Thank you sir/ma'am. Much appreciated!

This is now my new daily driver. Awesome rom with the a plethora of features. The only thing I can't figure out is how to make the settings background black. I often use light backgrounds and I can't see what settings I'm pressing. Sorry if this has been discussed ad nauseum.

6-25-13 release? :D

We can only hope. I don't know how much of this my F5 key can take!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
It is going to be a 6/24 build, but I sent it to the two people that have themes out for the ROM so they could get a head start so you wouldn't have to wait as long if you've themed your phone. I'll upload it when I get off work and get home.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Decided to try this rom out for the first time, and I have to say, from just the first 5 minutes of use, im in love. Has everything I need to customize as well as too fast, this thing flies. Thank yiu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] torr310:
How is the battery life compared to Beans?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RemnantKing2:
There's a lot of variables like your phone, which ROM youre using, which kernel you're using, and how heavy of a user you are. So you can't really ask that since everyone's battery life will be different based on those. Touchwhiz ROMs for the most part all have great battery life, whether its as good as beans or not you'll have to give it a shot yourself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] torr310:
I think one who uses both ROMs is able to answer that. Thank you for the feedback. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
This is the best Tweaked build yet! Thanks dwitherell and imnuts!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
The battery life is on par with beans for my use. When I leave work Im normally at 69% for both roms. If I had a better signal im sure it would be much greater. I usually charge everynight with 55% for both roms. Loved Beans rom, but I am IN LOVE with this one.

I can not believe how long I have slept on this rom. Anyone thinking about making the jump, don't hesitate, just do it. Ton of great features, super fast, combination of aosp and tw features, great battery life, and support by op and others to boot. Couldn't be more happier. :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmbfan13:
So what are the new features with Tweaked 2.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
What are the steps to flash this coming from Beans 17?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
Pretty much with any rom.

1. Download the rom

2. Wipe Cache, System, Factory Reset, and Davlik Cache

3. Install Rom

4. Profit. :good:

Skip Setup Wizard after installing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
Do I have to flash a separate kernel? What kernel you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
Using Stock kernel. So far so good. I have used Sabre exclusively in the past, but I see no reason to use it at the moment. Everything, just WORKS! :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
I mean if I have to flash a kernel for the rom to work? In the op it says you do. Or has that changed? Thanks for the quick replies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
You do not have to flash a kernel. Stock kernel is fine. Don't think the op has been updated all that much, there are other discrepancies. But the rom is perfectly fine, give it a shot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ahjee:
The rom doesn't come with a kernel I believe, so if you're coming from an Aosp rom then you must flash a touch wiz kernel. If you're coming from another tw rom whichever kernel the previous rom had baked into it will be the kernel you get when you flash this rom.

I'd recommend imnuts kernel "pbj" or faux kernel if not using stock kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
Thanks for clarification if that is indeed the case. I have not been on an AOSP rom, so Im ASSuming that whatever kernel I have been using, will continue to whatever rom Im currently using.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chickoid:
So I just flashed this Rom (from Beans 18) with Faux Kernel and must say so far I'm very impressed! Great work here!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
Anyone know how the scheduled messaging works? Can't find any settings for it. Also anyone have a link to stock Verizon kernel for VRAMC3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fkfmfz:
You can get the kernel from the stock by beanstown106. As fas as the msg schedule I dont know how it works yet.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
I think it was removed with the update to the new base.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
It may not exactly reflect what imnuts has done (and in fact often does not), but you can always check out the changelogs

here

to get a general idea of what changed. 2.2 was a smaller update as it was more a set of little fixes and updating the T-Mobile base.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] torr310:
Sounds good to me. You jump, I jump! LOL XD
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
All the changes I found are small and elegant lol like the notification circles on the lockcreen, double tap home button to voice search, or including SuperSU instead of Superuser; I presume because some of us complained of lock ups with the latter. It really is a fantastic work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
I don't think he changed the supersuer.

Anyone having problems getting their PC to recognize the phone? It see's it in Recovery, but I'm unable to get MTP to work while booted into Android. Tried two different kernels just to be on the safe side.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eric2112:
I've been trying to get Google Wallet working with this for quite some time to no avail (Stupid Verizon!). Has anyone been able to get this to work on this Rom? I tried searching, but couldn't figure out how to search this thread specifically. Any help, even a point to the proper post is appreciated!!!

P.S.: Forgot my wallet today, so I could really use this. LOL!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Have you tried the thread in general?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KGBxxx:
I cant either. It charges but doesn't recognize storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] eric2112:
General was the first place I looked. I tried several different methods to get it to work, but no luck. It seems that most people on that thread are using Beans or other roms. My question was specific to this Rom which is why I asked here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
I missed re-enabling that feature with the 4.1.2 update. I'll find it and re-enable Scheduled Messages on the next update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KGBxxx:
Imnuts, you dont have any problem with pc recognizing storage?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lentm:
I just finished installing this rom.

The only problem I see is as the pictures show.

I pressed the menu and they overlap.

Lots of apps have this problem such as modaco toolkit, friendcaster...

I did a clean install.

Anyway to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Did you verify the download md5's?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] MADDAN18:
No problems here. Downloaded to my pc last night, detected the device/SD card just fine. It did take about 30 seconds for the usb drivers to detect it, but all is good.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
No
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dukins:
Yes. Thank you Thank you Thank you. Fist pump.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hajabooja:
I was able to install the Hidden Menu enabler apk and then change the USB settings within that app. Got it working. Search the internet, it was done by adrynalyne and was posted on one of the other forums. Change the USB setting from MTP to MTP/ADB or something like that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KGBxxx:
Nice I'll try that. Thanks bro
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ahjee:
I'm connecting as media or camera on Ubuntu. .I'll try windows later.

On the other hand, rom seems flawless so far. Mad smooth and fluent, stability will be tested with faux latest.

I missed this rom, been a while but feels oh so good to be back here, you've done again imnuts and diwit. Love the aosp feel to it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
1. Are you using the stock oem cable that came with the phone? Because I used to have that problem where my computer wouldnt read my phone using vwrizons charger. Worse comes to worse, download "airdroid" I havent touched my cable to the computer since.

2. Where can I find this faux kernel everyone is talking about? Looked in every development thread for the phone.

3. Is there any 100% transparent statusbar mod?

Thank you for my favorite new daily driver!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] littleguevara:
2. General discussion I believe.

3. You can make the status bar transparent with TSM Parts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ahjee:
Yes I am using the same cable my phone came with. ..I haven't tried it in window's yet but will shortly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lentm:
just checked it, 376fb76e7fdd210daa4f32e9d25c048c which is correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] OutdoorOBW:
I know someone else was posting about having a problem with some app settings menus overlapping. I am also having that problem. So far only with Smooth Calendar.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] foreverloco:
Here's a fix for the overlapping issue. Flash in recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Redflea:
I'm thinking about getting a Note II, and will be looking for a ROM that retains the basic Touchwiz features while cleaning things up and offering more customization options.

This ROM sounds like it might be the one - description looks good and the developer seems very responsive.

Appreciate a couple comments on how you guys are enjoying the ROM, and favorite additional customization options.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jrbxx7:
Flash it u wont regret it tsm parts has tons of customization options. .. very stable and fast!! Great battery life.

One kick @$$ ROM:thumbup::thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iOSh8er:
Loving this ROM. Thanks again!

Support your dev's...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lentm:
Just flashed this, and works well. Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
IMO, has almost as much if not more options for customizing in 1 place than any AOSP Rom out there, and more options in one rom than all of the TW Roms ive tried out put together.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Redflea:
Thanks for the comments, I appreciate them. Just have to figure out if I'm sure I can handle the larger size of the Note II in my pocket.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ornwilson:
This is a GREAT ROM! the customization is awesome, but the best of TouchWiz is kept. Plus multiwindow and the pen are essentials for me and evrything works well.

I have the menu overlapping issue on just a couple apps, so I'm going to flash the fix and see if that works.

FWIW, I did a bad thing and 'dirty flashed' the 6/24 build over the 3/03 build with only wiping Dalvik and cache a few times. It actually worked great and fixed my GPS issue and fixed random reboots every day or two. YMMV or course. To me, that speaks to the quality of coding.

The dev (imnuts) is very responsive as well!

As for the phone: I have a slim-ish grippy case on it so it doesn't feel like it's going slide out of my hand, and it fits in pockets fine. People usually ask me why I carry a phone that won't fit in a pocket, then they try it and say "Oh, I guess that does fit just fine." The best I can say is just try it and you;ll probably be surprised.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Redflea:
Thanks for the info. Yeah, my wife has a Note II, she just got it a couple weeks ago. I've been playing with it, and practicing pocketing it, and it it's surprising how well it fits in a pocket. If I hadn't tried hers, I'd never have considered it for myself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Once you get used to the size (maybe a week) I feel like I cant go back to another regular phone. S4 is maybe a slight difference in size but I still prefer the note 2. When I play with my old s3 from time to time I always say "the screens too small"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I picked it up one time and immediately every other phone made became too small. I fell right in love with the big display and battery. I have big hands.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
This is the most stable ROM that comes with customization which is nice. And it's not just a little freedom, you can do a lot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bweegn:
I gotta run my trap about this ROM again. I just can't get away from it. It has everything I want and is so damn stable.

Thanks for keeping on top of this beauty. Come on payday, I definitely owe you something for this piece !!!! Thank You.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
Aight...im gonna pull the trigger tonight...been waiting and reading long enough. If it anything close to what it was on my charge i shkuld be very happy. Only thing thats been holding me back is i love the theme i have now on CR but screw it time for a change.

Thanks be to XDA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
What Kernel are you guys finding to work best with Tweaked so far?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bmerrill63:
Saber UC edition
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ahjee:
once again, just saying i love this damn rom. so fluent and speedy. Next to great if not great battery life and it's been rock solid stable for me.

Great work imnuts.

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 PM ----------

I would recommend either faux, pbj (imnuts own kernel) or the stock verizon kernel tbh.

As of lately I have come to know that my phone works great with Faux kernel despite the rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I want to flash this rom but im stuck with what kernel to use. Im currently running Perseus 36.3 and i just flashed PBJ and what a difference. So smooth and virtually no lag. Friggin awesome but i went back to Perseus because im guessing no init.d support with PBJ because i could not flash my extsd2intsd mod. I need this mod because i had it since i bought the phone when it first came out and everything is set up that way. Really wish i could have left it for a few days as im sure the battery life would have been better too. So whats a good kernel with init support that i can use with this rom something clean like PBJ...i dont want all this crap that Perseus contains anymore. Thanks

Thanks be to XDA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] k9cop:
Tried installing this rom three times to no avail. Wiped and FR. No workie. Coming from Beans 18. Guess I'll stay where I am.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Some of the older versions of TWRP don't work with Tweaked. Get "Goo Manager" and after it's installed tap the menu button and tap "Install OpenRecovery". Allow it to reboot and install. After that it should work. Also you need to be on a TW kernel but "Beans" is TW isn't it? You just can't use an AOSP kernel. Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
That's nice. What error did you see in recovery? If it was a status 7 error, consider reading the FAQ.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
K running saber uc now and its pretty good. Better than Pers but not as PBJ. Going to try Faux and pick one than flash rom by tomorrow night. Thanks

Thanks be to XDA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
PBJ kernel here. Silky smooth with Boeffla sound mod. This is as good as my Note has ever run.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I know im dying to use PBJ but the storage swap mod doesnt work.

Thanks be to XDA

---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

Imnuts is it a pain to get your kernel to work with the storage swap mod? Ill make it worth your while if you can do it somehow i promise.

Thanks be to XDA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BennyJr:
Have you tried using the stock kernel mod?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
Link to the script or attach it to a post and I'll look into it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Im not sure if im missing something but I cant seem to stream videos from my phone to my xbox like ive done in the past. Pretty sure it was with allshare, but since ive downloaded it still hasnt worked
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
If I remember correctly the vold value in the script may have to change. Using terminal emulator run the mount command - look for /storage/extsdcard or something similar and look for the number associated with /dev/block/vold (usually 179:## or something like that) and make sure that value matches what is in the init.d or whatever script. I could very likely be completely wrong on this of course, so take that into consoderation as well. I'd likely just post a link to the script and have imnuts look at it really... making this a somewhat worthless post...

There are some steps people usually have to go through to get that to work on modified stock roms, and I believe triangle away was involved.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Im sorry but can you elaborate? I always thought it was a samsung sync thing or something similar to that
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
I know very little as I lack the necessary items to play with this feature, but from what I've read in the T-Mobile forums anyway is that the most success stems from using the stock kernel (though some report otherwise). Regardless (and if you have a custom recovery this would need to be done after every reboot - again, so they say) you need to run Triangle Away first - once that process is done (never used it so I don't know what it entails) you are able to use the allshare cast/samsung sync or whatever it's called now. Sorry for my lack of knowledge on this one - I'd know more if it was something I used, but I figured I'd at least share some of what I've read. Hope it helps :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
Here is the link to the mod. I have a 32g sd card so it would be the one for 32g custom kernel. Thank you so much for looking at this and i really hope you can figure it out.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2036796
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
I didn't get a chance to look at the script yet, but it looks like all it is doing is unmounting both SD cards, then remounting them in opposite locations. IMO, there is a better way to go about this on the kernel side of things.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I jist read something in the op of the mod that im gonna try and let you know if it works before you waste your time. Gonna try in a bit.

---------- Post added at 11:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------

Nuts i got it. Went in smanager and fixed it up. Its working perfect so far. My friend i can tell already this kernel is amazing. It is so friggin smooth and fast compared to saber and perseus. I know its still early and its gotta settlle in but i see a huge difference already. You are awesome my friend. Will be buying you a six pack soon. Thanks. Now i can try out my favorite charge rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] guthrien:
Is there a way to adjust the onscreen keys that it lets you display? I'd like to have recent apps vs the menu key. May have missed this some place.

I know I've said this already, but this latest update is absurdly good. I think it might be the best I've run.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
Great rom only issue I see is that there is a bit of lag from pushing home button to going to home screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
If you have s voice enabled wirh doubling press homekey, ive noticed this happens on any rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
Tried that :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] OutdoorOBW:
I can't change my carrier name on the lockscreen. Not matter what I put in it always says "Tweaked". I am using the stock lock screen with finger ink if that makes a difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Might be a dumb question, but is this the carrier text at the top of the lockscreen, or the text right above the icons along the bottom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] OutdoorOBW:
It is the text along the bottom. It will change color, just not the text.

On a side note I just realized that the date and charging status changes to what ever color you pick too. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Ah. Yeah the text along the bottom is actually the help text - you can turn it off/on and change it's color, but you can't change the text. When you change the carrier text the text that changes is actually up above the clock on the lockscreen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Has anyone else figured out the possibility of why I cant stream my videos? I persobally believe it may have something to do with samsung accounts and allshare/dnla. I loved this rom a lot but I do need that feature as im always watching movies from my phone to my xbox, to watch on a large tv, especially on vacation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
Probably because the All Share apps aren't included in the ROM, but it's just a guess why it isn't working. You'll have to wait until I get the stock apps package together, or find the updated APKs yourself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
I used the apk for allshare on a other rom but it wouldnt work still without a samsung account. When I tried to add a samsung account app to the system (to the best of my noob ability) it alwats timed out, and every reboot would cause a "tapatalk has forced closed" (weird)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
The stock Samsung apps are in the OP. They're for 4.1.1 but they'll probably work fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] OutdoorOBW:
Got ya. On the stock lock screen I don't see any text above the clock and assumed that the "Tweaked" on the bottom was it. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Ive forgotten about the stock apps in the OP. Ill try them out. Anyone else have any luck with them? Before I reflash the rom again?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I've put a couple of them in my phone. It worked out fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
I cant figure out how to only choose a few. I installed the zip on tweaked and my keyboard woukd not pop up at all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
Download them to your computer and unzip it. Then transfer just the apk's that you want via USB. Or if you have them in your phone unzip them there. Either way they have to be unzipped first. Put them in /system/app, set permissions to rw-r-r and reboot your phone. I hope you didn't try to flash the zip in Recovery. If so I hope you have a backup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Thank you Thank you Thank you!! I felt like an idiot before. Used RTB Root Browser and worked like a charm. I transferred the files originally from beans unzipped that I had and it didnt work. Maybe I was missing one file, but using the stock apps from imnuts I transfered anything allshare, and anything samsung account to be on the safe side and it worked like a charm. Thanks again!

Edit - if I update the rom, using the update file (when one comes) do I have to do this everytime?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
When I flash the whole rom I always wipe system first. So yeah, I have to reinstall any add-ons. But when I did Tweaked 2.2 I used the upgrade so I got to keep everything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Last question. How do I change the boot animation? I tried flashing the google edition boot and it wont work. I assume because this uses a bootsound
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] fkfmfz:
Depends on your kernel. It needs to support bootanimation.zip and put the zip in system/media
