Any roms out there that look better than stock and still have S-Pen features for AT&T note 3

Hey there Noters!
I was attempting to debloat my phone and a lot of the functionality was deleted. I need to re-install the OS now and looking for a good 4.4.4 rom that offers S-Pen features. Thanks!

ALL ROMs for the Note 3 are the stock ROM modified. Since the bootloader is welded shut, you can't install an unsigned ROM, and the only way to get a signed ROM is to start with stock.

Are there any good ones out there? Look on AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Android Development - XDA Forums for some. They're mainly debloated and look different. About the main thing you can do is root the phone (or install a rooted ROM), run Safestrap, then at least you can back up the entire ROM (which saves hours of sweat if you screw something up - just restore a good backup) and you have a decent recovery.

Look for one you can flash with Odin first, then you can go from there. It doesn't even have to be one you like, just one that works. (Firecat is the first one listed - I don't like the looks, but it works fine.)

Ok thanks, I guess the next issue is restoring of all my apps and settings. I am willing to experiment with different roms but since there is not easy restore function on android, it kind of sounds like a too big of a hassle.

This is quiet . . .so maybe you've recovered everything.

If not you could Odin a clean version of NC2 onto your (ATT?) Note 3, re-root with Towelroot, load Safestrap (75?) and be back a clean start. . .
For other AT&T Note 3 with this situation --you can see XDA (also you can go back from 4.4.4. to 4.4.2!)
