Awesome! I have been looking forward to this. Any chance you have preliminary bug list or everything is smooth sailing so far? I may have missed it in the OP but is there a bug tracker of some sort
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
The only things I know that do not work as of yet.. Is Direct Pen Input (Writing Buddy), Download Booster(DN3 does not have this working on any builds..) and the Air Gestures( We do NOT have the hardware..)

If anything else please report.. All should be good..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Don't know why my post did not show.. anyway..

I do know of a few things that do not work as of today.. Direct Pen Input (Writing Buddy.. Its broken for them (N7105) I am looking into fixing it though..).. Download Booster(DN3 does not have this working on any versions either..) and Air Gestures( We simply do not have the hardware for these features..)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] joker2428:
I only see a download link for beta 2 in the OP, and when you download it it shows v4 beta 1... is that the right one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Yes sorry I will change the name so no one is confused..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] razortaz18:
Is this ROM international based?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] firewater88:
Flashed this morning. So far seems to be going good. Had one sleep lockup, did battery pull and came back to life. Will see if it happens again. Have had that issue on other 4.4 roms too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnp357:
Dude,

You are confusing the hell out of me. what's the difference between this and your other 4.4.2 projects with your name all over it?

Regards,

Very confused...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
im a little confused too l8. is this the newest dn3 v5 port that was just renamed as v4 beta 2 since you guys used the nd3 base when porting?

i understand that you guys used the old DN3 thread for 4.3 so it doesnt clutter and thus discussion starts at a certain post for dn3 4.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelikesbikes:
So I downloaded once and my checksum was totally different. Using Es File Explorer to calculate. Anyone getting a different value?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Where in the op is the download link.. I go to post 6 and only see the link for add-ons??

Nevermind.. I found it :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Not sure why you guys are confused.. This is Ditto N3 ported on ND3 base.. It has all their features..it's THEIR ROM not mine..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] razortaz18:
Is GPS working for you on this ROM? Our phones seem to be similar when it comes to GPS working or not on certain builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
nvm i got it. thanks =). brain fart. Btw i just got confused because there was a dn3 changelog for v5 on the OP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] firewater88:
Flashed this at work, did step outside and got a fast gps lock. All was good. On way home I had no data. I did install from both Philz latest and latest Twrp (which I usually use) and still no mobile data. Had to restore a N3bula 4.3 backup I had. May try again later.

Just haven't found a good combo where 4.4 works for all features for my phone... I'm not giving up!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] F8LBooya:
Rom looks awesome and thank you for bringing it to us. I also did not have Wifi or Data. The model shows up as the international phone. Did I mess up an option somewhere?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Edit : Used latest PhilZ to flash. Wiped everything clean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
No wifi? Are you sure you flashed MJ9 firmware required for 4.3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] F8LBooya:
Thanks you for the reply. My Baseband shows as MJ9. I flashed it thru Odin a while back.

On the About Device for my phone it showed NT7105 for the model number. I am on your stock debloated right now and everything working solid with correct model number showing.

And again thank you for hard work to bring this to us!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Not sure why that would be happening.. Maybe try another install, wiping internal..or a different recovery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] F8LBooya:
You got it. I will give that a shot later tonight when I hit home. Thanks again. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
wifi works. data didnt but apn was there. Just have to get into apn settings and select it. None was selected by default. After reboot settings dont stick. have to manually go into apn each time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] icedventimocha:
Nice to see you got this booting finally. Nice work as always

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
I wish I could get the GPS to function on this rom, or any other international rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] cyberma007:
I installed the Rom and so far everything works, just had couple of reboots during updates of install of app restore from playstore, does the Radio app work by any chance?

Thanks

---------- Post added at 12:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 AM ----------

GPS works well, make sure you have MJ9 modem firmware installed using windows odin and not mobile odin,also use Philz clockworkmod, and also make sure to wipe all including internal SD before your install
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Had a few reboots after intermittent freezing. .foreclosed applications after updating in Google play. .tried calling ..typed phone number. .hit call (send) and number would just dissappear. .three minutes later it called that person. ..love the look. .Hotspot works. .hit the radio button. I don't have headsets so I couldn't use. I installed the s5 build prop. .not sure if I should of done that. I checked it during aroma install
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
That's weird, it works on mine. And my phone is just like yours, it also hates the international base.

But my GPS is working fine, it got a lock in like 15 seconds. Did you do a full wipe?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Works on mine as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] angasreid:
Hey guys,

After flashing, my N2 has been stuck on the Samsung splash/boot screen with stars glowing etc. How long should I see this animation for after flashing?

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tspnews:
I was using the R3D build from the other thread without issues .... except that the last build doesn't support dock audio. Figured I would give this a try.

No go at all. Wiped and formatted everything under the sun 5 times over. Can't get past the samsung logo. Tried installing the zip with different UI options, not installing some apps, wipe before/after/left/right.

Longest I let it sit at the samsung logo was ~25 mins. And that was because it was dinner time :) .... phone was hot so I am assuming its stuck in a loop of sorts.

Backed out down to Jett Rom to get my dock audio back.

S5 features are nice, hopefully the quirks get ironed out of these 4.4 builds.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
What recovery are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] angasreid:
I'm on Safestrap 3.72
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
Full wipe. Formatted everything. Ran it with 3 different custom installers. Done the gps fix link below.

http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/761247-gps-fix-dummies-guide.html

I had a gps signal for about 15 minutes. After reboot it was like it disappeared. I been custom rom flashing for a while. Im running the vzw rip with full signal. No issues on that rom. I pieced together a S5 setup that works good enough. I always look at the greener side of the water.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
anyone have an issue with data not working?

I have downloaded an apn shortcut app. Went into apn. Found out that none was selected by default. Selected the VZWINTERNET. 4g went on. Rebooted the phone and have to start the whole process over. Anyone know how to make it stick?

It works but its an annoyance to have to do that and i have no clue why.

Please let me know if anyone is able to fix this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSlick:
NO 4G

Great rom.. But when I left the house I notice I had no data also:( . Is there a fix for this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] icedventimocha:
What recovery are you using? I use the latest Philz and have no problems flashing any of their or my builds.

Sent from my Galaxy Note II
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DSlick:
I also used Philz, everything else is fine i just have no data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
i used both an older philz and the newest philz recovery. still doesnt work

Safe Strap

Hey there,

I was a post where someone was using safestrap.... Am I to understand this is working for those of us using Safestrap? I was assuming not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
Same here, Newest TW, CWM, of course 27 and 41 phils. No go on GPS with all.

Try this recovery, neither the newest TWRP or Philz has worked right on my phone.

Just flash in recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
Ill try it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lilpeezy23:
Awesome work here. Couple things. My gps refused to work, but I found that if you disable mobile data you can get a gps lock and then reenable it after you have the lock. Not sure why that works but it has worked consistently for me. Also there is no 4g during call simultaneously, but that's not an enormous issue.

Also would it be possible to make a quick zip to get the Verizon 4g lte icon in the status bar instead of the generic one. I don't have a computer to do it and the old mobile way I used to do it doesn't work anymore.

Overall, awesome stuff and thanks to all involved so much for your time to share this work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bluphi1914:
so how did 4G data get enabled on this? had to leave because I had no data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jthomas1987:
So far this ROM rocks. Data, WiFi, GPS all work.

The only thing that doesn't and I know it impossible to make work since the Note 2 doesn't have a FM radio built in, is the Radio app.

WHY Samsung was so stupid as to leave this out is beyond me. It draws minimal power and provides real-time information better than the net does. Guess the phone carriers just can't live without squeezing that last bit of money for data out of you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Havent tried it.. I think it is hardware related..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
Hey L8, can you look into the build prop for dn3?

I dont know much so you should back up your build prop. Hell if this doesnt work just reflash a fresh copy...

first here is what worked but didnt stick...

1) in aroma i didnt click the use s5 build prop. So this build prop is for the nd3 note. Booted up without any data. Used apn shortcut app (download from google play store) and found that the VZWINTERNET was not checked. Checked it. Still no data. Went into it and saw the apn settings and ports etc. Went out without changing anything and data popped up. Rebooted and no data. Had to go into apn settings and click on VZWINTERNET (where you see ports and shiet) and exited in order for data to work.

Here was what i did to get data to work and stick!!!

1) in aroma i used the s5 build prop. (there was an option to check this)

Booted the phone and had only CDMA (only 3g). Used root explorer and went to /system/build.prop Edited the line to enable LTE and CDMA.

telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0 to telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1

Saved and exited.

Rebooted phone. Went into settings>More Networks>Mobile Networks> Then i changed the network mode to CDMA/LTE/EDVO

Used apn shortcup app. Click on VZWINTERNET then exited. 4g went on. Rebooted.

And had 4g data ever since even after reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
This line here

telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1

enables you to have 4g on calls.. I need to switch out the settings for another so we can have APN Access point options.. Not sure why it does not stick

EDIT: thank you btw
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 2sexz32:
btw I dirty flashed over l18's debloated stock leaked 4.4.2 and it worked fine, i later went back and changed the above build.prop setting as indicated
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
No go. Still no GPS lock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevediaz:
4.4.2 not booting

my phone has been in the samsung boot logo for more than an hour, can someone please help me. im using twrp 2.7.0.1 and i wiped system, cache, dalvik cache, and data.

help me please
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tspnews:
CWM first and newest TWRP for last couple of tries. Keeping in mind I was able to flash and boot 3 different 4.4 roms with no issues. (Aside from no dock audio) just not this one. This was the only one with aroma installer but never had issues in the past with other roms using it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevediaz:
if ur locked then maybe thats the problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nlysurferdude03:
Same here. I'm on the newest TWRP 2.7.1.0, Still was not able to boot, but was able to boot the other 4.4 roms only after using odin to go back to 4.1.2. This was the first rom I've run into this issue with since then.

However, I got it to boot using the Agni kernel for 4.4.

Now, the first time I got it to boot, I choose all the S5 features, NO S5 buil.prop, and didn't have any data at all. Wifi worked.

Second time, I choose S5/N3/N2 features, S5 buil.prop, had 4G on first boot right off the bat, but if the phone rang/during a call. So I made the build.prop edit to enable that as posted a few posts back, and so far so good. Never even had to mess with apn apps or select anything in settings to get data to work. Both coming from complete clean wipes including formatting of data and rebooting into recovery.

Good luck and I hope this helps you guys that can't get it to boot, and/or have no data upon boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevediaz:
when u said clean wipes u mean system and data partition or internal storage?

can u post instruction the way u did it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nlysurferdude03:
Once in TWRP, select Wipe.

Select Advanced Wipe.

Check all of them except External SDcard and USB-OTG (Dalvik Cache, Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage)

Swipe to wipe. (I usually do this 2-3 times for good measure)

Now go back and Click Format Data.

Type in "yes"

When it's done, go back to the Main Menu

Reboot back into Recovery.

Flash Rom.

If it's not booting, Try flashing the 4.4 Agni kernel.

Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] stevediaz:
thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tspnews:
One thing I didn't try was an alternate Kernel. Maybe this coming weekend Ill give it a go .. need the phone to work for work :)

I didn't have to use Odin though. Thought I might after the hanging but recovery loaded ok and I was able to load another 4.4 rom and then back to 4.3 without issue on either.

On a side note, has anyone used this 4.4 build with an iDock or other audio dock and does it properly output audio? If not i won't bother. Thats the one feature thats hard to track down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bluphi1914:
AGNI kernel helps it boot for sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bvzxa3:
Rom looks good. However too many reboots and freezes randomly will not work since I live by this phone. Not reliable for normal conditions
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lilpeezy23:
Did you try the agni kernel when you were having the freezes and reboots? I'm using this rom and that kernel and haven't had any of those
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlanPototsky:
Can someone provide a nice clean link to the newest build. I can't seem to find the v5 newest build.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Realm11984:
I downloaded from the Beta 2 link and it showed on the file host site that it was uploaded on the 6th I think so I'm guessing that's the newest one. Everything is working great except one time after a long phone call it never came out of sleep and I had to do a battery pull. Beautiful rom, great work, thanks for bring this to us!

Edit: scratch that I don't have data either. I hadn't left the house WiFi until just now. :/

Edit: so I followed monkeyass408 suggestion and it worked great. Although all I had to do was flash with the s5 build prop and then edit the build prop and it stuck after a reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] napes22:
Are there any screenshots of the new ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] izzycade:
I saw someone ask a couple pages back if SS will work with this ROM... I didn't see an answer though... any one have an answer?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Must say I installed agni kernel and the random reboots and force closing hasn't happened since then
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bvzxa3:
No...and I am not going to. I'm not very fond of the agni kernel. The rom should work with the base kernel it comes with. It's just not stable so I went to another rom for now.

Whenever my hotspot is active and a device is connected to my hotspot I keep getting constant notifications that it's active and devices are connected. It keeps popping up and popping up. I swear it's making my battery drain quicker. Never had this happen on 4.3 and 4.2. Is there a way to disable or is that a bug?

