Your two links don't point to any custom roms. Only 2 seperate ways of rooting the P905 device. His device was the P900, however dev'ing for this device is at a slow start, but it will be here sooner than you think. ;)
Currently running a custom kernel and custom rom at this time. Bloatless, Fast, Ad Free, And truly showing what the octacore processor can really do. ;)

Developers don't need no stinkin' signature!

It's difficult... i think the most devs won't buy a tablet like this... so not much developement.
And as a dev, if you want more credit, you need to develop on devices that are sucessful and the note PRO isn't so sucessful. (Price, size and there are better devices for that price.)
I tryed compiling a custom kernel, but to many bugs. (Wi-fi, camera...)
Building a rom without devs is hardly possible.
And without any base rom, (cm-based, aosp...) its also difficult to port roms and mods...(look, we havent not even a working recovery, and its only for one model, FULL of bugs.)
Sorry for bad english :)

I'd appreciate stock rom in form flashable with custom recovery (TWRP, CWM), much easier to debloat...

Saying, just in case :)

I was able to make a flashable zip of the ANC5 firmware, partially debloated, rooted and zipaligned. I can also make it deodexed if needed. Still have to go through a debloat list to get everything I can removed. I used ArchiKitchen. Worked really well. The zip is around 1.5gb currently.

Also able to compile a custom kernel.

Yes, deodexing and rooting is just a plus, what I need is CWM / TWRP flashable zip, because this kind of file is easy to debloat... So, the answer is yes with a plus ;)

Okay I can do that. I need to know what the kernel path is for your device. Using a file manager browse to /dev/block/platform/SOME FOLDER/by-name/boot
I need to know what the SOME FOLDER is.

This is awesome. Interested to see the debloat list you come up with. Wish I could get into this too but it sounds like a potential time sink for me, LOL.

Not that I have ever seen. I have had a P900 since the day it was released and rooted since day 3 and am always on these boards.

Not to be "That guy" but it clearly states at the top of this forum that no questions should be posted in this fourm. You may want to ask a mod to move this to the Q&A section or it may get locked. It may go unnoticed except for the [Q] in the title. Again, no biggie to me but don't want to see you have this thread locked as it is a really qood question.

Oh sorry, I asked the administrator to move it to the right forum.

    the "sm-p900" was later added at the end of the sentence from the OP. When I answered, the "SM-P900" was not there.
