[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
The nightly from the 5-12 seems to be working alright, but the latest homemade breaks the phone. I had clean flashed the latest homemade, data and gps work fine, but the microphone wasn't working and phone calls were broken, if I received a call I couldn't hear anything and they couldn't hear me. I then wiped and flashed the nightly and that fixed the mic and phone features, and so I flashed the homemade over the nightly and it is broken again. So for now back to the nightly.

The homemade build is listed as t0lte and not l900, and also is listed as 5-10 not 5-11, is the correct homemade build linked to?

Thanks for your work on this, I enjoy the multiwindow function quite a bit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kul_dood:
Same thing happened to me to. I just dirty flashed back to 5/08 homemade and I'm OK now (with devils kernel).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] UtkarshGupta:
Can I have some recovery logs please ?

From twrp preferably.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
I can try to recreate this today and pull logs, but I have been using Devil Kernel as well and using a custom recovery based on Philz that works with dual boot so that I can run a daily and then flip to a different ROM when I want to. So I think my logs would be in cwm style.

I'll gladly flash TWRP and try to clean flash OMNI and see what kind of results I get, would you like me to just grab the most recent build of TWRP for l900? Lots of advice out there to avoid it right now for one reason or another with 4.4 ROMs.

*after a regular clean flash of the latest homemade here is a normal logcat and radio logcat* no baseband, calls/microphone broken
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
5/13 nightly

Here are logs after clean flashing the 5/13 nightly build.

baseband unknown, no calls/mic
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
And here are logs after flashing the latest homemade over the nightly build. Please let me know what else I can do :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Just to clarify this...This is ONLY an (ongoing) issue for the L900 Note 2's TWRP. All other Note 2 devices and all other devices in general have functioning TWRP in conjunction with 4.4 ROMs.

TWRP on L900 is known to be broken, and has been since November. It isn't any closer to making it work now than then, I'm not sure if BigBiff even has a Note2 anymore to test as his DD device is Note3 T-Mo....there hasn't even been an informative log gotten to the dev since November about what is causing the issue (I've been following the TWRP L900 thread).

TWRP is best described as kaput for L900 IMO. Would be nice if it changes, but I doubt it will before I sell my Note 2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Daevionne:
I can't figure out how to start multi window :rolleyes:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scoosch:
5/25 nightly

Just came back to check on this ROM, the 5/25 nightly build seems to be pretty swell. No issues that I could detect from my basic use. GPS lock, wi-fi, text msg, calls, mic, hotword detect, OmniSwitch...

Nice work!

[MENTION=4587405]Daevionne[/MENTION] the nightly builds do not have multiwindow support, if multiwindow support comes to our device for this ROM it will be from a homeade build, and it looks like the link to homemade builds has been removed from the op
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kul_dood:
So no more homemade builds anymore?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] enormous:
I've been running this ROM for a couple of weeks now, loving it!

Today I updated to the 6/09 nightly, and afterwards noticed that my SuperSU app was missing. I still have root, and even get the dialog for root access, but I can't open the SuperSU app itself. It doesn't show up in my launcher, but if I go to the Play Store it says it is still installed.

I've flashed the SuperSU update from recovery, and also reflashed the delta package. Both to no avail. Any pointers are appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] UtkarshGupta:
Its in settings app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] enormous:
Oh geez. Talk about a brain fart! Thanks for the answer and helping make this available to us. Really liking it. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kul_dood:
Hey Utkarsh, why did you take down the homemade builds? Did you decide to not make those anymore or is it possible the features from the homemade are going to get migrated to the nightlies?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
I'm having problems with the delta updates.

I installed the 6/12 nightly, devil kernel and pa gapps (and su/sensorfix). I'm using philz 6079 recovery. I tried the update through settings but it failed due to not having TWRP. I tried flashing the created zip in opendelta folder (also re-installed devil kernel and wiped cache/dalvik) but after, google play services crashes constantly and the play store is missing from app list.

Any idea what could have caused this and/or a solution?

Do I need to re-install gapps after update ...I thought this wasnt necessary on delta updates?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] andygu3:
With the 6/12 nightly being 4.4.3, try flashing delta rom update and then reboot. After you've rebooted, boot back into recovery and flash the kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
That actually is how I did it. Play services/store were broken after just delta update (plasma kernel was overwritten). Then reinstalled plasma but no change. **brain fart in original post, I meant plasma not devil.

