Is that pretty much the only thing holding things up, and no other technical barrier? I just wonder if I can safely snag a 950F if I see a deal, or if I should wait to be safe.

What am I going to lose if I install a custom rom?

Hello, since Samsung is not releasing Android M for this device I was thinking of using a custom rom. Obviously I am not going to have TouchWiz but I was wondering if everything else (e.g. the S-Pen) is going to work fine.
Also, I see that for now there is no official CyanogenMod 13 for this device. Does anyone know if it is going to be released?

There is not an official CM13 yet, but there are a couple of unofficial builds, I'm running Temasek's. The thing is running so far very good, actually, and it has a couple of baked in bonus stuffs not found on a typical CM build.

Porting M will be a b*tch.
First off, there are beta builds for Samsung's top dogs only so far, and only the most impatient devs would go porting an unfinished firmware only to have to do it all over again once the official stable build drops.
The porting itself won't be easy. Quite different bootloaders, devs had troubles porting the S6/Note 5 because our stock firmware for now is 5.0, and those of the S6/Note 5 were 5.1.1. Libraries, APIs, frameworks, etc. might be troubling once porting starts because yet again - our stock firmware is based on Android 5.0, the new on 6.0.
So, be patient, young one. The future is coming.
What about the feature that will be missing from CM?
Is the S Pen going to be usable as an input device for drawing and such?

AOSP based stock 6.0.1 ROM

I just bought this phone and I'm really happy with it. But in my opinion, what this phone really needs is a very stock, AOSP based 6.0.1 ROM. Look at ZyxxOS for the Xperia Z3 if you want to know what exactly I'm talking about. If anybody has the time do do this, it would be very much appreciated!

It isn't simple to just port stock aosp to a device like the opt. Go check out Exodus it is a aosp based ROM and is fantastic.

Oos is very close to aosp, bad performance but flash boeffla it makes the difference

Better with GraceUX, but if it is easier on stock firmware to do, then can it be for starters. But GraceUX is much better.

Grace UX is heavier though which increased lag on my device. Overral youchwiz is pretty heavy 500mb ram usage on CM13 :silly:

Run nova launcher, Google now launcher, or pixel launcher and that problem goes away. Pixel launcher is actually the stock launcher so you will have that true native android experience.
Removing/disabling the Samsung stuff will improve this too

What is the best custom rom for Honor Note 8?

Hello everyone!
I am getting tired of the stock rom in our note 8 and looking for a custom rom. What is the most stable with some mods?
Thanks in advance
There are quite a few around that you can consider
I picked a handset up cheap last week and it came loaded with the Google Integration ROM, based on Android 7 & EMUI 5.0
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/honor-note-8-google-integration-rom-t3566927
Does the job for me and the latest version seems stable and everything is working

I take it that the Resurection Remix you are using is designed for the Honor 8:
