[MENTION=2585040]Ohh_Trenton[/MENTION]. Will you just get a note 3 already! I have been seriously missing your wonderful Roms!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
@ Ohh_Trenton,the (REL) did the trick thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdbowman:
I'm curious to those that have used both the S5 flavored version of this ROM and B8, which you prefer? I was thinking about trying the S5 version out for fun, but I have no reasons to try anything else other than to kill time. I love B8. Just wanting others opinions. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
I actually really like the S5 look. It's a more consistent look throughout the system. But I love B8 more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rod_ol_fo:
i keep switching from one to the other every couple of days cuz i cant decide lol however if the kitkat emojis were added to S5 rom i think i'd stick with S5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdbowman:
FYI, not sure if anyone else was having the issue that I reported about the force close of text to speech... But I solved mine by uninstalling google text to speech with titanium and then installing it from the play store then rebooting. Works perfect now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DrunkUncas:
Trent, did you remove zero wake lag at some point?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jsadler09:
Just clean wiped 5 and started fresh with 8 and am loving it, great battery life with brightness all the way up, thanks so much for this ROM!

I've noticed the wake lag too and forget if there was something I did or flashed in build 5 to get rid of it. I searched this thread and saw old posts about editing wake lag in build.prop, is that still necessary?

- Jared
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
http://d-h.st/LFr you can flash this to enable wake lag again! You're welcome && thanks for running my work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Please wait....... :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] michigan66:
I'm excited now!!! Load it up Trent!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jsadler09:
Thanks, downloading now.

I'm running handscent SMS with their emoji plugin and can no longer see them, they are all blacked out. Tested android and Swiftkey keyboards, reinstalled the emoji app. I've searched but haven't found anything on this. Anyone seen this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] michigan66:
I read the help section from swiftkey and that said it is a font issue. I tried the few they suggested and none worked. The emojis show up when you press them but you can't see them on the keyboard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] onefast50:
Is this a 4.4 Rom in version B8 or still 4.3 version made to look like 4.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
B8 is still jellybean. Working on KitKat ATM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kdizzleh85:
Can't wait. This will be great.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deejaydark:
Hey Trent... anyway in getting SdSwap working on B8?

Beans Build "22"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrep182:
Hey Trenton, thanks for your hard work. This is the first day I'm checking out your rom. I was wondering if you know a way to edit APN by any chance? this will come handy for my trip overseas next month. Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Theres an app called APN Manager you can try out. To be honest, i don't know much about APN's. I can look into enabling for build 9.

Guys, Im 95% done with KK. I need to squash these small annoyances. But I have some great goodies for you. Never seen or used in any build yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Great,can't wait!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Me either, Im exhausted! I just want to run this bad boy already

Things to do::::

Re-Do The OP. Make it look Nice for The Debut of KitKat & Build 9

Polish up the ROM

Sleep????

Bugs so far:

NONE! Well so far...

Cosmetic flaw:

Can't remove 0 from time. (Ex Mon 06:26 am.) Still looking into it.

All of this is possible mainly from Kryten2k35 who has been a HUGE HUGE help in the progress of my ROM and okayed me to merge and use some of his marvelous work from his UltimaROM. Check him out and the work he put in over there.

DSA also was a huge help with the AOSP lock screen and is also apart of the Alliance Family.

Finally, I'd like to thank my roommate Alexa who has put up with my late nights and even all nighters. I had to sacrifice time with her for this but I enjoy modding and doing this whole custom rom thing very much.

That's all for now... ☺ Keep checking the OP as I will be making changes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
I'll so excited to try this I was hitting F5 in Firefox all day today!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RemnantKing2:
I've been doing the same, I've even stopped flashing other roms once ive heard he was working on a new build, even if it meant dealing with a few annoyances for a while longer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrep182:
oh man, should have waited to flash this ROM (did it 5 days ago) until the KK debut. Oh well, regardless, I'm excited too!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] pgzerwer:

Google Drive Keeps Crashing, Tried multiple uninstall/Install on B8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdbowman:
Per Trent in earlier comments do the following. Fixed mine right up:

Change your codename in the build.prop to REL. that should remove those Google drive issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Obviously not asking for ETA but since you already gave one. My fingers are hurting from pressing F5 all day:P. Anxiously awaiting Build 9!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Yeah... It is delayed a bit. Ran into a couple issues I want to try to eliminate as much as possible... Im at Starbucks tryna finish it now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
Thanks buddy take your time. We all appreciate your perfection!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolestmage:
Can't wait!

Thanks for all the hard work! I can't wait to be running 4.4!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] allankhouri:
Thanks for the info, it worked! Hope he fixes that in the next update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] allankhouri:
Anyone know of a way of reverting to the touchwiz dialer

I like the AOSP one but my fiance' likes the four categories in the touchwiz one. I could use another dialer from the market but would like it seamless for her. Thanks for all your help in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
So with build 9 will it still be safestrap able install or does the update to 4.4 Change all that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] audiophizile:
I'm assuming this won't be able to flashed with SS which sucks as I had to get a warranty replacement and am stuck on SS :(

Still looking forward to a new phone with upgrade due next month. Anyone know if they still let you pull the switch with another line to keep your unlimited? I have 2 dumb phone lines ($10 a piece a month) to be able to upgrade my wife and my phone and keep our unlimited. This has worked if using the upgrade through Verizon so you can switch lines without getting a fee. Just wondering if any of you have had experience with this recently.e
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kdizzleh85:
Yeahhhhh Man!!! Been waiting for this.

If ya need anything just holler. Also i was wondering if you were up to making a flashable for those who would like the kit Kat S5 or note4 look in place of the following:

AOSP Browser

AOSP Music

AOSP Calendar

AOSP Calculator

AOSP Keyboard with KitKat Emojis

AOSP Alarm Clock

AOSP Lockscreen

I could always work on this and if people like it then....

Thanks again man. Great work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DanDaGuitarMan:
Is Google Play Services crashing for anybody?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
Hell yes... didn't start til yesterday, I believe it's update related. Not rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdbowman:
Working fine for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JasonGeiger:
You can find the charger connection sound and dock sound in system/media/ui. They are named accordingly. Just add a .bak after the ogg file extension. Make sure you mount system in a root explorer. Doing this making the file type unknown so it won't play. To change it back just delete the .bak part of the file name.

I was unable to make calls with this rom. I could receive but when I tried to dial out nothing happened. No ringing sound and no one picking up.

Anybody having issues downloading the blue toggles/text odex 2.12? The page will not load fully for me.

Also, if you can DL it does it fix the no toggles/brightness slider issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wog81:
Soooo... What's the difference between odex and deodex... Any benefit to in running one over the other? Thx in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewjt19:
It's the way the system accesses and installs apps. It separates them into two different files and at boot up the files are pre-loaded making them less heavy on the memory during normal start of an app. De-odex keeps the files together and is easier to modify. I maybe somewhat off since it's been awhile that I looked at the difference. .. Do a Google search.

Trent

Is it normal for the boot up sequence to "Upgrading Android" at every boot up regardless of whether I go into recovery or not?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RomsWell:
I know you asked trent but try wiping dalvik and cache. let it repopulate everything once. See if it fixes it. No its not normal though. And maybe a fix perms for shiz and giggles.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
If You're On odex, Then Yes. It optimizes all apps upon reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andrewjt19:
Gotcha. .. I was figuring it isn't normal but thought maybe it was just something on my phone that was causing this. .. Sometimes animals anomalies happen with certain apps and ROMs. Thanks though I'll give a try

I've had a tough time getting this to flash. On latest Philz recovery, get a status 7 every time. Re-downloaded 4 times, twice from my phone, twice from a pc. Trying to flash the odex version.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Maybe I'll try TWRP, but I really like Philz, and as of now, seems to have the least amount of quirks. I'll just restore my Sophisticated backup and maybe revisit this in the future. I'm fairly confident I was doing everything correctly (unless anyone else can chime in), and this isn't my first rodeo. Looks like a great rom, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wolfeyes30:
Was getting status 7 errors on the latest Philz recovery. Switched back to Philz version 6.00.8 and it stopped. Ymmv
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kude87:
Ahh there we go, could be that. I'll give it a go and report back. Thank you.

Edit: It was indeed that. Switched to his build dated 12/31/13 and it flashed. Latest version seems to have issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] michigan66:
Mine crashes constantly. Uninstalling the update didn't help either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DanDaGuitarMan:
I had to go back to alliance for the time being. The crash was rendering GPS and maps useless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolestmage:
Yep. Had to uninstall updates to play services because it was crashing. Glad it isn't just me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mstrakt:
Yeah I thought it was my rom going crazy. How do I uninstall the updates to play services? I tried searching in the play store for play services lol. Found nothing.

Did that help stop the crashing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
If you'll select the play icon and drag up to app info it will be a box there that says uninstall update
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DanDaGuitarMan:
I tried this and the problem persisted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
I have minimized mine, I used rom toolbox, but I deleted play services and play store and downloaded the 6.1 google services.apk on one site, apk4fun but you should be able to search it.

At first it will give google.location closed and caused my phone to reboot but now it's much better, haven't had the error in 10 minutes or so

---------- Post added at 05:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 AM ----------

Note I did have to uninstall play services twice.

First was 50 or so mb, then it shrinked down to 26 and then it was gone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Is this ROM or Google services related? I had issues with services and hangouts at times using 4.4.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
Did you modify anything with the market when you did build 8?

I can uninstall the newest update and not get the message at all but all gapps make you update to use them. so I'm thinking it's update related but I'm not sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
No not that I can recall. If I recall, play store automatically updates itself no matter what so im sure it's a compatibility issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ohh_Trenton:
Update will change this. Are you stuck on SS?

I've done it earlier this year for my family & friends at a Verizon store and it worked for them. If you go to the right person, they will do it for you.

I think safestrap has to be updated for 4.4.2 right? If you're rooted, you can download the rom and take pieces out of the rom and place it in your system. (System/Framework, etc) I think that will work?

