Great news! Maybe send one last shout to the ones who have said they will donate?

Going to be purchasing a device now, if you guys can still contribute your pledged amounts that would be great. If not, we understand, just let us know.
[Galaxy Note5 General] TheUndertaker21:
Please give me Saturday. I will send 100 dollars then send the 50 dollars one in 2 weeks.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
That's great, a big help and thanks for responding.
[Galaxy Note5 General] TheUndertaker21:
9L693036CE586652L

100 dollars
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
That helps tremendously. apascual89 has sent a device to him today, the donations so far have paid for shipping and once we see how much the fees are going to be and if more people contribute we will send the rest, hopefully enough to pay the fees and give apascual89 close to at least the value of the device.

Edit- [MENTION=4168589]TheUndertaker21[/MENTION] I wouldn't send in another fifty honestly, you have contributed enough. If I can I will add more and hopefully some others chip in.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GOIGIG:
You're a gentleman and a scholar, also will you marry me? Just kidding but really thank you for the help it's very appreciated.
[Galaxy Note5 General] TheUndertaker21:
Yeah, no problem. I just hope to see AOSP on note 5 and get things rolling before the note 6 i'm def moving to the note 6 :D
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
A note 5 is on it's way to [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] . He'll work his magic and have something for the community when he's ready. Exciting times to come.......
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Hopefully. No guarantees but we have several good devs that have made progress with the Exynos.
[Galaxy Note5 General] samitro:
Excellent news, from where to where was it shipped?
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
USA to Germany
[Galaxy Note5 General] samitro:
Oh, there will be import charges of 100 EUR at least. I hope I'm mistaken.
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
Yep. At least that amount.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Exactly. If anyone else is considering contributing to the cost, or those that have pledged and haven't contributed yet please do. Even a few bucks here and there will add up. Currently we have just under 340 USD left.

If those that pledged would donate the amounts they offered we would have approximately 185 more. That would go a long ways.
[Galaxy Note5 General] B!GBOY:
if the price is more than 350€ it would be 19% tax if i'm not Mistaken and the person getting the package can accept it and pay the money or send it back (i think).

from here:

http://www.apfeltalk.de/community/t...mport-aus-den-usa-einfuhr-zoll-kosten.128286/

edit: there are some other laws regarding sending ''Gifts'', it would be cheaper but i didn't understand it completely

here is the link:

[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
I have no idea about customs taxes but surely this is a gift - we are not selling it to him. We have clubbed together to give it to him. He owes us nothing and we can't ask for it back. That is a gift. The fact that we might benefit from him having it is irrelevant. It's like a family buying a present.
[Galaxy Note5 General] gr33nd3vil:
delete.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
Lol and where is that build because as we know there is not any working build nor dev with a cm build or anything that has to do with cm lol....is not even possible as of now but thanks to [MENTION=3515982]apascual89[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] we might get cm on note 5 and for sure i believe in [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] look at his work from note 4 exynos xd
[Galaxy Note5 General] gr33nd3vil:
Um what build for the note 5 are you asking for?

There's sprint and some others I'll get a link in a sec making supper quick

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

Nevermind I took hlte as the Note 5, and just looked it was the Note 3. I do apologize & will remove my prior comment.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
Dont worry its ok but back to topic
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
I can't say how fees work in Germany to know either way, I assume RaymanFX knows the best way to go about it. I just hope it's not real expensive if it has to be paid for.

I realize not everyone can afford to contribute and can't expect everyone to, but honestly I bet more people will download it if it gets running and complain about something then the amount of people that made it happen. I am currently working in our families construction company that is in a restructure stage, I might work once or twice a week right now and only contributed $10 but it's something, I'll do more if/when I can. I feel others should as well, if they plan on running it or plan on running it on future Samsung chips, this only helps.
[Galaxy Note5 General] samitro:
Unfortunately in Europe, tax must be paid even for gifts above 45 EUR but there is a chance that it will go through without tax if they don't identify it as a mobile. Fingers crossed.
[Galaxy Note5 General] TheUndertaker21:
How are you guys doing? The thread been super quiet lately? people should continue donate specially with that tax money lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Doing good, [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] got the device the other day and has started tinkering. Donations would be nice for them guys, I sent $70 to cover shipping then once he received it sent another $320. RaymanFX had to pay close to $100 in fees, I forgot the exact conversion amount but around that. So as it is right now, apascual89 sold his note for $320 and RaymanFX paid approximately $100 from his pocket for fees, there's 10-15 bucks left in PayPal, if more comes in it will be split between them.
[Galaxy Note5 General] bala_gamer:
Thats good news, when did he got the device ?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Last Thursday I believe it was.
[Galaxy Note5 General] M7ammad.eb:
Willike he make any testing thread?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
That's up to him, I don't know.
[Galaxy Note5 General] vakenT:
Does this mean hes starting to make it?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
Let's get back on topic guys. We still need to settle the donation part because extra fees were involved and full pay was not done.

