Ics for att note

Can we please get one of you talented devs to work on an ics rom for the att note? I'd be willing to donate for your work.

What part of
" [NOTICE] If YOU DID NOT CREATE "it" THEN IT DOESN'T BELONG IN DEVELOPMENT"
are you not understanding? This belongs in the General Discussion area.

Nope! It belongs to the AT&T Note Forum!

N7000 = Non LTE "international" version.
Though he may not be in the right thread
You may notice that his request is that a dev from from the international note forum help make a LTE version.
I'm guessing that since the LTE version just came out, the people over there are eager for some ICS ROMs.
To the OP.
Just be patient, eventually some devs will start making stuff for the CDMA/LTE version. Or as the ICS ROM matures, some devs make both GSM and CDMA versions of their ROMs.
be patient. we might have ics for our note but its not as stable as you think for a daily rom
That's what you get for buying at&t. You knew beforehand it would have worse dev support so don't whine.

I agree. In fact as much as I like to ROM my galaxy nexus, I haven't done my Note yet due to the fact that we don't have (m)any mature ROMs.
I think a lot of the people (on both sides of the fence) are waiting till a more mature, official ICS ROM comes out before we take the plunge.
Right now, I'm just enjoying my phone and not worrying too much about customizations (I have my Nexus to blow up on a daily/weekly basis for that).
Can a mod close this thread This doesnt belong in our forum or the dev section. At&t Galaxy Notes have no ICS leaks. You can hope for CM9, but the At&t crapdragon powered Note is completely different from ours.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
please move
Or you can just sell the crapdragon note and get the intl version. I did the same.
Thanks for those of you that provided constructive feedback. I apologize for breaking the forum rules as my intent was not to offend anyone. I actually started with the international note and sold it for the att version because of the Lte capability. I will just have to be patient and wait. But I will say getting 50mbps download speeds on att Lte network is hard to give up and go back to the international note which is only hspa+ capable.
Thanks again. I really admire you guys and your work.

[Topic]G730A Root/KDZ

Hi, quick question and topic.
I've overcame a ton of comments primarily from last years release of the Samsung G730A S III Mini model claiming root to no root outcomes.
Is the community for devs still trying to open a port or a guide for a successful G730A root?
I ask this as I see that we were the only form of outcasted Mini users.
If that be said, what are the chances that KitKat could make for an easier root process?
Also, anyone know if a kdz flash is possible for this device?
I ask this after my first Android :sly: Thrill 4G was one of the outcasted phone that finally got a root with a kdz flash, the Thrill forum lost all support and anyone interested in new roms had to stay on a EU dedicated kdz that was promised a developer and rom set.
Basically stating that all users were stuck on an EU Baseband with 3G and sometimes 4G LTE if the rom provided even that.

Bumping!
I'm not gonna watch a phone die out because people won't go out of their way to help the G730A community!
There's someone hiding in the dark and not giving answers.
Now we just sit here and watch others gloat and boast about their root? Whenever someone even mentions G730A in a thread the thread just dies out of communication.

Yeah... like seriously! I got the phone when it came out in sept 2013 and been waiting ever since. I voided my warranty by letting an idiot friend drop my phone, with physical damage to the bezel of the phone, I can now root it and do whatever I want. I'm still waiting. But to be honest, I'd rather have the s4 for the bigger screen. But until then I am waiting for kitkat.

Question bout roms

What's the best rom for the note 3 att I'm on 4.4.2 any suggestions I am confused bout which ones will work I'm not a new just confused any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk
I'm running DK is pretty solid. But there's other options to. I've tried a few but had to come back because of other ones separating group messaging. But all you can do is test the waters and see what's right for you.

A moderator will probably tell you
" XDA is a development site not a support site. As such members are expected to do the research, read through the development threads and decide what is BEST for them. The only results that would be posted here are what each member has found to be BEST for them by experimentation based on their phone/usage/setup/apps/signal strength. Please take the time to read through those development threads to learn all about the software you are about to drastically alter your very expensive device with.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation."
Or they might say " ROM comparison threads are not allowed.
We recommend trying a ROM, seeing if it fits your needs, flashing another ROM, see if you like it better, and then repeat over and over and over again. Flashing over and over is after all what XDA is about.*"

I'm on AT&T. I wanted to know what rom AT&T users are on who are using a rooted tmo note 4. Can you please move this thread back to the AT&T forum?
Still using Firekat. never done me wrong to make we want to change lol.
FireKat or Poprocks, by Dev: Mega.... it's the best ROM for the Note 4. I invite anyone to prove me wrong lol...I average 6 hours of on screen time a day with regular use. My record is 8.5 Hours of on screen time on a full charge on 50% brightness. It's killer.
That thread is for the N910a device, which is the ATT Note 4. It is not for people using their T-Mobile Note 4's on ATT. The forum is for the device, not the carrier.
Edit:
Plus, 1) roms don't change the basebands on your phone nor do they affect usage on different carriers. So since the T-Mobile Note 4 can be used on ATT anyway, any rom you use will ultimately work with ATT.
So make a choice based on the feedback you are receiving from people here because whatever rom you choose will work on ATT.
2) I don't move threads, but did report the thread as being in the wrong place.
3) A moderator reviewed the report before making the move and would've kept the thread where it was if they didn't agree that your thread didn't belong. So a mod agreed with me and moved your thread.

Np. Sorry for the confusion. I didnt explain myself correctly

US Varients (AT&T/T-MOBILE/VERIZON)root progress thread.

I have searched the forums and the web trying to find a thread for a "root progress" (like the one we had on the LG V30 side of the world) of our T-MOBILE/AT&T/VERIZON/SPRINT note 9, but didn't find any. If there is one already, please remove this thread and provide me a link to it if you may.
Anyway,
There are two reasons why I'm creating this thread:
1. We used to have forums that are carrier specific. It was very neat and organized. I'd never gotten confused on finding something related to my device. Now, it is just one and very very cluttered forum for all varients (to the point that I'm not sure which variant is rootable and which isn't. And that's why I left out the sprint varient because I'm honestly not sure). There are so many threads that makes it so hard to find what you're looking for.
2. I'd like to know if there are any devs out there that are working on root for this phone (on the carriers mentioned above) and whether they need help testing. If there is; I'm sure there are a ton of users who are willing to help, including me.
I'd love for some devs to chime in and give us some updates. Not asking for any ETAs, but would love to know if there is any work being done. If there is, then please consider this thread to share your progress with us
So, feel free to throw your comments on here. Also, if you're a user who's wondering about root, has thoughts about root, would like to chat about it, go ahead, vent it out.
Cheers
::good::

I am also interest in US variant root progress. I am on Sprint though. Wish you had included us too in OP. I am willing to test out if anyone is developing.
Hi
Great idea, maybe if we show interest some of the dev's might take up the challenge.
We can hope.

Wont ever happen thats why i returned it and got the 960f for tmobile i left sprijt
It's a pipe dream to get root on the US variants. Samsung has even blocked SamFail and similar root. The bootloaders cannot be unlocked and the snapdragon processor models are doomed.
Join @pbedard, myself, and others; return your snapdragon model and buy the 960F.
The Note 9 is great, but it's amazing with root. ??

carrier specific should be banned and never be implemented again.
it causes confusion and is just a waste of resources. people ask questions and get less visibility because 90% of all questions or releases are CPU based and not carrier related.
it's simply a less efficient way of going about things.
carrier related issues and questions should actually be discussed in that specific carriers website. what good is it to discuss or bring up carriers issues in xda when you actually want and need carriers support and visibility from their end to fix or correct their issues?
issues that are based on device type or general custom development should be kept on xda as is: by cpu. there are sections for general inquires and such that can easily be used for the 10% asking questions or support for a specific carrier.
BTW
extra extra read all about it:
no root for the n960 snapdragon. it's a moot point and progress is that there is no progress. I'd think if the people that were working and progressing getting root were actually getting somewhere they would have already posted info by now. speculative threads wishing for something is not progress and I don't think its gonna " attract " people to suddenly develope root because if it.
it will come when it does if it does.
edit:
to prove my point for the carrier thing:
in Canada we also have the note 9 snapdragon.
960w Bell/rogers/telus/videotron/wind mobile...etc and so on.
should the forums be re-spliced for all of these too? lol no

its really the carriers imo.. well the US mainly haha.. most all other devices are unlockable outside of the US..
but agreed, especially with the RMM stuff they implemented recently even on unlockable devices..

I honestly cant afford to pay for this phone outright. I wish I could. I would've gotten the exynos varient and called it a day, financing through tmobile was the only option I had to get my hands on this phone. Even without root, it's still a stellar phone.

Is root even worth it anymore tbh ? What if we tried to get Volte and wifi calling working on the unbranded firmware ?

You could have gotten one on ebay and pay it over six months with the PayPal Credit option. That's what I did to get Exynos model.
