[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dij_333:
[MENTION=5285430]kevintm78[/MENTION], I know I'm far from the first one to say it, but...AMAZING WORK!!! I recently had my N910W8 (100% stock on Straight Talk through AT&T towers) suddenly go down due to the dreaded eMMC issue (didn't know about until it happened to me), and I already knew beyond any shadow of a doubt that I was NOT interested in the memory card/battery restrictions (or the price) involved in updating to something newer. The Note 4 has always been able to meet all my needs, as well as continuing to exceed my expectations, so I wanted to replace it with nothing more and nothing less. The N910W8 had always been the perfect fit for me, right up until a tornado took out the local AT&T tower, and ever since the tower was rebuilt in a different location, I had STRUGGLED to get a decent signal at home if I wasn't standing out in the driveway. Being reluctant to change phones/models/SIMs/towers, and knowing the PITA process involved in the transfer, I continued to tolerate the service issues (was great to avoid spam calls and others you'd rather not answer anyway :laugh:) by relying on the home wifi, right up to the point of the eMMC going to crap. I already knew I needed to go with a Verizon-based replacement for better coverage, and had one lined up to buy locally the next day. After spending a whole day just getting my apps/accounts/settings configured on the stock N910V, I started to realize issue after issue that I'd never had with my W8...I quickly started to realize just how bloated and "locked down" everything was (Hotspot, APNs, WiFi Calling, service menu/dialer codes, etc). At that point, I realized that I needed to make some major changes. I had done rooting, unlocking, and custom ROMs on a few phones in the past (including the GS2 and the GS5)...OF COURSE, with some help from all of you at XDA!!! I never realized how much more of a challenge the Verizon-based phones are (ESPECIALLY the N910V), but leave it to all of you amazing developers and contributors at XDA to figure it all out!!! I have spent the last month researching my butt off (with much trial and error), DETERMINED to install and configure the latest UNLOCKED bootloader, with the BEST stable/reliable/compatible/debloated/lightweight/up-to-date/non-ported ROM, while still remaining feature-rich/capable for both stock AND 3rd-party applications, WITHOUT breaking SafetyNet...YOU, my good sir, have :highfive: NAILED IT :highfive: !!! I've come quite a long way in (nearly) getting everything set up to my liking, and I have done everything in my power to research and rack my brain, trying not trouble anyone with being tasked to answer my random questions along the way, but I've finally hit a point where I should probably ask for some assistance and clarification before I travel down the wrong path with what I am now trying to accomplish. I've done well with everything up to this point, but since this is my ONLY functioning phone for both business and personal, I can't afford to have it go down for very long, and I'm starting to feel like I'm spinning my wheels with where I'm at on it now, and I definitely don't want to end up having to go in reverse! I realize this post (my first ever on XDA) has become ridiculously long (I apologize), as it supplies virtually no help to anyone beyond my testimonial, overall review of MRv11, and a BIG thanks to Kevin, so I will wrap it up here and post the info/questions about my current progress/hold in a follow-up post...

Kevin, YOU'RE THE MAN!!! :cool:
