It's an aroma installer glitch it is actually X20 even if it says 18.

Thanks so much. What is master x2?

@ ShrekOpher, I'm not too sure... when I install the rom the setup tells me that I'm installing jedix18. More over I installed jedix 19 on my wife's note 2 and the screen, and interface is a bit different.

Thanks so much Vebulous and lanchua!

I'm downloading now. :) But how do i update to "officail 4.3 via odin or find a flashable "Wifi patch/bootloader update" to flash in ODIN.""

What does this mean? ahha.. sorry guys. I'm excited to use Jedi master x2!

update: nvm guys, I think I found what I'm looking for. I just have to dl the Samsung 4.3 update for where I purchased the phone (in this case Singapore) and update it via Odin right? Then install jedi master? I hope that's right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ianchua:
Yes buddy! Are you also from Singapore?? You do not need the wifi patch if you are already on a 4.3 Bootloader!

sorry for the delay, I got caught up in a ton of work. I'm actually from CA but went to Singapore and bought the phones because they were having a sale. I'm going to try to update tonight and load up jedi master tonight. :)

I don't think I have 4.3 bootloader either. oh man... I'm going to have to do more research on this one too. hahah... thanks!

with t mobile, I'll be able to do wifi calling right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Yes you can do wifi calling, but I'm pretty sure you need tmobile service. Not sure if it will work if you have a different carrier.

To get the new bootloader, download the stock 4.3 odin file from http://www.sammobile.com You need to sign up for a free account and then saddle up because it's a slow download.

Or if you know how to use torrents pyraxiate has generously hosted a torrent with all the files you need to update. You can find that by searching in the Jedi master x thread.

Anyone having charging issues on X2. I haven't had my phone 100% for a few days and battery drains while charging. And idea why?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
Most likely your charger or cable. Try this app and see what it tells you.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free

I'm using Devil2 kernel so my results will differ.

However I was told charging speed is great on the stock kernel.

Plugging into a computer will only charge your phone at about 500mah

Sometimes chargers get mistaken for computer usb ports and also charge slow.

I bought a porta pow charge only usb cable, at first I got 1600mAh. However now it's only 1k after putting it in my pocket.

I think the cables can get screwed up really easily.

I figured it out. My wall adapter is trash. Luckily my laptop has USB3 so it charges my phone at 1000mah
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
1000 is better than nothing but you should ideally be at 1600

I would find a 2 amp wall charger and a good cable.

I think the stock kernel maxes out at 1600 but I've gotten devil kernel to charge at 2k with it's charge control settings.

My limitation seems to be my cable.

Verizon Note 2

This might be a silly question but I can't seem to find the answer by searching through this thread.

Does this work on the Verizon Note 2 (along with wifi-calling)? In specific, I have crappy T-Mobile reception where I live so the wifi-calling feature is the deciding factor for me. Appreciate for any pointers to the right direction. Thank!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
I know Wi-Fi calling works on any phone with T-Mobile service.

I'm not sure if MasterX works on the i605 though.

Verizon phones seem to be a little different.

Sent from my Jedi MasterX Note 2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] VaMaxx:
T-Mobile's wifi calling is implemented on the kernel level from what I understand. So you will need some sort of a T-Mobile ROM installed in order for it to work (I believe this has been done to the Verizon version of Note 3, G2, and supposedly the S4). I read somewhere that Jedi Master might be the best bet when it comes to having that feature working on the Note 2.

It is a bummer that most of the phones here on Craigslist are either Verizon, Sprint, or US Cellular, with a few AT&T here and there. No T-Mobile at all so it is all about flashing...:fingers-crossed:

AT&T Note i317. I just installed this rom and so far I love it except for one thing.

I can't get my gmail contacts to come down to the phone.

I cleared all data in the contact storage app in case something was hung up. I made sure synch is set to yes. I tried a manual synch. I have no idea what is going on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
You could try dirty flashing the rom.

And are you using x20 or masterX2?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mid_life_crisis:
x20.

I thought dirty flashing is a no-no, or is that only when changing roms?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ianchua:
You can dirty flash JMX2 over JX20.Its just like doing a regular software update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mid_life_crisis:
So are you suggesting I try the master version?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
I don't recommend dirty flashing a 4.3 ROM over a 4.1.2 ROM

Complete agreement with [MENTION=4981808]Ash359[/MENTION]. I would not suggest Dirty Flashing JMX2 over X20.

That just sounds like a recipe for disaster.

I definitely suggest moving to JMX2 though. But follow the directions, and CLEAN FLASH! BLEACH FLASH in fact.

