Thanks Beans
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KilgoreBA:
I tried this but even with this dialer, when you are in call, the device still uses the stock dialer for when you need to dial numbers during a call and therfore cuts off the 0, #, and * keys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
I also used to work for Verizon. There is no option to add to a customers account to throttle. I have the grandfathered unlimited plan and do pay the additional 30 dollars a month and use 50 to 60 gigs a month due to netflix. I could take the 30 dollar tether off and use Trevor s hotspot and vzw probably never know. I just prefer to play it safe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dornstar:
Sorry if I missed this being covered...

I just flashed this going through all the steps and I can't get past the Samsung Galaxy Note II boot screen. Waited about 20 minutes, reflashed it again and got the same thing.

Any advice?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
I believe the version of Odin I used was 3.7, but the latest should be fine, the latest twrp version on their website is fine and should work great with this ROM as I flashed with it.

Basically to Odin the firmware, put your phone into download mode [home, power, volume down] and connect your phone to your computer and let it detect the device, then the firmware you downloaded is used by odin.

I can't fully remember how to use odin, so you should check around the forums a bit or maybe someone that does will pop up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
odin

The way i understood it Odin v 3.9 and 3.7 are for the note 2. The other verions are for other phones.

Yes flash MJ9.

here is a simple video to follow on using odin, it provides a link to ODIN 3.9, just remember to use OP link for MJ9 firmware NOT the link in the video, video is about n7100 not OUR i605, dont be confused, the rest is the same. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxgQMmd3gmI

Yes you need to update TWRP the newest is version 2701 http://teamw.in/project/twrp2

yes you can get the zip file and update in your recovery, or you can odin the tar

The rom will flash a new Kernel, if you want to run a different kernel you will need to reflash it after your done setting up the rom

I think kitkat is much snappier, it might be worth going to 4.3 simply to get this stuff behind you so if a 4.4 release comes you can more easily just flash it, or you can wait.

It is recomended to update the TWRP FIRST, then make a nandroid back up to an SD card, back up your EFS as well, and copy that back up to the computer, before you begin with all the fun flashing, that way if you do screw it up, you can always put it back how it is now easier.

Hope that helps.

Thank you SO much my friend! Answered everything I needed to know perfectly. Gonna go ahead and give this a shot tomorrow I think. Thanks again!

So does anyone have issues with the shutter sound not disabling? I have it set to off and it still makes the sound when I take a photo.

Has anyone tried devil kernel with this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drecu:
Anyone experiencing crazy lag when updating apps in the play store? It gets so bad you cannot do anything with the phone so I have to turn off auto updating. I am using beans stock modified kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jrkelley14:
Does anyone know the recommended approach for re-flashing MJ9 radio firmware? I've been running fine for months on MJ9 and many of the Roms listed in these forums (alliance being the trust-iest) but my GPS recently has acted up and barely works now...hardly ever gets a lock and I've tried all the wipes and kernels and rom re-installs but still nothing. Only thing I can figure now is the radio has somehow been corrupted when it comes to the GPS unless my GPS hardware module has gone bad somehow.

Do I just odin MJ9 again....can't find good info on reloading this.

Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gahh Its Lee:
Having the same exact issue. Not sure what to do about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Look in the custom settings and hot to rom customizer and choose ota, you will find the radio.zip there and flash it, it should work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thechaoz:
I have this with beans 22
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mac of York:
My wife was having these same issues -- I flashed the radio and it seems okay now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drecu:
Yeah. I'm on build 26. Evrythng works great but as soon as it starts updating it pretty much disables the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
The reason I stopped using this room as a daily diver. I actually went to slim room for a while since the 4.3 Rom's all acted this wsu for me, only "fix" was basically use trickster and put phone in performance mode and change minimums cpu to a high value, battery life suffers greatly, 4.4.2 KitKat Rom's seem much snappier and don't require performance mode to be smooth. I'm now on R3Ds1.8 and am very happy so far. I understand KitKat was developed so it could be used even on older slower phones, it shows. Of corse the mods and fancy mostly isn't there yet on KitKat but every xposed mod I've tried works fine so I can still customize most things I like.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Yes.. I have actually reverted to running Odin several times to get back to square one and have tried several diferrent roms. I am currently on build 25 alliance. I am going to refrain from installing Xposed Installer this time and just use the mods that come witht the rom. Im hoping this fixes the issue. Im one of the unlucky ones witht the locked MJ9 bootloader and am running Safestrap as a reovery of sorts. I cant wait till they fix the rom slots, I think that wouldd solve alot of issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] izzycade:
seeing the news that Verizon will be releasing the 4.4.2 KK update soon for the note 2, does this mean this ROM will update as well. Also, I am on SS... will I be able to use the ROM if it goes to KK?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
I would only hope that Mr.Beans would update after the KK release. Have had nothing but great results from his work.

