Apn question

Does 25 allow for multiple APN numbers? I see where adrenlyne and imnuts had a way to do this back in late 2012. I'm afraid to mess with the settings on my phone even though it looks possible. I'm thinking of spending some time in Mexico later this year. I know I have to get a prepaid sim, but I believe i need to change the APN info as well.

Are there any kind souls who have done this already? Thanx in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dhouston10:
OK guys. This is the color issue I'm having. I have the text set to white, with the in-app menu unchecked. As seen in the first pic, text like that are unreadable. I don't know if it's headers or what. If I set text to black, it makes the text from the first pic visible, but makes main menu, sub menus, Power menu, etc, text black and unable to read. The Alliance Manager app, as suggested, isn't the answer I'm looking for, as you can only download someone else's theme or upload your own. Anyone have an answer for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bucwylde23:
I had the same problem. I wish the 2 weren't linked. I just had to set a color in between so I could see both.

Has anyone tried the screen mirror using the Netgear PTV3000? Every time I try to connect, my phone locks up. I have to pull the battery to gain control again. Tried the samsung mirror patch fix. Still no luck.

But my wife's s3 will work perfect. And it has the 4.3 update.

Please lmk if someone had theirs working. Didn't know if it had something to do with the ROM. Would hope not. Thanks!

How do you set up wifi tether apk for this rom? Ive change everything multiple times in the app setting and not a single device picks it up

May just be me but when I hit the home key on the lock screen and then hit it twice more (s voice) I get a reboot. Noticed it by accident and I doubt anyone would run into it and it may just be me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] satchko:
Is there any way to control the apps in multi-window? The edit button functionality is pretty buggy. I also tried through Wanam's edit multiwindow apps setting. I checked off the ones I wanted but It didn't work. Couldn't find my com.flashbarservice file (to try and clear data for it) either. Supposed to be in /android/data, right?

Anyways...would just like to know the current best way to go about editing the apps in multiwindow.

One other thing--- Is there a way to color the multiwindow handle / Power Menu (besides the text/icons). Really loved how these looked on the 4.1 based versions.

Anyways, keep up the great work.

Anyone know how to get rid of the "A" for Alliance on the notifications bar?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dikkebas:
See if this works: check it, restart sysui, uncheck restart sysui again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] downhillvinnie:
aaaaah got it, thanks man.....how about the big Alliance "A" in the notifications bar, anyone way to get rid of that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dikkebas:
You got a screen? Not sure what you are calling a notifications bar, for all I know you are refering to Alliance battery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] torr310:
It's the battery level indicator.

You can change it by going to

Settings --> Custom Settings -->ROM Control --> Status Bar and Toggles --> Statusbar options --> Battery options -->Select battery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] downhillvinnie:
oooh didnt know that was a battery icon,,,,got rid of it

I did a dirty Flash to build 25 and now my bluetooth buttons for music control aren't working but all of the other buttons are working just fine and I can accept call and use my headset without a problem. Any ideas

Try clean flash if you have issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr Bud:
I flashed 25 coming from 24.i selected aosp text messaging just like I had in build 24. Now when ever I open up my texts I get the message not sent error. If I remember right in order to fix it do I have to do a complete wipe reinstall? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
Does anyone use screen mirroring?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] -Alan:
The only thing I mirror is movies and pics. And I use allcast for that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dillonorden:
Has anyone tried the mobile hotspot app with the no provisions or how to set up the wireless tether app on this build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
I just tried AllCast and it wouldn't recognize the NetGear push2Tv box.

But I'm trying to get it connected to do the same for the movies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
I used the built-in tethering for a few hours this morning with no problems.

Whenever I flash a new build, I go into Settings > More Settings > Mobile Hotspot > Configure. I set the network name up that I want, set the password up, & I'm good to go. From then on, I can just use the tethering toggle to turn it on & off.

Does anyone know how to get multiview blacklist to work. Apps are still showing up. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dillonorden:
Have you ever been charged for it or lost unlimited data? I still have unlimited data and im extremely cautious about it so I dnt lose it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] -Alan:
No
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
Nope. Still have it. Never charged extra.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dillonorden:
Cool. By my understanding the no provisions is baked into build 25 right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
Well, I restored my Build 23(4.1.2 rom) and my mirroring works. So there is something on this build that is screwy. Anyone have build 25 using mirroring? If so, what kernel are you using?

Thanks!

This is the only thing that I know that had a hickup on this ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] -Alan:
What are you using to mirror?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
The built in screen mirroring. And I tried AllShare as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DoubleL03:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Goldie:
This is 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbrinnny:
The version of android affected is 4.1.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
Ok. Got my fix. The agni kernel was locking my phone up. I tried the newest agni version as well. But reflashed the rom, used stock kernel and no problem. Mirroring works like a champ!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] statustray:
Glad to hear that you got things resolved. I am running stock kernel too and only on occasion do I have a issue mirroring to my Samsung smart TV. The issue creeps in sometimes for me when streaming a movie. I sometimes get wifi unstable message.

Is there an AllianceRom for the galaxy note 2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] commiecat:
Did you mistype something or leave out some info? This is the thread for AllianceROM on VZW's Galaxy Note II. Check first post for downloads and info.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Perry2547:
I've been using the search function but can't seem to locate this Rom for the n7105 or i317.

Do you know if it's available for these models?

SIAP, but does everyone else get a crash when going into settings>more settings>data usage or when clicking on the roaming notification after going to an area with poor signal?

Also, sorry if I missed this but can anyone else add APNs or is there another mod needed for that?

No need to search. Just go to the threads already set up for that device & check there.

I'm getting an unlocked Vz Note 2, with stock 4.1.1 installed. I've been searching for an hour, can't find the answer. Where do I place the MJ9 firmware in Odin to flash before installing this rom? (I'm assuming MJ9 needs to be flashed in Odin, and the Rom needs to be flashed in recovery)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thechaoz:
Where are you getting this phone? Don't tell me vzw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bovineyard:
I bought on eBay. Just need to know how to install the MJ9 firmware. Already unlocked and rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
1) Download Odin here and unzip it http://d-h.st/s6I

2) Download MJ9 here and unzip it http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319198557

3) Launch Odin and put MJ9 into PDA slot

4) Turn off phone. Launch into download mode by holding home/down volume/off buttons simultaneously. Then it will ask you what to do, press up volume to go to download mode. Plug into USB port. You may need to install phone drivers here http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I605ZWAVZW

5) After Odin recognizes phone, start flashing process (takes 10 seconds). Reboot phone into normal phone mode.

6) Go to Settings>About and check if Baseband Version says I605VREUMJ9

7) Flash away & donate to Alliance for building a kick-ass ROM. ☺

Yelp issue?

Hi, I think this is probably the Yelp's issue, but I encounter problem cannot uninstall Yelp. I rarely use Yelp and I don't know how I run into this problem though.

The situation is that I put my phone aside and suddenly I saw it rebooting with very slow motion boot animation. It acted very slow after bootup. So I pulled the battery and run into the recovery, trying to clean the Dalvik and cache, then I see the message as the first attachment.

I reboot the phone anyway. The phone didn't act slow this time, so I go into app manager trying to uninstall Yelp. The first thing I noticed is the large amount of the cache. I tried to clean it without success. "Clean Data" didn't work. "Uninstall" stays at the uninstalling page.

Could this issue be solved without wiping the data? Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] christianelizaga:
Still doesnt work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] amoot329:
Just making sure, you said you're using the latest version. The touchwiz version right? I had to download the correct one because I was using the KitKat version before with aosp Roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] killa408shark:
I had a similar issue with a different app don't remember which one. But I couldn't restore my back ups even wiping internal SD the error was still there. I searched on Google and the only option was "format data" just make sure you back everything

Ok I have a very very annoying bug.

Am on build 25, and recently I noticed that am booting up my phone ñ phone takes hell a lot of time to boot up. It boots, shows my home screen, then start booting again showing my home screen and the sequence continues for more than 5 times. Am using the GPE BOOT animation and I don't know the cause of this. Also my keyboard lags behind input when typing and the overall rom isn't as responsivene as it once was. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

More than likely a widget...I had the issue and it ended up being Google news and weather...once I stopped using it and cleared cache I no longer had this issue.

Was wondering if you are going to make a safestrap version of this rom? I was running this rom before my phone got updated through a misshap. I'm on Trents rom (Safestrap) download right now and it's a great rom, just doesn't have the customization yours has.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DJLamontagneIII:
Works with SS just select stock kernel during installation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PopzTopz:
I'm running ss with this rom typing this from my phone, ss does work with the limitations of having to flash over stock slot (other slots are not working yet) and having to use stock kernel (select stock kernel in aroma options). Runs fine for me. I just made a nandroid of stock just in case and you can restore if need be. No need for a "safestrap" version, I flashed build 25 as is...

Thanks. I thought that was the way but wanted a verification from someone with a bit more experience than myself. I am used to flashing the old way when I was unlocked but am new to safestrap and even newer to the modded note 2 way.

Advice

I am still running Beanstown build 22. It is so stable...awesome battery life.

