I just flash to this rom v2 from stock rom v4.1.2. for me only 3 steps:

1. wipe everything- data, SYSTEM, cache and dalvik

2. copy the rom zip file to external SD, install the zip from external SD in recovery mode

3. wipe user data again

4. reboot. that is it.

seems boots up fine, able to finish welcome setup wizard. camera works fine. PC is able to recognize the phone via USB as a storage

Problem:

Not able to turn on the Wi-Fi function, tried to turn it on, but it switch off right the way by itself.

Question:

how do I know if I am on the new OTA bootloader or not?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
If you came feom stock 4.1.2 then you dont have the 4.3 ota bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jialing:
Thanks. looks like the ota bootloader is not necessary. I was able to fix the Wi-Fi problem.

Problem 1:

but still not able to get Tethering and Hotspot to turn on, Keep getting "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" error. any one has fix for this???

Problem 2:

also, I found out, there is no Mobile Data buttons for me to choose to show in Notification Panel. any way to make it happen?

Thanks a lot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
I'll jump in for the tethering. I had given Matt the framework-res that I said was modified for tethering already from my ROM I'm working on. Turns out I mixed up the files and gave him the wrong one. So it's my fault with the settings fc. I believe he posted the original file in the op to fix that and I'm going to make right in my error and just redo the mod Monday. Unless he beats me to it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
I dont see any fixed framework-res file on the op.

I'm trying to remove the ongoing Tmobile notification...but can't seem to locate it. Did they change the name of it...cause because I remember it being under tmobile....something.

Nevermind...found it. Not a system app anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
to fix tethering take a look at edkeys rom thread for a tethering fix

not yet

v2 has carrier iq removed, supersu doesn't freak out, and more apps moved to data/app

I have a Verizon note 2 and using it on tmobile will this rom on the phone? Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
im not sure. since the modem is not included it shouldn't hurt to give it a try.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jialing:
just tried, still has tethering provision has stopped error. :(

also in pass 2 days, My note 2 had fully freeze for 2 times. need to pull out battery to power off it. may be related to OC. is there a way to disable OC?

Thanks a lot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
overclock? I didn't overclock this kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
This flashable zip will revert your framework-res.apk and your TetheringProvisioning.apk back to stock. These are not patched so you'll need to have a tethering plan or find another way to tether until a patch is available.

I am going to install this ROM. I think I have the instructions down, but I do have a question. There are 3 Devil's kernels for the n7200 and 3 for the t0lte. I obviously know to use the t0lte, but which one out of the 3? Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Matt you have a pm...again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ms2knights:
Ok, so I got everything installed, and it seems to be running really well and stable. However, when I go into Wanam and change things, nothing changes after reboot. just wondering, if I am missing something. Otherwise, I really like this ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Did you open x posed installer and install framework and activate wanman module?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ms2knights:
I did not know I had to do that. Thanks a lot for telling me. Everything works fine now.

no more FCs!

good job!

tethering works too!

when i launched playstore after replacing the file it asked for me to login to my google acct again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
awesome make sure you give thanks to kintwofan!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] premiatul:
If what the changelog says are the only changes made in ver.2, then it's no use for me to update.

I have removed the carrier iq myself some time ago, never had problems with super Su, never tether, I moved my own apps...

Question, those are the only changes, or there is more under the hood?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
I used an updated kitchen. so busybox is updated so no more asking if you want to fix root in recovery. this should be a little better. I would recommend the new version. you could probably dirty flash it and not lose data
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
in case anyone asks, this does not bypass the tethering bandwidth limits of your plan.

I dont think there are any in 4.2+ build.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ms2knights:
Do I just go into recovery and flash the new framework-res.apk? Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
No. I didn't make it flashable add originally I was just sending it to Matt to include in the ROM.

1 extract the files

2. Drop csc folder in /system and allow it to overwrite

3 drop framework-res.apk in /system/framework and overwrite. It'll probably hotboot here, that's okay.

4. I recommend to boot into recovery wipe caches and fix permission l

5. Enjoy

I'll make it flashable when I get a minute unless someone beats be to it.

---------- Post added at 04:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 AM ----------

It should have. Do you're still getting the upsell page? Is everyone else?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jialing:
First of all, this fixed those popup error message about tether provisioning. allow me to turn on the hotspot ,setup it up and my laptop is able to get wireless connect to the hotspot. but still redirect to T-Mobile upsell page, even with user-agent enabled on google chrome.

I tried WiFi Tether app (the 3rd party one), it works fine, but it will freeze my phone every time when I close it.

here is the screenshot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Can you try this for me. Go to your apn settings and change the tethering apn to epc.tmobile see if that helps. Also, you did use the modified csc files too correct? I'm going to look around for another tethering hack method.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jialing:
my APN setting keep switching back to fast.t-mobile.com by itself. wont stay on epc.tmobile.com :(

yes, I overwrote all 3 files from your zip
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
I've never gotten the upsell page ever since 4.1.2, but it still counts towards your allotted tethering bandwidth. so if you have a plan with 2GB avail on tether, it still increments the usage.

in the past you would have to remove all apns except for fast.tmo and then execute something like:

su -c "iptables -tnat -A natctrl_nat_POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/16 -o rmnet_usb0 -j MASQUERADE"

then it bypassed the tethering bandwidth counts.

but with all the current mods, it does not work even with the iptables command. The only thing i havent done was wipe all the APNs, i want to still be able to roam when i leave the country.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
maybe try a clean flash?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
i'm not saying that tethering does not work,

I'm just saying that it's counting towards your allotted tethering bandwidth.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
A clean flash may fix this is what I'm saying
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
it does not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
Have you tried? This is what I mean by clean flash.

