Good morning , have you guys seen the phoenix 4.3 rom? It looks amazing with all of the custom options. I'm sure u guys can do even more or better but looking at that ROM makes me eager to try it:) the only thing that worries me that if I don't like it, it is not so easy to return to this 4.1.2 ROM. I'm waiting (Im)patiently for u guys

Alliance Rom baby!!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] squicky:
How is the testing progress sparky? :) It's so silent here that it's almost unbearable :p
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
It's coming on mate....but slowly :( not enough Alliance in it yet for release...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AndyMclamb:
any chance To Alliance rom on Galaxy Note 3 ? just changed and missing t:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Probably, I got one too but my commitment is still with n7100. Lemme finish this rom then I'll make a start...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Anyone still here?

Note 2 4.3 should be going live beta today :) got a few mods in already...rest will come as ota...

Also, N3 base going live too...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] JezzeB:
Wow! I'm on phoenix now but maybe come back to you guys

Phoenix rom baby!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] gamesz2:
Time to come back too this rom haha
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
We were always here... Quiet and satisfied with last Alliance Rom you released. Recently, a number of stable 4.3 Roms have been made, hence many may have gone on to flash and experience those (DN3 & Phoenix come to mind).

Having said that, Alliance V4 was one of, if not, the best 4.1.2 Roms available according to my recollections. If you can pull it off again this time round on 4.3, there's some good competition to be had and we, as flashers, are going to enjoy every bit of it.

Good luck & cheers.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] :
I can't wait to see it in action!! Will you include note 3 apps, guys?

Good luck for this next masterpiece!! Cheers!

Note 2 N7100 - Dr. Ketan v6.1 ROM [MENTION=353015]240[/MENTION] dpi - MK4 base - Devil2 Kernel
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] squicky:
I've almost lost hope that it will be out :p Been checking this thread like a maniac for the last three weeks :D Thanks for all the hard work guys!!!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Thanks to Open Project, N3 apps are included...

There's the link until i update op tomoz...

Follow flash instructions in op :D

Please remember, this is a beta...

Don't flash ota stuff yet, except for themes it's all for 4.1.2!
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] squicky:
Does it mean you're gonna cook new final version soon, or it's already a stable base and we can use it on a daily basis and only some add-ons need fixing and they will be available through OTA without the need to wipe data to flash them?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Already stable, will add new mods through ota...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] squicky:
OK, ROM flashed. I've had to flash wifi fix to get wifi running (don't know about 2 fixes and MJ5 bootloader - wifi patch was enough). For now it's running good. Tried to flash Devil Kernel through ROM Customizer, but phone didn't reboot afterwards. I like new animation and startup music but it would look better on the black background.

After I switched to airplane mode I can't switch it off.

CRT animation doesn't seem to work either.

After 8 reboots, black screen and crash. I don't know if it's because of Devil Kernel, but I didn't tweak anything. This doesn't look good :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Op states what is and is not working...

I've not tried any custom kernels, have you reflashed with stock?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] djoni_gitara:
wohoo alliance rom baby, I remember great time in n7000 forum.

one observation, why not use new mk9 for a base?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
I've been in a dark cave for weeks...wasn't aware of new firmware :D

EDIT: just checked sammobile, not seeing mk9...i must be going blind!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Goldie:
Restore your backup then read the OP before trying again.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
There's only one stock dme6 kernel, there may be some customs based on it though. But it's really the modems that are the concern
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Did you fail to read the very detailed op?

You probably need to flash repack b....what firmware were you on before alliance?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Guys, serious question....

Is op that hard/difficult to understand?

What are the modems to be weary of?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] :

carrier name on notification panel causing systemui freeze/crash. edge zoom toggle not working etc.

This would help that people don't ask about same things over and over again.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Nice of you to ask, man--trying out a bunch of 4.3 ROMs. Flashed quite a few and finally stayed with DN3 v.3.1.1--very good quality.

Looking forward to yours--will try to find the time to switch shortly.

It's nice to know that you're into 4.3 with Note3 apps--that's the winning combo at the moment.

Way more user problems/questions due to the changes brought about in the folder structure--some folks have problems, mostly down to refusing to do full wipes and getting duplicated data, amongst other mistakes.[Bootloader issues, etc.. wifi loss, etc..]

DN3 is a very smooth, well built ROM, though--as I'm sure yours will be.

Good Luck.

EDIT--I am sure that you are aware of this--but, the download link [Hostgator] is giving a 404 error--file not found.

OOPS--you are well aware--just found the temporary link a couple of pages back, duh!!

Thanks for the update. Works getting a bit slow coming up to Christmas, time to play :angel:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
You're tearing me up here, Sparky... I jumped on Phoenix Rom (XXUEMK4) recently with the MJ5 bootloader and 4.3 firmware (Indian version I believe).

Was just beginning to settle in and then you join the party...

...The game changer...

It seems like you're going ahead with MK9 (European - smoother?). Some have reported MK9 to have somewhat better performance. That and it's you who is developing the Rom... So far in Android life, Alliance has been my all-time favourite.

Decisions...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
so far mk9 has been rock solid, even with n3 apps...just ironing out a couple of kinks before uploading
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] The Lostprophet:
Just in time for me to download at the weekend and play with.

Well done sparky was wondering what alliance would do with 4.3 :)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] haybill:
Yes--I am also lurking, waiting for a chance to jump back on the Alliance train--although, to be truthful, DN3 v.3.1.1 from the E-Team has proved a worthy alternative. Once Alliance is uploaded I can flash and compare.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
Heh, I just realised. If sparky gets the next version up for download soon enough - Alliance will be breaking new territory! It's never been known for being the first to a particular build ... but as far as I can see there is only one other rom out there on MK9 - SupremeBean. Not counting the releases that are simply vanilla.

Go Sparky!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Moe5508:
Where is it?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
I'm not sure how many drivers you have tried to make it work but here's a link to a small package. Download and install the drivers and your Note II should connect no problem.

I've tried this on both Windows 7 & 8 and worked on both.

(Also make sure that you have installed Odin. You won't need immediately but it too installs a few drivers for Sammy phones to enable smooth connection to the PC).

Let me know how you get along.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
thanks Rickav bro....I will try it after work....

Edit: i uninstall my old samsung usb driver and install new one with file version 1.5.9.0 and it works.my phone is rooted now.nxt step is TWRP recovery.can i have a link of it?cant wait to flash my phone...i love alliance rom...thanks again guys.

Root problem

Hello,

i have installed the rom but after install and reboot, i have no root.

Is the rom pre rooted? Can anybody help me?

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
yup, it's pre-rooted. Try flashing again, if that doesn't work search xda for latest supersu zip and flash

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
I have flashed my phone with this rom.its very nice and a lots of new features...the only problem is thers no wifi..were can i get the mj5 bootloader?...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Here is a link to the MJ5 Bootloader.

Remember that you have to flash it through Odin in order for the bootloader to install properly.

For detailed instructions:

- Long-hold power button, then select reboot into "Download" mode.

- Turn to your PC.

- Run Odin.

- Connect your phone to PC via USB cable.

- Odin should notify you when your phone has been "added".

- Select "BL" button (centre of screen, first option under Files [Download]), then browse to where you've saved the MJ5 bootloader (need to have extracted from zip file download beforehand). Select the MJ5 bootloader.

- Ensure checkbox next to BL is ticked. Then hit Start.

- Once successfully completed, phone should reboot by itself. Disconnect phone only after reboot is completed.

- Now you're *permanently* on the MJ5 bootloader, there is no need to flash/install it again and your Wi-Fi will also resume normal operation.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
thanks again Rickav bro...glad your here...;)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
What can I say... Hard to stay from the Alliance, isn't it...

I'm on a different 4.3 rom currently. In the middle of the sorting out my homescreen pack, backing up apps, data etc. (Widget positions & sizes and the likes).

My plan is, once I have completed satisfying my "OCD", I'll give the latest Alliance rom a shot again & see how it goes.

(The advantage of being on a different 4.3 rom is that I know what can go wrong, so to speak, thus I now know how to fix some basic problems here and there. Of course, with Alliance, I suspect problems will be minimal.)
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steff195:
[MENTION=5285281]batlyn[/MENTION]: You don't have to flash the new MJ5 bootloader, you'll have Knox trigger if you do. And you cannot go back if wanted. You should flash the wi-fi patch via Odin instead. Here! That would be enough to have working wi-fi on 4.3.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] batlyn:
thanks for all your help guys...my phone is ok now.i used the bootloader from the link given by Rickav bro and the 2 patches from drketan.,i flashed the 3 files via odin..and it works...my wifi is ok now.im an alliance rom fanatic since the time of s2.,.also big thanks to sparky and goldie.,.nice rom...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] steff195:
I'm glad you worked it out, but now if you check the download mode screen more likely you have the new bootloader info and the Knox flag triggered to 1. So that means no warranty. But if you don't care about it, that's ok. :D
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mms1406:
Thanks. I have tried it but it doens´t help. No root.

I am coming from Phoenix Rom. There i have root, but i can´t activate it with the alliance rom :(
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
That's weird mate, i've not come across anyone else with this problem on v5....how are you installing?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Guys, v5.1 is ready to go, but there is an slight issue with some apps not getting true root access...it's only effecting a very small number of apps - for me it's es file explorer and restart sysui. It's not just my rom that's effected but other MK9 roms i've tried have the same issue...

So, I'm happy to post the link but bear in mind these issues are there - incidentally, for me the problem gets fixed by rebooting after install, but not for others.

The new sys ui mods do not rely as much on restarting ui, but for the ones that do you'll need to hot boot to kick them in....

What do you all think? release or not?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Rickav:
Just had a few questions:

- Could you clarify if a hot boot or reboot after Alliance rom installation actually enables root access to all apps (such ES File Explorer or Titanium Backup for that matter)?

- Not so important question: Have you tried other MK4 roms, by any chance? Is there any noticeable performance difference between those & the MK9 versions?

- Since it is a 4.3 rom, I assume it can run on Devil2 kernel? (I know, I know, that as a developer of this rom, you are strictly on stock kernel but I was just wondering if this was a possibility as long I took responsibility for anything that went wrong afterwards).

- How? I mean how that heck do you even integrate all of your li'l signature mods into this Rom without the user facing all the hassle of Xposed Installer Modules and the likes? Damn you, and your innovations... (Please ignore this one and carry on as usual).

- You're pretty awesome. Continue being awesome.

As far as the release goes, you may as well do it. Without user input, you can't polish off every corner of this Rom to perfection. Whether it still be in a rough state or not, a warning in the OP should suffice to makes flashers aware of bugs that may exist.

That's all of my rant over...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Hey Rickav,

there are currently 4 of us using the firmware, so far a reboot after install only works for me to restore root to the effected apps, but it does work every time I flash...

I tried a couple of mk4 roms back when it first came out, to me mk9 seems more stable, nippier, smoother and wifi is much more stable, I've yet to have one of those damn unstable wifi alerts!

Devil kernel does/will work, i use it for adb access now as adbd insecure app is too much hard work to get going. Some users have reported reboots/crashing and black screen whilst using it though.

mate, tbh, nearly all the mods come from Goldie, the man is a genius :D I generally port/adapt to fit n2 and now n3...that's not always as simple as it sounds, but really Goldie is the man to thank :)

Goldie is awesome...I'm learning to be :D :D

I really appreciate your input...i agree that a warning in op is all that's needed, but I felt I needed to be open about this annoying issue.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Weetbix:
I'm trying an mk9 rom and I have yet to have any random reboots like I received on mk4. The only root related problem I've received so far is installing Viper4Android (the sound mod). A simple reboot fixed that also.

I'd vote for posting it still calling it a beta so people can't complain if they don't read before flashing.

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] sparx:
Go back one page and check Steff195's post, he explains it and gives links...but, i believe if you don't flash bootloader it's possible to go back to 4.1.2

i encounter some problem on alliance ctrl..toggle bg,some lockscreen,dropdown panel bg were not working even i restart system ui or hotboot or normal restart..it dint take effect.do i need to reflash again or should i change kernel?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Woschdi:
What you mean is the MK4 (or newer) bootloader. MJ5 has the knox flag thats right but doesn`t count. It will ramain at 0x0 (think it is not activated)

If you flash MK4 bootloader or newer, you will get flag 0x1 (knox is activated now)

I had the MJ5 bootloader on my phone and could use both 4.3 and 4.1.2 without any issues.

I had a display issue and resetted all and flashed original 4.1.2 (sammobile) - all stock samsung, no kox. They repaired my phone for free within warranty; so I am pretty sure MJ5 bootloader does not effect knox and warranty.

Foolishly I got my phone back with German 4.3 (MK9) with activated bootloader :p
