[Q] Possible to get nexus 5 People (Contacts.apk) on Note 3? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, hoping I'm posting in the right place. I can't seem to find anyway to get the people app from nexus 5 to my note 3 SM-N900W8. The other contacts app that came with the note is awful.
I'm also wondering if I can replace the phone and diaper with the nexus 5 dialer as well...

[Q] TMOUS HD2 Users Who Have Moved to TMOUS Samsung Galaxy Note 2..???

Hello all. After three years on my trusty HD2 (stock ROM, using Cookie's Home Tab), I am considering taking the Android plunge and purchasing a new Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Don't know anything about Android, so I have a few basic questions before making this move:
1. How did you move your telephone contacts and text messages from the HD2 to the Note 2?
2. How do you like the screen size of the Note 2 compared to the HD2?
3. Any issues with Wi-Fi calling on the Note 2? Didn't have this capability on my HD2.
4. How durable has your Note 2 been so far? Easier/harder to scratch its screen, capable of surviving a minor mishap, etc.?
5. Any other particular pluses or minuses involved with going to the Note 2 (easier/harder to navigate TouchWiz versus Sense, better/worse keyboard(s), etc.) that you'd like to share?
Not planning to sell my beloved HD2, but will likely keep it as a backup device. Thanks in advance for your replies!
Interesting. I just got the note 2 TMOUS. I love it. You can send me a message to my inbox. I'll be happy to respond to your questions.

Just post your comparison thoughts. I would also be interested in hearing from someone who migrated directly from a HD2 to a Note 2.

HD2 was an awesome phone with a veryyyyy bad OS. Since you been using it with Stock ROM, Android will be a delight.
I would suggest you to install Android on your HD2 even if you using it as Backup Device. Forums will Help you With That
1. Android auto-syncs its contacts from Google Contacts. So try uploading/syncing your contacts with google. Do you have your contacts saved locally on HD2? If Yes, extract them as vcf and upload.
2. Cant answer this (I don't own Note 2)
3. Cant answer this either
4. Note 2 has Gorilla Glass 2, so i would be really surprised if its scratched easily.
5. Sense is Definitely charming. But with the Improvement in Touchwiz for S3 and Note2. it would surely be an eyecandy. (Cant help you here also)
But seriously.. Running HD2 on Stock Rom is like Running i3 machine on windows95.. Android on HD2 is highly developed and daily usable.

[Q] Before I throw my Note 3 away....

Hey all,
New here.
I got my AT&T Note 3 and I am regretting it, not to mention I also have the gear 2, which is even worse!
And then I heard Samsung is pushing Tizen on their new flagship so I guess I am done with them....
But Nexus 6 is quite some time away so I got to make the Note 3 work till then
So here I am ...
How can I find a ROM that does properly the things I want it to do? So many out there...
I want to get rid of ALL Samsung apps, ALL AT&T apps.
I want to be able to use the Pen.
I want Moto X functionality, talk to it even with screen off, or at least for Open Mic+ to work and not get mixed up with S-Voice...
How do I find this Rom???
thanks
~S
PS. Is there any chance of Androidifing my Gear 2 or just ebay it and get a Glass?
may be an asnswer but required root

Note 5's Long Screenshot on Note 3?

Is there any way to take a long screenshot similar to how it's done on Note 5? I've seen it on Note 5, and it's very handy. Would love the same feature on Note 3.
There is that feature, I know I've used it before... Just search for it, sorry I can't help you find it because I don't renember...

My Note 3 is of SM-900 variant. Don't think Phronesis ROM is compatible with the Exynos SoC. Do you happen to know any SM-900 ROM which has the same feature built in?
You should download comptible ported rom for 900
Long screenshot
There's a awesome long screenshot app named longscreenshot on google play. It's convenient and easy to use.

DItto Note 5 for Note 4 (Can someone port this?!)

Bought a note 4 a few months back with the intention of putting Ditto Note on it when I feel like rooting and rom'ing.
But they only support the SM N910C. Wasn't like that for the Note 2. They supported everything then. Probably should have looked into it prior... but yeah.
Anyway I have a SM N910W8 (Canadian), and I'm dying for a port of that ROM that get's some long term dev support and love. Has anyone ported this ROM over or thought about it?

Note 7 rom/port/themed rom for the note 4?

Hi, is there a note 7 rom for the note 4 up, or a themed one or maybe a port?
if not, is there anyone who has come out and said they're doing so?
