ROM OS Version: 4.4.x KitKat
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
Version Information
Status: Beta
Created 2014-06-27
Last Updated 2014-06-27
Latest Build
V1.0, SlimKat 4.4.4 Build 6
Mobile data Doesn't work Confirmed
Auto Brightness doesn't work confirmed SlimRoms bug. It's only being polled every 10 seconds.
As far as I know, everything else is fine
I will upload the device folders at a later point closer to when SlimKat goes official for condor.
The kernel is pretty much stock, with minor edits to make camcorder work, and modules load.
Information and Requests
Firstly I'd like to massively apologise for not uploading this till now.
As some of you will already know, I have been somewhat ill due to the amount of work I have been putting in to my projects (no not for moto e).
To make up for this, I am posting a build now as a taster on the aosp qcom sources, rather than the newer caf based qcom sources. It's a daily usable rom, however later builds will have better performance.
I am also releasing a build of cm11 shortly.
XT1022 Is not supported as neither sim will work.
Now for the requests. at some point in the future (a few days, maybe a week), I will need access to the dual sim variant of the Moto E running stock. Ideally I will need access via TeamViewer to a windows or linux based pc with adb already set up, and an unlocked/rooted device that wants cm11.
I repeat.
Dual Sim is coming soon. Please stop asking
Thank you for being patient with me, but it will all soon pay off
from now on, If a question is asked that is answered already in the first page, or the last ten posts, or one that is easy to find with the search bar, please link this post to them.
Yay!! Thanks for your hard work! Will try this tomorrow
Just one question: Dual sim is supported?

No but I'll say the approach you should take to fix it.
To build, there is an error that shows from qcom/media. To fix that you had to patch a kernel header. Use git to find the commit the definition is made, and that will fix camera.
To fix bt, check the bt loading script in etc. You will notice there are two blobs missing. Running these blobs will show there is another blob missing.
What other bugs do you have?

First of all congrats man
Here are some of the doubts
Since I have a Indian version moto e (dual sim) as per the given information it won't support so my doubt is if I install this ROM will at least one sim work I don't care about other sim and hate dual sim and do I need to replace any files from stock ROM?
Thanks in advance

Ok thankyou to all the people who replied regarding dual sim. You truly are the best community I've been in so far.
Once I've got cm11 rolling I'll contact one of you to set up a build.
I know the fact that slim doesn't support dual sim is a disappointment, so here's the deal. If I get hold of a dual sim moto e, I will bring support for dual sim devices to Slim (probably unofficially).

Exactly, you can do a weekly(or bi-weeklies) unofficial builds and post them in the same thread.
That would be awesome.:good:
Ok before any mods start messaging me/closing thread, I forgot to push the patched kernel source last night. I get on a computer in an hour or so. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please read first page or at least few previous posts always before posting. It should answer your questions.
Hi,
I don't want to waste your time, but I think this is a proper time to ask a question.
This tablet(s) are 9 months on the market. Tons of ROMs came to see the daylight, every less important variant of this device got AOSP or CM builds for them, and that's awesome! And everybody enjoy their cool tablets, except ... the owners of the best and most important variant - 10.5 LTE. And there is even official T705 CM12 build! Why not for T805?
I feel sorry I don't have any knowledge in programming or porting, neither I have any pleasure in doing it. But there are a lot of great and talented chiefs who love to port and build good ROMs who make a good TW stuff, and a lot of guys who make AOSP for ... WiFi version. Noone is interested in LTE model, and there is a lot of T805 users out there waiting for AOSP release and asking on every Tx00 threads for builds for their devices.
I have a lot of respect for hard work everyone do here, and we all understand everyone of you - talented chiefs here - have limited time and possibilities. I am personally very grateful for your effort. And don't get my post wrong. All it is about is to ask: Why? Why there are CMs, AOSPs for T800, which I think is not so much different from LTE model,and there is NOTHING AOSP for T805....
I think there will be more than only me to greatly ask for attention from great developers of xda, to ask them for xda miracle for us. Please, make something AOSP for T805... please please please! Let us see this:
Code:

We all would be so grateful for your help, to let us feel the Google Experience..
Thank you!
HUGE UPDATE
It looks like we got it! Finally, good working Lollipop with LTE on our amazing devices. Now the Tab S got a new life, with pure Google Experience! For everyone interested, check out our great developer who made a HUGE effort to make this happen (big cudos to AndyT12) and his website with updates and downloads:

AAAND HERE WE GO!
Another AOSP from cool developer deadman96385:

Unfortunately LTE still does not work here but they have just the initial build se let's be patient! Thank you!
UPDATE ON NEXT GREAT BUILDS
We are happy to see yet another great build with working LTE! This time it's amazing work from developer Nexorr who managed available sources from NVertigo and AndyT to build this ROM! Check the links below to download the stuff:

Thank you Nexorr for your huge effort!
Yes.. I'm interested this project... Available for Betatester on my Sm-t805.... Happy to see Android v5.1.1 full working on this device
T805 is alot different than T800. Nvertigo explained why a while back. One simply cannot build without having the device. In my guessing, more people probably have wifi ones vs lte models in which most devs have Idk. Nvertigo made a thread also on how to build/port. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3031278
It requires a ton of work so... yeah.
So there is no hope, I guess...
Btw I thought there are much more interested people in the AOSP. I was wrong, it seems. 248 visitors came across this thread without even a word, so let's say it: buy N9 or eat TW rubbish.
Would @nvertigo67 be willing if we all donated to his PayPal or something? I'm not sure if he has seen this thread or not.

Whoever read the cm12.1 for t800 thread knows about how much time I can spend on development untill November: it's hardly enough to keep up the development for t800.
So: no, I will not develop for a different device for now.
I said MANY times: there is a cm11 development for chagalllte and cm12.1 for klimtlte. Thats a good starting point.

Hi Andrew! It is so great to hear! This is so cool! Thanks for the information. Are you willing to make xda thread also? Thanks!
PS. Is this build working or it is relatively experimental one? I am worried to lose my data or backups etc..
Hi, i have problems with download, it is so slow and then breaks the download fail. Any oher options to download ?
It was so great CM12.1 for the tab T805 LTE...... and great Job Thanks
One question, must i use your twrp or is it ok with the Original twrp i have 5.0.2 on my tab Iron Rom lollipop
Same here, download fail. But anyway, thank you for your effort! Would really like to try it.
Btw backing up efs, in twrp?
I could use a quick HOW-TO, @andyt12:
with both your provided Odin3.07, and my own Odin3.10, I could not graphically locate either your .md5sum file, nor the .zip ROM archive. At least I *could* enter the file/archive names at the Odin text-entry-box...
but that produced another pair of issues:
-although the suffix ".md5sum" isn't recognized, direct-entry of the filename indicates "binary corrupted" or similar
-entering the .zip archive directly results in Odin message-box saying "success 0/failed 1"
I am really, really excited at the prospect of CM12.1 for my tablet (matching my phone). But I seem to be sort of stuck at some basic point. BTW, I already had TWRP-2.8.6.0 installed on my T805, so I left that and did not try your provided version...
Thank-you for you efforts! I deeply appreciate the work you've put into this!
GordP
is this for t-805y or just t-805 ? since u seem from OZ the version i have is from telstra.
This is awesome. I'm so grateful someone is making a CM12 for t805. Will be trying it soon. Do we have a list of known issues/things that still need work?

There is any issue or bugs in this rom ?
Cuz there is no info about rom
So, here's what I did/got:
To repeat dev's words:
Make sure you use EFS backup tools (for example, there's one in Play store) to backup your EFS/IMEI partitions somewhere in a safe place (not just on a tablet).
1. Was not able to install Andrew's TWRP (Odin claims it's broken, redownloading the tar.md5 didn't help).
2. Used my own TWRP (latest, from XDA) to wipe system/data/caches, then install the CM12 zip Andrew has created.
3. Installed latest 5.1.x gapps (micro) from here: http://www.androidrootz.com/2015/03/download-android-51x-lollipop-pa-gapps.html
4. Rebooted
ROM booted just fine, no errors or issues so far.
Bluetooth tested and works.
Wifi tested and works.
Mobile network and data tested and works.
Root, ADB work
USB works - able to see both device storage & SDcard
CPU: usage seems normal, with cores ranging from 200MHz to 1.9GHz. Although I don't see any cores disabling during no load. Not sure if this is normal.
Performance: subjective. To me, device seems a hell of a lot snappier. Transitions, scrolling, app switching - noticeably smoother than on Lollipop TW.
GPU test: tested in a game (hearthstone), performace is the same as on stock ROM, didn't see any difference.
Temperature: max 43C so far, seems the same.
Camera: both front and back cameras work
Battery: device is sleeping fine, no wakelocks. Battery usage completely flattens when it's sleeping, so, in a few days, I'm expecting a good battery life.
Charging: I think it's the same as on stock: around +500mA when device is ON and on a wall charger.
Bug: Samsung's stock docking keyboard: everything works, expect the app switch button.
Bug: In app switcher - there's an error loading the search widget. No big deal, but it's a thing.
Device info screen
Continuing to test other features, but so far, no issues encountered. Getting really freaking excited.

Thank you for this info
What about battery and temperature of device ?
And if he used default kernel speed for cpu
Sorry for long questions
Finally what about speed and what is better TW or CM12.1 ?
All the answers before my post ? ??
Hi everybody. I was trying to make work XOSP for our device. Even after the hard work of @nitin.chobhe, who did everything (really great job, man. Always thanks for all your work), there are various problem. First of all SIM card. I flashed the zip and SIM card is not recognized. I searched about it and I discovered that it's a common problem using cm repos in local_manifest, which are no longer updated. I saw @[email protected] and other devs solved with @temasek help. So he tried with temasek's repos, but he get this error:
Code:
device/samsung/hlte-common/gps/core/loc_core_log.cpp:134:15: error: constant expression evaluates to 4294967295 which cannot be narrowed to type 'long' [-Wc++11-narrowing]
Another problem is sdcard. It works, but media files on it are not automatically recognized, but if you open a file in sdcard, it being open.
There is also sound crack, but I think that it's the most easy to fix. I'll try flashing the audio-policy zip.
As for now these are the biggest bugs. I'll keep the thread updated. Again, thanks to @nitin.chobhe for his great work and support.
Ivan
EDIT 23 June 2016 - 11.27: Changing hlte-common repos back to cm's one it seems it worked. Dunno the final result. By the way audio problem is fixed, as I thought it was a problem with audiopolicy.so. Changed with Samsung's one and now sounds great.
EDIT 23 June 2016 - 12.18: Good news and bad news. Camera is fixed, battery life is alot better, phone is very smooth, no other heat problems, but SIM still doesn't work. EFS restore from TWRP didn't work. Will try some other methods.
EDIT 23 June 2016 - 12.36: Nothing to do. Even flashing latest modem and bootloader SIM is not recognised. I give up. Hope some other devs keep the project alive. Greetings

