Why call this rom the PlayStore Rom? Because this rom features absolutely nothing, thats the beauty of it! If you want something your going to have to get it from the PlayStore. You can customize it any way you want. The rom boots and you can make a phone call and get on the playstore thats about it. So have fun!
Features
Google Dialer and Google Contacts
S7 Camera
Google Launcher
Samsung Gallery Left so Lockscreen Wallpaper can be changed
Google Now
Google Maps
Verizon Visual Voicemail
L Speed (for tweeks and other stuff)
Thats It No More! Dont Ask Thats why its called the Playstore Rom. If you want it download it!
Bugs
Alot of things will not work or may FC in settings. This is because it is removed. Deal with it!

You must decide if you want to use Google IncallUI or Samsung InCallUI. Samsung InCallUI will allow too still receive and switch to video calls and the google IncallUI will only support HD calling. To switch to google IncallUI goto settings/applications click on default applications choose calling app and click on the blue phone app. To switch back to samsung IncallUI is a little more complicated. You will need an app like root explorer and goto data/system/users/0 and then findthe setting_secure.xml and delete and then restart phone. This will restore samsung IncallUI as default
You will also want to turn edge features off since everthing is deleted
Also you need to goto SuperSU app and goto settings and click on enable su during boot and also click trust system users
Goto this thread and under Recommended Next Steps find the S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip or latest version and flash to fix kernel lage and doze fix.
Goto setting/about phone
Click on build number 5 times to enable developer options
Change animation and duration scales to .05 this will speed up phone
You will also have to change charging/file mode from within developer options
Remember Wiping Dalvik cache will cause phone to take up to 10 min to boot on deodexed roms
If using samsung IncallUI here is a fix for call phone FC and also location service fix

@jkruse Thanks bro appreciate your efforts. One favor, do you know where the Olympic theme is located on your first Rom? (Which folder?) I'm going to extract it from the other version and install it in this one. For some reason its not on the Samsung theme store.

I didnt mean for my reply to come across rude. I just thought since the OP looks like the other one you thought it was the same. This is basically nothing but a bootable rom with like 5 apps installed thats it there are over 180 running apps removed. I kind of thought it would be cool to be able to build your rom how ever you want it without having to worry about what you can delete and what you cannot. I appreciate the support especially on new development. Understand I have many threads and and other devices so i sometimes keep my answers short and direct especially when using the mobile app which I hate using.

Ok, that is what I thought. I just was trying to determine if there was anything else major missing from that other ROM, knowing some apps would have to be pulled or installed, hence your "Playstore" moniker for this ROM. Ok, this is a good clean base ROM for those who like to order "a la carte" down the road when the need for other features are required. I may give it a spin for the fun of it.
Cool! We are good.

I'm using the Google incall with no issues at all. Probably no need to flash if that's what you're using.
So far the ROM is nearly perfect.
Having some MMS issues again. It only works when Wifi is turned off or not connected to a network.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I even flashed your fix it ZIP.

I actually found one of the battery saver apps to be causing the issue. I think it was amplify through xposed, it caused the mobile data to turn off when connected to wifi. So, i turned it off and haven't had an issue since.

Thanks to Android Revolution for providing the nandroid backup of his T-Mobile Note, here's a complete stock, rooted, deodexed, zipaligned ROM. I'll look in to releasing a modified framework-res.apk later that adds SIP calling settings and modifies the auto-brightness levels. If no one else does it first, I'll probably look in to adding the extended power menu to make it easier to reboot in to recovery and maybe see if we can get the 15 toggles mod that works on many AT&T roms working too.
I didn't remove any apps, so if you know there are things you don't want, feel free to open the zip and delete things out of /system/app before flashing. Suggestions on what can/should be removed would be great too.
This does not include the modem so flash that separately if you want the latest T-Mobile modem. I'm working off of an AT&T Note so it's easier for me to keep the modems and ROMs separate. tomin.fhl already has that posted for you here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837907
Thank these folks for making this possible:
Android Revolution and all the folks releasing bits from the T-Mobile Note.

Edit (09/02): If you're looking for a stripped down version, I've customized the ROM more or less to my liking and have uploaded it for others to use. These are the changes I remember off hand:
Removed:
TouchWiz "stuff" (launcher, widgets, supporting APKs)
Samsung keyboard/TTS (keyboard wasn't working anyway and I don't use it so didn't spend too much time figuring out why)
Most of the wallpapers, including all of the live wallpapers
Some Google Apps (new Play Music/Video, a few others) as they inevitably end up out of date anyway and need to be updated from Play Store. The ones that I left in the system partition have been updated to latest available on Play Store.
Other T-Mobile add-ins (if you actually miss anything that was removed you can grab it from the full stock ROM)
Added to system:
Apex launcher
Hacker's Keyboard
Google Now (from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224)
Edited framework.jar to include the 4-way reboot option to restart in to recovery (based on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24303020&postcount=13)
Edited framework-res.apk and added in the native SIP calling settings (based on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109962). Also tweaked the screen brightness when on Auto to be a bit dimmer (based on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1541180).
Added as non-system APKs:
T-Mobile My Account (overlaps a lot with Access T-Mobile, I'd pick the one that works better for you and delete the other)
ES File Explorer
Titanium Backup
Solid Explorer
aLogcat
Chrome
I've been using this build for a couple of days and it has so far been problem free for me. If the camera closes on you after initially loading the ROM, a reboot seems to fix that without it cropping up again. Last thing on my to do list is to look at replacing the T-Mobile tether app (I don't tether too often so it hasn't been a priority). In the future I'm considering replacing the S-Note and S-Memo apps with some of the community/other developer note (Memo/Papyrus/etc) taking apps, mostly in preparation for a jump back to Cyanogenmod ROMs once they gain a bit more stability.

Can i flash this on my rooted att note with sim unlocked?
I never knew that we could remove or add system apps inside the zip and have it flash without any problems. So I could add the cerberus security app? and remove t-mo bloat? then flash via cwm?
I know this is a basic question. Would love a "dummies" answer if possible.:silly:
I can't wait to get my T-Mo note for some HSPA+ lovin'.
Thanks a bunch for this (thanks button hit).

It works fine on the AT&T Note, that's what I used to test with. Just make sure to use a modem that is modified for i717 since using both the mdoem.bin and amss.bin straight from a T-Mobile Note causes it to run about 10 times slower than normal. I know tomin.fhl, jeet92 and others have different combos that work and I may do a little testing too next week when I get some time. Doesn't look like we can expect any breakthroughs in speed though unfortunately.

Yep, you sure can. I usually make a few changes when I download the zips for other ROMs, like modifying the framework-res.apk first to allow for native SIP calling, then saving it back in to the zip. Other interesting things to do is to add in the Google Now files that were modified to work with ICS so that you don't need to copy them in after a flash.

I'm not too sure about that, but my initial guess would be that it's not possible. Some quick Google'ing came up with UDP ports 500 and 4500 that are used, but that would be set on T-Mobile's servers so having your client try to connect on a different port would result in no connection. Have you asked your IT department if they could work with you to find out what rules could be added to the firewall to allow Wifi calling? I know some companies will install repeaters to help get reception for their employees if they're in a bad area, and this would be an effectively zero cost to them solution.

Hey karryt,
Had a small force close issue with the Samsung Keyboard on your rom. I reverted to my pre-rooted image and it went away. Let me know if you need anything to help smooth out the rom because having a flashable zip would help me out as well.

English UK Locale?
Which language/region locales are included? Might English UK be in this or is it the same as the standard T-Mobile stock? Also, will a T-Mobile Note still work fully on their network with this ROM? I got confused by this radio talk.

I'll take a look at this but might not get to it until next week. I did get those FCs sometimes also, but it was better when I factory reset even when flashing over the same stock image. For now using a different keyboard seems to work fine as a workaround.

This is the same thing as stock, just modified a little to allow theme-ing and flashable via CWM. Looks like it does not have the UK language listed. You can use this ROM on both the AT&T and T-Mobile Notes and it should work just fine. You're not really gaining much if you're already on T-Mobile stock ROM though unless you want to flash mods on top of it.

Alright. I have a working phone remover. The deny signal is gone. The phone stuff is gone. Only problem is the device reboot when trying to bring up the power menu. So I guess we can't remove mobile data from the settings. Unless I or someone from here can figure something out. Anyways, now I''ll try to add flare effect and fix the mic and stuff.

