Database Develop

Cyanogenmod on the note 4 snapdragon

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

Wrong forum my man. Please take your thread to the right place. Facepalm

"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.

Note 5 moaning ehhh! Just port 5 to 4!

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

Knox is a security show stopper for me.

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???

Any hope of ONE UI 2.0 port ?

since we're not getting the android 10 update, is it even possible to port one ui 2 to note 8? sorry if it's a stupid question.

Yes, basically everything is possible to port with enough work. I'm sure we will see a oneui 2 port in a few months.

And don't forget enough support. People usually only want the port without donating to the Dev and that's bad if he's doing decent job.

Custom ROM/Developer?

Hi guys! Just want to ask regarding custom ROM developer for our device as I noticed that there is only one developer that is working as of now. And based on his thread his not willing to work with anyone.
My question is any chance that there for other developer to work on our device? Coming from my previous device(mia1) lineage is well supported, little bit worried plus this is also my first time using miui and I'm not impressed. But hardware is top notch plus no moving parts ,this is a good device.
This question is just query without any demand to anyone. Thank you.

I'm using Pixel Experience GSI bro, and straight up not having a good time, but still better than miui (it's my personal taste). At this point, consider how this device had been out, i dont think we see any official roms any time soon

Unfortunately, the smartphone doesn't get the attention it deserves. But hope dies last.

Why not try the Lineage ROM? We're very lucky to have an active dev working on it!
Saying that I would love to see a Pixel ROM at some point, but I'm not complaining...

Yes you're right. I think mi 9 lite is superior than mi 9 se(small battery) and mi9t(moving front camera. Only downside is the processor,but you will not notice the difference in day to day task. Hopefully some devs will notice our device as this one should be the mia3. If @Flex can help us,that will be great. No 1 contributor to mia1.

I'm also working on a rom for the device. There sure is a steep learning curve. At the moment, building roms that are based on Android 10 are quite a pain due to the fact that Xiaomi has not released the Android Q kernel source for pyxis. They're still on Pie.

Question One UI

There will be any one UI rom for redmi note 10 pro/max ?

For what?

It can be port but I don't think developers interested in this and it's need a lot of work

Just buy Samsung phone if you like one UI.

I mean there is no chance for the one ui port (at least a stable one), so it's easier to choose something from the Samsung offer - for example A52/A72.

U can never know .. this community has a lot of brilliant devs .. and RN10P is already getting most of the best custom roms .. if we manage to get OOS or OneUI that would be a magnificent
