You may not have any issues. I know there are people using mj9 with 4.4.2 . I personally flash mc3 when I go to a 4.4.2 rom

---------- Post added at 10:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

And tgen if I go back to 4.3 I odin mj9
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Guys, if you don't know if you have the new firmware (to be able to run TW 4.3 roms), just do it. It is mandatory for beans 4.3. He'll say the same thing if you don't want issues. It should also work on aosp 4.4.x. If you're on 4.4.x, you still have to manually flash the new firmware. Simply being on a 4.4.x rom doesn't give you it. It's been a well covered topic, and we shouldn't waste his time with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LG13:
The baseband i flashed reads mj9 after i do a clean install of Beans 22 or CM11 and sticks. I haven't had any problems. I'm just curious as to if the firmware i flashed is different from the odin one. Or if i should expect a problem going from 4.4.2 or Beans 22.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
If you flashed just the MJ9 baseband via recovery, yes it is different (well, incomplete) from the one you flash in Odin. Basebands will stick between clean flashes.

Edit: you cannot flash the MJ9 firmware from recovery, only Odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Znomon:
Exactly Radios, Recovery, and Roms all must be applied separately.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LG13:
Just want to make sure dont need a bricked phone. Extract file with 7zip and place in the bootloader row in odin and then flash beans 23 with recovery?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jrbxx7:
Put in the pda slot in odin.... you can do it anytime. It works on 4.1.2. 4.3 or 4.4 I have ran all three on the mj9 baseband....

So I installed 4.3 firmware with Odin now I don't have data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] alphamale:
Try a reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] timmyd463229:
OK so I rebooted and I still don't have service I tried restoring my current ROM nothing I don't know what to do Now maybe install 4.3 ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thedoomster:
Try using the flashable version. That worked perfectly for me. I am also on b22.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RKmd:
I was on an AOSP ROM, Odin'ed the official 4.3 firmware posted by Beans, and lost connectivity. Flashed Alliance ROM and regained my connectivity. Flashing to one of the 4.3 ROMs should help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] LG13:
i ended up going back to 4.1.2 b/c i had the partial MJ9 modem. I think everything worked. At first odin said reset. I let it sit there for a moment unplugged it only after i unplugged it it said pass. Its showing I'm on MJ9 so i hope everything is ok. I have data and wifi

you can download the MC3 radio from this link here. flash it in recovery and you should get data back. of course youll need to odin MJ9 again when you flash build 23

I got data from flashing a 4.3 ROM but no WiFi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vlip3:
I know I'll probably get flamed for this stupid question but I don't think I'll be the first person (or the last) in this forum so here goes! What is the point of going to b23 if not for the Note 3 s-pen features? I've been on beans ROMs since I got my N2, currently on b22 and it is flawless and has everything I need yet I've been following this thread daily since the announced Verizon OTA (sometime around Thanksgiving if I remember) waiting for the much anticipated b23 only to find out it's not going to have N3 s-pen features (until later). That's really the main thing I want in a new ROM. Am I missing something?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shamestick:
In that case I would say Odin the firmware again, then boot into recovery and do a clean wipe and then install a 4.3 ROM again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeremiahEJ54:
b23 will be based on Android 4.3 instead of the previous version of Android but still "JellyBean", so certain things will be added or improved that came along with that update. That being said is doesn't move us along as far as AOSP based ROMs that should mostly be 4.4.2 "KitKat"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnwell:
Not a flammable question, but perhaps, if looking to 'upgrade' to Note3 features, N3BULA build 2 coming any time now and they have those features. I'm thinking of putting this Beans 23 on my wife's N2..cuz she likes colors...lol...but I'm putting N3bula build 2 on my N2. Well///that's the plan anyways. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Wynnded:
Just reboot the device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CLTnik:
I am still new to custom ROMs. So let me sure i understand. We need to use ODIN to flash the new firmware that beans will put out and then we can boot into recovery and install beans 23. Currently i am on beans 22 and have twrp recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] commiecat:
As was mentioned, it's a big jump in regards to the Android version. We'll be jumping two API levels going from 4.1.2 to 4.3: lock screen widgets (e.g. DashClock), Daydream screensaver, Miracast support, Bluetooth Low Energy (needed for Galaxy Gear), Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) 1.3 support, and various bug fixes and improvements.

