11 Mbps speaks for itself. 3g will do 2 max

well, i just hit 2.7 on 3g on my 900p using a vzw prl
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Not bad, I'm not in the best area to get full bars with both tests I've done, but with one bar... also upload speeds are important.

I have seen 4g before it was active for a lot of people get 30mbps from tampa, seems slower here in Seattle area.

Can't complain much anymore, a cool actual good verizon rep set me up with discounts and a great plan 85 a month for 2 phones 3gb data and another got me 2gb bonus for 12 months, more than I'll ever use, but basically paying 50 a month for my note 2.

Perks of being a customer for almost 4 years I guess or it was to shut me up lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] alarmo:
Can I get v26 and how do you downgrade?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fallen00sniper:
Pretty much the same way you upgrade, flash the rom, I would use the return to stock method, unlock and then flash v26, you can find odin and v26 under my website address in my profile.

Then return to stock thread is sticker and you can also find the Odin files for that in my repository as well, you must use the original android version your device came with when using odin to go back.

I loved this ROM when I had a Notell as a daily driver. I have a Note 3 now. I want re-purpose my Note II as a Tablet/MP3 player. Can this ROM be debloated even further or can resources be freed up for it to have more RAM and speed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] The:Dude:
Multi window issue

I'm having an issue with adding items to the multi window sidebar. If I'm adding an item from the first 26 apps listed it's fine, but if I go down and try to add, say Pandora it instead ads the app from the first set that corresponds with the screen placement of the Pandora icon..

For instance, the top line in the app list ends with Auralux in the to right corner, if I scroll down so that the Pandora app icon is in the top right corner, then drag it to the sidebar it adds Auralux instead.. same thing happens if I scroll down 3 screens, or 4 lines.. Does that make any sense?

Is there an XML file, or some other file I can edit to manually put the apps I want in the sidebar?

Other than this minor issue, I'm happy with Alliance! Now I just wish a miracle would happen and somebody finds a way to unlock the bootloader lol..

I'm glad I could help! Love this ROM, and my note 2! I actually prefer my 2 over my wife's note 5 lmao
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
i'm still new to my Note 2.. so i'm trying to figure out how this works... My Note 2 is on MC3 firmware ( so i'm able to unlock and flash roms )... I may want to try this ROM.. I see it says to flash the MJ9 firmware.. which i believe has a locked bootloader. So does that mean i would have to lock my bootloader and use the safestrap hack in order to flash this ROM?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jaws4God:
well i installed this ROM with MC3 firmware... so far so good.. just need to wait on a SIM card from the service provider to go live.. but love the features and how it runs so far.. has the stock features of Touchwiz that i wanted plus customizable so I can add features i use daily. Thank you!

Just wish they had Notification Light modifications... ;)

Thank you! I loved this rom on my Note 2. I recently got a free line at T-Mobile, so I'm tinkering. I want to see if I can get this phone to work on T-Mobile. I know it'll be missing some bands, but should work for voice and hspa data at least.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] The:Dude:
No problem.. Glad I could help and my hoarding came in handy! ? Good luck with it on t mobile.. How'd you manage a free line anyway? My note 2 killed itself one night a few months back.. Was outside after work playing some music.. Working fine one minute, rebooting the next and stuck on the splash screen.. Somehow everything got wiped, I can get into download mode, but Odin tells me to get bent, I can get into the (somehow stock now) recovery, but it says there's no filesystem to write to.. I didn't have a lot of time to mess with it, so I just got a used Note 3 instead.. But man do I miss Alliance..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dunadan268:
Can anyone post a working download link for build 26?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dunadan268:
For anyone interested, I searched for many many hours on XDA for a working download link, and eventually I found that fallen00sniper has a working download link, plus many other helpful files for the Verizon Note2 SCH-i605 at his homepage.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Telemachus:
yesterday was my first full day using this rom since getting the phone on Christmas. Ran GPS all day long, and plenty of movies. Ran it all the way down to 5 percent battery. Charge the phone for 6 hours overnight, and in the morning, was only up to 60 percent!

is there a different kernl I need to look out for better charging?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bendystrawboy:
First few charges are slow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Are you charging with the plug that came with the phone. Next time you charge check to see if it says ac charge or usb charge
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Telemachus:
no, it is not the stock charging cable. Is it third party cable. Hopefully that is the problem. how can you tell if it is AC or USB?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thunderbread:
Is there any way to get just a black backgroud in the app drawer. Or maybe a way to let me set seperate wallpaper for homescreen and app drawer?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] minazaki:
GN2 uses 2A charger. Your third party charger is probably 1A. The GN2 is trying to draw 2A and can't. Use stock plug/cable, or buy a third party 2A micro usb charger.

Weird request. I unlocked and rooted my sister's Note 2 and flashed Beans V4.Her only question for me... "Where's that cool Verizon boot screen?" Yes, I did fall on the floor.

