Hi Guys ! Is somebody already trying to boot Cyanogenmod ? I'm a reverse engineer, have done quite a bit of development work on CM11 for the S4 I9500 and just ordered my Note 4 snapdragon and planning to run and optimize CM12 on our Snapdragon Note 4

Yes, I'm hoping more developers will switch to this device and will start working on booting and running CM as smooth as possible. I just ordered my note 4 yesterday, I still have to wait 2 weeks to receive my device (I don't live in a snapdragon country), hoping to work together with some other devs but if not, going to give booting CM myself a try and will update and report here for sure !
I'm new to the Note line so I have a question. Does the S-Pen work (just work, non of the fancy features) with custom Roms or do devs need to optimize it?
I would love to see it running Lollipop.
Patience... is the key. It will happen.

The spen will work on any rom but samsung specific apps like snote will only work on samsung based roms. On cm based roms there are alternative apps like papyrus and on the note 2 there were specific spen apps made for cm roms so guess the same thing will probably happen on the n4

"This forum is intended for XDA members to find or discuss development on the Galaxy Note 4, including ROMs, kernels, rooting, mods and much more, specifically for the Qualcomm Snapdragon variant of the Note 4."
Sounds like the right place to me.
Anyway on topic: here's the general porting method: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro and here the samsung code: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=910f
Unfortunately going by what Samsung released previously, we'll need code directly from Qualcomm, did anybody find chipset code for the 805 already ?
And here's the Lollipop Nexus 6 (of course also running snapdragon 805) code:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/android-lollipop-source-pushed-to-aosp/
Oh and also found this thread, should be helpful to get a start: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2532873
Anyway, getting my device in 2 weeks, hopefully around that time CM12 will be released too, mabye we should wait for that anyway, but I wanted to start this thread already to function as a knowledge sharing thread regarding getting cyanogenmod running on the Note 4. Going to do some digging in the sources codes already and see what's there and what's missing.

Sorry but I really miss your point man. This is development and most importantly, this is Snapdragon: this thread has really not much to do with Exynos (which most likely will never even run CM12, at least not in the next year), so I really don't see in which forum it would be more ontopic than this one. If you disagree, let me know in which forum you feel it should be posted in and why and if it makes sense, I'll ask the mod, but again, I really don't see it.

Wow, that's really wonderful news, you made my day man, thanks !!! :good: :fingers-crossed: Can't wait to flash it (need to wait 2 weeks to get my hands on the device though, damn, hehe). I've done quite a bit of work on the i9500, Ironing out bugs by reverse engineering stock ROM and my goal is to make CM12 on our Note 4 the best Cyanogenmod experience so far ! Man, really cant wait !
I just got mine yeaterday im super excited. I'm really surprised how steady it feels in hands. It doesn't feel like a Samsung device at all. My babe is already rooted and unlocked just waiting on lollipop

Pointless thread in developer forum. Can't wait to see this closed. What is become of xda that anyone can post what he likes and where he wants.
I'm wondering if there's any aosp roms in development for the note been eagerly waiting for like a cm 12 rom or something but nothing yet. I'm seeing the galaxy s4,5 and note 3 getting their cm 12 roms so maybe the note 4 one soon comes?
Practically every device has it except us.
Developers are waiting until we get the Official 5.0 update to do any CM, AOSP, etc.
Aosp is booting on our device already. Its being fine tuned. Soon
Cant wait !!

As far as I know there aren't any threads. Slayher posted images of Lollipop running on the Note 4 a few weeks ago on Google+.
Yes can anyone let us know if this is happening?
I have a oneplus one right now... A little afraid to leave it behind and go to the note 4. I love having CM12 or AOSP on my phone... Don't know if I can go to touchwiz. lol!
I would love to say is jump on it but as always I'm sure the camera will be total crap as always. Absolutely kills the photo quality
He posted a video a couple days ago. Hold for links
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=57184749
And of course camera will just be basic, it's just the point of having the option to flash it is what I dig about samsung. I'm the minority Samsung fanboy, but doesn't mean I don't like some cm or aosp based Roms just to mix it up.
Ok - I'm not a big camera guy anyway... But it's a toss up between this or a nexus 6... But I love having a removable battery... The 1+1 just isn't cutting it for me right now...
I keep seeing posts by people moaning about note 5 for what ? Sammy don't care about xda members.
Why don't we get all the best developers of note 4 owners to work together to port the Base of note 5 ROM over to note 4 and then they can all go each there own way and work on the ROM as they please.
PS. I think Sammy didn't include the ext sd because idiot Google started introducing the vague restrictions on what you can do with the ext sd. That combined with there war with apple.
I will go for note 5 when it comes to UK only because it has the spen which no other phone has so like so many others I won't be moving to LG or what ever.
Please developers work together in porting it over so we can get it faster to note 4.
this is always the dream/hope.

