Have you tried the reset ##786# then update prl and profile? This will also do a factory reset on the rom so make a nand before trying. Oh and you will need to be on a touchwiz rom when you do this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
You should have slapped him... For being dumb. The ota update wouldn't do a thing for your 4g.

What this guy said lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
When I do ##786#, it wants my MSL in order to reset. Is there a way to get the MSL while i'm not rooted?

- edit - never mind, got it. Trying now...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ninja984:
Has anyone had any problems with playing music?

I can start the music with the widget on the main screen but when I click any other programs the music cuts out. I've tried rebooting the phone a couple of times and it stills does it. Is there any other settings I'm supposed to play with.

Any help is appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
Did the ##786#, factory reset, update prl and profile. Still no 4G love. Anything else I might try before I bring it to the Sprint repair shop?

Not looking forward to having to remove all the Knox crud again...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
That is all I know to try since I an flashed to another provider. Hopefully someone else might know something else.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
Is not that bad. I accepted the ota for ****s and giggles. I used cf-auto-root to get root access (Knox blocks any downloads of root apps still). Once I technically had root I Odin'd twrp. With TWRP I flashed Billards Back to stock MC2 in TWRP. Knox bootloader was replaced with mc2 bootloader and since I flashed the root zip before rebooting was able to use ROM Manager to install TWRP again and went from there. I've since Odin'd Philz and been rocking it. But I still don't think the ota will fix your problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
I know this is getting off-topic... but I'll share.

I installed the 4.3 update (of course this fixed nothing) and went to the local Sprint repair shop. The guy who took my information said Oh yeah, the recent update has been messing up peoples' 4G. I told him I just installed the update like 2 hours ago, and it affected nothing. So he wrote it up, called out a techie who said they'd bring it back and test it. They then started explaining how LTE is "not official in San Diego" and how it's been spotty for everyone lately because they're "upgrading the towers". So I mentioned how my coworkers and even the downtown Sprint store salesman were getting great LTE connections, while mine just times out. He said "yeah, you can have two Note 2s side by side, and one will get LTE and the other will not". I said that is awesome. :silly:

So they take the phone in back, and an hour later give it back to me saying everything tested ok. I ask Did you test LTE?! and they say Well, no, we don't get LTE in this location. So I says But all your phones show 4G LTE on the status bar, and he embarrassingly tells me that all the display phones are set to display 4g LTE, regardless of actual signal.

So, long story long, he agreed to swap out my phone on Friday. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Maxx134:
I also used the mc2 back to stock to get out of the dam new stock Knox crap ROM,

Which actually ran pretty well, but was full of useless Samsung bloatware crap to me.

Then I tried that "smooth ROM" and my phone lagged and froze. I also lost phone sound I believe from so much flashing.

I went back to mc2 and somehow after a lot of playing with sound settings and apps voice call sound came back.

Anyway I was thinking to go back to my old trusted whompasaurus ROM but decided to try this ROM..

OMG this ROM is so nice! Everything so far is working with the other file added but I don't recommend deleting apps like they said I could from that file because it messed up the ROM.

Anyway I have to say I believe I will stay on this ROM just amazing and smooth and even the browser looks real not mobile.

I had the note3 for three days while I waited for my note2 to be replaced and have to say I am liking this ROM better and its just as quick its pretty amazing but I am only on my first day.

Just excellent wow.

No prob with WiFi or MMS so far.

The only problem I see is how to turn on GPS??

EDIT:

MY APOLOGIES AS I was on "DIRTY UNICORNS" Rom not this one...

BUT NOW I am on this one...

THIS ONE IS EVEN BETTER!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Maxx134:
EDIT;; EDIT;; EDIT;;

THIS GPS PROBLEM WAS NOT ON THIS ROM!!!!

I WAS ON "DIRTY UNICORNS" ROM

And I wasn't wearing my glasses so I mistakingly posted here as I had so many tabs open looking for best roms.

MY APOLOGIES TO OP...

Ok I did a lot more reading and flashing to find out that if the GPS is in the "off" position and not used,

Then it may stay in that "state" in subsequent flashes and that's what happened to me.

It didn't matter if it was this ROM or any jellybean ROM.

Even flashing to stock wasn't good enough.

I had to go to old "wbompasaurus" ROM to get GPS to show life in the "on" state.

I left the GPS on thru more flashing to stock MC2 again then to this ROM to have it going.

I would have to recommend leaving ALL radios (WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS) on before flashing any new ROM,

Just to be on the safe side to avoid any headaches and time wasted.

I am happy to say I finally have a ROM I could keep for a while.

I hope to see more kit kat ROMs as it just seems better all around.

