1.6 is based on 4.1.1 - 2.0 is based on 4.1.2. Did you update your modem to UVBMB4? To be honest I have not tried this (this meaning the 2.0 version of course) out using the UVALL4 (or any other) modems. Given the 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 base change that could be a possible culprit. Also - what kernel were you using? Did you wipe /data? I ended up ODINing the 4.1.2 tar from sammobile up front, then flashed recovery and went about tinkering - might be another approach.

Has anyone else experienced such a thing? This is definitely no good and I'd like to get to the bottom of it :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] G1Master:
This ROM is perfect with zero issues. Anyone having any other results obviously don't know what they are doing. But we are a community here so I'll try to help.

To rule every thing out always make a nandroid and then do a complete wipe of everything but your SD card. If that doesn't not solve anything then must be the ROM zip it self. These steps are just to see if there was a possibility the "dirty flash" may have messed something up, so always start fresh before jumping to conclusions.

I've been crack flashing a lot and dwith knows that and I always come back home (Tweaked) and when I do come back either with a nandroid or complete wipe I never have issues as of the latest release.

Just my input cause some of these ppls issue seem to be one in a million.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dirtymindedx:
Well you know I am not new to this. I find it funny you havent updated to 2.0 actually.

Kernels: I never use alternates when this occurred I was using out the box tweaked 2.0. First on list for downloads.

Modems: didnt flash modem. Fyi modem was fully functional after installation used for a few days just went for no reason.

Wiping data: I always factory reset device and do dalvic cache wipe and I know the 2.0 software does its own wipe ontop of mine for self preservation.

Odin: I have not done this yet but will try on future attempts to odin rom first then install 2.0 afterwards.

Nandroid: I do one everytime I try a different firmware.

Hope I answered all questions.

Looking forward for next revelation of tweaked firmware.

Keep up good work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
LOL - I misspoke there, I meant I haven't tried a non-UVBMB4 modem w/ tweaked 2.0 :)

It sounds like you did everything as you should really. So are you saying that initially things were fine w/ the modem/data connection, but after a few days it just went bye-bye out of no where?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dirtymindedx:
Yup thats exactly what happened used my backup of 1.6 and restored.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Huh... was there anything you did leading up to the random no-more-data-for-you moment - like any installs, updates, etc.? The flukiness of it almost makes it seem more a network issue, but it's hard to say really.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shane1diamond:
Sounds like but i could be wrong here, but... He flashed 2.0 without updating his modem.

"Modems: didnt flash modem. Fyi modem was fully functional after installation used for a few days just went for no reason."

He then lost his data etc (while on 2.0 using old modem.) Then restored back to 1.6 (with non updated modem) and all is well.? So he still needs to flash the new modem for use with 2.0...?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Seems like that would be the logical test. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dirtymindedx:
Nope all same apps. Phone was setup perfectly at least to my needs. I might try it again while I am here at work and do the modem update which will probably fix the issue of an about to die modem after a possible reboot after initial use. Will let you know what happens after I run through the whole thing.

Where can I find the 4.1.2 modem everyone is talking about. I just want to make sure I am using the one everyone else is using. Some ppl modify modems and I don't want to get caught with false results for this rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shane1diamond:
Dwitherell Conveniently placed it for easy download in the OP. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dirtymindedx:
Currently just waiting for fresh download of 2.0 and modem to finish and reflashing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dirtymindedx:
Ok finished d doing the update as we discussed and all seems to be working rebooted phone to double check will keep you posted as to whether it keeps functioning. I flashed the modem after reflashing the rom.

My thoughts exactly!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] stueycaster:
I use the VZW version of it. It's the same way over there. It works so good it's boring. But it's nice to have no problems with it too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shane1diamond:
L.O.L this was great! ! Couldnt agree more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kenbals:
Is there any way to make the pulldown with an image? Just thought id ask. I personally haven't seen it yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Not in a set-it-on-the-fly sense, but you can always do it the more traditional themer way (change image in SystemUI).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kenbals:
I think thats beyond my knowledge as of right now. Ok. I will start googling and reading. Thanks a million.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Is actually very easy. Download ninja morph from play store. Start a new project if systemui.apk. navigate to res/drawable-xhdpi and look for status_bar _bg (think that's the name) and click on it it will open a file explorer, find the image you want and finish up.

Make a backup first incase something goes crazy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kenbals:
Really? Thank you thank you. Will start now. Thanks again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] weysonn:
I'm looking for some help. I've flashed this rom 3 times and have been getting lockups within 5 min of running the rom.

My steps are:

Flash Basic Setup to EXT SD

Flash Rom

Wait 10 min

Reboot

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Which kernel did you pick, is it trinity? Some (including me) had problems with it. Now others have 0 problems and love it

By the way you have it Bajada, reboot then wait 10
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rmriggin:
It's probably the kernel you are using. Try stock or flash an alternate kernel after install. I've had good luck with perseus but that's just personal preference. I used to have the reboots as well until I flashed a different kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smartassassin:
Yup, it is kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] weysonn:
Thanks guys. Will reflash tonight...I always chose Trinity Kernel. No wonder.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] HOGWILD:
Can anyone tell me have they got this rom to work with all cast share dongle?im going to buy one but will not if it not rom compatible.

*whistles*

Carrier text color changing all lockscreen text... huh...

Is that an H+?

Hmm... ok the nav keys are smaller, but nothing special...

Ohhhh....

Dum de dum :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Easy wasn't it. lol Missed the lock. They are PNG's. Only two lockscreens that are a pain are the Rotary and Experia in the multi lockscreen mods. ;):cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Yeah I haven't done much in the way of porting lockscreens with this one yet. I have in the past and it tends to be a bit painful, so I've been dragging my feet on it lol.

And yeah the lock... still need to figure out how to colorize it on-the-fly like the text. I know the basic methods to do so as they are used elsewhere, but given how the glowpad is populated it's a wee bit tricky... That being said I really should look into it a bit more thoroughly - my guess is it'll be something in framework2.jar most likely.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Not sure what the glowpad is. Only way I have done on the fly mod is have as a VR option. I usually do one VR for all of them themed and another for stock. This they can set up on install. Those that want themed usually want them all themed anyway. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
Dwith, your such a tease
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Very true on the vrtheme stuff - I've been trying to get such things set up where the user can pick a color on the phone and it'll just change everything right there on the spot. That's how the text color is currently for the lockscreen - but figuring out how the system calls up/interacts with the images in the glowpad (just the term they use for the area where the lock is really) is a bit beyond me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
When I VR I just use the xml in layouts and the Png's in drawable folder in systemUI for the stock on S3. The on fly mod the rest of the lockscreens are in layout and drawables in framework res. I don't have access to look right now whether it calls from xml or smali. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Gotcha. Yeah the vrtheme stuff is still a bit new to me - never really encountered it (or aroma for that matter) until this phone to be honest. And I'm pretty sure you are spot on for what needs changing and where it's all at. Just to see if I can I've been trying to make it so with properly set up images (i.e. plain white) you can programmatically drop a color overlay on the image so that without booting into recovery you can make the image whatever color (or transparency) you want. The "just to see if I can" idea has been the driving force of most of this mess really lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Yea. I have been troubleshooting for years. Just last 6 months been jacking with the code. Smali kicking my ass. lol VTS has been a lifesaver for speeding up the learning curve and the processes. I've just started playing with the on the fly mods. The color swap haven't even looked at yet. :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Smali by its very nature cannot help but bring the pain lol - that being said feel free to hit me up if you get stumped with anything. I likely won't know the answer but I should be able to help figure it out - or at least try :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Appreciate it. Same here. My problem child right now is the black separate notification panels behind the actual notifications. Need to trans them. Know it is in smali but haven't found it yet. Main panel is easy but those be hiding. Have an idea but gonna have to do one smali at time till find it. :rolleyes::cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
*cough* SystemUI.apk - PhoneStatusBar.smali *cough*

*cough* search for -0x100 and change it to 0x0 - there were two instances on the note 2 *cough*

...*sniffle* sorry, dang allergies...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] prdog1:
Kool. I knew the change but wasn't sure which smali. Saves me some diff time. :laugh::cool:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xamindar:
Wow love the tease screenshots you posted! One question, were you able to track down the hidden notifications issue? That's the only annoyance I have with this rom. But this rom is so great, I will still use it regardless.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] foreverloco:
Nice teaser screens dwitherell! Here are some my screens of the updated theme for 2.1 :D

Edited the power menu layout for a bit more AOSP feel

Finally figured out that part with the notification bgs ;)

Gave in and said wth and changed the bg to the AOSP for settings and such menu. The color add-ons will all have their own custom bg if you choose to go with 0 transparency, but the system transparency mod is intact and came be change with the modificatinator

It will also have the AOSP navbar icons like in the screens. These updates will only be added to the tweaked 2.1 versions for now, so lets keep that on the down low for now ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xamindar:
Also I'm curious. When I swipe my hand across the screen for a screenshot there is no white line swipe to follow. Is that a Samsung change with the new room version?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
yea samsung changed

it

DWith is a bigger tease than my wife.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Hidden notifications? Apologies if this was explained to me and I spaced on it, but what is that issue again?

EDIT:

Nevermind, I searched my own thread lol. And yes, it's fixed :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dirtymindedx:
I know since this roms inception the default browser was taken out of this rom. How hard would it be for me to readd it? Looks like the only browser with possible java ability is the stock one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
It's not hard at all. In fact you can select it as an option at install or using the modificatinator. The only issue is that you cannot have both the aosp browser AND the stock TW browser simultaneously - they have identical package names so it causes issues. I set things up so they also have identical file names, so if you select one in the modificatinator it will overwrite the other essentially (it also wipes browser data to help alleviate any issues).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] farfromovin:
Dwitherell- I was supposed to remind you to look into adding a Misc Settings option under TSM Parts for "Wake on Plug". You already have it for the unplug power condition, hope it's not too hard to add the other side.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
Crap - I totally spaced on that. Ok... lemme see if I can hammer that out real quick :) Thanks!

EDIT: Check :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Isn't there already a Verizon port by imnuts?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mao04:
Yes, but he has said he is taking a break, so I am trying to port. That way I learn... and my favorite rom is updated to 4.1.2. Two birds, one stone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Very nice! I wasnt trying to discourage you by the wayi just ran imnuts version that's why I was wondering. Dwitherell is a great guy so I'm sure he'll be great help. By the way awesome they you want to learn!

I'm not positive but I remember hearing folks say it doesn't work on lte - though I have no clue on it tbh. In my experience such things always seem to be hit or miss, but I thought I would share what I heard regardless.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mopandasauce:
I see. I'll probably check ask around to see what's up with it too. Lte drains a crapp load of battery though. They just updated my area to have it and it's Ok speeds but a battery drainer.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PENKO956:
depend on what you want to do. if you are new to the rom just download the main rom (907mb) and flash. later on you will read up and decide which mods you want to use. don't mess with basic/advance approach without reading/understanding what your doing. :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jay.dub:
Yes this rom is compatible with the allshare dongle. You have to flash the rom then are sure you are using the stock kernel and you have to also flash the stock recovery. Then run triangle away and your good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dwitherell:
PENKO956 is right on - definitely need to read up the OP (really the first few posts) a bit before moving forward with everything. To answer your question - if you are looking for something beyond the default install, you should flash the Basic Approach Prepare Install zip first (as the name implies, this prepares a file you need to get a non-default install), and then flash the main rom.

That being said, if you haven't tried it already you might want to wait until later this evening... just saying :)

Basically they are a wee bit smaller, and the buttons you see there are what show always (no recents button shows). There are other things that were modified related to this, but as far as the buttons are concerned thats how they are modified. Well that and the fact that you can turn them on/off on the fly w/out reboots/scripts/build.prop edits.

Also, if i had a theme flashed before, should I just flash it again? I did the OTA from 2.0 and it changed some themed stuff. Also, there's some lang in the AOSP messaging app. Like when you click on it to view message, it lags a bit before showing the list. I turned off transition animations though
