As far as anything special, you probably need to do the wifi fix with odin, I pm'd you a dropbox link
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
I am uploading to dropbox and i'll pm u a link later, right now I am heading out the door to north carolina for the weekend, so it probably wont be til later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Natedog1:
I tried wiping and reinstalling but I still get force closes. Strange. Thanks for your help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
I wish there was more I could do, I just don't know much about air commands, its in the framework-res.apk, but if it is doing it when you save/write it stands to reason that its a memory/storage problem. I have mine set to go to edit on screen write, i forget where that setting is and i'm headed out the door for the weekend right now. Ill be on the road for ten hours, but i will dig into it first chance i get
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
Did you happen to flash the theme posted in the the Theme and Apps section? I did and lost the ability to save or send after writing on a screen capture and using the Air Command. Downloading new version of this ROM now. I can do without a theme if it breaks things.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Natedog1:
No I didn't flash the theme either. I thought it may be a permissions issue but that wasn't it either.

Here is version 1.1 is anyone is having issues downloading still. https://www.dropbox.com/s/r0pmer9g6l52dzg/Z New Stock_MK4_w_Note3_v_1.1.zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gamy2121:
I am on version 1.1 and swipe for screenshot is not working for me, option is turned on in settings. anyone else have this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ianmb:
going to flash new update and see what I can find as far as bugs go. Hoping the new update fixes the the Flash Annotate not working on writing and saving a screen shot using Air Command .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] juggamonkey:
It doesn't I flashed 1.1 and it fc when u try to save from action memo or screen write
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] louforgiveno:
+1 ^^^ hope to see this worked out
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
If anyone is having issues with air commands, there is an undo available on the second or third page to completely eliminate the air commands, unfortunately the only way to troubleshoot is to duplicate the problem and see what is causing it, and I haven't been able to duplicate it.

Another thing is, SecLauncher.apk might still be in /system/app if you didn't do a 'full wipe to install rom' in recovery. That was the issue I was having before. SecLauncher4.apk is what should be in use. I'm traveling cross country today or I would be more help, sorry

Random reboot

Has anyone had a random reboot on v1.0? I just had one looked over at my phone and it was rebooting. Does the 1.1 version fix this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] usarmyaircav:
I was in the middle of saying that I don't think I have had a reboot, when my phone rebooted. Also my home button doesn't always respond on the first click. Gonna install the 1.1 over the top and see how it goes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
This was meant for the next post

Dial ##72786#

The phone will reboot and reactivate, updating your data profile.

Let me know
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Dial ##72786#

The phone will reboot and reactivate, updating your data profile.

Let me know
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostcausenjtown:
I have the same problem as the other poster but ##72786# does nothing. It goes to the SCRTN screen but that screen is blank. It will kill the bars but nothing else.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mediocrates:
I was wondering if I was the only one that had the same problem as above, I even get the internal error 1500 if I try to manually activate it. So I went back to MC2 using Billards solution, and then upgraded to 1.2 until there's a fix. I'm good until then, though....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Can someone please reiterate this please? Are you saying this occurs since this latest install, but if you revert to Smooth v1.2, its fine? I'm looking into it right now, but I kinda need as much info as possible, like when it started, and what it's doing. I had a similar experience where my phone would try to activate every time I rebooted, but that was from testing kernels i thought. I'm sure its nothing serious with this rom, but if it's occurring after the installation of the current release, I would ask someone to run the install and on the last page of Aroma there is a point where you can save the install log; if someone could run the install just like they did then on the last page, select the save the install log to sdcard, then pm the log to me that would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime, I will try to do it myself and see whats up. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
You need to attach a credit card and setup tap and pay to see where it fails. The screen shot doesn't show tap and pay on the top.. The app works fine only tap and pay ( nfc payment) is the only portion that is broken.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Or send it to me. I dont have 4g since my device is flashed to cricket.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
Blew out my NFC services again. Was so bad that it didn't let me to the home page. Had to wipe rom and reinstall. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] amazin1988:
Man I loved this rom so much I left sprint and went to Tmobile just to have the note 3.

iTzXAmAzED On Note3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Sorry about that. the only nfc driver I could find was the one from 4.4 looking for nfcexynos4.so, because that is the one it calls for from what I've been able to find, Samdung in their infinite wisdom put nfcmdk4x12.so as the stock driver (the file in that patch contains both, just in case; it should call on the right one). I'm afraid this feature might take a couple days to fix, but I am working on it. It really makes it difficult since I have no idea how to even start nfc payments/tap to pay.

Right now though, I am working to solve another problem entirely. But I will get back to this just as soon as I can, thanks for your patience. btw, does it work on MK4 stock?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
It does work on MK4 stock. No worries . All your help is much appreciated. Side note, after I reinstalled the rom 1.2 newest version, I no longer have mobile hot spot. I don't think it was an option on the installer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Thanks for your patience, and for letting me know about the issues, that is the problem we are working to fix that put the NFC issue on the back burner.

I updated the OP with a link to the previous 1.2 release while we get this problem worked out, it shouldn't be long
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mmarks9156:
Left phone on charger overnight and when I went to wake it for SOD anyone else I'm on 1.2?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
I'm sorry, what do you mean by SOD?

We found the problem with the Aroma installer, and we are working on a fix; in the meantime, I would re-install the previous version of 1.2, while we work this out, sorry for any inconvenience
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolwater22:
I had a screen of death but it wasn't because I left it charging over night. I was using an app and my screen froze, then I pressed the power button to see if I can turn off and turn the screen off to fix the problem but it wouldn't turn on. I just pulled the battery..im also on 1.2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mmarks9156:
SOD= screen of death where screen goes black and can't turn on by pressing any keys usually requires battery pull
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smidgers:
I've been on this ROM about 36 hours now. I also had SOD last evening. Pulled battery and its been fine since (including overnight charge). Hopefully just a fluke occurrence because this ROM rocks otherwise.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
SOD, gotcha, and when you say version 1.2, was that with the aroma installer, or the one previous?

incidentally, I installed this rom onto my girlfriend's phone right on top of Stock MC2, (I dirty flashed it because she would not let me lose her data)

Everything worked perfectly for a day or two, then she started getting real bad freezes and SOD's, then random reboots. So I told her I would have to erase her data and re-install the rom, which I did and everything ran smooth as butter. So I then restored her data using Kies, and wouldn't you know it, freezes again, so I looked at her text messages and she had well over a thousand. I deleted all the older ones, and she hasn't had a problem since.

My point is this, when the system does a complete install, it uses all but about 300 mb, give or take, of the system partition, and doesn't leave much room to breathe, which is why we started the Aroma installer, so we could shrink the system consumption. There was a small problem in the script, that is being fixed at the moment, but it will be back up soon.

In the meantime, what I do is use a root explorer, Super Manager to go in and delete the system apks that I don't need or use.

That isn't a plug for Super Manager, it just uses its root functions better than ES, and I couldn't find Root Explorer when I needed it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mmarks9156:
1.2 w/o aroma installer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostcausenjtown:
For me it is v1.2/aroma. Boots up with no 3g/4g at all. If you select 3g only it will have a network connection.

When trying the ##72786 # to update profile it will go to the STCRN screen but will and will be blank and will not reboot automatically like it is supposed to. Did research and found that I was missing two apps.

I installed SprintDM(at first was the only one. It tried to update but wouldn't) and Sprintmlvsc(spelling?))this app caused handsfree activation to come up on first boot everytime I reboot) and it attempted to update those two. Tried five times to update profile but failed.

I then selected 3g only and phone rebooted and updated the prl upon boot and then rebooted again. Upon boot this time I only have 3G now.

I next selected LTE/CDMA/EVDO and phone once again rebooted. Upon reboot this time I now show to have a 4g data connection. It has been going for the past hour. I have no idea how or why this worked. I just happened upon it. I report that I do have a working 4g connection now. I am in the DFW area if that matters.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Thank you for this information, we have located the problem and are currently fixing the problem and the links should be back up in a few. I would recommend running the MC2 back to stock unrooted installation, as that fixes things even Samsung and Sprint can't fix, its pretty awesome.

There was just a minor bug in the script that is being fixed now, and the links will be back up in no time
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] GuitarJesus:
^^^^^^^^

Ditto. Only the Aroma install ROM did this. Not the previous 1.2. Called Sprint, they tried to fix, wouldn't work, and then downgraded to MC2 Stock Counter Reset rom and all is good, flashed Synergy R3 for now. Hope this is a quick fix.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mshnayde:
Hopefully soon!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
Not sure if aroma 1.2 killed wifi hotspot because it's missing from the original 1.2 without aroma.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostcausenjtown:
Will also add that the current 1.2 w aroma always hung after install. Would go to click next and nothing happened. Was using philz recovery and coming from stock mc2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
that was a problem while testing and happens 3 out of 5 times for me. i noticed that it didnt lock up when i only modified the ROM. just an fyi and the devs know about it :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 4lph4num3r1c:
When i installed from the aroma download i had no internet/browser app. Unless it was hidden somewhere?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cuezaireekaa:
i just noticed you are correct sir. :confused: on a fresh flash and i did notice secbrowser was gone. a few of us (tester/devs) might have over looked that and im sure its a simple script error jlmancuso will fix with the other team members and have this patched up with their other fixes. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Working on the script issues now. Sorry past couple of days I have been a bit busy. Should have it knocked out shortly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
Tried 3 times reinstalling the rom, no luck on getting 3g 4g back. Restored to 4.1.2 and all good. Waiying on update. ;)

---------- Post added at 11:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------

Update** 3g and 4g working fine but every time I reboot the phone it goes into self activation and fails. I only restored back to a twrp backup have not tried going back to stock unroot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Run the MC2 Back to Stock Unrooted, it fixes everything. Apparently, there was a problem with the Aroma Installer that caused it to format the carrier partition, which will cause it to do that. I had the same problem a few days ago and didn't know what caused it, so I did the same thing. Then I installed the Version 1.2 previous to the Aroma and all is well. The guy that wrote the script for the Aroma installer is aware of the problem and he is fixing it now

You should be able to flash this, the attached carrier restore.zip...I flashed it and it worked, it is the same carrier.img found in the mc2 back to stock update, or the same principal anyway
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Uploading 1.2.1 to goo.im

Will link once it is done.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
Has anyone been successful in restoring a 4.3 backup in twrp? Restore seems successful but phone doesnt boot. Stays on samsung logo after boot animation.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
To backup up 4.3 you must use philz recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 4lph4num3r1c:
THANK YOU! I were pulling me hair out trying to figure out why none of me backups would let the profile update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
I'm not sure, but I think I remember seeing other people having the same issue, did you try using Philz to restore from TWRP? I don't know that it will make a difference, but it might.

Were you able to get your carrier partition restored?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 4lph4num3r1c:
The fix you just posted fixed the problem and I can now use the phone again. Phone started up, at activated, and rebooted. Now all is good. THANKS again. :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
Yes. Your fix worked like a charm. Waiting impatiently for 1.21. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
If you use philz to restore your twrp backup of 4.3 you will end up with the data issue like aosp 4.4 has on install with twrp. No baseband, phone number, etc...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Glad I could help

That's what I thought, it will restore it, but with issues...though I didn't know what the issues were. Philz is pretty awesome as far as its capabilities, but MC2 Stock with Counter reset was written for TWRP, and I don't know if it will work on Philz. They each have there Pros and Cons

Now, where is that update?! as keith twiddles his thumbs with anticipation while thinks of things to post to pass the time...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:

Remember this will wipe your data partition during install of Smoothest (modify option only clears cache and Dalvik Cache).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Will you check out the OP and make sure it read correctly please?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Only one little nit pick thing. In the change log you have merged the 1-9 log with 1-12 log. Everything else looks good.

I was going to save the trasparent addons and extra toggels for 1.3 but figured since I was in there I would just do it and give it more than just a script tweak.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrwright83:
Is the wifi hot spot fixed in this update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
I don't think the problem was as much the rom as it was the script, so I am sure it is fixed; if not, please let us know as soon as you can.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrwright83:
Bout to flash now and will let you know
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
No still does not have hotspot. Digging into that issue still. Got company over for few more days so time is short.

EDIT:

Wifi hotspot is in the newest version. I just reflashed it myself from a download and noticed I have it. I usally do two installs. One with all options selected and one with no options selected. This gives me good logs of both types. Right now I have all options selected and it is showing in my menu options.

So only thing left is tap and pay. Which should also be working but not confirmed. I switched back to a secure stock kernel as Keithgordon suggested and make some changes in the scripts and build.prop to hopefully get things ironed out.

Again I am sorry for the first release ;-( I have several testers along with the dev team and we all missed what was going on. Thankfully we have fixes in the op to bring everyone back to where they need to be. Thank you everyone for your time and support.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 4lph4num3r1c:
Just flashed the latest. Still no 3g/4G over CDMA/LE A setting.

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 PM ----------
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Please let me know how it worked

I just looked at the script after reading this post, and there doesn't appear to be anything that would mess that up, did you flash the carrier fix tat I posted earlier?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] 4lph4num3r1c:
Yes. Then I wiped everything and flashed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrwright83:
do anybody have a mirror this thing is going slow
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Would you try reflashing the fix from earlier and see it that helps?

on android file host on the bottom right of the screen you should see a list of mirrors. try a few of those I am uploading to my dropbox just in case those dont work out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrwright83:
yeah can you drop me a db link cause it seems like i have better luck with db than anyother site
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
20-30 mins for the upload so around 5:20 CST I will have a link for you via pm.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
Then you might try flashing this one, or dialing ##72786#

and please keep us posted,

sometimes it can take a while to resume data, because it is trying to overwrite a data profile, that's what dialing the scrtn does, it erases the data profile and makes it easier to write the data profile to your phone
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Hey I also have something else in beta for users of Smoothest 1.2.1 users. Hit me up via pm if you want to test out the merged theme I have been working on. I have some things left to finish but thought yall would like to check this out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
Now that I acutally got this to download after several tries. It will get flashed on my phone tonight :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrwright83:
I must say it gets better and better guys, but 1 quick question is do anybody have the full screen browser and the weather widget from last build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
The browser is the same. I will get you a weather widget link tomorrow if no else does it first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
Well installed and no go.. I used the latest twrp and it says no os installed... Back to MC2 I downloaded the one from the OP hope it was the right one, as it was the only one I say a link to..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
No 3g or 4g data. Tried everything. The patch from garwinn doesnt do anything. I tried ##72786# and it kills phone as well. Anyone else having this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
If all else fails, MC2 Stock Unrooted with Counter reset works.

go to your phone and dial ##3282# and then View, and see what it says for data profile
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
You might try Philz, it was the only one we could get to work on the original rom too

with all the troubles everyone is having, i am forced to try the installation as well, can you tell me which of the Sprint apps you chose to install, and was it a complete rom install, or modify existing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostcausenjtown:
I forgot to add from my previous post. You have to add SprintDM and Syncmlsvc to get it to update profile. I had to select 3g only and it rebooted and updated prl. Then select CDMA/LTE and it will reboot and 4g should be working then. My 4g has been working ever since I posted about this yesterday.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
Ok will give that a try..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mmarks9156:
Can I get a db link as well?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
jindelic, did you see this post? this is why I asked which Sprint apps you installed; YOU MUST INSTALL these sprint apps, I would recommend installing the apps found in this attached zip, just to be sure

Thanks, that is why I asked which Sprint apps were selected, because some of them are necessary, I will let jlmancuso know that these are necessary and not bloat; he doesn't know because he is on a different carrier. It should be as simple as deleting a couple lines of code
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
[MENTION=2402498]Keithgordon[/MENTION] yeah for me they are all bloat. Removing any option is super easy so just let me know exactly which ones they are.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lostcausenjtown:
No problem. I thought I added it yesterday but did so now just incase. I will also add that you CANNOT edit information via epst codes. It will not take for some reason. It accepts the MSL code and you can view information you just cannot edit it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
SprintAndroidExtension

SprintDM

SprintSyncMLSvc

I'm sure those will be automatically included on version 1.3, those are necessary Sprint apks, I accidentally put Sprint Installer in that zip, and that is bloat i'm pretty sure
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
What radio version are you on?

I am testing out prl write for ##data# and everything is working fine. Although to get the prl to write you have to match the radio to the fix you flash.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubledragon5:
Ok got it installed. First were is the developers option. next why does it say in the lower left of my phone safe mode...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jindelic:
When I install the rom, under sprint I select EVERYTHING. When selecting sprint apps, only sprintDM is there. I manually installed sprintsyncmlsvc, sprint installer, and sprintandfroidextensions. This worked, but sae force closes.

Thanks for getting this going!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mediocrates:
Go into settings menu, and click on the 4th tab, scroll down, and look for Build Number. Click on that option 7 or 8 times, it will tell you when you've pressed it enough to unlock developer option. When you back out of it, scroll down in the 4th tab, and now developer option will be there for you.

Safe mode? Never seen that one....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] philseven:
I tried that yesterday and couldn't make any phone calls or receive phone calls didn't work for me had to MC2
