Two things - maybe someone can help...

I have a bootani and sound I really like and use all the time. I usually put bootanimation.zip in system/media and PowerOn.ogg in system/media/ui, fix permissions, reboot, and Voila! My familiar bootani and sound. Tried it on this rom and nothing... Anyone?

I'm also used to updating PRL and Profile when I switch ROMs and while I didn't go uber-deep in the menus, I don't recall seeing a place to do that... did I just miss it?

Any help will be appreciated!

Are you restoring any app or adding any mods (xposed, gravity box, etc..)?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Dang, I was hoping you could write to /system/media/ with this ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] na_tra:
Yes, I restored all apps from LORJAY's rom on two phones. Both have had random reboot. No adding any MODs. I did not have any for when I did it in LORJAY rom.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] philseven:
Okay will give a try thanks

It worked great thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I would suggest a clean install without restoring anything. If you need the apps try downloading from playstore and starting out with fresh setups. Then if you still have problems let me know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] na_tra:
I think the restoration has to do something with it. The reboot happened during the TBP restoration process 2 or 3 times. Hopefully, it wont happen again. I try to keep the scores for my son's games. That's why I did the restoration.

Flashed this, rebooted and it FCs almost everything, starting with Titanium Backup during boot, even before I clear lockscreen...

Thank God for Nan Droid!!!

:rolleyes:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
You must be talking about a different rom entirely, this rom does not have titanium back up, you may want to go to the thread for the rom you installed for support
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] iquit040:
hmmm

I tested that zip numerous times along with the bears one. Not sure why it cause dc for you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
Titanium Backup is an APP, Keith, which a user installs to keep track of, and back up, stuff. It loads in the background at boot. Rom to Rom going all the way back to my OG4G Evo days, I've never had a single issue with it.

Surprised you don't know this app...

:eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Me too, and you can if you download an app from play store called Super Manager. I found that the other day and it works. You can mount system as R/W and do what you want. When you install the app, go into settings and select ROOT, then grant SU permission, and all will be good.

I've been trying to get the stock kernel to allow for mounting and remounting, but apparently it takes a little more than editing the default.prop which I have done. If anyone knows what else I need to to do make it writable, please let me know. I just assumed it was something to do with SELinux...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] moa4:
can you make one for Denver Broncos please?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
No, there isn't a way to do that, except dialing ##72786#, and that should work on any phone.

Also, there is an app called Super Manager on the play store, after installation go to settings>ROOT, then give it SU permissions, then thumb right till you get to the File Manager, and you can paste anything to anywhere
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
I have Root Explorer, which is superior to Super Manager (imho) and I was able to move the files to where they should/need to go to change the bootani and sound, )system/media and system/media/audio/ui), but it doesn't work. I've done it a thousand times on other roms and it worked perfectly (including Shlesh's which is an MK4, 4.3 rom), so there must be something about this rom's file structure that doesn't allow it.

Someone posted a fix a page or 2 back but I didn't get a chance to try it as I tried the AirCommand flash first and it sent me into FCville...

:cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
I know of the app, I tried it when I had a Htc Hero, I know a lot of devs put it in the /data/app directory, because I always used to delete it before it installed on my phone.the problem with restoring your apps with it on this rom is that this is pretty much an MK4 stock rom, and SELinux i guess write protects portions of the data partition, I don't know specifically...but somehow Samdung has made it so the only way to restore apps and data is with Kies 3.0, I didn't do it, Samdung did. If you do a Kies backup and restore of the data partition, it works, I have tried other apps to restore data and the only thing I could find that worked properly is Kies.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] wackydroid:
I've used it for the 2 days I've been on this ROM and it functioned perfectly. It was only after I flashed that icon fix it started FCing, along with almost every other app.

No biggie.... It's Sunday night, the kids are out, so I'm just gonna fire one up and crack a cold Fat Tire, sit back, relax and set up from a clean install again.

:cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cajun9924:
Trust me it works
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
OIC, yeah, I thought you were having problems with initial installation, st first...thats what I get for reading backwards...after reaing up I see whats up and yeah, thats what happens with titanium backup, it works for some people and not others. As far as the air commands, I would only use the ones around 26.5MB, that is the proper size for the framework-res.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MeetFace:
Keep an eye out on the community kernel, I think they are close.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] anahataray:
Second this, GO BRONCOS!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkAngel:
Well flashed this rom to try it out. Have to say it took me two tries to get it going good. First time I was getting FC on several GApps and other apps even after rebooting and re-clearing cache and Dalvick. Anyways switching recoveries worked. Had to use Philz recovery to wipe everything and start from scratch with this. With all flashing done to MK4, I always start over on stock MC2 ( just my thing ). I don't mind starting from scratch and entering everything. That's what backups are for. Funny thing is, I didn't have to flash the wifi fix the second time around or the first.

So far everything is perfect and all works perfect. Have to say good job on this one. Just as the OP states, has everything and everything works for me.... except the ability for some Air Gestures but no biggie and we all know why that is. Have to thank all the Devs and the OP who put this one together.

Rom Update:

Thought I would throw out a teaser for yall. This is going through the last of the testing stages so it will be out fairly soon.

What I have....

THIS IS THE EXACT SAME AS 1.2 ONLY IT HAS AROMA INSTALLER

User has multiple gouped selections.

1. Rom Choice ... Install Rom or Add/Modify current setup

2. Google Apps ... add or remove apps by checking them. If checked it installs if unchecked it removes.

3. Samsung Apps ... add/remove apps

4. Sprint Apps ... add/remove apps

5. Air command Icons ... change your theme

6. Kernel ... well only got stock but hopefully that will change

The only issue I have come across now is a random hang after install in aroma (both in philz and twrp). Might be something in my script but not sure yet.

What I have left ...

1. Setup change logs

2. Setup thanks screen

3. Clean up text and discriptions in aroma

Dropping in to share my 2cents again. Yesterday I had installed xposed mod and wanam xposed module. I also used rom toolbox pro to change into roboto font.So,I made my tweaks and things were running ok. I started getting some random fc's here and there,and also a couple reboots. Now,i am not saying this is a direct correlation to the mods i installed, but my assumption was,yes. I uninstalled xposed, and still was having some issues. i rebooted and still issues- i could be totally imagining this,but i think there was juuust a little bit of jitteriness when opening apps and what not. Also got another random reboot when browsing online (i use stock samsung browser).

This morning i just started from scratch again - philz recovery,wiped/formatted everything,re-flashed and re-installed everything from play store. This time around I am running holo launcher actually (some users seem to think it uses less RAM; i just wanna see what its all about) and I am going to try and not do any other mods at all and see how things go for a couple days. Will report back later. So for so good, after running it for about 9 hours now.

Anybody know if there is a way i can install the new roboto font> (the one with 4.3)?

I'm trying this ROM on to 2 Sprint Note 2's. Both coming from SynergyROM (MC2). I tried clean wipe, but I still do not see the WiFi hotspot feature. I also tried flashing Lorjay's ROM first...dirty flash this ROM and clean flash this ROM...still don't see the hotspot. I see other folks have/had this issue and some have been successful in getting hotspot to show up by doing a clean wipe. I've done clean wipe 3 times and I still do not see the hotspot.

I have MK4 modem. TWRP 2.6.3.1.

I honestly can't tell you how much of a difference Philz recovery can make, but I have been using that recovery (I am not a CWM fan) and things have been working out. So, I suggest you move to Philz recovery, from TWRP.

Also, coming from Synergy MC2 - i presume you have done the flash to stock MC2, flash the 'keep root' file, then update to lorjays's mk4, and now here you are at 4.3?

Hey at least you guys have a QB who can do qb type things like throw the ball more than 5 yards, not staring down a receiver, recognize defenses--u know, the basic things that a qb is supposed to do.

Yes, I am in MN and am a Vikings fan (why I do this to myself, i dont know...).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlpineMan:
Coming from SynergyROM MC2, I clean flashed Lorjay's MK4 and the wifi patch and everything worked.

I then proceeded to this ROM from Lorjay's. Tried clean flash and dirty flash a few times.

** UPDATE **

I installed Philz Recovery. Clean installed, and hotspot is still not showing up.

Update for my testers...