The Old One
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I'm guessing that those of us that are on safe strap will have to wait for a safe strap update to 4.4.2 in order to run any of those roms. I hate Verizon and their locked bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] izzycade:
Thats what I feared...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Just loaded build 26 again to see if the drop down wallpaper issue had disappeared and it is still present. As soon as I pick the drop down background option it force closes it saying that back ground image has quit, or something like that. I like the other improvements though, so I'm gonna rock with 26. I just use gravity box to get my drop down wallpapers again. Nice build Beans.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dkool1:
I had the same problem. I thought is was a bad d/l of the ROM, but after searching this thread I find out if you open Alliance Manager, it will create a folder that is apparently missing. This worked for me. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Got a link to R3D I can't find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
So you just open the alliance folder and it will automatically create what I need? I will give it a try as it is a very simple fix.

---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

Outstanding.. I can't believe it was that easy to fix. Thank you for the tip to fix this. I just Uninstalled gravity box to make sure that it was the open folder fix and it still works and doesn't force close. Nice....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dkool1:
You're welcome. Sunday I installed this ROM 3 times trying to fix this problem. Then I just did another search and found the fix.

I was running SR REMIX & decided to give this ROM a try. Must say that I do like it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dillonorden:
Best rom I have ever ran. Love the speed n smoothness. Was running as my D.D but I was ready to have 4.4 so I flashed something else sorry beans. Would love to see this rom on 4.4 and have more S5 options. Hope you continue development on this rom. Again many thanks beans for the best rom ever
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
I see other ROMs claiming to have "official 4.4.2". Did Verizon actually release 4.4.2 yet?

The Old One
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pgzerwer:
Yep.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
It's listed in op of GPS fix kk port thread. Right now you might as well wait another week or so I think they will make a stellar Verizon stock kk base deodex nox removed s5/n3 options Rom now that they have the official Rom rooted. I can barely wait.

---------- Post added at 08:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 AM ----------

Google is your friend. The ota updates are now live from Verizon, several people have reported getting it early on now it's lots of people reporting getting it. As usual we Verizon useRs are behind the times as now Google launched 4.4.3 on their devices... typical, by the time Samsung then Verizon have their way with it we will get it in 6 months to a year.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Cool sounds like the 4.4.3 my buddy on at&t is running, ezkat.

Hopefully when we get the update someone fixes the awful and ugly messaging app.

I have a vrtheme pack for the s4 messaging app if anyone is willing to add the bubbles and backgrounds, set us up with a smaller default font. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheMyth:
Better late than never!! Hopefully Mr.Beans and the rest of the Alliance crew can and are able to update and get a flawless merge like they always do.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] savaytse66:
I hate to be that guy...On a very new, very clean install of 26, I am getting the "AllianceROM setting has stopped" error. I've tried clearing data for AllianceROM Setting several times, with and without reboot. I will try a dirty flash, but in the meantime, is there something else that could be causing it? I checked SuperSU to make sure that AllianceROM setting has root permissions, and it does.

This is a new phone (well, used, but new for us) and the first time I've done an install on Safestrap. Could this be the cause?

EDIT: Dirty flash fixed it. Go figure...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chumboy:
Hello beans,

currently have Verizon Note 2 wroth AllianceROM.

I've tried dozens of roms over the years and alliance is the best. Want to stay with it for many years.

Is there an alliance rom for the Verizon Note 3?

Will there be an alliance rom for the Verizon Note 4?

Alliance & Note. ..... The ultimate!

Thanks beans!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vampiricsoul:
Every time I open Alliance Manager and try to choose a theme it force closes. Any fix to this ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dr. Droidberg:
Obviously I'm not [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION], but the best place to check on ROMs for the Verizon Note 3 is the Verizon Note 3 development forums.

As far as anyone planning on developing for a Note 4, I would imagine it would depend on how locked down Samsung & Verizon make it. Considering the way they have been with the Note 2-3 & S4-5 lately, I would say it depends on if someone gets Safestrap working on them too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] *Hooligan*:
I believe the fix was to delete the alliance folder with root explorer and reboot. The folder will then be recreated after boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
It is, then open the app again no reboot needed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I'm still finding cool features in this room and I've been running it for a while now. Best rom ever.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Hey beans I'm going to either upgrade or get geek squad to replace my note 2, I've got slave super low price of free + shipping for my note 2 l lol :) I just drunkenly dropped it for the 30th time and cracked the screen on the right top corner, but it should help you out if I can keep it and send it to you bud :)

I'm hoping to keep it and send it to you, but I might have to upgrade to a lg g2 since it is free and a tits phone, but if you want it to continue your amazingly great note 2 love and support PM me a address to ship it to and as soon as I get a replacement note 2 or upgrade I'll send it right out, I just hope I can get some love on whatever device I land on with that beans goodness. Oh And If You Have Time Answer The PM I Sent You Earlier, Not Sure Why It IS Capping Every Word now....

Just found out to get geek squad coverage you have to get your phone from them, so probably going to get a upgrade or look into other places, more likely the upgrade to a lg g2, it's the best they have for free and they don't carry the note 2 at Verizon anymore.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] savaytse66:
Looks like Beans is officially moving on and dropping support for our Note 2. It's been a good run: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=53460935. Thanks to Beans and the Alliance team, as this ROM has been my DD since I got my phone. I'll be sticking with it, but keeping an eye out for KK development at the same time since I am not ready to give up this phone!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
I'm stating simply these have all been stable for me, I have been running dn3 since the day came out other than a whole day testing successfully the stock deodex version. Before that I was terrible free on reds since it came out..

Everyone is asking so in fear of envoking wrath of devs who seemed to have moved on I will tell you what I've had success with.

Stock. Yeah. It's ugly and boring but it's working correctly stable and KitKat...

Puritan I'll ask you since you use dn3 as a daily driver.... Does that rom have the Exchange Server Security bypass on it? I looked pretty well on that thread and didn't see it listed anywhere.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
I am sorry I do not use that, and do not know, nor could I confirm if the xposed version works on this Rom. I only check my work email at work these days toO stressful otherwise. Sorry. No idea. The original dn3 thread had over the million posts finding it in there can be a challenge even for a pro searcher. :-\
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] crash613:
Thanks for that... After being on beans since day one of my note 2 ownership, it looks like I'll be moving on. Going to look at DN 3.

Truth is, I would have bailed earlier but I stuck around hoping beans would go back to the signature look that made me love it in the first place. . I was never too fond of the tweak every freaking color thing.... That is not to say that I am not grateful for all the hard work they put into it, because I am very grateful.

Thanks for everything! And good luck, and who knows, when I upgrade I may find that I can go back to a beans rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Thanks for the list, I guess since beans is done with the note 2 I'll just keep mine and fix the screen or laminate it...

I was hoping beans would be around on this device for a long time I've come to love his work over any other note 2 dev I have sampled the work of since he left the stock look option available and made great roms.

Think I'll give the ditto devs a shot and maybe wanam it up again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hindle1225:
My recommendation would be the Nebula 4.4.2 when it comes out of beta testing. I've been using Nebula for months. There has been about 4 updates after the ROM I currently use. Its been so stable I've had no reason to update.

Not sure what I did wrong, but using safestrap I ended up with a black screen after the safestrap logo, whether I chose recovery or boot. I ended up having to restore MJ9 with odin to get it back up.

Does it work with safestrap? Do specific options have to be used? Or can I only write it over the stock rom? I installed it in a new rom slot...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] savaytse66:
You have to use the stock ROM slot. The other slots do not work for our phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] crash613:
just switched to another rom and I am missing something from Beans. On Beans when you went to install an apk i used to get the option to install with installer (which is the standard one) and there was another option to install with an alternate installer. This one let me install as a system app. Any idea if that program is available separately? I have searched the google store for system installer but i could not find the one that is in the beans rom.

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Beans saw one of my posts, so if he wants my note 2 when I choose my upgrade phone, you guys can stop worrying, from what he already said he was dropping support for the lack of having a note 2 to dev with.

If things work out I suspect everyone will be happy again :rolleyes:

I'm just hoping I pick a good upgrade, the lg g2 is free and a nice phone... The s5 and n3 cost 200 still... so help me figure this out guys and the faster I get my upgrade chosen the faster beans can get back to work :)

I don't want to be stuck with Verizon another 2 years, so I might use my old phone until the end of the year and figure it out later...

I might get a s4 or s5 if I stick with Verizon, how beans does a rom for them.

Had the Note2 since it came out. Was running Goodness until I found Alliance. Wow, is all I can say. It just might be the perfect phone for me.

I got the S5 for 2 days and returned it (BL issues). Played with my friends Note3, but couldn't pull the trigger.

Each time, I came back to Note2 with Alliance rom.

Within the Verizon sphere, this will probably be the last phone to have it's BL unlocked.

Sad there won't be a 27 release, but 26 on a Note2 simply cannot be beat. IMHO.