Load the files from kintwofans zip into the ROM zip

Wipe system data cache and dalvik

Flash ROM with the fixes applied
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
I'll try that later, but i doubt it will work.

I already included the features.xml and customer.xml csc files into your v2 build and flashed them. i actually needed to modify the files further by modifying a few nfc entries in order to get wallet working. If you need help with that I can assist you.

I applied the new modded framework file after the rom loaded.

I read somewhere that some csc settings only take effect on first boot, which is why i initially included in your v2 package to test on a clean install. but i dont think framework-res apk gets modded in anyway during first boot, it's an apk and it shouldnt be modified unless it gets installed again.

but's worth a shot, just to prove myself wrong.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
this is a community project so I will take any help in adding new features

do you have a place to upload files?

If you use all share and screen mirroring:

you need to install this modded so file to disable hdcp checking.

Also, thanks to loserskater:

http://forumxda-developers.downloadwindows8.me/showthread.php?p=45899656

In the zip file below I already included

1) the modified nfcee_access.xml as part of the zip file.

2) the features.xml file contains mods from loserskater's post and kintwofan's zip.

all you have to do is install download and install loserskater's com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel-2.0-R151-v8-MODDED-update.apk (NOTE: it's the very last one listed in his OP)

it was a bit buggy for me but it works. the older version work better, but you have to use a different nfcee_access.xml
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
I just use androidfilehost.com
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
i updated my post, didnt know i could attach a file. not sure if you can just include the wallet apk as part of your rom, it has to be installed as a user app. also if google happens to update wallet through play store, the wallet tap and pay feature wont work anymore. at that point you have uninstall updates on the wallet app.

i dont know if you want to include the wallet mod, but if you do it will break isis compatibility, so it probably should be an optional recovery install...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] martybg:
how do I overwrite the Wifi tether files I tried root explorer and ES file explorer but it doesn't let me overwrite even with ROOT turned on
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
do this ^
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] martybg:
come on man let's be more exact here

1st do I extract the rom files?

2nd where do the files from Wifi patch files?

we are not all devs you know?

this thread becomes like recycle bin, just because there's not enough exponation I don't think anyone's fingers would hurt very bad to write down the exact instructions, damn
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
1. open the system zip from kintwofan

2. take your rom zip and open it up ( I use 7zip for opening zips)*no need to extract just open

3. pull the files from the system zip and put them in the appropriate folders in the rom zip

4. flash rom

ps im no dev either
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:

I need some help here. I was running on this ROM fine for a couple of days, then suddenly today it went into a constant bootloop. I went into the Devil's recovery, and cleaned and wiped everything, and then reinstalled everything according to the OP as before. Now, It will not boot beyond the "T-Mobile 4G LTE" screen. It has stayed on this for over an 2 hours now. Can someone please advise me on what to do. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jialing:
can anyone else confirm this WiFi Tether fixed reroute problem or not ? (all website you try to visit all goes to T-Mobile site " You have reached this page because you do not have Smartphone Mobile HotSpot service or have exceeded your included service allotment ")

I still get reroute. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
Try fastbooting twrp and try again. If this don't work try using Odin to go to stock
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ms2knights:
I am going to try and restore in recovery from the backup I made before installing this ROM. I really don't quite understand the directions with fastbooting twrp and so on, that you advised. So I will try restoring, and see how it goes. If all goes well, I will redo everything, and try the ROM again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ascrackoo1:
I have a feeling that T-mobile is still checking on their end somehow.

i think the tethering provision apk only enforces settings and checks if you have the plan. but there's something else that's checking when you tether.

if you do a netcfg while tethering you'll see rmnet_usb1 is active with what ever APN you have it setup with.

I'm guessing they are checking when rmnet_usb1 is active.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] martybg:
Yea I encounter the same problem.. on JediX ROM I have no problem to Tether when turned User agent on but here it detects me even if the user agent is ON

Can anyone tell me if the Browser for this Rom is based on Chrome?

And if its not then can someone upload it for me?

TIA
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattlowry:
im pretty sure chrome is already included
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Double0EK:
Sorry. .I didn't specify myself.

I know there is Chrome but there should be another "Samsung Browser". That's the one I need to know if it's based on Chrome or based off AOSP.

You can check if you type: about:debug in the address bar of the browser.. if one says Chrome//debug might be temporarily down then its based on Chrome.. if it doesn't then its based on AOSP and it should give extra Browser Settings. .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Double0EK:
I just re-downloaded the Rom. The SecBrowser.apk is based on AOSP!

I just wanted it because it will support Flash. The SBrowser.apk on DN3 is based off of Chrome so it wouldn't support Flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] premiatul:
Can you please share the browser with us?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Double0EK:
If you're using this Rom then its already built in.

But I'll share it regardless.

SecBrowser.apk

Push to /system/app

Set permissions rw-r--r--

Reboot

I am using this Rom and flash used to work perfectly. However, after trying DN3, I came back to SWORM flashing back my nandroid.

Since then I have 1 tv news channel that FC'es my browser

and it used to work on it.

I can't find what the problem is.

You can try it yourself (in Desktop Mode) and see if it works for you:
