If that doesn't work try flashing the R8 build then flash r9z of top of it. We're working on rebuilding the entire R9X base now so maybe we will fix some of these bugs.

Hey guys. Anyone having issues with group message? It fails to send and when I get a group mms I can only reply to the sender.

Is the loss of double finger pull down only on the master of toggles?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JeramyEggs:
It works on a fresh install with the wifi fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingamra:
Thank you for the ROM!

Quick question... I fired up Puffin browser and errored then closed.

Puffin does not work well with GPU rendering currently. Please disable For GPU rendering option on your device first (Settings>Developer options>force GPU rendering).

for the life of me I cannot find the "developer options" in the settings menu. ideas?

speaking of settings... I flashed the air command.zip and my settings went from a JB style to the 4.3 style...?? Still FC on "About Phone"

Another thing I noticed, with the Master of All Toggles flash - when I go to edit the order, I get a FC. anyone else?

thanks again for the rom!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaeTazzCee:
Thanks. I've backed up a few times with TWRP, was just good to see them all. Will be backing up later on today, just in case of any issues. Thanks for all the help!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrownla:
Tap on "build number" a bunch of times in settings->about device and it will start a countdown ... It's kind of fun.

That was added back in ... 4.2 was it? Very sneaky.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbroot83:
So is there a work around for getting into about phone? I keep getting an fc, so there is no way I'll be able to get my dev options....

My battery life is crazy so far. I have 3 hours screen time and lost 15% of my battery. I do have a zero lemon 9300 mah battery on it, but I've never had battery life this great. I've had a constant upload to Dropbox saving my skynote files as well. This is insane

One issue I have is an empty signal bar. Anyone else have this problem or know of a fix? Calls work, just got off the phone, but signal bar shows no signal all morning, both at home and now at work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Yes signal bars not working is a known issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dtroup64:
Hey there,

If you have no signal bars, then you haven't read the thread. Your phone senses that you neither read the posts before yours, nor searched this thread for "no signal bars" and removes your signal bars as a penalty.

Hope this helps! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vancampff:
Guilty....skimmed it but.... well.... I will shut up now:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lilpeezy23:
Download an app called developer options from the play store. It's basically just a shortcut to the settings that bypasses the FC

Skynote 4.3 Rom'd Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
I installed the supersu zip, but when I go in the app it still says no SU binary installed , what do I need to do ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Will the supersu app let you update the su binary ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
I have found the best was for me to update the binary is install the SU1.75 update then go to the play store and update SU 1.80 click open and update binary using the normal button. This has worked for me 99% of the time. I also did it over wifi not sure if that has anything to do with it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
no that popup comes and then when I click ok, it closes and I cannot do anything in the app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbroot83:
Are the apks already frozen or removed that ask is to upgrade our os? I don't need mine trying to update on me...

Skynote 4.3 Rom'd Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] brandon2x:
So is the wifi issue random or are most people still having it? I saw that a couple people said it worked instantly just fine. I only ask because I'm having computer problems at home and wouldn't be able to do the odin flash too easily or fast...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shellie03:
Wifi worked off the bat for me on 9x and 9z.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] brandon2x:
Awesome. I'm getting ready to flash. Have been gone from this site for a while jumping back and forth from phones. Finally got hooked on the note 2, but been getting REALLY annoyed waiting on the update. Tried the AOSP roms but I personally like Touchwiz and the s pen features. This looks like it'll be my daily driver if all goes well!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
What recovery are you using?

For some reason TWRP is causing some issues for people that others using Devil / CWM recovery never have. Also after flashing supersu if the recovery asks if you want to fix root click NO, and if it asks if you want to disable recovery flash click yes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
I am using CWM , it flashes fine, and I click yes on the disable recovery flash and click no on fix root...but it still wont let me update the supersu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Try dirty flashing the rom and see if it will restore root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingamra:
Ty for dev options link
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] brandon2x:
Well wifi didn't work off the bat for me unfortunately. Are there any options to try to get it working without the Odin use? Like I said, computer issues currently... Rom looks amazing for the 5 mins I had it up!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
IT worked, was hoping dirty flashing would have gotten me wifi , but still a no go ..hate dealing with odin ,so I guess I will try and flash devil kernel
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] koreankabachy:
Flashed your rom and had no signal bars which I knew might be in issue but the killer for me was a lost bluetooth tethering ability. I currently use this for my galaxy gear. Any chance on getting this back in the future?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Syns:
Hey guys. Hate to ask again but Anyone having issues with group message? It fails to send and when I get a group mms I can only reply to the sender not the group. Has no option to reply to group.

Please advise.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vancampff:
Read the op again..... carefully:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] brandon2x:
I've read the OP numerous times. I've also ready EVERY page in this forum and have seen numerous people saying their wifi worked without doing the odin fix. That's why I replied to the person who said "Mine worked off the bat". Not specifically to the thread. I thought, just maybe, someone would have had some extra insight... Guess not...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
There is a link directly under the R9Z link that says , if you still don't have wifi use the devil2 kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
I'll have to look into this for you :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vancampff:
And that's in the op
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
It was reported that galaxy gear worked correctly on one of the R8 builds, so I wasn't aware that it was no longer working. I'll see if I can figure out what the problem is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] brandon2x:
Thank you sir... I did see that too but reading through other posts thought that the Devil Kernel was causing other issues... I'll try that later tonight. Thanks again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] koreankabachy:
Did not try pairing the watch, went straight to checking for bluetooth tethering. The gear may work with R8 or even current Rom but I was specifically looking for the tethering which allows me to get Internet on the galaxy gear. Sorry for the confusion. Please let me know if I am incorrect about bluetooth tethering... Don't even see it as an option under the "tethering" setting.

Not sure AT&T allows bluetooth tethering... Since this is based off their rom, it may be the reason I don't see the option.

Ps. Your rom looked great... Nice job. If you do get bluetooth tethering, I'm all over this rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Okay I see what your saying, I'll see if that was a carrier blocked function in the att release.. Maybe it's a simple fix. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ems3:
to the person with the group messaging issue have you checked the messaging settings and then sms/mms then you should be where my screen shot is. Maybe this helps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
Are you using gear manger 1.5? I have not tested it on R9z but when it installs make sure all 20 packages get installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deckoz2302:
The gear works perfectly fine for a stock build - except forwarding the sql database from touchwiz weather widget.

If your talking about a custom rom on the gear and trying to utilize bluetooth tethering on the phone. Settings.apk and services.jar(on the phone) is stock and has not been modified to include bluetooth tethering option in Settings menu....so this is not an issue of the rom, more so that the code has not been edited from stock. If you want this option you can do one of two things, wait for it to be added, or follow a guide on how to modify the files.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
Have you installed Null rom on your gear? That rom allows Bluetooth tethering
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JetBlue:
Just flashed the ROM and System UI and Settings are crashing non-stop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
We are working hard on a fix for settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JetBlue:
Is there a fix or something for System UI since I couldn't do anything since it'd constantly crash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
I'm waiting to hear back from stvn1337 settings has been a work in progress.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
Someone please help!!! I don't know what happened but all was well, then all of a sudden the no sim message comes up and now I can't send any message or make any calls or do anything ......i need help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Try taking your sim out and then putting it back in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
Tried that several times, also tried reflashing rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Looks like we will be one step further tonight, I'm going to send send scoobysnack this final R9Z-2 Base build for one last pretest before we post it:) Link is uploading now.

Bugs we hope are completely fixed:

MasterTogglesMod - I wrote an app that will take all the work out of the mod, you open the app and it does the rest. and in testing it seems to not break the toggle edit screen as well

About device fc bug - (but not status yet)

MMS loss

SMS loss

If you thank me on this post make sure to thank scoobysnack as well, he actually put together the base for this last build and fixed the about device settings FC bug.

Stay tuned , I'll be posting a link as soon as this last test is finished. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wurgy:
Thanks scoobysnack! Hopped back onto Jedi when it would boatload on rebiots and was gonna wait for the next build. Gotta say having withdrawals after only 2 days.

If only that kid would come out I could mess around more but need a for sure working phone until he decides to say hi, Hate to miss a call or text from the wife. I'd be dead. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Okay that leaves a few things it could be, A bad sim ( a notorious problem ) is a possible culprit, or you may need to odin back to stock and reroot , but I would wait and clean flash the R9Z-2 were posting tonight and see if that fixes the no sim problem before resorting to an odin to stock fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jthomas1987:
Will be looking forward to the new posting tonight. I had the SMS/MMS drop out problem this afternoon. I could receive, but couldn't transmit at all. Kind of upset my girlfriend, she thought I was ignoring her. :silly:

Not a big deal. Just dropped SlimKat 4.4 on for something different. Very much miss my Sky Note though, it rocks the S-pen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ieisha:
while waiting on a reponse i thought i would just revert back toa backup....did complete wipe and all as instructed, and went to install.....all my zip are saying bad , and i wipe internal , so now i am stuck on boot screen uggggghhhh i hate odin. and its been so long since i had to use it i can remember what to do. i live in the country with no landline, so i have no means of communication right now other than this computer
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
read back a few pages, the odin instructions were posted by deckoz.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] koreankabachy:
Yes I'm using null but Null rom doesn't have bluetooth tethering if your phone doesn't support it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] viper31573:
Fwiw when I got the message about there being no su binary, I flashed the su zip that is in this thread several time and it's been fine. No problems with rom at all

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 PM ----------

I also do click fix root if it asks me to
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Okay , The R9Z-2 Build link is now live in the OP.

As far the testing - it seems their are still some setting force closes that are not completely fixed.. we are going to continue working on it though.

The MasterToggleMod is cooked in and one click does it all (Luckily, it was my first time using the RootTools library in an APK :laugh: )

I believe this build will be far more stable than the previous builds.

Enjoy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Adrioid:
Can we dirty flash on top of the old build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
You should be able to dirty flash without issues. I would suggest to wipe cache and dalvik before flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dvanzutphenkann:
Signal bars fixed in new build ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
No the signal bars still are not fixed. The toggles work and settings kind of works status is still causing FC.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
Ok I finally got settings/status to work. Update no longer works and the toggles are gone. Ill work on it more tomorrow and try to get out all straightened out. We see on the road to a really clean and stable rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbroot83:
So is z-2 a no go or you fixed this in z-2? Btw, this is the most stable rom I've ran on any phone. I really appreciate the work y all have put into this

Skynote 4.3 Rom'd Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jewnersey:
Z2 working great for me. Didn't get Wi-Fi it of the box but everything else is good. Had to flash su 175 after I running the mastertoggles but that's it. Would love to see a fully debloated version or aroma with app options, but this is awesome and has been my daily for weeks.

Still getting fc when trying to add some widgets to alt launchers
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
The setting /about device / status still force closes on R9Z-2. The MasterToggleMod has been redone completely and now when you click the app named MasterToggleMod it applies the toggle mod without borking the edit toggle setting screen.

Glad to hear, we're trying to make the base as stable as possible so I can make it aroma installable and we can quite possibly give you guys another flavor of skynote :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbroot83:
Do yall ever sleep? It seems like yall work constantly on this. And for that I am very grateful. Wish I could do what yall do. I may start trying to learn. I have z-2 downloaded but haven't decided if I'm gonna flash it. Z is so stable for me and the few small issues I don't even notice. Is dirty flashing a no no in your book or is it ok?

Dirty flashing over your old data is fine. Make sure you wipe cache and dalvik prior to flashing though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbroot83:
Thank you so much. Will flash now

Skynote 4.3 Rom'd Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
If you used the R9Z-2 link in the OP you have the update. An MD5 would show the change but our changes are so small most of the time the overall size won't change much.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jdg1:
Ok just wanted to make sure i got the latest. Thanks again for an awesome ROM. Who needs a stinking Verizon update:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jthomas1987:
Would it be possible to get the MD5 of the new build?

The reason I ask is I have downloaded it twice and both times it errors out at the beginning of the install. I have tried both browser (FF and Opera) and DL managers to pull down the ROM. I wipe the relevent partitions, so this makes no sense to me.

I had the previous build install just fine, Wifi worked great, the only problem I had was the MMS/SMS quit working.

This is an awesome ROM and I really want to install it. I miss my S-pen. :rolleyes:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] newbroot83:
I downloaded and installed the new update, but it failed. Downloaded fine and I flashed it. It showed the Samsung logo flashed then went back to recovery. So I repeated. Still failed. I'm not sure what went wrong

Everything install fines phone boots up but whenever I restart the phone it gets stuck on the samsung logo and stays there forever. I have gone through all the posts and no one I think faces such issue. Please help. I am coming from jedi 20 rom and using twrp recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] scoobysnack:
Don't flash R8 just R9 should be good. Also make sure you do a complete wipe. I use TWRP and check all the boxed except the last 2 then do a factory reset...I do that a few times. Then install and you should be good to go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
Try using Philz touch recovery, there's a thread in the Verizon note 2 android development section .

It seems that Philz, Cwm, and devil recovery have better results at flashing this rom. I will put up a MD5 HASH ASAP for the R9Z-2 build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wurgy:
Yeah I get the reboot error as well and was using TWRP. Gonna go with you can't use TWRP. However wifi works out of the box with no changes when using TWRP, I was doing a complete wipe when I tried, had this happen with last two releases.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
An MD5 checksum for R9Z-2 is now in the OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Syns:
Thanks for info. I have them checked and it still fails on sending...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] vancampff:
I downloaded RC9Z with TWRP and running well but if everyone using it is getting stuck on bootloader with Z-2, I guess I won't risk it and just change my recovery. What is getting the best results?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
I use Philz touch. It is CWM with more options, it works very well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mlin:
Ive seen a couple of people mention camera and mms issues. Are these known bugs not listed in the OP or do the camera and MMS work for most?

I'm downloading now but wanted to check before flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bama17:
Converting the launcher apk to a system app in TiBu should allow widgets to be added to other launchers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stvn1337:
To anyone having the flashing problems , or "stuck on samsung screen " problems, check the MD5 and compare it with the one in the OP. I am going to upload this build to some other mirrors also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shellie03:
This is exactly how I flash the rom and I use twrp also and I haven't had any problems. I always have wifi off the bat. The only thing I have to do is fix root but that's easily done with the supersu zip. This rom is so awesome. Thank you everyone involved!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joeriv5692:
Out of curiosity, did you apply the Wi-Fi patch or you just used twrp to get your Wi-Fi working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] sbrownla:
