Awaiting Air Command for MK5 build Galaxy Note 2 N7105

Good day to you all. It has been an exiting few weeks since leeomendes developer at XDA made a MK5 build public. This rom does not require you to flash via Odin and is packaged to work with a custom recovery. Those that did the smart thing by not upgrading with Odin with the official firmware, is very smart. The KNOX is a major problem when dealing with unlocking your phone. Not to mention even to change the binary counter on your phone making it impossible to return back to supplier for fixes. The  Lion Rom Stock.TW 4.3 MK5  that can be found on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537372  can clearly see it is Knox FREE - Rooted & Deodexed. Meaning it has now been made for developers to get there hands dirty and think a way to make the Note 3 features available for the MK5 build.

Since the American 3G models of the Note 2 have already been fortunate enough to have the Note 3 on the handheld. Though I must say myself I'm kinda jealous. I chose the N7105 model because of the fact it supports LTE and it was released at the beginning of the year. So basically it is still a brand new phone. I can understand why developers are slow working on hack and features on the developers sites because it is relatively a new model and that they need time to figure out how the new framework works and to modify it.

the folks with the 3G model, I feel kinda that they should settle with what they have. Us that have the N7105 need some attention. We also want to taste the Note 3 goodness :) . Though some have tested that the new Skynote rom that is originally designed for the 3G models work on the N7105 and by flashing a kernel on top of it makes everything work so far. Yesterday I wanted to test out the theory but sadly, the 1.3GB file download I made got corrupted. Sigh... I was looking forward to see the air command working perfectly on my N7105. Sources can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497994 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239453. Here is the screenshot


Besides the test outs, developers have heard the cries of users can they say that they will have a Mod Pack of the Note 3 soon as they need time to package it for the N7105. Keep fingers crossed guys. 


It would be really great news. Currently I'm running the Lion rom and it works fantastic on my N7105. I have some of the Note 3 apks installed that do work, with some minor errors that I can live with. I would really like to see the air command working on the MK5 build.

Until then guys keep your fingers crossed, and donate to the developers if you can. Without them we would have been stuck with normal Samsung goodies.