Transaction ID:7WV068192J719671M

Here's some more. More will come soon to cover fees and such.
[Galaxy Note5 General] r3xx3r:
How much money was spent that wasn't part of the donations?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Donations equaled roughly 400 or so after PayPal fees, I work in construction and am currently on an excavator but I'll get exacts when I get home. 70$ went to shipping, $320 went to apascual89 and RaymanFX paid around $100 in fees. That's roughly $500 spent. Would like to at least, in part cover the fees for RaymanFX and give a bit more to apascual89. We give what we can and hope for the best.
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
I'll put in another $20 later today
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Jammol put in another $10. I'll update main page this evening, to difficult on mobile with the formatting.
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
Thanks for keeping up with all this.

For everyone, please remember that a little while ago there was no hope for CM on the Note 5. The fact that raymanfx has one now still doesn't guarantee anything but it gives us the hope that at least someone that knows they're stuff is working on it. Just have a little more patience and rest assured that if/when there's something to flash/test you guys here will probably be the first to hear.

[MENTION=1479665]Ducter[/MENTION] feel free to drop the hammer on me if I spoke out of line!
[Galaxy Note5 General] RaymanFX:
Just so you guys can keep track with my progress:

The device trees are up at CM and I'm actively working on them: https://github.com/CyanogenMod?utf8=✓&query=noble.

You can watch my WIP patches on gerrit here: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/owner:raymanfx%40gmail.com.

I'm working on the most important part right now, the source patches so we can compile all of the hardware libs inline (instead of using prebuilt blobs for display/omx).

Last but not least, a huge shoutout to [MENTION=3515982]apascual89[/MENTION] for going through the painful process of shipping the package to the other end of the world (which apparently still isn't an easy thing to do in 2016) and willing to donate the device in the first place!
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
Now I know where you live, which was my master plan from the beginning. See you soon.......

I say that in the most un-creepy way possible.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
Secret assassin sent by Samsung!!!!!![emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji33] [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
$406.11 amount received after PayPal fees.

$70 in shipping

$320 paid for device, that's where the current donations have went to date.

If those that had pledged actually donated, would have about $200 more, covering the import fees and another 100 for the device. If others contribute still, that's where it will go. Pretty cool of those that donated. Money is the one thing that can divide people, in this case it's hopefully building a stronger community around the note 5.
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Further $20 sent

[Galaxy Note5 General] benyben123:
U R AWESOME!!! Not even a note owner, saw this, and had to say kudos on the selflessness :good:
[Galaxy Note5 General] weavr:
Hopefully I can contribute more soon. I just had to put down a security deposit and fees for a new apartment but once things settle down, I should be able to kick in some more.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Sounds like an exciting time, hopefully it's all good and you get settled in quickly. Moving is a pain. I am always amazed at the amount of crap my wife and kids accumulate over time, been nine years since our last move and don't plain on moving again till I can get a large piece of land away from everybody, house is optional so long as it has a garage lol.
[Galaxy Note5 General] weavr:
Thanks! I really don't like moving...this will be my 4th apartment in 4 years :mad:

Anyways back to CM...any word on if the Sprint variant (nobleltespr) would be supported?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Was my initial understanding that it would be, RaymanFX would need to clarify tho.
[Galaxy Note5 General] weavr:
Sounds good! Didn't want to bug him with that this early in the game while he is just trying to get things off the ground.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GOIGIG:
It's very well worth it =)) I'll throw in another 20 Friday
[Galaxy Note5 General] TeamHackura:
Forgot to donate. I'm in for $10. Would donate more but just got got with $50,000 bill for rabies shots.

Who do I send to?

Side note: any chance of split screen on CM? Use it everyday
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Send [MENTION=1479665]Ducter[/MENTION] details in his post around post 160 in this thread.
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
There's multi window, but it's definitely not as polished as Samsung's implementation
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Sorry for the off topic but that's interesting as I've never found a use for it. What do you use it for?
[Galaxy Note5 General] TeamHackura:
texting, browsing, YouTube
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Interstitial, ta. I always just found the screen a bit small to be comfortable for split screen
[Galaxy Note5 General] apascual89:
It works, just have to figure out and get used to work it. This screenshot is on a Nexus 6p btw
[Galaxy Note5 General] TeamHackura:
Sweet!
[Galaxy Note5 General] :
[MENTION=1479665]Ducter[/MENTION] Sent a small donation your way (8GM395928G549734K). Hope it helps out.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Yes, it will very much. We all thank you.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GOIGIG:
Thank you so much you are greatly appreciated
[Galaxy Note5 General] abax44:
I think the fact he needed a rabies shot and that it cost $50k is far more interesting. [emoji1]
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
I did wonder - that is one big dog.
[Galaxy Note5 General] zekurosu:
can i propose that [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] open up a thread in Android Development section?

