Howdy I'm curious is there a way to convert the Verizon Note 2 to a Pure Google experience?

I'm still getting used to the TouchWiz interface on my Samsung Note 2 yet I'd like to know if there's a way to make it a GPE Google stock phone? I know it's probably not possible but I'm curious any advice?

I am pretty certain that there is no way to do this, for a couple reasons. 1. most full conversions are done on GSM phones. Verizon is a CDMA. And 2, since there is no actual GPE ROM for the Note, it is highly doubtful there is a way to convert it.

Now, there may be a port (someone made a GPE ROM work on a Note 2), but my experiences with ports is they don't work all that well.

One alternative is to see if you can gain root access, install a custom recovery and flash an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) ROM on your device that will look a lot like the Nexus or Moto X devices.

A different option is to try a different launcher, like Nova or Action