Not working on 3100
on Booting the message "android.phone" has stopped and "android.gapps" has stopped pops every second. Cant even get through the setup process.

Wipe data-> wipe cache->wipe dalvik->install rom->wipe cache->wipe dalvik and reboot.
going back to cm now.
Thanks.
I have the P3113 and simply go into systemui.apk and remove all signal icons. I also remove all the battery icons simply because I prefer the bat %. I know this does not remove the phone stuff itself but it does get rid of the icons in the Noti bar without any errors.
Not the best way but it works.

Congrats on the new rom Mega. I haven't flashed it yet. But, I'm 99.99999999% sure you won't be able to get permissive mode on stock kernel. I've tried odined COD6 stock and a COD6 custom rom (both with stock kernel) and permissive was unobtainable. I then installed Bioshock 3.6 kernel on the custom rom and permissive is enabled by default. So, I'm sure it is a stock kernel issue. I strongly prefer using a stock kernel. So, I am hoping there is some other workaround to permissive mode. I can live without WLD (which needs permissive mode). But, I really really like Viper (which also requires permissive mode to work right.

YES me too!! I really love using kitkat from you ! I am hoping and hoping that once this whole permissive mode is solved, I can get back to using Viper. Without viper, I feel like I am missing something on my phone. Thank you again for your hard work , dedication, and love for andriod!

If your home button is mechanically defective you can use a launcher
like Go Launcher or most any other launcher which has the option to
simulate the home button with swiping or double tapping the screen.
Most all the launchers like apex/go/adw and many others have the option.
Good luck!

I am working on putting together a custom Rom for the T-mobile LG V10 and I'm looking for some testers. Right now any volunteers will be testing my baseline rom, one that is as stripped down as possible. The goal is to create a stable rom with as little built into the base as possible, so that all apps are optional.
I've always been frustrated by the fact that if I prefer a clock app from the market, I've still got to have the stock clock eating up space on my system partition. Same with launchers, calculators, calendars, etc. And as time goes on, it has gotten worse. Now things like youtube, google apps, etc. have a base version sitting in system, and all your updates in /data, taking up twice the space. That is the idea behind Blackhole, that when it's fully complete, you have your choice of any apps you want, and none that you don't.
The first public beta is ready, and I'd like for some intrepid users to test it out. Be aware I will be asking you to wipe your phone to test this, I will be wanting reports of any issues you run into, and this rom will be missing things you will wish it had. Be prepared to download a lot of apps from the market, because when you flash this ROM, you will have about half a page of apps left when it first boots.
I have decided to release version 0.31 Beta to anyone interested. Be aware that there are some issues stemming from stock apps being removed, you can look through this thread for details, but here are a few:
No ability to set/keep custom lockscreen wallpapers without adding the LG gallery
Cannot preview pictures or set custom homescreen wallpapers until you download a gallery app from the market (google photos works great for me)
The following stock apps remain:
Camera
Contacts
Google Settings
Messaging
Mobile Hotspot (it's built into the wifi settings app or it would be gone too)
Phone
Play store
Settings
All other apps have been removed. This version is meant to be a baseline to build upon. If you want market apps integrated into the rom, just download them and use titanium backup to convert them to system apps, then they will stay if you wipe the device. If you want some of the stock apps back, either keep an eye on my folder for the V10 on Android File Host, as I will be periodically uploading zip files that will restore stock apps, or you can grab one of the stock system pulls and copy the apps you're missing to the correct folder on the phone using a root browser (es file explorer, rom toolbox, etc.) just make sure you're putting it in the correct folder (/system/app or /system/priv-app).
Additions:
Supersu
Busybox (files, not the app)
Nova Launcher
Requirements:
T-mobile LG V10 - this is the phone that I have, and the only model I will be working on at this time. If you've got an international version, or one for another carrier, I'm sorry, please don't try to flash this.
TWRP 2.8.7.1 - Instructions and files in this thread.
Basic knowledge of logcat, android file structure, how to recover from a soft-brick.
I also strongly recommend you backup your current setup, and keep this zip on your sd card so you can flash it from twrp if necessary
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, feel free to flash, just don't expect anything fully-featured just yet. This is the first release, everything so far has been slimming down, now it's time to build it back up into something more useful and flexible than stock.
Beta .3 changelog:
Removed some more unnecessary applications
Removed some additional files for deleted apps

Beta .31 changelog:

I'd test this in a heartbeat if I didn't need my phone for work. Good luck sir.
I'll only have this device until Feb or March (whenever the M10 hits T-Mobile), but if you don't get enough testers, let me know and I'll help with what I can until then.
Can't wait to see Blackhole return!

