Although I was excited to see the launch date for note 3 with 32 and 64gb flavors, that faux leather battery cover kills it for me. Note 2 seems to be a keeper for as long ad people keep making roms for it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Obsidian...:
I agree. I don't have a good feeling about that Qualcomm love the 3 is getting. Hopefully when we get 4.3 and KK they don't do any crazy voodoo crap with the exynos securities.

Next question........

What are the differences between the Note 2 on Verizon (my current) and the Note 2 on T-Mobile. Easily rooted? Boot loader? Any missing features like the Verizon variant??

Also anyone who is currently with T-Mobile, how is the coverage and data speeds for you? Yes I know the last one is subject to location but I'm just looking for a blanket outlook. Thanks in advance.......
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nicwall01:
Crazy question that I hope is off topic enough to meet the standards of this thread. So, is there a way to flash multiple roms and access the different roms on startup? Like having Linux and Windows on the same machine and choosing one or another on startup?

You can dual boot with devil kernel and recovery. Here's the link for that: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2299261

Or, this is the method I prefer, if you have an external sd card you can technically save nandroids (full OS backups) and switch to them from recovery. It's a lengthier process, but you can speed it up by automating the steps using the ROM toggler by eboody: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2376860

Here is some helpful stuff for you guys. Yes this is random and thats how it is here! :) Once the format and material is gathered Obsidians OP will be gloated with links, info, news, whatever! Have a look at the Bionic thread for more details!

Any who! Found this toolkit by [MENTION=894259]mskip[/MENTION] for our Galaxy Note 2 devices! Here is the original thread! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2052788

I do recommend all users to familiarize themselves with ADB and fastboot. Because a toolkit wont always work and sometimes wont be able to save your a$$ all the time! This is solely for those who want to save some key strokes and get things done faster. However please know what your doing before pressing buttons! Then again if your a total NOOB and just want the easy way out then have at it! LMAO!

I found it useful as it downloads images for you with no effort. Check it out and be sure to thank mskip for his hard work! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
I have to say that I do not encourage anyone to use that toolkit. It has been quoted several times that it includes a prerelease version of software that makes it impossible to do anything with. Once installed you cannot odin to another version. You cannot use vzw otas to upgrade version. Casual will fail to unlock device. You are stuck on that software version.

If you are going to use that toolkit, you have been warned.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
I do agree that it is a little behind the times. As with anything on this site that you can use to modify your device the statement "You have been warned" always applies! lol

Some of the features like logcat functions and some miscellaneous settings work just fine.

As always know what can happen if something were to go wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BoostedB18C:
I don't remember what the software version is. I also don't remember what you have to do to cause it to install. I know, I'm being a lot of help :D I'm going to try to find it and I'll give an update.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmo220:
I used it for a day. It was pretty good. People who like things like AOKP that have tons of somewhat useless options will love it. It had an option where you can see the data speed in the status bar which I loved. I asked Beans if he could add it and he said he loved it too and would look into it. Other than that nothing I use that I can't get on Beans' ROM, but I think there were things on Beans' ROM I like that it didn't have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Thanks! Yea i did hear he was implementing the network speed into the status bar in B22. Just waiting to see what he has cooking for the next build! Very anxiously of course! LOL. I think i just need to flash something and ill be okay for a whlie! :victory:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cmo220:
I look around occasionally at the other ROMs too but usually don't bother flashing anything. I used to be the everyday crackflasher type but it's nice to stay on the same setup for a few weeks now. I also have no interest in trying AOSP on this phone, and that's even with me never using multi window or any of the motion or page buddy touchwiz features.

I do miss real AOSP on my phone though, but this is quite close. I might end up holding on to this phone for another year and switching carriers to get the nexus phone that comes out next year.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
To be honest i enjoy having something so stable and rock solid like Jelly Beans. Sometimes i think i just like change. So i try icon packs. Some themes. Coming from a Bionic im not used to a ROM running for days on end and not causing any issues! Sure once and a whlie it seems like my phone is out to get me but it clears its self up! LOL
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drew_p:
I've tried it and trans nebula. They both are well made and have tons of options. The floating windows are a nice touch but I honestly couldn't get over the overall size of everything. I have pretty good vision and at times it was a little hard to read. But that's just my 2 cents. Again, they are both very well made roms. I just seem to not be able to get away from beans. It's like an ex girlfriend that you just can't seem to leave alone.......but this time in a good way lol

Is there a way to get Mass Storage Mode working on the Note 2? I tried using USB Mass Storage Enabler, but my PC recognizes it as an optical/CD drive and doesn't let me write to it, which seems to be an issue on the Verizon Note 2, but I'm running Beans v21 ROM at the moment.. Copying many files over using MTP is painfully slow for me.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bladerealm124:
I'm not sure if this is a beans ROM issue because there was one member that posted who was able to get this to work on another ROM (specifically by using the lte on/off app which force closes on beans). Here is the issue:

I'm looking for a way to "lock 4g" by most likely toggling off 2g/3g temporarily. I know I would not be able to use voice or text while off but this feature would be incredibly helpful. The problem is that I'm in a low 4g area frequently which works fine for a few minutes with great speeds but my phone frequently decides to switch back to 3g. It will sometimes switch back to 4g again on its own but occasionally the only way to get it back is to toggle airplane mode on/off. It appears that sometimes it "prefers" the slightly stronger 3g signal but the speeds are so slow with 3g that I get frustrated trying to load a web page. Another member confirmed this "3g preference" as well.

I used to be able to easily accomplish this on my Thunderbolt with the 4g lte on/off app but it appears it is not compatible with beans and force closes when attempting to open, other users confirmed this as well. However, one user on a different ROM tested this app and it worked perfectly for him, leading me to believe that it is a beans compatibility issue.

