Whenever I set a wallpaper I go to gallery (twiz), pick a picture, press menu and do set as, home and lock screen, drag the section I want, click ok, and it sets both.

Doesn't work for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shawheim:
only thing I can suggest is a reflash.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlnboiler36:
Yea I have flashed a couple of times now. Thanks for all your suggestions though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
Not sure if it will help but all my reading said you needed the original TW gallery to make it stick. I found the original Note 2 gallery, installed it and Bingo, suddenly I could set the lockscreen wallpaper.

If you'd like a copy of the original gallery I have it on Dropbox and you can download it here:

SecGallery2.apk
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shawheim:
It's all in aroma.

For whatever reason I keep greeting an error that says application not installed and I have the option checked to install apps not from the market...this is FUBAR

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 PM ----------

Is it packaged with another app or something because I see contacts and Cramer and calendar but no gallery.......
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
True. But if you already have your phone set up it's kind of silly to flash the entire ROM again when all you need is one file.

Scratched out with my Dragonclaw
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shawheim:
It's silly but it adds that one file without messing everything up.

Scribbled from my Note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tjohnsonjr:
When in aroma, you can just flash there apps/mods without flashing the entire ROM. Just unselected the ROM when selecting the mods. Its the first option
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
I was unaware of that option. Thank you.

Scribbled from my Note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] K0NRT15:
thought the aroma option was to remove it...let me try that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] klbjr:
If I wanted to add/replace some emojis in Mms.apk would I have to decompile the whole apk & re-sign it or could I just drop the new images into the apk with 7zip & push the new apk back into system?

downloaded and installed

I downloaded and installed the ROM but when I flashed it (and I did it 2x to make sure) there was no aroma installer or and options. what am I doing wrong?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shawheim:
Download it again. Probably a bad download.

Scribbled from my Note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lindanpoll:
Awesome. Thanks so much. I mean everything else loaded....its all aosp-ish just no aroma
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shawheim:
That's odd. But I guess it can happen.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tjohnsonjr:
Make sure you downloaded v1.5 and not v1.4. v1.4 doesnt have the aroma installer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aheeejd:
I flashed 1.4, booted up, then flashed 1.5 right after. I wiped dalvik & cache & all is well. I haven't read through the thread yet, & I will, but was wondering if people are flashing the persius kernel or leaving it be? Rom is running great, thank you for your hard work.

There is an Xposed module to allow all apps in the store. Have you tried that? If you need it and can't find it I'll post a link when I get home tonight.

That would be awesome, i'm looking for it and there is a ton of mashed up threads coming up. any idea what it would be called?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
http://db.tt/d7tiCRDE (figured out how to create the link from my phone so you don't have to wait)

It's called XposedAllAppsInPlsystore.apk, use the above link to grab it from my Dropbox, click on it to install it, then make sure you go to the modules tab in Xposed and check the box for it. Once it's turned on you set the options by going into Xposed again and clicking on the module, that brings up the settings page.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] saboture:
hi, I've been running this rom for a few days and love it. However I'm going to be trading my GNII for a GS3 + 200.00, but I don't have time to download the factory image and odin back to stock.. The guy is okay with it being rooted, but my main question is, when I take the phone to sprint with this rom on it, will they be able to deactivate this phone, and activate it on his line without error?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Shawheim:
The short answer is yes. But why not download the Galaxy note 2 toolkit and put it back to factory. Also if he activates the phone online you don't get charged the activation fee like you do in store.

Clean flash or dirty, doesn't matter. I get a bootloop with this ROM.

Any ideas?

edit: Flashed with the latest TWRP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tjohnsonjr:
These phones activate OTA. All you need to do is have Sprint swap the ESN and then update the profile on the phone. It will program itself with the new number and then the phone will reboot. After that you're good.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nikonx:
My phone does not like AOSP messaging app and it crashes and has trouble sending/receiving MMS.

Any simple way to replace stock messaging? Would love to see this in Aroma.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
Have you tried Handcent or Chomp from the play store? Both are free, though Chomp handles MMS issues better on my current phone.

Flashed the latest rom but now I have no status bar. :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xeper:
I tried flashing the 1.4.x.x recommended for those who are having issues, then flashing the new one, I either get a boot loop or stuck on the Samsung logo forever.

If it helps, I do have a brand-new Note II, just shipped from Sprint a few days ago. (not sure if maybe a newer FW, or something. I was able to root fairly easily.)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dedline:
No luck

I did what you advised. Coming from Whompasarus rom, did a factory reset, clean wipe, and tried to flash 1.4.7. In TWRP v2.5.0.1 I try and flash 1.4.7 and it just sits on the flashing screen saying flashing file 1 of 1 and goes no where. Never installs. I tried downloading 1.4.7 from this site, and others, each file I transfer to my sd from my computer does the same thing. I then tried just flashing 1.5.2 and it goes to AROMA this time, but then after it installs to 100% it reboots and I get a black screen. When I tried 1.5.1 it gets to 30% in Aroma installer and reboots to black screen. Any advise, this was my favorite rom when it worked before.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
Not sure if it will help, but to make sure there are no lingering issues from previous ROMs, when I wipe with TWRP 2.5.0.1 I factory reset X3, then I DATA wipe X3, then go into advanced wipe and wipe the first four options X3. I know its overkill and many will say unnecessary, but doing it that way I've never had an issue installing a new ROM so might be worth a try.

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------

Just glad I could help. LOVE the ROM and until I start putting out my own I figure I owe what help I can in other ways.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
I have a status bar missing half the stuff.

It's a great rom. I just need to find time to flash it again. I tried a few times last night but still have lingering problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinsoku3g:
Just thought I'd throw it out there.. I can't imagine using any other ROM for the note.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jamice4u:
I feel the same way. This is most complete ROM out there.

Sync issues

Running latest 1.5.2 build and perseus alpha v35 with Baseband version MA7 on the Sprint L900. Did a clean install to 1.4.7 then flashed to 1.5.2. On first attempt to add facebook to accounts I get an error, and says Try single sign-on again. This repeats any time I try and re sign on. My password is correct, but at this point its not even letting me put that it, just goes back to Facebook account in settings/accounts. Says last synced on a certain date but I keep getting this error.

My Samsung calendar will not sync and update due to this error syncing with facebook in accounts. I also have no graphics underneath 3G like the arrows showing transmission up and down. I have had far less positive connection for 3g or just sprint network. Usually at 1-3 bars when I am normally at full. Lots of 3g dropping to 1x as well. Should I be flashing a different MODEM? If so, please give advice on which to flash and any other helpful advice.

Love this ROM, favorite in last months. Keep up the good work DEV's, I fully support this rom. Hope this info is helpful if others are having any issues maybe someone can answer to help. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BlueGoldAce:
I am experiencing the exact same thing.

Blue
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamingWolf:
Short answer is yes. This ROM is based off the MC2 firmware (as listed in the title) If you really want to stay with this ROM (which I also love) I would go with the flashable update file from this thread.

Make sure you read the entire first post (and the thread if you have questions) and follow the directions. I did, and you should, have a painless and quick update to the latest firmware.

I would then do a full wipe and reflash of the ROM (to make sure there are no left over files to cause you headaches) and that should eliminate your issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinsoku3g:
If the baseband says mc2 it should already be the right modem right? I assumed sprint was just horrible lately..because it usually is. I've been getting wonky WiFi connects and unresponsive 4g. Could just be my network tho.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nikonx:
Installed Chomp SMS because I was having trouble with stock messaging crashing. Now I'm not getting all of my texts. This is a major deal breaker. Wish I could have the option to use the stock messaging app since it is the only one that seems to work consistently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lindanpoll:
Is this ROM morphology friendly?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Guys have a few questions.

Absolutely love this ROM.

However, have previously purchased Swiftkey.

But the preinstalled Samsung version is awesome.

Love the theme and also seems to be more streamlined.

Does the keyboard get updated the same way the regular swiftkey does?

Where would I find the actual apk for the keyboard thanks.

The other question I have is how do I make the top bar transparent?

Thanks for all the help.

I was going through the post and decided to go back to the first post to see the current version number and seen 6/12 and that it was edited... Toooo excited lol

My favorite rom. I've tried a bunch but at the end of the day, this is perfect for me and my multitasking/show-off needs lol thank you!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dathion:
can this be Dirty Flashed over the 1.5.2? I just installed that version for the first time this morning, had some questions so I came back to read every post before I asked and saw it was updated. lol :p so I was wondering if it could just be Dirty Flashed? :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tjohnsonjr:
Yes it can. You shouldnt have any issues

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dathion:
Dirty flash did work with no issues. and it fixed the issues I had before thanks. :good:

edit...

well maybe not as good as we had hoped... it keeps tweeking out force closing apps and rebooting into boot loops. I will reboot into recovery and fix permissions and let you know how it goes.

update:

well after a wipe of Cashe and fix permissions it still crashed out. I did a strait install of 1.5.3 and it still crashes and reboots at random.

So this time I am going to flash the 1.4.7 then the 1.5.3 and let you know how it goes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] emmac176:
So with the new update i decided to remove aosp messaging witch was working fine and installed Samsung messaging and it won't open at all it just fc's. Can anyone tell me if i go back into aroma can i just install aosp messaging or will it go through the whole install again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dathion:
Not exactly sure. I was not able to use the new update at all. I had to go back to 1.5.2 every time i installed 1.5.3 my system would FC on one item or another. I figured I would re-download the update from home tonight. maybe it was a bad download.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] emmac176:
Both times i dirty flashed and had No issues (1.5.2 and 1.5.3) just no messaging I'm going to restore my 1.5.2 backup and try again after work. I think I'm just going to leave aosp messaging

Also, can someone explain why the back arrow was on the right side and with the latest update its on the left? How do I change that.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tjohnsonjr:
As for the soft keys, the buttons were mapped that way to give a more AOSP look. If you look at the Galaxy Nexus you'll notice that soft keys are mapped the same way.

I was experiencing this same thing (bolded section above) coming from TWRP/CM10.1 Nightlies. Finally after flashing 1.52, I flashed Modified_L900VPAMC2_Kernel.zip, and then it finally finished booting.

yes. I noticed a drop. Usually when I leave work I'm at about 69-75%, but since the update, it's been between 30-39%. I do the same things every night, so my routine hasn't changed, but the battery life definitely did.

But honestly, it'll still make you through the day, I'm on 12 hours right now, just got off work and just hit 36%. So for me it isn't much of an issue, but the drain IS present.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] klbjr:
Yeah I work 12 hr shifts too and usually I walk out with between 20-30% and that is with listening to Pandora/Google Music/iHeart over 4G and checking FB & IG pretty often. So if its a noticeable drain them I may have to pass. Is this with using the kernel that comes with the ROM or another one?

The actual camera or the option? I know for sure that the Stock ROM, Goodness and Mack's has it. If you open up the settings while in the camera and scroll down towards the bottom there should be an option that says "Take photos using voice". Once that is cut on you can snap photos by saying either "Smile, Cheese, Capture and Shoot". Pretty cool feature.
