Miui V5 for Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Guys, is there a possibility that MIUI V5 will support our new phone? I really want MIUI with TW Framework on my Note 3. Thanks.

Theres always a possibility seeing as they have done it for note 1 and 2,
I made the same post 10 minutes before this one :L

Unfortunately it may takes a while because the MIUI v5 is currently based on 4.2.2 but not 4.3, but GN3's stock roms are 4.3
That is why there is already MIUI roms for galaxy S4 (stock roms are 4.2)
So maybe we have to wait until MIUI develops a 4.3 version (MIUI v6?)

Sorry, I was referring for Note 3....It was just a typo. Yes, I owned note 1 and note 2 and I was using MIUI.

well im hoping they or we at XDA can manage to make it based on CM11. so much faster but yes you lose the S-pen features. only time will tell

No MIUI yet??
Really thought there would be a wiff of Miui by now atleast for the N9005 Snapdragon ? The note 3 is a great device but because off development I'm starting to regret not waiting for the S5 as I only got my note end of Des

I am really hoping for miui on note 3. It look so awesome :good:

Be happy with your note 3. The S5 was a disaster and a straight up dissapointment. Note 3 is a better phone of the 2. The only differences are that the S5 is waterproof and a minimal margin better cpu. you won't feel the difference.

Not disappointed with the phone I'm talking about development. You can bet your bottom dollar two months after the S5 release we will see MIUI and many other Roms on it as people are going to flock to it. What is very disappointing from the note 3 is it hasn't got half the development that the Note 2 have and the phone is already 6 months old

Hi all, anyone know of an update for this. I had MIUI on my GS4 and loved it. Now have the SM-N9005 and would love to have the same ROM on this device.
Cheers

Good things to those who wait hopefully. One of the reasons why I picked myself up a Note 3 was because the Note 2 was so hugely popular with a myriad of custom ROMs available. Thank Samsung for KNOX which has kind of put a dampener on the developement of ROMs and porting of them too IMO

my thoughts exactly...note 3 did not get that many custom roms heck even PA is not available for the note 3 and some developers are already moving on to newer devices....still it is a free service and i am happy for what i got with the snapdragon variant and a moment of silence for the exynos guys

PA just need a Legacy Maintainer is all, if you want you can compile it and release it. They'll allow it. They officially maintain Nexus devices only. Hence other brands being Legacy. (PA is a very small team, hence them asking on G+ for legacy maintainers)

I am sure I read that miui is in closed beta testing for our phone. Had to have so many miui credits before u could apply as tester though.

[Q] Absence of ROM Developers

Not trying to start fires or be disrespectful is it just me or have all the ROM Devs either left for another phone or are abnormally silent. Additionally does anyone have any info on a bootloader unlock or root for NC4? Like i said not trying to start a flame war just looking for any information. I appreciate everything that our current ROM Devs have been doing A+ job per the normal, just want me some cyanogenmod.

SS can be treated like TWRP but the Aroma Installer will not work on it.

Ok, I understand that, what is the requirements needed from Vision to run on Verizon's locked bootloader?

You are correct thank you for correcting me, maybe im just looking for a different style and am gettin impatient i really wish we had a unlocked bootloader and some cyanogenmod. I have tried Nova Launcher and it works really well but the settings, notifications the little touches that Samsung does with Touchwiz are not my thing i guess.

Have you tried using some Xposed modules to remove certain things and add others? Objective ROM is about as close to AOSP as you can get, pretty much everything that isn't needed to run the phone had been removed.

But the styling is still TouchWiz so all of the notification portion and the launcher and setting.apk.

Eclipse ROM is now updated to Kit Kat which gives a very AOSP look as well.

Or you can try and source a Developer Edition that comes unlocked and flash CM11

We can only use the stock kernel on the Retail devices since they have a locked bootloader.

Other's are just make-up to stock ROM. Lol i can do it with many tweaks. I want smooth & pure android experience on my phone. Was looked at for CM or other AOSP ROM's but found none. Used AOSP based ROM's on my every Android phone, low-range, mid-range (Galaxy 551,I9100,I9300) And that ROM was definetly better than stock rom. I want it again but seems like no-one intrested about it. :/

Nothing. yes it cr***y status. Sold my N III (N9000Q) over 2 months ago. Now waiting for G3 bootloader unlock. It seems pretty disappointing that still doesn't cracked.

Looking for a rom that still has S-Pen functionality but on stock Android?

Hey,
been a while since I been here(from back in the days of my Galaxy Nexus). I just picked up a Note 4. I like it. I somewhat dislike the TouchWiz and hate how out of box it's using 1.8-2GB of ram on start up(assuming because of TouchWiz).
Is there any roms out there that run practically stock Android(pref. 5.0 Lollipop?) but still have the S-Pen suite enabled, including the part when I pull my S-Pen out it notices it and gives me that "Air command" menu.
One last plus would be something that gives me the ability to still use fast charge 2.0.
I looked up a couple of roms but unless I missed something they don't offer these features.
Any help? I have the Canadian N910W8 model and use it on Band 4 AWS/UMTS(3G) and LTE on various freq's so the radio would(should, preferably stay in-tacked)
Thanks!

I don't think this belongs in this section man, maybe ask it in the Q and A. It will probably get moved.
On answering your question, at this stage there is no stock aosp rom that supports spen functions. It's a little bit of a dream for most users. Although I hear that lollipop will be faster than stock, that's what I've read.

That's wrong. There is S-Pen functionality in cm12 at this moment. All you have to do is download and install one or two apps from Play Store. This apps are even free.
It is CM S-Pen en Note Buddy. I have installed them myself and S-Pen does work.

Found this the other day https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steadfastinnovation.android.spenlauncher&hl=en
Im running cm12 with the following
s pen launcher
cm s pen add on
note buddy
papyrus
this gives me basic s pen functions but is more than adequate for my needs

You are not entirely right either. There are free versions of this apps, but for full functionality you have to pay, not that there is anything wrong with it, just stating the fact. Also you have some s-pen functionality, but not all of it, and in my opinion CM12 s-pen functionality is somewhat less fluent and intuitive then TW one. Regardless, I still prefer CM than TW
I would also like to know how is this thread relevant to Development section

Be careful throwing around the word 'wrong'. I did say as far as I know, just trying to help someone out. There is apps you can use with cm or some other aosp roms, but it's nothing like the spen features you get from within TW. Not that I'm a big fan of it myself, I have quite a few gripes myself, *cough* performance... But for the multi window and spen features, presently if you use them all, TW is it for now.

I have the same phone as you. So far LiquidSmooth and the Unofficial CM-12.0 are the only Lollipop builds that can even use the S-Pen (Unless you know of others). You won't get the TW features of course. I'm very slowly looking into building a AOSP Lollipop rom that is custom built for our N910W8 devices. I've never built my own before so it is a lot of learning.

It *should* be doing that. Unused RAM is wasted RAM. It's caching stuff for speed so that the next time it needs to load up something, it can check if it still is in RAM already. It's not a TouchWiz thing.

You can still install it on other versions of the Note 4. Just expect some things not to work. If your running the CAN version of the Note 4 I don't recommend using LS atm due to very poor battery life on this model.

Not a problem!

Has anyone tried converting all the original s-pen apps to user apps with titanium backup, and then doing an app and data backup of them from the stock ROM, installing CM12, and then try to install them?
I'd try it myself, but I'm asking on behalf of a mate, not for myself. I think there's a possibility that it might work. It's gotta be worth a try..
I've got CM12 on my S4, and it's awesome.

Now the omega touchwiz rom are released:
imo the best rom and all features would work like in stock.
try i..maybe what you seeking?

How do we do that? I haven't found a note 4 lollipop tw rom anywhere? Apart from an unstable unofficial cm rom.

Reflashing stock over custom ROMs

This is probably a dumb question..
But is it possible to flash the system.img from stock over a CM 13 rom and keep user data? Or a combination of the various IMG files?
I'm just having a lot of instability issues with the nightlies and don't want to have to download the 35gb of music again now that I'm on 2mbs internet :crying:

I had gone completely stock including relocking boot loader - agree - non stock ROMS are less stable.

Appears I may have found the answer in this excellent guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
I am wondering if anyone can confirm if Google Music would still have all it's downloaded music? Or would flashing write over that, as they are protected/hidden/encrypted files?

Best guess
Going back stock will make it factory fresh
I.e. Bye bye downloads

Maybe don't use the nightlies and just use a more stable ROM? Your problem seems to be with nightlies being too unstable, well, that's the name of the game with nightlies. Maybe go for one of the other ROMs in the forum that offer much more stability? Won't be stock-stable but it will be pretty stable...

You're probably right. I'm just a little surprised that the Redmi Note 3's unoffical version of CM 13 was 10x more stable than the unlocked Google Nexus phone. Not blaming anyone or thinking I am owed anything. I just assumed since it ran so well on the RN3 that it should be near perfect on the N6P.
Any ROMS you reccomend that? Any reason not to just go stock+root+xposed?

AFAIK last CM snapshot (release) for 6p was in April.
If you want a stable ROM for 6p, choose one that is based on AOSP and not to heavily modified.
I've been using Pure Nexus ROM for awhile now and I find it very stable, if you find a bug and report it correctly, the dev is sure to try his best to fix it.
He also releases an update every month at least to include the security patches.
Stock ROMs can have bugs too and sometimes fixed in custom ROMs, they're usually more optimized too

+1 for pure nexus rom and xposed
