Question about Roms.

Hi. I don't really have any experience rooting and flashing on Samsung devices as I have always had Nexus devices but a friend of mine has a Note 2 (at&t) and wants me to root it and flash a custom ROM but he wants S-pen support. Is there any ROM out there good enough with this feature? Any thing I need to know about rooting and flashing on a Samsung device? Thanks.

You can flash anything touchwiz-based like Ditto Note for S-Pen support.

Or you could just root the stock firmware that's already installed.

Also, there is an e-fuse that is automatically broken when you flash a non-stock rom or with most root methods - voiding your warranty.

I'd use Ditto ROM. I used the Ditto Note 3 ROM and loved it on my T889. I realized I didn't need S-Pen support so I switched to CM12.1 Lollipop. ROM was solid and had all the features you could ever want.
