Dam, I've got a T-Mobile SGH-T889 that I have tried EVERYTHING to and still No Signal, Either weak Edge or Circle of death with line through it (Bounces in and out, toggling between both). I have tried everything! Different NV Files from different phones, SELinux Changer, 5 Different ROMS, Back to stock with Kies, The only thing I have not tried was different Kernels. I get WiFi, I get Bluetooth, just no signal. I have Jedi Master Back on it for the moment.

Scratching Head. Ready to sell this one to the Dogs... Lol.

Anyone got a trick up their sleeve I haven't thought of?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
Maybe a phone with a blocked IMEI?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Are you getting signal on stock fine?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] alanmv567:
Was able to finally install X2 lol. The autocorrect doesn't work for the samsung keyboard huh?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
I believe they had to remove it because apple sued them or something. Not sure.

Great time to give SwiftKey a try. Far better than the samsung keyboard.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
No, No Signal on any ROM

---------- Post added at 10:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------

No, IMEI is good. I get little to no Signal. Bounces from No Signal Bars (Just Grey Signal Area), to Edge (Maybe one bar at times) to The Circle with Line through it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Ok, that could mean one of two things.

First would be blocked imei. Which you've ruled out.

Second, would be hardware. If it's not working on any rom and you've tried different modems and you're still getting no signal, it very well may be broken hardware.

If that's the case, you might be able to get it repaired fairly cheap depending on where you live. Or you know, buy a note 3 lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Yeah, Was hoping it wasn't hardware. But I can't think of what else it could be. Definitely not the IMEI. I am trying to fix it for a friend and was told that it was fine BEFORE the 4.3 Update with Kies (Don't know that to be 100% Accurate).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
I remember you saying you tried stock roms, but did you Odin to stock or did you just flash using a custom recovery? Theres a link to a package im hosting in our jedi faq which Includes odin and Mr Robinson's stock rooted rom ( which includes bootloader and radio ). Give that a shot if you havent already.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
All I have used is Kies, and then custom Recovery (Latest 2.7 TWRP) to flash ROMS, Have not tried odin and Mr Robinson's stock rooted rom. You say that is in the faq section?

You mean here? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975560

I'll DL one and try it with Odin.... Anything is worth a shot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Go to sammobile.com and dl the tar file for odin from there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
okay.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
It's going to be the most surefire way to make sure it isn't software.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] alanmv567:
Thanks I'll give swiftkey a try. I purchased it a while back but got used to the samsung keyboard.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rekamyenom:
Still Nothing, No matter what I flash via Odin or Custom Recovery, Can't register on Network. Oh well....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
I live SwiftKey, the more you use it the better it gets.

I would guess it's a hardware issue then. Sorry man.

Had a few bad sim cards in the past, did the same thing.....after I thoroughly messed with my phone I replaced the sim and whammo it worked.. Just a though.

Hardware isn't teo hard to fix. There are YouTube videos showing how to disassemble and replace parts.

Most posts cost around $10 they just plug in
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] alanmv567:
The imei on my phone says it's no good but I'm barely able to use it with a sim card. That's a question I have for anyone in the Los Angeles/long beach area. Is your service reliable with tmobile or does it cut off most of the time? Also in theme parks is service good for you? Because for me it just sucks at Disneyland and universal studios Hollywood. I have it set to permissive so I wouldn't think that's the problem. I'm reluctant to change to Verizon as my job is mostly in places where tmobile can't reach.

---------- Post added at 06:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 PM ----------

I might have to order a hardware to see if that's the issue with mines. Stood in two different places out in the open and it wouldn't connect at all. Reluctant to switch back to Hedi x20 but when I try to through twrp it fails to.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] psycho4us4:
I'm in Orange County. Service is reliable except at theme parks like you mentioned. I went to disneyland 65 times last year and service always sucked as soon as I entered the park.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] alanmv567:
Haha thanks. It's funny cause I'm literally outside of a Supercuts building and I have no service unless I move about a block away... Have to use my Hotspot device freedompop
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] vebulous:
No, he was referring to this: http://zuck.com/xda/JediMasterX-FAQ.html

Our Unofficial Official Jedi Master X FAQ.

If you experience crap service, try the T-Mobile website and see their service map http://www.t-mobile.com/coverage.html

If it states you have any kind of decent coverage, call them up and complain. More than likely they'll make you factory reset, so having stock rom installed may also help. Just thoughts here, guys.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] UnixSlayer:
I've been having the same problems. But from what I hear, T-Mobile has been booted off of AT&T cell towers. T-Mobile sent me a signal booster for my house, because I couldn't even get a 4g signal. Where all along I was getting 4g LTE service at my home for the past year, and had no problems. Problem for me started in late February. T-Mobile has been trying to give me all these weird new offers to stay with them. But I'm getting frustrated. I just want my 4g LTE signal back.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] spg900ny:
I could be mistaken, but I heard the AT&T / T-Mo tower sharing agreement was for 3G, and it was for seven years. I don't think it was designed to give you the "best" signal -- it was so that in rural areas where T-Mobile had ZERO coverage, AT&T towers would provide at least Edge service to T-Mobile customers.

Again, I could be wrong, but that was my understanding of the deal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jimcarl13:
battery drain

hey gang can anyone help with this? I put master x2 on my daughters note2 i317 chose t-mo as carrier she had me add most of the optional programs in aroma. the install seemed fine; the phone seems to work correctly but the battery dies in about 4 hours and the top of the phone near the earpiece gets very warm. when you check the battery stats in settings it says that android is eating all the battery. the phone has had 3 or four full charging cycles to settledown and build cache
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mexigga:
+1

Will also add to this... installed today on i317 and selected tmobile.

Phone gets hot as described above.

When screen shuts off it will not come back on for about 5 minutes despite numerous button presses.

Data disconnects randomely. APN was fine even though greyed out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
Yikes, not sure what could be causing your problem.

My best guess is that you have a buggy app in there grinding gears. I find that the temperature starts to get noticeable at 50C

I would suggest another full wipe and start over from scratch.

You did wipe system correct?

Most those options I leave out, I prefer to install what I want from the play store.

Also I know it's not recommended by ptmr3 but Agni kernel might help too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingnarkissos:
I agree with ash 359 that's it's most likely an app. I've used Jedi for a very long time and never have experienced that issue. I'm also not a daughter so I would think that what's causing that is something I've never used. =)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mexigga:
I had not installed any apps yet when the screen stopped coming on...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] blessup:
I read both those post and they provided zero help? 81 says 1st version be patient but that post is months old and there has been no word if this rom is being developed any further after the ops move to note 3. Dont understand why everyone gets so butt hurt if someone asks if this rom is still being developed or if there will be future updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ash359:
Being on the Padawan thread for so long I understand how older devices don't get the development that the newer ones get.

Ptmr3 has a lot on his plate both with ROMs and with his regular life. Updates are not so frequent but they are well worth the wait.

If you want frequent updates you pretty much have to have the latest device. This applies to most ROMs I have seen.

I'm sure he will get around to our device again, it's just a matter of when he has the time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sapps:
Would you like to know why? Here it is. Have you ever given someone a present and then a few days later have that person ask, "hey thanks for your last gift but when can I expect another gift".

No, you probably haven't. Why not? Cause it's rude and disrespectful.

Yes, then you probably thought "wow, that's pretty rude."

Hopefully this helps you to understand.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Update requests can be construed as being a demand for progress reports etc. Such is the hallmark of a employee/employer relationship OR a sign of an expectation of production. It implies a service provider relationship.The devs do this for free.

There is no requirement for them to produce or update anything. If more work is done and released it is because they are generous with their time and effort.

Asking about updates is tantamount to telling a friend that the short story they wrote you as a gift is getting stale, that you would like a rewrite, and that you expect them to get it to you soon.

While that may not be how we intended it but how we can be perceived.

