I think sami doesnt support anymore us. But u can install stock 4.2.2. Or cyanogenmod...as custom rom

I think that it will be more difficult even to have a fully functional cyanogenmod because of the changes in the surfaceflinger...TI is out of the market so we won't get further official support i guess...See Galaxy nexus also...
Impossible to have an Official 4.4 update, but I don't doubt that we'll have an stable and fully functioning 4.4 via CyanogenMOD.
but our device is fully capable of running 4.4.x .. this is unfair thats y i dont go for any sammy devices

Our device can run PURE 4.4 smoothly, but Samsung adds crap (aka Touchwiz) to Android...
proof? Official 4.2.2 is a HORRIBLE firmware!
Samsung announced that 4.2 would be the Tab 2's last update. At this point, if you want newer OS versions, ROMs are your only choice. 4.3.1 is pretty standard for roms nowadays. PAC-Rom developers said that they are already working on a 4.4 build for the tab 2, but it will be a while before it's out.

Note 8010 4.4 Touchwiz

Hello,
long time no see. I bought the note 10.1 a year ago and still waiting for an update. Is there a 4.4 Touchwiz port for the 8010. I am about to install a custom rom. Any recommendations which TOUCHWIZ based custom rom is good. because i am a heavy S-Note user. Or is there a S-Note(2014 verison) port for the 8010.

Nope. None as of yet but we have kitkat omnirom that works very well. No s-note tho.
Next time use the Q&A forum.?
Ask in Q&A forum, this is Dev forum.
BTW, ARHD is a great TouchWiz ROM
It's true that there is not an official kitkat rom or any sort of port of a touchwiz ROM, but we do have official confirmation that the original Note 10.1 will be getting the kitkat update. There has been a partially functional leak already. We can probably expect an official update (and custom roms based on it) in the next month or two.
So while installing a custom ROM might be a great idea, if you like touchwiz you ought to hold out for a bit longer.
i guarantee we all will receive the update at the end of 2015

But we already have 4.4.2 tho it's a test build it is functioning very well and it's very smooth
So as you say in the end of 2015 we might get android 5.0 hahahaha

What is the "regular" version of KitKat?
There is no regular version of kit kat as all versions of kit kat are custom ROMs. This phone is still on 4.3 officially.

OK where did you get liquidsmooth? If you got it from this website then its the same place to get other custom ROMs. There are at least 12+ custom ROMs for this phone.

No idea. MIUI is not developed here. The only thing here are some ports as XDA doesnt support MIUI

What's The Latest KitKat (4.4) ROM Available?

I'm looking for a KitKat ROM to downgrade from Lollipop. Preferably, I would like something as close to AOSP/CAF as possible.
Anyone know of anything?
Thanks.

They're all in the dev section. Just look at the remaining KitKat ROMs and see which are still being updated.
Hi, bought a used Oneplus One today with CM12.1 nighty today. Changed the governor to conservative and have to say: This is the smoothest Android experience I've ever had (much better than a S6). 60fps almost everywhere.
Couldn't complain
About caf: Isn't this the special cm kernel tree which is somewhat incompatible to aosp?
