If smartclip is that important to you, try Synergy. It works with that ROM.

I guess compared to stock. I'm new to the note. Would a modem flash help. Love all the features and look of this rom. I also just flashed this today. I should probably give it time to settle a bit.

were you able to unroot, update to 4.3 and then root and flash this no issues?

im having tons of FC and random REBOOTS.

Most have issues,some do not. You might want to try classic rom it is perfect.

should i unroot and update the phone to 4.3 and then root and go from there?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
I would. When I had my note 2. Doing that worked no FC at all

I wouldn't write off this rom just yet.... now, once the Note 4 has been released, I have a feeling this thread will be a ghost town, lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
It's a ghost town now ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
What is the big rush for the Note 4? The Note 3 is a big step up from the 2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mediocrates:
No big rush, just that a lot of our contracts are due for an upgrade soon, and the Note 4 will be released a couple of months after that. I figure people that didn't jump on the Note 3 for contract reasons, will now have a reason to upgrade, and the Note 4 is looking to be a very nice upgrade, if the rumors hold true, especially the camera, and 2k or higher screen res.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chaz187:
And us as Developers have lives and when something is running good we have a chance to take a break..... just like me and my rom I have moved onto themes for a bit..... as 4.4.2 is around the corner

Thanks,

Chaz187

From my Smoked Waffle n2!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
You for sure need a break. You have done an amazing job with your rom... Because of serious network issues that plagued the Note 2. BB gave me a upgrade to the Note 3.. So far I have no plans on rooting, at least for the time being.. If you do come over to that phone, which will be cheaper by the time the Note 4 comes out LOL.. I will flash your rom for my phone..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chaz187:
Thanks sir I will be getting the new when it comes out as I upgrade every 2 years on contract. ... i don't like to jump ship on every phone that comes out....

From my Smoked Waffle n2!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mediocrates:
This is the first time I have ever passed on the early upgrade. I'm actually going to complete the contract for once. I've always upgraded every 12 months. The Note 2 has been so good, what with the Lab Rats rom, and then this one for the past 4 and a half months, that I haven't wanted to upgrade anyway. But the hardware that's rumored to be in the Note 4 is too good to pass up, if true.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
I hear it's going to be the same size with a 2k screen. Camera will probably be a d*ck measuring contest. I have a Note 3 now and an upgrade in November, will probably skip on the Note 4. Phones are at the plateau.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well I been away for a bit and thought I would pick this project back up. I know smartclip and pagebuddy were issues and now have those fixed. Thinking about putting in the S5 launcher and a few other mods. I will also do a bloat free with flashable bloat zip.

And yes I will be removing all the aosp I had in the last tester. Oh and yes it will still have the note 3 features.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
Diggin this ROM. I initially flashed because I needed to use PRL feature. However I had no idea its just like a Note 3 with more features. Feel relieved now.

I had question about backing up. I'm on Philz 6.07.9. I tried doing a custom backup minus the EFS (done separate) and when I try to restore it, it just hangs at md5 check prompt or says "no files found", or "nothing to restore". I also can no longer restore my old Nandroid which was just a basic rooted stock backup with a few added rooted apk's.

Also when I'm backing up the file is HUGE, (7188MB).At first my older backups were only around 2-3k MB. I ended up finding a bunch of files in LOST folder on sd1 and deleting them which helped clear memory on card at 1 point but now their back to being large and I dont know why. I also tried checking off the compress option but didnt help.

I was wondering is there a particular way to do a backup?

Any help appreciated
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I would sugguest that when you do a backup dont backup /data/media (internal sdcard) and make sure when you back up you do it on your external sdcard. If you are backing up your internal sdcard everytime and saving the backups to you internal than the backups will become huge because you are backing up your other nands at the same time.

Now about the md5sums I usally turn that option off on restores. Sometimes they dont match but everything comes out fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
That makes sense it seemed to get bigger everytime I tried saving it. I'm going to try it that way.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] pvgas:
Looking forward to the update. I've been running this ROM since it was released. Occasional hangups and wifi breaks but not too often.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
I have the "Downloading Do Not Turn Off Target" screen. I'm not sure what happened. Any advice?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
You booted into download mode which is used with a program called odin to flash your phone. Just pull your battery and power back up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
I ended up losing my recovery and having to re flash twrp 2.7 then back to Philz. All of this started when I tried to restore a "custom" Nandroid after I got to the screen I attached below and I didnt know which 1 to pick, clicked "boot" and it was all down hill. I also tried doing a regular restore instead of custom and no go.that was my first time trybutto restore a CUSTOM. I also tried on twrp 2.7 for the short time I had it and it just started started the rom from brand new. I also tried donating as well.that didnt work either.(PayPal error message) not my lucky day but I'm gonna keep at it and hopefully figure this out. Looking forward to your next version
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
The people have spoken..... RELEASE THE UPDATE!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 414isaiah:
Thanks for keeping this rom going jlmancuso, definitely grateful for your work, I always end up back on this ROM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] na_tra:
+1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
So quick question. Being this is a stock (non themed) rom would yall rather have some transparent apks and widgets or all stock?

Also I noticed while working in the update that my s-voice does not work. I dont use this feature so does anyone know if it worked in the last release?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Definitely all stock.

Never tried it... Didn't know people actually used it lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well if s-voice is broken in the last release then i would guess no one uses it. I do not remember any posts about it being broken. I have moved a massive amount if apps to the /data/app folder (450+ MB so far). Looks like there will not be much of a bloat zip since most apps moved without a problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Good stuff! GF has been bugging me about the reboots
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Question about your reboot issue. Did take the 4.3 ota or kies update? Did you format your internal sdcard and reboot recovery before installing rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Didn't take the 4.3 ota.

I did wipe and then reboot recovery though.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Once the next release is done i would suggest going back to stock mc2 taking the update then installing the rom. I have worked closely with several different devs and users and for some that makes all the difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Ok, will do.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ----------

Will smart clip work on the next update?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Yes smart clip has been fixed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ptmuldoon:
I have been running this Rom for quite a while now and have been loving it. But on a reboot this morning, all of the APPS on phone are gone, including the market.

Am I forced to do a complete fresh install of the Rom? I think I have a Twrp backup from February. But don't want to lose the little bit that was kept on the phone.

I think just reinstalling without Aroma will hopefully get going again? Then revisit the market to get all my apps? Pretty sure the external SD storage is fine, but looks like my internal SD was wiped!

I think the internal stuff is still there. My PC doesn't show anything, but in the Phone's storage it tells me of the 16GB internal, there is 7.84 available.

And in the application manager, all the apps show with the little green android robot with a com.xxx name.

So still unsure what is going on. Buy maybe a fresh install without Aroma and wipe cache will fix it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Can't wait for the update. Going to convert to framily plan.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well looks like the update will be different from others in the past. I was contacted by another and a new twist has happened. This will be a two part release! As things come together I will slowly leak out details.

So here is the first bit of details. This will be a note 2, note 3, S5 combo release. It will be a stockish looking rom with almost all bloat moved to the data partition so users can remove what they want.

Keep an eye out for screenshots in the next few days. I am modifying the framework and systemui over the next few days. Bringing in more S5 style.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Nooooo, it means a delay in release ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well it is a two part release and my crystal ball says you will want part one which will release first. So you wont have to wait. ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Good stuff buddy.... Can't wait!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
Do you have a Sprint Note 2? I downloaded that zip you mentioned but don't wasnt sure what the next step was. Did you have to change permissions and if so where do you find the folder to do it. I havent used root explorer for year. I been going nuts using toolbox and flashing stuff to get this to work. any help appreciated!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
So here are the plans.

Release one -- Smoothest Note 2/3 1.4-tester

reverted phone, mms, launcher to Note 2

fixed -- S-voice, smart clip

reverted back to pure stock (widgets, apks, and air command)

few tweaks added

moved over 600 MB of apks to /data/app (user can uninstall)

sony walkman software

LG G2 Keyboard (with themes, handwriting, one had keyboard, 5th row numbers, imoji)

plus few other extras

This release should be ready hopefully in the next few days - a week

Release two -- Smoothest Note 2/3 S5 1.4-tester

All same fixes and adds as release one

Has S5 launcher, weather, and transparent flashbar (multi-window bar)

transparent apks and widgets (will list later)

Working on custom framework, systemui, and settings to look more like S5

More to come...

This release will take a bit longer due to all the custom work but I will put out a little teaser from time to time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] na_tra:
Thank you for your hard work so that we can all enjoy our beloved note 2 (even though Sprint data connect is suck in my area). I am thinking more about learning to do this thing myself. Do you have any advice for me. Baby steps first.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Thank you looking forward to trying it out
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 414isaiah:
Can't wait to try this out!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] D_Smuv_:
Yea he got me hype over here lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cozboogie:
As they say there is no such thing as a stupid question...but will our S-Pens still work with the Release 2 option if you're going to base it off of the S5? Or will there be limited use, etc?

Thanks,

Coz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
To clear this up both roms are note 4.3 based roms with note 3 features. The S5 version is not based off the S5 (which is 4.4 not 4.3). It will have the S5 launcher and weather widget which has been modified to run on 4.3. Then the rom will be themed to look like stockish S5 rom with note 3 features (lol!)

Now here is a link to smothest 1.4 N2-N3 tester. Will post a full change log later the preview stats listed the major things.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chaz187:
Are the apps updated....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
The link posted is just a tester for base features and i need to get all the apps updated. I am posting early teasers of the S5 style rom very little has been done in the theme part but figured i would tease.

1. Shows S5 style toggles..Sfinder..Spen

2. S5 launcher theme manager

3. S5 style recents menu

4. S5 app drawer

Optical reader...will convert pictures to text

PullUp 1...works like N3's magazine home..swipe from bottom of screen but you can select app

PullUp 2...swipe past last left homescreen and opens another selected app...also can tap on the tiny = on the screen position indicator

SBaro... Samsung Barometer and elveation app

STranslator...Samsung translation app

VIP Mode...Samsungs call/sms blocker app

5. S5 Weather widget with transparency adjustments

Transparent multi window bar

Transparent music widget

N3 Air command

Very little theme stuff has been done but am thinking about a blue/black glass S5 Theme. What do yall think?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] elwood:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:

Forgive my ignorance but is the tester a functioning Rom just without your updated and themed apps? Can I flash it and then report any issues?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
[MENTION=4011301]jlmancuso[/MENTION] what do you mean by apps need to be updated?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Once you boot and setup your phone many of the apps will want to update both google and samsung apps. Not a major deal but kind of annoying when you download a new rom. The release version will have all apps updated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
Oh ok ?.... Yea I can take care of that lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Yes that is part of why this became a two part release. Some like the stockish look (1.4-N2-N3) while others like a more customized look (1.4-N2-N3-S5). While you are using 1.4-N2-N3-tester note things you like/dont like and things you might want done. I will see what I can do to make it what most stockish users like.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ubigred:
I sure will. My gf and brother both have the Note 2. I will update both and take notes

Is there a way on the new 1.4 tester to get rid of the transparent status bar?

Edit: never mind. It's gone with nova.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I see you found your answer. The status bar is part of the launcher.

There is only one 1.4 file online so everyone is using the same one. The samsung gallery is i /data/app so there is a chance you deleted it accidentally.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] elwood:
Here is the newest 1.4 tester version that I went and put the s5 launcher and s5 weather. Along with installing a few themes. I am digging the Iron Man one.

Wanam xposed = endless options and abilities
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Download exposed framework and gravity box. They will be included in the release of 1.4. While some exposed modules will cause issues this one will not unless you try using the power menu modification options (bootloops). Also the is an option to increase number of volume steps that does not work correctly. It will gove you like 30 steps but 1-15 is normal and 16-27 start over on volume then 28-30 are silent. Those are the only issues that gravitybox will cause.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkAngel:
Make sure you are using one module to theme one section being the Status bar, Notification Bar at a time ( helps for de-bugging as well ). Sometimes you can use two modules to theme one section but some may conflict with each other.

No problems answering these questions but they may be best answered in the Xposed Modules threads. One last things, these are what I am using with no issues at the moment.

( using only the checked off ones of course )
