And of course, why?

I also think you're the one who actually wanted to build a Note 4 from scratch.

Can a Ferrari run with a Kia engine?
The answer to this one and your question is "No". (And why would you want this?)

Very likely not. The Note 4 uses a lot of fairly new components, and you'd have to dig really hard to find Jellybean drivers for all the various bits of hardware. You'd probably end up with a one-off hodgepodge of things that work well, things that work poorly, and things that don't work at all.
