We have been informed about the Android 7 Nougat ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 android phone. This ROM is based on AOSP which means there is no Samsung TouchWiz user interface. This is great for those who are looking for vanilla experience on their android phone. Substratum is fully compatible.
Keep in mind that the first boot will take some time and it might even loop for few times. Just make sure not to use any custom kernel with this Android 7 Nougat ROM.
Keep in mind that there is no default music player onboard so use something like blackplayer, folder player or musixmatch.
Instructions for flashing:
– Download ROM and GApps.
– Copy ROM and GApps to internal storage.
– Wipe /data, /system and /cache.
– Flash ROM and GApps (And any mods you use)
– Enjoy 😛
Instructions for update:
– Download ROM and GApps.
– Copy ROM and GApps to internal storage.
– Flash ROM and GApps
Everything is working out of box and there are no known bugs. This makes this Android 7 Nougat ROM excellent for everyday use. This is the best Nougat ROM.