from there we can track the progress appropriately..

not forcing him in any kind, just a mere suggestion.
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Good idea. When / if he's ready and has anything to show! No point before then really.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
Its better to leave status on the links he share from cyanogen thats the appropiate way to go he should not open anything we dont want same thing as the s6 forums [my opinion]
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
What happened on s6 forums?
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
Asking etas and bothering the devs with silly questions....off topic.....on topic
[Galaxy Note5 General] GOIGIG:
Noobs so many many Noobs blowing up the forum who didn't read the OP At all and kept repeating the same things over and over
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Even in an Original Android Development thread? Sheesh that's bad.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
Lol. Yeah, even in an original. UITA deals with it on a daily basis in his kernel thread thats in the original section.
[Galaxy Note5 General] TeamHackura:

Note much but what I can do right now.
[Galaxy Note5 General] tnmiraq:
How much the remaining amount ?? And can i donate ??
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
At this point the phones been shipped and received. RaymanFX has dove right in with starting development, donations that come in now get split between the two to finish paying for the device and reimburse for import fees.

Anyone can contribute, if you want to contribute just hit the donate to me under my name or in my profile, we appreciate any and all contributions
[Galaxy Note5 General] Paninno12:
I'd love to see Cyanogenmod on my Note 5.

Here is a small contribution (8V597049WK712792T).

Good luck man!
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
I am not at liberty to say much about the work RaymanFX is doing with the note 5 but he is working on it, he is making some ground. I just wanted to reassure those that donated, works being done. Let's not ask questions about it because there are no answers to be given yet, just be assured that he is trying.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ather:
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/owner:raymanfx%40gmail.com to watch his progress
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ogy77:
Nice news!!!
[Galaxy Note5 General] apd:
Thanks. I would hope that no one who donated did so with any idea that they had a right to a result or even detailed updates as to what he is doing. We donated as a means to an end - to try and help the port to the Note 5.
[Galaxy Note5 General] yoramweil:
Donated 20$. Good luck!
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Just to clarify, you didn't send 20 to me. Where money is involved I just want to keep it transparent.
[Galaxy Note5 General] yoramweil:
Donated directly to RaymanFx. I might have misunderstood the pathway....
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Not a problem, just wanted to keep it clear so no questions arise from anyone at a later point, not saying any would but transparency is always best.
[Galaxy Note5 General] abax44:
Done yet?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Not real sure if you are asking about the fund raiser to get the device and ship it or if you are referring to a release. I'll go with the first, device has been delivered and received, work has begun. If you would like to still contribute, feel free. At this point, where the pooling of funds has stopped you can send directly to RaymanFX to help cover his fees or apascual89 to give him a bit more for sending his device. I'll be glad to continue accepting donations and splitting them up as well, if that's a route you or anyone wants to go.
[Galaxy Note5 General] RaymanFX:
Sooo, time for a first status update:

Broken at this time are camera and call audio.

Everything else pretty much works, but with a few constraints.

Hardware decoders/encoders don't work at all right now, which means we have to rely on FFMPEG and Google software codecs for video playback and encoding. You won't notice much of this unless you watch movies for a few hours straight, software codecs consume much more energy (obviously) than hardware ones.

Hardware overlays don't work either. You'll notice some little lags here and there, and that's because all the UI composing/rendering is done by the CPU backed framebuffer or the GPU right now (instead of proper hardware overlays).

Fingerprint is completely unsupported. Please don't even ask for it before we fix up the OSS mobicore stack.

The other hardware bits (BT, NFC, audio playback and recording, etc) work rather well at this point.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GOIGIG:
What I'm reading right here is great news, thank you for your hard work we greatly appreciate it, every step is miles in my book =>
[Galaxy Note5 General] TheUndertaker21:
Sounds like an amazing progress just a few days.

Keep on the good work dude.

Thanks for everything. Almost time to ditch touch whiz lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
That guy is in beast mode. I've been following his progress.....all I can say is wow!!!
[Galaxy Note5 General] cewrld:
Great news. Bugs/todos seem same with s6. Eventough there are bugs, I hope we can see test builds soon.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MagnumPOS:
Are we gonna have cyanogenmod on 920p sprint n5? Is it gonna work on that carrier?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
That's not even a focus at the moment. Please let him do his work and once a build is done, then we can face all those issues.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
He wont share until who knows when so f...i keep on trying to build from source but dosnt compile
[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
There's nothing to share, it's not ready yet. Just let him do his thing and then everyone can join in on the fun after.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
I know xd
[Galaxy Note5 General] travperk:
%100 thousand percent!

Dearest ßrother Raymondfx!! i respect your work here and am extremely excited about your updates!! Keep on truckin, and hopefully we will get to the promised land!!!

Thank you again ßrother RaymondfX and evryone who was apart of the process sincerely

i expect nothing from my donation but only want to give my absolute encouragement ::angel:
[Galaxy Note5 General] RaymanFX:
So it looks like we kind of hit a wall here regarding call audio.

The audio routes are being setup properly right now, and media output/input works too, just incall audio doesn't.

It appears that every N920C ROM, when flashed on a N920T (the variant I have) has broken call audio and the only 'fix' is to flash a boot image from a N920T ROM. However, we only have M kernel sources for the N920C right now, which is what I'm working off currently.

That means that I probably cannot fix the incall audio issues unless Samsung releases Marshmallow kernel sources for the N920T as well.

You can see all their source releases here: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=n920.

If you want to help, write a bunch of email asking them for the N920T M kernel sources (there should be no reasons for them not to publish those, as the N920C sources have been online for a while now).
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
Email sent...i think i picked right info
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ather:
That's because N920C is the only variant with lollipop, there is a leaked beta out for Tmobile but thats 6.0, guess we'll have to wait
[Galaxy Note5 General] TeamHackura:
Sending email now
[Galaxy Note5 General] rosco77:
Email sent. I hope everyone else in here jumps in and helps with this. I don't have any experience with requesting source codes. Anyone else here know how stubborn or slow they might be about releasing the kernel source?
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
We need lots of emails to actually still get kernel osrc thats what sammy wants even with opensource they take time but will be worth it.........but this seriously got me do they know if or when from where the email is being sent???? [MENTION=4613660]Jammol[/MENTION] [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
Requesting this post be cleaned up again. It's OK for general talk about where things are, no need for arguing etc. RayManFX posts updates here basically for those that have contributed or been following this thread, I am sure when he gets ready to release something on a large scale he will start a thread for it, for now, it's easier to just post here. Let's keep it clean and civil.
[Galaxy Note5 General] TeamHackura:
Yes, please just stop if it's not dev our donation related
[Galaxy Note5 General] TEKHD:
Thread Cleaned...

Post Respectfully, be kind... or do not post, pretty easy...

Posting in a personal way towards another usually is misunderstood thus, is not acceptable behavior in XDA ... What is good behavior is to provide the simple solution and move on without the personal commentaries...

Keep that in mind... Remember, we are here to help each other to improve out phone experience, not ridicule others.

[Galaxy Note5 General] Jammol:
Yessssss ssiiiiirrrrrr.:angel:
[Galaxy Note5 General] cewrld:
I thought you were getting N920C International version.

This is kind of sad because you were all my hope, sent the e-mail, I hope we can get sources soon.

But we can always test on N920C if there is a change.
[Galaxy Note5 General] JonathanRAZ:
It will work i bet on all devices
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ducter:
That was the goal, to purchase the C version. At the time they were going for about the amount we had in pledges so I started accepting them, $225 iirc never came in, I asked several times and sent several pm's that went unanswered. [MENTION=3515982]apascual89[/MENTION] graciously offered to sell his brand new N920T version for whatever we could send his way, he got it unlocked and sent it. I'll let [MENTION=3463426]RaymanFX[/MENTION] reply in regards to the C version, what he has may work, or not, no way to test and I can't speak for him.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Rx8Driver:
Sammy just angers me. All the money we pay for these devices and they can't be bothered to release code, update in reasonable time frames, or in the absolute TRAGEDY of the S7, even leave the bootloader unlocked smh i love my 920T in a way that I've loved few devices in my time, and it just hurt my heart to hear it's likely going to be the last dev friendly device in the note line smh a sad sad day for android enthusiasts...might be time to leave sammy after all :(
[Galaxy Note5 General] TheUndertaker21:
I bought a nexus 6p just because I want AOSP. I'll buy a note 6 too because I know it will use SD820 but yeah no more exynos device for me. I'll never in my life buy another one. I was happy to contribute to this fundraiser but unfortunately, by September my note 5 will be sold.
[Galaxy Note5 General] darkmanz:
According to the latest news Samsung is locking the bootloader of the snapdragon variant of the s7 for good since it's not the international version and they only sell it in the us where most carriers lockdown their mobiles bootloaders anyway and even if they found a workaround this time it'll be harder for the note 6 I believe

Why is Samsung trying to get people not to buy their phones?
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
Because the root fan base is actually a huge minority.

And it's actually to secure the device even more with Knox as well. With Samsung pay and all that, it needs to be secure as possible. I'm sure one way or another they will allow it with root (the xda community) it's just a matter of time. If they lock the bootloader. It's another layer of defense.
