wipe internal SD too? = everything? and also try suggested 11/26 gapps?????
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] veebomb:
Just dirty flashed over 4.4.015, everything seems good so far
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chunkybudz:
Yes, wiped internal. Sorry for not being clear.

Wiped everything except external card.

Have also tried a few different gapps, including the one you mentioned.

Boot logo was allowed to sit for up to 30 mins.

Someone talked about flashing rom, rebooting, then flashing gapps. Worth a shot?

---------- Post added at 02:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 AM ----------

Also, this has happened with every 4.3 and above rom I've used.

Think it's more my ignorance than anything else lse, just wish I could figure it out... It's forced me to stay on 4.1.2 for a long time now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rocket42:
I did it finally flashed 4.4!! I FAC reset and wiped cache and dalvik... did not wipe it SD. Flash ROM flashed wills gapps on page 477. All is well booted right up.

However, did not know that will meant the fix to the keyboard was to remove aosp and replace with Google...darn it... does anyone have a working 4.4 aosp keyboard??? This one won't theme when I change themes :((((

Oh...and for the life of me I can't get rid of halo

That's your problem. Your using next launcher. You have to use the Google launcher to get it to talk back. That's a launcher feature from the Google launcher. Icon for the launcher looks like home button icon that's a blue circle.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Senyaka:
If you have soft buttons light installed or a similar like app, it conflicts with android in a weird way. They somehow block sideloads. Don't know why. They just do.

updating to 4.4

Hey guys, about to finally update Beanstalk 4.3 --> newest 4.4. Been search but still with a couple questions...

1) I see I need to update TWRP. Do I just flash this zip in my current TWRP to update?

2) With the updated TWRP can I still revert to backed up 4.3 if needed?

Thanks!

I want to start off with complementing the chef on a ROM well done.

It's got everything I need in a ROM with none of the fluff I don't.

Hella bright flashlight = Check

Spiffy Features = Check

and above all...Stability.

I do have one question...with the 12/14 release...should I use the Full Gapps or the Micro Gapps for best results?

I'm currently running the 12/04 release and had to use the full Gapps.

Thanks again and keep up the good work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Old Man Dave:
Use the twrp from the op to move to 4.4.

I had problems with it going back to a nandroid of the 4.3 so I refreshed 2.6.3.0 and all problems went away.

I don't know about anyone else, but the op twrp wouldn't do a backup of the 4.3 rom either...

Just what I found.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] CyclingVinnie:
geez
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] storm_rider_1:
Clean and dirty install just refer to the way the rom was installed.

When you flashed the rom, did and do a factory reset and wipe cache/dalvik before you flashed?. -- that is a clean install

If you just flashed the rom, without doing a factory reset and only wiped cache/dalvik or didnt. - that is a dirty install, just because things in the rom are not working does not mean it was a "dirty install"

I have no idea why the broken battery bar? If you did a dirty install, I would suggest doing a clean install, if you did a clean install I would try flashing it again, that's the best advice I can give you. Maybe someone else can help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoOsT:
Best advice is clean install always if u have issues. Try the stock theme see if it fixes battery bar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] willl03:
Battery dipped because you did not do a clean install, battery was used in recovery and your battery stats are messed up in android. Do a full charge and it will be back to normal

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zugshad:
Ok.. so caving in and going to give the rom a try...since I have owned my Note2 it have been on TW based (mainly been with CR Ace)... I used to love using CM/AOSP on my s3... since i have not yet used an AOSP, my guess is that i cant use my Samsung apps like S-Note, and S-Planner? Those are the only 2 that i really use.. from my understanding, i can use the Google calendar to replace s-planner (i think i save all my dates to my gmail account part of it anyway,. so Google calendar should sync right back up right? )... my main question comes with S-Note... i did see the link to Papyrus in the OP and i am going to give it a try... what I am mainly wondering is can i get all my saved notes from S-note into it or is there any way (if i cant do that) to get S-Note working with this?? been reading a lot and have not yet seen this ...so figured I would ask since not the most experienced on this yet...

appreciate the support..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ultwill:
Okay so granted I run my phone super slim/minimalist, the battery life on this rom thus far, under the same conditions I run every other rom, is actually the best I've seen by a great margin. Those battery stats are with 2 hours on screen time, and that's during the day while I'm outside, so I need high brightness, and mobile data or wifi always on. I know the joke is "well some people use their phones", I do use it but I like to see how long I can stretch the battery and this is insane. I highly recommend the greenify app in the OP as I believe it has helped quite a bit as well.

I might do a full discharge and start stacking on widgets and put this thing through a real load and see what it can handle.

Thanks for this rom Will. It's a beast! :cool:

I noticed that my battery was draining incredibly fast as well, yet my friend who has the same rom wasn't getting eaten up like mine. Noticed I had Google Now active. I wonder if that's what has been eating my battery too. Went from 100% at 8PM down to 20% at 7AM the next day.

Turning off my Google Now and charging back up to full, let's see if I have better battery performance over night.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eozdalga:
Thanks I use TB for everything as well. There are some apps (work related) that may not work despite TB. That's why I'm trying not to factory reset. But if needed, I will. Just wondering if it's a must to wipe everything. Based on OP, doesn't see to be so. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SlakWReX:
No
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mashuto:
Advanced settings was used to add back features that were taken out of the CM builds towards the end of 4.3, such features included being able to set the backlight for the hardware menu and back key as well as things like the color scenario for the screen. Disable ad-block will do just that, disable the ad-block allowing ads back onto your phone. There may be a time when you need them for things to work properly, but otherwise, I don't know the advantage.

However, I am pretty sure both of those were for the 4.3 releases, so if you are doing 4.4 I don't know if they work, and in the case of the backlight and the color scenario, both of those are included as default in the rom with the new version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] manicalchemist:
Awesomesauce...thanks!

I know you're asking about 4.3 to 4.4 but I just flashed the new 12/14 4.4 release over the 12/4 4.4 relase (wiped Only the caches) no problems. Just make sure you always make a back up of your current ROM, update your TWRP to the 4.4 version and use the Full Gapps.

Good Luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rocket42:
It's up to you if you go from 4.3-4.4 without full wipe but I don't advise it. 4.4 to 4.4 sure... just my two cents.
