Thanks I have always made sure I download a good version. I have always used titanium backup. Is there a better method to back up my apps and data? I have been using twrp for awhile. Thanks for the wonderful explanation.

I always do a clean flash also

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
Are you restoring everything ( system +app data with all checkmarks ) from tibackup? If so, dont! You shouldnt restore some things especially like gapps. Gapps from an older build would definitely give an issue on a newer build release ( much like themes made for older roms on newer ones will cause fc's all over).

I'd go into tibackup, and only restore Non system apps ( anything from play store ) with data first. Reboot. Then go back and restore specific things on the system app side that show up in green like tibackup messages, tibackup wifi access points, tibackup browser favorites etc. If its red, leave it alone. Theres a reason its red lol

Dont restore google maps, gmail, talk, or any of the apps built in at first. I also use TiBu. Its awesome but you have to be careful with it. Im posirive thats where your problem is coming from now.

I always go to the batch run for restore all system apps+ data, hit the box to uncheck everything, then go through and check the box for each app I want to restore. Avoid all red items. There will be a ti backup version of whatever further down. It takes an extra couple minutes but ensures you have no issues with replacing a crucial core system app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gatoremt:
No I only install specific apps. I dint restore all. I chose the apps one at a time. I have done different gapps. So maybe that has been the problem.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
Yeah just keep the gapps jeremy includes in the rom. I know people like the inverted ones but unless it was themed from that exact rom, it will give issues for sure.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gatoremt:
Ok thanks for the great explanations. I really appreciate it.

Anytime, as thats the Jedi way :) Hopefully your future rom flash will be without issues now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craniotomy:
Where do you download your roms? Fron the phone or on your pc? I usually download my rom on my pc as i find it that to have less chances of getting a bad download than on my phone.

Did you try a clean wipe? I just did a clean wipe about 3 days ago. And never had a problem with gapps. I reinstalled user apps thru titanium too, but i usually just do apps only, then when I'm finished setting up the basics, i restore data on selected apps only, no system restore. Then i install themes and whatever mod i want.

Fix permissions, problem solved, not the ROM....lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
You are fine downloading to the phone. Its the only way ive done it for years. Saves a few steps that could corrupt a download too. ( copying a file from a desktop to the phone adds another time the file is touched, therby adding a chance it didnt copy/paste properly ).

Download directly to external sd, check md5, and you are guaranteed a clean fresh install. If you place it on internal and move it to external, check the md5 again after you do. Anytime you move/copy/paste a large file, there is always a chance of corrupting it.

Thats where so many people make a mistake. They check the file integrity after downloading to a computer, but, not again after they move it.

Always backup twrp or cwm to external, and always flash from external. Some roms give the user options like wiping data.....well....if the rom install is on the data partition (data/media on our phones) you will hose your install file.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Craniotomy:
When i was downloading thru my phone most of the time i get different issues/errors. Sometimes it won't boot up. So i download purely on my pc which is faster and just transfer it to my sd card then clean wipe. When i did that all issues/errors stopped. Try it, might fix it. It's nice to clean wipe once in awhile, helps you recover some space.

In addition we all are capable of helping others with some of the simple issues that they have, leaving the more daunting help for the Council themselves, imagine the added development we could contribute to.

Hey man :)

I have been out of the forum world for a while now so I am now back and want to updated to the latest Jedi. I do not care much about Wifi calling, so just wondering which you would recommend, Master or X?

Also, since I haven't done this in a LONG while, I was wondering if you might be able to help me out. I am on stock firmware and the only thing I have done is root the phone, so I need to start from scratch pretty much lol.

