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...
Is there a TW based 7.0+ ROM for this phone?

I haven't tested it. I figured it was base stuff on it and I don't like basic.

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.

this is what I've been using for awhile now. solid for me. i could recommend it
I'm a newbie here, so please forgive me if I'm asking anything out of line. But I'm looking for a version of Nougat that will work on my memo pad 7. Does one actually exist, and if so, where can I find it?
Thanks for any help you can give.
not that i could find
I habe the same memopad which updated to lollipo but not higher via ota
There is an unofficial build of LineageOS 14.1 (based on Android 7.1.2) available for the MeMO Pad 7 me176c(x).
But it's an experimental alpha preview build so there are a couple of things that doesn't work (for now).
It's also your responsibility if things goes wrong during the installation or by using this ROM.
Link to the thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/me...-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-asus-memo-t3633341
What version of the memopad are you using?
I have the SM-T713 running stock nougat 7.0. The tablet does everything I need it to do just fine. I have flashed Lineage OS 14.1 on a phone that was stuck at 6.0 and it's a nice stable ROM with a lot of features I don't really need. I'm torn between leaving my S2 alone (and hoping it gets 8.0 sometime in the future) and flashing Lineage to get rid of the Samsung bloatware (though it doesn't really interfere with anything I do.) I don't really need the Lineage custom features but it would be nice to have my S2 and my phone (Moto G3) look the same.
I'm soliciting any and all opinions on the flash or not flash dilemma. A valid response would include "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." If anyone has flashed their S2 with Lineage and would like to comment (pro or con), that would be great too.
Just go and look around the thread. read the post if got any problem to the current build. if you satisfied with it then flash away. if not just stay with samsung. Use Nova Launcher or apex and find the same theme for your phone as well. what use flashing a not ready custom rom. And If you find it solid for daily driver why not?
Title is self-explanatory.
Define "worth it?" Does 15.1 have features you want that aren't available on stock Nougat? Do you want to get rid of Samsung's "bloatware?" Do you always want to be on the latest Android version? Are you willing to live with possible OS issues that don't exist with the stock ROM?
Only you can answer these questions. I am on stock Nougat and am thinking about LineageOS 15.1 but I'm having a hard time justifying the move since my stock S2 does everything I need it to do.
Good luck!
For me to a buy a device, Lineage has to be available. It's the reason I bought the T813, when the Tab S3 was out. Jumping from stock to Lineage 14.1 is no question. Going to Lineage 15.1, well, tougher choice, but I'd still do it. Only reason I say that is not as much stuff as been ported into 15.1, it's missing features that 14.1 had. It works fine, just realize they're only on the second official release. It does boot quicker than 14.1. The biggest selling point to Lineage for me is the Privacy Guard, being able to select which apps can do what, and what apps can have access to data (data access has not been ported into 15.1 yet).
You have some control over this stuff in the stock system, but not to the degree of Lineage, want to block an app from your contacts, running in the background, your location, your camera, running at startup, etc, you can do all of that.
You can always go back to stock if you don't like Lineage, so I don't really see the downside to trying it out.
I've attempted to root this tablet with kingo app, and also pc version. But it stops at 90%. can anyone tell me best way to root an old tablet like this and also the highest version I can use and if it can be done by a novice with no experience?
TIA
Hi, just stay at official Android 6, or upgrade to LineAge OS 14.1 (Android 7)
