Project is stopped because i have no free time.
All my code is released on Bitbucket feel free to use it.

ResurrectionRemix master!!!!

Lol, I was just starting to think if getting K4 Note would be worthful, because custom rom would be something mandatory in a phone for me, mostly when I prefer AOSPish Roms over any skin, now I see that things are going to worth =)

It's good to see that finally someone is willing to DEVELOP a ROM for our beloved K4 ..
Btw I had done some search.
Found out that Jiayu S3+ has the same specifications as K4 NOTE.
And plenty of rom are available for Jiayu S3+, so it would be great if you could port a ROM.

Start from AOSP then proceed with Cyanogen. So that it'll help others too.

I guess better way to start is with a pure CM Rom, btw, what one you're going to build? CM13 or CM12.1 (please be CM13)
You can also benefit from the work of M.A.D Team, crediting of course:
https://github.com/MediatekAndroidDevelopers
those are kernel, device and vendor trees.
Jiayu S3 Plus has same hardware (MT6753)
Vernee Thor too, but the build on github is a Nougat Aosp one, based in 3.18.19 kernel, same as K4 MM Based Kernel.

What's up with the lack of Nougat roms with this device?

I respectfully ask this question and have no intention to
offend any devs. I am currently planning to buy this phone and when
I looked at here to check on roms that I could use on my phone, I got a little overwhelmed by the lack of Nougat roms.
It is already almost 2017 and the roms are usualy lollipop or marshmallow. I expected at least to see Nougat roms.
Did the devs stopped supporting this device or about to?

yeah I am aware of the unofficial cm 14 rom but still, only one nougat rom.
I still expect more nougat rom since this is a popular phone
I read somewhere that this cm 14 rom has a lot of problems like not being able to receive and make calls. Heaven forbid if LTE with Tmobile sim even work on this rom. But correct me if i'm wrong.
I have been able to make calls with the latest build of the VZ rom. However this ROM is no longer under development since Cyanogenmod is dead. All the developers using cyanogenmod as their base are going to have to shift to something else or else they will be working with a stagnating code base. I'd expect a small period of little development for many ROMs while this shift takes place to directly using AOSP as their base or the spinoff of CM LineageOS to get up and running. As for the lack of Nougat ROMs at all. N has only been out since around Aug, and the note 4 isn't exactly a recent phone any longer. So you've got a dwindling user base with an even smaller base of developers that have the knowledge to build the ROMs still using the phone. In the end I wish the dev of that VZ Nougat ROM kept working on it. Likely all of the code fixes could be merged into LineageOS since it is the CyanogenMod code base

I use the 12/25 build as a daily driver. The only issues that affect me is: Camera(fixed with another app), Gallery(fixed with another app), sometimes screen wont wake up easy If you are on a long call.(this is rare for me). No VOLTE. Other than those things its a great rom.

I've tried installing the [ROM] [7.1.1] [UNOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 14.1 ROM(Verizon) on my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 but am having issues with it once it reboots. The root seems to be lost and once I use SuperSU to install Root and the phone just boots in a loop. I'm guessing this has to do with the bootloader(Note4) vs Verizon. I'm not sure but could be wrong. Could someone please suggest a way to get my root on this Verizon Nougat ROM.

Don't use supersu with this rom. I learned that it's more of a headache than not. Enable developer options. CM's Root access is in there. I'm on EPJ2 baseband. Also make sure you download the extra file in the OP (Something telephony, i can't remember). You need that If you ever restore a backup or you won't have data. This rom seems to be the most battery-friendly rom I've installed for this phone. Even tho I do miss Fast Charge...

this is the ORIGINAL development thread for that rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/development/emotionos-t3528639
its Emotion OS which is based on LineageOS (formerly Cyanogen Mod 14 aka CM 14 ). Its Nougat rom AOSP pretty much, it works fine on the N910T, ive tested and you can verify it works from the posts in that thread. You must be on a 910T Marshmallow based bootloader or the rom may not work correctly. verified working fine on EPJ2 bootloader.
So pretty much if you want it to work:
ODIN official N910TUVU2EPJ2 Samsung firmware
install recovery
flash EmotionOS from recovery

We don't need official Nougat for Note 4 for that. Just wait until Nougat is completely released for S7/Edge, and there will probably be a S7 Nougat port to the N910F/FD/T/W8/V/P/G. Plus, we'll also have an S8/Edge port (I'm sure) and that will probably be Nougat, so don't get your hopes down.
I have Nougat on my Google Pixel XL.
It works great and custom AOSP/LineageOS ROM's are all rock solid/stable.
But with no sign of Xposed being available for Nougat anytime soon, I would not be in a rush to move to Nougat if I were ya'll.
As of today, it does not look good for Xposed to ever be fully released for Nougat.
And even if it were, you'd be looking at more time before all the GOOD xposed modules are updated to work with Nougat.

Yeah, the alpha build 1 of Cm 13 is awesome. Just has a few bugs that Rayman has fixed just awaiting the new build now. We also have an Miui rom. Mynogen never heard of that one.

How is CM13? I'm considering a Note 5 but previous phones with Samsung jank/lag have scared me away from Samsung. I've also heard the Note 5 has severe battery issues for some. Does CM13 fix these issues? Thank you!

Kernel has nothing to do with aptX. Moreover, it's proprietary and requires licensing to OEMs.