It would still be touchwiz. Thus slow and a waste of time.
When we get officialy 5.1.1 porting Roms like s6 edge and note 5 will be easier right? And they will even work better than they already do?
i finally had a fast touchwiz woth simplerom thaks for the devs :thumbup:
give it a try if your sick of tw lag

I got Bobcat ROM and I am using 3c toolbox and no lag. Thus fast and worth the time.
such a rom port would probably only be possible for note4s with exynos!
a snapdragon port would be nice, although I highly doubt that that would possible!

And why wouldn't that be possible?
There where a lot of things devs said wouldn't be possible when the note 3 came out with the knoks chip but e still got our root sorted and able to flash custom roms and let alone rooting without triggering the knoks.
So I can assure you its possible but the more top devlepors that works together on it the better and quicker it will happen.
Sadly they ain't interested in doing so. They just working on roms for note 4 that are already working as that's easier.
Seems like we need a rough Dev to kick start this project.

The s6 and s6 edge are exynos too but Dr.keetan here on xda and friedrich420 on echoerom forum succeded in porting them to the note 4 f variant which is a snapdragon. So it should not be impossible

It surely is possible and it comes. Think of the S6 Edge ports.
But it will take time, until someone figures it out.
i have been looking into note 5 firmware and have a build that boots to bootanimation then reboots after 1-2 minutes but thats it
Of course it doesn't help that there is only an exynos note 5 and a good chunk of us has snapdragon

great man! Keep up the good work please!
It's sad to see Note 5 ports for the S6 and no ports yet for our beloved Note 4!
I really hope someone ports the Note 5 software to the note 4. I keep checking xda every couple of days in hope of something popping up. To me it made no sense porting the Note 5 software to the S6 when it has no S Pen???

Point taken. I'm only seeing where it is "older" devices so far (unless you have found a way to prove me wrong about that too). My original suspicion was that developers were waiting on the release of the Note7 to get cracking. Instead, they would now be waiting on the Note8.
AOSP on the Note series is no good without a working S Pen (might as well have bought a S6, S7 or soon to be released S8)

Of course the S6 is like 2 devices behind the S series...... I'm just wondering if its worth my time to dev or not.
the t-mobile S6 forums are dead, but the general (international?) S6 forums still have alot of activity.

The ONLY reason I have NOT upgraded to a 7 or 8 the locked bootloader issue. I bought by S6 Edge Tmob variant Apr 2015. Still use it. I switch a lot between International and Tmob version ROMs except since the new firmware FINALLY came out for Nougat...no ROMs posted here. So basically I have been running my own custom ROM so to speak. I'm rooted with Magisk. I currently am using a kernel posted somewhere called [email protected] #1. It allowed me to install AOD files, but even tough I have all the appropriate switches in Display settings and the various FONT clocks etc, I can't get AOD to actually show on my standby screen, so I'm missing something. I posted a thread how to install Viper with the stock rooted TMobile firmware. So basically, I for one consider myself as active as I can around here and have tried to do so ever since getting my SM-G925T over two years ago. When on MM I had faithfully been using your last 11.5 MM Edge kernel too and believe I did offer some *beer* for your efforts back when you released that final product. I for one would be more than happy to offer anything I can as far as possible testing on my device in the future. Thanks again, for your efforts too.
yeah it looks like.... forums are dead but we ain"t gonna say R.I.P yet... still waiting for some custom rom and kernal for nougat

Totally ignorant on that app. Just googled and a quick read. Really an interesting application I intend on diving into. Appreciate the reference. Downloaded the latest version. Much appreciated.
I'm still around. However my XDA app seems to have died. It hasn't updated anything in a few weeks. Like others have said, not going for a locked bootloader. The S6 will probably be my last Samsung phone for that reason.
Been a long time since I've been on here... Thinking about rooting again. I've been out and about and gave up messing with my phone for a while, but with the new update... I'm not that impressed with Nougat.. I still love my S6 though. Is there still a root even though I've updated to Nougat?

Not only that but also taking a leap and actually attempting to teach us non-devs how to build a Samsung kernel!
