tap to kill bees, when I got 4 bees on screen, it is getting notable lags, so it is really strange for me, that in such game I am getting lags.
3) I am got 1 year international warranty, so I would not like to loose it, so for a year or maybe half, I am not planning to root my device. So I would like to ask, if rooting your device is boosting it, that "medium use" user can definitely notice changes?
Thank you in advance for answers and sorry, if questions are very "noob like" for you
P.S : Delete please this post, moved to another post.
Greetings... i just got my Note 5 last week finally, after almost 2 yrs when it was first introduce Only now its in my hand as my personal trusted [email protected] (Tq Note 7) if theres one word fr me to describe it,i wud choose "PERFECTION" bcos i just love everything about it,the detailing,the built,the screen EVERYTHING!

Hi guys, long time user of the forums but only really decided to join up now. I hope you're all well.
I've got the S8+ and S8 about 3 weeks ago. I work for an agency that deals with Samsung and in return we were given 5-10 models all locked with GNU, KNOX and etc to basically just play around with and demo for our clients. I took 2 of them home and well, you already know, my friend ODIN came along lol.
Anyway, if any of you guys have any questions about It, feel free to ask. I'm currently trying my best to root it and code something up but to no avail.
Peace.

Welcome to XDA-Developers youngdagger! :good:
This phone was leaked to Hell & back & got a lot of coverage after the official announcement/introduction,so,probably not too many questions that haven't been answered.
Not a lot of in-depth reviews ATM,how 'bout sharing w/us your Pro/Con list & if any,odd peculiatities/something new not mentioned elsewhere.
Personal preference,the S8 OR S8+?
THX & again,Welcome To XDA-Developers!
We are all wondering about battery life when using the S8+ and some decent usage at that. Any thoughts yet?

Odin? I dont suppose you have any news for us with regards to root or bl unlock capability?
Like others have mentioned, but also added a few of my own:
Battery life?
You prefer S8 or S8+?
Pros/Cons?
How's the camera? I know that it's also 12MP, like in the S7, but I do wonder about the improvements this time around?
I'm aware that the voice features for Bixby won't be working at launch, but how're the other features?
How accurate is the iris scanner?
Of the unlocking methods, which one is the fastest to unlock the device?
Hi. I am aware there is no such thing as The Best Rom for model X. I have installed ROMS before in other smartphones and I've always admired all the effort put on every rom version by their authors.
I'm just asking for personal opinions / experiencies regarding the latest ROMs released for the Galaxy Note 3 (N9005) to help me decide according to the goals below.
I know there is a lot of information in every ROM thread and I have read many of them, but the particular difference with the Notes against other smartphones is the S-pen functionallity. Many roms don't mention the S-pen so It's a little difficult to tell which ones really suport these features, which are important to me.
In my case, I would be very happy if:
- The ROM has pen support (the reason I have the Galaxy Note).
- I think the ideal ROM would be close to the Note line, say, a port of N7, N8 or so.
- Battery Life is good (and/or settings can be tweaked to have better batery. life than stock Lollipop 5.0, if possible.)
- I really like latest Android versions, the newer the better (Android 9), but I can live with an older one (6, 7, 8...) if it's really more stable, fast, or battery life is better.
I apologize to those that don't like this kind of posts. Just a short story: I owned a Note 3 Neo Duos (N7502) for some years, and I was really frustrated because there is just no development, no way to update it from kitkat. And I tried hard. I think I read every possible thread about the N3n duos here and outside. Many apps stopped working with Kitkat, and most notably MICROSOFT ONENOTE, one of the apps I use the most. Plus the battery was getting bad.
I ended up selling a bunch of used equipment last month and decided to give up and say farewell the N7502 for good so I sold it cheap.
To my surprise, two weeks later I was selling a (very) old notebook and out of nothing a buyer offered me a Galaxy Note 3 N9005 as a trade!
I gladly accepted and now I am very happy. The phone is in excellent condition, including the battery.
Now I see myself in the opposite situation. I had so little information and no ROM options for the N7502 and now I have so much and so many for the N9005 it's being very hard to decide. I've been reading the ROM threads for a week or so and I seem to have more doubts than answers.
So, I would like to count with the opinions or impressions of who has already tried some of the custom ROMS.
Thank you!