So, I was just wondering if you might have a step by step guide for dumbasses like me lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tongueman87:
Root done so far for you thats great next step download goo manager and press menu and install open script recovery it will install twrp recovery after that download rom place on sd card. Next make a backup with the recovery. After that factory reset wipe system cache dalvik cache and data. Next flash the rom chose what you would like with the aroma installer and voila wipe cache dalvik and fix permissions. Do NOT FIX ROOT let sit for 10 minutes reboot then setup your phone

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] samklee:
I would just stick with x. Master adds wifi calling adds for tmobile users but I wouldn't say master is better than x, especially for att users.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JB910:
Stay on X, Master is built especially for T-Mobile users to integrate wifi calling. X always gets updated first also.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] elite-fusion:
So if i dont care about wificalling i should just install X? Is it better that Master with the exception of WifiCalling? or is it the same as Master just take a few extra days to get an update after X?

I noticed that the Master has the words LTE Support, just wondering the X has it too because I didnt see those words there.

PS. I am on a TMobile Note 2 with TMobile as my service, just in case lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Septembersrain:
They both have LTE. You do have to modify the Systemui.Apk for it to show the LTE symbol on X though.

I like Master better myself because I don't see the icon fluctuations.

Sent from my SGH-T889 using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] samklee:
Aside from wifi calling, the other differences between X and master are subtle. They are based on different Roms, with X based on an international Rom. This is why the lte icon is not present but as long as you have your modem updated and your apn changed to fast.t-mobile.com you will get lte on Jedi x
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] elite-fusion:
Alright, so I will just stick to Master in that case.

Also, once I follow the instructions on top, and go through the update to Jedi Master, i wont lose anything that is on my SD card right? I just read stories that it gets corrupted all of a sudden and I do not want that to happen. Please advise.

Helium ald I Am backs up the data plus the app, some apps do require you to re download it from the play store, but the data and progress for all apps is backed up, to where ever you want, the cloud, sd, and even your computer.

I just fully baked up the apps on my wife's galsxy s3 before clean wiping it. Helium also allows for restoring on different devices, plus it backs up apps, your launcher/ homescreens, etc. More than just apps.

This is crazy that this rom just updated. I was just coming on here to give out some info just in case and seen the rom wasn't updated. Last night at around say 12:30 i was downloading a fresh copy of jedi master 14 to add to the archives i keep on my own cause i always like to keep all versions if i ever need or feel like going back & to also just flash a clean version before the next release like i always do. Well just this morning i flashed what i had dl'd & noticed what flashed was jedi master 16 and not 14. I have no clue how this even could happen, i just looked and even what downloaded said jedi master 16 and not 14, I dont know how i didnt notice this right away,lol. I was just now coming in here to post this info for the dev just in case it happened with anyone else and people were running around with jedi master 16 before ptmr3 even released it and would upload it for people to download and flash. I was doing this to show im an honest person & was even gonna let the dev know i was going to unflash it from my phone right away,lol. 1st thing that brought me to even notice anything is that when id plug in my usb to my pc the phone would lock up and i'd have to pull the battery,lol. Cant say i wasnt excited to have jedi master 16 before it was even released but i also thought it could have been some type of test version & didnt want to somehow mess up my phone also. Hopefully this helps for the future though cause i dont know if the roms get uploaded via xda or what and you could maybe find out what happened. I'll even post some screens here to show that im not b.s'ing. It was very odd but again i was just trying to show im a honest person and wasn't going to keep it on my phone & would never upload something for people that wasnt mine.

Now that i just compared them they are exactly the same in size and have the same amount of files so hope the usb problem isnt in the one that was just released also. Just a heads up if people start saying there a problem when plugging the usb plug.

alright well i followed steps, it failed backup of /data not sure why but i went ahead with the Factory reset, then I also cleared the cache, and booted the phone to go through main steps, then remembered i had to clear delvik, which i then went back into the cwm and did, now when i reboot and go back into cwm, how do i actually install Jedi Master? when I go into Install from SD Card, I only have sdcard/update.zip and when i try to mount the external sd card it says that it failed to mount it.

please help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
Looks like you must have wiped your sd which had the ROM zip on it.

I've done this before. It freaks me out a little.

Go download Jedi Master 16 onto your computer, then drag and drop it into your phone over the usb.

Flash ROM and do a new backup.

Also, I should say that I was always hooked on CWM and was reluctant to switch, but it really made a huge difference when I did.

CWM seems to mess up more often
