[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
thanks

Youve been famous im just glad you let me post this bad boy. I know you made everyone with a t-mobile note very grateful. Keep it up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
That should work.if you have a cw m backup you can go to advanced restore and just restore boot.img not sure if there is a .modem option.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] Clark Joseph Kent:
Something missing??

After i download the zip i just flash in cwr or do i need to do another step? My installation aborted when i tried to flash
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
just flash what was the error are you using cwm.. i tested 3 times same exact zip file..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
I got installation aborted i will try again let you know if it was just a bad flash is it better to flash from the internal sd card instead ofexternal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
i use internal if aborts again see what it say if there is a error code.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] easyguy:
Most of the times when I get errors installing, was due to a bad download.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Same thing i was thinking probabaly a bad download
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
Do u flash this Rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] easyguy:
I'm downloading it with my slow work internet. Thanks for this mod. If one of these AT&T Note devs include wifi calling than my quest for a rom will be over.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
Google voice works like a charm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
I have the option for WIFI calling in Settings. I never tried it so not sure if it works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Flashed again error code. ..cant open/emmc/blackstar_atmo zip(bad)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
He may need to check his uploaded file. It may have gotten corrupted when he uploaded it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
Anyone else have any flashing issues please let me know if it worked or not
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
What Rom r u on now stock did u try to re download. I am waiting to see if anyone else has a issue if so i will re up
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] easyguy:
Yeah I saw your suggestion earlier, it is just that I prefer a one stop usage for calls/txts, well I guess google voice can do that same too, but most everyone I know know my regular phone number not my google number.

Does that option let me log into t-mo wifi calling and make calls from my t-mo #? Or is that like grooveIP or the likes?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Im on the latest stock tmobile rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] easyguy:
I just flashed this rom and it flashed OK. Booted up fine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Im thinking i had a bad download
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
Awesome thank you looks like he has a bad download im glad my upload is fine how's the Rom im pretty sure if you enable Wifi calling in the setting it works just like stock t-mobile wifi calling.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] easyguy:
b3,

Which modem did you use? I'm getting a lot of lags like when we flashed the original tmo modem without it being modified and it was laggy.

I'm going to do a complete wipe and try to install the rom again to see if that was the cause.

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

OK, wiping and reinstalling, stop the lags, will be trying this rom out and come back with a review.

---------- Post added at 11:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 PM ----------

LOL I do have the AT&T Note, I think some of the boot file is making my AT&T note lag/no sound. So I can always flash the AT&T rom without the modified boot and that should take care of the lag.

I'll try that tonight on a faster connection.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
you can just use the original att rom and flash the modem tomin.fhl has in his post.the boot.img contains the kernel att and tmobile differs in kernels a small bit.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] easyguy:
Sorry, thought we ALL have the AT&T version :laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
at leastb we know why you had issues. its cool. thanks for letting me know..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] javip:
IM going go download your mod here at home and try it out. This is frustrating me that I can't get a rom to boot myself. Restored boot.img from a nandroid advance restore. still no go.

Then flashed the radio.

Next step will be to OTA and try again.

That's the only thing that differs between me you and tomin.

Except I'm using the new radio on the oob rom.

Will post back. :thumbup:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
You have a tmobile branded note correct?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] javip:
yes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
what radio are you using i thought uvlg3 was the latest. let me know how my mod flashes when download completes if you have a problem we can takes somes steps to try and fix..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] javip:
i'm using uvlg3 on the oob rom. i haven't done the ota yet.

i'll try your rom first.