If a ROM is not to my liking or preferences I move on. If a ROM is quirky I have to make a decision based on the what is in front of me. This ROM has quirks, nearly all have a workaround available. I use it as it is a good option for my needs. I flip between this and Omni about every other week. I am happy with both developers work.

So I'm stuck, I have a t-mobile note 2. I installed Jedi X2 and love it, except I have a very poor quality network coverage, drops after 10-50 seconds on the phone. I can't turn on my wifi and I have tried to install the wifi patch in ODIN, but I keep getting a failed notice. I have tried all the modems.

Any help is greatly appreciated as I really like the ROM, but without modem and wifi working. I guess I have to go back to jedi x20
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ColorNapkin:
I can't help you with your problem because I had the same issue on this version of the ROM. What I did was go back to the previous version. It's just as solid as this one and I've been running it as my daily since December with no issues other than sometimes having to reboot every few days.

The previous version is not 4.3, though, but I haven't found myself needing it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Set SELinux to permissive. There is an app for that our via xposed. Use Agni pure stock kernel for WiFi support or apply the kernel patch properly via PC Odin.

You are almost there...

I re-installed with another full wipe and the only programs I installed were visual voice mail and chrome. Thank You for the good advice and for answering my question so quickly. The rom has been working well for a few days now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] messerchmidt:
I am using this rom and it is running painfully slow. I was reading that wiping the dalvik cache and letting it rebuild was required.

some questions

1) when I wipe the dalvik will clear the phone right?

2) how do I let it rebuild properly so this slow down problem does not return?

3) is there anything else I can / should do?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Did you do a full wipe and upgrade to 4.3 before you flashed MasterX?

Wiping dalvik won't help speed up your phone. The dalvik cache is built to compile the apps so they work with your phones hardware. Dalvik is how Google makes it so app developers can get their apps to work on so many devices.

Also, wiping dalvik won't delete any meaningful data. All it will legitimately do is make your next reboot take longer.

If your phone is running slow, make sure you don't have something hogging up your system resources.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] messerchmidt:
i odin'ed it to 4.3 and booted into it, then reloaded twrp and flashed jedi. it has been getting slower and slower. has 712mb free ram when i check it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
You don't need free ram with Android. If you're doing something to stop apps/kill them from memory stop doing it.

So I reflashed it to Jedi Master X2 and then put the Agni pure stock kernel and then applied the kernel patch via PC Odin. Almost all works, but now I don't have GPS and the phone is hard to wake up?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] starkruzr:
Mine is also really slow to wake up after installing this, and the "Media" process seems to be consuming enormous amounts of power. It's also on AC power and won't charge. The one good thing about it is that my camera finally works again after about 4 months of trying various ROMs without the camera working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] xxmrdavis:
Hello I am having a Similar issue involving the circle with the line slashed and no signal on the jedimasterx2 rom i did ota to 4.3 and wiped everything and flashed can anyone help? thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
You need to set Selinuxmode to permissive.

Check by going to settings, the more tab, and about. Towards the bottom is information on whether Selinuxmode is set to enforcing ( causing the no signal issue ). You want it to say turned off or permissive.

If that's the case, download Selinuxmode changer on the play store. Set to permissive and reboot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mexigga:
No. I was using the one flashed during ROM install.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Did you do a full wipe first?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ianchua:
For the slow wake up,Disable activating Svoice by the home button
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] starkruzr:
Thanks. It also seems to periodically drop off the network now, and the GPS doesn't work at all. Any ideas re: that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mexigga:
Yes. Both attempts.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] vebulous:
Dropping off the network is most likely due to the SELinux Mode set to Enforcing. See http://zuck.com/xda/JediMasterX-FAQ.html#data-drops

As for GPS not working, this is a new issue. Of the 4000+ posts, I don't think anyone has mentioned that except for you and [MENTION=4947203]coffeemade[/MENTION]

If you go to Settings ->More -> Location services Are all 3 checkboxes enabled? [See attachment1]

If the first checkbox is not enabled; GPS is prohibited from working. That means fine location locks (via GPS) and coarse location locks (via cell network) will not work. Make sure everything is enabled and you have to agree to some Google terms and conditions for network location locks (via cell network).

Other than that, there may be some issues with modules not loading in the kernel...which would be pretty weird since the kernel is what was baked from the start.

Absolute worst case scenario is that your GPS antenna could be dead (It happens. it sucks, but it can happen). It that's the case, try a factory reset, troubleshoot it some more and if it still doesn't work, load stock TouchWiz and see if that brings it to life. If that doesn't work....pray.

We'll be here to guide you.

And for everyone else, if you run into trouble with any other issue, or may have a question, please read the original post (again if necessary). If you're still stuck, take a look at our colorful Unofficial Official Jedi Master X FAQ over here: http://zuck.com/xda/JediMasterX-FAQ.html

We've covered almost everything in there for your viewing pleasure.

EDIT: One thing I failed to mention about the GPS part, if you see the GPS icon but are not getting a signal lock, your A-GPS settings may be bad. You can use GPS Status & Toolbox to reset A-GPS data to lock on GPS satellites quicker.

Open the GPS Status app and hit the menu softkey -> Tools -> Manage A-GPS state

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] GPSRider:
Sluggish

Thanks for the thoughts. I have reinstalled the ROM at least twice since my last post, and while the phone is quicker at first, it gets progressively more sluggish after just a couple of days.

Can you recommend a specific program that will help me determine if there is an app that is hogging system resources? I looked in the app store without success, so perhaps I am not familiar enough to know what I need. From the stock system tools, it does not appear that anything is hogging the system, but I am learning and will gratefully try anything you can suggest.

Is it possible that I have done something wrong at installation or that by experimenting with other ROM's, I have left behind the wrong kernal or something? It was my understanding that the kernal was captured and restored with CWM. Is that not right?

Finally, one more question. Does a factory reset/user data wipe actually erase everything on the internal storage, or does it leave some files behind? The reason I ask is because my JM 18 backup is now reporting as out of memory immediately after a restore, which only makes sense to me if some files are remaining on the phone after a wipe.

All help and suggestions very much appreciated. My N2 is so slow now that I am having use a different phone, and that's a real drag.

Cheers,

GR
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] cjbrigol:
Wow this is incredibly specific and exactly what I came here for. Thank you.

Mine's a little weird tho. I was using this rom for a few months (since it came out) and changed to DU 4.4.2 a couple days ago. Turns out I can't live without touchwiz on this phone. The google camera app makes the pictures look like crap and I love my S-Pen too much.

Anyway, so I switched back, (full wipe and new install) and touchwiz is force closing when I hit the home button every...1.5 hours or so. So like any good nerd, I turn it off and on again. Touchwiz home stopped force closing, but then I started getting the data loss issue. So I reinstall the ROM (no wipe this time) and we're back to square one. So I did your suggestion. Now do you have anything for Touchwiz home force closing? I'm using the 5x5 one (same as before, and it never FC).

TL;DR Touchwiz home 5x5 force closing randomly when I hit home button from inside of different apps. What do?

is this the kernel that is compatible on this rom? im not sure what to download because there is too many result about devil kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kushXmaster:
Download better battery stats from the play store. That'll help you see if something is hogging resources.

No, the kernel is not captured by cwm or twrp. The kernel is included in the rom zip and is flashed every time you load it.

You may need to do an internal data wipe. This will delete EVERYTHING on your internal memory block. Make sure you back up everything you want. You will need to have the rom on an external sd card.

The way storage is handled between 4.2 and 4.3 is different so that could be causing you to have no memory available. This is where doing an advanced wipe helps.

I would also recommend twrp over cwm.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pyraxiate:
Back up your internal storage. Do a full wipe with twrp / cwm ( /system /data /storage /cache ). Place the install zip on your external storage. Check the Md5 to ensure you don't have a bad download. A corrupt file will still flash and will absolutely cause headaches like FC's all over.

What recovery are you using? What bootloader are you on?