Thanks Sonof,
Great to see someone starting to get this going. Two things.
1: This going to be Odexed or Deodexed?
2. I wouldn't mind helping out where i can, definitely not the most expert but i do have a couple others that are more knowledgeable and they have the v10 as well. so between the 4 of us, i think we can help you out. If interested and want us, just shoot me a PM and can try and help as well
Thanks again,

I would love to help you please send me a pm and maybe we can do a hangout group with all of us together so we can communicate in real time.

haven't tested a rom before but this is my first LG phone would defently like to gave a go at testing a rom out. i did notice they have much less stock apps than samsung and the rom is much smaller. i'm comming from a note four so to see the phone boot with only two screens worth of apps i was lost for a second thinking something was missing lol. PM me or just add a link here i will down load and test it out.

Still working out what can and can't be removed without breaking the hell out of the phone. some stuff that seems completely unrelated causes second screen to constantly FC when it's removed. I've made good progress though, and I plan on sending out the first beta invites tonight.
I'm in as well, if you still need testers

Uploading the first Beta now. If you PM'd me your interest, look for a response with instructions and a link in the next hour or so. Again, please be aware this is not a full featured rom yet, this is just a base with as much removed as i can manage without breaking the basic functionality. Once I get the base stable I'll start working on getting a full aroma installer put together with options for things like browser, launcher, email, bootanimations, etc. I'm looking forward to seeing how you guys can break it while I continue trying to strip out more fluff for Beta 2.
Read this whole OP before doing anything! Especially the bugs list !!!
** I am excited to announce that @dr.ketan 's Note 5 Port (INTERNATIONAL NOTE 4 BASED ROM)works for the Verizon Note 4 ! I am not a developer and do not take credit for this ROM. I only assisted in getting it to work for our phone. Enjoy!!
Give @dr.ketan many thanks and donate to him for developing his Note 5 Port!!: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/n910g-dr-ketan-custom-rom-t2928568
Give @Battlehero a thanks and donate to him for his time and effort for creating the data fix for our Verizon Note 4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-kyubi-rom-note-5-t3220106
Give @hsbadr a big thanks and donate to him for making this possible with his 5.1.1 Jasmine ROM and multi-system kernel!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/development/rom-jasminerom-v1-0-t3113771
Without them, this would not have been possible!
Remember that.
DISCLAIMER: Your warranty is now void. Please be careful make a full TWRP backup of your current Verizon ROM. I am not responsible if you break your phone or lose data on your device!
*A clean flash is a must if you are coming from another ROM or you will run into problems.* Do not post issues if you dirty flashed.
**Note only Dr. Ketan's L16F Note 5 port works for our phone. He has a Marshmallow version out also, so be sure to only download the L16F version.**
Big NOTE: (Puns intended) There are OG Developer's Editions and Converted Retail Editions. OG's, including me, have an aged KitKat 4.4.4 unlocked bootloader and we need to use multi-system kernel that @hsbadr patched to fix the brightness issue that was present during the Lollipop upgrade. We are forever in his debt. Converted Retail Editions have a newer Lollipop 5.1.1 unlocked bootloader meaning they can try other Verizon specific kernels without the brightness issue (You might come across other issues trying other kernels so please state what kernel you're using if you experience an issue). I'm also believing that it is possible that converts can experience issues that OG's don't experience due to the difference in bootloaders, and vice versa. It would be nice to know your build if you experience an issue. Thanks!
Instructions:
1.) Make sure you are on a 5.1.1 modem.
(N910VVRU2BOK3) or (N910VVRU2BPA1)
2.) Download the ROM to your SD
3.) Download the DataFix to your SD
4.) Wipe /system /data /cache /dalvik-cache (/InternalStorage Optional, you will lose your files on the device)*
5.) Flash the ROM.
6.) Flash the DataFix.
7.) Wipe Dalvik and Cache
8.) Reboot. (Will take about 10-15 mins to boot)
9a.) Wait until there is a prompt to install necessary patches and allow root access
9b.) Chose your battery and clock settings then reboot
10.) Go through the setup but do not log into the Samsung account or Google account during initial setup
11.) After the setup log into your google account
12.)Initially there is no calling audio and no My Verizon application support.
To fix this download root browser and navigate to the system folder and edit the build.prop by clicking on the build.prop file > use rb text editor > change these values to:
ro.product.model=SM-N920V
ro.product.name=trltevzw
*Note it is case sensitive*
Then click save
Then using root browser navigate to the system/privapp folder and delete the VzwSilentSSOEngine folder
Then reboot
**Note: On My Verizon you will need to log into your account using your user name and not your number**
13.) Enjoy!!
Once you are at your home screen make sure you are logged into your Google account before accessing Dr. Ketan Tweaks app because there is a dependency app that is required to be installed from the Play Store when you launch Dr. Ketan tweaks app.
To disable infinite scroll on TW launcher go to Dr. Ketan tweaks and long press launcher home scroll then back out and test.
I tested most tweaks and they work as they should. Please post any issues on this thread.
(Please do not try any of the network based features in Ketan's tweaks as they are meant for the international Note 4)
Please read the readme before using the debloater tool to get an idea of what it removes
As of right now there is no xposed support. I will need the help from users to find the best way to get it installed and I will update the OP with instructions.
Downloads:
Again **Note only Dr. Ketan's L16F Note 5 port works for our phone. He has a Marshmallow version out also, so be sure to only download the L16F version.**
Download Dr.Ketan ROM L16F ( N5 port I Theme support I S6 Edge features ) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65792766&postcount=6872
Scroll down to where it says:
"Download*- T-Mobile Users Read*this."
Expand the hidden content to get the download link.
then
Download @Battlehero 4/18/16 Data Fix V3.3 here (Go to the third post and expand "US Variants", look for N910V datafix): http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-kyubi-rom-note-5-t3220106
**READ ME**
Bugs:
- No GearVR support
- *MMS does not work correctly on the stock Messaging app (group chats come in and send as individual messages, and unable to send picture messages)
**(Workaround: Use Textra as default messaging app, MMS works like it should)**
- Unable to perform a factory reset within the settings because you will get non-stop FC's once booted up.
- If you do not wipe internal storage any old Note 2 files in you SNote data folder will kill the SNote app. So remove them from that folder and you'll be able to use SNote.
- System update in settings force closes the Settings
- Simultaneous data works at 4G speeds when talking on the phone but it shows it as a 1X connection. (Must have a 4G connection to work)
- To get My Verizon to work:
1. Navigate to /system/priv_app and delete the VzwSilentSSOEngine folder.
2. Edit the system/buid.prop file. Change the model value to SM-N920V and save.
3. Reboot.
4. You need to log into My Verizon using your user name your number will not work
Thanks @stueycaster and @rayjr13
- Verizon Visual Voicemail does not work and may never work
- Screen mirroring may not work
- If you change the model value in the build.prop to Verizon Note 4 model value (SM-N910V) it will break the theme store. Switch it back to SM-N920V to get theme store working again.
Read/search through the original OP threads for any non-Verizon specific issues first.
Credits:
Thank you so much @dr.ketan for developing your Note 5 Port !!
Thank you @Battlehero for creating a data fix for our phone !!
Thank you @hsbadr for your constant development and support for the Verizon Note 4, and of course for Jasmine ROM and multi-system kernel !!!

Check the original OPs they have their features listed but in my experience Ketan's has more mods and Kyubi is closer to stock Note 5.

Hmm that didn't happen to me but I do know that google playstore will update eventually so that might be causing problems. Also did you log in during the initial setup? I didn't not sure if it makes a difference.

That is weird about the play store. If you don't mind try starting over and skip both the google sign in and samsung sign in

Damn ok wait till it updates itself. You'll get the Google Play Store splash screen when you launch it once it's done updating. Hopefully that fixes it. I really wonder if logging on during the setup causes that. Regardless I updated the OP to hold off on logging onto google until after initial setup to make it exactly how I had it set up.