I reinstalled gapps after delta update, settings reset but Rom seems stable.

Since I'm stable now, I'm more curious to see if this will repeat on future deltas and if other persistent updates get changed/reverted eg sensor fix.

I'm new to this rom, loving it btw, and very new to the deltas. Is it normal that the delta update zip is so large 280MB, which is larger than the standalone rom zip. I assume it would only create a zip with the changes/delta ...which looked minimal between 6/12 and 6/13 nightly (latest at time of delta update).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] UtkarshGupta:
Your data won't work if first boot isn't with stock kernel.

yep delta updated zips are bigger because they are uncompressed.d

If they are compressed, you'll have to download more.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
Question about OpenDelta/OTA updates. Does it take into account previous update downloads that were not flashed manually?

For example. If I ... Check Now > OpenDelta creates update package. Then I delete or move that packaged zip without flashing it first.

Will future O.D. updates assume that previously download changes have been installed (cached changes) or does OpenDelta always diff currently installed vs latest available.

lss

Are there any negative side effects from not flashing (and not keeping the "update.zip") that OpenDelta creates for future OTA updates?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Newbie_from_NJ:
Hi guys,

This ROM is working flawlessly! Thank you all for your excellent work!

I am interested on installing Xposed framework on this ROM, except I am afraid of flashing the wrong thing because Xposed is so huge its got sooo many different threads and sections, etc.

Can anyone please point me to the right location where I can install Xposed without breaking this ROM?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Kul_dood:
Xposed framework itself isn't going to mess up anything. It's the modules you have be careful with. Make sure any module you install is open source and commonly used and you should generally be fine.

I have xposed on my phone with this ROM. It's working fine. You can download it herehttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2714053
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] UtkarshGupta:
Good news!

1)Closed source camera blob has been merged.

What does this mean ? This means a very stable camera + much faster.

2)Sensor fix has also been merged into builds. So you don't need to flash it.

Also, I highly recommend either formating /system (not data) & manually flashing next build when it comes out, or you may run into problems.

This will not effect any of your data. Just flash latest build, gapps, supersu.

Next build will reflect new changes :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
Thank you and the rest of the Omni team for the continued support of the l900.

This rom is incredible; both fast and stable. This is the first rom that can handle what I throw at it. Both CM and TW based roms I have tried (which is almost all of the ones available on xda) just implode after I touch them; I'm loving Omni.

...I can't comprehend why more l900 users aren't on this rom. (soley based on lack of banter around here)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] egodriver07:
Thanks for this. So we're clear though, which build date will that be? The 7/7 build?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
Yes, per the changelog the camera/sensor updates were in the 7/7 nightly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] stylz3:
I installed the 7/7 nighly build but prior to doing so, I formatted system, flashed ROM, Gapps and then SuperSU and now I get camera is unavailable. Has anyone experienced this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Max-o:
I did the same thing but my camera is working fine. No longer hangs after a few pictures.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BetatesterFaze:
Flashed to a stock tw / philz touch with mobile odin (to fix the stupid baseband and other kernel related issues. then flashed 7/8 build and everything is smooth so far. I don't use 4g though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] enormous:
Anyone have suggestions for custom kernels that work well with the latest nightlies?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Patch7:
Plasma works great for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
I second Plasma ...the most recent versions are from http://www.plasmakernel.com or more specifically here and get the *_omni.zip. Also recommend the Synapse app from the market for kernel settings, they're written by the same dev.

Devil kernel apparently works too (Devil3.4_0.1.4) but I haven't used it personally so I can't confirm this, it also hasn't been updated in a few months.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ipzant:
How do you get the multi keys and the HomeUp working??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ipzant:
All the time the I update the Rom my phone lost the baseband and everything else with the carrier. Its anyway to fix that without go back to stock and reflash Omni Again!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] evolone:
Synapse

...all the 'special' features of his kernel require his kernel settings app
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] imann:
Are you using TWRP? I couldn't get that to work properly and had to go back to philz.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] crking1980:
Philz has always ran the best for me on this device
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ipzant:
Ok!! go back to Philz, but auto -update won't be possible. Thanks!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] singe0072:
I run Philz and yes the auto-update is not completely automatic but does work. Omni puts the update files on your sdcard called OpenDelta. So if you push Flash from the system update screen it will reboot into recovery and stop in Philz with an error. All you have to do is navigate in Philz to the OpenDelta folder and install the update.