Between yalls feedback and my own testing we have found a few errors in my scripts. I will be updating the script today and sending out a new link. Link will be just the META-INF directory since the only changes are to the script itself.

Questions for current users....

I am looking for options yall want in the release. So far this is what I have.

1. Choice to install rom or modify the roms setup

2. Google apps (add/delete)

3. Samsung apps (add/delete)

4. Sprint apps (add/delete)

5. Kernel (stock/custom) well both are stock but option is there when we get one.

On the apps if you check the app it is installed and if left unchecked it is uninstalled. So if you run as an update make sure you check everything you want to keep or add.

I was on MC2 modem. Then did the wifi patch.

After hotspot still didn't show, cleaned install again, flashed MK4 modem, no WIFI patch needed as wifi was working.

After that still didn't work, I repeated the clean install again, wifi patch, and still no WIFI/USB tether.

I know it's weird. I see other users experienced the same when I searched this thread. I did it on 2 Note 2's and experienced the same issue.

Might be a bad download.... Try re downloading v1.2 and do a clean install (wipe everything but external sd 3x)

"Knowledge is Wisdom"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlpineMan:
Yup... Formatted data 3x each time I did clean install.

I didn't go to stock MC2...since I believe there's no need to do it since I'm doing a clean install. Lorjay's MK4 worked fine... No issues whatsoever. This ROM works fine, too... It's just that the hotspot/tether is missing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evo_like:
In theory you are correct. But I would still recommend you go back to stock mc2 and then make your move to mk4. I had similar experience with twrp recovery, when I did everything the same way and thought there's no need to move to philz, and I kept having some issues here and there and finally told myself eff it,let me follow verbatim what all these other users are recommending, and voilà, all was good.

Also maybe try a redownload on v2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlpineMan:
I'll try downloading again. Although in my first download, my MD5 matched what's in Goo.IM

What happened

Not sure what I did but after flashing this ROM which worked perfectly for three days. I had a power surge while my phone was charging. Phone rebooted very slowly but came back. Everything was working fine until I did a manual reboot. When I did this, I was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 screen. I was able to flash back into recovery so I decided to flash the ROM again. Once again it booted slow but it did reboot into the ROM. The phone became unresponsive after about an hour of usage. Had to pull the battery and sure thing, the phone would not boot. Flashed again but this time my phone never rebooted...long story short, in panic mode now, I used Odin to flash back to stock. Still same result...would not boot! I Knew I had my Sprint Protection plan so I took it up there thinking it was a hardware issue. Within 10 min, Sprint geeks had my phone reset and running again. I want to go back to this ROM again but I don't want what happened to me to happen again. I guess I would like to know from my newly reset 4.3 stock ROM, how should I proceed in flashing this ROM. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] m4f1050:
Oh ok, gotcha. At least the info is out there, to all that use TitaniumBackup, DO NOT restore SYSTEM DATA. And there is also a TB Restore Fix for the Note3 which I assume you can use on this ROM. Unless Titanium Track fixed the issue....

Few Bugs

Let me say first off this is a great rom and nothing out there in MK4 can touch it. That said over the last 3 or 4 days I've had 2 or 3 random reboots and tonight it has gone completely schizophrenic. It's freezing / opening apps on it's own / laggy to the point of being unusable and it just went into a comma. Had to do a battery pull to get it back. Been running 1.2 from a clean install since it was first posted with no problems now I'm trying to figure out what is causing the problem. so far no clue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Saint Michael23:
Not a noob but asking a noob question since it has been so long since I've done anything with Odin. I get the rom loaded fine but on my pc I can't get the wifi to patch to work. Please help with basic instructions for how to do odine wifi patch. Thanks.

Nice Job!!

Kudos to Keith. I have flashed this ROM a couple hours ago and have not had a "random" reboot yet. Really, the only problem I have had that made me go back to MC2 based ROM was the "random" reboots with other MK4 ROMs. Have found one app that won't run but it's just a note app, is not important at all. I have also flashed this volume increaser .. works for me. Here's the link if anyone is interested.

Two ideas.

1. A bad download.

2. Check which recovery you are flashing in and make sure it's compatible with this rom. I've had many issues with it coming down to the recovery causing the problem not the rom.