Well at least this one anyway :)

Looks like I won't need to buy that Note3 for a while! Lol

EDIT:

I moved onto "slimrom" as I found that it is most solid of the kitkat roms

Any help on getting All Share Cast (screen mirroring, whatever you call it) to work? In Settings > Display > "Cast screen", showing no nearby devices found. Samsung wireless dongle appears to be connected to TV OK as it shows the All Share Cast from the wireless connector/device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] supreme83:
dont knot if you ever found an answer. you have to install apn backup and restore or apn modding app as a system app or priv-app and in apn backup and restore disable ics check

manually edit apns like so

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Have those thing ever worked on anything other than a stock unrooted phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
Screen mirroring... also known as hdmi out or mhl.... does not work on any AOSP roms for our device. So All Share isn't going to do anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lennykravitz2004:
Thank you. Kinda feel like the Plinko puck just landed in the $0. Oh well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] e92dream:
So.... How did those deodexed builds work out?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
So what version is everyone considering a stable daily driver. I prefer to stay on the older builds for now until the newer version gets the theme chooser.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Well, just been without power for 6 days (live in PA) needless to say dev'ing hasn't been easy :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Suck.

Reminds me of the time in upstate NY at college that my landlord decided to DIY a furnace repair...and only realized after he had the damn thing in pieces on the floor that he was missing a broken part that needed mail ordered in....in the middle of November.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
So are you going to do deodexed releases? I'm sure that would make it possible to get an "Official" status as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Running a new build now, 2.8 RC3. Good bit of changes even since last nights build.

Not really concerned about official status.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Uploading Build 2.8 RC3. Deodexed, and "out of the box" so to speak

So I've been using ART Runtime with no issue

BUT, If you are on my Previous Slim releases you will need to do a FULL wipe before Rom Flash

AND flash the Slim Gapps package after Rom Flash in recovery

I have not included them in the rom Zip as before with other tweaks etc

Full Wipe, Rom Flash, Slim Gapps Flash, Reboot

beta 2.8 RC3

With todays build I have no general settings under interface. So I can't get to LCD settings. Just wondering if anyone else sees the same?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Have you run the 4.4.2 builds? Not sure its been added back yet
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] brewsbro:
thanks. This is my first time. No problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
I was running the new rom and the devil kernel. I found that my battery wouldn't charge (or at least it it wouldn't show as charging). I wiped cache and re-flashed the rom, now it charges properly. Perhaps tomorrow I'll re-flash devil kernel, for science.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Version 1.1 of devil kernel has that issue. Charging is fixed on 1.2 but it has issues with touchwiz roms.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
Hey guys 2 questions regarding the latest release:

Where is the extended reboot options to allow reboot to recovery? I thought it was in developer settings, but I am not seeing it.

Also, when I initially setup my phone using the stock launcher I am able to have 6 icons in the dock area, but at some point that was limited to four. Is there a setting that I am missing? Thanks for your help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
What is the link to this kernel? Does it support ART?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] damnitdave:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2299342&page=5

post#45

Been running it with ART all day today and not an issue yet
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Look under original development for kernel. Read the entire op before flashing. Also it is art compatible. While this kernel is for aosp and touchwiz the current 1.2 version still has issues with touchwiz.

Did you change the dpi or launcher? Both of those will effect the amount of icons in the dock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
Nope, I was just setting up the phone, installing apps etc and it just changed on me. I did not change the DPI.

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------

I am still having a heck of a time finding the extended reboot options to reboot recovery. I never had this issue with previous versions... I have enabled developer options...

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 PM ----------

Thanks, I appear to lose root after flashing this kernel... I am done spamming this forum for today. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
Stupid question but u hit on off button and option for reboot hit and it should give three options and recovery is one. That's the way mine is and I didn't do anything special
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jrebo:
Check developers options for advanced reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
I don't see Advanced Reboot under settings/developer options...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
have a new build uploading. close to their "Stable" status release

its a pre code freeze build, so it's gotta be close

EDIT: OP / Second Post Updated w/link

running great. Enjoy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
Correct, only difference is it says your phone will reboot instead of giving me options. I was always able to find the extended reboot options in dev settings in all of the other versions of SlimKat 4.4, but not this one. I did a full wipe as instructed then enabled developer settings and looked in there but it was not an option. The only option related to power menu is bug reporting.

Also, has anyone else tried flashing devil kernel on this rom? When I flash it I am no longer able to run root apps like the devil app or titanium backup as the apps say they can't get root privileges.

Thanks for your help guys!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
It's not under Dev options... It's under security.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
That's awesome. Hopefully they add theming back soon then. Rocking new build and it's amazing
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ttkyles:
Wow! I flashed back to stock...took the ota to 4.3...then grabbed the gear...it's nice...guess I'll have to curtail my flashing for a while.

SlimKat Build 3 Posted, Second Post. Deodexed. Must flash Slim Gapps after

Happy Valentine's Day Android...I love you

Enjoy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
Cab these be dirty flashed? Or is a clean install recommended.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
If you're on one of the last two Deodexed Builds (which use the same Slim gapps package) should be good with a dirty flash.

They will be Updating the gapps package soon I would assume as they generally do when a new Build comes out.

