are you having sucess deleting system apps and not installing themselves on a reboot? Also, if successful, which way are you doing it, titanium backup or adb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
I just delete them with Root Explorer. Root/System/App is the folder I go to. But I suggest adding .old to the end of files first (not delete them) and reboot, just in case deleting them causes problems and you need them restored.

Sent from my Galaxy Note II (SCH-I605)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigmike35:
After you added the .old to the files, did they stay that way after a reboot? I tried uninstalling apps through titanium backup, they show they uninstalled, but upon reboot all apps reappear like normal.

also, how did you make betterbatterystats clear, you pull the apk and made it transparent?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
Personally i would go back to the older build. I got better battery with it and Xposed is now in beta stage for 4.4 so we can have mods:D

I am lost. Odin back to stock. Latest CWM wipe data, cache and dalvik all 3 times each. Flash rom (cm, pa or slim) then flash 4.4 apps and same response of no data, no phone number, meid, imei listed, all unknown.

What am I missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
I hope yo made a EFS backup because it sounds like you lost your partition that holds that info.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoop:
I did not make an EFS backup. Flashing beans tw rom everything works fine?? I don't know anything about EFS does that only affect the aosp roms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
It shouldn't then. Have you tried to flash slimbeans 4.4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoop:
tried it and pa all with the same resulsts :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
Well this is very strange...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoop:
Any other ideas? Can I back up EFS on beans then restore it on kitkat to get data back? I feel like it is something I am doing or something that I already did to my phone because I seem to be the only idiot with this problem:cyclops:

BTW You have been really helpful, thank you:angel:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dakoop:
that looks a little over my head, I guess I will stay away from 4.4 for a bit :(

Update: Everything running smooth so far. Looks like BLE is enabled already.

Make sure you are on the latest version of cwm. I had to use one someone posted to download. I read the cwm app doesn't install the latest version. I think it is 4.03 but I'm just guessing.

---------- Post added at 03:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

It is 6.043
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
Latest CWM Version in 6.0.4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbrickg:
Installing now....

An observation for those who haven't tried ART yet: the part of the boot process where "Android is upgrading" is *much* slower using ART; but just the first time you boot after flashing a new ROM.

And, I'm guessing that what it's doing is rebuilding the "dalvik" cache, which, with ART (still guessing) should probably be renamed the "ART cache"?

Once ART is enabled and the cache is rebuilt my Quadrand Standard score went from a best-ever of around 6200 to over 7300. And apps in general seem much snappier.

... and the new install is done. Looks good!

Thanks much, sbrissen
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
Keep me updated on the battery life and such of the new install :D

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] gabe565:
Does anybody know if different mDNIe modes are just not supported in the CM kernel anymore? I know they removed the settings menu in 4.3, but I was still able to modify "/sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/mode" to still change the display mode. Eventually it was only working on custom kernels. Since there aren't any custom kernels being built for 4.4 yet, it just doesn't work at all...

I really love the ROM and it has been my daily driver for a few weeks now, but the screen with the "Dynamic" mDNIe mode just looks terrible and over-saturated...

Thank you thank you! Android is my drug of choice and you are my favorite dealer. lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] metaphysicalgx2:
Does this build have the customizable lock screen spots like the PA ROM has or is that just a general Kit Kat feature that I didn't notice when I was on the first cm11 build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbobo1:
Plasma has a 4.4 kernel out, look at the posts from a couple days ago :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] U01637:
I loved this til I realized I didn't have a cell network connection...wifi was fine but no cell connection at all...any one else having this issue? I dropped back down to 10.2 for the time being but after about a half hour i was already hooked on that buttery smoothness! ART was pretty awesome btw didn't have a single issue in that regard
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DX.Deception:
Did you flash with CWM 6.0.4.3

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] m.ocean:
Yes. RTFM friend:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] U01637:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RokuP:
Yes. Flashing with TWRP borks your cell and/or mobile data connection for some reason. Well known issue. TWRP 2.6.3.1 seems to fix it but has yet to be released for our device.

Is anyone else getting weird distortion when you lock or unlock your phone while music is playing? It sounds like a sample gets locked in place for a second while the song keeps playing. Quite trippy the first time you hear it! :silly:

Keep getting Google apps force closing on the new 11/26 build. Clean install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NeoandGeo:
Bugs for 11/23 build:

Volume is still really low on the headphones

Can't see virtual mouse on PhonemyPC app

Dull red light is always on above the G in Samsung, proximity sensor?

Phone will not enter deep sleep due to AndroidOS keep awake.

Screen tearing is still evident albeit it is much improved from the initial 2 builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Everything listed above is not present when using newest plasma kernel. You can bump up volumes using stweaks. Phone deep sleeps like a champ. No screen tearing. The dull proximity light has been an issue for some but not me on any build. Don't know about the PC app it may not even be updated for KitKat yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrissen:
The 11/26 fixes the light sensor/ dull light problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] NeoandGeo:
Thanks, I will give that kernel a try and see if it improves at least the volume and battery drain. I can live with the dull red light as it looks cool in a pitch black room. Reminds me of the good old OG Droid days. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sonofevil77:
+1. On the 11-26 build with plasma my battery is lasting like it used to. I'm having a proximity sensor issue though. Screen stays black in a phone call and turns on when the call disconnects but I think it may be my hardware.

Is anybody aware of an APN Manager or editor that works with 4.4? This rom does bring up all of my ATT APN's but Spotify won't work at all if there's any connections involving a wap.cingular available, regardless if it's selected or not.

Good news is that the Prox sensor is working much better with the 11/26 update! Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Guys please don't report issues when using a kernel other then the official cm kernel. Those don't belong here. I don't have a red light on with the included kernel. This builds battery is excellent using art so far. Fantastic build. This one has me really excited about kit Kat again
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mising:
I only get it with Google Play Music so far, Pandora does not seem to be affected.

I have not yet tried any other musics apps besides those two.

Gravity

I have thoroughly tested the 11-26 build since release using both stock and plasma both are rock solid and have great battery life. I am using ART, Titanium Backup. Every app I throw at this thing just works. All sensors are turning off and on when they should as far as I can tell. Bluetooth and GPS are flawless. Those who have been holding out to try Kitkat now is the time to make the jump!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikespe:
I'm currently running Beans 22 which is Touchwiz...I was wondering what S Pen functionality is lost using a pure Android rom like this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mising:
I just came from Beans 22 also, and everything I have tried with the S-pen seems to work, although I am not a heavy stylus user.

The only thing I really miss from TW is Multi Window, and Bluetooth Low Energy doesn't sync with my Fitbit yet. Aside from those very minor issues, this is golden so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikespe:
Thanks for the quick info...I use multi window periodically...I will say I am VERY happy with Beans 22 & can wait for him to develop a 4.3 or even a 4.4 (I don't think he'll do a 4.4 until the official release for VZN?) rom. However I really like the Air Command features from 4.3...I wish I could at least get that installed on 22.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
Chances are you aren't running ART with Xposed installed. It automatically switches you to Dalvik Runtime when you install it, hence why the boot up time is sped up. No really, look in the developers options.

As far as I know, ART isn't yet compatible with Xposed.

Sent from my Galaxy Note II (SCH-I605)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Nope no ART with Xposed which is fine by me. I personally didn't notice a speed difference when I was using ART pre-Xposed install.

Try this: play the music from your phones speaker first and then plug in your AUX cable. That's what I have to do. And if you ever do a voice to text and voice search that pauses the music u will have to redo it

Clean install of the latest, confirming the bluetooth volume bug still present, with volume turned to lowest setting it's still loud. Tested with youtube and pandora.

Screen rotation seems to stick once in a while when the screen turns off while in landscape.

Setup wizard does not download settings or apps automatically when you first boot the ROM after a clean install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
My bluetooth works great. Just tried calling, YouTube and Pandora all work great including low and loud volumes. Did you try another bluetooth device to see if it's just your device that doesn't care for KitKat bars?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
I will assume that's why you have an issue. Aren't we supposed to be formatted fat32 for all aosp Roms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WisdomWolf:
No, but it's possible that ExFAT support hasn't made it into CM11 this early, I suppose. I know it works flawlessly with CM 10.2 though. I just wanted to confirm that every one else with ExFAT cards was having the same issue, because if the aren't then it's something on my end that I need to figure out.

I installed this last night and a few times the phone locks up, and everything is a dark red.. You can navigate still but hard to see and things like the vid player is frozen. I was trying to watch a vid through the dock on my TV but my tuner doesn't see the signal.

I think my note 2 is completely useless. I flashed this rom with the latest cwm 6.0.4.3 touch and mobile data is broke. Nandroid back to stock tw 4.1.2 and mobile data was still broke. So I used odin to restore back to stock no root no unlock bootloader and data works. I then reroot with casual. Made a backup and flashed the latest cm10.2. Mobile data works. Then formatted system, factory data reset, wiped cache, and dev cache, then flashed this latest rom and to my surprise data broke. I don't understand. I did format the tombstone and firmware.

bigbiff found the reason why we're losing the radio. Running "restorecon -R /system" will restore the radio within 30 seconds, without a reboot. You'll need to mount /system as rw first though.

To make it easier, I made a flashable ZIP. It will try to run restorecon in recovery (this part seems to only work in CWM), and it will also copy "fixradio" to /system/bin. If the radio still doesn't work after flashing, boot up, start Terminal and type "su" press enter, then type "fixradio" and press enter. Within 30 seconds your radio should be back.

Fixes clean installs and nandroids on both TWRP and CWM.

Tested on the L900, but should work for all Note2 variants.