Oh,Because I flashed MasterX and than X2 just over X20 with no issue..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mid_life_crisis:
For all the work involved, this JMX2 better be pretty phenomenal. If I'm reading the instructions correctly, I should go back to stock, upgrade to 4.3 factory rom, then scrub and install the JMX2.

What is a "bleach flash"?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
He just means to wipe thoroughly.

There is another option which is to flash a custom kernel instead of upgrading to stock.

I'm still on the old bootloader using Agni kernel with no real issues.

It's not the recommended method but it does work.

You can try many ways of installing JMX2 (Dirty Flashing over X20, Using a 4.1 bootloader and custom kernel, or following the Dev's recommendations) but you'll get the best support and results from following the Dev's recommended path for installation.

You just have to take it slow, and read (and understand e=what you are reading).

If you have questions about a specific step, just ask.

And don't forget to CHECK your MD5 values. Make sure the files you are trying to flash, are complete and uncorrupted.

First post

Hi all,

I just bought this used note 2 couple days ago and everything seems to be working ok. I was using a sensation 4g before this phone, so everything is new and better for me comparing to sensation 4g. I rooted my sensation 4g myself with cyanogenmod using the tutorial posted by the other developer, so I am still consider myself as new in this rooting process.

Back to the topic~

After first launch of my new used note 2, I notice right away this note 2 does not have the stock firmware since it did not show T-mobile logo after Samsung logo and it shows Jedi-X2 at bottom of the screen even after reset. It did not bother me at first since everything work just fine (as long as it makes calls, I can download app for play store, i can take pictures, I can check email and go on internet...etc) and I assume I just bought a rooted note 2, that's it. After talked to a tmobile store rep who seemed to be quite knowledgeable about rooting, he told me this phone is definitely rooted. But, when i am about to enjoy the benefit of a rooted phone, I found out that the root checker indicates it does not have proper access to the root and Titanium Backup also showing me it does not have the root access.

I was able to verify that it has CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.4-jb since I was able to go to the screen(volume up+home+power) where it let me choose if I want to install zip from sdcard, wipe data/factory reset...etc.

So, my question are:

1.) Is my note 2 rooted? If not completely rooted, at what stage is my note 2 in right now and what I need to do now to get it completely rooted?

2.) Although I am quite happy with my note 2 with 4.1,1 Jedi-X2 right now, I keep hearing KitKat is coming to note 2 and I am really tempting to upgrade to Kitkat. In my situation (my note 2 might not rooted properly), can I flash my note 2 back to T-mobile stock firmware using odin? I kind of want to try the origin stock firmware before I root it again later on. In other word, does my note 2 needs to be rooted in order to use odin to flash back to stock firmware and can I follow the "regular guide of using odin" to flash my note 2 or is there any special steps I need to do before I use odin?

Thanks in advance for all the inputs.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ianchua:
If root checker stated that you aren't rooted,Than its most likely so.

Grab the root package for your device > http://autoroot.chainfire.eu

All the best,And I suggest you to continue with JediMasterX2 as it has a lot of potential to be a good rom as it continues to be better

Take note:As [MENTION=1361191]zuckerj[/MENTION] mentioned a few post before this,The PDA tab on odin has been changed to AP which you use to flash a root package>CF Auto Root.Thank his post for this,I take no credit.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
Are you on Jedi x2 or Jedi MasterX 2?

Jedi X2 is a very old version, the latest version is X20 and it is no longer being updated.

Jedi MasterX 2 is android 4.3 and it is the latest Jedi ROM for the Note 2.

To update it is advisable to first flash the latest stock ROM to get the new bootloader.

However what many of us have done was to simply flash Jedi MasterX 2 and then the Agni Kernel.

I find it to be the best option, especially to start out. You can decide later if you want the new Knox bootloader but I haven't had an issue without it.

Here is the MasterX thread, I would subscribe to it.

Troubles

Ash,

Thanks for the input.

I "HAD" Jedi-X2.

After read Lanchua's post, I was itching to give it a try so I went ahead and used CF-Auto_Root. Everything went smoothly and I, as a newbie, somehow was able to have my note 2 rooted without any problem. This time root checker told me that my note 2 is rooted.

Everything was peachy till couple minutes after I rooted my note 2, I came across the cyanogenmod website and my hand got itchy again. I was using cyanogenmod on my old sensation 4g and got pretty used to it. Also, the whole process of installing cyanogenmod was all done automatically, so I went ahead and did it without the second thought. After boot it up, it does look quite familiar except I am no longer be able to use my s pen functions. OMG!!!

I really need your help now. How can I go back to Jedi MasterX2 or install a stock rom? Any step by step guide I can use? So I will know when to wipe cache, partition....etc.
