thanks for the explanation, i just wanted to know....if you'll have any update on 4.3?or should I buy a note 3?

thank
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Can't really speak to what phone you should buy... but don't expect 4.3 from me until a while after it's been pushed out by TMo. In theory the modding and what not should be a bit smoother than it has proven on the note3 given the prior exposure this time around, but it still takes a while. I'll likely make a new thread for it as well... I dunno. We shall see :)

Anyone have a problem where the phone lags really bad when an app is updating? My phone has been sluggish lately all a sudden. Any diagnostics?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Wipe Dalvik and cache and reboot. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mopandasauce:
Yea Im on tmobiles network. Its been happening for over a month now. A 1:55 min video would take around 5 mins to watch. It happens mostly when i stream things or try to download things so Im guessing its something with a constant connection. Hmm, my just start deleting apps to see if theres any fixes.

I checked bandwidth speed and it came out to be around 10mbps with 2 bars of LTE. Even with the LTE, it wouldn't hold a constant connection for streaming or downloading.

Nope, it only happens on the network even with full bars of LTE. I wiped caches multiple times and still no luck. I might try updating the vasevand. Does updating the baseband reset root?

Thank you everyone for your help, I'm entirely grateful at this active community.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] You_got_owned123:
Thanks!! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Updating baseband will not affect root. UVBMD1 is the current baseband. If you are on that version you are as good as it gets.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EVO-lution of Man:
Download rom manager and install through the app. Easiest way to do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sofia-captivate:
I DID still no baseband :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SIGMAxB:
Through twrp or cwm

From the D's GN2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EVO-lution of Man:
Flash cwm through rom manager then flash the all in one kernel, radio, bootloader zip. That should get you up and running properly unless there is another problem I'm unaware of.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mopandasauce:
So, I'm thinking of updating my baseband. I checked "[-::STOCK::-] SGH-T889 Factory Images, Roms, Kernels, & Modems (Updated 06/02/13)

" thread and there were a few choices. Which one should I flash?

T889UVBMD1:_(4.1.2) (06/02/13) <--- Newest

Factory Image_-::-_ Odexed _-::-_ Deodexed _-::-_ Kernel _-::-_ Modem

I know that if I was to flash the factory image through odin, it would entirely wipe my phone back to factory state (I think,I'm pretty sure because I did it on accident one time). But how about the others?

Thank You!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] loaferkan:
my battery drain so fast....is it because I've so many accounts active: facebook, gmail, hotmail, etc? or should I reflash?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] You_got_owned123:
Loving this ROM but lately, my phone has been very sluggish. I tried wipe cache and dalvik and still slow and laggy. Any other suggestion other than to do a fresh install?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Modems don't have to wipe anything in odin. I did my wife's S3 the other day. You can also flash them in twrp or cwm recovery

I used to dirty flash the old 4.1.1 roms using Odin, never had a problem or lost data.

[MENTION=380621]harpocrates[/MENTION] - sorry for the late reply. My new work schedule had me step away from here for a little bit. I'm so glad that worked out! Congratulations, kind Sir. =)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
It's hard to say, the causes for unusual battery drain are too numerous and situation-specific to reliably peg down. Could be an app, I've heard some recent google app updates were causing issues... there are apps you can get to look for problem apps though.

Any changes/app additions or updates lately? I assume it wasn't sluggish at first. Any themes/mods? What kernel?

No, typically a theme has to be made to support a rom, and while I'm not 100% I don't think that one has been made to support tweaked unfortunately.

Sorry for the troubles folks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
There are themes made specificly for Tweaked in the theme section. Ie: MAM by Alexia, Aosp theme, S4 theme I beleive, etc....

Yea sync is a big one. Rom doesnt realky change. If you leave everything untouched for 6 months battery drain will be mostly same. Download a wakelock app and see if your phone is falling asleep and if not whats keeping it awake. Change your sync intervals in apps to slow down syncing if you dont need it as often. See whats running in the back you may be abke to disable or freeze some things you dont use. Many widgets on homescreen syncing, live wall papers, facebook is a killer, uncheck notifications and auto update apps in playstore, theres so many things that add a little at a time as time goes on and new apps are added to the battery drain.

Thanks, instead I went and downloaded a stock rom....since I messed up things...now once I get time, I'll try to get a fresh download and follow the steps....also I'm waiting for 3.5 to come out, and hope a Dev can import some of the Note3 apps to it...I'm jealous of the International Note 2, they have it all..and yet we got none :(

You could always try xthemes that are supported via xposed framework. Some have data icon issues though while others look good so just keep it mind. They even have a few kit kat themes that look pretty good. Enjoy!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svavrek:
Alright first things first... The comma key on this damn keyboard doesn't work so punctuation will suck for a bit.

So I flashed Tweaked 2.5 after other ROMs and I really do like it however recently there has been an in call sound issue that I am not positive is actually the ROMs fault so I want to see if anyone else has this problem or not...

