Hello everyone,

I am creating this thread on behalf of @RaymanFX , a recognized developer who needs a device(Galaxy Note 4 Exynos) to develop for us.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3463426
https://github.com/raymanfx

He is looking to develop for Note 4 Exynos (All Variants N910C N910U N910H etc), and is looking to make Cyanogenmod 12 roms and kernels for us. He is an recognized developer here at XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3463426
He is very committed to getting this device and developing for us so let's get him this device. He needs at least 639 Euros to buy the device, so please consider donating any value , even 1 dollar for an debugging/dev device he can work on. He had succeeded to port Cyanogenmod 12 to Galaxy note 10 2014 Exynos Tablet as seen here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-2014/general/android-5-0-offical-cm-support-t2938652

because nobody cares to donate to some guy who may or may not port some crappy rom to our note 4s.
seriously who cares about cyanogenmod ? lollipop vanilla is far better and supported.
also you lose most of the notes functionality by rooting. knox goes, your dual personality phone becomes a single personality phone, you lose warranty permanently and you dont gain anything which you would not have already.
go buy a nexus 6 if you want a rooted/cyanogenmodded phone.

I don't agree cyanogenmod is a crap. Has a lot of fans out there and bring us the latest android build always. You are being rude with your words. If you are not interested just leave the thread

 

[ramon2111]

Would it work on the SM-N910U variant??? If yes, where do I donate ??

 

[ar216893]

another thread ?

why you make another thread to discuss same thing..
I notice you are also OP of this thread
What makes me don't like CM is it's rarely made it through the stable build for past device I use. I'm definitely don't want to use experimental ROM in my precious device. Just my opinion.

 

[calj17]

Donate via PayPal to get Cyanogenmod 12 on our devices

I will invite the developer to join the thread. His build is Very good for the note 10.1 2014 exynos and if he build for note 4 will also be very nice

I'm willing to help with something like 20$ but the Note was expensive as it was. I agree with people that AOSP > CM though.

Also, be careful, I'm pretty sure paid ROMs/kernels/etc are banned on xda and this might be considered as such.

I want to donate 20 too. In this case we are not paying the rom. We are buying 1 developer unit of the note 4 só that he can work

Hey, so I thought I'd join in here as well.

What calj17 said is actually true. What you are 'paying' for is not my work, nor anything I craft/code, but rather the tool for me to do my work. I am providing development for free of course, it's just that I'm a university student and obviously cannot afford to buy a Galaxy Note 4 myself.
I'm not asking for donations either. I was asked by people to work on Exynos based devices since there's little to no development activity going on for these. I can tell that by now, my Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 (Exynos5420) runs stable enough to be considered a daily driver, with basic S-Pen features working (palm rejection, special pen buttons, etc.), so I'm convinced I could do the same on the Galaxy Note 4.
However, there are people that still like Touchwiz better for its superior features (especially S-Pen specific ones) that a custom ROM will never be able to achieve and I don't blame these people. I myself (obviously) prefer faster custom ROMs over a stock one, but to each their own is the correct agenda here I'd say.
It's just up to the decision if there are enough people in this community who think alike and would be willing do donate a few pennies. Here's the donation thread of the Galaxy Note 10.1 by the way: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-2014/general/android-5-0-offical-cm-support-t2938652.
You can see it was successful and it all went along pretty well. The community got exactly what it donated for (a usable CM-12.0 build) and I'm still working on the device every day (my recent contributions include making the aosp exynos5 drivers (used by the Nexus 10) fully usable on non-aosp devices - commits are here: http://review.teameos.org/#/q/status:merged).

Again, it's up to this community.
I'm in no urge to do anything on the Note 4. But I like what I do and I consider developing on android a healthy hobby for my university classes, so I will happily aid people to be able to run whatever they want on their devices if I am given the device to work on. Of course, You could get whatever ROM you want with a solid base. If people rather wish for a stable AOSP ROM instead of CM; no problem. From there on, other people can take the device bits and easily build AOKP/Slim/Omni/whatever you have in mind

EDIT: like the Galaxy Note 10.1 thread, I think this one rather belongs in the general section instead of Q&A.

 

[calj17]

[calj17]

I am also posting at Facebook note 4 comunities and Google plus asking more People to join the thread. Help of all here is apreciated to share the idea with other users

 

[invisiblesushi]

Would it work on the SM-N910U variant??? If yes, where do I donate ??

The N910U uses Intel XMM7260 modem, and the N910C uses Ericsson Thor M7450. Only difference between those two models is the modem.
Cellular and mobile data might not work, but someone might make an port for N910U, since the hardware is quite similar.

 

[AndreiLux]

You should wait until the S6 as the platform will be more common and chances of somebody caring to port AOSP will grow.

At this point lollipop is just a few weeks away on stock.

Just my opinion.

 

[calj17]

The question is not Just getting lollipop. Is using pure android with the fast performance and lag free UI. Have a second option of rom free of bloatware and runing always the Last android build. At some point samsung will stop releasing new updates for note 4 exynos and we get stuck at the android version samsung want to offer us. Developers can GO on and offer us android 6.0, 7.0 etc as Google release them and we won't have to wait for samsung to release this for us