As always make a backup in Philz before installing an update or new ROM.

~singe0072
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Devotech:
Philz will flash automatically... Go to the System Update screen, and hit the menu - Uncheck "Secure". Philz will then automatically flash fine after that. Put any it items you need to flash after the ROM in the "Flash after update" folder in the Open Delta folder. This is where you would put the SuperSU zip to auto root after the update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Daevionne:
If TWRP doesn't work for L900 4.4, and the install fails on Philz, then how do we install the rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] skye206:
Philz install the Roms just fine. Its the auto update feature that was ment to work with twrp. You don't need to use the auto update feature its just quicker and easier. You could flash the updates or nightlys traditionally.

Some one please confirm this. This is how it works in similar Roms like PA
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Max-o:
If you try to flash an update without turning the secure feature off it will fail and you need to install in manually like an other nightly. But if you turn off the secure feature then yes, philz will work with auto updating. And like Devotech said, you can then put zips into the "flash after update" folder like kernels.

Nightly Problems

I noticed the last 2 nightlies and md5s don't have any size, as in 0 kb. Anybody know why and when it'll be fixed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] UtkarshGupta:
Nightlies will continue starting tomorrow.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] sliverr7x:
New nightlie is up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Newbie_from_NJ:
Running latest Nightly (8-3-14) and have been experiencing random reboots frequently. I have Philz recovery and stock kernel.

Anyone else experiencing random reboots?

Also noticed that both my file managers (ES File Explorer and FX) have lost access to be able to write to my SD Card within the past week. I found this solution, SD Fix, but it's mainly for rooted stock ROM as most customs ROMs already have the fix.

Is it okay to run this apk on this ROM?

---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------

So I decided to give SDFix a try and the app stated that my device appears to already have write access to SD Cards.

Anyone else having this issue?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Newbie_from_NJ:
I wanted to provide an update regarding my random reboots and not being able to write to SD card. I'm glad to report it had nothing to do with this ROM.

I actually have a corrupted 64GB Sandisk Microsd card, which cannot be formatted. Found many complaints online about this card and Samsung devices. I tried formatting the card in Linux, Windows - no avail. Kept getting "card is write protected" error.

I finally contacted Sandisk and they confirmed it's a known issue. Card has lifetime warranty so they are going to replace it.

Plasma. Go to plasmakernel.com. He also has an XDA thread and you can follow him on G+ for it. Good kernel. Good Dev. Still being updated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] latingonzo86:

No cell service

Ok, so weird issue. I was running the team venum modded stock 4.3 rom, with the mk4 radio. I installed that with clockwork mod. I had been keeping an eye out for Omnirom, and saw that it had been released for the sprint galaxy note 2, and thought I would try it. I installed the 1-29 nightly using CWM, installed and worked great. I was looking around and did the update firmware in the settings menu and it found the 1-30 nightly. I downloaded and it stated that it needed TWRP to install from there. Fine, I download goomanager from the store and do the install open recovery script. It does its thing and installs twrp. I then update the 1-30 nightly and reboot. When it boots everything is fine, except that I have no radio. I look under the about phone, and it says unknown under baseband. I reboot and try a full system wipe and reflash 1-29. still no service. I try flashing 3 different modems. nothing. I reflash team venum 4.3 modded rom, and i have cell service. reflash Omni, and i get no service. (i did full wipes including davlik, cache, etc.)

any ideas?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
The advice to use TWRP is for all devices...not L900 specific...it is widely known that TWRP hates 4.4 ROMs, and flashing 4.4 ROMs with TWRP results in no radio service on the L900 Note2.

Use PhilZ or CWM.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] dbiehl1979:
Excellent, thank you very much. That did the trick. :good:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DatBoiJeremy:
Great rom with all the features I like. Just one question. On the tiles part, how do you delete a tile from the menu? I know how to move them, just not take away.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Handled:
If you just press once, the tile will reduce in size. Then when you're done configuring and press the config button (which is now the return to tile mode button), they'll be gone. At least, that's how it's done on my i605.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DatBoiJeremy:
AHHH, you're a giant lifesaver!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] davesbest:
You will need to re-flash the latest SuperSU, which I believe is version 1.91, or, if you are using Philz Touch 6, you can reboot to recovery and choose "Philz Settings," then "Re-root System." You may have to re-install Super SU from the Play Store after flashing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mephistonian:
Quick question, what gapps is everyone using / succeeding with?