But then again it's not even posted on the site yet :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
Yeah I'm on the pcfr build. So I'll try dirty. If I have any issues I'll fresh install.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Just bought a new comp just for builds

#progress
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] masber2000:
No service or data

After clean install (factory reset and system) in TWRP, am not getting any network service. No signals at all. When I go to mobile networks in settings, the "Network operators" field is grayed out. When I click "Carrier Settings" it gives me an "Unfortunately, the process.com.android.phone has stopped". Any workaround for this? If there isn't any, I'll have to uninstall- something I don't want to do!

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Yes there is...read the blurb at the top of Post #2 where you got the download link from.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Installed build 3 yesterday. First of all let me just say it runs beautifully, fast and responsive and no errors.

However, I had pretty significant battery drain after flashing. Then I charged it up last night while watching a movie. Took it off the charger and went to bed with 100% charge. 7 hours later I've lost 32% without ever touching it. I do have art enabled. Otherwise no new apps, on TW I would only lose 1% an hour overnight. Anybody had this issue or have any ideas? Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
My battery life has been exceptional on build 3. I am also using ART. Did you do a full wipe?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
I flashed dirty over the pcfr and have great battery. After 8 hours of sleeping I only lose about 4-5% battery tops. And I had gotten 26 hours of battery with around 5 hours screen on time using devil kernel on the devilq governor.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Yep, full wipe. Came from a TW rom, used cwm to flash. In gsam it shows the kernel as the culprit with tons of wake locks.

How do I do a screenshot in slim?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
Try DevilKernel to confirm if it is a kernel issue, although I did not have a battery issue on either kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] crking1980:
Press and hold power and volume down at the same time
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Macguyver:
Devil didn't help much. I did another full wipe and refreshed the rom and it was a little better but still about 3% an hour. The other problem I have is I need to be able to tether via USB with this for work and I have an older laptop that doesn't have blue tooth. In the past my tethering app has worked fine in the absence of a hotspot plus it will keep the phone charged. On 4.4 so far my tethering app won't connect. Appreciate the help, but unfortunately it looks like I'm going to have to return to TW to be able to do that. Thanks guys.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stanggt1313:
The native WiFi tethering works if that is an option... Still not sure why your battery life is so poor. What governor did you use while on Devil?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] masber2000:
I'm having similar issues with battery life - and no voicemail. The hotspot works well for me though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Maxx134:
so lastest is 7.8 7.28 ?

and latest beta is 4.4.2 ?

too many links here and those download sites so many false download buttons! :p

I will try this rom next just download and like to say thanks anyway but was a pain to sort out.

I got the rom from the other site at teamvenum
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Latest is in second post.

Build 3.1 just finished actually on my new setup so that will be up soon too.

But yeah, I did my best to have All downloads available. Anyone can download any Slim build I've ever done on the Team Site.

So yeah, sorry for making so much available :)

Believe me, it would have been easier deleting every old build to replace with new, but I thought some would appreciate having all available.

And you don't need to give me a thanks anyway and tell me it's a pain. Spending thousands upon thousands of hours doing stuff for free to hear that options is a pain is....A pain. So I feel ya

And I only deal with my team site, and dev host. So I'm not sure what you're referring to when you say you ran into fake download buttons. I specifically have it setup so my users never deal with that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Arjohns:
I actually like it the way you've got it. I love being able to bounce around seeing which works best for me. Like I flashed the last one before SlimKat started and while it runs awesome, I got reboots every so often. So from there it was just going backwards till I found one that was stable for me. And while SlimKat works perfectly, the lack of theme chooser has kinda put me off of it for the time being. So having all the older builds has been exceptional for me. Yet I still flash every update just to play with it for a few days to see what's new. Lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sleshepic:
Thanks, its appreciated. And not to you specifically Ar, cus I know you follow all this stuff. But I think many are being way to hard on the Slim team in general over the non-inclusion of theme chooser in 4.4.2. If it were solid, they would include it - that I have found is the way with the VERY hard working Slim team. I have been doing regular PAC builds (another incredibly hard working team which I am blessed to be somewhat close with) and theme chooser has been an ongoing issue having work properly. It simply is not a "Daily Driver" ready feature with many 4.4.2 roms yet. When it is ready and stable, it will be included in SlimKat. I could add it myself, but it has had same issues as PAC. Believe me, I'm sure they want it back asap too. Can you imagine how many emails they're getting about it? Lol.

Anyway, as i said I have a whole new comp to run builds on so I can work double time! First new build from it upcoming...

And believe me, I know things could be organized better. I work 55 hrs a week and any time I have for android is spent on dev'ing, theming etc. Unfortunately organizing the site etc has to be an afterthought. So please bear with that for the sake of new releases.

And for those that have donated, you have no idea how much it is appreciated and certainly has continued projects like these. Thank you, you know who you are

Only question I have is how I get Gmail, play store etc. themed like the other apps in real dark slim mode. I read about how to a while back and for the life of me I cannot find where that information is at.

Thanks again for the hard work, and I appreciate having all of the downloads available as well as I like to jump back and forth from time to time.

Hey [MENTION=4302068]sleshepic[/MENTION], I'd have to admit this is by far the most stable kitkat rom out!

This is super stable an amazing smooth thanks for your hard work that you put into this rom
