After root, status continue as official.

check boxes grayed out

I attempted to use Odin to root my Galaxy Note but all the checkboxes are checked and grayed out. How do I get them so I can select and unselect the options you specified in this tutorial? Thanks for your help.

Saferoot works fine, if you have issues with Odin.

Plus you do not need to run triangle away as it does not mess with the flash counter and leaves your device Official.

What is the best ROM for galaxy note 2 T-Mobile because lately I have had bam pro,omni ROM ,gummy ROM,cm11,bean stalk , and those are not so great but descent i want the best ROM that is customizable and great transitions when opening apps and closing like bam pro
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bruce lee roy:
Buy a Nexus.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
okay if you want the most stable stick with a touchwiz ROM. there's really only two options right now that are 4.3 that's Jedi and swarm Rom. also I noticed you just fixed the problem flashing roms for what a day maybe two, so that means you went to six different roms in those couple days. They take some time to settle in there's a lot of people who say that these are very stable maybe if you ran through them all it's because you're not letting them get settled in to actually enjoy them. Myself I'm still on swarm ROM with my own customization. Also this thread will be locked soon as users are expected to research for themselves as best to me is different then best to you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JustCreateYou:
[MENTION=4155494]kintwofan[/MENTION] your right, the most stable 4.4 Roms will maybe be Omni ROM and Cm11 bean stalk is good for customizing and what not but lags at a point like any ROM and gummy ROM has force closes at times , and bam pro is great but only if it was for 4.4 KitKat . and I personally don't like touchwiz the interface is horrid

How to connect my Android device via file manager (personally I use FileMaster) to my Windows laptop? It requires a login and password that I haven't. Thanks.
[Networking] MrObvious:
You could see if ES File Explorer will do it, or you could set up a FTP server on your computer (FileZilla).
[Networking] beautifulsun:
OK, it works too in FileMaster, now I can access to my laptop, but a pass is mandatory? It can't be a no pass free login?
[Networking] MrObvious:
No idea. Are you trying computername\username or just username? Windows likes to have a domain, even if it is just the local hostname of the computer. I work in an IT department so I see this kind of stuff a lot with *nix computers and Windows. Android is a version of Linux custom really.
[Networking] manudo:
Tried this?

Open the app, turn on the switch, go to computer, download filezilla, type IP and port, connect and voila!

In Ubuntu is so much easier!
[Networking] Mike Duffy:
Go to: support.microsoft.com/kb/147706

Use the highest level that works. For user and password it depends on if the computer is a domain member. You can use a local account if you are able to add permissions to the ACL. Don't forget to do it on the share as well as the share root (& subsequent lower level directories as needed, etc.)

If an XP or older which uses "share level" instead of "user level", use the username "guest" and for password use whatever password you put on the workgroup share when you set it up.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brinmb:
So I finally found some time for my unlocked and rooted nexus 4. Right now it is on 4.3 stock and I want to update to 4.4.2. Now the question which I couldn't find an answer on Google: Do I loose root after manual update? I've seen some videos on that, but some say that you need stock recovery (I have TWRP), but nothing about root.

Also, I'd install Franco kernel after that.

Help and possible tutorial would be appreciated, I'm still kinda new to android.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
You can have a stock experience by installing the Experience ROM in the development thread.

[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
Hi xda-community,

I would like to share my first (and extremly simple ;)) Xposed module with you.

This module allows you to slide before you have to draw/type in your security pattern/pin/whatever. It is particularly useful if you use CyanogenMod (or other ROMs, that allow App shortcuts in lockscreens) and want to use both shortcuts AND a security pattern/pin/whatever. It works similiar to HTC's Sense UI (3.x).

ROMs modified by manufacturers are known to have issues with this module (see below).

You install and use this module at your own risk!
I am not responsible for any damage it might cause to your beloved device!

Please note, that there is a sad bug present by using App shortcuts (in CM etc.) in lockscreen, which decreases the usability: You have to "unlock" your device with your pattern/pin/whatever twice. If you just unlock you don't have to do it twice. Therefore I rate this module as alpha. I would be very happy if someone has a solution to this problem :).

Supported ROMs

TESTED and CONFIRMED WORKING:

AOSP:

- 4.3 (JellyBean)

- 4.4 (KitKat)

AOSP based:

- CM 10.2 (JellyBean 4.3)

Stock/OEM ROMs:

- Asus: 4.2 (JellyBean)

- Sony Xperia: 4.2 (JellyBean) - 4.4 (KitKat)

Should work on:

- 4.2+ (JellyBean) (lockscreen has been overhauled in 4.2, therefore no <= 4.1)

- 4.4 (KitKat)

- all AOSP based ROMs (CM, AOKP, Para, etc.) with Android 4.2+

Unsupported/problematic ROMs

ROMs modified by manufacturers are known to have issues with this module:

Samsung (TouchWiz):

- 4.2/4.3: simply does not work

- 4.4: has less issues, see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51980630&postcount=52

Credits

@rovo89 Your framework is amazing!

Known bugs

- Using app shortcuts causes you to "unlock" your device twice (see above)

- App shortcut to browser does not work (needs confirmation..)

How to use

1. Install Xposed framework as described here

2. Download and install XLockSecuritySlide via Xposed Installer (or see below)

3. Enable XLockSecuritySlide in Xposed Installer

4. Reboot and enjoy!

HELP ME!

If something went wrong (e. g. unlockable device) you can use the flashable Xposed recovery disabler ZIP (see attachment of that post!), which disables Xposed and therefore this module. After that you can safely disable/uninstall this module and re-enable Xposed again!

[MENTION=5305619]Stevolk[/MENTION] bro It is working fine:good: in my Xperia ZR running Stock 4.3 Jelly bean. but there is a small bug :( . The Xperia swipe screen is fine, but the pattern screen becomes black, I approximately need to draw the pattern in order to unlock the screen. But when I enable AOSP lockscreen using GEM Xposed module, both AOSP lock screen & pattern lockscreen is working fine:D :victory:. Thanks for you work. Screens attached for your info

[Xposed Framework Modules] Ranomez:
Great module, works as expected on my HTC One X+ with CM11 android 4.4.2 but after switching to an other security while the module was active (from password to pin in my case) the phone soft rebooted upon sliding the slider again.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
Hm.. it seems, that my module isn't compatible with OEM customized lockscreens, TouchWiz does also have issues. I updated the first post with this information.

If I have time, I'll have a look but it has low priority.

I was annoyed, that no module existed with this functionality so I made one myself ;) The only thing that isn't working correctly (except from compatibility with non-AOSP lockscreens like TouchWiz) is the double answering of security method if you use app shortcuts. :(

Hm.. that is strange. I cannot reproduce this in AOSP 4.4.2 so far. :confused: Does it soft-reboot only one time after you switched the method or multiple times? Could you attach a logcat maybe?
[Xposed Framework Modules] kt-Froggy:
0.2 does not work on LG Optimus G, stock 4.1.2 (bummer!), but works perfectly on Asus Memo Pad HD 7, stock 4.2.2 (yay!). Thanks a lot for this! Have been missing this feature since Disaster ROM on my previous SGS2...
[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
Thanks for your feedback!

Any Android version below 4.2 is not supported because the lockscreen code has been heavily restructured in 4.2 ;)

Finally a stock ROM that works! :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] kt-Froggy:
Ahh, OK, I should have read the OP more carefully... Makes sense. Thanks!

I can only guess that's because Asus didn't make a lot of customizations to the vanilla Android -- some, but not much... For example, TouchWiz or Sense are way more heavily customized in every aspect. I can say that other Xposed modules that are originally designed for AOSP ROMs actually work much better on my Asus tablet than on other devices, like Samsung or LG (I am talking about stock ROMs).
[Xposed Framework Modules] amey_gangal:
Okay..big bug spotted

After swiping to get the pin/password/whatever if you hit the back button the security screen just disappears and the device is unlocked making the lock actually useless as it gets bypassed..

Can anyone else confirm this?

If so.. Dev please try to fix it ASAP
[Xposed Framework Modules] kt-Froggy:
On my tablet, the on-screen Back button doesn't activate until the device is actually unlocked, so, no bug for me (can't bypass the lock screen). Could be different with hardware nav buttons...
[Xposed Framework Modules] amey_gangal:
Okay so apparently only the people with hardware buttons may see this happen
[Xposed Framework Modules] kennyboyismr47:
I found that happening on mine when I swiped across the camera then hit back to get out of it but I just tried swiping to get the pin then hitting back and it is unlocking like yours is. I'm on a Note 3 on 4.4.2.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rush25:
thanks a lot for this :D

suggestion :-

when we slide then the secured lock comes in a box [See Screenshot 1]..can it be made to come in normal way [See Screenshot 2]

[Xposed Framework Modules] bog3nator:

[Xposed Framework Modules] ghost0211:
YOU ARE AWESOME! i never thought about that
[Xposed Framework Modules] kennyboyismr47:
Working as it should after the latest update, thanks.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
The box was a side effect of the "old" code. After I'd found a better way to hook and inject code this box went away. :D

Normally this box only appears if you directly jump into an app from the lockscreen, e.g. if you touch a notification or use whatsapp within lockscreen.

But I'll have a look (maybe).

[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
Maybe things have changed since the last version because I (nearly) completely replaced the code. You can give it a try, but do not expect anything ;)

The problem is, that 1. I do not have a sony xperia device to easily test it out, 2. I have very limited resources at the moment.

But it is on my todo-list (for that hopefully not so far future..) :)

But, if you use any other ROM than stock, especially AOSP based ROMs like CM, Paranoid, AOKP etc. it works well.

It's the same with Samsung TouchWiz based ROMs.

My goal is to make it work with nearly all commonly used ROMs.

I hope, you (and other users) understand that. :(

I enabled the module and restarted, then disabled it as it didn't work with gravity box then restarted however it still shows both ring and pin, how do I disable it (it is uninstalled)? I have tried: restarting, changing lock pattern/type I am running kk (you might want to make the incomparability in caps, and say that it works, but can't be uninstalled fully)
[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
Haven't tested compatibility with GravityBox yet.

This module doesn't alter any system files or changes settings, therefore an uninstallation, which does work, is the only step required to remove its functionality (ofc disabling does work too after a phone restart!). I don't know why you have problems with it, my tests on KK AOSP were successful. BUT my idea is, that GravityBox might get confused in any way. I'll have a look. Do you use any GB setting for lockscreen?

Gesendet von meinem Desire S mit Tapatalk
[Xposed Framework Modules] ollie299792458:
Don't worry, your module activated a setting in gravitybox that I hadn't noticed which I have now disabled and it works fine. Your module obviously hooks the same thing GB does, sorry for being a bother

In the OP I state, that my module can cause problems with stock ROMs. Don't blame me, if you ignored the warning. Instead of factory resetting your phone, you could have just disabled Xposed via the Xposed disabler (see attachment in http://xdaforums.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401).

[Xposed Framework Modules] user44:
i know this is only available for 4.2 and up, but is there a way to make it work on 4.1.2
[Xposed Framework Modules] kleest:
Of course there is. The module has to be adjusted to work with the different lockscreen source code in 4.1- since it has been heavily modified in Android 4.2+. As I am only using versions greater than 4.1 I haven't spent time for getting it work with 4.1-. That's because the mod had been a personal project originally but later on I've thought it might be helpful for other ppl too, so I've released it.

I won't promise anything, maybe I will have a look at 4.1 and/or other things but not now and not in the near future. Please don't expect anything.

I encourage other to have a look if you like, pull requests to the github repository are welcome! :)
