[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Timtown:
Excellent team work.

Just want to say "Thank you" to all involved for developing and packaging this ROM. It was a long, sometimes rocky road to upgrade but, in this case, perseverance paid-off.

A wee bit of history here: I've been flashing devices since about 2005. I don't buy a device until it has a healthy development community on XDA. In fact, I consider the XDA community one of the greatest resources on the web. I'm stunned more people don't avail themselves of the content provided at this site. I'm also stunned by the absolutely astounding number of XDAers that are so unwilling to do anything more than clutter a thread with some "freak-out" post because <X> app "FC's all the time". Wow, Thanks for contributing. Okay, meds kicking in...over the "old man" moment...and on to the meat of my post.

As stated above, my upgrade to X2 wasn't the smoothest of paths. I'll spare the gory details and just give a brief synopsis of my issues: First attempt (late Jan.) failed. Waited a week so I could do more research and attempted again. And, again a platform too unstable. After rolling back to JMX18, for the third time (Sweet ROM, BTW), I continued my research and planned my next upgrade attempt. I finally found the excellent instructions posted by both "zuckerj" and "pyraxiate" and followed 'em to the letter. And, whadayaknow...I now have very clean, very snappy, super-smooth X2 install. Tip-o-the-cap to both of you for your excellent instructions.

The difference between success and my previous attempts was, based on observation, two-fold. 1) First upgrading to a rooted, base ROM (which should just be defacto on all upgrades) and; 2)Selective restoration of apps and/or data from back-up.Throughout this entire process, I've probably reinstalled, rebooted, restored, formatted, fixed permissions, and factory- wiped a billion times. It's taken me about five weeks, total, to get where I am now.

But, despite all my difficulties- instead of posting, I researched, and, in every instance found answers. In fact, this is my only post in this thread. So, if you're having some issue(s) that seem(s) insurmountable, odds are it's you/your device, not the code.

Now, my Note II is rock-stable and super-smooth. I'll be throwing some well-deserved coinage into the tip-jar. Thanks to all involved.

I'm getting close to getting it working. Might take a few throat punches but I'll get it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
I just mean as far as updates go. We haven't had an update since like November I think Lmao.

I'm not worried though. It runs phenomenal for me and the only update I want is KitKat. So whenever tmobile decides to release it lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
I don't understand the appeal in KitKat. Seems most the people complaining of bugs on XDA are on KitKat.

So many apps are just not working right on that version of android, I think I'll pass.

Sent from my Jedi MasterX Note 2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Well, if you use art which is optional in dev settings, not all apps are going to be compatible with it.

And if they aren't on official builds or they are on some cm variant I don't think those complaints hold any water.

From the time I've played around with it on my n7 it's incredible how much smoother it is. Although, I have reverted to 4.3 because PA roms don't have halo on 4.4 yet.

But, seriously, 4.4 is a vast improvement over 4.3
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
On Xhalo all the 4.4 people are saying that can't open more than one window at a time.

Seems even more crying on Wanam.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Ya whenever a new version comes out there will be problems with mods. Lots of code can change between versions.

When 4.3 came out it was the same thing. But as far as normal functioning goes it's a lot better on 4.4
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
I'm running 4.4 on my OLD OLD Xoom and I am loving it! It has given my OLD OLD Xoom a new lease on life. I was going to install 4.4 then give it to my toddler, but I can't let it go now. He'll just have to wait until daddy is finished playing with his toys.

What's the main difference between MasterX and MasterX2. X just seemed much smoother to me. Did the Wanam problems get worked out for the x2 causing the camera problems?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ianchua:
The wanam problem is fixed by an update from Wanam himself

The diff between X and X2 is some Note3 features like The multi window part being implemented.

Note3 launcher etc
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] zuckerj:
Yep. I compared the Wanam generated feature.xml to Samsung's and noticed some capitalization differences in the value assignments for entries related to the camera. I simply adjusted the casing to match the original Samsung file and Viola, working camera.

You can find the details in the Jedi Master X FAQ located here http://zuck.com/xda/JediMasterX-FAQ.html

Wanam updated his feature.xml quickly after the report, so all is working now simply by updating to the latest Wanam Xposed.

Thank you! Unfortunately for whatever reason the app wouldn't install. I Tried disabling my other calendar apps too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
When ptmr3 has time off course it will be. However, for the time being development is on a slight hold.

There were changes made in 4.3 that made implementing those toggles and others like flashlight more difficult to implement.

Did you try installing or pushing it to /system/app? im very sure this is a system app, so a regular install will fail.

Use a root browser like root explorer or ES File Explorer to copy the app to /system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r--. Try that.

False. Deleting a file 3 times is possible and preferred. Since a "delete" is simply a 0x000000 overwrite. The funny thing about flash memory though, is that even when you do a 0x000000 overwrite, there are fault-checks that still contain the old data, in case corruption occurs. So, yes, deleting the right way the first time SHOULD do, but with redundancy fault-checks in place for nand, I make absolutely sure that the partition I'm deleting, gets deleted.

The filesize is 1.01gb (1,087,299,151 Bytes)

MD5 for version 1 is in OP md5-e80ce4f41c98e6f87b89c5c584fc087d

It shouldn't take longer than a minute to get past the boot-splash (Galaxy Note 2 screen).

If any of these don't match, you definitely need to download again.

Also, something I've been noticing: everyone that has made a complaint has an updated TWRP version. 2.6.3.1

Maybe something in this version is incompatible with Aroma? New doesn't necessarily mean better. I have 2.6.3.0 and flashed with no issue. Also, someone else suggested CWM Touch. Maybe try that?

As for faster downloads: Where's pyraxiate when you need him? :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] vebulous:
Its always better to leave it off. In fact, airplane mode is the best for battery. :p

Personally, when i'm at home, i turn wifi on. when I go out and drive/travel/work, i turn it off. I leave mobile network on all the time, since it gets auto-disabled when you connect to wireless. THat way, as long as I'm in range of something, I have internet access.

I also keep Android beam and s-beam on all the time (even though, sadly, I don't use them as much as i had wished)

I keep BT and GPS off unless i explicitly need them.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Formatting doesn't actually delete data. When you format, the sectors that contain data are marked as "empty, available for use" that's why you can format hard drives, sd cards and ssd and still recover files from them. The data is only "lost" when the data sector it was stored on is written to again. Even then most times, you can partially recover the lost data.

Now, if you truly want to delete that data just in case the government comes knocking on your door, just pop those bad boys in a microwave ;)

Thanks ptmr3,i sent you something because it's about time after using the JediX18-20's. Please keep updating whenever you are able.

Namsir thanks for posting what worked got you. I'm on T-MO (SGH-T889). I first tried to write the latest TWRP using Goo, After rebooting i never got past the Note II screen. So then i used ODIN and flashed t0ltetmo-recovery.img.tar. I then tried to flash the rom but just got repeated freezes at the Note II screen. I removed my external card, numerous wipes

and still the freeze. I then went thru the install using your suggestion W/O wiping again and finally finished. After the wait i flashed the kernel. The signal isn't holding for anything so I'm going to flash the modem in the morning, i need some sleep!:silly:

Works great for me. Haven't run into any issues yet. I followed the directions exactly and the phone hasn't made any indication of crashes, errors, or slowdowns.Battery life has also been great despite constant use nearly all day. At first I was having some issues connecting my Google Glass, but those were definitely errors with Glass itself, which I was able to resolve. I haven't been able to confirm whether Google Glass is working with Bluetooth 4.0 LE. If anyone knows of a way to determine this, I would be open to trying it out. Also, the speed difference between 4.3 and 4.1.2 (Master 18) is astounding.

If they catch you they just give you an upset message. The key is to block it initially on the device, the tethering hack, then you have to mask the data in some manner so it appears to the network like it is coming from a mobile device and not a pc.

I decided to tackle the Flash annotate anomaly we're getting with the "Unfortunately, FlashAnnotate has stopped" message when trying to save a modifed screenshot.

More of a replacement than a fix, I opted to use the FlashAnnotate.apk and FlashAnnotateSvc from Jedi Master X 1.

You guys know the drill:

Use a root-capable file browser

Navigate to /system/app and rename flashannotate.apk to whatever (some do flashannotate.apk.orig. I prefer to use flashannotate.apk.jmx2.xbackup as a backup scheme)

Do the same for flashannotatesvc.apk (rename)

Copy the apk's I attached (or extract them yourself from the Jedi MasterX zip) to /system/app

Set permissions to rw-r--r-- on both files

Restart your phone

Test it

To me, it seems like Samsung's S Note 3 apps are incompatible with our devices. On top of that, I'm not digging the S Note 3 apps suite. I like our old S Note 2 apps just fine. Something about the way the pen is treated like a vector instead of a raster. Whatever.

S Note 2 good. FlashAnnotate 2 good. S Note 3 and Flash Annotate 3 make me sad.

I tried using the flashannotate from Jedi Master 18, but it wasn't working at all. Not one bit.

Enjoy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ianchua:
Did you move the app to system and change permissions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] noellenchris:
I also tried to get treve to work, but nogo for me. I used to use Chrome with the browser masked as Android device and that would work. But I got tired of not using IE or sometimes I just wanted to update stuff etc. So now I pay for 4.5gb since it was the same price I used to pay before the price cuts. So I then tested, logging the Tethered data via their (TMobile) app. If I used the built in Wifi Tether it wouldn't work and my tether data would increase. So now I use the Wifi Router and I can watch Netflix without increasing data used for tethering. As a matter of fact I run the Wifi Router at work and 2 other people use it, one guy on his Chromebook and the other is a guy on Verizon where he's Data capped...lol. Glad those caps are over on TMobile. Anyhow, I don't think it's possible for them to catch me, I do use the default tether just to burn up some of my 4.5gb data...:P

Also according to Wifi Router's website if you choose Native Tether from the config/Method option it will use the native tether and not increase your tether data. Haven't fully verified that method yet, but the native tether seems to use less power and the other methods make my phone get pretty warm and sometimes it won't wake up. So I plan on checking that option out this week at work. Ok that's enough clogging up the rom thread about wifi tether....:P If you have any other questions I guess about wifi tether just PM me. Good luck.

When the data packets go through their system they can see that it is from a pc and not a mobile phone. Hence the user agent changer. VPN might work too. But to my understanding that can make your ping bad.