You can see a detailed list of Android updates on Wikipedia here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history

Now I don't know what TouchWiz does to those, but the point is that we'll have a bunch of features added that are native to 4.3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pgzerwer:
The new firmware has been available for months (see OP for "Official 4.3").

Download that zip to your computer and unzip it. Get Odin on your computer (google is your friend). Put your phone in download mode (power phone down then restart holding power, home, and volume down button all at same time ). Connect phone to computer with USB cable, start Odin and wait to see indication Odin sees your phone. Then browse from PDA slot in Odin to the tar file that you unzipped earlier. Click start on Odin and wait for the magic to finish. Then you can flash any ROM you like through recovery. If coming from 4.1.2 you will want to wipe everything internal (some remove the external SD card to prevent accidentally wiping it) or you will have problems.

Enjoy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] timmyd463229:
OK got everything working I had to flash a 4.3 rom to use with the new firmware when I flashed the firmware with a 4.4.2 rom I lost data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CLTnik:
Thanks foe the explanation. The dont flash custom roms with odin once unlocked post is throwing me off. So you are pretty much saying that i need to use odin to go back to factory 4.3 then use twrp to flash beans 23? Can you please tell me where to download the official 4.3, cannot find it googling and searching xda, must not be using correct search words.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] spiff72:
I had similar issues. I could get no cell signal at all with 4.4 roms after I flashed the 4.3 firmware. I found that once I flashed the Beans 4.3 based "stock" ROM, this got my cell signal back. I then flashed a 4.4 rom and was able to get functioning radio (cellular and wifi).

Someone in the SlimKat thread suggested the flashing of the Beans 4.3 ROM - and it did the trick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] davidrhenry:
CLTnik

No, you will flash the ROM in recovery just like any other ROM. But since it is a major update you need to flash the firmware (which needs to be done via Odin) once you install the firmware via Odin you just boot into recovery and flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pgzerwer:
You aren't Odin flashing a ROM, just firmware. You aren't going "back" to anything, you just have to have that firmware to run Touchwiz 4.3.

I was running 4.4.2. Then flashed mj9 thorough odin and 4.3 touchwiz rom after that and let it boot. Didnt like the rom so went back to 4.4.2 with not a single issue.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Znomon:
He said he MAY release it early and somewhat unfinished just to get it out to us since we have been waiting for so long.

Can you guys stop clogging the thread with page after page of flashing the firmware? It's a waste of space and that issue belongs in general. Not in bean's rom thread. You're kicking a dead horse.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] timmyd463229:
I hear you man but it was in here that I was told to flash the firmware over my 4.4.2 rom because I had to then it messed up my phone so who else was I supposed to ask for help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
That's what the q and a section is for. Start a thread. I keep thinking this thread got an update and I see these same issues over and over. Not being mean, just stating a fact. This thread is growing in size for nothing relating to the rom. These are general problems.

This is not meant to be an argument as that will add more unnecessary posts. Please don't respond to this.

Ok, you want off topic/random posts. Here goes...

What was the first phone you ran a custom rom on and what rom was it? And how horrible was is compared to beans (keeps it related to the thread)?

I had the OG Droid and ran CM on it. For that phone it was awesome. Although compared to this phone running beans it is horrible. The OG droid was so damn slow.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eZdubzitmk4:
Optimus lol. Ran cm7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ufkal:
HTC Incredible 1. I ran early CM roms. Obviously not as good as Beans. But CM is a good rom..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] quantump8:
Droid X2, CM7. Worked like a champ for a while. Now the phone is my son's "tablet".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgyberg:
Droid X with Liberty! I had the OG Droid also and when I first played with an X at a vzw store I couldn't believe how much faster it was. So made the switch..

I started with the ppc6700, and Energyrom (I'm shocked I remembered that) then the 6800, touchpro, touchpro2, Evo4g, Evo3d, Galaxy S2, S3, and now the Note 2. Most were Asurion claims after the phones went EOL, or I knew they were out of replacements.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JSmoove3g4:
+1 big red makes me angry but its a lot better than other carriers that are available here. Once I decided to ditch htc I understood why the Sammy devices were so popular. Now the wife and I run beans on the note 2 and s3. Although I will admit I did have a moment where I almost bought the DNA. But after research this was the obvious winner
