Just thought I'd give my general experience as it might be helpful for those using Tmobile T889 version.

Basically works quite nicely but not all apps will appear as floating window.

What I did: (BTW I use Philz recovery version 4.35. Pretty old by most standards!)

0)In anticipation of ui fc I used root explorer and extracted SystemUi.apk from Moon V2 zip file, also backed up apn.

1)Back up current rom via CWM

2)Wipe Data/Factory reset

3)Wipe Cache Partition

4)Wipe Dalvik Cache

5)Installed Moon rom V2 zip

6)In Aromal selected full wipe (I guess done again...) CRT off. but none of the tweaks, kept same modem and kernal, selected lower db version of two sound boost choices, selected Xperia option (has walkman) selected all the Tablet versions of app.

7)Did not reboot but went back to recovery

8)Installed latest Tmobile modem

9)Installed Tmoble stock kernal

10) Rebooted: Spends about a minute on Samsung Galaxy Note 2 logo. Then about 2 to 3 minutes on Moon Alien.

11)There will be a ui system fcs. Just keep going.

12)After Note 2 initiation process, go to play store and get Titianium Back up pro.

13)Reinstalled root explorer and APN back up and restore apps

14)Overwrote SystemUI.apk with the extracted and change permissions as suggested earlier, rebooted to recovery, wiped cached and dalvik cached. system fc gone! (Big thanks to payazo915, slice2011, and lectricbluejase)

First impressions is that Moon Rom V2 is smooth and quite responsive. Great Job grilleld!

While all apps do not work as floating/resizable, here is a partial list that did for me

contacts (tablet version)

phone

you tube

my files (tablet version)

Default Browser

Gallery

Messaging (tablet version)

Music Player (tablet version)

Video Player

I also installed a tablet email version I have but it is a little buggy (settings causes crashes) but still usable

Some apps from google play that worked floating window

turbo client

And FTP

bvnc pro (allows you to run linux on android in a floating window)

total commander

Boat Browser

Office Suite pro

Ez PDF Reader

You can also try installing the Galaxy Note 8 floating keyboard but remember to turn off Key-tab sound in advanced settings! Down side is that due to conflict, Snote will fc. (any suggestion here would be appreciated!)

Also from Note 8 (you can find here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2217662&highlight=record )

World Clock

Snote with idea sketch (This version mostly works with the floating keyboard except voice recording will fc)

Anyways hope this helps fellow Tmobilers!

EDIT: I'll add apps that work in floating/resizable windows as I find them.

I have written many times that I can not upload my 7105 V2! Different ways-wipe before and after installation. No reboot after installing the rom. But all the time as wgram rom stranger's face appears, and so all the time and the rom does not start. I did format before and after, cleaned dalvik. And still the same. Is there any way to install rom to 7105? Sorry for my english
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] henrypootel:
Volume Way too High!

I installed using the Sony walkman option, and without that volume hacks, but everything is still far too loud, even on the lowest setting.

Is there any way to modify the volume levels manually?

I also want to flash this but have some questions. You said you initially extracted the system ui from version 2 is that correct or was it version 1 you meant to say. Also which T-Mobile modem did you flash and does it matter what kernel you are using

V2

Doesn't make sense to me, it's still the same file, but if it helps...

Hi. I used the ui from version 2. Both Modem and Kernal are for T889UVBMD1 and are found here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2102380

I should point out that while the steps I wrote up were sufficient to get things working for me they may not all (besides the obvious stuff) be necessary. Some steps are born more so out of habit. This is what happens when you don't really know what you are doing (like me!). If you already have the Tmobile modem you may not need to flash it again. I'm not sure if flashing moon rom (or most roms) effects your current modem or kernal. Perhaps someone knowledgeable can chime in here and explain things!

Hi, Can someone help and tell me what i m doing wrong?

Currently after installing rom it boots to the N7105 logo and then goes Black Screen..

and never move on to anything else for the next 5-10min... = Bricked?

I have:

-International N7105 note2

-Australia sim card (TPG/OPTUS network)

-coming from AOSP rom (illusion ROM)

The is what i did:

0. Boot to Phils Recovery

1. Wipe trio - data/factory/cache/delv cache

2. install MoonRom V2 from zip, and goes into aroma installer

3. chose full wipe again, and not backup efs

4. "No" for diff modem/kernel/recovery

4. chose nove launcher

5. "No" for everything except Sony Xperia Z pack

"No" tweaks/apps were ticked

6. Stock Lockscreen/Moon theme

7. Stock Play Store / Black settings/Stock contact/music/task/messenger/calculator/myfiles

8. NO crt off

9. yes reboot now

10. Screen stays on BLACK after initial samsung N7105 logo.

:crying::eek::confused:
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] risoobeon:
Did you also wipe system during first wipe or just the three you mentioned? Plus I didn't reboot from aroma go back into recovery and try reboot from there
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Framedtrash:
You need to change your kernel

Since u didn't select the option to change your kernel your trying to boot a Samsung ROM with a AOSP kernel

Its not going to work until you change the kernel
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] aliguu:
i did try to go back to recovery without rebooting straight after aroma install, but same Black screen.

so ur saying my kernel got changed from stock to aosp when i went to illusion rom? so i need to fall back to a 4.1.2 kernel for rom?

out of the options given in the moon rom, which kernel is the best to choose? i think it has like 5-6 ones to choose, saber/pegasus etc?

thanks~!
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] risoobeon:
I would try stock first so you can get it to boot then you can change if you want later
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Framedtrash:
Just use stock
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] hingerl:
Finaly I had time to install V2, and the trick whit changing the SystemUI.apk worked...

so far all good, even the freezing issue is gone...

