I take no credit for this just thought it would be helpful to stimulate some development for the T mobile Galaxy note.
Id like to thank the DEV's over at AOCP for allowing me to do this write up and use of cross links. they are found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773229 as well as tomin.fhl for some insite as well as files he is found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837907
Again i am not a DEV and just wanted to do a write up to show it is possible.
What you will need
*ATT Galaxy Note SGH-I717 TWRP http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/96
*AOCP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773229
* TMobile Modem https://www.onlinefilefolder.com/3sO3MvY67FK1gR
* ICS Gapps http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
INSTRUCTONS:
1) Install the ATT version of TWRP to your tmobile note. Follow the instructions in the link to install.
2) Create a back up of your current rom which utilizes Tmobiles BOOT.IMG (Note without this back up you will have to get into Download mode and flash boot.img through odin. The file for this is here https://www.onlinefilefolder.com/3sKTF2WTt5njq0 thanks to tomin.fhl for the link.
3) Place files on phone ROM,Gapps,TMobile modem on sd card ( internal sd perferred)
4) Clear everything system, factory reset, cache (note dont clear sd card or you will lose files on your *SD YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED*
5) Flash AOCP 2.1 which is the Icecream Sandwhich build *NOT THE JELLYBEAN BUILD* after flash is finished return to home menu of TWRP
6) From TWRP menu select restore and select the rom with the tmobile boot.img ( now when asked to restore make sure that the only box checked is the BOOT box( if you restore completely you will end up with the ROM you backed up origanlly.
7) Once the boot.img is restored, flash the tmobile modem/radio this will allow you to use data ect. on the rom.
8) Flash the ICS Gapps to allow access to android market
9) Now reboot phone. (note: there is no boot animation. instead there will be just a black screen. Dont freak out and have patience and the Rom will boot up.
CONCLUSION:
what you end up with is a very stable barebones version of stock android ICS with no bloat
*Known Issues*
External Sd is not found for some reason

No problem I would love to build from scratch simply don't have the coding knowledge. That's what's great about Android someone with little experience can try to do something and learn so much in the process. Again the original devs at AOCP are the ones who deserve all credit and even donations maybe we can convince some devs to port to our notes and really get the ball rolling

Never say never.
In open source android so many times I've seen "won't never happen"
But then of dose.
Where there is a will there's a way.
If some one had asked last week could they get AoCP T-Mobile note. I would have replyed "I don't have that device so I don't intend on building for it, and have no time to do a blind port" and then it would have been stated "the devs said they got no plans to make it happen ever"
But look at this here.

I think most ICS ROMs will work, just remember to flash the T-Mobile kernel (the boot.img, also, the T-Mo radio files if the ROM includes AT&T radio) over the top or else it won't boot.
been using this rom since it was posted yesterday. so far no problems at all.
super fast and sexy. no bloat.
only thing missing of course is WIFI-CALLING but that's to be expected since it's an ATT rom.
only other thing is TMO visual voice mail which can be had from the market anyways.
excellent slimmed down rom, thanks again for posting this! :victory:
Forgot to mention that the response time is incredible. I use my phablet with Sketchbook mobile and Sketchbook pro and Sketchbook mobile is blazing. Sketchbook pro is a little slow but that's probably a hwa issue. I use that one mainly on my regular sized tablet.
Loving it.

Has anyone else been having data network issues with Paranoid Android v1.4? My phone would drop data and only reconnect if I rebooted (most times, ). Thought it might be the radio, no change. So I flashed Spazedog ICS and everything seems to be back to normal.

Hey everyone!
I've had plenty of Android phones through out the years. But recently i had the Iphone 4s. But after 3 months I was so sick of it. So today, i went and bought myself a SGN, and i love it! Have been playing around with it for 1-2 hours now.
I just rooted it via a youtube-clip I found. I'm still on gingerbread though, cuz I don't have a normal sized sim card (the iphone only takes small ones). But here are my questions I need help with.
1) Is there any way to update to ICS without a simcard? Because when I try to update OTA, it just says "Insert simcard".
2) What is your keyboard of choice?
3) I've seen plenty of you guys going in to so called "tablet mode". How do you do that? I want my phone to be in landscape all the time.
4) Is there any good battery packs that works with a flip (book style) case that works like a kickstand if you fold it in a special way? I have seen both good 3rd part batteries AND nice flip book cases that can be folded in to a kickstand, but I want the two of them in one. Or a better battery that are the same physical size as the stock one.
Thanks!

Best keyboard is Swype.
Don't know about SIM free install.
I suspect a CWM install doesn't require a SIM.
Make sure you read Dr. Ketan for all of the critical info you need for safe ROM and kernel flashing.

Answers
1st :- You can flash ICS using PC Odin or Mobile Odin Pro. Just download the rom from ketan thread and put your phone in download mode by pressing Vol Down+Home+Power button simultaneously.
2nd :- For me Swiftkey 3. Link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey&feature=top-paid
3rd :- Tablet mode is the mode that runs on tablets. But as the developers doing wonders day by day you can use it on SGN too. There are some roms in Original Android Development Thread that supports Tablet mode like Paranoid Android/Milestone 6/JB/CM10/CM9 editions. Link to thread :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1700
4th :- You can have a look in the accessories section here :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1348

I think I've messed up a bit haha. I flashed ICS with PC odin, and everything was fine. But I wanted do try Paranoidandroid. And in that thread it said that you should go back to GB before flashing it. So i did via the link in your signature. I flashed back to GB. But now my phone got messed up. I can boot it up. But at the "first-start-installation" thingy i get FC's on RAM and some calender stuff. Also, when i try to type in my gmail in the beginning it just types "null" for every letter I try to write.
Have i been so stupid and bricked my phone? Could it be that your GB in your signature was a full wipe recovery thing? Cuz I remembered somewhere that you shouldn't wipe the stock ICS.
You have any plans?
As for now, i'm downloading Paranoidandroid v0.5 and i'm going to try to flash it right away and see what happends.
Nothing to.worry, just reboot in recovery and wipe cache and data then flash custom rom.
Force closes is normal when you flash gb rom over ics. And null typing error will go with mew rom.

ok so i got ParanoidAndroid to work. No problem. The only problem I have now is installing the gapps. can't find the zip file for it. On the link in the thread, there's like 12 different files, but no complete zip file for gapps. And I tried to download them all, but them on my sd card and install. But all of them fails. it's like frameworks, some settings thingy n stuff. But non of them works to install from the recovery menu.

**DOES NOT WORK ON 10.1 BASED ROMS**
Alright guys here it is, a flash-able zip that you can flash in recovery to get wifi and vibration working on i717 ROMS
while in recovery before you flash the WiFi.zip file make sure you MOUNT system and then install. Once the WiFi.zip is flashed UNMOUNT system and reboot. Flash Wifi fix.zip last after you have already flashed the rom, gapps, radio ect... This fix should work for all Jelly Bean roms
### For this step i would use the computer. After downloading the ROM your going to flash, use 7zip file manager, right click on the downloaded rom zip move down to 7zip and open archive. delete boot.img and replace with the boot.img that is attached below. Close 7zip and move ROM to your sd card.
Also make sure you flash TeamWin Recovery for the sgh-i717 If you try flashing with TeamWin for our device it does not allow it because of the device name in build prop...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
steps that i have taken:
Flash openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1 sgh-i717 then reboot to recovery before starting on the steps below.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.wipe factory data reset
2.wipe system
3.flash darkside superwipe EXT4. (Thanks to TDJ for this wipe script)
4.flash i717 jelly bean rom of choice
5.flash GAPPS
6.flash T-Mobile radio (found over in the goodies thread)
7.flash Wifi fix.zip (DONT FORGET TO MOUNT SYSTEM BEFORE FLASHING THIS) other wise it will not work.
8.wipe cache and dalvik cache
9.Reboot- wifi and vibration should be fixed --
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also I can confirm this works for the following ROMs, "pacman all in one (I'm using that one currently) Aocp, and paranoid. So anything jelly bean should work.
I was trying to make a flash-able boot.img to make things easier but for some reason it would not work. The ROM will only boot when boot.IMG is manually inserted. Not sure why that is.

I can confirm it works, latest PA and it's probably a placebo effect but things are much smoother and the hspa+ speed seems more solid and stable now. I'll give some other roms a try, if they ever want to download.

I want to make sure I understand this correctly. If I want to flash a TW Rom I need to get the boot.img from an exsiting TW Rom or do I use the one provided in the OP? Also would it matter if the boot.img comes from an older version TW Rom?
Credit and Thanks
This is Android 4.4 KitKat for the MB886 Atrix HD. These are built from @dhacker, @epinter, and the rest of the razrqcom dev team's sources. All credit goes to them, I'm simply compiling the rom for the Atrix HD and sharing it with everybody else.
Warning
Before you go flashing this, be aware that it should be considered early alpha and things might not fully work. If you flash this and your phone dies, catches fire, or robs old ladies, it's on you and you've been warned.
There's also an issue with our Device Family in general where some phones just can't flash 4.4 or run it. If you're one of the unlucky one, pray that @Hashcode and @dhacker figure it out.
Info
Credits and warning out of the way, if you have a successful flash the rom works quite well and seems to be pretty stable, though I haven't done that much yet. Be aware that this doesn't have root by default, so you'll want to flash a zip to root as well.
What your're here for
Latest Deodexed Rom
Latest Odexed Rom
KitKat Rom Folder
Gapps
Odexed Gapps
Root
The gapps are PA Gapps and the root is Super SU. Credits to the PA Team and Chainfire for them.
How to enable ART
Install Odexed 4.4 and Odexed Gapps -- This is a requirement and ART only works on ODEXED ROMS....DO NOT PROCEED WITH DEODEXED
On first boot, skip entering Google username and password
Instead, go to Settings>About Phone, scroll to the bottom, and tap Build Number 7 times to enable Developer Options
Go to Developer Options>Seletc runtime and select Use ART instead of Dalvik.
After you select it it will force reboot the phone, keep that in mind so you can access recovery in time
In recovery, Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache...boot phone
That's pretty much it. Enter your Account Information and use your phone as normal....
Don't flash dumb sh!t to /system after this....

Weak signal strength (not for all of us, but for some it's an issue)
External SD detected as read only by certain apps (Titanium Backup for example)
Hair lice (requires Nix)
Apps don't always work or install when using ART
Front Camera doesn't work
Roaches (needs tweezers and a lighter....wait, I mean Raid)
For Some, Video playback doesn't work
Plugging and/or unplugging HDMI can cause the system to freeze up -- have to hard reset to fix (hold both volumes+power for 10 seconds)
Freaking sweet. Will be flashing to test on Sunday.

Credit and Thanks
This is Android 4.4 KitKat for the MB886 Atrix HD. These are built from @dhacker, @epinter, and the rest of the razrqcom dev team's sources. All credit goes to them, I'm simply compiling the rom for the Atrix HD and sharing it with everybody else.
Warning
Before you go flashing this, be aware that it should be considered early alpha and things might not fully work. If you flash this and your phone dies, catches fire, or robs old ladies, it's on you and you've been warned.
Info
Credits and warning out of the way, if you have a successful flash the rom works quite well and seems to be pretty stable, though I haven't done that much yet. Be aware that this doesn't have root by default, so you'll want to flash a zip to root as well.
What your're here for
Latest Rom
KitKat Folder
Gapps
Root
The gapps are PA Gapps and the root is Super SU. Credits to the PA Team and Chainfire for them.
Bugs
External SD not mounting.
Art causes crashes (because gapps are deodexed)

Yep, but the signal is weak. Only tried 3g and 4g. Heard 2g might not work earlier today, haven't checked yet. My only real issue is no external sd and not being able to restore my Titanium backups.
I'll add that I installed this with cwm 6.0.4.4 & adb sideload as root on my pc....been too lazy to setup the udev rules so I gotta run adb as root. I won't say one way or another is the other recoveries work or not with this.
been wanting to run this on my HOXL but there hasnt been a rom made for it yet.
willing to move from holoblur to this rom once its fully stable.
Holly smokes I feel like breakdancing right now. Lol
Thanks to all the people involved with this and specially to our developer @skeevydude.
You guys rock....

dude, I haven't done much more than compile this and any one of us could have done that. Just look at the commits, dhacker and epinter get all the credit.
Chrome doesn't seem to like the Gapps you linked to, says they're malicious. Anyway, I'll be holding off on AOSP at least until someone gets the external SD working (I already tried taking it out and putting it back in like it fixed it on whatever ROM we had the problem on before, but no luck). I need my backups!

