Awesome to see an update in progress, ty for your work on this bad ass ROM. One request though can you please get rid of that bright as all hell boot animation and make it dark themed? :) that thing is hell on my eyes at night.

Anyone running a different kernel? Any benefits over what is baked into this awesome rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ed270:
I usually flash different kernels but I am using the baked in one and have no issues and great battery life. So my feeling is "If it ain't broke don't fix it"

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] firewater88:
Thanks, I usually do too. I have been having some battery issues, just seems like it is draining faster than it should/used to. Been on a few other 4.3 roms and the battery drain don't seem as bad, but I still come back to this one for all the features built in. Nothing really stands out under Battery stats or even wake lock detector. Could just be placebo effect cause I am always using the device.... or maybe its time to re-flash clean since I install a lot of things on the device...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] georgepink:
I recently bought a new battery (oem) and while my old battery showed no physical signs of problems, my battery life has almost doubled with a new one. Just an FYI, ymmv.

Ps. I've had the one battery since I initially bought the phone and only recently started having faster drainage issues. I am guilty, though, of never draining my battery completely. No matter what my charge is, it goes on the charger when I sleep. IMO $8-10 for a replacement isn't bad. (eBay)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] firewater88:
I am the same as you, on charger every night no matter what the charge as well as bump charging at work to get through the day and charging when docked in car. I've had mine since day 1 of release, so maybe I should get another battery...

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] D1l777:
I've been trying to flash this all morning and can't get it to go. I'm coming from stock 4.1 rooted to this using the newest CWM. I've odined the firmware from beans. I wiped internal storage also. When I go through the installer and it reboots it gets stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy Note 2" screen and never moves. If I go back to recovery first and select reboot it says root is missing, do I want to install root? If I choose yes or no it still gets stuck. Has anyone seen this problem? It does the same thing on bean's ota too. The only one I can get to work is Sophisticated, which I'm on now. Am I missing something in the process? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] anaya1213:
Flash using philz recovery, I had that same problem too, but I was using TWRP

flashed using philz and everything is working, also don't forget to flash the gps fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] D1l777:
I was trying to stay at from philz because of the internal storage moving on 4.3 and I saw people having problems getting to some files because of it. I'll give it a try now anyway since I've already flashed a 4.3 ROM and my storage has been changed.

Can someone tell me if there is a way to check for bootloader being unlocked easy on this phone? I rooted using casual or whatever on 4.1 so I assume it's unlocked. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Yup.

So, a sum of what happened. Flashed the MJ9 and PIT files through odin 3.07, booted to TWRP, factory reset, flashed N3bula, booted, it stuck on the Verizon screen for about 35 minutes, so I rebooted again, flashed the ROM again, it stuck at the Verizon screen again for 25-30 minutes, I rebooted to recovery, flashed my most recent backup of Liquid, booted to the ROM fine except, again, i had no baseband, couldn't connect to the mobile network, rebooted again, flashed the stock deodexed rooted rom, it got stuck in a boot loop, went back again to recovery, factory reset, flashed the stock rom, booted, then flashed my Liquid backup again and now I'm where I was before trying this whole ordeal out.

I'm sad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] *Madmoose*:
Have you checked the md5 on the file your downloading? Makes me wonder if the file is good. I can't see anything else that would be stopping the install. Just makes no sense.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] D1l777:
I just switched to Philz Touch Recovery and I'm still getting stuck on the first Samsung Galaxy Note 2 screen, doesn't make it to the boot animation. It also keeps saying root is missing after flashing this ROM or Bean's OTA ROM. Sophisticated is the only one I can get to work right now. I checked MD5 sums on all the files and they are fine. I guess I can try downloading them again and see. Anyone have any other ideas?

---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

Checked the MD5 again and it didn't match. I was sure I checked that one after I downloaded it the first time but I guess I didn't in the middle of downloading the 4 other ROM files I was downloading. XDA is sooooo slow, but after I download it and the MD5s hopefully match I will try flashing it again. Thanks for the help guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] drahpatel02:
It is stated in op to use twrp . I followed that and made it. Also, if you stuck at logo, do the battery pull. Hoping good for you..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
My MD5 matches what the downloads page lists...

I can try all this again today, but i'm growing increasingly worried that doing something in this process might permanently mess something up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] *Madmoose*:
My exact method of doing this was:

1) Install this file through ODIN (in PDA box). No pit file or anything.

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319198557

2) Pulled battery and rebooted into recovery (Newest TWRP v. 2.6.3.1 updated through Goomanager in the playstore). Wiped Dalvik, Cache, System, Data, and Internal Storage.

3) Flashed N3bula file, which Wiped dalvik etc again during aroma install.

http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=2738

4) Booted phone and ran through initial setup.

5) Rebooted into recovery and flashed this file.

http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=2759

Phone was solid. Only thing i can think of here is the version of recovery that could be causing you problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] D1l777:
I finally got this flashed and working. Bad download was all it was. Thanks everyone!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
Thank you very much sir. I am sitting at the Verizon screen now at step 4 here and will let you know how it progresses. I have hope!

Edit:

Here we are again, sitting at the Verizon logo, blue light pulsing, 26 minutes later...

Edit2:

Turns out I was on TWRP 2.6.3.0. Upgraded to .3.1 aaaaand i'm in.

As soon as I got to the language selection, the first thing to start setting up, it said Contacts has crashed.

Groovy. Thanks for all the help, you guys rock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] johnp357:
next release

the anticipation is maddening... I may have to crack flash something else just to get my fix in while I wait!! sigh..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flametai1:
I used Philz recovery and have never had this issue once. Try checking the md5 of the file then re flash using Philz recovery...

On another note I am getting very anxious for build 2...... So many goodies... Such a long wait... haha.

Waiting for build 2 though, once that comes out I will be more than likely donating to these devs, they have obviously put a lot of effort in to this ROM and I am very grateful for it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] *Madmoose*:
Better make sure you wiped all the things you were supposed to before flashing. That would be a strong reason for the crash. I received no app crashes at all. Restoring anything from backup will likely cause this as well.

I figured problems were occurring from the recovery versions. 2.6.3.1 has been rock stable with anything I'm flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] falkon114:
I've been flashing so many things that I don't even bother to restore apps/data once I flash something. I just start over. I keep all the stuff I care about on my SD card and everything else I just do over again.

4.3 TW is much different than AOSP 4.3! Be fun to poke around and see what I can see.

Cheers guys!

<<<<<<<<<Im not saying this in a rude way at all SO PLEASE dont take it that way. But if you want to discuss your flashing methods, recovery options, kernel options etc... PLEASE MAKE A DISCUSSION THREAD>>>>>>>>>>>

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
Were we given a current ETA for this update??

I know we need to tread lightly, as asking about delivery dates is a big no-no, but I'm also aware the devs have been dropping hints from time to time . . . :)

I've got a number of issues that make the phone at present a pain in the a**, but since I'm highly confident the next build will easily be the best thing out there, I'm holding out . . .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
We are working on everything.. Im not to sure about when it will be released..Deck got a full time job now..YAY!! I started school full time and work full time.. Krowley works full time and is a new Dad..CONGRATS!! So yes we are working on everything.. I tried to complete as much as I could this week.. And Deck will be working on the rom this weekend so we let you guys know..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flametai1:
Take your guy's time ;D the more features and the less bugs only makes it that much better! Haha!

Congrats indeed to Deck and definitely congrats to Krowley! I raised a kid for awhile, it was quite an adventure haha!

Development related: I saw this ROM has per app settings, I checked it out and was curious... With per app settings is it possible to also have it change your model for that app only kind of like how it can change dpi and resolution for that app only? If not, is there a way to implement it?

And I believe I saw something about halo 2.0 being added in, is this correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] athack:
Replying to Skilover*****I'm curious to know what bugs you're experiencing with this rom that makes your phone a pain in the a..? This rom for the most part and for a majority of the people in here as been pretty much rock solid...???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
Not sure what you mean by "model".. Try to explain it differently...please
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thumprxl:
I'd have to agree with you athack my n2 has been running this Rom as my DD and other than the beginning before this GPS fix, I've had no other problems! The devs have been awesome at listening and supporting us since the release. Guys need to remember this is a hobby for them, not paid employees for Samsung. Congrats to you Deck on landing a new job, L18...much appreciation to you. You are always in here with us. And Krowley, congrats on the new addition to your family. Thanks again for all of your hard work!!! I'm eagerly awaiting the new build like the rest of the guys but I understand and will wait patiently. I give much respect that you guys want to put out a quality product and any update would be a heck of a lot quicker than our carriers put out.

Thanks again guys!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flametai1:
I apologize for being so vague, I should have explained more. The phones model number as in the build.prop , such as SCH-I605. I have mine set to an xperia right now because a game requires it, but if I could leave it set to normal and just use a per app setting to change it when the app is launched... If you see what I mean. I am attaching a picture to show exactly what I mean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lacoursiere18:
No it wont do that.. I dont know if that is possible without a reboot.. anyways.. that is not possible but cool idea..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flametai1:
I would assume this is due to it modifying the build.prop? I am curious why it cannot be done but changing the dpi on the go can?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] formerflyboy:
I would but Greenify doesn't show up anywhere in my apps drawer and it only gives me the update option in the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pmsrefugee:
Use root explorer to remove it from root under system/apps or you might also be able to uninstall it using titanium
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jpierce:
That was the 1st thing I tried, it's not listed under system apps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] athlet1c:
I used Taitanium Backup to remove ... robot and reinstall then activated the module works well now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] formerflyboy:
Great! I can install Greenify through the Playstore but I noticed that there is a Greenify module in Xposed which brings me to two questions.

First, Xposed will start up and appear in the notifications bar at seemingly random times but I can't seem to find a way to start it manually. Every search tells me to "start the app" but I'm assuming since it was baked into the ROM there is another way to do it that I can't seem to find.

The second question is about Greenify. What is the difference between the module in Xposed and the actual app?

Thanks.

Loving the ROM. Took me literally no more than 10 minutes to wipe, flash, and start using it.

Okay, I installed the MJ9 Firmware zip, then Installed this ROM and now I can't get WiFi on at all, and I'm stuck at the setup "wifi" it won't skip wifi at all. Wifi Worked on 4.1 but now on 4.3 this rom it won't work. Can anyone shed light on why?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pgzerwer:
How did you "install" the MJ9?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] maxjivi05:
Zip now I'm trying to use heimdall via Ubuntu to attempt to flash it uh hh no fun

--

Flashed using sch-i605.pit and the img's and bin's from the MJ9 firmware now attempting to flash the rom again. I know when the rom I had flashed booted it wouldn't even connect to LTE so I don't know... reflashing.

Fixed :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Breezer23:
So must recent update was 1/17/2014 but the file timestamp is still in December? I love the ROM. .. Just curious
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skilover:
My bugs are all related to the Contacts issues--I'm well aware that lots of people don't have this particular set of problems. Unfortunately, it's kind of a key feature of the phone to have issues with. I now use a third party contacts app, so can get things done, but it's not as responsive or integrated as the built in app. Also, with all contacts being labeled "HD Calls", you have to kind of guess which number you are calling if you call from the call list. If I look up the contact using the third party app, then the various phone numbers are labeled correctly.

None of this is critical-

-I'm still using this rom, because in all other ways it beats the cr*p out of the other MJ9 roms I've used--let me be clear about that! I don't get the phone crashes and other truly disastrous behavior I was getting with other rooms. It's just what I said- nothing more. I use my phone substantially for business: calls, email, texting--because of my reasonably traditional phone uses, contacts are of particular importance to me. Because I know the rom is going to be upgraded I've spent less time on work arounds than I might otherwise, so it probably could work better even with it's issues, but I know the devs are fixing them altogether.

I hope this helps--it was a good, and fair question you asked me. The rom is, as you said, solid and stable. I never had the problems with installation and GPS that take up 80% of the posts here--it all worked out of the box.

:)

air command and battery

Can anyone tell me how to get air command working (i didnt skip anything with the aroma installation)? I have it turned on in the spen settings. I haven't even used it so I might just be doing it wrong. Also, the battery icon in the status bar is the circle with percentage when its charging, and the ugly green battery bar when its not. Is there a way to get that to be the circle/percentage all the time? (if im going to have to used xposed, can you refer me to the thread for install directions?)