It would seem that 4.4 roms only play well with select gapps packages.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] andygu3:
Use the Paranoid Android gapps
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] iwould4adollar:
I use Paranoid Android's micro gapps. Grab extras from the Playstore and they can get greenified. Easy peasy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mephistonian:
Thanks friends. :) Much obliged.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubleu:
Coming from CM11, and then a couple-week stint on GreyFox, I have 2 interface questions:

1) Are the optional toggle buttons that were above the notifications but below the notification title, depreciated and gone from all roms from this point forward?

I've already gotten used to having "center" quick pulldown, so forget this question

2) I can't seem to find a way to add bold hours/weather/etc. to the lockscreen?

Discovered the lockscreen stuff under the 'security' settings menu, and found Chronus in the play store.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guisar:
Sounds like the dev team is making a lot of progress on mw for everyone but in the meanwhile the xhalowindows module in xposed is pretty fully featured. I had issues when I tried the notification helper but otherwise it's resizeable, movable and has a ton of options. Love it.

while you guys are enjoying the awsomeness of Android 4.4.2 im still stuck with Crappy Mk4 4.3 touchwiz which pisses me off. i made a post about it a while back and no one cared to help me as i provided as much info as possible. the rom flashes through i did google apps and bam it gets stuck at boot regardless of me wiping after flashing it still gets stuck at bootloop it wont go past the animation of any KK rom

Funny thing is android 4.2.2 works perfect any aosp 4.2.2 but 4.4 doesnt at all

What recovery are you using, and which gapps are you flashing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] zachdees:
im using Clockwork mod recovery 6.0.4.3 the latest. ive returned the phone back to stock like 5 times trying to fix the issue ive let the phone boot on the animation for 1 whole day and still sticks to animation i dont flash any google apps until i see the home screen which i havnt at all.

Omni rom works fine if you dont use CWM You wont have data which deosnt make since. its funny that Omni rom works perfect but Cyanogemod 4.4.2 doesnt booot at all nor does any aosp rom except for this one. really starting to make me mad

im at the point of selling my phone and getting the note 3 or Nokia 2510
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rallaster:
No GPS?

Well, this makes ROM #4 of the KK AOSP flavor that has failed me with GPS. Seriously don't want to go back to JB TW... :/

Figure I may as well throw my flashing steps up here.

Running Philz Touch, I boot into recovery and Wipe Data/Factory reset and click "Clean to Install a New ROM". Then I Wipe Data/Factory Reset as well as Wipe Cache. Then I flashed the omni-4.4.2-20140213-l900-NIGHTLY.zip. Booted up and ran through the setup. Rebooted and installed GPS Status and Tools app. Updated A-GPS data and attempted to get GPS lock. Waited 5 minutes and the GPS satellite location information wasn't showing any satellites in view. Went outside to try to get a lock and no change.

Any advice?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] doubleu:
(If you've already tried this, I apologize, but...) Do you have a TouchWiz rom you can nandroid-restore back to, to do a Profile update, PRL update, and obtain a GPS lock with?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rallaster:
I hadn't tried flashing back to TW. I didn't know if there were any special requirements to go back to 4.3JB. (I remember I flashed back to TW got a lock and then flashed back to AOSP and GPS is working. I was concerned about issues flashing back to TW4.3 and was hesitant because I got burned on my S2 flashing from JB back to ICS because of partition and bad PIT chip issues which resulted in a hard brick.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] andygu3:
No worries going back to 4.3 and updating prl & profile update and getting a solid gps fix.

The tap and pay in settings seems to have no effect but I have wallet up and running fine. I do have issue s with the lock screen and answering phone calls but it's easy, if a bit annoying to call people back. Tetjer , Bluetooth, GPS, xposed framework also work. I haven't tried a USB DAC but that's my only other must have so working great here.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mikelav456:
Sorry to beat a dead horse here, but I am not totally sure if what you said above means I can use the phone to actually tap and pay with google wallet. I have Wallet up and running on PA, but no NFC functions, including tap and pay, will work. Does NFC and tap and pay actually work here?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jocarog:
Does your nfc work with tags like reading them or writing to it? It might be your secure element...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guisar:
