[Q] Galaxy note 1 to Galaxy note 2 - General Questions and Answers

Is it possible to flash my galaxy note 1 with a galaxy note 2 rom?
If it is, I am using At&t as a carrier would I need the AT&T rom for galaxy note 2 to flash with?
I have always felt that these smart phone upgrades are just a simple rom uprade. For example Galaxy note 1 is the exact same thing as a galaxy note 2 with a upgraded rom.

No, you can't. It will possibly brick your device. Check out roms for Note 1 i'm sure there will be good ones.

Simply flashing the Note II ROM to Note I is not possible for sure, and it won't work or boot as there are changes in hardware and kernel. You'll need to port (Porting means changing the desired files in the Original ROM for making the Target ROM) the ROM to Note I for it to work. Search for 'Porting Guides' for understanding the procedures and I guess you could do it, but not sure though.

Okay, I thought it might work. It was just a theory and scratch I had to itch. Good thing I asked the pros first.
Thank you for the quick replies.
I am currently using Jelly Bam and thought I would try something different.
Cheers

Hey all, Im new here and have my first Android Phone

As of right now i dont think paranoid has a release for the bell galaxy note 2 but im sure they will in time but if i were you i would try out AOKP first...i've found their roms rather amusing but as a pro racecar drive im biased towards performance...im not really a pro racer :good:

One day it might get a rim which looks like the S4 rom but most of the functionality will be missing.

[Q] Doomsday scenerio

I've been flashing my Samsung phones for several years so I don't have a problem with the process. But I've recently acquired the AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2/SGH-I497 (data and wifi) and am disappointed to see that the tab is not supported by CM or any other custom roms.
If I flashed a rom created for a non-AT&T version of my tablet, what's going to go wrong? Would I simply need to change the APN back to the pre-flash settings... will it catch fire and explode in my hands.... or something in between?

You can't flash a ROM made for regular tab 2 coz At&t version got different processor (snapdragon) and hardwares so it's pretty much impossible that you can't get these ROMs working on your tab

Sprint Galaxy Note 5 - stock rooted

Hello,
I recently upgraded to the Sprint Galaxy Note 5 from a Sprint Galaxy S3 stock rooted.
Note 5 should arrive by mail this Friday. I would like for the Note 5 to be stock rooted.
Can anyone advise the best way to do this? I was able to be stock rooted on my S3 via Odin and the S3 has been awesome.
An opportunity presented itself in which I was able to upgrade to the Note 5.
I don't plan to flash custom roms in the short term, but perhaps in the far future I might.
I read about tripping the Knox counter and how it affects Samsung Pay, but I had never used Samsung Pay before.
If I have to give up Samsung Pay to be stock rooted on the Note 5, then that it fine.
Once the Note is stock rooted, I'll like to do the following:
1. disable/freeze some bloat apps via Titanium Backup
2. underclock the processor while my screen is off for maximum battery life.
3. install Xposed and some of my favorite modules
Thank you in advance for anyone's help.
P.S. Sorry in advance if my new thread is in the wrong forum. It has been a while since I have posted in any XDA forums.
