The title says it all. I know there is an old JellyWiz build ported from Sprint, but it has issues. A port from the Vzw GNote2 would be much more sensible.
Has anyone heard any news or is there even a Dev. team working on one? Lol who knows when we will see the upgrade suite on vzw. There are so many goodies on the Note 2 that will run fine on our S3's. I'd even imagine an actual S-Pen would come in handy with a port, lol. I know there are plenty of features being ported over( I run Galaxy Mod RLS13).. But not all of them. For example, one of the Settings I liked on the Sprint port was the Display settings for Color(Dynamic,etc.)
Dunno about the rest but S Pen requires special hardware in the screen so that can never work.
The Note 4 introduces many innovations in software that could easily be ported to Note 3, such as improvements with S-Pen software, general UI changes, and overall a fresh, new software.
We have the Galaxy S5 ROM (with ported s-pen features from n3 rom) that runs perfectly fine, camera and browser and all. It would seem feasible that the Note 4 ROM can easily be ported to the Note 3, keeping intact many features once unique to the Note 4.
Do you think we'll see a note 4 ROM on note 3?
What features unique to the Note 4 would you like to see ported, specifically?
Mouse pen features, copy and select
On S5 Port ROM thread developer said, that he will port ASAP Note 4 ROM for Note 3.
But firtst must be Note 4 ROM available for download.
I don't think it will take too long before someone does it.

with out a doubt... it will be here... just need to wait the firmware to be release...
Btw, despite the Mouse SPen features, what else are you guys looking for, from the Note 4?
Anything that we see in the note 4 would be great such as the multi window features, smart select in the air command, it's snote and the wide selfie mode in camera.
yep fahadali2315 will deliver, great dev and a gentleman who tries hard to accommodate most. Just begun to feed him coffee to keep him up for extra work here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2771454&page=237
Looking forward to that... Where can I find the ported s5 ROM? I like new touchwiz better than old tw

also if want to flash a ROM in order to have S5's TW you can try Hyperdrive ROM. It does a pretty good job.
the recent apps menu imo looks way better on Note 4 and it's worth porting.
Nice, that does look great!
And thanks guys got the xposed s5 ui

That's the Recent apps off Android L, I believe it's a sign that they're getting ready for that MASSIVE update. :victory:
Because there will be a note 4 port is the main reason I'm sticking with my note 3 and not getting the note 4. I still consider the 3 to be a beast! And with note 4 software, I just can't justify the upgrade.

All I want is the ultra power saving mode to be ported and id be happy
To be fair even the note 2 is a powerful player - note 3 is not that much behind note 4... Add note 4 firmware and debloat a little as standard and you got a phone that has literally no difference except that you miss a little bit of camera quality... But then paying £600 to bump up 3mp isn't really justified... And the n3 camera rocks anyway

I second the ultra power saving mode wanted on note 3. Really, you could do something similar with taker I suppose (someone probably already has a profile for it), but the one for the GS5 looks pretty dang slick.
I will not go for N4 also cause the lack of water proof but i needed the OIS also. Im wa8ting N5

[Q] Seriously considering buying GS6 but I have questions regarding UI mods & roms
First off, a huge thank you to anyone who takes the time to answer these. This might be the first non-AOSP phone i've ever bought.
I know all of the answers will be somewhat speculation since the GS6 is still new but mostly I'm just looking for what's been done in the past with the Samsung Exynos processors. And if I do get one I most likely will be getting a T-Mobile branded one as there does not seem to be a Samsung unlocked version sold in the US, if I'm wrong please correct me there.
So essentially my question is, will these changes be most likely possible.
1) Removing AM/PM from 12 hour clock.
2) Disabling capacitive button light and remapping buttons back to left, multitask to right. or
3) Getting nexus-style soft keys and disabling capacitive buttons.
4) Installing the AOSP Google Dialer and contacts.
So second part is about ROMS.
Now to my understanding the Exynos essentially means no stable 100% working AOSP roms ever. That has been my understanding and part of my reason for staying away from Galaxy S phones. Recently I've seen many places where people are saying just put CM12 on it but then in my own research CM12 or anything similar either seems to not be available or has serious bugs. So is it possible, lets say more than 50% chance that the GS6 will get a 100% stable bug free AOSP rom.
As a follow up to that, if it is possible, based on earlier phones and AOSP roms, does the camera suffer or does it retain the same quality. Sony phones for example, the camera breaks badly if you unlock the bootloader and install AOSP. It requires a locked bootloader and Sony rom to function properly. Also anyway for the fingerprint reader to still work on AOSP?
Second question regarding modded touchwiz roms. Can things like my above questions, and more AOSP like mods be done in these custom roms? Such as full AOSP theming of Samsung apps, stock google apps, and would apps like T-Mobile WiFi calling still work in modded touchwiz roms.
Once again a huge thanks in advance to anyone who helps out with these questions.
1.) Yes, I have done that on my S5.
2.)Once again yes, I have done that on my S5.
3.) I'm sure there's an app for that lol
4.) Idk but I've been wondering the same thing!
Check out MOAR ROM for the Sprint S5, that's what I'm running right now, just to give you an idea of all the mods possible.
From what I've heard, AOSP build will be damn near impossible on the S6, and also from what I've read, the camera does take a major hit in quality. AOSP themeing can be done once Samsung releases the theme SDK that is built into the new TouchWiz in the S6!

That rom seems perfect for what I would want, hope the GS6 gets something on par. I love AOSP but luckily Samsung has actually done a pretty decent job with TouchWiz on lollipop and since I simply don't trust Google to make a Nexus phone with a good camera or battery anymore after the N6 I'm really considering the GS6 and I've really been enjoying playing around with it at best buy but obviously coming from 7 years of AOSP it's tough to leave.
Glad 1 and 2 are a yes. Probably my biggest annoyances. Though you mention the S5, that's on a snapdragon correct? I assume from your yes those should still be possible regardless of chipset.
I really hope 4 is possible. I've done a lot of searching but haven't found anything unfortountly. I could live with the Samsung dialer, but I would much prefer to have the Google one.
If the camera quality will degrade with AOSP than I just wouldn't even bother. Camera is probably my biggest reason for the S6 over a new Nexus.

Yeah man, that ROM made my S5 the amazing phone that I love haha, so much freakn customization within the ROM.
Yes the S5 is on Snapdragon, but MOAR is a TouchWiz based ROM, not AOSP.... and TouchWiz based ROMs won't be a proble, regardless of the chip that's used. And I also would love to see #4 too, but I'm guessing it would have to somehow be ported to work with the S6 & TouchWiz.
Some info on camera quality:
I've had every galaxy phone since the Note 2 / S3.
The camera is always MUCH worse on AOSP/CM roms. Worse than the difference on a Sony going from stock to AOSP.
However now with the new camera API and better 3rd party apps coming out I think it may not be an issue.
I tried the "Snap Camera" app on my Galaxy S6 today and it seemed just as good as the stock Samsung app but I'll have to do more testing.

Ouch. Well no need to really worry about AOSP now though it would be nice one day. Always the hope Google actually makes a good Nexus 5 again though :laugh: . I would hope that third party apps would retain quality though the new Camera app from Samsung is excellent from my experience demoing it.

Exynos is not as open (or open at all?) like Qualcom is. Therefore it is REALLY dang hard to get AOSP ROMs.
I was wondering because Galaxy S8 is now officialy released any developers working on bringing us the S8 port maybe?
I know it's been a few hours only since the official S8 event but im just curious
Anyone else would like to see this come to our S6?
I loved every single thing about S8 UI :fingers-crossed:
The new UI, new Animations, Lock Screen/Home Screen effects, i liked Navigation keys as well, New Weather Widget etc...
It's been officially announced, not released, AFAIK.

I doubt it'll happen - the lack of hardware keys for a start is a fundamental difference you'd have to overcome at kernel level.
I still believe that it can be made! And i hope it is... And about the buttons, RR has an option to enable or disable the on screen buttons so why not add that? And please make it for the G920T, if a dev interested in this is readin this
ROFL.

I know everyone has been all over the gcam port, but I've always been curious if anyone has figured out how to port other pixel-specific apps/features like the Ambient Services? Probably not, but figured I'd check. Some of those features are pretty cool, and it's one of the few things I miss about my pixel.
There are so many aosp roms for the s10 series now go check ond out you might find what you want. If you are looking for pixel festures chances are you dont care about the samsung apps/ui anyway
