Philz will restore all your old twrp backups. I have used it on many occasions to do just that. When I got my note 2 I only used twrp but once aosp 4.4 and tw 4.3 came out there were all kinds of issues with twrp. So I started using cwmr but if I wanted to restore any of my older backups I had to flash back to twrp and restore. I got tired of going back and forth all the time. So I moved to philz which will install/backup/restore aosp 4.4 and tw 4.3 and it will restore twrp so it was a win win win choice.

Now a few people have claimed to have minor issues with philz installing some roms but I have never had any issues every.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] moose1313:
You are correct
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MidwestDrummer:
I haven't had any issues with text messages myself. Just the fact that DU doesn't know it's connected to Sprint, and my apps aren't able to function because of that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] fireR6:
Okay so i installed TWRP and GOO Manager. When i reboot into recovery it boots into CWM not TWRP. Am I doing something wrong. Also GOO Manager stops responding and shuts down.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Go in to TWRP Manager - Advanced - Install Recovery to flash twrp

Any way to enable navbar on this ROM? I tried looking thru settings but no luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
Add this line to build.prop -- qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

And you could use xposed framework. GravityboxKK

Thanks everyone for the help. I was able to get TWRP installed and my phone restored. I'll be back soon to flash this ROM again, love it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] moose1313:
My not receiving /delayed messages was not due to this rom. Just thought this may help a couple others but it was due to google voice. The app is storing the messages and not forwarding them to hangouts or the messaging app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Glad you got that figured out. I was wondering how that could happen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattinky11:
Had anyone else experienced issues with gps? Maps is constantly waiting on location. Flashed back to tw and got a lock and then restored but still no dice. Love the rom, very clean, nice work. Thanks to the dev.

Also, I've searched a little last night but couldn't find anything about a dark version of hangouts. Anyone have any info about that? Can the hangouts apk be themed to be dark instead of so bright? Just wondering. Thanks in advance.

I have a blacked out hangouts. In play store, search "blackout updater", there's a free & a donate (which I bought) version. It does have a few issues right now, when it first came out it was flawless, every time, but I think since kk, they've had some issues.

Thanks devs for all your work on this great rom. I feel like I have a new phone!

Question - when I'm in a phone call, the screen turns off. Before I flashed DU, I could just move the phone from my ear, and the screen would turn on, allowing me to use the dialpad or hang up. Now I have a hard time getting the screen to turn on or stay on when in a call (I press power or home - the lockscreen comes up, then quickly turns off).

Is there a setting I can change, or am I doing something wrong?

I saw the earlier thread about installing an exposed module to keep the screen on, but I'd rather keep the screen off during calls, and have it behave properly.

Thanks!

Mike

I just noticed that the 'mute' function (during a call) is not working for me. Anyone else? Is there a fix?

I'm on stock kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jasonf925:
I just tried. noticed the same. Looks like the mute button turns on, but it doesn't actually mute.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DatBoiJeremy:
Think I'ma stay on the 3.8 build till this gets fixed. Looks great from when I tried it out but the camera and other bugs got to me. When this is fixed and running smoothly, I will definitely be using this. Devs did an excellent job with it just to have those minor bugs in it. I've tried out several others and....HOLY HELL. Too many problems to list. They have all the features I want with KK. Keep it up guys.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cavey8500:
You got it. That fixed it. Running great now. Thanks a ton man!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
I flashed Paranoid Android. The mute function works on that rom, but I flashed back to DU because it is awesomer.

But I still have the issue where the screen blanks out during a call, and I can't get it to come back on. Is nobody else having that issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] moose1313:
Are you using the older plasma? Use stock kernel or newest plasma made for omni rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattinky11:
The new plasma for omni rom have me the black screen before and during a call. Back to stock kernel and everything is fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
I just wiped cache/dalvic and flashed plasmakernel_v2-05b0_l900_kk.zip.

I still get the black screen. Could it be some setting somewhere?

Is there a way to flash to stock kernel, without re-installing the rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] aheeejd:
Just don't wipe anything & flash rom again, it'll be just as fast as if you had the stock kernel

Hmm I haven't had the black screen during call since flashing the new plasma. Proximity sensors also working fine

is there a specific process if upgrading from 4.2? I've been reading horror stories about knox and the MC4 build... just curious. trying to do more homework before deciding to jump up to any kit kat rom

Why does gmail always say sending on this rom?? it never completes the send
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
That only pertains to the touch wiz updates. And its the mk4 build. There is no mc4 but the one before mk4 was mc2. Hope thats clear.

You can just flash this ROM with philz recovery and you'll be fine. Make a backup first.

You can Wipe the data for gmail in application settings and itll send. I have to do this usually after flashing new ROMs. Is an issue with data sync and gmail. Not any fault of any Roms specifically. Just fyi

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wascapsfan:
Thanks so much. Worked perfectly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] resarfekim:
I flashed back to factory stock, and the screen-off-during-call problem persisted. Brought it to Sprint; the tech opened it and blue the dust off of the proximity sensor. All fixed! :cool:

Tomorrow I'll re-root and re-dirty. Thanks all for the help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honeyhell:
I flashed this ROM, I love it!!! but the only concern i am having is its draining the battery big time!!! can someone help with that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rchampagne:
Yes, Sorry, the MC4 was a typo for MK4. SO the Knox issues only pertain to the Samsung TouchWiz OTA ROMS (rooted and stock)? So if i understand if the ROM doesn't have Knox, we're good to go? Just making sure i understand.

Another Question. I'm running the Whompasaurus ROM v. 4.2, and was forced to add drive encryption due to exchange policies. As I understand. The only way to install a new ROM on my phone is to do a full format of data and start fresh, correct?

Never dealt with encryption on my phone and custom ROMs so I don't wanna jump the gun.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rchampagne:
look to make sure all the standard battery draining things are disabled. things like auto sync, GPS, bluetooth etc. if you've loaded a bunch of apps, also check inside those apps to make sure they aren't constantly trying to phone home for internal updates ,etc.

you also may want to reset your battery statistics from recovery. If you dont know how to do that, search the forum. there are many posts on that topic.

Hope it helps!

-Champ
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
Yes that first statement is correct. And none of our custom ROMs have Knox except the actual 4.3 from sprint. Its been removed from the custom ROMs found here.

I'm not sure about that encryption and whomps, but I had to backup and format my internal just to squash the bug from coming from 4.1 to 4.3. Its suggested. Use philz recovery too. It just works. Make a nan droid and flash this ROM after a full wipe and see how it runs.. If you go to a custom 4.3 tw ROM, be sure to read the directions and flash the WiFi fix in Odin on a PC. Not necessarily needed for this ROM or any of the aosp 4.4 ROM. Hope that's clear

Running DU with the latest Plasma kernel. Fantastic performance and amazing battery life!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rallaster:
When I go into settings, and click on the "Device Specific" under the "Device" section, settings FCs, and it FCs every time without fail. Is this an issue with the Kernel or ROM? That's really the only issue I've found since flashing it 4 days ago.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honeyhell:
I have only have GAPPS on the phone also the BT and GPS are disabled, I havent tried the battery stat reset which i will do now.. but it should not drain the batter this much, its drains a fully charged battery in 35 mins. I moved to a different ROM the battery lasted in for almost 2 days.

com.android.phone has stopped

I'm getting an "unfortunately com.android.phone has stopped" error after i reboot my phone, and occasionally when I'm just poking around.

I tried a full wipe (caches, system, data, internal, etc) and installed DU, and it still does the error.

This may be related to a few days ago, I reverted back to MC2 stock (billard412's method) to bring my phone in for service. The tech installed the MK4 update (thanks,ass), so I followed Lorjay's procedure to remove Knox, then I restored my DU nandroid.

Before I installed stock MC2, I was messing with my build.prop and Xposed framework, trying to disable the proximity sensor. I'm wondering if there could be leftover effects of that which survive the wipe?

Any suggestions please? Is there a way to fully wipe clean the internal storage (or is that a bad idea)?

-update- I wiped all again and installed SlimKat rom. That cleared the issue.

Whether I used Handscent (which I use now on 4.1.2) or just the stock sms, it kept telling me that there was a server issue (a white pop up kept popping up).

I waited a few hours and it did the same thing so I just rebooted into recovery and went back to old faithful and sms worked fine and texts immediately were popping up).

I found nothing wrong with 4.1.2 DU, but I just LOVE your work so I wanted to see what 5.0 had to offer. LOVED IT ALSO.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
This will sound rude but asking for help about flashing a note 2 ROM on an s2 is just wrong. Oh and when you brick your device I bet you will want help fixing it to.

Just be smart and flash s2 roms before you really jack things up.

If you check back a couple of posts you'll c that I did have it working just flashed away because the color invertion took place on movies and videos and I didn't quite like that

Having an issue with my notification bar, it keeps disappearing at random times. Seems like the only way to bring it back is to hold the power button, so the power options show up and this will cause the notification bar to show up as well. Did I mess with a setting somewhere that is hiding it at random?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
In sorry this build is only for t0ltespr not t03g. The status 7 is because your phone is not t0ltespr. Apologies.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rivethead23:
I am getting tired of the hamfisted bloated experience that the Samsung stock and derivatives are. Tried CM11, CM 10, Avatar and now this. While this seems stable and very fast, unfortunately it seems to suffer from the same issue all Roms other than stock based ones have - 4g lte doesn't work. If Sprints 3g was even decent I might give it a pass. For some v reason where I work I have almost no 3g at all but oddly if I turn on LTE my connections are great. Anyone have any solution to this. Seems to be a common problem with CM and aokp Roms but none of the suggestions I have found work... Airplane on then off, update Prl , switch to 3g then back to 4g . nothing seems to make the LTE work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] VECTUS:
As moderator here at XDA I would be remiss if I did not point out that it is bad manners to come into someones development thread and then not only intimate that their rom doesn't work correctly but then proceed to intimate all the others don't work either... I can understand your fustration with YOUR situation but I would like to point out you are in the minority. All aosp roms I have been on with the Sprint Note 2 do indeed work on 4G/LTE (or sprints equivelant), 3g etc etc. As a matter of fact most users here don't have issues with 4G/LTE or 3G. You even point out Samsung and Sprint as the probable culprits in this terrible situation with AOSP (which means you should complain to THEM not XDA). Maybe I misread your post and don't really understand but either way please use good judgement when posting in a DEVELOPMENT thread. I would also like to point out that if you complain but don't have an answer then really whats the point of complaining at all? (my point being that either take up development and learn how to fix your issues or provide logcats of the occurrences so they can be fixed. This stuff is all free my friend and developers don't owe you anything.)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Hit me up on hangouts. mazwoz@gmail.com
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Can you provide a logcat to show where the issue is? LTE has been working fine for me. I have even transitioned from LTE to 3G to 1x as well as WiFi on and off. Not sure where your issue is, maybe try changing APNs.

Install a TW ROM, get a good GPS lock and then immediately flash DU while you still have a GPS lock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rallaster:
As far as I'm aware, there aren't any TW 4.4 ROMs. What's the best way to go back to TW from AOSP, and when flashing back reboot into recovery while GPS locked with full wipe or use ROM Mgr?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rivethead23:
Please do not misinterpret what I said as a commentary on this ROM or any other. My comment about hamfisted was directed at the amount of bloat Samsung includes in their stock ROM and not the quality of the ROMS put out by the community. I am fully aware of the time and effort put forth by the devs to improve the experience of these devices. And I appreciate tremendously the work they do.

I am in no way trying to start problems in this thread. I was looking for an answer for a problem that I have been seeing. I am not in any way frustrated or upset regarding this issue. I was just trying to find out if this is a problem others are experiencing. Perhaps this thread was not the right place to ask but since I have been running this ROM I thought it might be the place to ask. It sounds like the answer is 4g LTE does work on non-stock ROMS. I did nor find an answer in my searching so I thought I would ask. I could find numerous mentions in the past about Aosp Roms and LTE issues on other devices and some people saying it v doesn't work on this device long ago but was trying to gauge if this was an ongoing problem or b just particular to me.

My apologies if the wording of my previous post lead adobe to believe I was upset or unhappy in any way
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] VECTUS:
Actually I am glad you replied and cleared that (sorry OP for going off topic) up. Yes 4G works fine on our AOSP roms here on the Sprint Note 2. This is a great rom and I've used it personally. So don'te be afriad to flash it or any AOSP now... 4.4.2 is great!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rivethead23:
Thanks for the pointers... Got it fixed it looks like it was a bad APN found an "optimized" APN file and it worked fine. I suppose I should have mentioned I am on Ting. While it runs over sprint apparently any ROM other than ones based on stock won't run LTE right without a modified file. Thanks for the confirmation that it works told me I needed to keep digging instead of giving up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mazwoz:
Glad to hear you got it running properly. Never give up, if people gave up when they hit obstacles there would be no Android. :)
