I would like to make a Note 5 port ROM for N910C Note 4 based on latest Note 5 6.0.1 firmware. The idea came because it seems there is no such port for our device (at least I wasn't able to find one) and most of the custom ROMs seem to be Note 7 ports with minor variations. After comparing the ports that are based on N7 firmware with the ones based on stock Note 4, I came to a conclusion that stock firmware is faster than N7 ports, but with less features. I think having a Note 5 port ROM would be nice. I have some experience in porting and compiling ROMs, but I have never ported ROMs that are based on different chipset. If someone here could point me to a guide on how to port Note 5 firmware to N910C, I would appreciate it.

If you successfully complete this port will you release it to the public for us n910c users?

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to do it, because I lacked knowledge. However, this guy has made it, you can try it out:

Hello im trying to find a stock android rom to flash on my note 4 exynos(910C) variant, however i dont seem to find any, the only roms i come along to, are touchwiz based roms.
Are the popular stock android roms like caynogenmod, liquidsmooth available for the exynos note 4?

As far as I've searched, I found no CWM ROMs for your device.
This is all there: http://www.gadgetstroop.com/2015/02/Custom-Roms-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-Exynos-SM-N910C-SM-910H.html
Maybe you'll have to wait till someone ports one.
can note edge user install note 4 rom ... did anyone tested that -- i think if we install the note 4 rom and install proper EDGE kernal after the note 4 rom it will work without problems ???!!:cyclops:
Yes, we can flash International Note 4 roms like 910 F-G-( T, with datafix) to our Note Edge (If you have one of ''F-FY-G-T'' model too). Only you need to flash the right kernel for your model after rom such as RamKernel, Emotion Kernel etc.. And the most important thing, always make a clean flash.. Then u won't get any problems.
This is Very Helpful thx - is that applies to TW And CM Roms or TW only
Yes But Not All Roms my phone is N915F i tested RaceRom V. 9 and Ramkernal Working perfectly with same bugs As Note 4 N910F... And tested arora rom works but without signal... If any one wants to try plz give us feedback and say what roms working on our device thnx.. don't forget to take full backup don't lose ur efs partition
Hello everyone !
As everyone knows that we have android 6.0.1 and 7.0.x available for Jflte devices i was wondering if maybe a jflte developer could build a rom that is TouchWiz
based on CM/LOS and have android 6.0.1/7.1.x like the rom we got earlier [MIUI 8 based on CM with android 6.0.1] by @mikussj3 .....
i don't know if it's possible to build it or port it that's why i started this thread
I hope i'm in the right section of the forum..
Thanks in advance
TouchWiz can't be based on Lineage.
And porting the TouchWiz stuff to Lineage requires a lot of work. Something that developers don't really want to do or don't have time to do it.
I may be wrong, but I haven't seen a single Lineage/CM ROM that has the TouchWiz framework.
And android 6, 7 TouchWiz ROMs can't be ported to jflte devices because ROM ports I believe have to come from a phone with similar processor type and architecture.
The only S4 that runs Android 6 TouchWiz ROMs is the klte (GT-I9506), which has a Snapdragon 800 processor. So it's similar to the S5, and that made ports possible or easier.

Tthe HTC one m7 google play edition (2013)has 5.1 right it has almost the same specs as the s4 i9505 maybe we could use that as a base for TW roms and port mm apps easily and maybe nougat

Guys it's not impossible to port android 6.0.1 TouchWiz to GS4 i9505 its just hard to do so. There will be a lot of code changes and stuff like that.

And even then, if some developer ports MM TW, it will be very buggy, and by the time the bugs got fixed, everybody will move on to newer devices.
Think about this way: if that would be possible, a port would already be done.

And that's the problem right there the s4 is dying with everyday passes.
I noticed to all the ports of other phones that use TW are on Kitkat why not on a higher Android version like 5x or 7x..?
Iam using Note 7 port from E Team at the moment and that only on 4.4.4 why not 5x or 7x Android..?
CynogenMod is on 7x so why not other roms.
What you think..??

Bcuz it's not possible to use touchwiz apps on cynogenmod.
1.You cannot post these kind of stuffs in this thread
2.Since the stock kernel for above 4.4 didn't provided by Samsung,devs cannot build touchwiz based rom of lollipop or higher

There ain't any TouchWIZ ROMs released by Samsung for our Exynos chipset. (Like for the Note 2, S3 etc). All run on Kitkat.
And also if it where there i need a F2FS patched kernel for AOSP's kernel to work on TW ROMs (which uses a different file system from AOSP for higher android versions).
Else i could've made an attempt like i did for Grand Prime. (But storage will not work, then someone good at compiling kernels could help me at that).
Regards!
Ok I understand,I would use CM but don't like the way it looks too Googly with the google Icons and thats,I hate Google phones and the way the ui looks,Samsung IU looks alot better and I didn't buy a Sam Phone for it to look like a Google one,oh what the themes like,is the a TW theme..??Is there a app launcher that acts like TW,Just fix this phone too,didn't connect to a network,now it does.. any one tried Note 7 rom..?

I would like to port TAB S2 Nougat Rom for my Note 4 N910K Exynos 5433 phone. I always flashed custom roms but all of them have too many features and I all want is stock Nougat for Note 4. I don't need the S-pen functionality just Nougat and network to work nicely.
I never did any rom development or any compiling but I'm willing to learn.
It would be really appreciated if someone could list all the software and steps for porting.
As I said I have no idea how its done but I know that I need stock base firmware and kernel so it actually boots up.