I searched but couldn't seem to find an answer -- when I pull out the S-Pen using Nova Launcher, the phone vibrates as normal but the PageBuddy screen for the S-Pen doesn't appear. I have PageBuddy enabled. Am I missing something, or do I need to switch to TouchWiz launcher for this functionality?

Btw awesome rom...didn't think I could love this phone any more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Telemachus:
My clear notifications button is missing half of the time. I reset the phone and it comes back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
Yes, you need Twiz launcher. Am I alone in really disliking those Page Buddy things? Maybe if they were more customizable.

It's an xml edit in the systemui. I can probably do one for you guys tomorrow. I'm on my phone now, and can only share the link with my purple theme and 50 percent transparent. Tomorrow I can do it for stock if there is interest.

Im definitely interested in it, I appreciate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] artjrv:
I just downloaded and installed rom and its running great so far! I just have two quedtions.

When I reboot into download mode....it simply does a standard reboot....I have no download mode. Is this nomal?

And also does google wallet operate with this rom? If so can someone point me in direction of any setup?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
I had the same issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Telemachus:
Wallet is working fine. We the thread in the QandA section.

Also, Rom manager now officially supports CWM flashing I believe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dornstar:
Alright, went back to stock to start the process over again.... I rooted and unlocked. Flashed this ROM. Once again, I'm stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Note II boot screen again. Can't seem to figure out what I'm missing.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SOTK:
Have you tried re-downloading the Rom and checking the md5? You may have gotten a bad download.

if you share this, I think, at least for a few minutes, my phone would be PEEERRRRFEEECT!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilPan:
Here is the 50 percent transparent purple theme. Make sure to back up first as always.

I tested on my phone and all seemed good; but if something breaks its on you.

http://db.tt/y7deMuuk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] georgepink:
Thanks and Thanked! If you have time, sometime, would you share how you did it, or post one that does not include a theme? I have searched for how to's and it seems rather over my head, but just not really 'into' purple. my daughter would laugh at me. I'll bu and try it, though. thanks again

Again, thank you for sharing, but I lost my status bar completely. could be something I did wrong. I wiped cache and dalvik, then applied theme. just an fyi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilPan:
Later today I'll do stock. I got to deal with my kids for a few hours then I'll be able to get things done.

Did you flash the purple? Did it work ok?

How can you not like the purple? Real men wear purple! Lol.

I'm more drawn to BLACK, for some reason....bike is black, truck is black...wife is not (2 out of 3 aint bad)

Out of nowhere I am getting a voicemail notification that I can't clear. Everytime I restart the phone it comes right back.

Any ideas?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilPan:
I really don't get it. I don't understand why status bar is going missing. I flash on mine with no problem. Maybe it's because I did a dirty flash? And I pulled the systemui from my phone. Instead of using the one from the file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mwshows:
I've had this problem before and it had always turned out to be a GV problem and not something with the rom. If you get on a computer and sign into GV that way, go in and clear all your messages, clean out the trash folder and any other non essential folders as well. AFTER THAT, on the phone clear data for GV app (i also usually take the time to clear all cache & dalvik too).

Personally I've had more problems with GV app since jelly bean came out. Right now for instance after about a week of use, I have deleted voicemails showing back up in my inbox with no way to delete them again from the phone app. I have to clear them from a desktop.

Send me your systemui and I will edit that. Then there is no reason why it shouldn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] SOTK:
I had this situation happen to me one time when I wiped my phone and installed a Rom. I don't remember how it happened exactly but I think my curiosity got the best of me, and I checked my old verizon voicemail before setting up GV. This screwed up the GV forwarding in addition to leaving me a verizon voicemail icon I couldnt clear since I now had GV installed. I ended up uninstalling GV, going back to verizon voicemail, removed the GV forwarding, went into verizon voicemail and cleared messages, and lastly reinstalled GV and set up GV forwarding again. That did the trick.

*** disable home button wake ***

Just thought I'd share this, use it at your own risk cause I am no programmer. I know a few people in this thread had asked for this and I wanted it too so I Googled and found this on another XDA thread for the SIII. Being they are so close I tried it and it appears to work fine. Just the file name was named differently but I fixed it in these instructions.

open root explorer

navigate to : system/usr/keylayout

now press the mount r/w button near the top of screen to enable read and write permissions

scroll down to: gpio-keys.kl

press and hold until menu pops up, select: Open in Text Editor

locate line: key 172 HOME WAKE

tap behind the word WAKE and delete it so you see: key 172 HOME

press menu and select: Save and Exit

now press the button at the top of the screen to disable read and write permissions: Mount R/O

once pressed should now read : Mount R/W again.

Exit root explorer

Reboot your phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bangdrum:
And what does this do? Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DavidMT909:
It disables the home button wake. So when the screen is off and you push the home button the screen does not turn on. You have to press the power button to turn on the screen.