While talking on the phone - both 3G/4G and WiFi calling (does not matter which method I use) and only on the handset (not bluetooth or speaker phone) the phone goes into this mode where thru the earpiece on the handset I can hear the person and the person can hear me but it sounds like we are both in a tin can -- I sound like I am talking into one and the person sounds like they are talking into one on my end. So I am not sure what happened but it is an INTERMITTENT problem. Tried even to flash back to the Teshxx's stock UVBMD1 modem and Kernel and still the same thing persists. That's why I don't think its necessarily a ROM issue and maybe hardware but I have never experienced it stock or on any other ROMs so figured I'd ask here.

Maybe the phone's dying. I have dropped it a few times but nothing major and its always had a thicker case on it and there is no actual damage to the phone externally. Is there a contact that maybe loose? Pushing on the earpiece does nothing to help it rebooting seems to help it but it eventually comes back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] gshadow325:
what type of case you have? Take it off and try the phone with nothing on it. like the day you pulled it out of its shipping box. stock battery, stock phone backing.

Why? Well i have a zerolemon 9300mah battery with thier new regged case, and that causes echo's
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] svavrek:
I have a stock battery and the case is from Best Buy - its a pt case with the clip holster and a slim case but its durable. It has been on the phone for over a year now.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kal-El7:
I've heard this once or twice before, both on the Note 2 and, with the Note 3 (using stock ROM, never having flashed a ROM on it before), I've encountered people sounding robotic.

I don't think it's the Tweaked ROM. Would you be alright ODIN'ing back to stock unrooted, re-root, make nandroid, flash Tweaked and see what happens after a couple days? I really can't think of anything else except that I wipe everything, reformat everything, ODIN to stock and then flash new ROMs. Typically that's my procedure and I have no issues. But yeah...I kindly think that it may be something else other than this amazing-don't-ever-look-anywhere-else-ROM.

Hey guys, I have no idea if this is rom related or not... I have tried everything else so now I'm wondering if it's the ROM. I'm having an issue with Candy Crush not connecting to the play store. I've tried clearing play store data as well as candy crush data. I've verified that it works on my wifes phone and she has a non rooted s3...so, does anyone have candy crush running on tweaked and does it connect to the play store?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
I have it on my N3 and N2 and it works ok. But my N2 has the Verizon Tweaked and N3 Tmo Tweaked. Not sure if that would make a difference.

Tweaked Alpha powered by Lean Kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Hmm... my guess is it's not rom-related but you never know. Would an ad-blocker cause issues with this? Does the issue exist both on mobile and wifi connections? I'm not sure how the app-playstore interface works with Candy Crush, but do you have other apps that have a similar playstore connection, and do those work?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
It seems 4.3 is beginning to emerge for TMo... I will start looking into it but I have to (for my own sanity) finish the note 3 stuff before I can even think of looking at it... just wanted to give folks a heads up that I am paying attention and aware, but as always I'm slow... :(

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Don't OTA or Kies the new official. You will have lots of trouble reverting. GS3 guys can't go back to 4.1 or 4.2 post update due to bootloader crabbyness. Probably the same for us. One guy on the Gn2 already tried and is having problems.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
This is because I hacked out all the sysscope stuff, and it is there that the check-for-updates bit gets blocked. As it's not there anymore, it'll let you check and more than likely even DL it - but I STRONGLY advise against trying to flash it over tweaked. There are likely some checks done in the flash process that would abort the whole thing once you said "sure let's update" but the chance that issues would arise from even trying are high enough that it's not worth trying... imo anyway :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] iCUE220:
My dilemma.. so yea I was one of those who couldn't wait and voilà... so my question is... is Knox reversible once it's activated? (Should a stayed on tweaked and waited..) smdh
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smartassassin:
Well you should still be able to use cf auto root. After that you will need to go to play store and update it. Then you should be able to disable Knox.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] iCUE220:
I tried this.. well here were my initial steps.. I first flashed stock firmware via Odin on my PC, then I flashed TWRP recovery then cfautoroot.. reboot cleared data/cache reboot let phone auto restore all Google apps and info. So supersu updated auto.. go to open supersu and it says that If I have recently updated to 4.3 should repeat process BC process has failed see attached below.. of course Knox has been flagged in DO mode.. but I repeat rooting process again this time not doing the TWRP step but just flashing stock Odin and then supersu.. still have Knox indication and will not let me access supersu.. so how does know work exactly, is this an online notification that Samsung will always know if your phone has ever been rooted? Is this not reversible in the since that I'll never be able to uproot and go completely back to stock erasing to binary count and so forth..? Don't really understand it..

IIRC the issue with the update involves the bootloader vs knox. The bootloader supposedly jacks up earlier versions of Android and prevents them from installing.

In my mind the bad part of the 4.3 OTA isn't knox st all, we can (and have) get around that. It is the bootloader bits that will be the technically challenging part.