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------

one thing i didn't think to ask.

are you flashing from internal or external sdcard?

i remember that the super user signed zip would not flash from my external sdcard but worked from my internal card.

any insight?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] karryt:
That option is for calling via SIP and you need to have a provider to use it, it is not the same as T-Mobile's Wifi calling.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
I always use internal!!! just to be safe!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
I use google voice for wifi calling it works amazing try it out download from market sign in with google username and pass then choose your settings and should work. If you go into your google account via browser you can get a new number for life and no matter what provider your on if someone calls your number or the google voice number it rings your cell.plus you can text via google voice and visual voicemail!you can set it to show your mobile number instead of Google voice number.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Downloaded the rom again and flashed everything went smooth..this rom is fast and smooth now i feel my phone is aliveeeeeeeee thanks

Only issue i have found is when u record a video. ......playback doesnt work it will say file not valid..any video playback says not vaild file.or not.found but great rommmmm still
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] illest_one_7777:
small situation

so i went ahead and tried flashing this rom. i Was originally rooted and was running stock tmobile rom. When i flashed this i had it on internal storage. went thru aroma installer fine but when i go to reboot it doesn't come up it gets stuck on the samsung tmobile screen. i let it sit for a while with no luck. so after decideing i might not be able to boot this up i decided to restore my old backup. No luck it tells me its checking md5 sum and then it trys to load boot img. but an error pops up........... conclusion i think im soft bricked any help?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
Is your note tmobile branded? if so

try and do a data wipe, cache wipe, dalvik cache wipe and reinstall. if that doesnt work redownload reinstall if that doesnt work odin will..pm if you need help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] illest_one_7777:
Yes i have a t mobile note. it wasnt updated to the ota version t-mo had sent out . Like i said i download the rom but when it completly installs it seems like its going to boot but hangs on t mobile screen. i think it might have to do something with boot img bcause when i try to do a recovery of my old back up it says there was an error with boot img.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] javip:
i flashed this rom using twrp with no issues.

boots fine and runs super smooth.

b3ltazar:

i tried doing what you said and still no go for other roms.

i flashed your mod earlier. did a nandroid of just the boot then did a full wipe and installed another rom and then restored the boot i backed up earlier. something crazy is seriously going on.

i know i'm doing everything right just starting to doubt myself now lol.

either way im using blackstar now and loving it. i'm going to try and get regular t-mo wifi calling working on it only because signal in my area is totally screwed up and wifi calling is the only way i can get a mms to download.

thanks again for all the work. i'm going to start dissecting these roms and see what's going on. maybe there's a super simple way of getting other att roms to boot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] lkrfn5283:
has it been verified that wifi calling doesn't work on this rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] illest_one_7777:
Plzdt: how did you root and what stock system.did you have first. I managed to download the ota in Tomlins post and now it booted thank goodness I silvery soft brick took 3 hours but now IM up to date with the current rooted version of the latest ota. I currently have the touch recovery.but for some reason can't flash this.would you mind putting a link or mirror of your version of course with the ops permission
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] javip:
Try using twrp 2.2.1. For the recovery instead of cwm. Its completely compatible and that's what I've been using for all my current testing.

Unfortunately i don't have a complete stock oob rom mine was before the ota but flashed with twrp and using the latest radio. I couldn't revert back to the stock recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
This ROM works like a charm, haven't had any major problems. Very smooth and very fast. My only annoyance is opening my Contacts list and having to cancel att contact search or something like that lol. Anyways nothing major, just a bit annoying

For those having problems installing, here are the instructions I followed.

1. Download to sdcard (I always use the internal SD for flashing)

2. Reboot to CWM-based Recovery (I'm running the newest Touch CWM)

3. Wipe data/factory reset

4. Wipe Cache partition

5 Go into advanced> Wipe Dalvik Cache

6. Go into> Mounts & Storage

a. Format /data

b. Format /system

c. Format /cache

Install rom & Reboot

Enjoy! Hope this helps out people having a problem installing this beautiful ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Everything works smooth on my phone except video playback i get the error saying file not found or valid anybody else ran into this problem?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
Did you do a customized Install?

If so, did select the video player from the Aroma Installer?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Bigfau i did the default install
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
Did it loaded the stock Video player?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Just checked my files no it didnt load any video player ...i shouldve checked 1st smh my fault but i checked ur forum for the rom in the AT&T section and just installed super player ...GREAT ROM cant express it enough makes the blow of not being able to get the note 2 when it comes out alot more easy 2 handle
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] illest_one_7777:
So I tried installing the room again I did all the steps posted above but for the life of me I can't get this to load. It doesn't boot past the.Samsung galaxy note TMobile screen. How long do you let it sit before it boots. Any suggestion or maybe another mirror to like google drive
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
I will have to fix that. That is my fault. Sorry recepo.