Now I just need more time to resore the system...;)

Thanks for your your effort and good work...:good::good::good:
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Evilspawn:
The att users, what kernel u guys using? Trying out faux right now.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] aliguu:
Great now its working after flashed stock kernel.

however when i first boot it in, it already says " system UI has stopped.." and tho system still work but no notification bar and swipe down ability ..:crying:

so i follow a fix from a fellow recommended here above/few pages back.. and now it works all good after i rewrite system.apk and reboot! :)

GG!

sorry noob question..

to just flash the a particular kernel prior to installing a particular rom, do i just do it via ODIN and then flash rom via custom recovery?

so for example, i m on aosp rom, and if i need to revert back to a stock custom rom, i'll go dl the stock kernel from samsung, and flash the component via odin PDA, and once done just boot to recovery and install desire stock custom rom?
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] JeramyEggs:
Most kernels have been packaged in zip from to be flashed through your recovery of choice. (Twrp, cwm, philz)

No statusbar

Hi there,

I have installed the rom and I had v1 and I loved it and for some reason there is no statusbar with the v2 install I have. Can you help me with that.

This is my SS of the home screen.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] eyupwolf:
Hi just wondering if anyone can help me I have being trying for days to get this rom to work on my N7105 Note 2. I've tried various kernel and modem options available on this mod with the defult options, but no matter what I do I can't get the rom to work. I either get a blank black screen or screen pops up with system ui has crashed and it is asking me to enter as password to use default device password? I've not got the sdcard encrypted but I did many roms ago if thats related? I've tried my password from them.

I'm coming from a CM.10.1 nightly, and can flash back to that ok so my device isn't bricked. Driving me crazy want to settle with a nice rom and this one looks so nice but can't get it to boot past this silly password arg! Hehe. I'm on t-mobile in uk.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] chrisa887:
Well if you trybreflashing snd you get the systemui FC justbignore it and ser phone up. Keep hitting ok ok ok then after it boots uo just reboot into recovery and fix permissions and it goes away. Might get it 1 time after reboot but it goes away
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] hingerl:
You have to unpack the rom on your pc, search for sytemUI.apk, move it to your phone and move it whit

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] lpsi2000:
Okay, that make more sense now. Thanks for confirming you were on V1. I tried it on V2
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Broomfundel:
I tried on version 2. It did not work properly after just switching the files. Did not launch properly and not all apps were shown in the list. However it sorted itself out as I ran through a few bits. Here is what I did in order.

1) Swap SystemUI.apk files, and amend permissions.

2) Reboot

3) Realise multi window did not work but task switching was faster.

4) Swap UI to Phablet and (I started on Tablet)

5) Find everything is the same.

6) Swap to Phone UI

7) Try the traditional multi window found it set to off.

8) Turned it on and multi window worked.

9) Went back to Tablet, Wiped the MW Apps Manager , Fixed permissions in recovery.

10) After that reboot, everything was working fine,

I suspect, wipe MW Apps Manager and Fix permissions in recovery is all that's needed.

Give it a whirl.

Fantastic ROM. Thanks for all your hard work. I got a few FC at first but haven't in a while so hopefully they're gone (SGH-i317 N7105 on ATT LTE).

Question though... is there any way to undo the add-ons I installed when I originally flashed the ROM? The volume increase mod makes things blare a bit too much.

si when u flash test.zip please put systemui from yesterday to system/app

yes, phone boot up but right, after SystemUI crashes, then reboots

I am running out to do some food shopping right now, but later when I return I will restoring V2 then flash test.zip, before reboot, replace SystemUI with the one from yesterday.
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Broomfundel:
OK, SystemUi.apk from the other day makes no difference. I have tried several ways of flashing. Clean / Dirty. Files swapped in zip / after zip. Reflash v2 and then flash Test.zip and then replace SustemUi.apk before boot.

Alas everything is the same. Just after boot, with no obvious reason from logcat. Reboots.

Not sure what else to try now. Going back to last backup for now.

[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] Ramidalf:
Dected the problem of bootloop on V1 [V2]

So, i copied each file individually.

framework2.jar gave me bootloop.

I removed that file from test.zip and it does not bootloop anymore. So i can flash test.zip over V1 and it works fine.

Did not tested much though..

V2 also boots without framework2.jar but floating windows dont work in all apps that is why i used V1.

Update: Actually, floating window future disappears in V1 for some apps
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] hingerl:
Sorry I'm perhaps a bit late, but I tried this systemUI yesterday, hat now fc or other probs,

the only thing I discovered was in tablet mode, in the status bar, the icons return and home is not there, (see pic)

and another thing, but that was in the previous systemUI file as well, the menue icon and the little arrow to open up the

floating windows apps lying on top of each other...
[Galaxy Note II N7105 Android Development] hingerl:
So, I flashed the test file but it doesn't work for me,

it boots, then the screen goes black for a few seconds, then I see the start screen and the messege

"unfortunately the sytemUI has stoped" for a moment and then the system reboots again...