Those who have moved to Alliance, it the rom stable? How is battery life?

twrp bootloop

Guys anyone know how I can install the latest twrp? I installed alliance 25 with no problem. I then went into recovery because I wanted to install the rom again with some different options but the twrp screen just keeps blinking and doesn't let me get into recovery. I was using an old version of twrp, hadn't updated it in probably a year so wondering if that is what happened? Any suggestions? Been googling but not sure if there is an easier way to go about this without having to flash all the way back to stock with odin and starting over.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Saleian:
You can try to flash with the rom customizer or flashify
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] arty2hottie:
Whats the rom customizer? Thanks for the response

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ----------

I googled it. Doesnt that have to be on the phone? I cant get into anything. It just goes immediately to the twrp screen and keeps blinking and not letting me into recovery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Saleian:
Oh i see. You might have to wipe the slate clean with odin and then update twrp and then rom. I would be stuck aswell if i was in your situation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
The ROM Customizer version isn't the latest version. If you can't even get into your older TWRP to flash the .zip, you could always flash the .tar file using Odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Saleian:
Yeah that is probably the best way to go about it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
You have ROM Customizer on your device. It's in your Settings menu right under Custom Settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] arty2hottie:
So I take Allaince 25 and install it through pda on odin? Thanks guys. Im an idiot. Geesh I should have just left it alone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Saleian:
I would download the .tar for twrp and flash that with odin updating your recovery. Then check to see if your recovery is fixed and then use that for rom or whatever else you were trying to do
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
If you want to be able to customize your rom to totally fit your personality and don't like a cookie cutter rom like every one else with your phone is running, than this is worh the install. I wish I had your phone and still had an unlocked bootloader so I could also use the kernel choice included in this rom instead of stock kernel but I'm just glad that Hash and Beans put together a safe strap version that let's me enjoy this rom.

Beans and the Alliance team out did their selves on this build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Can I flash this via TWRP if I'm already on a build of the rom? Or do I still have to go through Odin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rabbid10:
You must Odin the firmware if you haven't already and then you can flash as you normally would. Otherwise things like WiFi won't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vampiricsoul:
I finally got my phone to boot all the way up. I had to take my sd card out and put 24 on it and it flashed fine. Now I'm afraid to flash 25 clean or dirty.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Ah thanks. I've already got the MJ9 modem on here, so I'll give this a shot!

Another question: Is there a way to get "pulsing" notification lights on this rom? I feel like I've been able to before, but I don't recall.

Also, how would I go about changing the DPI on the notification bar? Both when it's closed as well as when it's open? The toggles are just a little too big for me.

Thanks! Great work!

SCH-1605 Instructions coming from 4.1.2 and Jellybeans build 22.

The following instructions (assuming load MJ9 on my Samsung Note II SCH1605 via Odin 3.09):

Step 1-

Install the 4.3 MJ9 Firmware file via odin

Ok.. exactly how?

a) Load the toltevzw_mj9_official_firmware.tar as BOOTLOADER, PDA, PHONE FILE, OR CSC FILE?

1) Specific Steps to load MJ9 Correctly?

b) Expected Results?

Step 2-

Make Sure You Have a Custom Recovery

Custom Recovery? You mean a backup ROM? or TWRP?

Step 3-

Wipe all(factory reset and davlick wipe) if coming from an old build

Ok.. I did this before with TWRP and loaded a custom ROM Jellybeans: note2_Jellybeans_B22.zip

Step 4-

Install the Rom

OK. no problem.. I did this before with Jellybeans in TWRP.

Step 5-

Enjoy!!

Not yet.. but getting there.

Haven't heard major complaints about the Alliance ROM and look forward to customizing this Note II from VZ once more. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Load MJ9 modem it as PDA.

Yes. I use TWRP. Some people use ClockworkMod

Yes, there is an option to "Factory Data Reset" in the Wipe area of TWRP

Yup, after you Factory Data Reset, go to Install, select the zip, and go.

build 26?

There has been no news on build 26 for over 2 weeks. Just wondering how it's coming and if we could get some teasers on the new features. Have been using Beans Roms since the early builds. I have tried most of the roms and still come back to this rom. Great work team!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
It's only been about a month since b25 came out.. I'm sure beans is working on fixes and I won't speak for him but since 25 does so much already I wouldn't expect a new release anytime soon.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Quoting this for visibility. Anyone? I love pulsing notification lights, one of the only things I like about AOSP over Touchwiz.

Also, my phone isn't recognized on my computer now? I can see it via USB, even though the drivers are there. I've tried chaning to MTP, and debugging is on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
I have pulsing notification lights. It is an option with AGNi Kernel. He calls it "LED Fading".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Oh cool, thanks. Can I change kernels to that after I already have the rom running, or does that require a new, clean installation?

Ok, seriously, what the hell. Everything was working perfectly on this rom, then I tried flashing a themed contacts zip.. it start constantly giving me com.process.acore errors every second or two.. so I booted to TWRP, formatted data, factory reset, wiped cache, reinstalled, and on the VERY FIRST welcome screen, I'm instantly getting "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped."

What the ****? This was working perfectly for me until this morning!

And now my texts aren't sending. HOW can it be this broken suddenly from a CLEAN, NEW INSTALL!

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