Yup. I don't know if it can be installed like a normal apk. If you have a root file browser copy the video.apk to System/app and give correct permissions.

Hope that helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
No problem just installed Super Player and i like this alot better then the stock player anyway LOVE THE ROM
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
Here you go just in case. I fixed the Aroma Installer will be uploading soon. Then B3ltazar can update OP with the fixed version
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] recepo1:
Ok thanks alot appreciate it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
The upload is good, Sould only be on the tmobile screen a few seconds. After that give it a few minutes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
Alright now I had a major problem. After I added the Agenda widget to my home screen, both the Touchwiz launchers don't work. They both force close and just make the phone freeze. Booted in to recovery and restored my stock Nandroid backup. Will give this another go after work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
Need more info. What method did you use to install rom: Default, Lite, Custom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
I used Custom, had it working great for like 8 hours, very smooth and fast. Then all of a sudden that happened and the fun ended.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
Did you happen to flash anything after? It wouldn't just stop working. Something had to have changed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
Nope didn't flash anything, was just swiping through my home screens and it will freeze right away and about 15 seconds later, force close will pop up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
What app fc on you did u try fixing permission via cwm or Rom manager
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] lkrfn5283:
Thanks bigfau! love this build.I'll verify tomorrow if wifi calling works, I think it does, but the only place I know of where I can get wifi and 100% no signal is my work. Thanks in advance and thanks again for everything
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
I don't recall the exact names sorry. I just now they're both Touchwiz Launchers. One is the S3 launcher and the other is stock launcher I belive It's called Touchwiz home.

I fixed permissions through Rom Manager and Recovery. Nothing seems to help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
I haven't had that problem or anything similar Try and do a data cache and davlik cache wipe and reinstall the Rom i think Bigfau will update his Rom soon when he does ill post it here i will try to post a nonaroma build also. Thanks for the feed back
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
I think i found my problem. I can't get any Calendar related widget to work. Mini Agenda, Agenda, any Calendar size for that matter. The Touchwiz widgets fail to load and the other Google related calendar widgets make Touchwiz Launcher force close.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
did you wipe before installing the rom if not im sure thats all you need to do for the widgets to work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
I did, followed the steps I had posted before.

Wipe data/factory reset. Wipe cache. Wipe dalvik cache, wipe battery stat, and formatted system, cache, and data. Then ran the Aroma Custom Installer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] illest_one_7777:
Ok so i re downloaded the Rom from dropbox using a more reliable connection and cleared system and cache, then formatted system,data. And flashed again and it works. Rom seems stable atm. But further testing is needed. It has a black icon theme so if your into that then u can't go wrong. Again id like to thank bigF and blackstar for injecting life into this wonderful phone.

Now can we please get a way to use external sd as main sd for phone. Those gameloft games can get really hefty
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
What does it say in Build Number?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] Clark Joseph Kent:
Some Dark Walls...BLACK ★ STAR

I had posted these for the BLACK ★ STAR, so if anyone here would like them, have at it, some huh NsFw...but bigfau BStar user seem to like them

Non Flash...Download Unzip, O Snap...Use Image 2 WallPaper App to set Walls or quickpic

Dark Walls
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
just tested widget i get the same problem i will try and pul the stock tmobile apk any other widget problem or just agenda?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
All the calendar related Widgets do that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
That is an older build you guys are on. I updated the build on the 19th

DO NOT FLASH YET!

NEEDS BOOT.IMG CHANGED!

NEEDS MODEM CHANGED!

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Lol:cool::D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
Well hopefully this makes everything run good. So does that mean we no longer have the Accuweather widgets?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
The SG3 weather widgets were removed. The stock weather widgets are still in there. They are transparent though.

DO NOT FLASH YET!