Well, unfortunately I don't have that build anymore, and btw now it's obsolete. Moreover, I don't have neither my Note 3 nor my building setup anymore. I'm now happy with OnePlus 3, where all the correct sources are out, and there are never problems compiling. Samsung devices are not that good for building cm-based ROMs IMHO, surely not for XOSP. I asked a famous dev in Note 3 CM section (I don't want to write his name) to try to compile it, and he said me he did, but he never released it (and maybe he never compiled it too), and he never answered my pm anymore. XOSP could be a great ROM for Note 3, but nobody cares about it, unfortunately
Hope someone will think about it.
I have decided to release my Verizon Note 7 port ROM for the public so that those of you wanting the best software features available for your Note 4, can have a good ROM base to work with. This ROM is not 100% finished but it is working for the most part. Calls, texts, wifi, bluetooth, etc is all working as far as I know. The purpose of this ROM and this thread is to give the XDA Community a base ROM to work with. I want you all to work together to find and fix bugs and share your knowledge here in this thread so that you can all help get this rom across the finish line. I feel it's the least I can do for all of you who have shown your enthusiasm and support to me. So here it is. I will try to make this OP short and straight to the point.
***You MUST wipe all partitions on your phone AND wipe internal storage before flashing this ROM. So make backups as needed. There are data folders from previous ROM's that MUST be deleted from your internal storage AND your SD card. Make sure you delete the "Android" folder in both locations before flashing this ROM! Failure to do this will result in isues with the ROM. You also need to make a complete backup of any stock Note 4 ROM including the modem and EFS using the latest Note 4 firmware and stock Note 4 ROM which you can find here in the development forum. (kevintm78 has a stockish Note 4 ROM that will serve this purpose). Again, backup EVERYTHING using the backup feature in TWRP and include EFS.***
I'm not going to break down the necessary steps for unlocking your bootloader and flashing a custom recovery. I expect you all should know how to do this before attempting to flash ROM's anyway. This ROM is 100% stock including 99% of the original Verizon bloat apps. The ROM is based off of the Verizon Note 7 N930VVRS2APHE software as well as the Verizon Note 4 firmware, libs and modules as necessary. It includes FlashPoint V4 kernel by kevintm78. So expect a stock ROM experience and expect minor bugs that can be sorted out easy enough with libs, apk's and simple xml edits here and there. You'll need to search around here at XDA for information, tips and files that will help you fix bugs. Upon flashing this ROM you may not be able to receive text messages. If this happens you will need to flash the FlashPoint V3 kernel for Note 7 port ROM's. You can find the FlashPoint Note 4 kernels here at XDA. This was reported to fix that bug. Pay attention and download the correct kernel version for this port ROM. Other than that, you all will need to get together and start figuring out the minor bugs and share your findings here so others can make the necessary adjustments to the ROM.
The person who shows the most activity and interest as well as his/her contribution to this ROM will be made contributor so that he or she can edit this ROM thread, add fixes, etc. I will be watching this thread from time to time and can offer some assistance, advice and knowledge from time to time. You can PM me, but only if you can't find answers here in this thread or elsewhere on XDA.
Donations are not mandatory but are very much appreciated! I spent a LOT of time putting this ROM together for you all to enjoy. Use the donate link next to my avatar in any of my posts. Please share your feedback and bug solutions about the ROM so we can get the ROM updated as you guys find fixes. Post in this thread and above anything else, please keep this thread respectful and please don't be rude or hateful to others. Everyone has something to offer and this is why I want you all to have this ROM to work with on your free time. Have fun and share knowledge as I have done!

Thanks for making this available to all!:good:
For all those wondering, this is the same ROM from the previous thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/rom-coming-soon-t3746380
I don't have the skills yet to help with maintaining the ROM, but I can sure test it and provide feedback.
Thanks again for all who help on this:highfive:
I've installed this rom and played with it for a some time now.
Upon initial installation, the phone dialer would freeze after one use, requiring a reboot and text messaging would not work. Both of those issues where resolved with the OP suggestion of the kernel change. I used the v3.1 for port and root successfully.
I put in most of the apps I use and all seem to run fine. Admittedly, I really don't use anything exotic in the app department. Email, file explorer, maps, nova launcher, sports apps, trip advisor type stuff. All run great.
This rom really is very nice.
The real issue for me is VoLTE. While the settings suggest Advanced Calling features are activated, they in fact do not work. As most of you know, this is typical in custom roms. I spent 50-100 hours (no joke) trying to find a simple solution, as I do not possess developer skills, and came up dry. I really wanted to use this rom as my daily driver, but this is a deal breaker for me due to personal hearing issues. For this reason I am moving on to try other things on this phone, which is a spare/hobby unit.
I will keep a backup copy of this rom on my sd card and would be willing to test something out if someone needs a tester. Should someone indeed get VoLTE working on this rom, I would enthusiastically run it as my daily driver. Good luck.
I'm just going to grab a post here at the beginning of the thread so I can update it later on.
good job!!
you do very well. I hope to be able to use it soon. I think Note 8 is also a good idea

The Note 8 and S8 runs Android 7.0 Nougat. Without a Nougat compatible kernel, we can't port either of these softwares from the N8 or S8. The Note 4 was only updated to Android 6.0 Marshmallow. However there are some ported apps from these devices that can be used. This is what people need to test with this ROM.
After minor hiccup with 2 step varificarion due to texts not arriving (fix in OP), I am very excited about this new DD. Besides the obvious issue with fingerprint, I'm not seeing any major bugs. Other than perhaps a DPI issue with dialer (could be caused by battery saving) I'll update
Update1: GPS boked. Not sure if it's from something I did or if it's a bug. I will look at it again when I have time to test
On the kernel side I had to switch from MPdecision to MSMhotplug to have some of my cores go offline. I'll update
As for battery/wakelocks I'll update when I get some reliable data.
Thank you immensely to you and the rest of the devs still supporting this device. I'll be sending donations to all.

I have decided to release my Verizon Note 7 port ROM for the public so that those of you wanting the best software features available for your Note 4, can have a good ROM base to work with. This ROM is not 100% finished but it is working for the most part. Calls, texts, wifi, bluetooth, etc is all working as far as I know. The purpose of this ROM and this thread is to give the XDA Community a base ROM to work with. I want you all to work together to find and fix bugs and share your knowledge here in this thread so that you can all help get this rom across the finish line. I feel it's the least I can do for all of you who have shown your enthusiasm and support to me. So here it is. I will try to make this OP short and straight to the point.
***You MUST wipe all partitions on your phone AND wipe internal storage before flashing this ROM. So make backups as needed. There are data folders from previous ROM's that MUST be deleted from your internal storage AND your SD card. Make sure you delete the "Android" folder in both locations before flashing this ROM! Failure to do this will result in isues with the ROM. You also need to make a complete backup of any stock Note 4 ROM including the modem and EFS using the latest Note 4 firmware and stock Note 4 ROM which you can find here in the development forum. (kevintm78 has a stockish Note 4 ROM that will serve this purpose). Again, backup EVERYTHING using the backup feature in TWRP and include EFS.***
I'm not going to break down the necessary steps for unlocking your bootloader and flashing a custom recovery. I expect you all should know how to do this before attempting to flash ROM's anyway. This ROM is 100% stock including 99% of the original Verizon bloat apps. The ROM is based off of the Verizon Note 7 N930VVRS2APHE software as well as the Verizon Note 4 firmware, libs and modules as necessary. It includes FlashPoint V4 kernel by kevintm78. So expect a stock ROM experience and expect minor bugs that can be sorted out easy enough with libs, apk's and simple xml edits here and there. You'll need to search around here at XDA for information, tips and files that will help you fix bugs. Upon flashing this ROM you may not be able to receive text messages. If this happens you will need to flash the FlashPoint V3 kernel for Note 7 port ROM's. You can find the FlashPoint Note 4 kernels here at XDA. This was reported to fix that bug. Pay attention and download the correct kernel version for this port ROM. Other than that, you all will need to get together and start figuring out the minor bugs and share your findings here so others can make the necessary adjustments to the ROM.
The person who shows the most activity and interest as well as his/her contribution to this ROM will be made contributor so that he or she can edit this ROM thread, add fixes, etc. I will be watching this thread from time to time and can offer some assistance, advice and knowledge from time to time. You can PM me, but only if you can't find answers here in this thread or elsewhere on XDA.
Donations are not mandatory but are very much appreciated! I spent a LOT of time putting this ROM together for you all to enjoy. Use the donate link next to my avatar in any of my posts. Please share your feedback and bug solutions about the ROM so we can get the ROM updated as you guys find fixes. Post in this thread and above anything else, please keep this thread respectful and please don't be rude or hateful to others. Everyone has something to offer and this is why I want you all to have this ROM to work with on your free time. Have fun and share knowledge as I have done!

To fix the Bluetooth grab the Bluetooth file from system/lib/hw from a Rom that works and place it using root explorer. In the same area and change permissions and reboot. Same with GPS it will fix.

So I broke the glass on my S9 and had to pull out the J7. I went looking for a ROM and KERNEL and all the links were dead. So I figured I'd link my old ROM library in case someone gets into the same situation.
Its 6 of the ROMS, My Kernel and some other relevant stuff, most of which credit goes to whoever made it.

Sweet!
I just now finally managed to get a new phone but still have my 2015 J700T around for a backup. I never rooted it since my last phone before it had stopped working just days after getting the J7; once root methods came out, I didn't want to risk it having no backup lol. I'd love to do something with it now.
I noticed the links were dead and was bummed. This is great, thank you!
Thank you @mr.duck254 very much I was just looking for the roms, and the links down , you saved my day !! Thank you!!
@mr.duck254 Do you have the source for Duck kernel?
thanks