And also. I wanna dual boot this phone with 2 different roms using devil kernel. Has anyone tried devil kernel with this. Any issues?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bcool15:
Downloaded v4 beta2VZW.zip

Flashed with philz recovery

and got stuck at samsung splash screen...forever

re wiped everything and reflashed twice more with same results....any thoughts?

I am coming from alliance rom 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nlysurferdude03:
Try the Agni kernel for 4.4, and also the newest TWRP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bcool15:
Tried cant even revert to my alliance rom now :'(

tried reflashing alliance rom and it went thru, stickin to it for time being

used USB OTG cable as mount feature wasnt really working properly kept disconnecting from pc, (my usb wires/ports are in impeccable condition)

this the first rom in years that did that to my phone, good job though devs i am looking forward to a better build

THANKS
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeyass408:
maybe md5 didnt match? everything works properly for me. I had to use agni kernel though. had too many random lockups without it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nlysurferdude03:
When you tried reverting back to your alliance backup, did you first flash back to the philz recovery you made the backup with? Don't quote me on this because I am not sure of it, but I don't think you would be able to restore a backup that was created by a different recovery.

I've never had mounting issues between the phone and pc, not quite too sure what to tell you on that one, sorry.

I am glad you got a rom back up and running though. Hopefully you can get to try out some of this goodness that is this rom. All I can say is try, try, and try again. One of these times you'll get it. Try reading back a few pages and seeing what some of the other user's have found to work when flashing this rom, if you haven't already.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] brentsten:
I Odin'd back to stock 4.1.2, unlocked, installed TWRP (though I usually use philz) and wiped absolutely everything except extsd before installing this rom. Booted up first try with no network issues except losing data when in a call. It seemed a bit sluggish after setting everything up and rebooting a few times, so I flashed the agni kernel.. Even with it oc'd to 1800mhz and aggressive profiles, it's still sluggish. Every action has a hefty delay, even the keyboard. The rom looks great, I like everything else about it, but I may end up switching to something else due to the lag.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] marx1369:
I ended up using the latest Cwm recovery and the agni kernel to flash it. Works great
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] beddess:
Anyone else finding there phone turning itself off? Has happened twice now since flashing this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bcool15:
no i didnt have backup, i never needed backups i just reinstall everything 20 apps tops i use they dont take much time to install, neither did i change recoveries..i re downloaded the alliance rom and reinstalled it, I'm glad its working now I am however pretty eager to try this once i am home i will be retrying

I have read all the pages back from here...i need much faster internet for me to try all that :) which is at home
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
TWRP hung up on me after a bad flash. I ended up reflashing Philz custom recovery and it would load zips again. I havent trusted it since. Philz all the way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] yoshix003:
After install I lost 4G LTE Network how would one remedy this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nlysurferdude03:
Haha well then, If you didn't have backups to begin with, then you got nothin to lose. When you give it a shot, if it's not booting, be sure to wipe everything AND format data, flash the rom, if you get a failed boot, then try the Agni kernel. Oh and try giving the S5 build.prop a try if you don't have data. Once I gave that a shot, data has been solid. Make the build.prop edit for that line for 4G data during calls.

---------- Post added at 08:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 PM ----------

To each their own, I've used both several times, and had bad flashes on both, a few times. Right now for me, I've had better luck on 4.4 with TWRP (and I also find it easier to do complete wipes), whereas on 4.3 and before I was on Philz. Sometimes some roms flash better with certain recoveries on certain devices, and then they will flash differently on another device with another recovery. I usually give one a shot, and if that doesn't work, try the other. If neither of those are working, flash back to 4.1.2. via Odin, reroot and unlock, and update from there. Sometimes things just need a cleaning up a bit. Usually whatever works is what I stick with, until there's another problem lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Realm11984:
So as some have mentioned random freezes and such, I too was having the problem, I don't recall who suggested it but I flashed angi kernel and have had no issues since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] megawayne:
I wasnt insulting the custom installers. I was adding what worked for me lately. I meant no disrespect on this. I am amazed that someone has the time and want to put thesr together. Its amazing how each unit act differently. I have two tablets bought same day same model. One with twrp and one with cwm. Wont respond to eother on each one. Who knows.

camera on lockscreen with Pin

This is working great for me. I had freezes and random reboots but after installing Agni kernel, things seems much better. Quick question, is there anyway to get the camera on the Pin lockscreen? The camera shows on swipe lockscreen but not for any security lockscreens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Maybe there is a xposed module for it.. but it would defeat the purpose of a pin lock if you have camera icon to Bi pass it..