NEEDS BOOT.IMG CHANGED!

NEEDS MODEM CHANGED!

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Lol:cool::D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
Oh, alrite alrite. I will paciently wait for an update. :thumbup:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
im uploading the new buid now also aug 19 50min left
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] lkrfn5283:
Just noticed this but I installed the blackstar full circle battery mod and it installed just fine and was working. My phone's low battery alert goes off and I noticed the icon reverted back to the stock battery indicator. Not sure if it reverted when the low battery message came up or if it reverted at an earlier point in time. Just a heads up.

*after charging for about 2 minutes it reverted back to the full circle battery mod
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] kelvin_swe:
i flashed this on my att note which had tmobile rom and radio. how would i know if flashing of this rom worked or not? in the build version i see imm76d.uvlg3

and definitely i do not see any black theme.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
Then you are not on Black★. It would say Black★STAR V in Build version if you was running it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
This mod is meant for tmobile branded notes.If you have a att note you should go to the original devs(bigfau) thread and flash his rom then flash a tmobile modem (tomin.fhl has a flashable zip posted in tmobile dev section) both links are on the first page of my post. Anyone with a att note will have a better user expirience using the att version.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] kelvin_swe:
Thank you for the quick reply. i tried this rom because i wanted wifi calling and i thought if you want to get better results with tmobile radio, you need to have tmobile rom and boot image.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] lkrfn5283:
Verified. Wi-Fi calling does NOT work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] lkrfn5283:
Also. Is there a way I can change the model number in the about phone section? Every time I post it shows that I have an at&t model (look below).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
to get the wifi calling to work im pretty sure you have to have a sip account and add it into the settings above where it says wifi calling. but as i said before google voice works great .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
You will have to edit your build.prop with a text editor save and reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
Not sure if anyone else has this problem but the Netflix from the custom installer doesn't work for some reason. It doesn't load up and it doesn't force close. Not sure if anyone else noticed that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
i had to reinstall netflix for it to work its in data\app i made a copy then deleted it from data app then reinstalled works great.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] bigfau:
I will be updating tomorrow to fix some issues, including this one.:o

Sorry guys.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] gibi310:
It never crossed my mind to try that. I uninstalled in Play Store and just reinstalled and it worked. No black theme though. I'll just wait for the new update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] lkrfn5283:
couldn't do it. every time i edit it and save it the phone won't boot up. not sure what i did wrong.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] b3ltazar:
Root explorer is the only app u should use es file explorer boot loops for some reason
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] trickedcavy:
Just wanted you to know, i tried to download, but when you click link it says account has been temporarily disabled due to "to much traffic" from your link....i would love to give the rom a try but i can't

The rom installer doesn't really work. He said he was going to upload an update last night.:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] trickedcavy:

After a few weeks of testing different roms and modems..I noticed that the T-Mo modems work best with the T-mo roms. I experience data drop off using t-mo modems with at&t roms.

Just too bad no dev as I know of is working on the t-mo rom itself.

I flashed this ROM on ATT Galaxy Note with tmobile radio,

I am using it since almost 3-5 days and this rom feels pretty stable. I do not see many dropped calls. I get good reception and 4G data. The data seems unstable sometimes its amazingly fast and sometimes its as slow as a turtle.

And the best thing i do not have a huge battery drain. now my battery lasts almost 10 hours with moderate usage(checking emails, calls, playing some games)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] kim621973:
Which AT&T rom did you flashed..

Flashed the updated version of blackstar rom great job big fau its even smoother a great rom overall very stable no problems at all

Its cool not much going on anyway im surprised no one has built a custom rom for the tmo note yet!! they are out of stock everywhere even on the tmobile website people must be buying them but i guess the sgs3 and note 2 took all the t-notes thunder! If it wasnt for you guys there would be no custom t-note roms.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note] audscott:
You're so right. Had a hell of a time finding mine. Online sold out and TMI stores in Portland OR not having any at all. Finally made a trip to Seattle and found three stores with stock. I'm a happy rooter now. :D
