If I RUU, what's my best option for unlocking the bootloader? Can you still use HTC dev?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
yes
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Yep.

If I use the 3.17 RUU will it change my hboot? Not that it matters, just curious. You don't happen to have a link for the 3.17 ruu do you? Any thoughts on the viperuu?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Yep, you'll have the newest Hboot. Doesn't really matter since you're S-off. Hit the top link in my sig and go to the bottom of the first post.

Same hboot as far as I know.

If you are running Moonshine or Rumrunner hboot it may overwrite it but you can just re-flash the hboot again
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
:good::good: Thanks for the help guys. This looks like something I'll tackle on my next day off. Lol, the way my luck's been running lately this may not go as smoothly as it should.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
He's on 1.19 so it'll update to 2.09. As far as VipeRUU, I don't have an opinion on it. I've used it previously on a phone that had a borked recovery partition and it worked just fine. It's really a matter of personal preference.

I ran the 3.17 RUU on my phone the other night just for the heck of it. It takes about ten minutes from start to finish but it's pretty painless.

Just curious. When you were showing how to install recovery, how did you go about doing it?

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
I was in the goomanager app showing him how you could use it to install open script recovery & accidentally started to download it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
I tried to run the 3.17 Ruu & got an error [158]: image error

It says: The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility & try again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Try a different USB port USB2 work the best
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
I am using USB 2.0. I'll try on my laptop later & update then.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
I ended up running the viperuu. I'm now back to being unlocked/rooted with twrp. What a pain in my arse. :D

Thanks again guys!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLAZ7O2:
I currently have a RAZR M and the only things i have do to it is root it and flash back a factory firmware. I have no service (Verizon) on it i just use it on WiFi. Now for some reason on the bottom of the lock screen and notification bar the numbers (123456) are showing up and i have no idea why. I checked to see if someone of a program installed the spy program 1Mole but found nothing. Do you have have any clue what this is or am i just being paranoid...

CHANGELOG​
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I updated CWM recovery for you all to give a try with kitkat. Works fine by me and I'm not looking for feedback nor will I really be supporting this. I'm just sharing with you my updated is all! CWM-6.0.4.7-recovery-sgh-i717.zip

This IS now working for android 4.4.2 & earlier rom versions.

TWRP

ATTN: Flash at your own risk! I am not responsible for bricks or exploding devices!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
I do have a bad sweet tooth. Hmmmmm

Is your twrp going to be isolated to work with this 4.4 alone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I posted cwm in my other thread. It was compiled with the rom and should work fine with this one as well. I will however check to see if it had been updated, and if so, will post it in this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] HD2FORNICK:
Almost front row seats. :D

Downloading now! :D:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
I only asked because there has not been a TWRP for the i717 that works with 4.4, and you have the option posted in your installation. I made a minor goof too mistaking the Aroma installer. I have always put the two hand in hand. Not many use Aroma, so I guess I never thought it compatable with CWM. Now that I think back though, I beleive I use the two for the first time with my Infuse.

My Note is semi retired but its good to see new blood here and MAN have I had an itch to flash something.

Thanks for feeding the wolf.

Anyone up and running?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Oh I understand, we all made a layout to share and I actually never thought about twrp being in it for this phone. I do appreciate you bringing that to my attention. I just haven't had the time to look into updating twrp for this device.

EDIT: Sweetener Pack updated! Lockmax and scrubbers updated plus added a few more selections!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] butchieboy:

How does the sweetener pack work? Flash with ROM? Or please explain.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mar5hal:

After.

Technically you can flash it with most cm/aosp ROMs but it's launched with ours :victory:

Did the new update address the MMS & Bluetooth issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I did not dig any deeper into BT since it was just recently mentioned in this thread. Our main goal was to get more features added and to share it with everyone. Let me know if the bt issues are still there & I'll look into it further. Personally I do not use bt so I wouldn't know if there was a problem in that area, that's why we share the rom ;) MMS has had several tweaks so let me know? This phone is not my DD and I don't have an active sim card in it currently so I cannot test the mms yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] xxflyingarmbarxx:
Sounds like a plan, I'll flash tonight and rum it through the ringer tomorrow and see what I come up with. If there's any issues I'll post here as soon as I catch em. Definitely loving the ROM though. Its been my DD since initial release. Keep up the good work man.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I do apreciate the kind words! Also an FYI to everyone, there are about 3 different folks working on an update to TWRP 2.7.0.0 & I am one of them. Bigbiff & I both have booting recoveries, but they are not currently able to actually flash kk roms yet. I'm uncertain as to how long it may take to get things sorted out but if the recovery that I am currently compiling doesn't work, then I am willing to work together with Bigbiff & anyone else working on or interested in helping with this project.

If the patch isn't applied to cm source then you will. Do you mind posting the patch so I can see if it can be implemented into our source? :good:

Hope it helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] elheffe:
I haven't used any patches on cm based ROMs for a long time. At least last 2 versions of any cm ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mar5hal:
If you don't have to flash any patches [MENTION=5408811]elheffe[/MENTION] then you should be good to just flash the ROM [MENTION=4411694]silent_eve[/MENTION]

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Demmonnixx:
In the update changelog when you candy sweetener, does that mean it is now fixed and supported or is something added within the rom? Just curious
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Yayodroid:
Yea, I'm still wondering about the candy sweeteners as well. Didn't know if they are good to go yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Guys I have not got the Candy Sweetener Packs working properly yet. I have actually been working on a TWRP update for this device and feel that it's far enough along to share with you all. It's in post 3 but read it before you flash it. You MUST place anything to be flashed on the sd card. I have not gotten the internal mounting yet but it is flashing KitKat roms for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Truetek:
Flashed 1.3, so far so good. Only issue now is the screen won't turn on every time I press the power button. I do use a lock screen, and tried changing the CPU governor to Interactive and Ondemand, no difference...

I know one solution to this is to use Wheatley governor, but I flashed UBER kernel, and when the phone boots up, i get a constant popup saying something along the lines of :

"Android.system.phone has stopped responding" over and over and over...

Anyone else tried flashing UBER with different results?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Mine seems to wake from the power button pretty good but I'll look into it further. I may also build another Rom with the uber kernel baked in to see what results we might get.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Roism:
Issues with v1.3

Thanks for doing a great work and hopefully my input would help others

I have been using this ROM since the Friday update.

I reloaded everything ROM/GAPPS after doing the three wipes as usual

The following are the issues I came across in past 48 plus hours

1) Android.system.phone has stopped responding - experienced multiple times especially coming off the reboot

2) Power button does not respond from screen lock...sometimes its a hit or a miss that it will respond. If no response it reboots and comes on again....trebauchet launcher then does not work

3) Can not delete other APN that I do not need in APN setting...it crashes and closes

4) I see multiple ATT atleast three when I go to select Network Provider....then if say choose ATT upon reboot it does not see the network for 5 mins or so and claims no network available

5) I did not choose to activate google now on intial setup so now its not part of home screen. Also do not see "ok google" in the search bar on the home screen

6) Have not played much with halos as I do not really understand that concept along with the sweetner thing so no input here

7) Did not experience any issue with bluetooth so far, maps work fine too

8) Touch response sometimes seem delayed by 2 to 3 secs...random

9) When phone has restrained data juice (wifi or cellular) its hangs up and the phone starts getting hot

10) Used map over the weekend for 45 mins and experienced 60% battery drain

Q) If I want to revert back to stock Jelly Bean debloated, do I need to use odin to post stock recovery and then root or can I simple reload the debloated ROM and Gapps associated with it? Please advice and if you have link that works well for ROM and GAPP please link that to my response.

Regards

Ro
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
I have this rom as a backup and revert to it occasionally. Sometimes if I have kitkat issues, I'll go to this one to sort things out. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1773408
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] elheffe:
It should be noted that the final uber build was Jan 20 meaning it is now unsupported and will not be updated.

I have never had an android system unsupported message on this ROM.

For wakelock issue I just bump the min CPU frequency one step and it might wakelock one time in 30. If it does its a matter of pressing the power button 3x instead of 1x. Once again never had a reboot because of wakelock.

No problems with apns data WiFi or phone getting hot?

If you want OK Google use the Google launcher and it works just fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Roism:
I tried installing this rom you have linked and few other Jelly Bean ROMs but ever since I used this Candy Kat rom I am unable to install to an older Android OS...its keep aborting. I am using CWM Recovery (latest) that we had to use to load Candy Kat.

What am I possibly doing wrong in order to bring back Jelly Bean?

CandyKat With Uber Kernel Live In OP!

Elheffe mentioned using text now for mms? I assume it works fine.

That just means the dev is no longer supporting that kernel. It's still an active source and I have added the build with the uber kernel in the OP! Enjoy!

*Custom Candy Images

I'll try that one but please let me know on the, really looking forward to the customization options in Candy sweetener.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Any time man! Let me know what you think of the uber build? I don't think that s2w is working properly but the governor's all seem to be great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Truetek:
Thanks for the build with UBER, it works awesomely! Switched the governor to Wheatley and now it wakes on every power button press. I never use the S2W feature, but I tried it, seemed to work, just got to get the timing right. Although I'd prefer to have it disabled without having to install trickster mod... Vibrating in my pocket randomly, making me think I've missed a call or message...

I noticed one more issue though: I can't tether my internet through Bluetooth anymore... I paired my phone to my tablet, and as soon as I try to connect, it flashes connected for a split second then disconnects. I'm tethering through Wi-Fi for now.

Thanks for the active support gimme! We all appreciate it! You're making it harder for me to let go and upgrade in a few weeks! ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:
Does tethering work with Jamies uber kernel through Bluetooth? I'm sure that the kernel is to blame for it not to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Truetek:
I don't think so, it wasn't working with the ROM that didn't have UBER either...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gimmeitorilltell:

Candy Sweetener Pack 1 is now flashable with our device!!!! You MUST grab the latest TWRP 2.7.0.0 recovery to do this with! You will find twrp in the link below. Note: This is still a WIP but nonetheless you can flash kk roms & the Candy Sweetener with it.

Good stuff. No issues yet with patches
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willanhanyard:
So I found out why my front camera hasn't been working today. I tried flashing several ROMs with and without the uber kernal/video/flicker patches and nothing worked. So I finally just took apart my phone and found my front camera has a MASSIVE rip across the flex cable lol! Half of the thing is completely torn. I was like "Well there's your problem!" So I just ordered a new front camera for like $6. After that I can completely enjoy the awesomeness of this ROM. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Truetek:
Always satisfying to find the source of a problem!

Although I still can't set the power shutter option without the camera crashing and no longer functioning... anyone got that to work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Demmonnixx:
Question for you or anyone who know and can answer:

Say if I wanted to add more custom lockrings etc to the candy sweetener.zip what would I have to do?

Extract, add what I want and re-zip? If so what is better? 7zip or ?

Please let me know as I've made some pretty cool lockrings and want to test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mar5hal:
You would need to add the folders to the zip. Sometimes using zip themer is easier. Theirs a candyshop thread in the nexus device threads. Try the n5 themes and apps section first :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Demmonnixx:
Thanks man. I tried that way before the new TWRP with CWM but kept giving an error when flashing. Maybe it'll work now with the TWRP, didn't think about that. I'll give it a shot now. Thanks again!

Edit: It seems as though, the folders or destination is not the same for our devices as n4 or n5. I don't know alot about the format it needs to be as far as folders go. I've tried modifying the folder names and nothing seems to work. Keep getting error when I go to flash, the last error I had said something along the lines of not being able to find detention folder or something. I'll have write it down next time.

Ok, so say within the sweetener pack, if I extract it, change a image but not the name in the lockring folder and then re-zip with 7zip would it work and be something I could flash without getting errors?