If you could work on this, I will totally get you your own OP posting. Let me know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
Yes sir... 4.3 :(

---------- Post added at 07:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 AM ----------

I'm gonna venture out to say it's update related. I just install play services 5.0.77 and no messages and I got my app syncing capabilities back, however youtube won't work without update. At least my phone is usable again though

---------- Post added at 07:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:07 AM ----------

Got youtube back uninstalled updates to it and updated play services manually to 5.0.8

Everything is working fine. So anyone having the issue with that just install version 5.0.8
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdbowman:
I'm thinking maybe the reason I haven't had issues is I always use team blackout apps. Playstore, hangouts, etc...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mstrakt:
Could you please share with is where u got play service update 5.0.8. I tried searching for it with no luck! Hopefully that can fix everyone's issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lilpeezy23:
It's definitely update related. Not on this ROM currently and mine was doing the same. Eventually it updated itself after a reboot and problems completely went away
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deejaydark:
So where is the link to this new build?

Hey dreamfx... anyway you can direct me to a working sdswap for 4.3

Beans Build 22
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DreamFX:
From the what I understand AGNi kernel is SD swap compatible. Not sure how to enable it though. As I don't use it. I'm far from knowledgeable on SD swap. I know what it is but that's about it. I wish I could be more helpful. I've seen your posts before. Maybe someone else can chime in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deejaydark:
Yeah I know about agni. Too bad I hear its swap for partition not like sdswap in beans 22 but thx for your help. Im trying this sdswap script for nebula mj9 to if it'll work on 4.3. If it does I'll let you know then I'll try it on this rom. I been on beans 22 for the longest for it's swap and smoothness along with better battery but thx again for trying :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Is there something wrong with the download link? I have been trying to download build 8 for the past hour and can only get up to about 90kb/s I have very high speed cable Internet and tried another rom just to make sure it wasn't my end. Does anyone have a mirror link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] coolestmage:
:)

Hehe, I've noticed a few changes on dev-host recently... I'll say no more!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dkool1:
Same here...Tried WiFi at work, data on phone, and WiFi at home. No go, will wait for Build 9.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RemnantKing2:
If that means what I think it means, then it means i'll be staying up late tonight :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dkool1:
Tried this morning and it finally downloaded. Currently running R3Ds Port S5 v3.5, will test this one and report any issues. I haven't had any GPS issues that others have reported with other ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Same here,gps has always worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jsadler09:
I started having the same issue with Google Play Services constantly stopping. I rebooted my phone and couldn't get it to boot. I wound up having to wipe and re-flash. I tried updating to the latest, immediately stopped working, so I uninstalled the updates and cleared the cache and it's been rock solid ever since. I'm downloaded Google Play Services 5.0.77 since I couldn't easily find 5.0.8, but it seems to have auto-updated to 6.something and the problem returned. Does anyone have a link to a stable version and a way to prevent it from auto-updating?

I just set the stock Email app back up (version 4.1) for Exchange Sync and i'm getting constant messages about unfortunate email has stopped. Anyone else seeing this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
http://www.apkreleases.com/2014/08/02/google-play-services-5089-apk-android-direct-download/

That's 5.0.8

I just installed it and advanced froze system update within the app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
Build 8? I'll give it another try later today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] bambamishere:
Yep
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mstrakt:
Thanks for the link! I tried installing it but it keeps failing. I uninstalled the updates first. Any thoughts? Also, how do you freeze system updates within google play? Only freezing I know is through titanium. Lol. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
You will need to uninstall the app it's self not just the update. And I use rom toolbox. I'm not even sure if tibu has advanced freezing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mstrakt:
Awesome. I did what you suggested and everything is fixed! No errors. No play store force close. GPS is working. Maps is not useless anymore. Haha. Thanks for your help.

For anyone interested:

APK's:

Play store: http://devfil.es/VLJ7QnhZ

Play services: http://devfil.es/V0T8V4Ee

I uninstalled the updates from play store. (Through App info)

Used rom toolbox to uninstall play store and play services

Installed the play store apk I downloaded. Followed by the play services (ver 5.0.8) I downloaded.

Vioala. Phone is usable again.

Hope this helps out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hggadm3:
You will also have to freeze updating, or it will take you back to square one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdbowman:
I haven't had any of those issues... Anyone else using team black out play store? It's the only way to go!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] glockman4519:
I still can't download this rom. Man I wish there was a better link for downloading. I've tried several times and download speeds are in kb/s and after several hours I get "download failed". I have Comcast high speed cable Internet too.

Oh well, I gave it a try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jsadler09:
Thanks, unfortunately this did not work for me. Started getting all sorts of has stopped errors. Like a dumbazz I decided to restart thinking it may help instead of restoring the previous versions of Play Store and Services, and it wouldn't boot. Had to reset and re-reflash.

---------- Post added at 09:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------

I haven't tried that yet, but am willing to at this point. Do you links to the version you're running? A search of the forum turned up a ton of results. Thanks in advance.