I know bro, but you to me still my/ours developer. My point is that regardless and I know that dhacker and epinter are the guys that have made all of this possible but I also have to credit you as you deserve it since you are a strictly mb886 dev-user.
Thanks to all and you.
Just make sure is not a gay sh!t. Lol

Latest rom is the latest AOSP 4.4 I've built, KitKat Folder is the folder I have them saved to on Copy.com, ya know, so old copies are around if a newer nightly breaks something -- more of a future thing....
I didnt get any signal with xt925...great to see 4.4 so close to our device though...
OP Updated.
New rom under latest nightly
Intermediate build between yesterdays and this had partial SD support, could read but not write which is at least good enough to restore TB Backups. Not sure if this one is read only or read/write cause I'm still on the boot animation
Awesome man! Downloading it now! Thanks!

Updated bugs in the OP
Changed no external sd to External SD mounted as read only
Added weak signal strength
I'm gonna mess with some mount commands and see if I can't get the external sd to be read/write. Wish me luck.
At least we can restore from the external sd....better than nothing.
Great news! Thank you! I'll give it a shot. If there is at least read only - it is ok for me because I'm using card for music only.

Just installed it. The benchmarks seem promising, haha!
Doesn't seem like the bluetooth is working. I'll keep testing and see if something else isn't working.
Oh, I was running OC at 1708MHz. I'm trying out 1804MHz now. At 1881MHz it freezes my phone
Which kernel are you using.

The one that had "(Recommended)" next to it.
I guess going to 1804MHz doesn't freeze at first, but once I put it to heavy use it freezes.
The I/O scheduler only can set to ROW. I cant set it to anything else.
The only problems I noticed so far are the bluetooth, I/O scheduler, and the video camera that came with the KitKat launcher ( I was kinda expecting that), but the stock camera app works fine.
Very fast and snappy rom. I will probably probably use it day to day till a more stable 4.4 comes out.
Good job dude!
WiFi is broken for me, did all the wipes. Thanks

Bad news is my hard drive took a crap today. Good news is all my work is backed up. So it will be about a week before I can continue my work. Between ordering and shipping. But please keep reporting bugs. Also you shouldn't be able to overclock more than 1.4ghz as I have yet to release my own kernel and never touched cams kernels

Nice to have ya back
I get a slight problem sometimes after I flash a different ROM then go back to this one, it won't boot up. Not sure if its from the previous ROM (its just been the 4.4 rom ive been switching back n fourth with), or another matter.
I get it to boot up again after retrying a few times, but not sure what the problem is. Maybe the installation option.

Dalvik, cache, data, and tried system before as well
I believe what's causing all the problems is the permissions. Beta will be a major improvement over prebeta, as in my free time when all I had was just my phone I was doing some heavily studying up on aroma. Not good giving an ETA but CE Project 2 beta will be released along side AOIP CE BETA. So it will be a dual release. Note CE Project 2 is NOT project ION. If it was then I would've referred it as that and not CE Project 2.

Good to see there is still activity on this phone. Am trying to fix my exhibit so that I can go back to flashing Roms.
Is there a reason why you have this thread on the general forum instead of development?

I want to add my verbal support for this project as well. I think AOIP 8/10/2013 is currently the best ROM that I have encountered for this phone thus far. The AOIP 2.0 builds had nicer features, but they weren't as stable as the 8/10/2013. An improved version of AOIP 8/10/2013 would be awesome and that sounds like what you are attempting to do. So, thanks!
AOIP CE is just hold people over for now and give a users a feel of what's to come. CE 2 is ROM independent but will also be required later on for project ion features. Once betas start rolling out it may move over to the dev thread but since is prebeta its here for the time being. Ya the 8/10 aoip is the best which is why I used that.

Im good. just slow after a dog bite on my arm. can only type one handed at the moment but still progressing. A release is still coming. AOIP CE is on hold. CE Project 2 is what im working on now as its universal and will work for your rom and it seems most have already moved on from AOIP and this phone. So depending on how the new year goes i may or may not release beta of AOIP CE and just focus on CE Project 2 and ION Project. Im hoping to have CE2 beta ready by the 1st and so far it looks like I'm right on schedule. Testing everything as I go so it won;t be nearly as bad of a release as CE1 prebeta. BTW how are you doing with getting ION running. Obviously things will be broken.