If anyone has any other solutions or a way to make the 4g lte on/off app work properly it would be much appreciated. Thanks

Would a sound mod help with tinny speakerphone sound or is that a characteristic of the note 2 speaker?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sshafranko:
Not sure what your asking. Sry

Sent from my SCH-I605 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dooku77:
I guess what I am trying to ask is, is it a characteristic of the note 2 to have such a tinny sounding speaker. I was speaking to someone yesterday on speakerphone and about 10 minutes into the conversation it started sounding like the speaker was blown. I had it turned up about half way. I rarely use speakerphone for conversations and almost never for music. I don't have my notification or ringer maxed out either. I don't know anyone else with this phone so I have nothing to compare it to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
I have seen alot of people complaining of blowin Note2 speakers.

What kernel are you using? I would look into compatable sound mods thru STweaks if using perseus, or thru VooDoo or your most favorite application. See if you can get the sound to come back.

If not it may be blown!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dooku77:
I'm using beans stock kernel. Are there any sound mods compatible with that kernel? Would just be my luck the speaker is blown. That's just the kind of day I'm having. Thanks Freddy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Hmm with the stock kernel.... you should be able to get away with using VooDoo sound

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.controlapp&hl=en

I personally am not running Stock kernel at this moment
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dooku77:
Just looked at it now. Not compatible with device. Let me hop over to b22 thread real quick and put it out there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Awe well $hit i didnt even notice! I just opened it on the browser on my PC. OOPS! SORRY!

For a fact i know Stweaks made my music sound 10x better on Speaker, Headphone, BT.

If you want a quick trial it should only take a few minutes to download and flash Perseus and attempt STweaks.

Download viper4androidfx. Works with any kernel and better than most kernel dependant sound apps. Free in playstore. Its in japanese but once you download it will be in english. Choose the last driver on the bottom and reboot. Adjust and have fun with your new boom box.

I thought I read that Perseus was updated, I could be wrong. I'm just looking for another kernel that will give me some stellar battery life. Stock kernel has been good to me but the last 2 days I can't get my ram down below 800mb even after closing all the apps. Last weekend I was getting down about 470mb after closing everything down. I checked os monitor, wake lock detector and BBS. I use greenify for all the other apps. It all started after I downloaded viper.

Will the perseus kernel work with android tweaker pro?

The reason I ask is because I need to boost my cell signal strength at school as tmo sux ONLY there in my area.

To the point where I can not make or recieve calls/texts...LAME becaue the school wifi drops every time the the screen locks....

IF no,

can anyone suggest a kernel for the t889 on tmo running completely stock,rooted, 4.1.2 rom version.

TO reiterate i am on jb 4.1.2 stock rom and am rooted.

I want to flash akernal that will let me tweak battery life, and cell signal. I know android pro (app) will give me those controles with the proper kernel.

It seems the franco could do it, but i can't seem to find that it is OK with the STOCK ROM it seems I would have to flash custom rom of some sort even it it is deonized and oxided (LOL on the spell to lazy to look it up atm)

THANK YOU ALL

sorry for the double post
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
I ran thru the app for you and it seems that it functions with perseus kernel however for changing the settings in particular to what ur looking for it should work. I would say give it a shot and worse case scenario if it fails flash a custom rom. I would suggest jelly beans rom for starters. Boat load of features and very stable! Just remember to always make a nandroid backup before you start making changes in the app. Just in case it goes south on you in the end. Let me know what you find!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dhangejr:
got the nandorid! Thanks!

I really wanna keep it stock 4.1.2...Also worried about efs backup not working...There is nothing definitive regarding this...Upon futher reading it seems flashing the kernal has/can cause the imei to go poof as well...

I do think I am gonna flash a kernel but it wont be till next week wehn I get back from this important trip

Thanks again

d

ps what do you mean ran thought he app? I have been looking it's features over, not that I understand them all completely but Im a hands on kind of guy and def able!

A real question I have is does the persuas kernel support enhancing the cell signal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] freddy0872:
Do u know if the user that claimed it worked was running an AOSP based rom or TW?

Thanks! I tried moon last night but it was like 2am and I had to work this morning so I didn't play much with it. From what I gathered it had alot of features and it worked very well! Switched back to beans for the night and today at work since I know it runs well for while I'm working. I might give it another go today after work.

I've tried trans nebula but one thing I can't take is the multi window. I can handle the split screen like beans. But those smaller windows are to small for me. I know that can be changed if I want to use full screen or split. But I always think I'm just so stuck on beans I run back to it. That's why I'm wanting to reach out and see what all u think about the other developers. I think they all deserve a fair run.

Let's start another rant along side this and talking about dpi.

What's everyone using for their DPI for the system? Or more common apps like messaging or their launcher if your not changing system ui.

The bad/good thing about this whole device is there is not one area that isn't customizable! No one phone should be alike any more!

So I've been having many problems with my swipe, I keep getting an fc with everything (and I've done permission fix, cache clearing and reinstalls), my battery is dying faster and the volume is at latest I've heard it. I've tried to unroot, but the computer won't find the files.

Swipe: never gives me the words in looking for and won't allow me to add words, also won't let me curse.

Battery: under the battery screen, it never restarts and keeps saying 7hours and done odd minutes.

I keep getting FC randomly and I've tried everything. There's more but that's most frustrating.

I have a "modded for my own use" version of the old Phone Info app that is no longer on Playstore that you can toggle to any network on my Verizon Note 2 (It accesses the extended network options). The only issue is that I have to use 4G toggle from the Playstore to go back to stock settings....so it is a two app solution (Your can just go into Settings on the phone and change it back but the 4G Toggle makes it quicker). I can post my modded version....If it doesn't violate any policies. My mods are basically re-icon'd and a re-name to fit my needs.
